Four new probationary constables will commence duties in the Ku-ring-gai Local Area Command after they attested at a formal ceremony at the Goulburn Police Academy last month.

Member for Ku-ring-gai Alister Henskens SC welcomed the new police officers into the area and commended the exceptional work of the local police.

“The NSW Police Force works tirelessly every day to target crime and keep our community safe. We are all thankful for their vigilance and service,” Mr Henskens said.

“It is pleasing to have these additional constables working in our local area.”

Deputy Premier and Minister for Police Paul Toole congratulated the newest recruits in Goulburn.

“The students of Class 352 have committed themselves to eight months of training at the Police Academy and should be acknowledged for their achievements,” Mr Toole said.

“Our current police officers across the state will welcome the new probationary constables over the coming weeks as they join the beat in regional, rural and metro communities.

“The NSW Government is proud to offer its continued support to the NSW Police Force as we strive to keep the people of NSW safe.”

The NSW Government announced in 2019 the delivery of 1,500 additional officers over four years to enhance community safety across NSW.

Class 352 includes 142 men and 60 women from all ages, backgrounds and regions across the state and country.
