    The Googong North edition. Googonian streets, parks and playgrounds. Why we called them what we called them. The Googong North edition. Googonian streets, parks and playgrounds. A lot of thought and research has gone into the naming of Googong North’s streets, parks and playgrounds. So we thought we’d share the stories behind these names that may have already become such a familiar part of your life at Googong. The stories are all rooted in the region’s history. Googong’s parks, playgrounds and open spaces celebrate the rich history of the natural indigenous custodians of the land. The streets pay homage to the early settlers of the region, as well as places and personalities from more recent history. We hope you enjoy discovering a little more about the pre-Googonian era! 1 Googong North streets, parks and playgrounds CONTENTS STREETS GOOGONG’S NGUNAWAL A H N PAST Aitken Street 3 Hale Street 10 Nano Street 17 Alchin Street 3 Hanns Street 10 Nellie Street 17 Bunburung Thina 24 Amy Alley 3 Hawes Street 10 Newton Street 17 Annlouise Lane 3 Hawke Street 10 Norma Street 17 Nangi Pimble 24 Aprasia Avenue 3 Hearne Street 10 Ayliffe Street 3 Heath Lane 10 O Yerradhang Nguru 25 Heazlett Street 10 O’Hara Lane 17 B Helen Circuit 11 Munnagai Woggabaliri 25 Bailey Crescent 4 Henshaw Street 11 Baker Crescent 4 Hopkins Street 11 P The original residents Bambridge Parade 4 Hopper Walk 11 Percival Road 18 and their rich history 25 Banks Street 4 Pickering Street 18 Baxter Loop 4 I Plummer Street 18 Pollack Street 18 Beltana Avenue 4 Ida Lane 11 Beltana

The aim of this work is to improve our understanding of how to our woodlands should be man- aged and to improve their conservation values and perhaps restored to their former glory. Part of the research relates to the construction of a predator-proof fence around much of Mulligans Flat.

  • Weekly Report 17 April 2019
    River Murray Weekly Report For the week ending Wednesday, 17 April 2019 Trim Ref: D19/22129 Rainfall and inflows Conditions were dry across the Murray-Darling Basin this week, with almost the entire basin devoid of any rainfall (map 1). The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) is forecasting negligible rain over the coming 8 days. Map 1. Murray-Darling Basin rainfall map week ending 17 April 2019 (Source: Bureau of Meteorology) Flow in the upper Murray tributaries continued to recede this week. The flow in the upper Mitta Mitta River at Hinnomunjie Bridge reduced from 210 ML/day to 180 ML/day. The upper Murray at Biggara eased from 240 ML/day to 220 ML/day. Downstream of Hume Reservoir, inflow from the Kiewa River at Bandiana receded from 380 ML/day, to the current flow of 240 ML/day. Flow in the Ovens River at Wangaratta averaged 240 ML/day. In the northern Basin, flows resulting from rain over some upper catchments in recent weeks are continuing to move steadily downstream along various tributaries. The most significant flows resulted from rain over the far north of the Basin that generated flood flows along the upper Warrego River. These flows are now moving through the lower Warrego and spreading out through the large distributary network, including along the Cuttaburra Channel that connects flow across to the Paroo River. These flows are recharging wetlands and providing welcome benefits to a fairly parched region of the northern Basin, but are expected to provide little if any significant connecting flow through to the Darling River.
