During the meeting, Mayor Cr Diamante read out a statement attributed to the Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation.  The Statement was taken from a social media page administered by the Corporation. 

After the Council meeting, we were advised that the Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation may update this statement.  The Statement is therefore not included on Council’s website as stated by the Mayor.

By improving your home's efficiency, you can lower your bills and create a more comfortable home for your family.

Interested in making your home more comfortable and energy efficient, but don’t know where to start?

Our expert presenter Lucinda has worked with hundreds of households to improve their home's comfort and energy efficiency.

Instead of focusing on how to upgrade, Lucinda will help you review the strengths and weaknesses of your own home, so that you feel confident about where to start and how to prioritise your efforts.

During the session, we’ll talk about:

• how heat moves in and out of homes, so you can identify the areas creating heat movement (loss or gain)
• home upgrades that can reduce heat movement such as draught sealing, insulation, window treatments, glazing, frames and shading 
• identify the most important upgrades for your home
• review and rank your major appliances in terms of age, efficiency and need for upgrade

There will be time for questions throughout, so you can understand what matters and why.

We will also provide a matching data collection sheet to take home, plus additional resources, so that you can gather further information and pinpoint areas you need to investigate further.

One week after this event, join an optional one-hour online Q&A, where you can ask all of those questions you forgot to ask or didn't realise you needed to! 

Registrations are essential and places are limited due to venue capacity.

• This workshop is funded by Manningham Council and hosted in partnership with Wonga Park Community Cottage.

Power up a cleaner future

This event is part of our Electrify Your Life program, which supports residents to go all-electric at home, creating a brighter Manningham. Learn how to make the switch at Electrify Your Life.

Hysteria runs rampant in Puritan Salem, Massachusetts. A group of young girls and a slave were found dancing in the woods and conjuring spells. After one of the girls falls ill, the town suspects it is the work of the devil and local witches. However, all is not what it seems. John Proctor, a local farmer, suspects that the local witchcraft is not witchcraft at all, but the invention of a scorned teenage girl. Neighbour turns on neighbour as Proctor fights to restore sense to the town and save many from the hangman’s noose.
