Tatura water tower art

Mr GEPP (Northern Victoria) (10:10): I rise in this place to acknowledge the Tatura water tower mural again that my office and I worked so closely with the RSL over many years to achieve, and thanks to the Andrews government and the $27 800 grant that helped get the project off the ground. The project sees the Sir John Monash designed tower adorned with poppies on one side and Sir John Monash on the other. It was just recently recognised twice at the City of Greater Shepparton Australia Day awards, winning both the Community Event of the Year award and the overall award. The project was the brainchild of Rob Mathieson and the Tatura RSL and was unveiled by me, Rob, Goulburn Valley Water, the local council and the Monash family last June. Congratulations to all involved for the appropriate recognition of their hard work in the achievement of this water tower.
