Dear Editor,
It was wonderful to be able to get out and about across our beautiful region on Monday to join local Australia Day celebrations.
I attended Australia Day events in Numurkah, Mooroopna, Shepparton and Nathalia and it was wonderful to congratulate and celebrate the many award recipients and nominations across the electorate.
It is truly inspiring to hear the many contributions that have been made from people in our communities and the positive difference they have made.
It was also a delight to attend the Shepparton Australia Day Citizenship Ceremony and witness the recipients receive their Australian Citizenship with such pride and excitement to join our great nation.
Congratulations also to go to our Australia Day Honour recipients including Mr Peter Copulos OAM, Dr Joseph Tam AM, Mr Sam Atukorala OAM and Mr Geoffrey Thompson OAM.
Warmest Regards,
Kim O’Keeffe MP
Member for Shepparton District
