Local Good - Players jumping for ball

Whether it's through raising funds or being there to provide assistance, Telstra lends a supporting hand to communities all over the country. We do this through a wide range of local sponsorships and initiative programs.

Over the last 2 years, through the True Supporter campaign, Telstra has contributed more than $350,000 to over 1,100 local sporting clubs and leagues across Australia, helping them achieve their goals.

Alongside our national Surf Life Saving sponsorship, Telstra’s Answer the Call campaign has also generated much needed funds to assist local life saving clubs across the country, keeping our beaches safe.

Telstra has made contributions to local partnerships such as charities, volunteer organisations and fundraising initiatives, providing support, where it’s needed most.

This grass roots approach is illustrative of the commitment we have to the communities in which our people live and work.

We look forward to continuing our commitment, now and into the future.

I'm still buzzing after the first music rehearsal for Pecan Summer last night! What a thrill to be working with my Opera Australia mates Ros Illing and Dr. David Kram after all these years!

Back in Melbourne!
I'm finally back home in Melbourne and can't believe how COLD it is!! I was off in Perth for 5 days last week to take choral workshops in Bunbury and Perth...I was hoping the weather was going to be warmer there than here in Melbourne....come on Spring...we're ready for you now!I had a fabulous few days running choral workshops and enjoyed the beautiful 20o sunshine and blue sky and some fine WA food - sorry Melbourne :(  Whilst in Perth, I discovered a wonderfully talented 16 yo young accompanist in Bunbury who is sure to have a huge future...another John Foreman and Adam Przelowcki...
