HARDINGHAM
When I was growing
up, ‘home’ was our
farm at Unicup,
seventy kilometres
East of Manjimup,
where my parents
farmed sheep, cattle
and vegetables.
Despite the hard work
that came with clearing
and developing our
farms, I had a beautiful childhood, with my parents,
four siblings and extended family never far away.
After initially studying physiotherapy for eighteen
months, I converted to a degree in primary
education; a decision I’m so glad I made. I am a
very proud teacher and feel privileged to make an
impact on the lives of our Corrigin kids. I strongly
believe that country kids have something extra
special to offer and there is no limit to what they
can achieve.
Since being elected to Council in October 2015, I
have been on a huge learning curve to understand
the ins and outs of Local Government and
collaborate with my fellow councillors. I represent
Council on the Corrigin Historical Society, the
Corrigin Recreation and Events Centre committee
and the Giggle Pots Day Care committee, which I
feel gives me an insight into the past, present and
future of our Corrigin community.
One of the most wonderful
aspects of my time on Council has
been understanding the power of
work, committed volunteers do in and
around Corrigin and the benefits
we all enjoy.
There was a time I would never had imagined I
could love a place as much as ‘home’, but after ten
years in Corrigin with Tim, I can’t imagine living,
working or raising our children anywhere but here.
Wishing everyone a safe and happy harvest and
holiday season.
