During the meeting, Mayor Cr Diamante read out a statement attributed to the Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation. The Statement was taken from a social media page administered by the Corporation.
After the Council meeting, we were advised that the Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation may update this statement. The Statement is therefore not included on Council’s website as stated by the Mayor.

The Clothing Exchange believes that looking good shouldn’t cost the earth.
Swapping is a clever and thrifty way to update your wardrobe without hitting the shops. It saves you pennies and the planet too!
Eligibility
To participate you must drop clothes off. For each item you drop off you will receive a token which can then be used to select another item. A maximum of eight items per person will be accepted.
Please note: the clothes drop off starts at 12.00pm and the clothes swap exchange starts at 1.00pm.
What we accept
We will only accept items that are:
- clean, folded or pressed
- good quality with a long potential lifespan
- free of faults or with minor faults that are easy to repair (for example, a missing button)
The best items to swap are good quality garments that you once loved but are no longer your favourites or perhaps no longer fit you perfectly. This way, you’re giving them a second life with someone new who will treasure them.
Whatever you swap, please make sure you are emotionally detached from the item, as once it has been swapped you cannot change your mind.
What we don't accept
We will not accept:
- anything pilled, smelly or too far from perfect
- undergarments
- swimwear
- tracksuits
Please note: we have quality screening processes at our events.
Any items left over after the event finishes are donated to a local charity.

COVID-19 UPDATE: In light of the Victorian Government's announcement, Doncare has made the decision to postpone the Empowered Women, Empowering Women charity luncheon. The circuit breaker may have temporarily tripped our plans to host the event on the 4 June, but rest assured we are working busily behind the scenes with Jane Caro and Bramleigh Estate to reschedule the event.
We are committed to creating the best possible experience for all of our guests and whilst we would love you to hang in there with us while we navigate the next few weeks and determine a new date, we do want to provide you with the flexibility to obtain a refund, should you wish to do so.

Doncare would like to take this opportunity to thank our fabulous sponsors, Bendigo Bank, Bramleigh Estate, 89.9 The Light, Kinexus, Quintons IGA and Woodards. Your support of this fundraising initiative is sincerely appreciated.
Join Jane Caro at the Empowered Women, Empowering Women charity luncheon. Enjoy a three course meal and wine at the stunning Bramleigh Estate and hear from one of Australia's most influential social commentators.
Across the global stage, women's empowerment continues to be a common theme uniting communities and Jane Caro AM is a woman known for saying what's on her mind.
The author, novelist, broadcaster, columnist and social commentator is a weekly regular on Channel Seven's 'Weekend Sunrise' and 'Mornings' on Channel Nine. Jane appears frequently on the ABC's 'Q&A' and 'The Drum', Network Ten's 'The Project' and Channel Nine's 'Sunrise'. She is also a regular panelist on the ABC's top-rating show The Gruen Transfer and a regular columnist for MamaMia, The Conversation, MT magazine, the SMH and The Drum.
#ewew2021 is set to emulate the success of the inaugural charity luncheon which boasted a stellar line-up including comedian and radio personality Jo Stanley, 2015 Australian of the Year, Dr Rosie Batty and award-winning designer and TV personality Shaynna Blaze. In fact, we've invited Jo Stanley back this year to host the event because we know how much you loved her! Rosie has even promised to join us again for what promises to be another fabulous afternoon.

The Warrandyte Historical Society invite you to come and learn about the discovery of gold in Warrandyte and how it shaped the township and community.
Warrandyte is justifiably proud of its place in the gold history of Victoria. Gold was first discovered at Anderson's Creek in June 1851. It was the first officially published goldfield, named the 'Victoria Field', in honour of the new Colony. It was also the first place in the Colony to issue gold mining licences.
This exhibit celebrates the 170th anniversary of the first discovery by Louis John Michel and his team. You'll find interesting and colourful banners on display inside and outside the Museum, showcasing
the discovery of gold and how this has shaped the township and community. They share the lure of gold and excitement around the discovery that continues today.
You can visit to see the outside banners placed on the fence-line of the Museum at any time during the Heritage Festival. To access the banners inside the Museum, please see the exhibition times.
This exhibition is open from 18 April to 22 May 2022.
The indoor exhibition inside the Museum, is open on Sundays, from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm.
There is both on-street parking, and off-road car parks available on Yarra Street.
