About Us: The Bunyip, based in Gawler on the northern fringe of
metropolitan Adelaide, is growing rapidly as the district
experiences a massive population and housing boom.
Favoured by city commuters, Gawler boasts
???the best of town and country???.
The Gawler region retains its country feel, with a wide spread
farming community and is the gateway town to the famous
Barossa Valley wine region - also experiencing huge growth.
There is an urban feel to the town, but Gawler remains a
major regional commercial centre with large shopping centres
throughout the district and an extensive educational system.
A focus on equine-related pursuits ??? including thoroughbred
racing, harness racing and leisure-based activities on local
hobby farms ??? complements the many sporting clubs.
The Bunyip, one of SA's oldest newspapers, was founded
in 1863.

Newspaper Name : The Advertiser Adelaide
About Us: Circulation figures reported in May 2016 by Roy Morgan Research showed a continuing decline in readership, of 324,000 on weekdays, and 371,000 on Saturdays.
When the first edition of The Advertiser rolled off the presses on July 12, 1858, the settlement of South Australia was only 22 years old.
Back then it was called The South Australian Advertiser and consisted of four pages, each of seven columns, and sold for four pence. It was edited, managed and published by Reverend John Henry Barrow.
So much has changed since then, but for more than 160 years The Advertiser has been engrained in the roots of South Australia and its people. We have covered our state's triumphs and tragedies, heroes and scandals.
As the internet and social media transform the way the world connects and shares information, we have expanded from a daily newspaper to a 24/7 news publishing powerhouse with an audience that spans the globe.
The way we share our journalism may have changed but one thing never will ??? our commitment to providing South Australia's best news coverage, and being a crusading voice for the interests of our state and its people.
