Battle for the Banded Rail
Battle for the Banded Rail has a planting day this Sunday 9am - 1pm on Rabbit Island’s South coast.
Please park at 98 Ken Beck Drive, on the right, just over the Rough Island to Rabbit Island bridge, then follow the orange cones around the coast. Please note, THE VENUE FOR THIS HAS CHANGED – was previously advertised as Hunter Brown Reserve.
Bring gardening gloves, sturdy shoes/boots, a narrow-bladed spade if you have one, and drinking water. Morning tea will be provided. All volunteers are welcome and there are jobs other than digging.
We’ll go ahead unless it’s raining hard or stormy. If you don’t get an email by 8:00 on Sunday morning, we’re already there setting up 😊.
THE FOLLOWING planting day is Sunday 22nd of August at Reservoir Creek, through the underpass from the Richmond Aquatic Centre.

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.8% ... It is complicated
