Government House open day on Australia Day January 26 – 12 noon to 6pm.
Government House is open to the public tomorrow Australia Day for a free fun and family day from 12 noon to 6pm – the Royal Automobile Club displaying a collection of rare vintage and classic cars. So please come and join us on this special day and enjoy a self-guided tour of the house and the magnificent gardens leading down to Sydney Harbour. Bring a picnic lunch or support Normanhurst Boy Scouts sausage sizzle. Importantly, arriving at noon after an epic drive from London in a 1925 Bean tourer is Daily Telegraph Cartoonist Warren Brown and Editor at Large Matthew Benns – the duo in the final stages of re-enacting the 26,000km odyssey by adventurer Francis Birtles in 1927 in a similar model Bean.
