Casey is more than an electorate. It’s my home, and it means so much to me.

I am a proud third generation resident of Casey, ever since my family migrated from Italy and settled in Silvan in 1953.

We got some bittersweet news this week…📱

We got some bittersweet news this week…📱

Enjoyed having a hit with @mooroolbark_cricket_clu

Enjoyed having a hit with @mooroolbark_cricket_club at training last night... a good chance to get in a bit of practice before the Press v Pollies match in Canberra next week 🏏

But it was back to work in the clubrooms, where @david.hodgett and I launched our petition to get the Mooroolbark Heights Reserve pavilion upgraded.

For too long at Mooroolbark, the clubrooms have been inadequate for the club’s growing men’s and women’s teams.

The facilities are outdated, overcrowded and lack social space for the clubs and community to enjoy.

David and I are fighting to get the Mooroolbark pavilion upgraded - but we need your support to get it done.

The Albanese Labor Government ripped away funding

The Albanese Labor Government ripped away funding to seal our local dirt roads, impacting over 450 roads.

I won't stop fighting to have this funding reinstated because we all deserve safer, sealed roads.

Enjoyed visiting the brigade to catch up with Captain Darryn and the volunteers.

We are fortunate to have many local brigades made up of dedicated volunteers that work together to keep our region safe.

I recently had the opportunity to speak with mother's of multiples at playgroup at Rolling Hills Children & Family Services in Mooroolbark.

Multiple births can bring significant financial challenges for families due incurring many child-specific costs concurrently.

Studies have shown that the cost of having twins is nearly 5 times the cost of having a singleton - yet parents of twins and triplets get the same Paid Parental Leave entitlements as those with one child.

I wrote to the Albanese Government last year requesting they further consider the needs of families of multiples and have raised this in Parliament.

Thank you Teagan, Ellen, Courtney and Kathryn for sharing your many triumphs and challenges as parents of twin children.

Locals have told me they want to see better local

Locals have told me they want to see better local healthcare in our community. So do I.

It was wonderful to have Shadow Minister for Health @senator.ruston in our community today to hear directly from local GP's, meet with pharmacists and community organisation HICCI.

We also met with @headspacelilydale, @eachcommunity and @easternmelbournephn representatives to discuss youth mental health and the need for improved services in our local area.

With Headspace open limited hours and @lilydale_youth_hub now closed, our community has become a mental health desert. Our young people deserve local support and I will continue advocating for improved mental health services in our community.

You didn't think I'd miss International Coffee Day, did you? ☕

Lovely to meet Steph and Jess from @willowandjackson_cafe out in Healesville today.

As the sign says, they make seriously good coffee!

A fantastic local business to stop into next time you're in Healesville.

Over 1,000 locals have completed my new community survey in the past 12 days!

It is so important that I hear from you to ensure I best represent your views in Parliament and continue to fight for a stronger local community.

I’d love to hear what’s important to you! Have your say and help shape our future - survey link in my bio.

Anthony Albanese and Labor are taxing more, and spending more, than any government in history.

Hardworking Australians are suffering under his fiscal mismanagement. He is responsible for the inflation and higher interest rates that are hurting so many Australians.

Disappointingly, Mr Albanese has no plan.

Only @peterduttonmp and a Coalition Government can deliver strong back to basics economic management that gets Australia back on track.

It would be rude not to wear the @collingwood_fc scarf on our last official day as reigning premiers.

Turning sausages on the BBQ at Bunnings Croydon (Chirnside) with Yarra Glen Men’s Shed for one of their biggest fundraisers today 🌭

Make sure you stop by on your trip to Bunnings.

Enjoyed joining Belgrave Football Netball Club for their end of year presentation night.

I had the honour of presenting my inaugural Casey Medal to Mark for his longstanding commitment to the club. Beginning in juniors, Mark went on to play over 250 games for the club, holding multiple leadership roles. He is the first to arrive, last to leave and the "go-to guy" for all things at the club.

My Casey Medal is intended to acknowledge an individual who demonstrates outstanding performance and/or dedicated commitment to their local club.

Congratulations to all at Belgrave Football Netball Club on a successful season.

Anthony Albanese isn't across the detail and has no solutions to ease your cost of living.

It's time Labor got on with the job at Killara Road!

@bridgetvallence and I worked with community to save the funding for the Maroondah Highway & Killara Road upgrade. At the time, the Victorian Labor Government said pre-works and community consultation would be complete in 2024, allowing construction to follow in 2025.

We are just months from the end of 2024 and consultation is yet to begin.

This project is long overdue and Coldstream deserves answers. I wrote to the Minister last week seeking an update. Head to Facebook to view the letter.

13 weeks until Christmas! 😳🎄

I'm on the look out for the best local drawing for my 2024 Christmas Card. My competition is now open and I can't wait to see my foyer plastered in drawings from local students once again.

The winner will have their drawing, name and school on the front of this year's Christmas Card.

Still making my way through your local coffee recommendations! Today’s caffeine hit was from @threesugarswarburton ☕️

With an electorate as large as Casey, it’s so important to hear the issues that matter in each corner of our community.

Thank you to all my volunteers for coming out on a Saturday morning to listen to the community about what is important to us.

Lots of great conversations at our local shopping centres, topped off by a sausage cooked to perfection by Mooroolbark Men’s Shed.

Perfect start to the school holidays at @cherryhil

Perfect start to the school holidays at @cherryhill_orchards Blossom Festival.

You can also catch the orchard’s first night event, ‘Blossom By Light’ this weekend! 🌸

No previous generation has been exposed to the vol

No previous generation has been exposed to the volume of damaging material that our kids are seeing today on social media. It’s causing disturbing trends in mental health. We must do everything we can to protect them.

In June, the Coalition committed to raising the social media age to 16. Anthony Albanese & Labor are now playing catch up. It's time they got on with legislating an age limit for kids accessing social media.
