Winery Tour – Petersons Winery

Petersons Wines Armidale is located in the South East of Armidale in New England, on a rich, red brown basalt hill facing to the north east, and is planted with Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir. The first harvest was in 2002.

Complimentary coach transport will be provided. Bookings are essential and must be indicated on the registration form.

Conference Dinner

The timeless ambience of The Booloominbah Collection makes it an ideal venue for the Conference Dinner to be held on Thursday, 22 September. Booloominbah (or 'Bool' as it is commonly known) is a fine old house, designed by Horbury Hunt, one of Australia's foremost colonial architects. It was donated to UNE by the White family as part of the move to establish a university in the New England region. The building contains some fine and special architectural features.

Cost for the dinner is $78.00 per person. Partners and friends are most welcome to join us. Bookings must be made on the Registration form.
