Mount Druitt Needs History To Be Displayed And Seen In Public Areas And Landmarks!

The Mount Druitt Historical Society has always been showing Mount Druitt's history in every way possible to the open public (Click here for info.). George Nicolaides OAM is a prominent member of the his group as well as former Real Estate Agent Reg. Murray. George being a former Blacktown City Council Mayor understands the planning measures used in the past to provide a growing Mount Druitt - Rooty Hill area.

Community infrastructure did just not happen! You can learn a lot from him as I have done so as well.

So what does this mean, we can learn how members of  historical soiceties engage, educate the community and I have just learned by reading one historical sign in Parramatta that this is something that could be adapted within Mount Druitt historical landmarks, even parks, gardens and reserves and maybe within Blacktown City Council itself.

I never knew of William Noller and I didn't know he was instrumental in providing this 'bubbler fountain' within this small Parramatta community park, which is quite tranquil.  I understand he was a former Councillor of Parramatta City Council and was a long term serving member. Anyone that spends 20 years or more in public life  has really dedicated their life.

Why is this important? We must not forget our local history and the people that made Parramatta and in our case the people that made Mount Druitt: William Mason  from William Mason Reserve, Major Druitt naming of Mount Druitt, Shennan Walkway, Bukari Reserve, Fred Crowpe  from Fred Crowpe Reserve, Rupertswood Park and  Doctor Charles McKay Reserve just to mention a few, maybe between Blacktown City Council and the Mount Druitt Historical Society, history can be displayed to the public. I 'm sure there are many out there interested and  then there can be historic walks possibly included.
