Oatley West Public School, Nature Play Space Project

Monday, 26 October 2020

Mr Speaker, I was thrilled to recently announce funding for a great local school in my electorate, Oatley West Public School. Oatley West is colloquially known as 'The School by the Park', which is certainly no exaggeration. The campus is situated against a beautiful, leafy, Oatley Park backdrop.

Vaughn- Sydney Dogs and Cats Home

Friday, 23 October 2020

I take this opportunity to introduce to every member of this House an amazing young local legend, Vaughn, who is collecting bottles to donate through the return and earn machines. He is donating the funds directly to the Sydney Dogs and Cats Home. While last week I did not have any bottles to donate, it was a real honour to donate some money to Vaughn's drive. I thank Vaughn for his amazing effort.

Speaker, I rise to congratulate the St George Brass Band on their top performance at the 2019 Band Association of NSW's Solo and Party Championships.
