: Australian broadcasting icon John Laws has passed away, aged 90 🕊️🎙️

From his beginnings in Bendigo in 1953 to becoming one of the most powerful voices in Australian media, Laws shaped conversations, influenced politics, and spent more than seven decades on air.

He was inducted into the Australian Media Hall of Fame and signed off for the final time in November 2024.

An unmistakable voice — and the end of an era in radio.

🎃🧛 : HALLOWEEN MAGIC! ’s streets came alive last night for what locals say was the biggest turnout our town has ever seen! 🤩👻

Hundreds of kids, parents and grandparents set out for a spook-tacular night of trick-or-treating.

The town was peppered with spooky displays — from Regent Street to Thomas Street — but it was the newer, family-friendly pockets of John Potts Drive, Loughan Road and Hayes Crescent that drew the biggest crowds.

Like a mini theme park, it was an endless stream of costumes, candy and cheer. The atmosphere was electric — you couldn’t find a park, or a house without laughter!

Massive credit to all the families who took part — and the amazing homes that made it all possible 🙌
