Spelling Champion Congratulations to 12 year old Jordan Powell from Warragamba Public School who has won the 2010 Premier’s Spelling Bee Championship. This is Jordan’s fourth consecutive win and he is the first student to win both the Junior and Senior Finals. His winning word was dichotomy when his opponent stumbled on emphysema!
Christmas lights There are plenty of houses sparkling with Christmas lights to brighten up the festive season. Marsh Road in Silverdale and Twelfth Street in Warragamba are special. 50 Winbourne Road in Mulgoa is spectacular and you are welcome to park and walk around the garden to look at the display. The lights are on from 8pm every night up to 10pm and 11pm on Friday and Saturdays. Greg and Claire have a donation tin for the Rural Fire Service.

Yet more Cemeteries Another cemetery development has been applied for at 41 Greendale Road, Luddenham for 25,000 plots. This is the 6th cemetery planned for the area within Liverpool Council.
A development application within the Penrith Council area has been made on Elizabeth Drive for a 35,000 plot cemetery, crematorium, and memorial gardens. The local residents are extremely concerned as it will affect the Luddenham Model Park and the area’s rural character. Noise from farm activities will be restricted and the traffic will increase. Following residents’ anger about the lack of notice and the short period of time for objections, the council has extended the notification period until the end of January.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Thank you to our readers,contributors and the businesses that support the Gazette. The next edition will be February 2011 with the deadline 4th February.

I grew up in the rural areas of my country. My parentage was very early called into question because I was conceived out of wedlock. My family was poor. Because of government threats, my family fled our home and went into hiding. I became an international fugitive. After a change of government I returned and resettled in my hometown. I was one of five brothers and at least two sisters. Although I did not have schooling, as a 12 year old I impressed lawyers, academics and ecclesial officials with my learning. However, I continued my apprenticeship as a carpenter until I was 30 years of age. At that point, I embarked on public life. Although not professionally trained, I was highly successful in a number of different fields. I provided regular medical treatment, I was a famous public speaker and teacher. I worked in law, social work and www.mulgoagazette.com.au

personal counselling. I even was engaged in hospitality and catering. However, for my outspokenness and for my radical ethical views, as well as because of my love for my father, the upper class elite took out a contract on my life. I continued my wide ranging and popular activities for about three years, supported by a number of country women. However, a whistleblower in my organisation made false accusations against me. After a hasty trial at which I was acquitted, my political enemies blackmailed my judge and had me sentenced to death. However I escaped death, and was airlifted out of there. I now live in a mansion with my rich and powerful Father far beyond reach, but I intend to return and take revenge on my enemies. Who am I? My name is Joshua… [Ben David = Jesus, Son of David].

Are you Prepared to Survive? Being prepared this bush fire season is an important part of protecting your family and home from the impacts of bush fires. The Bush Fire Household Assessment Tool is provided by the NSW Rural Fire Service to help you to assess your household’s level of risk from a bush fire and make informed decisions about the safety of your household. New South Wales Rural Fire Service recommends that you make the decision to Leave Early on days when: • There is a Catastrophic Fire Danger Rating or • The Fire Danger Rating is Extre me, if your home has not been specially designed, constructed or modified to withstand a fire, or if you are not well prepared. Choosing to ignore these recommendations means you may be risking your life and the lives of your family. See www.rfs.nsw.gov.au

Mulgoa Seniors
Dam levels rising
On Monday 6 December the students from Mulgoa Public School entertained the Seniors Group in Mulgoa Hall. The students gave a wonderful performance with Christmas songs and handed out gifts. The Seniors presented them with a book for the library, plus a drink and chocolate for all the students The Seniors Group then had Christmas lunch at the Edmund Rice Centre Winbourne provided by the Christian Brothers.
Minister for Water Phil Costa announced Sydney’s dams are at their highest level in more than a year. Minister Costa said “Over the past week, we had an additional 50 billion litres of water flow into our dams – that’s the equivalent of about six weeks’ supply. In the first couple of days of December, we saw around 57 millimetres of rainfall over the Warragamba catchment – this is a staggering amount of rain, given the long term average rainfall for the whole month of December is 65 millimetres. “This follows on from a wetter than average spring – this spring we saw 240 millimetres falling over the Warragamba catchment, which is well above the long term median of 192 millimetres. “This good rainfall has seen total storage levels increase by 2.3 percent to 61.6 percent this week and we expect to see a further increase in storage levels next week. “Our largest storage, War-

Mr Costa explained the catchments are capable of absorbing a great deal of water and when the catchments are dry it takes a significant amount of rain to generate good inflows. “To put it in perspective, we would need to see at least 4 days of 50 millimetres per day rainfall across the entire 16,000 square kilometre catchment area to see the total storage level reach 100 percent.” Warragamba Dam was last at 100 percent of capacity in 1998.

There have been many celebrations and events including Grandparent Day, Catholic Schools Week, as well as the completion of our refurbishment to learning spaces and the construction of our new school Hall.

We have some spaces remaining for any families who are looking to enrol for the coming school year. All enquiries should be made to the school office on 4773 4485.

Congratulations! Caine and Shenel Brandt welcome a precious baby boy, Kai Gosta.
Born 7 November 2010 Much adored by his Grandparents, Aunties and Uncles Councillor Judy Hannan standing as MP Judy Hannan a councillor and previous Mayor of Wollondilly announced her intention to run as an independent in the upcoming state election next March. She will stand for the
seat of Wollondilly which covers all of the Wollondilly Shire and areas of Campbelltown. Councillor Hannan says she was forced to make the decision after being stood over as President of MACROC – the association of three LGA’s – Wollondilly, Campbelltown and Camden. In 2010 she held the position of Vice President and the general inference was that she would move into the President’s position. She says this time good sense and fairness have not prevailed and the main criteria for voting-in the new MACROC President appeared to be on political lines. Cr Hannan said that the people of Wollondilly and Campbelltown deserve better than politicians that are good at “the numbers”. Most of us are sick to the stomach of the back room deals of the major parties – many times for their personal benefit - and not for the people they serve. More and more independents are leading the way - they want to serve the people who voted for them are not the party who tells them what to do. Previously Councillor Hannan was a member of the Liberal and National parties and has now chosen to run as an independent. She said more are more voters are deserting political par-

17th June 1944 – 21st October 2010
The family of Kiwi would like to thank their friends for their support during Kiwi’s recent illness and passing. Kiwi was a larger than life character who always had a story to tell and a cold beer in the fridge. Kiwi moved to Australia from New Zealand in 1960 and worked on the Dam as a Ranger until the late 1990’s. Kiwi loved the bush and was proud of his time and work he had undertaken as part of the Water Board. Kiwi is missed amongst his family and all the friends he gathered along the way. While he may be gone, a little part of Kiwi exists in all that have known him. Warragamba will not be the same without him. At Kiwi’s wake a collection was taken to help the Cancer Council with its vital research and $283.80 was raised and donated in Kiwi’s name. Thanks to all those who donated. The Warragamba Workers Club Dam Riders also donated $100 to Cancer Council in Kiwi’s Memory.
The best wife, grandmother, mother, sister and daughter to all of us. You were dealt a crap card towards the end but you took it on the chin and you were a fighter right up until your last breath. You made life fun. You knew you were dying and you never complained. We love you and we will miss you everyday for the rest of our lives. You left us with such a positive outlook on life and we thank you for that. We are all better people for having you in our world. You will be sadly missed. Your husband Jim, children Brad, Chris, Kylie and Matthew and of course all the extended family and friends.

The challenge is to get your team of four across 100km of Australian bush in less than 48 hours - and, collectively, to raise at least $1,000 to help to overcome poverty and suffering around the world.

No rain for OPEN DAY at the pool! Warragamba Pool held its annual Open day on Sunday 5 December with a great turn out, particularly for those West Tigers fans! Local residents were treated to free entry, a jumping castle and a "pass the ball competition" held by the NRL. The highlight of the day was the attendance of West
AUSTRALIAN & CONTINENTAL CUT FRESH DELI FRUIT & VEG
Tiger players Geoff Daniela and Junior Moors who signed autographs on flags, t-shirts, posters and gave away autographed footballs to most of the kids. The local fire brigade and crew came and gave the kids a waterblast they won’t forget! "The weather was finally on our side for a change," said manager Glenn McArthur. "It was our best turnout so far and looks even better for next year. I would like to thank Wollondilly Shire Council for their great support and involment, the firies, the footy players and of course the locals for turning up to support their local pool.”
