25.01.2022 8 Sleeps by my counting until our train event, but adding up was never a talent for me I have just created a Kid's Corner on our website to prepare your little ones for their visit to the trains. Let me know if you have any good kid friendly activity links and I will put them up for all to share. By the way, Kneebouncers is our family's favourite! https://www.ndmes.org.au/welcome/kids-corner/

23.01.2022 Dear patrons, Do you have an interest in miniature model engineering? Would you like to join our Club. We need people who are prepared to help with the run days and maintenance days on Saturday and Tuesday mornings. Our Club membership is aging and we do need more young people, or people who are able and willing to give a hand. If you are interested please contact [email protected]

Follow us or our website for up to date information. However, we have been busy keeping our little railway station beautiful and the gardens lush in readiness for your familys return to our club.

03.01.2022 Regrettably the Committee of the Club has decided to cancel the forthcoming Public Run Day on Sunday the 29th of March, and all future run days for the foreseeable future during the Corona virus pandemic. Those of you who have booked birthday parties will be contacted by our birthday party manager Paul. Keep your family safe, especially your elder relatives, who are the most vulnerable during this crisis. The Stirling Miniature Railway team.

Our members have met about this issue and have decided to open on the 29th March. However, we may be required to close if the Government or the Council ban meetings of more than a 100 people. If there are any further developments then we will give an announcement on this, and our other Facebook pages and also on our website at ndmes.org.au.
