Goomalling
Goomalling township is situated in the Central Wheat belt area of Western Australia, 132km north east of Perth.
The name was derived from the Koomal Possum which inhabited the area in abundance when the district was first established. Now known as 'Place of the silver grey possum.' Goomalling was also called 'Coomarin' or 'Coomallyn'. The current name was first used by Alfred Hillman in 1846.
The present population of the Shire (as opposed to just the town) is approximately 1200. The district produces several varieties of wheat, lupins, wool, beef, cattle, pigs, fat lambs etc.
The Goomalling Historical Society has placed sign posts on the old school sites within the Shire - many can be spotted on the road verges.
Information of the local heritage trail is available from the Telecentre or Caravan Park. The walk points out places of historical significance around the town site of Goomalling.
Although only a small town with limited shopping facilities, Goomalling is a very nice place to stop and relax for a few days and it is fortunate in being at the centre of a number of other towns that can be reached in a series of days trips.
Suggested day trips from Goomalling:
1. From Goomalling you can head north to Wongan Hills and then travel east to Cadoux, south to Dowerin and back to your starting point.
2. Travel south west to Toodyay and then you can chose to go south to Clackline, then follow the Great Eastern Highway either west to Chidlow and north to Noble Falls before returning via Toodyay again, or you can turn east to Northam and then north to Jennacubbine and back to Goomalling.
3. The last tour is south east to Meckering then along the Great Eastern Highway through Cunderdin and Tammin and nearby Hunt's Well before turning north to Wyalkatchem and then returning via Dowerin.
Each of these trips is on sealed roads and will take you to a number of interesting places and covers a wide range of different terrain, ranging from thick forest around Chidlow to salt lake country near Cadoux and along the Goldfields Water Scheme.
The caravan park is one of the best shire parks in the state and is run by a very friendly and helpful couple. There is also an excellent hardware store just over the railway line (on the Dowerin road) which is (in general) cheaper than the hardware stores in Northam.
Goomalling is a wonderful example of good old fashioned country hospitality and town pride.

Goomalling Sports Pavilion
Design, manufacture and install a new kitchen, bar and supporting refrigeration in the new sports pavilion in the country town of Goomalling to be used for sporting events and functions on a semi regular basis.
Utilising our in house expertise in refrigeration, stainless steel fabrication and kitchen design and in consultation with both the Architect and the end user, Arcus were able to design a kitchen and bar that served both the pre defined objectives. Utilising our own in house project management and site team we were able to design, manufacture and install all the stainless items and refrigeration.
For this project and for the major equipment we used the brands Waldorf, Convotherm and Washtech, the reason for this selection was not just their excellent design and build quality, but also their simple to use features and excellent service back up with the last two being especially important given the location 150km outside of Perth.
For the smaller bench top items we used Woodson, Roband and Bonn, the 2 door display chiller and 2 door freezer in the kitchen were from Skope and the ice machines were Ice-O-Matic.
Goomalling Sporting Complex
The new 625m2 Pavilion building is based around a large function area that has expansive verandah areas that provide views to the existing sporting field and new bowling green. The Commercial Kitchen, Ablution Facilities, Meeting Room, Storage Options, Digital Display and AV Equipment will provide this community a central Hub for the Mortlock Sporting Council and a function room for the Goomalling Shire.
