Today is Safer Internet Day, which is an opportunity for all of us to be safe, respectful and smart online citizens.

In Parliament today I spoke on our $3.8m investment in the Ipswich Central Heart project I recently announced with Senator @AnthonyChisholm , Deputy Mayor Jonic and Cr Antoniolli. This project will transform the city's arts and cultural precinct.

Wonderful to drop into the Greater Springfield Indian Assoc kite festival today. 🪁 Huge thanks to President Mukesh Dubey and the whole GSIA team for your support for me, and for everything you do to promote cultural harmony and community spirit, and support local business.

I'm hearing a lot of encouraging feedback about our cost of living relief measures at my mobile office today at Spring Mountain.

What a Saturday! BBQ in the park, a mobile office, door knocking and lots of colour with Big Gary busting some moves

A lot of good feedback at my community barbecue at Leichhardt Park about the Albanese Labor Government’s Medicare Urgent Care Clinics. @QLDLabor #WendyBourneMP

Thanks to Glebe Road Uniting Church for inviting me to the church's Men's Breakfast today. Interesting talk by former journalist Peter Munckton. @UnitingChurchAu

In Canberra with @GrahamPerrettMP @TWUAus @AEUfederal @ACFID

A young family here talking about how the expanded Home Guarantee Scheme is making a difference for homebuyers in this week's @ipswichnewsQLD . @ClareONeilMP

IDCARE data shows that about $1 million has been lost to scams in Ipswich in six months. That's why the Albanese Government is taking the scourge of scams seriously and introduced our Scams Prevention Framework Bill.

My volunteers were out this morning sharing the good news about the Albanese Government's $1.7B funding boost for public hospitals - including $414M extra for QLD. This will help reduce waiting lists, ED wait times and ramping. Labor created Medicare and we'll protect it.

Thanks to the Albanese Labor Government’s Crisis and Transitional Accommodation Program, Ipswich's @DVActionCentre will be funded $2.89m to build 10 dwellings for women and children experiencing family and domestic violence and older women at risk of homelessness.

I'm back in Parliament this week to make free TAFE permanent, guarantee 3 days of child care subsidy and keep the NBN in public hands. While I'm away, my volunteers were out spreading the good news about Labor's support for Medicare, cheaper child care and our aged care reforms.

We know how important reliable, high speed internet is. I’m proud to be part of a government that’s upgrading the NBN and building the Ipswich and Somerset area’s future.

It's been hard to miss us in Redbank Plains lately as my @QLDLabor volunteers have been out all weekend and through the week speaking to locals about Labor's health care initiatives like the Medicare Urgent Care Clincs, Ipswich Medicare Mental Health Centre and cheaper medicines.

Celebrating 100 years of Patrick Estate State School today, with past and present staff, families and student, from as far back as 1941

We've cut the cost of childcare now for more than a million Australian families. In the first 15 months of our Cheaper Childcare laws the average family with one child in early education or care saved about $2,700.

Ipswich is among the highest uptake in the country for the Albanese Labor Government's expanded Home Guarantee Scheme with 4226 guarantees issued to Ipswich residents to assist them to buy their home. @ClareONeilMP

I met with @MealsonWheelsQ CEO Evan Hill today about the Albanese Government's increased funding awarded to Ipswich Meals On Wheels. The Albanese Government is delivering a $37 million cost of living boost for in-home aged care meals providers like Ipswich Meals on Wheels.

Delighted to attend the Commissioning of @WestMAC94 new Principal Andrew Peach this morning, led by Archbishop @JeremyDGreaves along with #IpswichWestMP #WendyBourne.
