"Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing, that we see too late the one that is open."
Alexander Graham Bell
1847-1922, Inventor
"Mind is the Master power that moulds and makes,
and man is mind, and evermore he takes the Tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills,
Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills.
He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:
Environment is but his looking-glass." James Allen, As a Man Thinketh

Hopetoun in Western Australia is a great place to be in Summer. Have a look at the LivinginHopetoun calendar for an up-to-date event calendar. Watch this space for details and specials!
Hopetoun is situated in Western Australia, on the southern shores between Albany (300km) and Esperance (200km). It is a 6 hour drive from Perth, or just over an hour's flight on National Jet from Perth to Ravensthorpe Airport. The Fitzgerald National Park is 10km from the town's centre and has magnificent beaches, wildflowers and rugged cliffs.
Enjoy this website, it has been created to make your time in Hopetoun more enjoyable! Make the most of every visiting play, workshop, speaker - by joining in, you will feel as if you belong in the community. When you feel ready, there are plenty of community groups looking for volunteers to help with school, the aged, functions, Sea Rescue or meals-on-wheels. Those that really enjoy their time here have made the effort to step out of their home, out of their comfort zone and volunteer - the choice is yours! If you are one of those families that may be leaving in the next few months, we encourage you to make the most of the great coastline and safe town.
The farewell concert on Sunday evening was a lovely affair, with Mandala providing music, along with the Ravensthorpe Hopetoun Choir. The Choir sang "Siyahamba" which is a hymn in Zulu (South African language) - which, while directly translated is "Walking in the light", the verb "uhamba" is used as "you are leaving" which was very appropriate to those leaving Hopetoun in the next few months. Thanks to Sue Leighton and all concerned for organising such a wonderful evening.
Some people think that Hopetoun is spelt Hopetown!
