Happy Easter

I just wanted to take the time to wish you and your family a happy Easter. Easter is a time for hope and renewal and for families to come together and celebrate. Please enjoy your holidays and stay safe on the roads if you are travelling.

ANZAC Day Services

ANZAC Day is our chance to let our servicemen and women – past and present – know that their service and sacrifice is remembered, appreciated and honoured.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the end of Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam war. Between 1962 and 1972 almost 60,000 Australians served in the conflict, and we pay our respects to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice as well as those veterans’ still with us, many of whom continue to bear the wounds seen and unseen.

We must never repeat the mistakes of our past by disrespecting and mistreating the men and women who proudly wear the uniform in defence of our flag, values and country.

The Biggest Survey

Thank you to everyone who completed my ‘Biggest Survey’ either by post or online. Your feedback will help me to better understand your needs, priorities and what’s important to you and our community.
