Sophia MacRae was elected to the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters in the South Australian Local Government elections of November 2010, as one of three Councillors representing the Maylands/Trinity Ward.

This Ward comprises Maylands, Stepney, Evandale, Trinity Gardens, St Morris Firle and some of Payneham South too.

Sustainable House Day

On Sunday 12th September I went along to see a wonderful property in St Peters that was one of the featured houses in Sustainable House Day 2010 . Marianne Frommer and John Sved hosted a continuous stream of visitors through their native garden and raised veggie beds and their very cleverly designed house. Marianne and John took advantage of the natural aspects of the block to design their house so it uses minimal energy and water, but is comfortable and welcoming.

I am very interested in finding ways to make it easier for people to build, renovate, retrofit and adapt their houses so that they can utilise the wealth of knowledge that is out there for living in a more energy and water efficient and cost effective manner.
