Got to wonder whether 325,000 Victorians who’ve already voted were all locked in to their choice; and not interested in any election policy announcements; or just wanted to get it done! Will be a lot less sausages sold next Saturday. @rwillingham @skateanderson #vicvotes https://t.co/0U31I5swjT

Tomorrow will be a big day for everyone involved with the Morwell Rose Garden Festival. The rose garden will be on show between 10am and 5pm with demonstrations, workshops, a treasure hunt, market stalls, food vans and entertainment.
You’ll be able to explore over 4000 roses and see why Morwell Rose Garden recently received the ‘Award of Garden of Excellence’ from the World Federation of Rose Societies. Keep an eye out for Costa, host of ABC Gardening Australia, who'll be a special guest among the festival crowd.
Well done to the events team at Latrobe City Council and to the wonderful volunteers who've just completed the finishing touches ahead of tomorrow’s big event. #myvalley #lovegippsland

This is Hazel Bryce, an Australian war veteran and she is 100 today.
Hazel enlisted in October 1942 and served with the 2/5 Australian General Hospital, Australian Army Nursing Service, attaining the rank of Lieutenant.
She served in New Guinea and witnessed the Japanese bombings of the aerodrome at Port Moresby, where she treated many of those wounded in the attacks.
Hazel rates caring for the wounded and general assistance to the soldiers as the best thing about her service.
Her advice to ADF members and young people in general is to ‘try to live by the rules of the particular situation you are in and do your best’.
Her secret to a long life? ‘Let worries pass over you and enjoy your family’s support!’
Happy Birthday, Hazel and thank you for your service.

$1 million for new classrooms at Catholic College Sale. The Federal Government is providing $1 million, matched by $5 million from Catholic College Sale, to redevelop the old John 23rd building. It will become a purpose-built years seven and eight block when they move from Sion to the St Patricks campus at the end of 2020. We all know teachers and students thrive when they have access to modern facilities and the newest technologies. Looking forward to seeing the project get underway next year. #lovegippsland
