Congratulations to all our award recipients in Cabonne whose commitment and input to our communities was recognised on Friday for Australia Day.

Australia Day gives us an opportunity to celebrate how fortunate we are to live in this nation, and particularly in the Cabonne Shire.
There were 32 awards handed out at Australia Day celebrations across the Cabonne shire on Friday, 26 January 2024. There was also a Citizenship Ceremony held in Cudal, where two new citizens officially made Cabonne and Australia their home!
