The multi-talented Gillian Schoenborn has embarked on a new venture to mark RCH’s twentieth anniversary - a written history of the Rushworth Community House.

Following an extremely successful 2008, Rushworth Community House’s Whroo Film Society has scheduled a highly entertaining season of classic flms for its monthly flm club “dinner and show” at the Rushworth Community House. Film Society organiser (and silver-screen guru) Terry Bower has assembled a mixture of comedies, dramas and light entertainment that is guaranteed to appeal to a wide range of viewers.

The season starts on 26 February with the 1983 British flm Local Hero. Other ...
