🌟A heartfelt thank you to the Stawell Bowling Club for inviting and hosting Grampians Multicultural Hub members for a wonderful Sunday afternoon of lawn bowls recently!

We sincerely appreciate the warm welcome, generosity and opportunity to come together, connect and enjoy a fun afternoon as a community.

It was also noticed that a couple of the GMH members seemed to have a natural talent for the sport and may even become lawn bowls regulars! 😀

A huge thank you to the Stawell Community Garden for inviting and hosting a lovely Winter Solstice celebration last Sunday!

Despite the cooler weather, spirits were high, with 18 members of the Grampians Multicultural Hub joining the festivities alongside the community garden members and friends.

The afternoon was filled with homemade pizzas fresh from the wood-fired ovens, sweet treats and plenty of friendly conversations. It was fantastic to see so many people coming together to connect, share stories and celebrate community.

A wonderful story was shared by Cr Jenny Greenberger and the Vanuatu Community's Junior Issachar, who reflected on their involvement in establishing the garden back in about 2022 and the early efforts that helped bring the space to life.

Events like these remind us of the importance of bringing people together, especially during the colder months. Thank you again to the Stawell Community Garden for your warm hospitality and for creating such a welcoming and enjoyable event.

Special thanks to Jane Nicholls and Helga Saunders for your tireless work.

We look forward to many more opportunities to connect and celebrate together!

It is great to see such a positive interaction with our local police! 🙌🏽🧡

🏐 Last weekend while patrolling, Members of the Stawell Police noticed something happening at North Park. A game of Volleyball! 🏐

Thanks to the Stawell Vanuatu Community for teaching police to play and cheering on our... questionable skills. 🤣
