Sunshine Coast Council today (25 February) endorsed a 10-year heritage plan to protect and engage our residents and visitors in the region’s cultural heritage.

As settlements began to grow in the region residents called for the erection of a public hall – referred to as a ‘School of Arts Hall’ to provide the town with a place of amusement and a place for meetings to be held.

If you’ve never stepped back into the fascinating world of Sunshine Coast yester-year, now is the time, with the launch of a video that will give you a taste of some of the region’s cultural heritage highlights.

Many visitors to the Sunshine Coast region have special memories of camping holidays, of tents lining the coastal reserves and wonderful sunny days with children playing together in the sand, swimming in the waves and riding their boards in to rest on the soft golden sand.

There are plenty of opportunities available to volunteer at Bankfoot House Heritage Precinct in the Glasshouse Mountains where weekend Visitor Experience Guides are needed.

It’s Christmas time once again and with this comes excitement, joy and the inevitable stress. The shops are crowded, roads are busy, and children are excited.

Sunshine Coast Council has a plan to preserve the region’s heritage and is inviting the community to have their say.
