 Alison MARCHANT (Bellarine) (09:59): There is always a lot happening on the Bellarine, and last Saturday I had the pleasure to hold a stall at the Live Love Leopold community day at Leopold Primary School. The full force of our local community was on display, with passionate volunteers, local families and community organisations running stalls. It was a true celebration of what makes Leopold and the Bellarine special, people coming together, supporting one another and taking pride in where they live. A big thankyou to Leopold Primary School, especially principal Stuart Bott, and to every volunteer and committee member who gave their time and energy to put on such a wonderful and successful day. Stalls and markets are a really valuable opportunity to have real conversations with my community, to listen to locals and hear about their priorities and hopes for the future for our region.
