Centenary of Fremantle's establishment as Fremantle.

Potential ideas for consideration,

“Local government could demonstrate good will and good leadership by returning sacred area to their traditional owners who could revitalise sites like Cantonment Hill.”

Joe Collard, co-designer of Uluru Statement from the Heart.

Fremantle Society president John Dowson said the bicentenary “should be a celebration of bringing people together and not pushing people apart”.

Mr Dowson suggested the government create a longer-term major project for the entire community to appreciate.

“Something positive for the state” such as revitalising waterways in Western Australia to provide “clean water and healthy rivers for us to go back and fish in and swim in”.

The one-hour session includes a 45-minute presentation covering the pest’s biology, life cycle, the types of trees at risk, signs of infestation and how to report suspicious activity.

Bit of a run-down of that Wheat Congress that happened the other week.

I'm surprised there wasn't a mention of the unique consequences on wheat production and supply due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
