Young volunteer recognised at Avoca Australia Day breakfast

IN Avoca, residents gathered for the annual Australia Day breakfast on Monday hosted by the Avoca Men’s Shed, where the Noel Watson Matilda Award was presented. The annual award is named after local musician Noel Watson, who performed Waltzing Matilda in the 1988 VFL Grand Final. This year’s recipient was Winter Rowe, recognised for her dedication to volunteering at the Avoca Riverside Market, her creativity, and her positive influence as a role model for other students.
