SUMMARY:Monthly Activity - Heritage Post Office Tour: Fullerton Hotel (Waitlist)
DESCRIPTION:Dear Monthly Activists \nThis month we will visit the Fullerton Hotel at Martin Place for their Heritage Tour where the resident guide will journey with us\, delving into the vibrant history and culture of Sydney’s former General Post Office \nThe Sydney General Post Office (GPO) was constructed in two stages\, beginning in 1866 and designed under the guidance of colonial architect James Barnet.

In 1891\, the clock tower was finally completed\, and the bells rang out across Sydney for the first time. \nDelve into the vibrant history and culture of Sydney’s former GPO\,  and let our resident tour guide bring you on a journey through time on the GPO Heritage Tour\, to discover the stories\, tales and legends of the city’s iconic Grand Dame. \nDATE: Thursday 28 March 2024 \nTIME: 11.45am – 1.15pm VENUE: Fullerton Hotel\, Martin Place\, Sydney.\nMeet at the Concierge Desk 10 minutes prior \nCOST: $20.00 \nRSVP TO: swic.activitymonthly@gmail.com\nPlease add your phone number and the name of the outing: Fullerton Heritage Tour\nCaren Trafford\, Monthly Activity Organiser \nRSVP BY: Thursday 21st March 2024 to Caren Trafford \nPlease note: there are only 15 places\, so book early
