Due to the weather forecast predicting heavy rain and thunderstorms on Friday 29 November, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our annual Light the Tree event to Friday 13 December.
Hosted by Local Studies Librarian, Andrew Allen, listen to historian and teacher Lauren Hokin as she discusses the moving experiences of our local troops and nurses in World War I.
The Great War had a profound impact on Campbelltown. Join author Lauren Hokin as she transports us back to the trenches and what conditions were like for our brave men at the front and nurses behind the lines. The tragic accounts of various local families are also revealed, including Campbelltown’s own “Saving Private Ryan” story.
