Hall availability update - [latest news will appear here...]

Covid-19 Restrictions

With effect 15Apr22, the SA Government has dropped almost all COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, including the requirement for QR code tracing.  There is no further need for the nomination of a Covid Marshall and we have removed the need for hall hirers to sign a Covid-19 liability form. It is recommended that you continue to follow health advice and maintain social distancing and wash or sanitise your hands regularly.

Introduction

The Institute Hall is regularly hired for private functions such as Weddings, for both the ceremony and the reception, whether it be inside or outside in the lovely gardens.  Other popular choices for the hire of the One Tree Hill Institute are Engagements, Special Birthdays including Children’s Parties, Reunions, Group Meetings and Funeral Wakes.  Children’s Birthdays are very popular, especially since the spacious, sheltered, well-maintained playground is well equipped.  It is also fully enclosed, which ensures that children don’t wander off. There is also plenty of room inside for games and of course for food and your planned entertainment.  The Institute gardens are well maintained and are ideal for group photos for Weddings, Birthdays or any other special occasion.

The two main halls are used on the 1st Saturday of each month for the Country Market. The Institute has been beautifully maintained over the years; the main halls feature lovely timber floors, wrought iron candelabras (in the main hall) and seating for approximately 200 people. Tables and chairs are available for functions.  The fully equipped kitchen is very spacious with a commercial oven, microwave, two pie warmers, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and plenty of bench space for food preparation.

The main hall boasts it’s own very well equipped bar area with servery, a double and a triple glass door fridge and it’s own washing up facilities. There is a fully equipped Audio Visual system (with PA), which is compatible with computers and MP3 players. A microphone is available upon request.  Modern internal rest rooms are available along with a disability toilet and baby change room facilities.   Off street parking is available at the side and rear of the Hall.

The Institute is also available for hire for business, community and work events, such as seminars, meeting, trade shows, etc.  The One Tree Hill Institute offers competitive rates, please ring or email to view the Institute.  You are invited to arrange an inspection of the Institute to see if it will be suitable for your special occasion.    We can help make your next private function a great success.
