Local Member presents flags for Australia Day
Federal Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid has presented the Australian flag to several Peninsula businesses for Australia Day.
They included the Bourke Rd General Store and Cafe, Blackwall Tyre Service and Mechanical Repairs, Woy Woy Police Station and Bremen Patisserie in Umina.
Dr Reid said Australia Day was an opportunity to reflect on all the reasons that make our country great.
"The Australia Day theme for 2024 is Reflect, Respect, and Celebrate and I think this is a fantastic message for all Australians to recognise," Dr Reid said.
Bourke Rd Store owner Ms Michelle Overton is pictured receiving a flag from Dr Reid.
Dr Reid said the community could obtain Australia's national flags including the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flag from him by contacting his office on 4322 2400 or emailing Gordon.Reid.MP@aph.gov.au
