SMILE-Support Melba Inclusive Learning Environment

SMILE-Support Melba Inclusive Learning Environment Melba has a large space of unused Local government land, many outdated inaccessible playgrounds and a fast growing family community.

We need local support to help build a new Melba District Inclusive Community Playground

Over the last few weeks I have been hitting up the candidates for the Melba area and asking about their commitment to the Melba playground. I have just heard back from Peter Cain (Liberals), who sent me this. Please check out the last part of the document involving education and a commitment to an investment in an all inclusive Playspace at the Melba secondary school.

Please remember in this upcoming election, every Canberra political party except Labor spoke in the assembly and said 'yes' to an all inclusive playground in Melba. Everyone.... except Labor.

Found this at the new nature playground at Cootamundra. It's a communication board for children who may have communication issues. There are heaps of them all through the playground specific to each play area. Anyone spotted one of these in Canberra? I haven't. Cootamundra can do it, wonder why the capital city of Australia can't.

Anyone else get their rates notice and find out that their UV has increased ridiculously over the last 12 months?
Nothing has changed in Melba, services have declined and yet UV has gone up? Really?

Brand new Park precinct going into Wagga. $9.5 million for the entire precinct, $2 million for the playground. In conversation with Hector and I, Tara Cheyne MLA estimated $10 million for our idea. I don't think so.

The Riverside project aims to activate the Wagga Beach and Murrumbidgee River precinct and develop the area as a focal point and destination for residents and visitors.

My son and I went for a walk to the Miranda St playground today. it's covered in offensive graffiti. I have reported it to fix my street (https://www.accesscanberra.act.gov.au/s/fix-my-street), please feel free to do the same.
If we can't get a new playground, lets tell the government that they need to fix the ones we have.
