The Island Storytellers Festival is happening 3-5 October. Events are taking place at Lamb, Coochiemudlo and North Stradbroke islands, as well as on a ferry going between.

Deborah Jordan who spoke recently at ASHG on women’s suffrage will be launching her new book aboard the ferry on Sunday afternoon.

This festival is such an imaginative way to take advantage of the island geography. Check out the program:

Celebrate literature in the southern Moreton Bay Islands at the Island Storytellers Writers & Readers Festival on Ngdjuru/ Lamb Island, featuring local, regional and national writers, poets, lyricists and comedians of renown.

Thank you Judith Anderson for a fascinating talk about some of the people left their mark on Qld’s Government House. We were all intrigued by the stories of Johann Heussler who the house was initially built for in the 1860s and John Stevenson who later bought it. We heard of dreams of what is possible and fortunes made and lost.

Judith was an entertaining and knowledgeable speaker enjoyed by all.

I came across this display at the Museum of Brisbane today from QRL - Queensland Rugby League History Committee. https://www.qrl.com.au/about/history/

I’m sure they will have information and artefacts for our ASHG Sports History project. Be fabulous to have an article from QRL on the Southside Sports History book we are compiling.
