Wianamatta Regional Park Opening Environment Minister Mark Speakman last month opened Wianamatta Regional Park to the public for the first time and announced the addition of 200 hectares of bushland to the park in Sydney’s west.

A further 450 hectares of land will be transferred once Penrith Council approved the transfer.

Initially, the park will be open to the public only on weekends until road works are completed in several months when it will be open 7 days a week.

“This site was sold 13 years ago by a previous Federal Labor Government, but we are honouring an election commitment to return the land to public hands,” Mr Speakman said.

“The Government will now get on with the job of making this a world class park, through bush regeneration, weed management, hazard reduction and protection of threatened species.”

“Wianamatta Regional Park will be 900 hectares when completed, linking Ropes Crossing in the east and Jordan Springs in the west, making it the largest Regional Park in Sydney with an area four times the size of Centennial Park.”

The NSW Government will invest $3 million in capital works funding in the upcoming 2015/16 NSW Budget towards  Photo credit: Effy Alexakis, Photowrite. Photo supplied by Office of Wianamatta Regional Park.

Celebrating its 11th year, the motor show is the major annual fundraiser of the Berkshire Park Rural Fire Brigade.

Kyle Pearson, Captain of the Berkshire Park Rural Fire Brigade, says of the event: “The Motor Show is a great event, not only for the brigade but for our whole community. It gives us the chance to hold our major fundraiser, and at the same time continue building our great relationship with the residents of our area.

The brigade is very proud of the fact that the show is now in its 11th year, and that we have been able to continue to hold this event.�

The Berkshire Park Motor Show will be held on Sunday, 23rd August, 2015 on the oval behind the fire station on Sixth Rd, Berkshire Park. The show has something for all ages with many family attractions; including jumping castles, face painting and various food and market stalls. An all day barbecue will be available.

FAITH – ST DAVIDS CHURCH LLANDILO Rev John Hebblewhite A: Lot 257A Seventh Ave, Llandilo P: 4736 3592 Service Times: 10am each Sunday, with additional services held: 2pm on the Third Sunday and 8am on the Fourth Sunday

In attempting to understand human nature the story of Adam and Eve and the ‘forbidden fruit’ is often referred to and history is full of varying ideas that attempt to give meaning of humanity and particular the motivating factors in the development of human nature.

One favourite of mine comes from the Indian Blackfoots of Dakota in the USA. They believe in a god who is simply ‘out there’ and travels leaving behind his creation of forests, plains, birds and animals. He made one day a mother and her child. The mother asked do we live forever or do we have to die one day. He answers by telling the mother to throw a chip into water. If it floats then people live forever. But the mother decides to throw in a stone: the stone sinks and so do we!

Another favourite is that living in China some 3000 years ago it was accepted that humanity began as fleas on the creator god Phan Ku. Yet again: in legend amongst the Eskimo man pushes his way out of a pea pod.

These are but three of the many attempts at explaining the origin of humanity. When comparison is made of the many stories, the Adam and Eve story has an aspect which is missing in many others. Here personal responsibility is stressed. Adam and Eve act independently and with their own responsibility for their actions.

Now anthropology is an interesting discipline attempting to solve the mystery of our origin.

With you Every Step of the Way

Theories abound. Many questions. Many answers. Few that can be taken as definitive.

In Theology the Adam and Eve story is taken as a given but with the rider that in essence it is a reflection attempting to provide answers. Whether Adam and Eve are taken as individuals or as symbols of humanity, the teaching that is drawn from the story is that human nature, as such, is a product of individuality and social pressures: ‘who told you to eat the fruit’ asks God. Looking for a scapegoat the snake is blamed! Now does not much of human nature exhibit this tendency: it is someone or something else who is responsible.

Now responsibility is a real question whether it be of the individual or structures of society at large. Surely the answer is in the commandment- ‘do unto others what you expect them to do for you’ to structure understanding and conduct that determines our humanity.

Do You Have a Child Who is Different?

A Quirky Kid? He or She Does Things Differently to Other Children?

When does ‘quirky’ stop being an expression of the individual and an indication that some intervention is required?

I met a special needs teacher recently who has over thirty years experience teaching quirky kids. I put the above question to her. She said “those who could, would”. So if children in general are able to draw at the age of four then your four yearold child should be able to draw, even if she isn’t that keen on it. If your 6 year-old child isn’t making friends when other 6 year-olds have fit in nicely and found a group of children he can relate to, then your child is experiencing some limitations in his social and emotional development.

The special needs teacher also said that the labels don’t help - lazy, stubborn, aggressive, naughty, bad, stupid, a typical boy/girl, etc, - they get in the way of finding out what is really happening for your child. Is it a medical problem? A physical problem? A neurodevelopmental problem?

It’s very good advice. I’ve seen anxious children labelled as lazy. After I’ve had a chance to observe the child I have asked ‘lazy or terrified?’. The earlier that we seek help for our child, the better our child’s prospects will be.

There is too much reliance these days on Dr Google. Too many parents are trying to diagnose their child’s difficulties and apply ill-fitting solutions. I can’t tell you the number of times a parent has spoken in a parenting group about his/her child’s difficulties and the other parents have jumped in with solutions based on what they think the diagnosis could be. Or a well-meaning relative or friend has told a parent that she thinks her child has autism because she knows someone who has autism and they have tantrums just like that. Chances are your mother-in-law, friend, neighbour, or local shopkeeper is not qualified to make that call.

NOTHING beats an assessment by a qualified professional – community health, paediatrician, clinical psychologist, occupational therapist, speech pathologist. The first point of contact should be your General Practitioner (doctor) because you can get financial assistance from Medicare to help with the costs if you get a treatment plan from your GP. Quirky is absolutely fine, but if your child is limited in one or more areas of development (fine motor, gross motor, social, emotional, intellectual) it can lead to psychological or mental health problems later in childhood or during adolescence, and it’s often much easier to get help when a child is young rather than when the behaviours have become entrenched later.

Of course, you are your child’s best advocate. So if you think that some pieces of information are missing or lacking, or you think you are not getting a quality service, it may be wise to seek another opinion. Keep pushing on because when you do find the right service for your child and he or she is happy and achieving (and possibly still ‘quirky’), it is worth all of the effort.

Time Capsule Competition: Be Part of History!

A time capsule will be buried as part of Penrith’s Bicentenary celebrations and Penrith. Council is running a competition to find objects to put in it.

Penrith’s community is being asked to think ‘outside the square’ and suggest items for the time capsule which reflect the city and the community of Penrith in 2015.

Suggestions and ideas for this competition can be posted as a comment, photo or video to Council’s Facebook page from 22 June to 7 August 2015.

Winners will be selected by Penrith Council and will be invited to help bury the time capsule in a special ceremony at Thornton Oval in September.

Penrith Mayor Councillor Ross Fowler OAM said this competition is an opportunity for people to be part of history.

“Penrith has come such a long way in 200 years; we know this because we are lucky enough to have found documents and artefacts which help tell the story of our ancestors,” Cr Fowler said.

“We can’t predict what life will be like here in another 200 years but we can make it easier for our future residents to know what life was like. A time capsule is a great way to do that.”

To enter, either sign up or log on to Facebook and visit Council’s Facebook page – www.facebook.com/penrith.city.council Important Info • Penrith Council will decide what objects go in the time capsule.

• Objects need to be small or able to be folded to fit into the time capsule.

• Objects can include handmade items, household items and anything that won’t disintegrate over time.

• Entries close Friday 7 August 2015.

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT...

HENRY FULTON PUBLIC SCHOOL? At the end of Term 2, specially selected students attended the Principal’s Morning Tea. Throughout the term, these students displayed excellent behaviour and super effort with their work. Our teachers are only able to choose two students from each class to attend so a big congratulations to those amazing boys and girls.

Stage 3 greatly enjoyed their camp at The Great Aussie Bush Camp at Kincumber. They had a wonderful time participating in many different and challenging activities.

Our four dance groups and school choir have been busy practising for the Cranebrook Learning Community Performing Arts Festival and the Blue Mountains/Nepean Performing Arts Festival. As usual they will be fantastic and a credit to our school and to our wonderful dance and choir teachers.

Our sporting teams have been competing in AFL, Netball and Rugby League games and always display great sportsmanship and fair play.

Term 3 is looking busy and very exciting with everyone looking forward to competing in our Athletics Carnival and learning about the wonderful job that a guide dog does in helping its owner to be independent member of the community.

Council Insists on Essential Services for Cranebrook Residents Following discussions with developers AusPacific Property Group, Penrith Council is insisting that services including a doctor, pharmacy, post office and basic daily foodstuffs continue to be available at Cranebrook Shopping Centre should the development not be undertaken as a staged development.

“The original DA approval was to develop the shopping centre as a staged Development. It is totally unacceptable to Council and the community that essential services not continue,” said Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler OAM. “We are working with the developers to ensure that services and facilities remain in place.

“Cranebrook residents, especially those who are unable to travel, have come to rely on these local services.”

Council has advised that any development applications required to ensure the temporary provision of services will be given top priority. The vacant former hardware site in Laycock street has been identified as a potential location.

“Council understands that the owners are considering the provision of shuttle buses to other shopping centres and we want to ensure these run regularly and efficiently. It is important to stress that the bus service be in addition to retaining basic services at Cranebrook.

“While the long term outcome will be a modern and welcoming shopping centre, it is unacceptable for the local community not to have access to basic services and facilities during the construction of the new centre.

“We also want the new owners to keep the community fully informed throughout the development.”

WHAT’S COOKING

The Best Spaghetti Carbonara Easy • Time 24min • Serves 4

Ingredients • • • • • • • •

400g Spaghetti 1 Tbsp Olive Oil 200g Sliced Flat Pancetta, Cut Into 1cm-Wide Strips 2 Garlic Cloves, Finely Chopped 3 Eggs, Plus 1 Extra Yolk 100ml Thickened Cream 2/3 Cup (50g) Freshly Grated Parmesan, Plus Extra To Serve 2 Tbsp Chopped Flat-Leaf Parsley Leaves

Method 1.

Cook pasta in a large pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Meanwhile, heat oil in a frypan over medium heat. Cook pancetta, stirring, for 2-3 minutes until beginning to crisp. Add garlic for 30 seconds, then set pan aside.

2.

Place eggs, yolk, cream and parmesan in a bowl. Season, then mix gently with a fork. Drain pasta, then return to pan. Quickly add egg and pancetta mixtures and parsley. Toss to combine - the heat from the pasta will cook the egg slightly and form a creamy sauce. Serve immediately with extra parmesan.

Nepean Food Services recently held its Volunteer Recognition Day. The day was a huge success and our volunteers enjoyed themselves. We would like to thank Guardian Funerals for their generous donation of a TV and continued support throughout the year.

We extend our thanks to Nepean Rowing Club for their donation of gift hampers. We appreciate the support as these generous donations enabled us to provide them with a good event.

We thank Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler, Tanya Davies MP Member for Mulgoa and Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith for being on hand to thank our volunteers for all of their efforts.

Nepean Food Services has over 80 volunteers who perform a range of services that enable clients to remain independent in their homes.

These services include frozen meal deliveries, hot runs – a volunteer delivers and heats a meal for the client, social support, Luncheon clubs and special outings for our clients in the Penrith LGA and Warragamba/Silverdale.

As volunteer Don has said: “Nepean Food Services is a good service and we as volunteers are happy to help. We gain satisfaction from building a good rapport with our clients and being entrusted with such an important responsibility.”

COUNSELLING CORNER

Roads Funding to Alleviate Black Spots

With Cait Wotherspoon from Indigo Counselling & Psychotherapy W: indigotherapies.com.au P: 0434 865 429 E: cait@indigotherapies.com.au

Penrith City Council will re-mediate seven traffic accident black spots with funding awarded by the federal and state governments.

Five locations were put forward for the Federal Government’s 2015/16 Nation Building Black Spot Program which has resulted in $400,000 worth of funding being allocated to the projects. A further $301,000 has been acquired from the State Government under its Safer Roads program for two projects.

Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler OAM said Council was pleased that work can start on making roads and intersections safer. “The funding of $701,000 of vital road safety projects in Penrith is a significant achievement for Council,� Cr Fowler said. “Preliminary design work is currently under way which will enable the projects to commence shortly and will result in improved levels of safety and a reduction in accidents on local roads. “I’d like to thank the Federal Member for Lindsay Fiona Scott and State Members Prue Car, Tanya Davies and Stuart Ayres for their continued support of road safety improvements.�

What Do You Tell Your 3 Year Old When a Grandparent is Dying?

Your Dad is close to death, and the time has come to tell your innocent 3 year old what’s happening with Grandpa. You’re thinking everyone is giving advice and I don’t know what to do.

Some of the thoughts you have: • “I don’t know what to say or how to say it?â€? • “Should I mention it because they won’t understand anywayâ€? • “Will I do more harm than good?â€? • “Will it damage them, knowing Grandpa is dying?â€? • “I don’t know what to sayâ€? and many more.

So here’s what to do: Your child knows something is going on because everyone’s upset and crying. Let them ask their questions and answer them in a way that they’ll understand.

Tips to help your child grieve: Help them feel they are secure within the family are a part of the circle of life. Let them create memories of Grandpa. • Take photos of your child and grandpa together • Let them sit with Grandpa or play around him • Drawing pictures of Grandpa • Write letters to Grandpa • Make a “Grandpa and Meâ€? book I’m sure you and your family can think of more ideas to add to this list.

What’s happening developmentally? • At ages 3-5 years children don’t understand concepts of heaven, God or angels. • Be careful what you say to them. People often say, “We lost Grandpa overnightâ€?. The child will go looking for them. • Deal with their concerns and fears immediately to stop any confusion.

Let them know it’s okay to cry, be sad and upset, it’s a normal thing to do when loved ones die.

Cait’s passionate about helping people who have suffered loss. As a leading specialist in her field she has helped people move through their grief, to feel less isolated and alone.

11 Reasons To Stay Motivated During The Colder Months!!

During Winter its hard to stay motivated, eat right and exercise regularly. Here are 11 great reasons to get out in the cold and get moving!!

1. You’ll reset your body: Exercise has been described as a giant reset button. A good workout will block cravings, improve your mood and even help you sleep.

2. Your clothes will fit better: Consistent exercise will tone and tighten your body, causing your clothes to not only fit better but to also look nicer.

3. You’ll be less stressed: A good workout invigorates your muscles, leaving you relaxed and less stressed.

4. You’ll have more energy: Research proves exercise increases energy levels.

5. You’ll be stronger: Exercise improves muscle strength and endurance, two things that you use throughout each day.

6. You’ll burn calories: Excess body fat is made up of stored and unused calories. Fight back by burning loads of calories with my fat-blasting workouts.

7. You’ll be more confident: A consistent exercise program will do just that. As your body becomes more fit, watch as your confidence sky-rockets.

8. You’ll have fun: Believe it or not, exercise can be extremely enjoyable. Find a mode of exercise that gets you excited.

9. You’ll sleep better: Exercise is a powerful sleep aid. Your tired muscles encourage your body to quickly fall asleep so they can get their overnight repair work done.

10. You’ll feel great: Vigorous exercise releases natural endorphins (happy hormones) into your blood stream that dissolve pain and anxiety.

11. You’ll look amazing: Are you happy with the shape and size of your body? Regular exercise works wonders on your physique. Within a few weeks you’ll see shape and tone in all the right places.

Simply call or email to let me know that you’re ready to get started. I’ll create a personalised fitness and food plan that’s just right for you and together we will get you into the best shape of your life!

The government remains committed to the retention of emus on the former ADI site.

The emu habitat will first be declared as Regional Park and once rehabilitated to nature reserve status, its level of protection will be increased.

Wianamatta Regional Park is a great addition to the green space that snakes its way through Western Sydney, giving the community more places to relax and to play closer to home.

Consultation with the local Aboriginal community will continue and focus on the Park’s rich Aboriginal heritage and to provide access for traditional cultural purposes.
