About our shed
About Us
We moved into our new premises near the Rec Centre oval about two years ago.
We meet for morning tea and a yarn every Monday morning from 9.15 am onwards.
Meetings are held each first Monday of the month at 5pm.
We hold a social gathering each third Monday of the month at 5pm.
We currently have about 60 members from all walks of life.
Shed Activities
Woodwork and metal workshop, Gardening, Containers for Change, Men’s Shed Band, Model Ford T restoration
We organise an annual October Fest and/or Easter Fair
We provide a ‘Rest in Reef’ service. The ashes of a loved one are mixed into the concrete of a reef ball, which is lowered into the sea by our volunteers in attendance of the family.

Positive impacts
The Australian Men’s Shed Association (AMSA) is the national service provider supporting more than 1,200 Men’s, Women’s and Community Sheds and is recognised as one of Australia’s largest male-based community development organisations.
AMSA was established in 2007 by a collection of Australian independent community-based Men’s Sheds to represent, support and promote the Men’s Shed movement. It was founded on the principle of sharing information between sheds and those communities wishing to establish and operate a Men’s Shed. It acts as a central hub for information exchange.
