What a wonderful start to the Parliamentary year! 🙌
The mighty learners from Year 6 at Corinda State School visited Parliament this morning as part of their Civics unit, and I was absolutely delighted to answer their hard-hitting questions about the challenges of my role, my favourite parts, and my biggest achievement to date. 👏🏽

🚗 Heads up if you’re 75 and over or have a loved one who is.
New licence health rules mean that when you renew your licence as an older driver, your GP can now do the paperwork for your medical assessment at your appointment 🩺📝
This still includes a vision check so we all stay safe on the roads 👀. But if your GP thinks you need a specialist eye test, they’ll refer you on. 
It’s all about keeping you safe and confident behind the wheel. Make sure to book your GP appointment before your licence renewal is due, and take the forms with you so they can fill them in and submit them with you.
Stay safe out there! 🚘💛 ... See MoreSee Less

First doorknock of 2026 and we’re out making sure everyone in Mount Ommaney knows about the bulk-billed urgent care clinic at Canossa Hospital in Oxley 🏥💛
So great chatting with locals and spreading the word about fast, free care when you need it.
Thank you for the chats Darra!! 👋 ... See MoreSee Less

Although summer is coming to a close, storm season is nowhere near over ⛈️
If you haven’t already, now’s a great time to tick off Urban Utilities’ “Set for Summer” checklist to help protect your home and family before the next big downpour 💧
✅ Have an emergency plan
✅ Include water in your emergency kit (10L per person for 3 days)
✅ Locate your water meter and take regular readings to spot hidden leaks
✅ Make sure stormwater downpipes aren’t connected to the wastewater network
✅ Check your overflow relief gully is raised and clear of debris or blockages
✅ Avoid contact with creeks, rivers or floodwaters after heavy rain
✅ Know who to contact for help. For water or wastewater faults or emergencies, call 13 23 64 (24/7)
A few simple steps now can save a lot of stress later.
