Direct support will be provided to schools in communities experiencing high cost of living pressures and food insecurity.

The health and wellbeing of students is important, as we know a student with a healthy diet and a full stomach performs not only better in the classroom but will develop healthy habits that can last a lifetime.

Plus, $500,000 to deliver healthy food options at 253 Queensland state schools

$1,000 will be slashed up front thanks to the Queensland Government and an extra $300 from the Federal Government. 

That means most Bayside households won’t pay a cent on their energy bill until March 2025.

Plus, Bayside small businesses will also receive $650 off their bill.

It’s only possible because we’re making the multinational mining companies pay their fair share and because we kept our energy assets in public hands.

 $1300 MEGA Energy Rebate 

From 5 August, the cost of all Translink public transport services will be slashed to 50 cents, no matter where you live or how far you travel.

New Premier Steven Miles’ number one priority is taking pressure off Queenslanders’ household
budgets. The upcoming budget will deliver the biggest cost of living relief in Queensland’s history.

As part of this unprecedented budget, the Premier has announced from 5 August 2024 the Miles Labor Government will lower all public transport fares to 50 cents a trip for 6 months.

By lowering fares to 50 cents we’re taking pressure off household bills and easing congestion. 

It’s important that Caucus demonstrate how the Miles Government is putting more money back in the
pockets of Queenslanders and taking cars off the road.

If you are travelling, well wishes for a safe journey, and if you are staying local, may you enjoy all that our beautiful Bayside has to offer.

2023 has been full of progress and milestones for our Bayside. 

From major classroom and infrastructure upgrades for local schools and the Lindum Station Precinct, to cost of living support, to major investments in the future of the Wynnum Fringe Festival, I am so proud of what I have been able to achieve for our community.

As we get closer towards the school holidays, I encourage Baysiders to keep an eye on our Bayside. 

You can report suspicious activity at our schools to School Watch on 13 17 88, report non-urgent matters to Policelink on 131 444 or online, or call 000 if you see a crime in progress. 

Together, we can keep our Bayside safe.

Finally, I would like to thank Baysiders for your ongoing support. 

It is a privilege to serve as your State Member for Lytton and I can’t wait to see what we can achieve together for our Bayside in 2024.
