Premiers<\/p>\n

I don’t know about you, but I’m still celebrating Geelong’s Grand Final win \u2013 and plan to do so for some time!<\/p>\n

Last week’s decisive victory was a pure triumph for our region and will bring us joy for years to come.<\/p>\n

I’ve been a Cats supporter since I was seven years old and some readers might recall my favourite heroes from when I was a kid: Norm Sharp, Peter Pianto, Bob Gazzard and Fred Le Deux.<\/p>\n

Fred was actually my former school teacher who facilitated our learn to swim campaign.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to the Cats on bringing the cup back home!<\/p>\n

Remembering those who served<\/em><\/p>\n

Recently, I had the honour of attending a dedication service at St Helens Park in North Geelong.<\/p>\n

Veterans converged on the Malaya Borneo memorial there, which has been refurbished recently and peacefully overlooks the Corio Bay.<\/p>\n

The memorial commemorates the Malayan Campaign (1941-1942), the Battle of Singapore (1942), the Malayan Emergency (1948-1960), and the Indonesian Confrontation (1963- 1966).<\/p>\n

I think it’s fair to say that there is more awareness of other wars in Australia’s history, than these conflicts.<\/p>\n

Would you believe that more than 10,000 Australians served in these conflicts, including community members from our region?<\/p>\n

The Malayan Emergency was one of the longest continuing military commitments in Australian history.<\/p>\n

I’m thrilled that this memorial has been upgraded, so that we can increase understanding of the sacrifices that these defence personnel made.<\/p>\n

As part of the works, the City team consolidated the memorial’s original plaques into the groundwork and onto three new pillars.<\/p>\n

The new garden beds and retaining walls, and associated landscaping around the existing rotunda, make the space welcoming.<\/p>\n

The original signage and flagpoles were also replaced to replicate the original memorial.<\/p>\n

Council was proud to contribute $20,000 and I thank the Australian Government for its $10,000 in funding through the Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program.<\/p>\n

It was an honour to speak with the Malaya Borneo veterans that day and to hear firsthand of their experiences.<\/p>\n

I told them that the memorial will carry their stories and legacy into the future, for younger generations to learn from.<\/p>\n

I hope this memorial will continue to be a place to pause and reflect for them and their families.<\/p>\n

Our community has every reason to be proud of the Malaya Borneo veterans’ contributions.<\/p>\n

Equality in Greater Geelong<\/em><\/p>\n

Another event I was proud to attend was the City’s launch of its Gender Equality Action Plan last week.<\/p>\n

The plan was created following the introduction of the Victorian Government’s Gender Equality Act 2020 and applies a gender inclusive lens to internal City processes, how policies are created and programs and services that are delivered for the community.<\/p>\n

Dr Niki Vincent, Commissioner for Gender Equality in the Public Sector spoke engagingly about how these plans can provide a guide to develop, implement and monitor actions that support all community members.<\/p>\n

Everyone across Greater Geelong should have the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling life, and the adoption of this action plan can play a part in making that a reality.<\/p>\n

We want every person to have the same access to programs, services and leadership opportunities.<\/p>\n

I’m looking forward to seeing this action plan, in action!<\/p>\n

Reconnect with nature<\/em><\/p>\n

As chair of council’s Environment portfolio, it would be remiss of me not to reference the recent 2021 State of Environment report, which highlighted the dire threats facing Australia’s biodiversity.<\/p>\n

A five-yearly review by scientists found at least 19 ecosystems are displaying signs of collapse or near collapse, and Australia has lost more species to extinction than any other continent.<\/p>\n

In light of this report, the annual Geelong Nature Month (now underway) is the perfect opportunity to shine a spotlight on our rivers, wetlands and nature reserves.<\/p>\n

Mother Nature has given us many diverse natural landscapes on the Bellarine and further afield in the broader Geelong region to choose from!<\/p>\n

There are multiple activities, tours and planting sessions that will increase awareness about our environment and empower community members to take action.<\/p>\n

Check out the program here: geelong.link\/NatureMonth<\/a><\/p>\n

Exploring nature can sometimes take a backseat when life gets busy, so I encourage readers to set aside some time to bird watch, learn about our unique biodiversity or connect with flora and fauna in your own special way.<\/p>\n

With these lovely Spring days back on the agenda, I can assure you that it will do you a world of good.<\/p>\n
