TWO Mount Gambier children are leading a neighbourhood campaign to have a playground established at a community reserve on Matthew Flinders Way.
Imogen Lines, 10, and Olivia Lauterbach, 6, are spearheading the push for a children’s play space at the currently vacant reserve to service children and families residing in the expanding north-western residential development.
The Stuart Court residents recently engaged residents in the area through door-knocking and letterbox drops, taking their argument to Mount Gambier City Council’s monthly meeting on Tuesday night.
While praising council for its development of the Wulanda Recreation and Convention Centre, the young girls urged the local government body not to forget the importance of neighbourhood playgrounds.

Airports in East Arnhem Land come without security screening (except Gove) and fat chance of a latte. They re little more than corrugated red mud tracks etched out between trees, barely wide enough for a plane to land. Rivers, creeks and estuaries run wild round here when the rains arrive with summer. You won t get in by road; the only way in or out is by air. The coast, the estuaries and East Arnhem Land s savannah woodlands swarm with salt-water crocs bigger than the tinnies everyone gets about in. This chunk of the Northern Territory is almost the size of England, though its population s just shy of 20,000 (compare that to the latter s 56 million).
