The winter months have certainly been busy ones at Tobruk House. Alongside our fortnightly Sunday open days showcasing our 85 siege items, we have also welcomed a group from Mansfield RSL and even a large group of recruits from Watsonia Barracks, who came to explore our hall and learn about the siege history. We have been thrilled to have had hundreds of visitors to the hall since the exhibition opening in May.

A reminder, however, that the 85 for 85 exhibition closes on Sunday 15 November, so if you haven’t yet had a chance to see it, there is still time! Check Upcoming Events for the additional dates.

But we’re not slowing down just yet! We’re delighted to announce a very special one-day conference devoted to the Siege of Tobruk, to be held at Tobruk House on Saturday 14 November. You can find out more and make a booking by turning to page 10 of our newsletter, The Tobruk House News.

And with Christmas fast approaching, it’s time to mark your calendar for our traditional Christmas party on Sunday 6 December, when we’ll come together to celebrate the year and enjoy one another’s company. For details, please see page 11 of the Tobruk House News.
