Pat Conroy, Minister for Defence Industry, delivered a $90,000 funding boost for the Vedic Samiti Temple, highlighting its role as a hub for family, tradition, and culture in the growing Hindu community.
“The Vedic Samiti Temple is more than just a temple. It’s where families come together, where traditions are given new life, and where culture and history are celebrated,” Mr Conroy said.
The funding has gone towards extending the dining area, a project that has long been a goal of the local community.
“With this upgrade, years of community effort are becoming a reality. We’re backing our local Hindu community, who do so much to enrich our region,”
he added.
Vedic Samiti Temple is a cultural and spiritual center for the local Hindu community, providing facilities for worship, prayer, and community gatherings.
