The Belconnen Community Council is a volunteer-led community organisation. Our role is to foster Belconnen's community identity and to be a strong voice for the community.

BCC public meetings are generally held on the third Tuesday of each month from February to November, starting at 7pm in the Community Room, upstairs at the Belconnen Library on Chandler Street. Meetings are public, and anyone who lives, works, studies or owns property in Belconnen is invited to participate.

Belconnen Community Council shared Chabad ACT's post.

This is appalling ☹️ if you know something about this incident please contact ACT Policing on 13 14 44 or Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000Spotted by a member of our community this morning in Mt Rogers Reserve, Fraser, Canberra.
Update:
The context here is repeated and ongoing vandalism and hate crimes targeting the local Jewish community. Two seperate ongoing police investigations to find the perpetrators still out there. White supremacist leaflets being disseminated on cars, neo nazi propaganda being shared by local high school age students, Holocaust denial and so on.
A growth in extremism on the far right and far left.
There is a lot more hate being seen now that hasn’t been seen in recent times.
