Welcome to <strong>the</strong> <strong>October</strong> <strong>Edition</strong> of<br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>Caroline</strong> <strong>Springs</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />

<strong>Update</strong>.<br />

It is great to see that <strong>the</strong> wea<strong>the</strong>r is<br />

finally warming up, and with it<br />

comes more opportunities to<br />

participate in some activities with<br />

family and friends. Perhaps a bit of<br />

spring cleaning of <strong>the</strong> home!<br />

Donʼt forget that residents now<br />

have <strong>the</strong> option of getting <strong>the</strong>re<br />

unwanted goods picked up directly<br />

Cr Majdlik Talks for <strong>Caroline</strong> <strong>Springs</strong><br />

from <strong>the</strong>ir home or office via<br />

councilʼs hard waste collection<br />

service. Simply call <strong>the</strong> council<br />

and have <strong>the</strong>m organise a time for<br />

your unwanted goods to be picked<br />

up!<br />

Most recently, I attended a launch<br />

for <strong>the</strong> ʻUdderly Artʼ project, at <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Caroline</strong> <strong>Springs</strong> Library, where<br />

very impressive life sized cows<br />

were artistically painted in a<br />

collaboration between local artist<br />

Blair Angelo and people with<br />

disabilities, <strong>the</strong>ir siblings and<br />

support staff from four local<br />

service providers.<br />

Their willingness to contribute and<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir enthusiasm have made <strong>the</strong><br />

project a great success. The<br />

artwork will be installed at Morton<br />

Homestead in Taylors Hill, which<br />

will provide <strong>the</strong> perfect backdrop<br />

with its green open space and<br />

abundance of trees.<br />

Council has started a <strong>Community</strong><br />

Languages Collection to match<br />

<strong>the</strong> growth of our culturally and<br />

linguistically diverse community.<br />

The collection is located at <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Caroline</strong> <strong>Springs</strong> library and<br />

includes DVDs, magazines and<br />

newspapers in Arabic, Chinese,<br />

Hindi, Maltese, Sinhalese,<br />

Spanish and Vietnamese with<br />

Macedonian material to come.<br />

As always, I always welcome<br />

comments or feedback from<br />

residents who wish to contact me<br />

regarding any Council related<br />

matters.<br />

I can be contacted via email at<br />
