I would like to give a big shout-out to the wonderful group Inglewood on Beaufort, who were responsible for putting together the Great Monster Hunt on the weekend. The Great Monster Hunt is a terrific community based initiative made possible through the Stronger Communities grants process. Inglewood on Beaufort are a voluntary not-for-profit group who have gone to great lengths to make sure Beaufort Street, north of Walcott Street, is thriving as a village-like community. The Great Monster Hunt involved young kids all going into a competition to design their own monsters, which they did at the local library. Having designed their monsters, the top 16 were selected to have monsters then transposed onto adhesive material which was then carefully hidden around the forecourt of the library so kids could go on their own great monster hunt. I took my two girls down, aged six—on Thursday—and two, and they had a great time foraging around, finding these terrific little creatures.

Well done to Inglewood on Beaufort for constantly coming up with new and inventive ways to make sure our local communities thrive. We were absolutely delighted to support the City of Stirling with the Stronger Communities grants. It's precisely these sorts of projects that see us go from strength to strength in our local community.
