A big shoutout to Simone Bailey - Mayor Mid Murray Council - We thank Mayor Mid Murray Council for her strong leadership and compassionate efforts helping her community through the most devastating times during the floods.

This Select Committee of the Legislative Council has been established to inquire into the 2022-23 River Murray flood event including the preparation, response and recovery.

It was a privilege to join the Select Committee members on site visits and regional meetings. The Select Committee is diligently chaired by Hon. Nicola Centofanti MLC, Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council.

We thank everyone who have given their valuable time to provide insights, important feedback; raise serious concerns and issues about the devastation, damages and financial losses the floods events had impacted on their livelihoods, properties, families and mental wellbeing.

SELECT COMMITTEE ON THE 2022-23 RIVER MURRAY FLOOD EVENT • Regional Visit

Thank you Corey Jones for hosting our visit at his farm and sharing his heartbreaking experience with the flood. He is a third-generation dairy farmer, who became the first-generation buffalo farmer. He established the South Australian Buffalo Company in 2014 at his family’s property in Mypolonga.

Corey’s farm was virtually submerged by water during the Murray River flood of 2022/23, and he was forced to move his herd to Wall Flat. All 350 acres of his farm pastures were under water, and their dairy was marooned on an island. The clean-up following the flood was long and slow. Corey said the help from other farmers and his community were instrumental in his business surviving the flood.

It was important that we went on sites to speak directly to community members impacted by the flood events including farmers, irrigators, RDA, Local Council, business operators and other stakeholders.

This Select Committee of the Legislative Council has been established to inquire into the 2022-23 River Murray flood event including the preparation, response and recovery.

WATER 💦 BIRDS 🦆

Ducks are definitely the most common birds seen along the waterways, especially the Australian Wood Ducks. 🦆

Did you know? All Ducks, Geese, Swans belong to the family Anatidae.

The Anatidae are the biological family of water birds that includes ducks, geese, and swans. The family has a cosmopolitan distribution, occurring on all the world's continents except Antarctica. These birds are adapted for swimming, floating on the water surface, and in some cases diving into shallow water.

Waterbirds depend on healthy wetland ecosystems to breed, forage for food and roost. So, when you are out and about along the Murray River - enjoy the scenery and recreational activities but respect the beauty and ecosystem of nature and wildlife.

This photo was taken when I was visiting Mannum as part of the Select Committee (Impact on River Communities from the Floods).

💙Republic of Vietnam Air Force Veterans’ Association in South Australia (RVNAF Veterans Association SA) - 69th Anniversary Commemoration of The Republic of Vietnam Air Force

The South Vietnam Air Force, officially the Republic of Vietnam Air Force (RVNAF) was the aerial branch of the Republic of Vietnam Military Forces, the official military of the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) from 1955 to 1975. The RVNAF began with a few hand-picked highly skilled men chosen to fly alongside French pilots during the State of Vietnam era. It eventually grew into the world's top 10 largest air force at the height of its power, in 1974. It was dissolved in 1975 after the Fall of Saigon; subsequently many of its members emigrated to USA, Australia and other countries.

2024 marks the 69th Anniversary of the establishment of The Republic of Vietnam Air Force in 1955. It was an honour to be invited once again by the President, Mr Dang-Thao Nguyen and Committee of RVNAF Veterans Association in Australia and RVNAF Veterans Association in South Australia to attend the 2024 commemorative event.

It was an important commemoration service for us to honour and pay respects to freedom fighters, service men and women of the defence forces and those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The Vietnamese community came together with the Australian veterans community and dignitaries to honour the bravery, loyalty and sacrifice of the fallen soldiers and war heroes, also the recognition of veterans and their families for their enormous contributions.

The Dante Alighieri Society is a non-profit organization supported by passionate volunteers who assist in promoting Italian language and culture. They provide a gateway for people all over the world to the culture, language, food, wine, history, art, opera, music, cinema, fashion and industry of Italy.

Congratulations and thank you to Edmondo Palombo, President and Committee of Dante Alighieri Society of South Australia for inviting me to an event a part of“Iconic Women" series.

The event is titled "I Blame Love - Gaspara Stampa, a (almost) forgotten voice of the Italian Renaissance", beautifully presented by Prof. Alessandro Boria. It was insightful and very entertaining.

The event also featured a wonderful presentation, by a local association called "Ascolta Women Inc.", of their recently published book titled "Stories from la terra". Ascolta Women Inc is a collective of creative multi-generation Italian-Australian and Italian affiliated women. It was great to meet and learn from four fabulous authors from Ascolta Women today.

A fantastic afternoon and great to catch up so many wonderful friends including President of South Australian Italian Association Inc. and so many community leaders. Thank you to everyone for their outstanding support.
