Kathleen MATTHEWS-WARD (Broadmeadows) (09:52): It was an enormous pleasure to open the magnificent new learning space at Penola Catholic College on Monday, named after Annie Brice, determined Boandik woman, defender of rights and friend of St Mary McKillop. It was really special to have members of her family present, including Aunty Michelle Jacquelin-Furr, who did a beautiful acknowledgement of country in traditional language, and Bishop Terry Curtin and Father Dishan, who blessed the building.
