Vibrant street art chalks up support for R U OK? Day in Coonabarabran.

by GEORGIA SPENCE Sparking conversation around town is proving to be a piece of art, bringing awareness to R U OK? Day and World Suicide Prevention Day. Yarn Support Connect commissioned Zac Craig from @fiestaconcarne to create an impressive 3D artwork of a dog, drawn from chalk.

The aim of the illustration is to bring smiles to faces, create a space for conversation and remind everyone they have a best mate.

The interactive artwork, which is located at the entrance to SPACE

gallery in Dalgarno Street, encourages people to stop and pose for a photo with the drooling pup.

To nail the shot, people are required to stand within the footprints to simulate “walking the dog”, with a second set of footprints for the photographer.

To help spread the word, Yarn Support Connect is asking people to upload their photos to social media, tagging the local organisation as well as #ruok and #worldsuicidepreventionday.

A competition is also being held to name the dog, with the winner receiving a gift voucher to a local business.

Students at Coonabarabran High School served up some delectable goodies and treats on RU OK? Day.

What is ‘R U OK?’ Day? R U OK? is a charity that encourages people to stay connected with one another and have conversations that can help people get through some hard times in their lives.

The idea is to equip people with the knowledge and confidence to help a person in need by having meaningful conversations with someone who may be struggling.

R U OK? Day is held annually in September to help promote this mission and encourage everyone to have a chat with their friends, families, and colleagues and ask the simple question “are you okay?” – and while many might say they’re fine, it’s a conversation that has the potential to change a life.

Community consultation on the draft replacement of the Castlereagh River Water Sharing Plan The NSW Government has developed the draft replacement water sharing plan for the Castlereagh Unregulated River Water Sources 2024.

El Niño declared On Tuesday, 19 September, the Bureau of Meteorology finally declared that El Niño and a positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) were underway.

Wa r m e r a n d d r i e r conditions will be more likely over spring and summer for pa r ts of A u s t r a l i a , u nde r t he inf luence of these two climate drivers.

Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) climate manager, Dr Karl Braganza said both El Niño and a positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) tend to draw rain away from Australia. “ O ver spr i n g, t hei r c ombi ne d i mp ac t c a n increase the chance of below average rainfall over much of the continent and higher temperatures across the southern two-thirds of the country,” Dr Braganza said. “ The Bureau’s threemonth forecast for Australian rainfall and temperature have been indicating warm and dry conditions for some time.”

“An established El Niño and positive IOD reinforces our confidence in those pred ictions. B ased on history, it is now also more likely that warm and dry conditions will persist over

eastern Australia until autumn.”

El Niño events increase the r isk of extreme temperature shifts, like heatwaves and hotter days.

Increased fire danger in south-eastern Australia is associated with El Niño conditions. A positive IOD contr ibutes to g reater fire risk over southeast Australia in spring, while El Niño contributes to elevated fire risk over both spring and summer.

The Bureau made the El Niño declaration after three of the four El Niño criteria were met, including a sustained response in the atmospheric circulation above the tropical Pacific.

The last time Australia encountered both El Niño and a positive IOD was in 2015.

“Around two-thirds of Australia’s driest years on record were during El Niño however, no two El Niño or IOD events or their impacts are the same,” Dr Braganza said.

“El Niño is part of a natural climate cycle that

• GAMILARAAY WORD OF THE WEEK •

affects global weather and occurs on average every three to five years.”

BoM senior climatologist, Catherine Ganter said the Indian Ocean Dipole could have as large an influence on Australia’s rainfall and temperature as El Niño.

“A positive IOD often results in below average rainfall during spring for much of central and southern Australia and wa r mer th a n average maximum temperatures for the southern two-thirds of Australia,” Ms Ganter said.

“Similar to El Niño, the IOD describes a natural climate cycle brought about by sustained changes in the difference between sea surface temperatures in the tropical western and eastern Indian Ocean.”

Since 19 6 0, when reliable records began for the IOD, there have been around 16 positive IOD and 15 El Niño years. Seven years have seen positive IOD and El Niño events happen at the same time.

The Coonabarabran Times is running ‘Gamilaraay Word of the Week’, in celebration of our local Indigenous language.

This week’s Gamilaraay word of the week is ‘wii’ meaning ‘fire’.

‘wii’ – fire

Weekly lamb slaughter is the highest since April 2019 and the largest September week on record Cattle indicators eased over the week Lamb and sheep indicators continued to diverge based on weight, age and quality

Cattle Cattle yardings rose by 6 ,38 3 t o 4 4 ,533 head. The market eased this week, with price movements consistent between saleyards compared to previous weeks.

T he heav y steer indicator eased by 15¢ to 253¢/ kg liveweight ( lw t). T he i nd i c at or eased in every state, w ith mo st sa leya rd s recording a change of between 10 -25¢ from last week. There was less pr ic e movement for heavier cattle than lighter cattle included in the indicator and were priced more favourably.

The restocker yearling steer indicator was an exception to the previously mentioned consistency of pr ice movement , easing by 2¢ to 241¢/ kg lwt. Despite higher ind icator th roughput at R oma, pr ices rose by 9¢ to 264¢/kg lwt, a partial correction after substantial easing last week. This was not a c om mon t r end , w it h prices easing at most other saleyards.

week’s trends.

Ya r d i n g s r o s e b y 20,814 head week-onweek to 239,580. This was primarily due to increases in NSW, where lamb yardings rose by 18,671 to 172,023 head while sheep yardings held steady at 45,066 head.

New lawn cemetery for Burra Bee Dee

On Friday, 25 August, works began at Burra Bee Dee to create a new lawn cemetery at the site, with the potential for a new church to be constructed in the future.

by JIMMY WHALAN The new lawn cemetery will be similar in design to Coonabarabran’s Native Grove Cemetery and will be situated to the right of the existing burial site.

Coonabarabran Local Aboriginal Land Council (C L A LC) C E O, B ra n d o n Nixon said the construction of the new lawn cemetery came after concer ns with space at the existing c e m e t e r y, a s w e l l a s

ongoing issues with water runoff.

These issues with water r u n of f w i l l b e re s o l ve d at the new cemete r y through the construction of gutter ing around the perimeter of the ‘blocks’, as well as the new site being gradually sloped to allow water to flow away from the cemetery.

Mr Nixon said the d e c i s i o n to d eve l o p a lawn cemetery west of the Bur ra Bee Dee’s existing

cemetery was made as the area was chosen for the lay of the land, as well as to avoid disturbing significant a reas sur rounding the existing cemetery.

The new cemetery will be divided into three ‘blocks’, the first of which will be f u n d e d by t h e C L A LC , w ith the rema i ni ng t wo requiring extra funding to be sourced.

The blocks will be surrounded by an asphalt surface and Mr Nixon said

the next project will be to construct a new church adjacent to the new lawn cemetery. “ We h a ve p l a n s to redesign the church and develop a multipurpose venue where ceremonies can be held on Country,” Mr Nixon said.

T h e f ro nt of t h e n ew ch u rch w i l l b e i n s p i red by the design of the old church at Burra Bee Dee, with the addition of large doors to allow for indoor/

outdoor services.

Funding for the construction of this church is yet to be secured, though planning is already in the works.

CLALC has been working with architect, Jo Redden to develop the concepts fo r these ex pansions of Burra Bee Dee cemetery, including both the new lawn cemeter y and the proposed new church.

Mr Nixon said that through the construction

of the new lawn cemetery and church, the CL ALC hopes to accommodate the needs of families who are grieving the loss of a loved one.

“Coonabarabran L A LC wa nt s fa m i l i e s to fe e l co mfo r ta b l e w h e n it co m es to o n e of t h e most difficult times of their l ives in bu r ying a loved one, and the expansion of Burra Bee Dee will definitely accommodate this.”

Land has been cleared to enable a new lawn cemetery to be developed at Burra Bee Dee.

Pushing pedal power with a passion Cycling isn’t just a means of transport for two retirees, it is an obsession.

by LIZ CUTTS Rail trails, back roads, national parks and alpine roads are all a reason for Fred and Bev Hillier to get on their bikes and ride.

L oaded up with 20 kilog rams of clothes, food, spare batteries and cooking utensils, the retirees from Moombi, near Tamworth, cruised into Baradine on their e-bikes last month for a short visit.

“Bev and I are not new to bike riding because since 2014 we’ve been cycling in Europe every year,” Fred explained.

“When we were there i n 2 019, we cycled 4000 kilometres in five m o nt h s , g oi n g f r om Zurich into the World War I battlefields of the Somme, Germany and the Czech Republic. “ But , be c au s e of C OV I D, we’ve never been back. It is difficult at our age, I’m 82 and Bev’s a bit younger, so it’s hard to get travel insurance and so we now ride in Australia. We bought a couple of new bikes and we are giving them a test run through the Warrumbungles. “ We r ode f r om Coonabarabran to Baradine because we

know the Pilliga Forest pretty wel l and over the years had a lot of contact with the late Dav id Joh nst on . S o, this visit is a bit of a trip down memory lane, meeting his family and finding out how he went in his later years.”

Born in Sydney, Fred ser ved a t oolma k i ng apprenticeship, studied production engineering a nd then be ca me a n engineering surveyor, a job t h at t o ok h i m into the bush where he remained.

Over the years, the cycling duo has battled g r uel l i ng he at , sub zero temperatures, and language and security fears on their pedalling adventures overseas.

“Bev and I have been travelling together for 45 years; it is good to have a companion to do things with,” Fred said. “ I i nt r o duc e d B ev t o campi ng when we bought a V W B eetle and went to Munich in the middle of winter a nd t hen he ade d t o Baghdad, but we only got as far as Damascus.

We have done the A mber T ra i l, a t r a n s - n at i o n a l b i k e trail running through Poland, Slovakia and Hungary. So, we’ve had a lot of experiences.

“But in Australia the bike-riding conditions a re d i f ferent, it is a long way between towns and you have to carry more food, more water and you are on a lot of busy roads. The roads are often rough with potholes so we ride bikes with bigger wheels. In Europe, we rode small fold-up bikes, but they are too small for the roads here.

“However, there are some fa ntastic ra i l trails in Australia.

We recently rode the Br isba ne Va l ley ra i l trail, which runs for 161 kilometres.

“One of the advantages of travelling on a bike is that it br ings you back to earth; you can’t carry much. You can

COONABARABRAN PUBLIC SCHOOL: PERFORMING ARTS NIGHT

Knitting together to save lives Lamb Jumpers is an initiative founded by local farmer, Marie Knight. She has organised the distribution of over 450,000 jumpers since 2018, providing more than warmth for both lambs and farmers.

by GEORGIA SPENCE During the previous drought, farmers were struggling to cope on m a ny l e v e l s – t h e y were losing livestock, including newborn poddy lambs.

M a ny l a m b s we r e rejected by mother ewes during the drought and farmers did not have the means to consistently care for them.

If the lambs got cold, they would not survive.

Marie Knight noticed the community struggling.

In 2018, she reached out online to a farmer a nd o f fe r e d t o k n it jumpers for the lambs.

By the end of the week she had given away 700 jumpers. “ T hat f i rst week still amazes me. T he number now is just too big to comprehend,” Mrs Knight said.

L amb jumpers has now become a global initiative, where almost

half a million jumpers have been knitted.

Mrs Knight explained how lambs a re of ten born during the cold, winter months and can not regulate their body temperature. She said knitting a jumper for the lambs and keeping them i n a shed w i l l provide enough warmth to survive the cold.

Grow ing up, M rs K n ight had a grandmother who would k n it jumpers for her lambs during winter. “ I’ve always used jumpers, my grandmother had the jumpers on her poddys so I thought it was normal,” she said.

The jumpers are made for free by knitters from all walks of li fe and from all over the nation.

Postage costs to those requiring jumpers are covered by donations from farmers and local groups such as Rotary and CWA.

The jumpers not only provide a reprieve for poddy lambs, but the initiative has created a global community for farmers and volunteers that has broken a divide between cities and rural areas.

“It makes the giver feel good. It makes the receiver feel good. It keeps the lambs alive and it is an easy way to show someone does care,” Mrs Knight said.

There are hundreds of volunteers locally and globally wanting to offer their time to aid the lambs and the farmers.

For some, knitting a jacket can take a few hours, for others – a few a days.

The outcome highlights the strength of a united community, s av i ng thou s a nd s of lambs.

“The knitting pattern for the jumpers is easy, it’s not technical and aids in both mental and

physical stimulation,” Mrs Knight said. “ People of all ages and abilities can knit for the lambs, as it involves creative thin k ing, pr oblem solv i ng a nd keeping the hands supple.”

With the potential of a drought on the horizon, the establ ishment of initiatives like this are important as it provides hope and connection for those struggling in rural areas.

The lamb jumpers will continue to grow, as it now has a life of its own.

“A s long as people want them, I will keep it up,” Mrs Knight said.

She noted that many older farmers are beginning to worry and most communities are still recovering from the last drought, however, Mrs Knight is confident i n C o o n a b a r a b r a n ’s ability to come together when life gets tough.

More than 450,000 lamb jumpers later, Warkton Valley farmer Marie Knight still gets excited opening packages of brightly knitted creations from across the country and abroad.

Hazardous overgrown and untidy blocks With the warmer weather heading this way, now is the time to ensure blocks are cleared and well-maintained to minimise risks.

Overgrown blocks are a common issue reported to Council, particularly during the spring and summer months.

Warrumbungle Shire Council mayor, Cr Ambrose Doolan said overgrown vegetation on blocks of land could pose an increased risk of harbouring vermin and heighten the possibility of fire within our towns.

“With recent and ongoing wet weather and warmer seasons approaching, conditions are excellent for vegetation to grow extremely quickly,” Cr

Doolan said.

“Residents and property owners are encouraged to keep their yards free from overgrown vegetation to make our residential streets more appealing and protect the community from these potential risks.”

With the bushfire season approaching, and this season set to be particularly dry posing higher risks, it is important for residents to ensure vegetation around homes is maintained and gutters are cleared from debris.

WORD

“I would urge residents to look out for themselves and their neighbours and clear their properties of rubbish, debris and large volumes of growth before we get to the peak fire season,” Cr Doolan said.

If you have concerns about a property with overgrown vegetation that you believe may be in an unsafe or unhealthy condition, please contact Council’s Compliance Officers to report.

If you believe a property to be a fire hazard, you may wish to seek advice from NSW Rural Fire Service.

for WORD

In this interview series, we sit down with locals for a quick-fire chat. Then we ask them, “Who should we talk to next?” And so the chain continues...

Do you have a nickname? Donny.

How did you come to live in Coonabarabran? Moved out here a year ago from Sydney. I wanted a break from plumbing, so I worked on a farm out here and I have family and friends out here.

What’s the most interesting job you’ve ever had? Farming is probably the most interesting.

You’ve had a stressful day – what’s your way of winding down? If it’s a hot day, a couple of beers and a swim in the pool.

How would your friends and family describe you in three words? Funny, interesting and hungry.

What is your favourite season and why? Spring – it’s warm, but not too hot.

What gets you through a long road trip? Podcasts or music.

Have you read any good books lately? No, I don’t read much. I have been listening to a podcast called We Mean Well. It talks about life and it’s kind of like having a conversation, but you don’t have to talk.

Do you have a hidden talent? Or what is something people might not know about you? I am a gun trail-bike rider.

If you could pick a decade to visit on a time machine what would it be?

80s and 90s.

What’s the most used emojis on your phone? Love heart.

If you could have anyone around for dinner (dead or alive) who would it be? Probably my girlfriend – I don’t get to see her much.

And what would you cook them?

Spaghetti carbonara. It’s her favourite.

When was the last time you had a really good laugh? On the weekend, laughing with mates.

What’s something you’re looking forward to? Doing a trip around Australia, hopefully within the next five years.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given? Learn from your mistakes and don’t make the same one twice.

Who should we chat to next? Ashleigh Smith.

Emu Logic Farm excursion Last Friday all our students, together w ith M rs B a r r y a nd Mrs Altmann, joined in with the Tooraweenah Preschool students and travelled by coach to the Emu Logic Farm.

Although the weather was cloudy and cold, the day improved and it was a beautiful day out on the emu farm.

We a l l enjoyed the talks and explanations of how they collect the emu eggs, keep them warm in a big incubator, monitor them until they hatch and then transfer them

t o a sma l l enclosu re with a long, narrow area where the chicks can run. They are very fluffy and have stripes when small but the stripes disappear as they get older. We all got to either hold or gently pat some of the baby emus and it was very special to handle the chicks.

We then walked over to the bigger enclosures to view the one-yearold emus and also the br e e d i n g st o ck , who came t o the fence t o greet us all. Mrs Henley had picked lots of salt bush for us to hand feed the emus and they loved this treat.

M r Hen ley t old us

that emus will eat just about anything, but they especially like salt bush.

Many of us patted them through the fence and they occasionally had a little peck of our hats but soon realised that our hats weren’t food. We enjoyed running along the fence line with the emus following us.

We w o u l d l i k e t o thank Miss Marie and t he pr e s c ho oler s for inviting us to join them for this fun excursion and thank you also to Mr and Mrs Henley and Nicole and Dan Harte for showing us around their lovely, friendly farm.

Hospital design revealed The NSW government has released schematic designs of the $80 million Moree Hospital redevelopment.

The release of the concept designs follows the announcement of the project’s builders earlier this year.

BESIX Watpac was engaged by NSW Health following a competitive tender process.

Member for Northern Tableland, Adam Marshall said the project design was the next important milestone for the $80 million Moree Hospital, funded by the state government.

“The community and I have been eagerly awaiting the final new design and it’s great they’ve been finalised, with some key changes, in consultation with hospital staff,” Mr Marshall said.

“These designs include an artists’ impressions of what the new building will look like, how departments will connect within the hospital as well as the flow of staff, patients and visitors.

“The new Moree Hospital will have a new acute service building with an emergency department and operating theatres, increased bed numbers, a medical imaging department, maternity and inpatient unit, new pathology unit as well as a new main entry.

Growers urged to check crops for Russian wheat aphids Grain growers across central and northern New South Wales are being advised to be ‘alert, not alarmed’ as reports of Russian wheat aphid (RWA) in winter crops come in from across the region.

NSW Department of Primary Industries (NSW DPI) entomologist at the Tamworth Agricultural Centre, Dr Zorica Duric said RWA had been detected in crops on the Liverpool Plains and around Moree in recent weeks.

The experienced scientist is urging growers and agronomists to monitor crops for RWA, and use the RWA action threshold calculator, to help determine the cost effectiveness of chemical treatment.

Initially detected in Australia in 2016, RWA has established itself in south-east Australia and was found in Western Australia for the first time in 2020.

For more information refer to the GRDC Russian Wheat Aphid Resources page or contact your

regional GRDC office.

“Although the infestation levels are currently low, at less than two per cent, there is a rapid spread of the aphids due to favourable temperature and windy conditions, and both treated and untreated crops are showing signs of infestation so growers should be aware,” Dr Duric said.

The Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) has invested in a research, development and extension (RD&E) project led by SARDI with research partners, including NSW DPI, to understand the potential impact of RWA and develop support tools like the threshold calculator to help inform grower decision-making.

GRDC pests manager Dr Leigh Nelson said that while RWA does not transmit viruses, severe infestations can significantly reduce cereal yields.

“Although RWA does not transmit viruses, the aphid's

feeding can cause chlorosis and necrosis of infested leaves, disrupt head development, and in some cases, lead to plant death,” she said.

“RWA thrives on weedy grasses, especially barley grass and Bromus species.

“It persists throughout the summer green bridge on grassy weeds, volunteer cereals and warm-season grasses.”

However, Dr Duric said the presence of RWA in a region doesn't guarantee its presence in crops, and its presence in crops doesn't always result in yield loss.

She said fortunately a variety of natural enemy species have been observed targeting RWA in Australian cropping regions.

"We are encouraging growers to regularly monitor for aphid presence in established winter crops and use the RWA action threshold calculator to determine the cost-effectiveness of chemical intervention,” Dr

Duric said.

“Growers should take an integrated pest management approach and implement the ‘FITE’

strategy (Find, Identify, Threshold and Enact approach) now the presence of RWA has been confirmed."

Designs released for Moree Hospital redevelopment Continued from front page “The construction of a building on the existing hospital site will house the acute services and the existing hospital building will be refurbished to accommodate community health and outpatient services,” Mr Marshall said.

“The design illustrates a central courtyard, with a calming space for patients and visitors alike, while drawing on culturally appropriate features.

“The release of the concept plans and schematic designs is an exciting development for the community and we are now looking forward physical construction starting early next year.”

Prior to the appointment of the project builder, initial concept designs were released in July last year.

Known as the early design, the concept shows how each of the

departments connect with each other, and flow of staff, patients and visitors.

Project designs and plans were then finalised in July this year.

The Moree Hospital redevelopment features a new acute services building, which will house the emergency department and operating theatres, medical imaging department, maternity, birthing and inpatient unit, pathology, and a new main entry and front of house.

The Moree Hospital project is among three major health infrastructure developments in the North West and New England regions.

Gunnedah and Glen Innes hospitals are also to receive multi-million-dollar redevelopments.

The entire Moree project is expected to be completed in 2025.

Asbestos illegally dumped on Grain Valley Way Moree Plains Shire a finalist Moree Plains Shire Council’s community development/liaison officer Jacqui Moore.

Gunnedah Shire Council is appealing for information after “several hundred kilograms” of illegally dumped asbestos was discovered on Grain Valley Way earlier in September.

The illegal act carries a fine up to $1 million and seven years imprisonment for individuals involved.

One concerned resident contacted the Gunnedah Times, sister publication of the North Western Guide, about a large amount of asbestos that had been dumped at the location. The resident said the material was wrapped in black plastic and dumped by unknown persons early in the week. She said authorities had attended but the waste remained where it was dumped several days later.

A Gunnedah Shire Council spokesperson said the incident was being investigated by its community safety team.

“Sometime between late afternoon on Monday, September 4, and the early morning of Tuesday, September 5, a person or persons have dumped several hundred kilograms of asbestos containing material on the side of Grain Valley Road, north of Goolhi Road,” the spokesperson said.

“Council is now appealing for witnesses who travelled this road between these times and may have seen a light to heavy rigid vehicle in this area, or have dash cam footage.

“Anyone with information is urged to contact council’s community safety team on 02 6740 2100, or online at ridonline.epa.nsw.gov.au” According to the NSW government, those removing and transporting more than 100kg or 10m2 of asbestos waste, must use WasteLocate.

This includes unlicensed asbestos removal and licensed asbestos removalists. WasteLocate uses GPS to track asbestos from pickup to disposal.

Those who own the property where the asbestos waste came from are responsible for how the waste is disposed of, even if a licensed removalist or tradesperson is completing the job for them.

Gunnedah Shire Council’s asbestos policy states the waste material can be safely disposed at Gunnedah Waste Management Facility with a pre-arranged booking. But asbestos cannot be lawfully disposed at any of council’s rural waste facilities, waste transfer stations or mobile waste

Sometime between late afternoon on Monday, September 4, and the early morning of Tuesday, September 5, a person or persons have dumped several hundred kilograms of asbestos containing material on the side of Grain Valley Road, north of Goolhi Road.

service drop off points. Asbestos must not be deposited into mobile garbage bins, recycling bins or street litter bins either.

Asbestos fibres can be a serious health risk – especially if they are airborne and inhaled. There is no safe level of asbestos exposure.

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause life-threatening diseases in some people. These diseases can take decades to develop and can’t be cured, only managed.

Gunnedah Shire Council’s policy on illegal dumping of asbestos waste in public places such as parks, streets or nature strips states the action can attract on the spot fines of up to $15,000; prosecution for pollution of land of up to $1 million for a corporation and $120,000 for each day the offence continues or up to $1 million, or seven years imprisonment, or both for an individual (under section 119 of the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997).

The responsibility for cleaning up illegally dumped waste lies with the person or company that deposited the waste. If they cannot be identified the relevant occupier or landowner becomes the responsible party.

Local councils are the appropriate regulatory authority for illegal dumping unless the activity was carried out by a public authority or the state, or the site is regulated by a different authority such as the Minister for Planning.

for NSW Youth Week award

Moree Plains Shire Council was announced as a finalist in the 2023 NSW Youth Week awards for the ‘Best Small Council with most outstanding Youth Week Program’.

Youth Week enables council to work with communities in the shire to deliver a range of free activities that bring an enhancement in community spirit, provide a sense of belonging, and demonstrate how inclusiveness can assist with participation, leadership,

a change in habits and recovery through community activities.

Youth came together and took part in a range of activities from a game of touch football with local police and service providers, to watching indoor and outdoor movie screenings with their peers and community leaders.

In total throughout the Youth Week calendar, events throughout the shire were attended by more than 750 participants.

“To see the enjoyment on the faces of the youth in our shire, is rewarding in itself,” said community development/liaison officer, Jacqui Moore.

Youth Week 2023 was a collaborative effort of council’s partners and service providers that came together to host a variety of events for our youth from movie screenings, fright night, fishing competitions, fashion show, connect days, basketball and art in the park.

Namoi Valley Christian School, Wee Waa, is preparing to celebrate its 40th anniversary with the community. Pictured are NVCS students, Belinda Smith, Oliver Tufui -Smith, Samuel Henderson, Aiden and Erica Petersen.

Namoi Valley Christian School to celebrate 40th anniversary

By ALI SMITH

journalist@nwcourier.com.au

The Namoi Valley Christian School board would like to invite the community to its 40th anniversary celebrations on September 23.

“We’re excited to welcome everyone,” said NVCS principal Peter Henderson.

“You don’t have to have children at the school to attend, and we encourage former staff and students to come along.

“During the day between 10am and 2pm there will be a fetestyle event with everything from face-painting to a jumping castle. Rock painting, badge making, sandcastle creating, hair wrapping, penalty shoot-out, EMU Music live performance, Rotary Club barbecue, and cake cutting.”

As well as family fun and activities, there will be a dinner at The Imperial Hotel on Saturday night, September 23. (People are asked to kindly RSVP to the evening event) And a combined church service will be held on Sunday

September 24 at 9:30 am.

“This is an open invite to anyone from the community to come along and attend.”

Mr Henderson said former NVCS board members, teachers, staff and students have also been contacted and invited to return to Wee Waa to mark the magnificent milestone.

There will be photos on display, so attendees can take a trip down memory lane and reflect on the school’s spectacular history. From big ideas and small beginnings in 1983, when NVCS started as a tiny seven-student school located in an old shop at 45 Rose Street to today, in 2023, when NVCS has more than 100 students on its impressive campus at 51 Rose Street, catering for prep to Year 8 students with a commitment to continue growing in high school year stages with the construction of a new site and buildings at 28-32 Cowper Street.

In 2023, there might be significantly higher student numbers at Namoi Valley Christian School as well as developments in

infrastructure and technology, but the school’s values, purpose and beliefs have remained steadfast over the years, making NVCS a popular education choice for families in both the Wee Waa and Narrabri districts.

“Our foundation is the same; the school has stayed true to its Christian roots,” said Mr Henderson.

“The school was started by a small group of community members who wanted a Christian option of schooling for local children.”

The desires of the founding group still form the basis of NVCS’ vision: providing an educational setting in which teaching and learning of a high standard were founded on Bible-based beliefs, values and behaviours and in which parents had ready access to the decision-making framework.

There’s certainly plenty to celebrate when it comes to NVCS achievements and community contributions in the last 40 years, but Mr Henderson said the big birthday is also a time to look to the future.

“It’s not just about looking back, it’s looking forward to the next chapter,” he said. “Keeping the values of the school, celebrating that and thinking about what’s next.”

NVCS board chair Travis Lions said, “I am excited because of the forward momentum we have at the moment.

“We’ve seen a lot of growth in recent years.”

In 2004, NVCS moved into a purpose-built facility, providing plenty of room for current and future enrolments. And in 2010, a new library and general-purpose area was opened encouraging reading, engagement and providing extra learning spaces.

NVCS prides itself on meeting the needs of all students with fantastic teachers and support staff who assist those with learning difficulties whilst also providing extension work for those who need to be challenged.

In response to encouragement from the community, NVCS made the exciting expansion to a high school by offering Year 7 for the

first time in 2022.

Mr Henderson said advancements in technology and the positive impact it can have on learning have changed in the last 40 years; however, he stressed the importance of still offering students a hands-on experience when it comes to a balanced education.

“As a school, I like to think that we are joyfully faithful in the way we go about equipping young people for life,” he said.

“For some families who join us they will see a cultural difference to what they’re used to, I hope that we are seen as being joyfully different.

“We have the privilege to partner with parents in the upbringing of their children. For 38 years this was supporting parents with children in Kindergarten to Year 6, we now have the delight of walking with parents in the education of students in Years 7 to 8, and Year 9 in 2024 and Year 10 in 2025.

“We’re not just delivering an education; we are involved in the shaping of hearts and lives,” added Mr Henderson.

Seeking entries for Christmas card photo competition Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton is calling for photographers from across the Parkes electorate to submit entries to this year’s Christmas card photo competition.

Each year, Mr Coulton distributes a Christmas card and newsletter, which usually features a photograph showcasing the Parkes electorate on the front page.

“After all of the wonderful entries we received last year, I’m excited to see what our local

photographers will present for the 2023 competition,” Mr Coulton said.

“I’m calling on all photographers in the Parkes electorate, professional or amateur, to send me a photo of your favourite part of our region.

“Iconic images are what we are looking for, which capture the essence of the towns, festivals, people or scenes of the Parkes electorate. Our electorate is enormous and diverse, stretching from

red soil plains through prime agricultural land to rocky outcrops, with plenty of scope for budding photographers to explore.

“Last year we received many images of the flooding which was occurring across the region. This year it would be wonderful to see images of what makes our area unique.”

The winning photo will be selected by Mr Coulton and will be featured on the front page of his 2023 Christmas Card which will

be distributed to every Parkes electorate household in December.

Shortlisted photographs will also feature in the Parkes electorate 2024 calendar, which will be available at electorate offices and on request.

“This is a great opportunity for photographers young and old to receive some publicity and share their talents, with widespread exposure across the Parkes electorate,” Mr Coulton said.

“I will also promote the winning photo, and a selection of the shortlisted favourites on my social media. Entries are open, so now’s the time to grab your camera and capture that winning shot!”

All ages are welcome to enter, however entrants must be a current resident of the Parkes electorate. Photos must be landscape in orientation and taken in 2023.

Entries must be submitted by 5pm on Friday, September 29, 2023 to be considered.
