Bellarine Agricultural Show

Happy National Volunteer Week! 💚

This year’s theme, “Your Year to Volunteer,” is a celebration of the people who give their time, skills and heart to help communities thrive.

At the Bellarine Agricultural Show, our volunteers are the backbone of everything we do — from setting up pavilions and stewarding competitions to welcoming visitors and keeping traditions alive. We simply couldn’t do it without you.

Thank you to every volunteer, past and present, for being part of our show community. 🌾✨

If you’ve ever thought about getting involved, maybe this is your year to volunteer!

Safe to say… the big machines stole the show! 😄🚜

There’s nothing quite like seeing kids experience country life for the first time 💛
These shiny machines were a huge hit, with lots of wide eyes and excited “oohs” and “aahs” 🚜✨

Thanks to Batesford Quarry, Customized Spreading and Sloan Ag Rural Fencing for bringing the wow factor! 🛻 🌟

A big thank you to Port Arts Network and Hendley Ridge Wines for sponsoring and supporting our art show. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Congratulations to PNH office volunteer and member Diane Chaffers for winning first prize in the Bellarine Agricultural Show art competition. This year's artworks were to reflect the theme The Shed and/or The Dog, and Diane's winning painting is of her late dog Jasper (top right). The painting beneath Jasper is also Diane's work. What a talented artist!

Congratulations Homestyle Aged Care Sea Views Manor on winning the Joan Golding OAM Perpetual Trophy. 🏆 👏🏼

Residents of Homestyle Sea Views Manor are incredibly proud to have been awarded the Joan Holding OAM Perpetual Trophy for Most Points, after taking out first place in the Aged Care Art & Craft section at the Bellarine Agricultural Show over the Labour Day long weekend.

This year marked the 32nd show held in Portarlington, a wonderful celebration of country life where the community comes together to share the best of the Bellarine.

Beautiful artwork and handcrafted pieces created by residents were proudly displayed among the many creative and agricultural exhibits, with their talents and dedication truly shining through. Sea Views Manor will proudly display the trophy for the next 12 months.
