Our hardworking QTU members came to meet with me recently as part of their ongoing efforts to advocate for better wages and conditions for Queensland teachers 📚
Prior to the last election, they were promised nation-leading wages and conditions by the Crisafulli Government — but during the current round of enterprise bargaining, that simply hasn't happened.
Our teachers are responsible for educating our most precious resource — our children. I'm continuing to call on the Crisafulli Government to listen to teachers and deliver what was promised 👏 ... See MoreSee Less

Anyone who has ever met Dorothy Russell will tell you that at 100 years young, she keeps busier than many people half her age! 💛
Dorothy has given so much to our community, especially through her work with the Darra Jindalee Catholic Church.
One of the many amazing things about Dorothy? At 100 years old she still attends gym class regularly — which is how she met my mum years ago, and they continue to be workout buddies every Wednesday! 💪
It was truly fabulous to celebrate this wonderful woman at a recent morning tea hosted by the church in her honour ☕✨
And I simply can't think of a more fitting recipient of a certificate of recognition from the Pope himself than Dorothy 🙏
Happy birthday Dorothy — nobody deserves this recognition more than you 👏💐 ... See MoreSee Less

Late last year I purchased some beautiful cards from the Motor Neurone Disease Association from a beautiful Middle Park family who sadly lost a family member to this insidious illness 💔
In a cost of living crunch, one way we can keep supporting our favourite charities is to purchase items we already use — like cards, hats and pens — from organisations dear to our hearts ♥️
I adore these cards and I'll be getting more! You can grab yours here 👉🏼🔗 mndqld.org.au/store

The Sinhala Association hosted their 33rd New Year celebration at CJ Greenfield recently, and what a fantastic event!! 🎉
I was truly blown away by the fabulous performances from some of the young people who did an amazing job entertaining the crowds 🌟

Ordinarily we observe the commemoration of the Trưng Sisters close to International Women's Day, but this year it felt equally fitting to hold the event in the same week as ANZAC Day 🙏
Almost 2,000 years ago, the Trưng Sisters led Vietnam and successfully held invaders at bay — their legend of sacrifice and heroism lives on today.
The wonderful Vietnamese Women’s Association organises this commemorative event each year so future generations continue to hear of their bravery in the face of insurmountable odds 💛
A special mention to the next generation of Vietnamese young people who entered their illustrations of the sisters into the art competition — their work was absolutely beautiful, as you can see! 🎨✨ ... See MoreSee Less

To me — and I think to most of the Jags Club — it feels like these brand new change rooms have been half a decade in the making! 🏟️
So it was incredibly exciting to finally cut the ribbon on this brilliant piece of infrastructure, funded by two separate state government grants ✂️✨
These unisex change rooms will give our male and female players modern, fit-for-purpose facilities and continue to help the Jags attract more female players 💪
A huge congratulations to Club President Michael "Rutchie" Rutch for his persistence in bringing this project to life 👏
