Unfortunately, the New Residents Function that was scheduled for September 2021 has now been cancelled due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions. For those who had signed up to attend the 2021 event, Council will be in touch with some useful resources to help get you settled in the area.
We hope to bring you our New Residents Function in 2022 to officially welcome all of our new residents, so please check this page in the new year for event details.
Once a year Council invite new residents who have moved to the Greater Hamilton region in the past 12 months to meet other newcomers at the Council’s New Residents function. The night is an informal gathering to extend a warm welcome to new residents, with a variety of information available to assist in settling into the community and our region. The night usually includes a speech from the Mayor and the serving of light refreshments.
Community groups and sporting clubs from across the Shire are also invited to provide information to new residents about their group.
If your are a new resident, group or club who would like to attend the next function (date/place to be confirmed), please contact Council's Customer Service on 03 5573 0444 or council@sthgrampians.vic.gov.au to be placed on our register.
