New ways to play, imagine and explore are proposed for the St Kilda Botanical Gardens play space ✨🌳🛝

Last year, we asked what you valued most about the play space and what you’d like to see in its future.

We've used your feedback, along with ideas from local schools, to develop a draft design inspired by the qualities people value most about the play space.

It also proposes more nature play, climbing and improved accessibility.

Take a look at the draft design and share your feedback to help shape the final outcome: https://haveyoursay.portphillip.vic.gov.au/st-kilda-botanical-gardens-play-space-upgrade

Don’t let your jack-o'-lantern go to waste! 🎃

Once your carved pumpkin has had its moment in the spotlight, place it in your FOGO bin so it can be turned into valuable compost instead of ending up in landfill.

Remember, your FOGO bin isn't just for garden clippings. You can also dispose of:
✅ Fruit and vegetable scraps
✅ Leftovers and mouldy food
✅ Meat and seafood
✅ Loose tea leaves and coffee grounds

P.S. If you've decorated for Halloween, pack those decorations away for next year where possible. Reusing them helps reduce waste and keeps reusable items out of landfill 👻

It's spooky season, and our Waste and Recycling Team sees some frightening things every day 👻🎃🗑️

Batteries, vapes, food waste in landfill bins and soft plastics in recycling are just some of the scary items our Team encounters.

Incorrect disposal can contaminate recycling, damage equipment and create unnecessary costs for the community.

No to Nangs. Yes to Healthier Communities.

Nitrous oxide misuse is leaving a growing mark on our City. From preventable health harms to littered streets, parks and beaches, our community is paying the price.

Discarded nitrous oxide cylinders are becoming an increasingly common sight across Port Phillip.

That's why we've written to Victorian and Commonwealth Ministers and lodged a submission with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), highlighting the significant health, community safety, environmental and financial impacts of nitrous oxide misuse.

We're advocating for stronger regulation and practical solutions to reduce harm, protect public spaces and support a healthier, safer community.
