Editor’s Notice Board Welcome to the June 2015 issue of Your Child in Whittlesea!

Congratulations to all of our finalists in our Cover Child Competition for 2015! The Winner of the Competition is Isaac (4), who is featured on our front cover this month. It was a very tough process to decide on just one winner, especially with so many gorgeous entries. Thank you to all our entrants, and keep your eye out for our next Cover Child Competition.

This month, on page 7, we have a review of a book titled “Setting Goals Using the SMARTEST Method” by Brian McAleer. This book is great for those of us who have difficulty translating our goals into action. Readers who have older children can also share these principles with them.

We have a copy of this book to giveaway. Keep an eye out on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/YourChildinWhittlesea for details on how you can enter for a chance to win. If you are not already a part of our Facebook community, please head over to our Facebook page and LIKE our page so you can become a part of our online community.

Please remember to shop local and support the wonderful advertisers that enable us to provide this magazine, free of charge, to families like yourselves. Please make sure you mention that you saw them in Your Child in Whittlesea.
