Loving this pic of Jack (bottom left hand side) and his older brother Chris (back 2nd from left) in an old school photo from Glenreagh Primary. He was only 7 years old and the youngest team member! Beautiful 🏑🏑🏑❤️❤️❤️

Here are the boys in the Glenreagh School hockey team that played in the 1980 Grafton winter competition. We don't know how they went during that competition, but we do know that hockey was a sport that was very dominant in the town for many years. The boys in this team are (L-R): Top row - Richard Ellem, Christopher Shipman, Larry McPherson, Ricky Schaeffer, Jason Bursle, Dallas Bursle; Bottom row - John Shipman, Daniel Berry, David Dart, Jason Ellem, Gary Robinson, Ken York. Perhaps those who were in this team can provide details on who their coach was and what they remember from this time. If you have a hockey photo from your time playing with a Glenreagh team, we would love to share this too. AccNr02004

❄️ A Winter’s Day at Tallowood Hill Farm ❄️

There really is something special about winter on the farm…

Crisp country mornings, mist rolling across the paddocks, horses rugged up for the day, puppies and kittens looking for cuddles, ducks happily wandering about, and peaceful moments that make you slow down and breathe.

Watch Gee proudly modelling his beautiful Earlwood Equine rug while enjoying another perfect winter’s day. 🐴🤍

After a day spent exploring the farm, there’s nothing better than settling in with a little baking, a warming glass of gin by the fire, and soaking up the quiet country atmosphere from your Tiny Cabin.

Whether you’re looking for a relaxing getaway, a chance to reconnect with nature, or simply a weekend where life moves at a gentler pace, winter is one of our favourite seasons here at Tallowood Hill Farm.

Come and experience it for yourself. We can’t wait to welcome you. 🤎
