Aquamoves, GV Libraries and KidsTown are among the facilities which have opened, however density restrictions are still in place in line with Victorian Government guidelines.
City of Greater Shepparton mayor Kim O’Keeffe applauded the community for its fantastic efforts over the past month in helping to stop the spread of COVID-19 within Greater Shepparton.
“Everyone should be extremely proud of themselves for helping to overcome the outbreak in our region,” Cr O’Keeffe said.
“(Wednesday's) news of the easing of lockdown is a testament to the amazing work of every single resident within the community.
“I am extremely proud of the efforts of our region including the ongoing commitment to get tested, isolate, support each other and get vaccinated.”
Cr O’Keeffe said “the true spirit of Greater Shepparton’s resilience” was on show during the outbreak.
“As we now come out of lockdown let's continue to support each other and help businesses who are able to resume trading get back to the positive positions they were previously in,” she said.
