Why are older Australians being asked to pay the price for government budget fixes? This week, I joined National Seniors Australia in their campaign against the Government's planned cuts to private health insurance rebates for people aged 65 and over. Three million older Australians, including more than 400,000 age pensioners, are potentially affected by this change.
Our seniors worked hard to build this country and treating them like a revenue source is wrong. We need a fair go for our older generations.

Our community is grateful for the SA Country Fire Service brigades across Mayo.
I’ve been honoured to recently attend the official unveiling of the Woodside CFS Mural, the Upper Sturt CFS Brigade’s 70th anniversary and the 80th milestone of the Nairne Country Fire Service.
The dedication of our CFS volunteers is remarkable.

Creating opportunities for people with disabilities to develop confidence and practical skills benefits our whole community.
The new Mini Woolies at Hills Housing and Disability Services in Mount Barker is a simulated supermarket where participants can build skills in literacy, numeracy, technology and customer service in a safe and supported space.
It was a pleasure to attend today's official opening and see firsthand the positive impact of this program.
Congratulations to HHDS and Woolworths on this initiative, and for creating more inclusive opportunities for people with a disability in our community.

From the Adelaide Hills to the world!
Proud to see South Australian company Aerotech Australia supporting French emergency crews fighting wildfires in Bordeaux.
Aerotech contracts four aircraft and personnel overseas during the French fire season, bringing world-class SA bushfire response technology to the global stage.
It was a pleasure meeting CEO Chris Boyd earlier this year to learn more about their life-saving work both abroad and at home.

Today the magnificent Woodside CFS building mural by renowned artist Taylor-Jay was officially opened. The Woodside CFS began over 85 years ago back in 1940. It’s extraordinary to think at a time when so many of our young men were overseas in WWII that the folk of the town got together to create a firefighting crew. For generations the men and women of the Woodside CFS have run to danger to protect us all. It was this sentiment and history that Taylor-Jay has so beautifully created into public art for us all to share.

What a fabulous project to preserve the history of our Woodside Barracks.Share Your Woodside Barracks Story
Our Extension History students are embarking on a semester-long research project exploring the history and significance of the Woodside Barracks and its impact on the Adelaide Hills community.
As part of their research, students are seeking to connect with community members who have a personal connection to the barracks. This could include:
• Former service personnel who trained at Woodside Barracks
• Families who relocated to the area due to military service
• Individuals or families connected to the barracks through immigration
• Anyone with memories, photographs, stories or experiences to share
Please contact Lily.Thomas661@schools.sa.edu.au to get involved.
