Thanks for such quick replies.
We are in Geelong in Victoria.
The vines and creepers sound like a great idea, we were going to get it tiered but that was going to cost a little bit too much.

Virginia creeper and flowers in pots that can be removed for maintenance.

You don't say what zone you are in so I'll only be guessing but:
What about clump grasses? Native plants for your area? (You can get a lot of freebies from your local native plant society.) You could also attempt at planting vines on the bank and letting them take over. Ivy mixed with trumpet vine would be an interesting combination. The ivy will creep along and the trumpet vine will produce red flowers and look attractive. You wouldn't need much of either to start. Just patience and a little care to get them started... They would also choke out a lot of weeds and eliminate the need for mulch or any kind of bracing. They would help with any erosion also...

Cheap will be the sweat equity program and not that cheap. Terracing and reinforcing is about the only way to improve it along with plantings for erosion.
Good Luck!
