This week we have all welcomed new easing of COVID-19 restrictions which has seen many local businesses reopen, more opportunities to reconnect with friends and family and for some outdoor sport to resume.

We are now in the Third Step of the Victorian Government’s roadmap for reopening. This supports indoor and outdoor seated service for hospitality, reopening of retail and beauty/personal care where a face covering can be worn.

There is no restrictions on reasons to leave your home and you can have up to two people from the same household visit you at your home. You can only have one visit per day and must not travel more than 25km to do this.

In Manningham, we’re excited to see more people out and about enjoying our community, supporting our local business and we look forward to reopening our customer service centre next week.

Our front counter will reopen at the Civic Centre from Wednesday 4 November, please check our website or contact us for details. 

We are pleased to see more people being able to enjoy areas and some sport and recreation activities across Manningham.

This week Aquarena has increased its booking capacity for the outdoor 50m pool. Outdoor sport for under 18 players and outdoor non-contact sport for adults can now also resume in line with COVID safe practices. Please contact your local club for further information.
While there are a number of relaxations announced, many COVID safe practices still remain including:

• where you can work from home you should still work from home
• mask wearing remains compulsory
• physical distancing is still in place
• personal hygiene practices are as important as ever
