I spy a 50-metre pool đź‘€

We’re seeing a lot of progress being made at the new Dandenong Wellbeing Centre. The 50-metre pool has been dug out so you can now see the shape of the pool. If you're nearby, you can take a peek through the mesh fence on Cleeland Street.

Today marks the beginning of National Recycling Week (10-16 November).

This year’s theme, Rescue Me!, is a powerful reminder that many items we toss away as rubbish are actually valuable resources waiting to be rescued and reused.

Here's how you can make a difference:

🏡 Improve your recycling habits at home, work, and in your community
📱 Use Recycle Mate to find out how to recycle items that can’t go in your kerbside bins
đź›’ Choose products made from recycled materials to support the cycle

Last month, as part of the Victorian Seniors Festival we celebrated our centenarians with a special morning tea. In attendance was Jack, 104 year old Keysborough local.

When asked the secret to a long and happy life, Jack's answer was simple:

“Family. There is nothing better than the love from your family.”
