Mr McARTHUR (1:58 PM) —On Friday, 1 September, I attended the opening of the Bannockburn Community Centre. This outcome has been achieved after five years of careful planning by the Golden Plains Shire Council and local community groups. The $1.8 million building reflects the community’s desire to have the preschool, kindergarten and other health services at the one location. It is a very well constructed building and is a demonstration of the cooperation between the local, state and federal governments in providing facilities at the local level. The Golden Plains Shire and the architects are to be commended for the design and for their very effective use of taxpayers’ money. In moving a vote of thanks, Tracy Rowe commended all those previous generations of parents who had contributed to the planning and wished them well for the future with this wonderful community asset that will serve the people of Bannockburn—with its expanding population of young mothers—so well in the future by providing a first-class facility.
