Looking to catch up on local news? The new Swan Scoop is out now.
This edition, we announce the release of the City of Swan’s first Reconciliation Action Plan, confirming our ongoing commitment to building a just, equitable and reconciled Australia.
The plan outlines practical actions we can take to strengthen relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, build a culture of respect, and promote equity and opportunity for all within our City.
Continuing our theme of reconciliation, we recognise local Noongar artist, Jeanette Garlett, and her works, including her sculpture Spirit of Maali at Maali Bridge Park in the Swan Valley and her designs which feature on Swan Active’s new team shirts.
We also celebrate the Guildford townsite’s new entry signs that honour both the Aboriginal and European settlement history of the area.
In other news, we learn about the Swan Valley’s new gift cards and take a closer look at some of the City’s recycling practices, workshops and learn about the tips, tricks and activities we can all do to reduce our environmental impact.
You will also find updates on community consultations, major projects, roadworks and upcoming events, plus ideas for places to go and things to see and do in the City.
