BAT WATCH PICNIC
Next Bat Watch Picnic – 6 March 2026
The Bat Watch Picnic is an event held at Turrella Reserve, typically in March during Australasian Bat Month.
This is a great family event, and an opportunity to see one of the great ‘urban David Attenborough moments’, as thousands of Grey-headed Flying-foxes stream out from their roosting camp beside Wolli Creek. It is an opportunity to enjoy an early evening picnic with family and friends, and to view and learn more about these fascinating endangered native mammals.
If you would like to volunteer to help with activities associated with the picnic, we’d love to hear from you. Email us at info@wollicreek.org.au.
See details of all our upcoming events below. Further details will be published here when available.
ANNUAL DINNER
Recent dinner – Thursday 16 October 2025 from 6.30pm
Our annual dinner is usually held in October. It’s an opportunity for members to come together, enjoy a meal and listen to an interesting guest speaker. It’s also an important fundraising event for WCPS and includes a multi-prize raffle and silent auction.
For those of you who missed last year’s popular Annual Dinner at the Bardwell Valley Golfclub, or those who might like to see it again, we have put a video of speaker Taylor Coyne’s informative talk up online:
Badlands: Swamps, Stormwater, and the Struggles of Urban Nature

BUSHCARE TURRELLA SUN 7 JUNE
If you have not come to Bushcare before or can’t get to the weekday sessions, please join us on Sunday 14th June and find out what it is all about at our site at Turrella.
We will be removing weedy vines that threaten the trees along the creek. It’s an opportunity for some outdoor exercise while helping the environment. We’ll show you the vines and other weeds and how we remove them. No previous experience is needed. If you don’t want to come alone, bring along a friend.
Along with the usual essentials of long-sleeved shirt, long trousers, sturdy shoes and hat please bring along your own pair of gardening gloves and something to eat and drink for the all-important morning tea.
We will meet at the foot bridge at Turrella Reserve at 9 am and work until 12 noon, with a break for morning tea. It’s a short walk from Turrella station and there is parking at Finlays Avenue on the Earlwood side and Henderson Street in Turrella.
Please contact Maggie Aitken, (text 0404 429 005 or email; maggieannie23@gmail.com) to let her know that you’ll be coming along or if you have any questions.
See you there!
