The Hawkesbury Finch Club is a branch of the Finch Society of Australia Inc. and has been established since 1986. Over the years we have had a few address changes, but for the last 10 years we have been settled at the Castlereagh Community Hall, Castlereagh Road, Castlereagh, near Penrith at the foot of the beautiful Blue Mountains. The club meets at 7.30pm on the fourth Wednesday of each month except December.

Our venue gives us plenty of off-road, secure parking in a relaxed rural setting. Our meetings usually attract 30-35 members. We are proud to be known as the friendly club due to our relaxed and fun attitude with the meetings an entertaining night. We have a newsletter called "Finch Bizz" (see below for more information), guest speakers, video and slide nights, as well as roping in our own members to give talks and everyone all join in.

So, if you are looking for a fun informative and enjoyable night, then come along to our club, take off your shoes and relax, have a cup of tea or coffee and bickie and enjoy.

Need to contact someone for more information? Then go to our Contact Us page for contact information and we will get back to you.
