Talking about ...

Talking AboutTalking abouts ... are a chance to engage with like-minded others through questions, answers, and discussion. Do you want to learn more about one of these avenues? Have you already used them? Can you suggest another avenue? Come along and share your experiences. This broad discussion of the avenues open to us and your interests may lead to further Education events.

A "Talking About" session is a discussion group where everyone is given the opportunity to contribute by sharing their knowledge and experience, through asking questions and/or giving opinions and answers. It is not a presentation. It is open to all levels of experience; no question is too silly to ask. Although under the Members Lounge umbrella, the "Talking About" events are not exclusive to members of QFHS.

Recreation - sport, picnics, concerts
Business - industry, land development, farming, and mining

How did the war effort and the embargoes on German imports interweave with everyday life?
Please bring along your stories of Australia at this time to share over a cup of coffee.
