Tieri is a vibrant mining town supporting the nearby Oaky Creek coal mine.
The town’s Aquatic Centre is built around an Olympic size swimming pool and shallow wading pool.
The colourful lorikeet is a true local in Tieri but you’ll also easily spot galahs and cockatoos too!

Point of Interest: Streets in the town centre are named after cattle stations that originally surrounded the town.
