Defence personnel, veterans, community members, councillors, and elected representatives gathered yesterday evening at Mount Claremont Community Centre for the Australian Government’s information session on the future of Irwin Barracks.

Defence Australia outlined the divestment and transition planning process, with Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Matt Keogh and senior departmental leaders responding to extensive questions on heritage, environmental considerations, redevelopment impacts, and Australia’s broader military capability needs. Federal Member for Curtin Kate Chaney and State Member for Nedlands Jonathan Huston also addressed attendees.

No matter what decisions are made at the Federal level, the 61.5 hectare Irwin Barracks site will continue to sit within the City of Nedlands. Recognising the significance of this precinct, Mayor Leonie Browner, Deputy Mayor Jennifer Mathews and Councillors Stephen Kobelke, Eliza Clapin, Rachel Kristensen and Charles Pan were present.

Defence Australia also confirmed they will work closely with the City throughout the process, and we remain mindful of the concerns raised by current and former Defence personnel and their families.

🌻Supporting Hidden Disabilities in Our Community 🌻

The City of Nedlands is proud to support the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Australia & New Zealand initiative - a simple way for people with non-visible conditions to signal that they may need a little extra support or understanding when visiting our facilities. Sunflower lanyards and wristbands are available for use during your visit at our Administration, Libraries and Tresillian Arts Centre.

This month we’re highlighting Alzheimer’s. It’s the most common form of dementia and can deeply affect memory, communication, behaviour and daily life.
By recognising Alzheimer’s as an invisible condition, we can offer more patience, understanding and support to those living with it. 💛

Noongar Six Seasons | MAKURU

The cold and wet season of Makuru is here - known to the Noongar people as the season of the first rains. It’s also a season of fertility, as the Ravens (Wardong) and Black Swan (Mali) pair up and settle into their breeding period.

Early blooms begin to show in deep blues and purples, including blueberry lily (Dianella revoluta) and purple flags (Patersonia occidentalis), before the white flowers of weeping peppermint signal the transition toward Djilba.

COLLEGIANS FOOTBALL CLUB | MENTAL HEALTH ROUND 💙

On 16 May, Collegians AFC held their annual Blue Tree Project Mental Health Round at David Cruickshank Reserve in Dalkeith - an initiative established in 2025 to honour a young player lost to su***de and to spark open, stigma‑breaking conversations about mental health.

Before each game, both teams gathered at the blue tree painted at the club in 2025, taking a moment to reflect on the importance of checking in on mates and supporting one another. The day brought players, families, and supporters together in a powerful show of community, with all funds raised donated to The Blue Tree Project.

The City of Nedlands acknowledges the club’s leadership in fostering open conversations and reducing stigma, and is proud to support community‑led initiatives that encourage connection, compassion, and conversation. 💙

🌧️ Storm Response Update 🌧️

Over the long weekend, our Rangers and Parks crews worked through challenging storm conditions to keep our community safe and ensuring impacted sites were cleared as quickly as possible.

Across Sunday and Monday, the City received 19 requests for assistance, including:
🔹 11 trees down and 1 library sign down on Sunday
🔹 5 trees down and 1 fence down on Monday
🔹Outstanding matters, including tree debris on verges, will be collected and a hanging branch in Mt Claremont is to be investigated by Parks.

A huge thank you to our dedicated Rangers and Parks team for their responsiveness, teamwork and commitment to community safety during the storm. 💙
