New fire station to open A new $4.6 million Fire Station at Young Rd Lambton is expected to open in early July. This larger station will see the amalgamation of the existing Lambton, New Lambton and Hamilton stations under the one roof. The new facility is located at the corner of Young and Norah Rds Lambton, in the former Frost Commercial Kitchen building. The building will also be home to Fire & Rescue NSW’s Metropolitan North Area and Zone 1 offices. The Newcastle Fire Control Centre, which handles major incidents in Zone 1, will also operate from the site. Superintendent Brett Davies, who oversees fire and rescue operations for Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, gave Lambton Local a tour of the new station recently.

Superintendent Brett Davies (2nd from right) with Firefighting personnel and administration staff at the new Lambton Fire Station. The site will also serve as the Area and Zone Offices Superintendant Davies said the new station will provide an even better fire protection service to the local area. “There will be no loss of personnel or firefighting appliances as we bring the three smaller local stations together as one. All up we are looking

at around 50 permanent and retained firefighters and 20 or so administrative staff working at the Lambton site. Each of the fire fighting trucks from the three stations will come across to the new Lambton Fire Station 357” he said. (continued page 2)

This history of local fire fighting will have pride of place at the new Lambton Station. The local community will be invited to see through the station at an Open Day being planned for later in the year.

Gardening bee planned

Lambton Residents Group will hold its next gardening bee in Lambton Park on Sunday 24th July. The Residents Group has ‘adopted’ on behalf of the community the L-shaped garden beds that flank the path near the war memorial gates on Morehead Street. All interested community members are invited to come along and assist with weeding, mulching and planting to maintain these garden beds. A relatively short gardening bee from 10am to 12 noon is planned for Sunday 24th. Please bring along your gardening tools (no power tools please) and wear enclosed shoes. For more information email lambtonresidents@ gmail.com

Trio of benches for Library garden It has been a goal of the Lambton Residents Group since its formation two years ago to have a bench seat funded, built and installed in the gardens behind Lambton Branch Library. Now with thanks to a variety of sources there are three benches! Chair of Lambton Residents Group, Nicola Hirschhorn said “It’s just great to see a vision come together. Only a few months ago we were wondering as a group how we might get just one bench into the garden.” “Next thing, we’ve had the Men’s Shed donate a bench and the labour to install it, our grant application to Council was successful and a local resident has come forward with a donation for a park bench in memory of her late husband.” Nicola said. Thanks to Cr Rufo and everyone involved in bringing this project to fruition. The idea of the benches is to encourage passive recreational use of the Library gardens. In coming months the Residents Group plans to hold some regular reading events in the Library gardens. Stay tuned for more details.

Quarryman’s cottage restored Many local residents may be familiar with the unassuming but intriguing stone cottage in Percy Street North Lambton. Many more would have played in it as kids during one of its ‘unloved’ periods. Over the last two years the property has undergone a complete restoration and renovation courtesy of its current owner Shane Bransdon. The cottage was originally built by William and Harriet Evans, of Staffordshire, who emigrated to Australia with their infant children in the mid-1860s. It was constructed using stone from the nearby quarry at the headwaters of Dark Creek. While the house has become known as the Quarryman’s House, it was in fact a family home sited with an eye to self-sufficiency and the growing of fruit for sale. It contained bedrooms, a kitchen and living room. A cellar beneath the house provided suitable storage for fruit, tools and other articles. An extension in matching stone, with a gabled roof and box gutter, gave the house three bedrooms with a kitchen and living room. One of the bedrooms was later converted into a bathroom. Mr Bransdon told Lambton Local of the pleasure he has had in restoring the building to a habitable state. “Dad and I have really enjoyed this project. It’s been amazing how many people have come down the driveway and popped their head in the door to see what we have been up to.” Shane said. “So many of them said they’d played here as a kid. They told us

Page 4 > Lambton Local > July 2016

Shane Bransdon purchased the dilapidated stone cottage at 15 Percy Street in 2014 and has spent countless weekends lovingly renovating it with his father Paul. The unique property which includes a 740+ square metre parcel of land is now on the market stories of how it was believed haunted or a witch’s house. Shane and his father Paul are justifiably proud of what they have achieved during the two years the project has taken. But now it’s time to move on. Shane has purchased another

historic property, this time in Wallsend. The Quarryman’s Cottage is now on the market. To see more photos and other details regarding the sale search 15 Percy Street North Lambton or check the popular real estate websites.

Lambton Grocer,‘Store of theYear’

The team from Lambton Grocer, (L to R) Mena Sternbeck, Jo Hutchinson, Bobbie Blenman and owner Steve Sternbeck, show off their SPAR Affiliate Store of the Year award. (absent: Kristy Nicholls-James)

Lambton’s own Lambton Grocer in Elder Street has been awarded a coveted Store of the Year award for 2016 from the largest food retail group in the world! Lambton Grocer is an affiliate of the SPAR network. With more than 12,300 stores in over 42 countries, serving over 13 million customers daily, SPAR is the largest, and one of the most progressive and innovative food retailers in the world. Lambton Grocer took out the award against 21 other affiliate stores in the Southern Region which includes NSW and the ACT. Store owner Steve Sternbeck told Lambton Local “It was a real surprise, I had no idea we had been nominated. I’ve had the store for four and a half years now and each year I’ve tried to make improvements to the shop, its appearance, the product range, our opening hours, and it’s great to see it hasn’t gone unnoticed”. The store is now one of just five nominees for the National SPAR Retail Awards which will be presented at the group’s annual Australian Trade Show at the end of July which Steve hopes to attend.

Use your brain for cancer cure

Quiz master for the Cure Brain Cancer Foundation Trivia Night on Saturday 23rd July, Jim Overend is armed with plenty of mind-bending questions for the night

Q: Which of these three cancers has the lowest survival rate? A. Breast Cancer, B. Leukaemia or C. Brain Cancer. The answer is C. Only 20% of people diagnosed with brain cancer this year will survive. That’s one of many good reasons the Lambton Locals City2Surf fundraising team are holding a Trivia Night in support of the Cure Brain Cancer Foundation. The event will be held on Saturday night 23rd July at Lambton Bowling Club and will be hosted by the ever-popular quizmaster of the Club’s weekly Thursday trivia, Jim Overend. There will be plenty of fun, games, raffles and more on the night. Cheese platters will be available to purchase if you’re peckish and of course the Club is open for dinner and drinks. Form a team of your own and book a table of 6-10 players for a $100 donation or purchase as many single tickets as you like for $10 each and the organisers will put you together with a team. To buy your tickets search ‘Lambton’ at www. eventbrite.com.au (a small booking fee applies to online bookings) or you can contact Lee Dedman on 0428 559 137 or Leigh Tickle on 0422 320 731.

Lambton then, Lambton now Lambton Fire Station

In 19th century Lambton, fire in one form or another was the principal means of heating, cooking, and providing light. But the flames that illuminated also had a dark side. On Saturday night 6th February 1875 in Miss Jackson’s millinery shop in Elder Street, the string that suspended the window lamp snapped, the lamp fell, and the shop contents ignited. Although the blaze was spotted and extinguished before much damage was done, this near disaster was the catalyst for the formation of the Lambton Fire Brigade. A public meeting was held, a committee formed, subscriptions collected, and a hand pumped fire engine purchased from Sydney for £40. The engine arrived in August 1875 and was housed in a shed paid for and erected by John Stoker at the rear of his hotel on the north east corner of Elder and Grainger streets. After some period of practice, the engine and crew were first put to the test fighting a fire at the Co-operative Colliery in Wallsend in January 1876.

by Lachlan Wetherall

With the addition of more equipment and new engines over the years, the location behind Stoker’s hotel became too small, and after application to Lambton Council for some of their land, a new two storey wooden fire station was constructed in De Vitre Street and officially opened in 1902. In March 1913 a violent wind storm totally destroyed this building, damaging much of the firefighting equipment inside. In its place a new brick fire station was constructed and opened in 1914, which served the local community for over 100 years until moving to the new fire station site in Young Road this month. Our reliance on fire for the basic necessities of life is diminished today, but our reliance on local firefighting services in times of crisis is as great as when the Lambton Fire Brigade began 141 years ago.

Focussing on your values

A very important emphasis in counselling psychology today is the focus on values. It is common now for a therapist to take a client through a process of identifying his or her values and exploring how much the client is living by them. What are values? Well, for a start, they are not the same thing as goals. A goal is a one-off thing that can be ticked off as completed once achieved. You have a goal to visit Dubbo zoo. You go there. Tick. Goal achieved. You have a goal to shed four kilos. You lose them. Tick. Goal achieved. But a value is something that goes on and on. It’s not a one-off. A value might be not just to visit the zoo, but to live life fully on weekends. A value might be not just to shed four kilos, but to eat and move well to stay healthy. These are not just achieved once, but go on indefinitely. Many of our values come from our parents from the time of our childhood and remain helpful. However, it is not uncommon for adults to adjust or even discard some of those childhood values as not being appropriate or workable in adult life. Sometimes this occurs after a crisis, sometimes as an act of personal growth. Other values arrive during our adolescence and youth and we often take them into our adult lives. So why this focus? Well, generally speaking, people live happier lives when living from their values. Life is less of a struggle and seems to run more smoothly, be more integrated and is often less stressful. We tend to find life more fulfilling and are able to cope better with life’s challenges when we live in concert with our values. Worth a thought. - Stuart Edser

How can a Will be revoked? by Chris Hill-Smith of Appleton Law, Lambton

A will may always be revoked. That is, a will can be cancelled or made void and of no effect either voluntarily or by the operation of law. A will can be voluntarily revoked in four main ways. A person may wish to write a new will to take into account their changing circumstances. In that situation the new will would usually contain an express clause revoking the earlier will. If the second will was then to be revoked, that would not however

revive the first will and a person in that situation would die intestate, with no valid will. A person may revoke their earlier will by writing on the will in such a manner as a court would be left in no doubt that they intended the will to be revoked. They might destroy the will by tearing it, burning it or by destroying by some other means. Accidental destruction would not be sufficient because the act must be accompanied by an intention to destroy the will. A fourth method would be to express an intention to revoke a will in another document and execute the document using the same formalities that are required for a will. With three exceptions, a will is automatically revoked by operation of the law if a person marries. A will is not revoked if the will was made ‘in contemplation’ of the marriage which took place and a person intending to marry their partner would be wise to ensure their will expressly states that it is made ‘in contemplation’ of their marriage. The second exception is that a gift to a person to whom the testator is married at the date of his or her death is not revoked. So for example, if a person marries his partner and later dies, any gift to his surviving wife in his will is not revoked, but all other gifts in his will would be of no effect. The will would in that situation have been partially revoked. There is a third exception in relation to powers of appointments. What about divorce? If a person divorces or their marriage is annulled, any appointment of their former spouse as executor or guardian, or any gift to their former spouse is revoked. Any provision in the will unrelated to the former spouse remains in place. The moral of the story is therefore to update your will whenever there is a significant change in your circumstances.

Treating Cold and Flu symptoms in children

with Danielle Miller, Pharmacist from

Elder Street Pharmacy

When we have a cold or flu it’s tough. When you are a child and can’t verbalise your symptoms, it can be even worse. Unfortunately there aren’t a lot of medicinal products that are recommended for use in children

under 6 years anymore. However this doesn’t mean there isn’t anything we can do for them. We can try the following:  Steam Inhalation can help with clearing the nasal passages and the bringing up of mucus from the chest  Saline nasal sprays or drops also can help to loosen and clear the nasal mucus – to use with these nasal aspirators are helpful to suck the mucus out especially in the younger children that cant blow their nose effectively  Increasing fluids, and supplementing with oral rehydration solution can be useful in preventing dehydration and reducing muscle pain associated with viral infections  Common pain relievers can also be used, and children’s antihistamines can be useful in treating some symptoms such as

sniffles and sneezes.  There are also a few over the counter cough and cold remedies available, as well as herbal options. As with all colds and flu it is important to wash hands often, to catch sneezes and coughs in a tissue, and to try not to share cups or bottles in order to decrease the spread of infection. Cleaning kids toys, as well as play surfaces and door handles can also help in containing the spread. Most cold and flu symptoms should only last 7 to 10 days, but coughs may persist for up to 3 weeks.However, if your child develops a fever, has vomiting or abdominal pain, is unusually sleepy, develops a rash, severe headaches, a stiff neck, difficulty breathing or a cough lasting greater than 3 weeks it is best to see your GP.

High Notes

On Tuesday 17 May, all of our teaching staff stayed back for an extended professional development afternoon, until 7pm, to engage in workshops designed to meet their identified learning needs and to meet the 2015-2017 School Management Plan. Workshops included gifted and talented education, tiered assessment, AITSL Supervising Pre-service Teachers, Module 2 Practice Analysis, Office 365 and OneNote, flipped classroom and recording lessons, and Lambton Learning Ladder. The development sessions provided teachers opportunities to share and work collaboratively with colleagues and allowed time for staff to develop skills, knowledge and resources to support these initiatives. Recently we conducted over 300 report interviews with our Year 11 and 12 students and received valuable feedback on how they are progressing academically, balancing school and their other commitments, and discussed post school aspirations. We surveyed the students to gain feedback on their experiences asking the following questions: •Which course/s has the teacher/s with the highest expectations for you to be successful? •What do the most effective teachers do that has made the greatest difference to your learning? •What school program has been most effective in supporting your learning? The findings will be used as part of our internal HSC review. Due to the generous sponsorship of the Newcastle Sunrise Rotary Club, Maya Al Maraee and Ruby Maughan represented Lambton High School as Iraq at Model United Nations Assembly (MUNA). The event was again a huge success with 18 teams from 13 schools debating resolutions that had been framed on current world events, replicating the General Assembly of the United Nations. In preparation for the event, Maya and Ruby were required to research the history of Iraq and anticipate how Iraq would vote on 16 resolutions, such as the rights of indigenous peoples and the situation of human rights in the Syrian Arab Republic. Brodie McNaughton, Lachlan Bray, Jackson Price, Toby Schmieden, Angela Domingues and Ruby Maughan from Year 11 Legal Studies participated in the Law Society NSW Mock Trial competition which provides students with valuable real-world court room experience adjudicated by a local solicitor. The group has shown excellent team work skills and have enjoyed the challenge of putting their legal knowledge into practice. Martin Rosser - Principal

Happy New (financial) Year Reset your goals

by Chris Stevens B. Fin, M. Acc, CPA Partner at GC Accountants

As you prepare for the new financial year, taking action using these simple tips can help you make sure your finances are on the right track for the year ahead. Regardless of your financial standing or the stage of life you’re in, conducting regular financial health checks is a smart way of fine-tuning your life goals and creating wealth – and there is no better time than the end of the financial year to do it.

Things change in life and work – and your financial plans need to reflect this. Perhaps you want to ramp up your savings, change your investment strategy or pay particular attention to cutting your debt this financial year. Start your health check by rethinking your short and long-term goals. Make them specific, but realistic – and write them down so you have extra motivation to see them become a reality. Work closely with a financial adviser during this process to get the best outcomes for your lifestyle and financial circumstances.

Redraft your budget Perhaps you bought a new car, some new shares or will start to pay higher costs for child care in the coming year. These types of triggers can have an impact on your finances and they need to be factored in to ensure your budget works well for you. It’s obvious, but make sure you update your budget to reflect all your income, including any investment dividends or pensions, and outline all your regular payments. Use this opportunity to review your bills and spending, identifying any non-essential costs that you could cut down on.

A sound financial health check should always include a reassessment of your investment objectives. With the help of a financial adviser, you need to determine your short and long-term goals so an investment strategy can be devised to achieve each aim. Positions can shift quickly for a range of reasons, so review your investment portfolio with a financial adviser. Any changes you make to improve your financial position can help put you on the path to a more positive future. The start of a new financial year is the perfect time to give yourself the gift of a better financial future. Set aside some time and focus on these important financial checks – and once you’ve taken stock, take advantage of the expertise a financial adviser provides. We are here to help you.

Why does my pet have bad breath?

Did you know that approximately 80% of pets have some degree of dental disease? A large proportion of patients that we see for routine vaccinations and visits are identified as having an oral hygiene status that is alarming. Imagine what would happen if you never brushed your teeth. This is the reason why our pets develop dental disease. Bacteria and toxins build up and their daily presence can affect your pets overall health. If this bacteria and toxins enter the bloodstream it can impact on the heart, lungs, kidneys and liver. Dental disease can also be extremely painful. This can all lead to a reduction in your pet’s health, happiness and lifespan. The types of dental disease that can occur are very similar to what we see in humans. Tartar and calculus can form, gums can become infected and eroded and the tooth roots may become rotten. Cats are also prone to developing resorptive lesions of the teeth called FORLS which are similar to cavities in people. You can help keep your pets pearly whites in good health by having regular check ups with your vet. Most yearly exams will include an oral and dental exam but make sure to ask if you’re not sure. Your vet may recommend procedures such as a scale and polish under general anesthesia, teeth brushing, special dental diets, dental chews or supplements. Stayed tuned for next month’s issue for more information regarding dental cleaning and products! July and August are Dental Months at Greencross Vets so please make an appointment at Greencross Vets Lambton for your FREE dental check and to take advantage of the great deals we have on dentals during this time!

Winter is upon us by Anne-Marie Adams, owner/personal trainer at Inspirational Group & Fitness Training The heater and the doona are calling, the comfort food is looking so yummy and our motivation is a bit lacking. However, winter is a great time of year to train. In the cooler months we expend more energy while training to try to keep warm. This in turn burns more calories. Great if you are getting stuck into those comfort foods. Exercise also boosts your circulation, improves your immune system helping you fend off colds and flus and helps you beat those winter blues by increasing your endorphins. This is all great stuff to know but knowing this information and actually getting out of doing an exercise session are two different things. I am sure when the couch, doona and Game of Thrones are calling, you won’t be saying to yourself I need to increase my endorphin levels so let’s go exercise. So here are some helpful tips to help you get that session done (Don’t worry your couch, doona and Game of Thrones will still be there waiting after you exercise) •Set some Winter goals. Knowing why you are going to do this session and what it will help you achieve in the long term makes it easier to get in and get the session done. •Get yourself some Winter workout clothing. You can buy some ‘Skins’ but if you really don’t want to spent a lot of money then layer up. You will be surprised how warm you get exercising in the cold. As you get warmer take the layers off and once you are done put the layers back on when stretching down so you don’t get too cold. •Plan out your week. Book your sessions into your schedule just like you would do with an appointment and then make a pledge to yourself not to miss them. •Follow the 10 minute rule. Get out and start moving for 10 minutes. Once you are moving 98% of the time you will keep moving for the 30-60 minutes you planned to. •Just get it done. I promise you, you will feel better for it. So until next time Love life, dream big and become the inspiration Anne-Marie
