Spring is here and I wonder if you like me have been to a wedding or two Theyrsquore great occasions not just for the bride and groom getting married but for family and friends as well

And as great as the day is itself this is just day one The starters gun launching them off the blocks A new family has been formed with all the possibilities that offers and challenges as well Thatrsquos why theyrsquore occasions steeped in joy and hope

But not everyone gets married not everyone stays married In our community there will always be people who are single widowed separated and divorced And in my experience the more profoundly something good in Godrsquos world affects us the more profoundly it affects us when it goes wrong or ends

So what makes a good marriage What fulfils the joy and hopes of the wedding day Commitment The promises of the wedding service Irsquom familiar with are not lsquoI do love this personrsquo but lsquoI will love this personrsquo Love isnrsquot first a feeling word ndash itrsquos an action word Jesus knew it He was a fan of marriage even though he was single In fact the Bible says He gave us marriage when He made the world as a living walk in illustration of His love for us He was so committed to us He acted to the point of laying down His life so we could have life

Marriages affect us all Not just our own marriage Theyrsquore a basic building block of our community So letrsquos serve one another to work out our commitment in marriage talking when we need to talk things through resolving things when we have differences forgiving when we each get things wrong (and my wife gets plenty of practice at that) Getting help from friends or relationship counsellors before difficulties become overwhelming And through it all may we also experience the joy of marriage

ldquoThe service off ered by Emu Plains simply has become a duplication of services provided at Penrith ldquoWe are a growing city and there has been a corresponding growth in demand for all of Councilrsquos services including library services The Council needs to use its fi nite resources where they are most needed

ldquoWe have consulted closely with the users of the Emu Plains branch to fi nd out if other services including the Penrith branch downloadable material and our home delivery service better meet their needs and the vast majority of users have said yesrdquo

Analysis of borrowings returns and library usage of Emu Plains residents showed

More than 90 per cent joined visit borrow and return at Penrith branch

Each loan at Emu Plains costs Council $2950 compared to $851 at Penrith

McHappy Dayreg is coming up fast and Ronald McDonald House Charitiesreg (RMHCreg) is calling on Emu and Leonay community groups to get behind the big day by forming a lsquoBucket Brigadersquo on Saturday 18th October to help raise more than $3 million for the charity

The event will take place at McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains and local groups including local businesses dance groups the fi re brigade and ambulance services are encouraged to get involved by volunteering their time to help collect donations in fundraising buckets at their local restaurant on the day

This yearrsquos fundraising target equates to over 23000 nightsrsquo accommodation in a Ronald McDonald House for families with seriously ill children Funds raised

on the day will go towards a range of RMHC programs including Ronald McDonald House Ronald McDonald Family Rooms the Ronald McDonald Learning Program and Ronald McDonald Family Retreats Program

ldquoOne in eight people either have been or know someone who has been aff ected by childhood illness so I am sure there are people in the local community who can relate to the heartache and stress of having a child with a serious illnessrdquo said Kerry Gordon licensee McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains

ldquoThe Bucket Brigades are a simple and easy way for people in the community to get involved and help families with seriously ill children We are very passionate about reaching our target of $3 million this yearrdquo

There are currently 14 Ronald McDonald Houses in Australia but sadly hundreds of families are turned away each month as there is a shortage of rooms to accommodate them all All funds raised on McHappy Day goes directly to RMHC and are used to help these Houses expand in order to help more families remain close during challenging times

A number of Australian celebrities will be doing their bit for McHappy Day to help raise awareness and funds across Australia Why not join them

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

Spring is here and I wonder if you like me have been to a wedding or two Theyrsquore great occasions not just for the bride and groom getting married but for family and friends as well

And as great as the day is itself this is just day one The starters gun launching them off the blocks A new family has been formed with all the possibilities that offers and challenges as well Thatrsquos why theyrsquore occasions steeped in joy and hope

But not everyone gets married not everyone stays married In our community there will always be people who are single widowed separated and divorced And in my experience the more profoundly something good in Godrsquos world affects us the more profoundly it affects us when it goes wrong or ends

So what makes a good marriage What fulfils the joy and hopes of the wedding day Commitment The promises of the wedding service Irsquom familiar with are not lsquoI do love this personrsquo but lsquoI will love this personrsquo Love isnrsquot first a feeling word ndash itrsquos an action word Jesus knew it He was a fan of marriage even though he was single In fact the Bible says He gave us marriage when He made the world as a living walk in illustration of His love for us He was so committed to us He acted to the point of laying down His life so we could have life

Marriages affect us all Not just our own marriage Theyrsquore a basic building block of our community So letrsquos serve one another to work out our commitment in marriage talking when we need to talk things through resolving things when we have differences forgiving when we each get things wrong (and my wife gets plenty of practice at that) Getting help from friends or relationship counsellors before difficulties become overwhelming And through it all may we also experience the joy of marriage

McHappy Dayreg is coming up fast and Ronald McDonald House Charitiesreg (RMHCreg) is calling on Emu and Leonay community groups to get behind the big day by forming a lsquoBucket Brigadersquo on Saturday 18th October to help raise more than $3 million for the charity

The event will take place at McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains and local groups including local businesses dance groups the fi re brigade and ambulance services are encouraged to get involved by volunteering their time to help collect donations in fundraising buckets at their local restaurant on the day

This yearrsquos fundraising target equates to over 23000 nightsrsquo accommodation in a Ronald McDonald House for families with seriously ill children Funds raised

on the day will go towards a range of RMHC programs including Ronald McDonald House Ronald McDonald Family Rooms the Ronald McDonald Learning Program and Ronald McDonald Family Retreats Program

ldquoOne in eight people either have been or know someone who has been aff ected by childhood illness so I am sure there are people in the local community who can relate to the heartache and stress of having a child with a serious illnessrdquo said Kerry Gordon licensee McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains

ldquoThe Bucket Brigades are a simple and easy way for people in the community to get involved and help families with seriously ill children We are very passionate about reaching our target of $3 million this yearrdquo

There are currently 14 Ronald McDonald Houses in Australia but sadly hundreds of families are turned away each month as there is a shortage of rooms to accommodate them all All funds raised on McHappy Day goes directly to RMHC and are used to help these Houses expand in order to help more families remain close during challenging times

A number of Australian celebrities will be doing their bit for McHappy Day to help raise awareness and funds across Australia Why not join them

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai joined the team in August 2014 where she was warmly welcomed by all

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

ldquoI feel very fortunate to be a part of the team here at Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalrdquoNew Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Lizzie

ldquoAfter a week of work experience I never thought only a year later would I be working here at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital but I wouldnrsquot work anywhere else Everyone here is always willing to help out and share their knowledge where ever possiblerdquo

Lizzie was promoted to Trainee Veterinary Nurse in September 2014New Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Jemma

Spring is here and I wonder if you like me have been to a wedding or two Theyrsquore great occasions not just for the bride and groom getting married but for family and friends as well

And as great as the day is itself this is just day one The starters gun launching them off the blocks A new family has been formed with all the possibilities that offers and challenges as well Thatrsquos why theyrsquore occasions steeped in joy and hope

But not everyone gets married not everyone stays married In our community there will always be people who are single widowed separated and divorced And in my experience the more profoundly something good in Godrsquos world affects us the more profoundly it affects us when it goes wrong or ends

So what makes a good marriage What fulfils the joy and hopes of the wedding day Commitment The promises of the wedding service Irsquom familiar with are not lsquoI do love this personrsquo but lsquoI will love this personrsquo Love isnrsquot first a feeling word ndash itrsquos an action word Jesus knew it He was a fan of marriage even though he was single In fact the Bible says He gave us marriage when He made the world as a living walk in illustration of His love for us He was so committed to us He acted to the point of laying down His life so we could have life

Marriages affect us all Not just our own marriage Theyrsquore a basic building block of our community So letrsquos serve one another to work out our commitment in marriage talking when we need to talk things through resolving things when we have differences forgiving when we each get things wrong (and my wife gets plenty of practice at that) Getting help from friends or relationship counsellors before difficulties become overwhelming And through it all may we also experience the joy of marriage

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

www1jamescomau

Spring is here and I wonder if you like me have been to a wedding or two Theyrsquore great occasions not just for the bride and groom getting married but for family and friends as well

And as great as the day is itself this is just day one The starters gun launching them off the blocks A new family has been formed with all the possibilities that offers and challenges as well Thatrsquos why theyrsquore occasions steeped in joy and hope

But not everyone gets married not everyone stays married In our community there will always be people who are single widowed separated and divorced And in my experience the more profoundly something good in Godrsquos world affects us the more profoundly it affects us when it goes wrong or ends

So what makes a good marriage What fulfils the joy and hopes of the wedding day Commitment The promises of the wedding service Irsquom familiar with are not lsquoI do love this personrsquo but lsquoI will love this personrsquo Love isnrsquot first a feeling word ndash itrsquos an action word Jesus knew it He was a fan of marriage even though he was single In fact the Bible says He gave us marriage when He made the world as a living walk in illustration of His love for us He was so committed to us He acted to the point of laying down His life so we could have life

Marriages affect us all Not just our own marriage Theyrsquore a basic building block of our community So letrsquos serve one another to work out our commitment in marriage talking when we need to talk things through resolving things when we have differences forgiving when we each get things wrong (and my wife gets plenty of practice at that) Getting help from friends or relationship counsellors before difficulties become overwhelming And through it all may we also experience the joy of marriage

Let me share with you a brief story of my mother who was diagnosed with aggressive life-threatening cancer over a year ago I have walked through this deep valley with my mother As a health-professional I was fearful too and felt ill-equipped to help her

I wanted to become more empowered to learn everything I could I went overseas to Japan to learn natural oncology support I found out about powerful super-nutrients and protocols that do not contra-indicate professional medical intervention

on the day will go towards a range of RMHC programs including Ronald McDonald House Ronald McDonald Family Rooms the Ronald McDonald Learning Program and Ronald McDonald Family Retreats Program

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

ldquoAbout 95 per cent of Emu Plains residents that use the Emu Plains library service borrow and return books at Penrithrdquo Councillor Fowler said

ldquoThe service off ered by Emu Plains simply has become a duplication of services provided at Penrith ldquoWe are a growing city and there has been a corresponding growth in demand for all of Councilrsquos services including library services The Council needs to use its fi nite resources where they are most needed

ldquoWe have consulted closely with the users of the Emu Plains branch to fi nd out if other services including the Penrith branch downloadable material and our home delivery service better meet their needs and the vast majority of users have said yesrdquo

Analysis of borrowings returns and library usage of Emu Plains residents showed

More than 90 per cent joined visit borrow and return at Penrith branch

Each loan at Emu Plains costs Council $2950 compared to $851 at Penrith

A survey of all the Emu Plains users who have borrowed at least 12 items in the past year showed

72 visit less than once a month 95 used other branches and would continue to use

them upon closure of Emu PlainsCouncil will ensure Emu Plains residents continue to have

alternative access to the Cityrsquos library services The collections and resources including staff will be distributed to other library branches to boost their collections and choice

Let me share with you a brief story of my mother who was diagnosed with aggressive life-threatening cancer over a year ago I have walked through this deep valley with my mother As a health-professional I was fearful too and felt ill-equipped to help her

I wanted to become more empowered to learn everything I could I went overseas to Japan to learn natural oncology support I found out about powerful super-nutrients and protocols that do not contra-indicate professional medical intervention

These nutrients are designed to support a person whilst having their conventional therapies They are evidence-based highly researched and used in over 40 countries overseas to bring quality of life and to improve the eff ectiveness of chemotherapeutics and cancer treatments

McHappy Dayreg is coming up fast and Ronald McDonald House Charitiesreg (RMHCreg) is calling on Emu and Leonay community groups to get behind the big day by forming a lsquoBucket Brigadersquo on Saturday 18th October to help raise more than $3 million for the charity

The event will take place at McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains and local groups including local businesses dance groups the fi re brigade and ambulance services are encouraged to get involved by volunteering their time to help collect donations in fundraising buckets at their local restaurant on the day

This yearrsquos fundraising target equates to over 23000 nightsrsquo accommodation in a Ronald McDonald House for families with seriously ill children Funds raised

on the day will go towards a range of RMHC programs including Ronald McDonald House Ronald McDonald Family Rooms the Ronald McDonald Learning Program and Ronald McDonald Family Retreats Program

ldquoOne in eight people either have been or know someone who has been aff ected by childhood illness so I am sure there are people in the local community who can relate to the heartache and stress of having a child with a serious illnessrdquo said Kerry Gordon licensee McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains

ldquoThe Bucket Brigades are a simple and easy way for people in the community to get involved and help families with seriously ill children We are very passionate about reaching our target of $3 million this yearrdquo

There are currently 14 Ronald McDonald Houses in Australia but sadly hundreds of families are turned away each month as there is a shortage of rooms to accommodate them all All funds raised on McHappy Day goes directly to RMHC and are used to help these Houses expand in order to help more families remain close during challenging times

A number of Australian celebrities will be doing their bit for McHappy Day to help raise awareness and funds across Australia Why not join them

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

PAWS A WHILEWith Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 377 Wentworth Rd Orchard Hills Ph 4736 2027

Growth of the Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalSince purchasing the Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 45 years

ago Camille and the team have worked steadily to grow the business Starting off with 1 veterinarian and 4 nurses Camille now employs 3 veterinarians (with a current advertisement for a 4th veterinarian) 6 fully qualifi ed veterinary nurses a Practice Manager 2 trainee veterinary nurses and a kennel hand Massive growth in 45 years from 5 staff to 13 staff One of the unexpected bonuses of owning a business was creating 8 new local jobs

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai joined the team in August 2014 where she was warmly welcomed by all

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

ldquoI feel very fortunate to be a part of the team here at Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalrdquoNew Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Lizzie

ldquoAfter a week of work experience I never thought only a year later would I be working here at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital but I wouldnrsquot work anywhere else Everyone here is always willing to help out and share their knowledge where ever possiblerdquo

Lizzie was promoted to Trainee Veterinary Nurse in September 2014New Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Jemma

As a lifelong animal lover Veterinary Nursing was an obvious career choice for Jemma who joined the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in September 2014 Having completed the Certifi cate II in Animal Studies in 2013 Jemma is currently completing her Certifi cate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Richmond TAFE

Growing up on acreage Jemma was surrounded by many dogs and horses and was involved in the local Pony Club Jemma continues to enjoy spending time with her 5 beautiful dogs along with horseriding cooking and spending time with family and friends

on the day will go towards a range of RMHC programs including Ronald McDonald House Ronald McDonald Family Rooms the Ronald McDonald Learning Program and Ronald McDonald Family Retreats Program

ldquoThe Bucket Brigades are a simple and easy way for people in the community to get involved and help families with seriously ill children We are very passionate about reaching our target of $3 million this yearrdquo

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

McHappy Dayreg is coming up fast and Ronald McDonald House Charitiesreg (RMHCreg) is calling on Emu and Leonay community groups to get behind the big day by forming a lsquoBucket Brigadersquo on Saturday 18th October to help raise more than $3 million for the charity

The event will take place at McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains and local groups including local businesses dance groups the fi re brigade and ambulance services are encouraged to get involved by volunteering their time to help collect donations in fundraising buckets at their local restaurant on the day

This yearrsquos fundraising target equates to over 23000 nightsrsquo accommodation in a Ronald McDonald House for families with seriously ill children Funds raised

on the day will go towards a range of RMHC programs including Ronald McDonald House Ronald McDonald Family Rooms the Ronald McDonald Learning Program and Ronald McDonald Family Retreats Program

ldquoOne in eight people either have been or know someone who has been aff ected by childhood illness so I am sure there are people in the local community who can relate to the heartache and stress of having a child with a serious illnessrdquo said Kerry Gordon licensee McDonaldrsquos Emu Plains

ldquoThe Bucket Brigades are a simple and easy way for people in the community to get involved and help families with seriously ill children We are very passionate about reaching our target of $3 million this yearrdquo

There are currently 14 Ronald McDonald Houses in Australia but sadly hundreds of families are turned away each month as there is a shortage of rooms to accommodate them all All funds raised on McHappy Day goes directly to RMHC and are used to help these Houses expand in order to help more families remain close during challenging times

A number of Australian celebrities will be doing their bit for McHappy Day to help raise awareness and funds across Australia Why not join them

To form a lsquoBucket Brigadersquo or get involved at your local McDonaldrsquos please contact the McHappy Day Project Offi ce on mchappydaypprcomau

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

Do you Have a Child who has Diffi culty Calming Him or

Herself

One of my boys would get very angry at times and needed some support to calm himself I was concerned that if he didnrsquot learn the skills to calm himself he would think that anger was an appropriate means of expressing himself I didnrsquot want him taking his anger into adolescence and beyond

The following strategies are from the Second Step programme which I have taught in primary school

In the programme children are told that they should do some deep breathing in situations where they fi nd they are having strong feelings such as being overexcited angry or upset

We tell kids that itrsquos ok to have strong feelings but doing the fi rst thing that comes into your head (like hitting or screaming at the other person) will not solve the problem

When we have strong feelings it can be hard to think about what to do Calming down helps us to think again Itrsquos easier to calm down if we try as soon as we start to have a strong feeling

You can use ways to calm down in the classroom at home and in the playground It also helps to get children to identify where they feel their anger (for example tummy head hands) Support the child to locate where he or she feels the feeling (anger sadness distress overexcited etc) in his or her body The answers I have heard from kids range from the feet (to run) the fi sts (to get ready to fi ght) the heart the tummy and the head

This one is for young children up to 6 years of agePut your hand on your tummy to check out how you are

feeling andl Say ldquocalm downrdquo to yourself using a slow voice

2 Take three deep belly breaths

3 Count to 4 slowly

Your tummy is right where your belly button is Putting your hand there helps you check in with how yoursquore feeling It also makes sure you do the right kind of breathing to help calm down The wrong way to do belly breathing is to puff up your chest tense your muscles take a noisy gasp of air and hold your breath The right way to do belly breathing is to take a breath that makes your tummy move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth It should be so quiet that you canrsquot hear it

Itrsquos a good technique for parents to use as well Many parents reported that their young children in the programme would coach them to do these things when they were showing signs of getting angry

Next month Irsquoll give you the techniques for children older than 6 years of age

Radio Kidz is Here

The very fi rst experience that kids have with the wonderful world of radio is based on whatever their parents listen to We all have childhood memories of Saturday afternoon football talk back radio cereals and golden oldies Today however kids are exposed to so much more including bad language off ensive songs and content too much advertising and talk

The Target Radio Network is about to change how kids interact with radio forever ForKidzcomau is here

From the Wiggles to Hi5 Play School to old fashion favourites like Bananas in Pyjamas and the best of Disney For Kidz Radio will play the music kids love Whatrsquos more itrsquos direct to you by way of the world wide web along with a smart phone and tablet app Which is ready to be downloaded through the app store or google play Making it available anywhere anytime and for parents giving you control of what your children listen to and when they tune in

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

Four Simple Steps To Staying Safer This Season Tips To Help Your Family Become Swim Season ReadyYYYYoooouuuurrrr FFFFaaaammmmiiiillllyyyyy BBBBeeeeccccoooommmmeeee SSSSwwwwiiiimmmm SSSSeeeeaaaassssoooonnnn RRRReeeeaaaaddddyyyyy

lsquoIs your family swim season ready rsquoIf the answer is less than lsquoyesrsquo the consequences could be dire ldquoAussies simply love the water Yet sadly accidental childhood drowning claims the greatest number of young lives than any other traumardquo said Keryn Daley from Dive In Swim Academy in Penrith

In 20122013 40 children between the ages of zero and 14 drowned in Australian waterways But not all accidents prove fatal one quarter of children admitted to hospital following a non-fatal drowning will be left with a brain injury resulting in lifelong disabilities

However industry experts Swim Australia - the leaders in learn-to-swim and water safety - insist drowning can potentially be prevented by actively applying four simple steps the EnergyAustralia SwimSAFER lsquoLayers of Protectionrsquo

ldquoApplied together each layer helps supports the other If one layer fails the remaining active layers will ultimately kick in potentially helping to save that childrsquos liferdquo said Swim Australia CEO Ross Gage

1 Be Aware Donrsquot let the kids out of your sight2 Be Secure Keep fences and gates locked up tight3 Be Confi dent Learn to Swim and how to get to safety4 Be Prepared Always have a plan in case of emergency

ldquoHelp prevent drowning any time any where any season by enrolling your kids in year round swimming lessons never let them out of your sight when in or around water and always practice the house rules lsquoI never go swimming without an adultrdquo concluded Ms Daley

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

bull Lapstone Public St Finbars Primary Our Lady of the Way Primary Kingswood Public Jamisontown Public Leonay Public Samuel Terry Public York Public Kingswood South Public Penrith Public Emu Heights Public Henry Fulton Public Emu Plains Public

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

HEALTH MATTERS

Hair Tissue Mineral AnalysisEver thought about having a Hair Tissue

Mineral Analysis done Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is a non-invasive health screening tool for measuring your bodyrsquos mineral status

The data can highlight potential health problems and help you to treat them through

a nutritional program designed to meet your individual needs A hair mineral analysis is a safe non-invasive pathology test

which can give you valuable health information often not revealed in a blood or urine test

It is an excellent way of identifying potential nutrient mineral defi ciencies and excesses as well as being an indicator of toxic mineral exposure Mineral imbalances can have several causes - improper eating habits stress medications pollution genetic and individual factors and even nutritional supplements Mineral imbalances can also be the underlying cause of many illnesses as can toxic metal exposure

They can cause arthritis elevated blood pressure foggy thinking behavioural problems hormonal imbalances skin problems and hair loss just to mention a few It is suitable for people of all ages and may just be the missing link you have been searching for When combined with a blood or urine test it can give a very comprehensive evaluation of your overall health Talk to your natural therapist at your next visit to determine whether a HTMA might be benefi cial for you

Crunch and Sip Program

Stuart Ayres MP Member for Penrith welcomes the news that primary school children throughout the Penrith Electorate are having fun learning about the importance of healthy eating and staying hydrated as part of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program

Stuart Ayres joined primary school children in Parliament to take part in a special demonstration of the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program which aims to build healthy eating habits into the daily routine of primary school students

Stuart Ayres said the program not only helped to boost the fruit vegetable and water intake of school students but also serves to improve concentration and classroom performance of those students taking part

ldquoThe lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program helps to promote the importance of healthy food options among primary school students with teachers reporting that it is a great practical way to incorporate this message into the school dayrdquo Stuart Ayres said

ldquoThere has been a signifi cant increase in the proportion of children 2-15 years who consumed the recommended daily vegetable intake from 130 in 2001 to 434 in 2012 But more needs to be done

ldquoResearch shows that teaching kids positive eating behaviours during childhood can set them up with healthy eating habits for life which leads to better health outcomes in the long runrdquo

The Healthy Children Initiative which includes Crunch amp Sip is a key initiative of the NSW Governmentrsquos Healthy Eating Active Living Strategy (2013-2018) which provides a comprehensive approach to reducing overweight and obesity in NSWrdquo

The lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program is currently part of the daily classroom routine in 1814 primary schools across NSW including schools from across the Penrith Electorate

bull Lapstone Public St Finbars Primary Our Lady of the Way Primary Kingswood Public Jamisontown Public Leonay Public Samuel Terry Public York Public Kingswood South Public Penrith Public Emu Heights Public Henry Fulton Public Emu Plains Public

ldquoItrsquos great to see so many local schools getting on board with the lsquoCrunchampSiprsquo program and providing young kids with a practical way to learn about the importance of eating healthy food and drinking plenty of waterrdquo Stuart Ayres said

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

ldquoI feel very fortunate to be a part of the team here at Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalrdquoNew Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Lizzie

ldquoAfter a week of work experience I never thought only a year later would I be working here at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital but I wouldnrsquot work anywhere else Everyone here is always willing to help out and share their knowledge where ever possiblerdquo

Lizzie was promoted to Trainee Veterinary Nurse in September 2014New Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Jemma

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

PAWS A WHILEWith Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 377 Wentworth Rd Orchard Hills Ph 4736 2027

Growth of the Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalSince purchasing the Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 45 years

ago Camille and the team have worked steadily to grow the business Starting off with 1 veterinarian and 4 nurses Camille now employs 3 veterinarians (with a current advertisement for a 4th veterinarian) 6 fully qualifi ed veterinary nurses a Practice Manager 2 trainee veterinary nurses and a kennel hand Massive growth in 45 years from 5 staff to 13 staff One of the unexpected bonuses of owning a business was creating 8 new local jobs

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai joined the team in August 2014 where she was warmly welcomed by all

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

ldquoI feel very fortunate to be a part of the team here at Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalrdquoNew Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Lizzie

Lizzie completed work experience at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in June 2012 Lizzie then joined our team as a Kennel Hand

in June 2013 Lizzie is in the process of completing her Certifi cate II in Animal Science at TAFE as well as her Higher School Certifi cate She enjoys everything about being a Kennel Hand learning lots and getting a head start on some nurse duties as she wishes to go on to study Veterinary Nursing at TAFE Lizzie has had many animals during her life time at the moment she has two cats (Moo Cow and Missy) and a Labrador cross (Sonny)

ldquoAfter a week of work experience I never thought only a year later would I be working here at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital but I wouldnrsquot work anywhere else Everyone here is always willing to help out and share their knowledge where ever possiblerdquo

Lizzie was promoted to Trainee Veterinary Nurse in September 2014New Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Jemma

As a lifelong animal lover Veterinary Nursing was an obvious career choice for Jemma who joined the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in September 2014 Having completed the Certifi cate II in Animal Studies in 2013 Jemma is currently completing her Certifi cate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Richmond TAFE

Growing up on acreage Jemma was surrounded by many dogs and horses and was involved in the local Pony Club Jemma continues to enjoy spending time with her 5 beautiful dogs along with horseriding cooking and spending time with family and friends

Jemma is grateful for the opportunity to work with the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and looks forward to increasing her skills in all areas of veterinary nursing

MONEY MATTERS

As of January 1st 2015 the way allocated pensions (also known as account based pensions) are treated by Centrelink is set to change and unfortunately not favourably for pensioners

Currently money invested in an allocated pension is treated concessionally In simple terms the funds invested at the beginning of the investment are divided by the clients life expectancy this amount known as the deductible amount is not counted to the income test So if a 65 yo male invested $200000 into an allocated pension his life expectancy would be 1854 and his deductible amount would be $10787

In this scenario the fi rst $10787 of income drawn from the allocated pension is not counted for Centrelink income test purposes ie If $15000 is drawn from the allocated pension only $4213 is considered income by Centrelink

As of January 1st 2015 funds invested in accounts based pension will be treated like all other investment assets and will be subject to Deeming rates Currently investment assets are deemed at 2 for the fi rst $46600 and 35 for any additional investment assets In the above example the assessable income for Centrelink would be $6301

The current deeming rates are at a historical low and in the past have been considerably higher if deeming rates increase which is likely the new treatment will further disadvantage most pensioners

Those with higher balances are the most disadvantaged especially if they are drawing minimal pensions but all people

who are hoping to receive Centrelink pensions should review their retirement plan

There are grandfathering provisions that see all allocated pensions commenced before the end of this calendar year treated under the current more favourable income test therefore it is advisable for anyone looking to retire in the near future to seek advice in relation to allocated pensions as soon as possible

Please contact Future Financial Services if you have any queries in relation to the new legislation or any other fi nancial planning matter

PAWS A WHILEWith Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 377 Wentworth Rd Orchard Hills Ph 4736 2027

Growth of the Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalSince purchasing the Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 45 years

ago Camille and the team have worked steadily to grow the business Starting off with 1 veterinarian and 4 nurses Camille now employs 3 veterinarians (with a current advertisement for a 4th veterinarian) 6 fully qualifi ed veterinary nurses a Practice Manager 2 trainee veterinary nurses and a kennel hand Massive growth in 45 years from 5 staff to 13 staff One of the unexpected bonuses of owning a business was creating 8 new local jobs

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai joined the team in August 2014 where she was warmly welcomed by all

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

ldquoI feel very fortunate to be a part of the team here at Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalrdquoNew Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Lizzie

Lizzie completed work experience at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in June 2012 Lizzie then joined our team as a Kennel Hand

in June 2013 Lizzie is in the process of completing her Certifi cate II in Animal Science at TAFE as well as her Higher School Certifi cate She enjoys everything about being a Kennel Hand learning lots and getting a head start on some nurse duties as she wishes to go on to study Veterinary Nursing at TAFE Lizzie has had many animals during her life time at the moment she has two cats (Moo Cow and Missy) and a Labrador cross (Sonny)

ldquoAfter a week of work experience I never thought only a year later would I be working here at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital but I wouldnrsquot work anywhere else Everyone here is always willing to help out and share their knowledge where ever possiblerdquo

Lizzie was promoted to Trainee Veterinary Nurse in September 2014New Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Jemma

As a lifelong animal lover Veterinary Nursing was an obvious career choice for Jemma who joined the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in September 2014 Having completed the Certifi cate II in Animal Studies in 2013 Jemma is currently completing her Certifi cate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Richmond TAFE

Growing up on acreage Jemma was surrounded by many dogs and horses and was involved in the local Pony Club Jemma continues to enjoy spending time with her 5 beautiful dogs along with horseriding cooking and spending time with family and friends

PAWS A WHILEWith Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 377 Wentworth Rd Orchard Hills Ph 4736 2027

Growth of the Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalSince purchasing the Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital 45 years

ago Camille and the team have worked steadily to grow the business Starting off with 1 veterinarian and 4 nurses Camille now employs 3 veterinarians (with a current advertisement for a 4th veterinarian) 6 fully qualifi ed veterinary nurses a Practice Manager 2 trainee veterinary nurses and a kennel hand Massive growth in 45 years from 5 staff to 13 staff One of the unexpected bonuses of owning a business was creating 8 new local jobs

Each new team member provides a new skill set and knowledge base which we use to provide better care for your petsNew Practice Manager ndash Renai

Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years After managing a local business for 12 years Renai was delighted to combine her three greatest passions together managing a business customer service and her love for animals

Renai joined the team in August 2014 where she was warmly welcomed by all

Renai has 3 furbabies including Tasha (Labrador x Staff y) Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador) Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children

Renai enjoys nothing more than spending time with her family cooking renovating and roadtrips

ldquoI feel very fortunate to be a part of the team here at Orchard Hills Veterinary HospitalrdquoNew Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Lizzie

Lizzie completed work experience at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in June 2012 Lizzie then joined our team as a Kennel Hand

in June 2013 Lizzie is in the process of completing her Certifi cate II in Animal Science at TAFE as well as her Higher School Certifi cate She enjoys everything about being a Kennel Hand learning lots and getting a head start on some nurse duties as she wishes to go on to study Veterinary Nursing at TAFE Lizzie has had many animals during her life time at the moment she has two cats (Moo Cow and Missy) and a Labrador cross (Sonny)

ldquoAfter a week of work experience I never thought only a year later would I be working here at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital but I wouldnrsquot work anywhere else Everyone here is always willing to help out and share their knowledge where ever possiblerdquo

Lizzie was promoted to Trainee Veterinary Nurse in September 2014New Trainee Veterinary Nurse ndash Jemma

As a lifelong animal lover Veterinary Nursing was an obvious career choice for Jemma who joined the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in September 2014 Having completed the Certifi cate II in Animal Studies in 2013 Jemma is currently completing her Certifi cate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Richmond TAFE

Growing up on acreage Jemma was surrounded by many dogs and horses and was involved in the local Pony Club Jemma continues to enjoy spending time with her 5 beautiful dogs along with horseriding cooking and spending time with family and friends

Jemma is grateful for the opportunity to work with the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and looks forward to increasing her skills in all areas of veterinary nursing
