Supporting The Shaka Project
June 18, 2026
Team Fundraiser for The Shaka Project
Recently, our team came together for a fundraising morning tea in support of The Shaka Project, an organisation dedicated to promoting positive mental health, wellbeing and meaningful conversations within our communities.
It was wonderful to see staff get behind the cause, enjoy some great food, and contribute to an important initiative that aligns closely with our commitment to supporting wellbeing both in and outside the workplace.
Thank you to everyone who donated and helped make the morning a success.

If you've driven past our office recently, you may have noticed some changes underway! We're excited to share that installation of our new Brentnalls Western Victoria signage has commenced. Like many outdoor projects, the recent weather has caused a few delays, but we're looking forward to seeing the finished result once the weather improves! The rebrand represents an exciting new chapter for our firm, while maintaining the same trusted team, local knowledge and commitment to supporting our clients. We think it will be well worth the wait!
Over the past few months we've celebrated a number of team birthdays at Brentnalls Western Victoria. A belated happy birthday to Andrew, Chris, Bec, Chloe, Toni, Sam and Michael ("Pechy") ! We hope you each enjoyed celebrating your special day with family and friends. Thank you for everything you do for our clients, our team and our communities. We wish you all the very best for the year ahead.
Division 296 – Commencement Approaching Earlier this year, we outlined the proposed Division 296 tax changes affecting individuals with superannuation balances exceeding $3 million. With the commencement date of 1 July 2026 now approaching, clients who may be impacted should consider reviewing their superannuation and investment strategies. The new Division 296 tax is expected to apply to individuals whose total superannuation balance exceeds $3 million. While only a small percentage of Australians are expected to be impacted, the measure has attracted significant attention due to its potential implications for high-balance superannuation accounts. At the time of writing, the legislation is expected to commence from 1 July 2026, with the first assessment period beginning from that date. If you have questions regarding the Division 296 changes or would like to discuss how the new rules may apply to your circumstances, please contact our Superannuation team.
