At the foot of Australia's highest peaks, there is Khancoban. It's a place built twice - first by cattlemen chasing fresh alpine pastures, then by workers blasting tunnels through solid rock and bending water to the will of a nation. This is country of purpose, shaped by endurance. ⁠
⁠
Khancoban by RB Sellars - coming soon. ⁠⁠

Kokoda Trek

Every two years, the Tumbarumba Rotary Club organises a group of leaders to es**rt 15 to 17 year old students on the Kokoda Trail.

This tradition, initiated 25 years ago by Bruce Wright OAM with the assistance of others, notably Grant Harris, continues to thrive.

During the recent school holidays, the trek took place and all participants returned following a successful and particularly enjoyable experience .

Bruce presented certificates to the students and leaders congratulating all on this massive achievement . Thank you to all involved
