24.01.2022 WOW How very special is this. Our very own Fazzi No.2 limited edition plaque These plaques are made individually by hand, to raise much needed funds, that allo...w our dedicated volunteer Orlando and the crew of the Whroo Goldfields Conservation Network Inc, to continue the tireless volunteer work to build, maintain & monitor our endangered local native marsupial's nesting boxes. Talented locals Kevin and Lorraine have created these gorgeous plaques that are each lovingly hand sculpted and hand painted, and no two are exactly the same. Now for sale at just $100 each, they are both unique and precious pieces of art. If you are interested in purchasing one of these limited editions please contact Orlando on 0400 987 881 or Heathcote Community House's Coordinator Vicki on 0431 328 421. Pictured here is Lorraine and Orlando presenting Janice Mentiplay-Smith with the number 1 limited edition plaque in recognition of her 10 years of coordination of the group, and endless volunteer time.

22.01.2022 Don't let this chance to improve your town go by - fill out your Active Living Census BY THIS SUNDAY 16th June. The more Heathcoteans feedback the more likely things can continue to improve for many!... Your data is vital to not only council opportunities but also to our health, education, aged care, mental health and many community organisations and clubs in our town. Please come into the community house and we can help you all day Friday 9am to 3pm. United collective Heathcote feedback will definitely grab the attention of those who hold the purse strings! Do we need more and safer walking tracks, better lighting, seating along paths or at sporting grounds, or support for more sporting clubs? What would make it easier for you to get more active in our community? Some ideas we have heard for many years can be included in this census We have heard so many times for HEATHCOTE TO BE MORE ACTIVE MORE SAFELY SUCH AS - MORE FOOTPATHS, especially along Hospital Street & others with families, the aged & those less mobile currently walk, could walk or ride their bikes to kinder, school, the skate park and more MORE LIGHTING IN HOSPITAL ST to allow safer activity by people being able to walk, ride and move about our town centre, health, education and community precinct. SAFER ROAD CROSSING for all dents, staff and visitors to & from our Health, education & community precinct in Hospital St Improvements to our popular Skate Park area, to cater for all ages, and better accommodate whole family activity by including - A BASKETBALL HOOP & HALF CRT OR SHOOTING PAD, MORE SKATE RAMPS, IMAGINITIVE PLAY EQUIPMENT & SPACES FOR CREATIVE MINDS, SPACES FOSTERING FOOD GROWING/SENSORY & THERAPEUDIC PLAY FOR FAMILIES and CHILDREN OF ALL AGES, to ride their bikes and scooters A water station and BBQ and picnic facilities to encourage healthy outdoor social connections MORE POOL IMPROVEMENTS & FACILITIES A local Hydrotherapy pool A local transport service to help get people to town to these clubs, activities and spaces, AND WE KNOW YOU HAVE MORE!
