About Us

Yallourn Association - sharing history with the community.

Join our Association and journey back with us to the old township of Yallourn in Latrobe Valley, Victoria – a unique town built between the 1920s and 1950s by the State Electricity Commission of Victoria (SECV) to house their workers and then dug up by the same SECV for the coal beneath in the 1980s.

We print and distribute two newsletters per year, full of wonderful stories, memories, photos etc and all the details of our annual reunions.

Our reunions are held in March each year – alternating between a sit-down lunch one year, usually held at the Morwell RSL Club and the next year, a more casual affair held at Woorabinda School Camp on Lake Narracan, where accommodation is available for the Saturday night.
