Hi, I’m Kat Theophanous - the Labor Member of Parliament for Northcote in the Victorian Legislative Assembly.
The action that I seek is for the minister to provide an update on the progress being made to deliver the Farm Road link connecting Alphington to the Darebin-Yarra Trail.
I rise to pay tribute to Charlie Pavlou, a Northcote local and lifelong Labor member, who passed away on 3 June at the age of 91.
The action that I seek is for the minister to investigate avenues available to the state government to prevent the Greens-controlled Darebin council from implementing its proposed parking strategy.
This program is of course the rollout of universal subsidised three-year-old kinder for every Victorian child.
A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of turning the first sod on the new works at Bell Primary School.
I am thrilled to announce $14.1 million will be invested in the Alphington Primary School site to modernise it and increase its capacity.
The action that I seek is for the minister to assist in having the parcel of land known as the Fulham Grange spur in Alphington remediated and the pedestrian pathway reopened.
I rise to speak in support of this bill because it relates to an issue of concern that is having a very real impact in my community.
I had the honour of joining students, teachers and parents at Fairfield Primary School to open an incredible new learning space made possible by $2.5 million in funding from the Andrews Labor government.
We are built on the many struggles of Aboriginal, migrant and working-class communities who fought for basic rights like accessible education, health care and decent jobs.
