Did you know that steps were recently installed at the Golden Square Pool, making it easier for everyone to get in and out of the water? 🏊‍♀️

The old ladder is tricky for many visitors – and even stopped some from coming altogether – so this upgrade was a real win for accessibility and inclusion! ☺️

“Swimmers of all types can enter the pool - elderly, arthritic, expectant mothers, young learners or anyone who is uncomfortable with, or has difficulty using traditional vertical swimming pool ladders,” reported the Committee of Management.

“At Golden Square Pool, we’re committed to making our pool as welcoming and accessible as possible. We have many challenges to overcome that are a legacy of when the pool was built - but we are doing our best every single year to address them.”

Who remembers the old Marong Village shopping centre in High Street, Kangaroo Flat? 🏪

Back when it was built, it had a local heartbeat – named after the former Shire of Marong, which included Kangaroo Flat. Over the years, it became Lansell Plaza, then Centro Lansell – and now goes by Lansell Square. ⏹️

These days, it’s owned by Charter Hall, whose biggest shareholders are global giants Vanguard, State Street, and BlackRock – the trio that own practically half the earth! 💰

It was just after 6pm on Sunday when a savage assault unfolded in the Lansell Square carpark at Kangaroo Flat – the kind of place you expect trolley wheels squeaking, not someone bleeding on the asphalt.

A 44-year-old man from Elphinstone was found brutally bashed and barely conscious. Paramedics worked desperately before rushing him to hospital, where he remains with serious injuries.

Coppers say a group of teens set on him before scattering into the night like cowards. One 16-year-old was picked up soon after, taken in, questioned, and then released back onto the streets pending further investigation.

Detectives are still trying to identify the rest of the pack and work out what the story was.

But one thing’s becoming painfully obvious. Bendigo – the hometown of Premier Jacinta Allan – is fast becoming Victoria’s crime capital, where a Sunday trip to the shops can end with an ambulance ride.

Sending strength to the victim and his family. No one deserves to end a weekend in a hospital bed because a bunch of wannabe gangsters decided to play tough guy. 💔

Massive thumbs up to the 30+ volunteers – including plenty of new faces – who spent the day sweeping, scrubbing, and getting the Golden Square Pool sparkling for the summer pool season! 👍☀️💦

A new forest campground has opened in central Victoria, highlighting the connection between nature and Aboriginal heritage. 🌿

Located in Bendigo Regional Park, Larni Yirrip – meaning “home of the ironbarks” in Dja Dja Wurrung language – sits within the Box-Ironbark Forest on the edge of Bendigo. 🌳

The site features 12 walk-in campsites, picnic areas, shelters, toilets, and cultural artworks. ⛺

Developed by the Dja Dja Wurrung Clans Aboriginal Corporation, the campground weaves Traditional knowledge and storytelling into its design. 💛
