Welcome to our fi rst publication for 2014. By the time you receive this copy, the kids will be back at school and we will all be back in our regular daily routines. The festive season will be but a mere memory.

Many of us would have enjoyed some wonderful time with family and friends, others experiencing much anticipated time away. Whichever way you celebrated the festive period, I do trust that you enjoyed sharing it with those close to you.

We return with our regular columns including Parents Corner where Narelle highlights some key information about ‘Looking after yourself’ on page 9. While Rhonda Rolfe outlines some interesting points about stress in our new Health column on page 10.

Of course, with Valentine’s Day just around the corner we have some truly sweet recipes on page 14 to tempt your taste buds, why not give them a try and share them with someone you love!

The team at the District Gazette wish all of our readers a truly wonderful 2014 and we look forward to sharing the latest and greatest happenings with you.

For now, enjoy Your Community News and remember as you start to write the pages of 2014, ‘whatever you decide to do, make sure it makes you happy’.

Last month, local charity, Little Wings completed its fi rst fl ight service for Nepean Hospital to get a family back home to Brisbane.

The McGonigle family were down from Brisbane for holidays when 12yo Kieran became unwell. After initially seeking treatment

for stomach pains, Kieran became very unwell and was taken to Nepean Hospital with a severe perforated appendicitis.

Following his operation he was required to remain in hospital for another 5 days which meant the family could no longer use their return fl ight tickets home.

Little Wings has been in discussion with Shannan Waddups who is the Nurse Unit Manager – Paediatrics at Nepean about providing support for children attending the hospital.

Whilst most of Little Wings fl ights support children attending Westmead Hospital, we wanted to provide local community support services where possible, and this was our fi rst opportunity to do so.

Kieran and his sisters Rhianna, Akiesha and their Nana were picked up in our Little Wings transporter, donated by Hyundai Australia, and taken to the airport for their fl ight home.

Nepean Hospital often has families on Holidays where a child is injured, or becomes ill such as Kieran did, and its exciting to be able to provide a support service to help these families at a diffi cult time. Little Wings is able to pick up from the hospital and look after everything to get the family back home quickly & safely at no cost.

The bushfi res that devastated the Blue Mountains in October showed Penrith’s Citizen of the Year Peter Camilleri at his best. Mr Camilleri turned his business, Penrith Storage King, into a collection point for donated goods to help those who had lost their homes. The business also operated as a drop-off point for water and supplies for the Rural Fire Service (RFS) and

State Emergency Service (SES). Mr Camilleri is one of seven City residents who were awarded Australia Day honours at a formal dinner held at the Civic Centre on Thursday, 23 January.

Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler OAM said Mr Camilleri remained on call after hours throughout the fi res to assist those who needed help. “It is this generosity of spirit that has led to Mr

Camilleri being awarded Penrith’s Citizen of the Year,” Cr Fowler said. “Mr Camilleri continued to run his own business during this period, while addressing the needs of those aff ected by fi re. “He even donated storage space to fi re victims, so they could keep their sentimental items safe. It was an incredibly generous eff ort overall.”

Penrith’s Sports Person of the Year was awarded to Bede Johnston who competed in the Ironman Australia Triathlon in Port Macquarie in May 2013 in memory of his sister Kate who lost her battle with Juvenile Xanthogranulomas, an extremely rare blood disorder, in 2012. He raised over $5000 for the Leukaemia Foundation and qualifi ed for the World Championships that were held in Hawaii last October.

Local Appreciation Awards were also awarded to Robert and Joyce Moynahan, Phil Lacey, Elizabeth Reibelt and Gina Field.

Australia Day was a tale of two lambs for me this year. Sam Kekovich was back again, the self proclaimed "lambassador" calling on Australian parents to "educate the new generation about the perils of a lambless life" since "teaching a tot to love lamb is the pressing duty of every parents". Well, Sam, I did my part - I cooked up a fantastic butterfl ied leg of lamb. (my children still went for the sausages!).

Australia Day fell on a Sunday this year and at St Tom's we love our lamb too -"the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the

world" (John 1:29). This lamb is not a piece of meat, he is the Son of God, Jesus Christ. This lamb sacrifi ced his life to off er salvation to a world that could not save itself. To lay down your life for your friends and nation is truly Australian. Jesus laid down his life for a world that turned their back on him.

This lamb should be celebrated and be taught to every generation and to use the bluntness of Sam Kekovich "you know it makes sense". I'm Adam Taylor and this year why not join me for Christianity Explained. 1 night a week for 6 weeks learning about the "other" lamb. Enquiries call me on 4730 3434.

Compared to even 20 years ago, it can be reasonably asserted that the individual is confronted with information ‘overload’, The world wide web is equivalent to our day in impact as was the invention of the printing press in the 15th century. But as then, so now, importance lies in how

information is utilized. History has taught us that often it can be used in such a way that results can be devastating.

Recall the rise of the Nazi Party in the early 1930’s and the terrible climax when information was directed to a given purpose. The Nazi dream became a nightmare. Then again information can be used to achieve positive results. Note how gradually, not only individuals, but corporate bodies both government and private, are realizing that we live in a world in which the eco systems cannot be ignored.

So it is with religious information. History has taught us that communities, even nations have always had their gods. Indeed religion is one of, if not the most powerful force, which determines human reality. Whether it is directed to ‘being with god’ or ‘being without god’ religion is part and parcel of humanity. In our time religion ‘suff ers’ from information ‘overload’.

In the multi cultural, multi religious world many ‘voices’ are heard all proclaiming that their religious persuasion is the right one. Even the atheist is convinced that ‘no belief’ in a god is the right one. Within this context the Christian Scriptures in

the writings of St John makes an interesting and challenging request: “Try [test] the spirits to see if they are of God”. Within the context of information overload this is a particular challenge to the individual because the individual knows that there is a multi cultural and multi religious world that has many and particular life styles.

Most people live a life style basically dominated by what they were born into and in what they grew up in. Within that life style the challenge of St John still holds good. The question is ‘which way’? Where is truth to be found? Surely the answer is governed by two vital aspects of the individual. The fi rst is honesty: governed by a good conscious to take the challenge recognizing it is what we are and do that determines ‘which way’.

The second is charity: the diffi cult reality of recognizing that all humanity, no matter what race, requires our love. This is a lesson that throughout history again and again that has been ignored.

Thus the religious quest, even evident in those who disregard allegiance to any organized form is a constant in life. St John’s challenge governed by honesty and the practice of charity certainly assists in answering the question ‘where is truth to be found’ amongst the volume of ‘information overload’.

Top Results, Top Students!The St Paul’s Grammar School, Penrith, class of 2013

International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma students received their results last month, highlighting the long history of high academic achievement at St Paul’s.

Principal Paul Kidson congratulated students, families and staff , noting that these outstanding results come from their collective eff orts.

Results released showed that International student, Sereibanndith Seang of Phnom Penh, Cambodia, was the Dux of St Paul’s from the class of 2013 with an IB score of 43 out of a maximum possible 45, equating to an Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) of 99.60.

A total of seventeen students achieved IB scores of 37 or above, equating to ATARs above 95. The number of students in the cohort this year was 63. IB Diploma results are not included in school rankings based on HSC scores and as such do not report that St Paul’s Grammar School is one of the best schools in NSW in terms of academic results, in that two thirds of our Year 12 graduates this year were IB Diploma Candidates.

Other top scoring IB Diploma students included Nicholas Coulshed of Mount Riverview, Lachlan Johns of Blaxland and Veronica Mitchell of Orchard Hills, all with IB 42 (ATAR 99.25); School Captain Susannah Hoff mann of Bligh Park and Sarah Smith-Wade of Springwood both with IB 41 (ATAR 98.70) and Ryan Lin of South Penrith with IB 40 (ATAR 98.05).

St Paul’s students have a long tradition of exceptional IB results with many scores in the 40’s (ATAR above 99) in the past seven years. St Paul’s long-term average is an ATAR of 92 from over 600 IB Diploma graduates. The world average has an ATAR equivalent of 80.

Veronica Mitchell of Orchard Hills (IB 42: ATAR 99.25) is hoping for placement in Communications / Law at the University of Technology, focusing on the study of Internationalism and languages (French): “Being a Captain of Cornwallis House, involved in the service learning projects of the School, from the Congo, Arnhem Land to Cambodia, I really want to contribute to global social justice initiatives.”

St Paul’s off ers a continuum of IB education from Pre-K-12, the only school to do so in NSW. It was one of the fi rst schools to off er the IB in Australia, beginning with the Diploma Programme in 1990. It was the fi rst school to off er the IB Primary Years and Middle Years Programmes, being authorized by the IB Organization to off er both in 2003, becoming the third school in Australia to off er all three IB Programmes. St Paul’s remains the only school in NSW to off er all three IB Programmes. Each year half to two thirds of the St Paul’s Year 11 and 12 students have studied the IB Diploma Programme.

PARENTS CORNERArticle by: Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker – Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community & Neighbourhood ServicesPh: 0409 986 121 Centre: 4721 8520Blog: http://handsheartsminds.wordpress.com

Have you, as a parent, decided that you need to look after

yourself a bit more this year?‘Looking after yourself’ is one of the fi ve keys to positive

parenting in the Triple P programme.You’ve got to live it to give it. What small thing can you do

today to take care of yourself? Every day, do one small thing that you enjoy and that satisfi es your hands, warms your heart, or feeds your mind. How we feel about ourselves aff ects how we parent.

Some parents have said to me that they only care about what happens for their kids and they no longer care about themselves. They have said “my life is over now, it’s all about the kids”. I urge all parents to take care of themselves, because that is all about the kids too. Your children have mirror neurons in their brains. Mirror neurons help us to detect emotion in other people.

If you think you can hide your sadness, depression, anger, annoyance, or frustration from your children, think again. Your children are like a radar for how you are feeling. Why? Because their emotional and physical safety depend on it. But not only that, if your child is picking up that you are sad or angry, they blame themselves. Deep down inside, they think they are the cause of your anger or upset, no matter how many times you tell them that they are not. And that’s not good for their emotional and mental health.

When I was teaching a social and emotional programme in a disadvantaged school, and I asked the students from preschool to Year 6 to name some emotions, they all said (even the littlies) “happy, sad, depressed, and angry”. They could only name those four emotions, because that’s all they heard their parent/carer saying and what they saw them feeling.

Diet and exercise are important to you too. Choose the salad sandwich over the chips. If you are not that keen on gyms or jogging, incidental exercise is good too, such as walking to school to pick up the children, or doing squats and stretches whilst hanging the washing on the line.

When do you take the time to focus on your adult relationships? Many parents tell me they feel isolated and judged in their role as parents. Who supports you whilst you have the important job of supporting your children? Where can you get support from caring and interested people?

If you are feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, or having persistent diffi culties in your relationships, seek professional help and counselling.

You owe it to yourself and your children to be as well as you can be (intellectually, physically, emotionally, and socially).

HEALTH MATTERSArticle by: Rhonda Rolfe - Harmonising HealthPh: 0430 047 421 E: [email protected]: www.harmonisinghealth.com.au

Stress – What is it?Stress typically describes a negative condition that can have

an impact on ones mental and physical well-being.According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention,

Stanford University Medical School and numerous health experts, the number one killer on the planet is STRESS! Up to 95% of all physical and nonphysical health problems have stress as their origin. Every time we have a health problem we should be asking, "What stress is causing this, and how can I eliminate it?"

Stress is known as the silent killer. It leads to a multitude of health problems including high blood pressure, depression, anxiety disorders, mental illness, heart attack and stroke, etc.So you don’t think you’re stressed?

Believe it or not, you can be suff ering from stress without realising it. In this fast paced world we all have learned to battle on regardless. We don’t feel stressed because how we feel has become “normal” to us, but it is far from healthy.What Are The Eff ects of Stress?

Stress can aff ect not only the physical body, but also the mind, emotions and behaviour. It can show up as headaches, aches and pains, fatigue, eczema, weakened immune system, asthma, bed wetting, stomach ulcers, forgetfulness, impaired judgement, nightmares, negativity, loss of interest, irritability, low self esteem, confl ict in relationships, loss of appetite, overeating – and the list goes on.Stress Knows No Age Barriers

Stress can and does aff ect people of all ages from babies through to the very elderly. If you, or someone you care for, are showing signs of stress, don’t wait until it’s too late.

A simple technique called Emotional Freedom Technique, or tapping therapy is gaining momentum world wide for its eff ectiveness in reducing stress levels.

Dear Editor,

I wonder about the value of “ Design Rules “ on

this lovely new suburb. Who monitors them ,who

takes the initiative to see they are enforced ?

Should one be ignored ,does this mean none are

enforceable ? Do we as a community value them ?

Do we all ignore the sprouting TV aerials that

are currently being erected ?

Regards,

Resident, Jordan Springs.

MONEY MATTER$With Alex McKenzie - Future Financial ServicesPh: 0414 330 651 E: info@futurefi nancialservices.com.au

What is the right investment for me?This is one of the most common questions I am asked as a fi nancial

planner, and like most things in life there is no simple answer!A number of factors determine the appropriate investment for an

individual, the time horizon of the investment, the requirements for the investment and the tolerance for risk of the investor.

The aims of fi nancial planning investment recommendations is to provide reasonably accurate outcomes and as such are more conservative in nature than other investments such as direct shares or a property development, which have the potential for very large returns in a short period - however may also lose money.

The foundation for conservative investment is diversifi cation. By investing in a number of diff erent assets, you are able to reduce the risk of the investment, the asset classes are cash, fi xed interest, property, Australian Shares and International shares. Each of those asset classes off er diff erent growth and income characteristics and have diff erent levels of risk. As a basic rule the greater the risk the greater the potential return.

Within each of those asset classes we also diversify, particularly within the more aggressive investments, such as shares and property, for example not only do we invest in a number of shares, we invest in diff erent types of shares, diff erent industry, life stages and alike.

The other investment fundamental is the use of risk profi les. Essentially the fi nancial planning industry has identifi ed a number of risk profi les ranging from defensive (conservative) to high growth (aggressive). These risk profi les each have a predetermined level of risk and volatility that is expected for each profi le. These profi les have an investment structure which is statistically modelled to provide the highest return within the expectations for the risk profi le.

Each individual client has a risk profi le assessed, the most important factor in determining how aggressive we are with an investment is the length of time, the basic premise is the longer the investment horizon, the more potential for growth assets. The theory being, statistically speaking, the longer the investment length the closer to long term averages the investment will achieve, and as more aggressive portfolios have a wider range of results, a longer time frame is required. Or more simply speaking, you have a longer time to recover from a bad year.

The length of time the money invested sets a maximum level of growth, however not all investors will be comfortable with the level of volatility throughout an investment despite the long investment horizon. A fi nancial planner will help determine an investor’s natural aversion to risk and adjust the risk profi le accordingly.

The fi nal piece in the puzzle is the requirements of the investment. If the investment is to achieve a specifi c goal, this may require the investment to be adjusted. Any investment that requires income from the investment (EG. Retirement income) will have to be invested to achieve this goal, a focus on income generating products will be necessary. It may be necessary to take more risk than the client would like if the client needs a higher return to achieve fi nancial goals. The reverse is also true; there may be no need to take investment risk if you will have suffi cient savings to achieve your goals with a lower level of volatility.

If you are interested in receiving advice in relation to developing an investment plan, especially in relation to superannuation (an often neglected area), please contact Future Financial Services for advice.

Muru Mittigar Receives GrantStuart Ayres MP, Member for Penrith, met with Mr Peter Chia,

General Manager of Muru Mittigar last month to announce their successful application for funding through the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership Program.

"I am pleased to announce that Muru Mittigar will receive a grant of $15,000 under the 2013 Community Building Partnership Program," said Stuart Ayres.

“Muru Mittigar does a fantastic job in off ering numerous activities for visitors to learn traditional Darug ways and participate in hands-on experiences at the Ngarra Aboriginal Knowledge Centre”.

The Ngarra Aboriginal Knowledge Centre off ers visitors the opportunity to learn and celebrate the rich and diverse culture of the Darug people. Ngarra will also provide temporary and permanent Aboriginal artefact exhibitions.

“The funds provided through the Community Building Partnership Program will help preserve and share Darug culture with the wider community,” said Muru Mittigar General Manager, Peter Chia.

“The project will provide employment for local Aboriginal people through the construction of a disability accessible guided culture and bush tucker walk at the Ngarra Aboriginal Knowledge Centre.” said Mr Chia.

Stuart Ayres said he was pleased NSW Premier Barry O’Farrell announced the roll out of over 1,315 community projects across NSW as a part of $90 million allocated to the program over four years.

"The Community Building Partnerships are a terrifi c program that provides the opportunity for local community groups such as youth, sporting, hobby groups and Council's to build, refurbish or maintain much needed infrastructure that will

benefi t the local community," said Stuart Ayres.“While we are delivering major infrastructure projects, we

understand the importance of local community infrastructure and potential benefi ts for local businesses.

“I look forward to seeing the benefi ts to our communities as projects are undertaken and put into use,” said Stuart Ayres.

New Veterinarian and 2 New Veterinary Nurses!!

We have continued to grow over the last 4 years since I bought Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and we have hired a third veterinarian and 2 new nurses. How exciting!

Theresa is our third veterinarian and she started here in November 2013.Theresa grew up locally with a well recognised appreciation for all animals. After beginning her animal studies with a degree and a masters in wildlife ecology from The University of Sydney, Theresa pursued her veterinary interests by moving to Perth and completing her veterinary degree at Murdoch University in 2012.

Theresa is enjoying settling back into her life on the east coast with her Doberman, Bella, and her well travelled cat, Pax (who made frequent journeys between Sydney and Perth!). She also enjoys keeping her horses, chooks and reptiles.

Sheridan is one of the new veterinary nurses. Sheridan completed certificate IV in veterinary nursing in 2009. Sheridan started her veterinary nursing career in 2007 at Pittwater on the Northern Beaches. She had a very enjoyable and fulfilling 6 years there before moving to the Hawkesbury and starting at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital. In her spare time she loves to get out camping, four wheel driving and abseiling.

Sheridan’s love for animals began at a very early age and since then she has had many birds (budgies, cockatiels, ring neck and eclectus parrot), mice and fish. Sheridan finds veterinary nursing to be a very rewarding career especially when giving advice to clients to help them provide better care for their pets.

Rachel is one of the new veterinary nurses. Rachel graduated as a Veterinary Nurse in December 2012 at Richmond TAFE and she hasn’t looked back since. She enjoys every aspect of being a Veterinary nurse, especially seeing our loved ones recover to their usual happy selves.

She has always loved animals and knew she wanted to work in a job that involved helping them. She enjoys spending time with friends and family when not working, and enjoys rock climbing. She has 2 beautiful much loved Labradors, 2 domestic cats & a ragdoll that get up to mischief together.

Santa Claus visited Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital during December 2013 to take photos with your pets.

From all of your donations for the Santa photos, we raised $1200 which was all donated to the Guide Dogs NSW!! We all love giggling and laughing to get your pets attention whilst on Santa’s knee for the photos. We had lots of fun and the Guide Dogs get a great donation. Thanks again for participating. Check out Bella, Pony and Callie for their Santa Photo
