Between 1922 and 1973 the Catholic Church operated a seminary at Werribee Park, in a combination of the original Mansion and new purpose built additions. One of these buildings was St Joseph’s Wing, which is now occupied by Mansion Hotel & Spa at Werribee Park. The State Government purchased this unique property in 1973 to ensure its preservation and restoration, and it opened as a historical tourist attraction managed by Parks Victoria in 1977. Visitors can step into the beautifully restored 60 room Italianate mansion of the Victorian era. Visitors can take a self guided tour of the mansion and outbuildings or with an audio handset telling the history and stories behind each room. Formal Gardens Explore the 10 hectares of historic formal gardens including registered century old trees, colourful parterre, ornamental lake and one of Australia’s last surviving grottos. Victoria State Rose Garden Spend some time smelling the 5,500 roses in the 5 hectare Tudor Rose shaped garden. Roses are in bloom from November to April. Original Farmyard Take a stroll to the farm area. Rustic bluestone outbuildings, once abuzz with workers and activity, provide a stark contrast to the elaborate craftsmanship of the Chirnside Mansion. Riverine Area The riverine is a natural and cultural treasure. Koori history along Wirribi Yaluk, known today as Werribee River, dates back over 40,000 years with acknowledged cultural heritage sites providing an insight into the Wurundjeri people and their relationship with mother earth.

    Vol 57 Page 14 Appy Reunion. On Saturday, the 21st January, a bunch of Ex-RAAF Apprentices, along with their ladies, got together at the Werribee RSL Club for a few beers, a catch-up with old mates and a promise to do it all again in 12 months’ time. This was the 43rd time they had got together and as usual, it was organised by Barry Hillsley and Graeme Oxley. Phil “Dick” Tracy (right) did the PR work. The get together wasn’t just for the blokes from Wagga either as we spotted a few blokes who had survived Appy-land at Laverton. The only requirement to attend was you had to be an Ex- RAAF Appy, age, rank or mustering was not in question as there were blokes there from early courses, 4 Appy (Dewdrops Dec 1952) right up to 35 Appy (Rodents March 1983). These get togethers started many years ago as an informal couple of drinks in some-one’s garage and over the years as more and more people attended it grew into the event we experienced over the weekend. For some years now it has been held at the Werribee RSL Club. The Werribee RSL Sub- Branch, which was formed in 1919, holds the liquor licence for the premises and operates the social club itself. Some years ago, the Committee realised the need and employed a professional manager to operate the Club and over the years there have been many improvements and additions to the building. It now provides a fully licenced bar, a pokies room, TAB, Keno, a full kitchen and dining room, a billiard room and function facilities.
