I would like to use tonight to record my thanks to the Woodlupine Seniors Committee for their work with me on this year’s Biggest Morning Tea in Forrestfield. We were joined by some 211 seniors in the electorate. A good time was had by all as we sang along, drank cups of tea and enjoyed some of the local produce of my seat of Hasluck. In addition to that, many seniors brought along items for raffle as well as a bric-a-brac stall and a cake display. Those seniors, many of whom are doing it hard themselves, in conjunction with the morning tea managed to raise over $1,500. I want to thank them for that terrific effort on behalf of the Cancer Council of Australia and I look forward to next year’s annual Biggest Morning Tea in Forrestfield. My thanks go to the Woodlupine Seniors Committee for their terrific efforts on behalf of all seniors in my electorate of Hasluck.
