Sporting clubs play in important role in our community. They can be important places of social connections and support, as well as influential structures where attitudes and behaviours, including those towards women and girls, are formed and upheld.
Sporting clubs also have an important responsibility to ensure all members are safe and free from discrimination and harassment. This can be achieved by creating and supporting fair, inclusive and respectful sporting environments on and off the playing field.
Active Bystander training seeks to support fair, inclusive and respectful sporting environments through skilling participants to not only identify and challenge sexism, but other forms of discrimination such as racism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia. Active Bystander training equips participants to step in when they see or hear sexist or discriminatory language, jokes, behaviours or practices across a range of sports settings and scenarios.
Research shows that promoting bystander action across your sporting club can support a range of benefits. Some examples of this include:
Spots in this workshop are limited so book your spot as soon as you can.
Registrations are essential. Refreshments provided.

Spring and summer are the perfect times to think about the netting you use to protect your fruit trees or garden beds.
Under 2021 Victorian regulations, it's illegal in Victoria to use or sell household fruit tree netting with a mesh size bigger than 5mm x 5mm. Larger mesh netting is more likely to entangle, distress, seriously injure or kill wildlife. To check if your netting is legal, try poking a finger through the mesh, if it can pass through, then it's too big.
We are inviting Manningham residents to surrender netting in exchange for one new, legal net.
Surrendered illegal netting will be recycled via UPPAREL.
This event is part of a Victorian Net Swap pilot in collaboration with other local councils and the Conservation Regulator.

Manningham City Council (Council) gives notice to surrender the existing easement at 61-77 Reynolds Road Templestowe (Petty’s Reserve), in favour of the Gas and Fuel Corporation, the predecessor of Multinet Gas (DB No 1) Pty Ltd and Multinet Gas (DB No 2) Pty Ltd (‘Multinet’) and replace it with a new easement over part of the land.
The existing easement is set aside for the purpose of a pipeline for gas distribution and gives Multinet a legal right to use and access that part of the land to install underground pipes and carry out maintenance.
The existing easement (100m2) is 1 metre in width and runs below the ground surface from the northern boundary at the centre of the land towards south for approximately 8 metres and then along the gravel driveway towards the west for 92 metres.
The new easement (approximately 384m2) set aside for the purpose of cathodic protection for gas distribution purposes, is 2 metres in width and runs below ground surface from the northern boundary near the entry gate for approximately 7.13m2 towards the south and then west along the gravel drive for approximately 182.52m2.
Council will resolve on the surrender of the existing easement and the grant of the new easement 28 days from the date of the publication of this notice.
