A gift evening was held for Maude Parr and Jim Hurst and their wedding soon after. The hall was also the local picture theatre for many years. St George's was also used as a temporary schoolroom, first in 1929 and again in 1938. - Since 1994 Anglican services have regularly been held and have continued to this day.
