Fancy a bit of school holiday creativity and making our CBD even more vibrant?

From Thursday June 22 through to Thursday June 29 we're working with the fab crew at Mildura City Heart, Cultivator Inc and Youth Engagement Services on the next CBD mural project on Linton's Lane just behind the Grand Hotel.

The talented Liv McCarten Art will be leading this project which will depict our region from the air.

This is a pretty large-scale project so if you or anyone you know who is above the age of 10 would like to pick up a paint brush and get involved, you can register via flicking a line to [email protected]

Art prodigy's solo debut ARTS Mildura is giving all members of the community the chance to shine, including 16-year-old artist Holly-Elise Langley, who has opened her first solo exhibition.

Join us for the debut exhibition of young Sunraysia artist Holly-Elise Langley. This collection of works utilises mixed mediums including acrylic and watercolour. Inspiration for the collection has been taken from a wide range of things including animals, songs and spooky stuff. Holly is influenced by Francis Bacon and Anselm Kiefer.

So what are you waiting for, come and check out this amazing collection on Thursday 8th of June from 11am at the Arts Mildura Hub (39 Langtree Avenue, Mildura)

NMLLEN - Education & Employment for Young People Welcome to Northern Mallee Local Learning and Employment NetworkConnecting schools, industry, community, and families to improve outcome in education, training, and employment for young people.

To all FLO Connect families the information on our return to remote learning thank you for your support. If you need food hampers ect please contact FLO Connect.

The vast majority of students in Victoria are learning from home because that is the advice from our health experts.

If we did not follow this advice, more than one million children, their parents and school staff congregating at our schools has the potential to spread Coronavirus in our community.

Let me be very clear, particularly to the federal government who do not run any schools, we will only transition back to face-to-face teaching for all students when that is the advice of the Victorian Chief Health Officer. Not a moment before.

What we are doing in combating this pandemic is working. But the situation is very fragile. A move back too early could see a spike in cases and a need to reimpose any restrictions we may have eased.

I know this is hard - for parents and carers, students and educators - flexible and remote learning is challenging, no doubt.

But I could not be prouder of our principals, teachers and support staff. Exceptional, dedicated and innovative. They are doing their very best. I am seeing this first-hand as a father of three school-aged children.

And I could not be prouder of Victorian parents and carers. 97% of children are learning remotely. You have heard and understood the message. Thank you. And for students where learning from home is simply not possible, our schools are open for you.

We are all in this together. And it is working because at all times we have followed the advice of our health experts in Victoria.

We must, and we will, continue to do that.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions.
