On 10 March 2024 I had the opportunity to partake in the community Clean Up Australia Day held at Cabra-Vale Memorial Park. The event brought together numerous local youth groups and residents from our community, fostering a sense of collective responsibility toward preserving and enhancing our environment. Witnessing the enthusiasm and dedication of individuals coming together to care for their local area was truly inspiring, reaffirming the power of grassroots initiatives in effecting positive change. During the event, I had the privilege of presenting Certificates of Appreciation to commend the hard work and commitment of those involved in the clean-up efforts. It was wonderful to see their efforts acknowledged and celebrated, motivating them to continue their invaluable contributions to our community. I extend my deepest gratitude to Peter Thien Nguyen for his commendable organisation of the event, as well as to Mr Walter Robinson, Mr Michael Foulkes and the entire team at Cabra-Vale Diggers Club for their generous support and assistance.
