Federal Member for Barker, Tony Pasin MP, today visited Sedan Hall to congratulate the community on securing a $1,750 grant through the Federal Government’s Saluting Their Service (STS) Commemorative Grants Program. This grant will be used to upgrade the flagpole at the historic hall, ensuring it continues to proudly display the Australian flag in honour of the region’s service personnel.

Mr. Pasin also presented the Sedan Hall with a new Australian flag and a portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, further recognizing the importance of national symbols in our community.

“The Australian flag is a powerful symbol of our nation’s unity and shared values. By upgrading the flagpole here at Sedan Hall, we ensure that this symbol continues to fly high for all to see,” Mr. Pasin said.

The Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program aims to preserve Australia’s military history by commemorating the service and sacrifice of Australian service personnel. Sedan Hall is now part of this legacy, continuing to honour those who have served, and their families.

“Recognising the sacrifices made by our service men and women, and maintaining the symbols of our nation's heritage, like the flag and the King’s portrait, is so important for preserving our history and passing it on to future generations,” Mr. Pasin added.

The Sedan Hall community can now look forward to proudly flying their new flag ensuring both the past and present are honoured in this iconic community space.
