Easter arrived early in Jordan Springs on April 6, when the Mad Hatter’s Easter Tea Party took place at the Jordan Springs Town Centre. Children and adults alike were bubbling with excitement (and possibly the after-eff ects of too much sugar).

The Easter festivities kicked off at 11am, with loads of fun and entertainment for the whole family. The Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts and, of course, the Easter Bunny, dropped by to see everyone.

The kids were supplied a passport that was stamped once they participated in the trail hunt. There was Easter hat making, biscuit decorating and colouring in for all the crafty kids. Face painting, airbrush tattoos, an animal farm, putt putt golf, giant chess, snakes and ladders, showbags and the Hot Potato Band all kept the kids extremely busy.

For the adults, there were free massages, market stalls, tea/coff ee and a BBQ fundraiser on hand. A special thank you must go to Lend Lease for coordinating such a fantastic event.

Shrills of excitement were heard as the Easter Bunny arrived, providing kids (of all ages) with much delight. A great afternoon was had by all the families that came and they all look forward to the Mad Hatter and his friends returning again.

I am almost writing this in disbelief that we have already arrived at April, with Easter only a few weeks away! We’re on the cusp of school holidays and another term has passed. Before long, it will be Mother’s Day and not to wish the year away, but winter is creeping across the hill as we speak.

This month’s edition has some wonderful highlights such as our cover story about the recent Easter event held at Jordan Springs Town Centre. The centre was bubbling with excitement (and eggs) while children enjoyed special time with the Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts and the Easter Bunny. What a great day!

You won’t need to look too far, before you fi nd our delightful Easter treats in ‘What’s Cooking’ on page 11, and our newest regular article from the Principal of Henry Fulton Public School, Glen Fairclough on page 10.

This edition is fi lled with an abundance of local news and highlights, of what is and what has been happening in and around your community.

We have lots of regular articles to read and loads of activities listed on our Community Calendar, found on page 16.

Enjoy your month, and your community news! Remember, be there for others, but never leave yourself behind.

Your Local Bushcare Group Needs You!Join Bushcare and join others who care. Would you like to meet

more people in your neighbourhood? Would you like to have fun, while helping to protect your local environment?

Penrith City Council is establishing a new Bushcare group in Cranebrook. The eight other Bushcare groups in Penrith City are also looking for new members.

Mayor of Penrith Ross Fowler OAM said “Bushcare was a great way to meet people, while helping to care for your local environment.“ Bushcare is open to all ages and you don’t need any experience,” Cr Fowler said. “You just need to volunteer a few hours of your time each month.”

The new Cranebrook Community Bushcare group will help care for Cumberland Plain Woodland bushland – which is critically endangered vegetation under both State and Federal Threatened Species Legislation.

“Penrith contains approximately 17% of the remaining Cumberland Plain Woodland in Sydney, making it very important that we do what we can to protect and restore these bushland areas,” Cr Fowler said.

The other local Bushcare groups are located throughout the Penrith City region. “Volunteering to help care for local bushland provides an opportunity for the whole family to work together, or an opportunity to meet your neighbours and people who share your interests,” Cr Fowler said.

“You can also build a sense of ownership and achievement as you see the diff erence you’ve made to a particular site.” Bushcare volunteers primarily help care for sites by removing weeds and planting native plants.

For more information on Bushcare, contact Penrith City Council’s Bushland Management Offi cer on 4732 8088 or email [email protected]. You can also register your interest at: http://www.penrithcity.nsw.gov.au/Our-Community/Get-Involved/Register-Your-Interest-in-Volunteering/


What makes a GOOD day?What would it take for you to call a day

GOOD? If I designed a good day for me I’d start with bacon and eggs for breakfast, followed by a game of golf with mates and fi nish it off with a BBQ around the pool joined by family and friends.

What does your GOOD day look like? This month we all get a day off for a Friday called

GOOD. Everyone calls it GOOD Friday. But why call it good? Anytime we get a four day weekend - that has to be good! But that is not where Good Friday comes from. The key event of the fi rst Good Friday was a death. I doubt that was on anyone’s ‘good’ day list.

The death was not just a quiet passing. The death was the carrying out of a death penalty. Oddly, the victim had been found innocent by the highest court in the land, yet due to overwhelming public pressure the judge sentenced him to death. And the day is labelled GOOD. It is an odd description. There must be more to it ... and there is.

This death was about FORGIVENESS. Real forgiveness from God for all people. It is a GOOD day because this death, the death of Jesus Christ, was to off er forgiveness to all people for rejecting God as the most important one in their lives. We call it GOOD Friday for this death brings the promise of eternal paradise. Join us this Good Friday at 9:30am to fi nd out more.

Local clothing fashion label TopChick is riding a wave of success thanks to their ‘sassy designs for plus size chicks’. Owner Vickie Robinson is honest when it comes to her inspiration for the business, “I am fat but I still like to wear nice clothing. I like clothing that fi ts my curves but it’s really hard to fi nd. I wanted clothes that I don’t see on everyone. I decided to do something about it”. With a clothing range from sizes 18-26 and soon to start at size 16, TopChick currently have three ranges; Party Chick, Corporate Chick and Casual Chick.

TopChick’s exciting range of clothing begins with a fantastic design team. The design team is made up of ladies with varying skills who use the business as a learning platform with a senior all-rounder bringing it all together. “I come up with the concepts and they create miracles!” said Vickie. Vickie particularly loves that ‘WOW’ moment when people put on the clothing, “Many ladies tell me they don’t wear dresses and then they put one on and you see the transformation. I love helping women feel confi dent about themselves”.

TopChick are just about to release their Autumn line. This season it’s all about zippers, colour and tights with a diff erence. To view and purchase TopChicks amazing plus size range of clothing, visit their website www.topchick.com.au. TopChick – representing a way of life, not a size.

Jobs Boost for PenrithNSW Minister Assisting the Premier on Western Sydney

and Member for Penrith Stuart Ayres has welcomed plans to relocate and consolidate more than 3,000 public servants to new offi ces in Western Sydney.

“This is a move that will boost Penrith economy and support local jobs as part of the NSW Government’s ‘decade of decentralisation’ policy,” Mr Ayres said.

“This about a fair go for the people of Penrith and this decision will provide a signifi cant economic boost. It’s a clear demonstration of the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government’s commitment to Western Sydney.

“Starting next year, more than 3,000 public servants will be relocated and consolidated to new offi ces here in Penrith, as well as in Liverpool and Parramatta,” he said.

NSW Sport and Recreation will move from Sydney Olympic Park to Penrith.

“In the coming weeks, the NSW Government will seek expressions of interest for 5,000 square metres of commercial space here in Penrith, which equates to between fi ve and 10 stories of additional offi ce space,” Mr Ayres said.

“The move will create a huge amount of activity in the area - stimulating development, supporting local businesses and creating jobs during construction of the new offi ces.

“Decentralisation makes economic sense. It has the added benefi t of ensuring public servants are based in the communities they serve helping to improve the delivery of services.

“The relocation will also provide more opportunities for Penrith residents who want to work closer to where they live, and will help reduce congestion in the Sydney CBD,” Mr Ayres said.

The NSW Government will not own the new offi ce accommodation, but will instead become an anchor tenant for new investment in the region.

“This decentralisation strategy adds to the huge infrastructure projects we are delivering for Western Sydney including WestConnex, the North West and South West Rail Links, as well delivering more nurses, teachers and police,” Mr Ayres concluded.

Nepean Valley RSL Day ClubLast month, the Nepean Valley RSL Day Club was offi cially

opened with a celebratory lunch and cake cutting, held at the Salvation Army Hall, Glenmore Park.

This special occasion was attended by numerous offi cials and dignitaries including, Jennifer Collins, Deputy Commissioner, Department of Veterans’ Aff airs; Tom Barnsley – RSL State Coordinator of Day Clubs; Cllr Tricia Hitchen representing Stuart Ayres, State Member for Penrith; Rick Cortese representing Tanya Davies, State Member for Mulgoa; Cllr Ross Fowler, Mayor of Penrith who was also representing Fiona Scott, Federal Member for Lindsay; along with all the Nepean Valley Day Club members and volunteers.

16 committed volunteers regularly attend to make certain that each Wednesday runs smoothly for the Day Club members. Strong support through sponsorship is provided by the City of Penrith RSL Sub-Branch and practical support by the Salvation Army, Bakers Delight at Glenmore Park & Guardian Funerals, Minchinbury.

Day Clubs are a weekly social program for older people from both the ex-service and wider community. Day Clubs off er social support and friendship to older people who are still living in the community but who are unable to attend more active programs.

Many Day Club members believe they are healthier, happier and more active due to their involvement in their Club. Day Clubs are entirely run by volunteers with the support of the Australian Government Department of Veterans’ Aff airs (DVA), NSW Offi ce and the Returned and Services League of Australia (RSL) (NSW Branch). Day Clubs provide a unique opportunity for volunteers to become involved in rewarding work and make a real diff erence in their local community.

The life, work, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ: is it possible to argue that it is relevant for today? The answer in itself defies demonstration as it is answered in faith based on reason and an understanding of history. The choice, does it not, comes down to a decision based on the ‘yes or no’ to

the Christian challenge of its relevancy.Passion Week and Good Friday sets out the challenge: why did

Jesus, who is called the Christ [one appointed] offer his life?. It is interesting that in the lead up to his trial and death he did not confront his followers but asked them to share a meal with him. That meal became a constant in Christian worship following his resurrection. The meal recalls his words ‘the blood of the Covenant that is shed for many’. This is an ancient sacrificial concept that is somewhat foreign to our day and generation, but when reason is applied to attempt understanding the first surprise is that the greater our efforts to understand the greater the silence of Jesus.

This silence comes about as the challenge is to look at ourselves, our society and the world at large. In doing so much of our reality is the awesome dominance of selfishness both at the individual and community level. People are happy to follow a life that takes rather than gives. This becomes evident in a lot of religious practice: ‘God will give and make me happy’.

However the meal that Jesus invites us to share is the reverse: I will lose my life but in doing so will gain life: even death will not separate us from that life. As always the moment is part of the eternal. Today the meal is the essential core of the Faith as the meal [Holy Communion] in sharing the bread and wine, is the outward visible sign of the actual sharing of Jesus’ death and resurrection. Our Christian discipline is enhanced not only as individuals but also in the community with that mystic but beautiful affirmation: we are the Body of Christ and His Spirit is with us.

So faith gives the affirmation that his life, death and resurrection is relevant for us and in that we accept the challenge and discipline our lives by walking with a clear consciousness and in honesty. Thus the work that Jesus began is continued.

All the best, Rev John Hebblewhite

Easter Fun FactsThe word Easter dates back to early England; it is thought to relate to the Pagan goddess of spring and fertility Ēostre (also called Ostara)

The tradition of the Easter Bunny originated in Germany. In Australia we also have the Easter Bilby.

Exchanging painted eggs started in ancient civilizations with people such as the Egyptians and Persians. The would exchange eggs as a symbol of fertility and new life.

When most people eat chocolate Easter bunnies they eat the ears first.

From the Principal’s DeskLlandilo Public School Principal: Bruno Zuliani

Dear Parents, Caregivers and Friends of Llandilo Public School,

At the time of writing, Term 1 is almost at a close and students and their families are looking forward to the Easter break.

Our school is currently in the process of revamping our Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) program which is essentially a framework for enhancing academic and social outcomes for our girls and boys. Our PBL values are consistent with living peacefully in a democratic and multicultural society. They are Respect, Responsibility and Personal Best.

Last week we had some very special visitors to our school from Japan. Takaaki and Keiko Orimoto and their son Ryosuke who live in Yokohama-Shi, Kanagawa spent some time with one of our Kindergarten classes. The family were staying with the Medak family who have two children enrolled at our school. Ryosuke proudly wore his “adopted” school uniform and enjoyed the linguistic and cultural experience of visiting an Aussie school. The family are welcome back to Llandilo anytime!

As part of our Health and Development Program a very tall and very friendly giraff e by the name of Healthy Harold came by to inspire students to live healthy lifestyles. Lessons were thoroughly enjoyed by our participating students.

On behalf of our entire school community I wish all local residents a safe and enjoyable Autumn vacation and I look forward to keeping you informed of the wonderful work students and staff engage in, at your local Public School.My Kindest Regards, Bruno Zuliani (Principal)

Connection RitualsIf your child is having trouble separating

from you into childcare or school, or even to family and friends, sometimes it helps to have a ‘connection ritual’.

My youngest boy taught me the importance of this.

People say that we don’t get an instruction manual when we have our kids. But we actually do. It’s the child himself.

Our child tells us what she needs, through her behaviour. When children feel safe within the relationship with you, they will tell you what they need. We just have to listen.

My boy developed a ritual at drop-off time and bedtime where he would ask me to blow him a kiss, and he would catch it and put it in his pocket ‘for later’ and then he would pat his pocket. And I had to catch his kiss and put it in my pocket. He was then happy to separate.

Thus, a connection ritual is something that communicates your love, care, and attention to your child. It is similar to a ‘comfort item’ but there is no tangible object, just a memory.

I am a strong advocate for comfort items like a teddy or a blanket. In the life of a young child, they are a substitute for the primary caregiver. A comfort item provides comfort to the young child during a time when he is starting to realise that he is a separate person to his primary caregiver but the separation causes him anxiety (Dr Donald Winnicott). The comfort item is a reminder of the carer’s love.

As children grow older, and it’s not so cool to carry your teddy into school with you, a connection ritual can take the place of a comfort item.

A connection ritual can be anything that reminds your child of the bond between you. It can be a word, or a song, but it has to be the same thing each time. One of the coolest connection rituals I’ve seen is a family handshake. You know those funny handshakes that you see on American TV shows. The ones where they shake, then do a thumbs up and a slide, and bump their fi sts together, and wiggle their fi ngers, and do an explosion gesture, and all of that?

The connection ritual would be done as the fi nal thing when you drop the children off at preschool or school, with a “see ya at the end of school” before you separate.

In the USA, connection rituals are standard practice in some schools. The teacher looks the child in the eyes, smiles warmly, shakes the hand of each child as he or she enters the classroom and says “good morning (name of the child)”. Sometimes this job is given to a child who is called ‘the greeter’ and it is just like any other job in the classroom which is rotated amongst the children, just like ‘line leader’.

What do you think? Is this something you already do? Do you have some ideas for connection rituals? One of the teachers in the school I work in told me about a book called “The Kissing Hand” by Audrey Penn – you can fi nd it on YouTube.

Basically, for the parents the connection ritual is something that creates connection, communicates care, nurture, and attention, and fi lls the child’s emotional cup before the separation. For teachers, it’s a ritual that communicates to the child that he or she is welcome at school.

AnxietyDo you suff er from anxiety? Do you ever feel resistance to

doing something? Do you not do things because it would mean stepping out of your comfort zone? Do you avoid doing things because you might look silly to others, you feel inferior, you will make a fool of yourself, you are not good enough, you don’t have the right clothes, you are too fat, you are too skinny, you are not smart enough? Do you come up with other excuses why you can’t participate in activities etc. If you answered “Yes” to any of these, you are experiencing anxiety.

Anxiety is an unpleasant state of inner turmoil. There are several types of anxiety which people can experience, the most common ones being Social Anxiety, OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), Specifi c Phobias, GAD (Generalised Anxiety Disorder) & Panic Disorder. For some people, anxiety is part of their daily life eg GAD & OCD, whilst for others there are specifi c triggers eg fl ying, public speaking etc.

Anxiety doesn’t have to be severe to prevent you living the life you desire. Even mild anxiety can be a roadblock to success in both your personal and working life. Anxiety can make the diff erence between passing or failing an exam or being successful or unsuccessful in an interview. Anxiety can control your life, or you can learn how to control it.

What would your life be like if anxiety wasn’t a part of it?

Using Gearing to Create Wealth

After a period of conservative investment based around term deposits and cash based investments, confi dence is returning and investor’s mindsets are starting to switch to more aggressive asset classes and more

aggressive strategies. One of these strategies is gearing.Gearing is essentially borrowing to invest. This enhances

exposure to the investment and magnifi es both gains and losses. The most common gearing strategy is through an investment property, but it is also possible to gear into the share markets with products such as margin loans and other geared products.

Gearing presents the opportunity to accelerate the wealth creation process, but as an aggressive strategy it also carries a high level of risk. To be eff ective, it is necessary to invest into growth assets, usually property or shares. These assets have the highest average returns, but also on average carry the highest level of volatility. Borrowing to increase exposure to these assets presents the opportunities to have profi ts greatly enhanced, but volatility is also enhanced. It is necessary to have an extremely long investment horizon and investors need a high tolerance to risk. It is even more important than normal not to be forced to sell at the bottom of the market.

Furthermore, it is necessary to have surplus income to meet ongoing borrowing costs. This income needs to be secure; ensuring the commitment to the geared investment can be maintained long term.

All borrowing costs are tax deductible. The nature of growth assets see that the bulk of return in capital gain and usually the assets are maintained for more than 12 months. This means that usually gearing is a tax eff ective wealth creation strategy.

This example demonstrates the power of gearing, illustrating that by borrowing funds and increasing exposure to an investment dramatically increases the return on investment.

Geared strategies are aggressive strategies and often fast track the wealth creation process. However, they carry increased risk compared to most other strategies and are not suitable for all investors.

If anyone is interested in fi nding out more about investment strategies contact Future Financial Services on 47276588 or visit our website www.futurefi nancialservices.com.au.

KEEPING FIT WITH Rj Strong Mind, Strong Body!

Have you ever wondered what makes someone good at what they do? Whether it be in health and fi tness or life in general, what makes it easy for some people to accomplish their goals, and harder for others?

The simple answer is, to be successful at anything, your mind needs to be just as strong, if not stronger than your body. Just like lifting weights will strengthen your muscles, mental strength can be developed by adopting a few of the following principles;

• Welcoming positive change and being fl exible. • Living for the present and planning for the future.• Accepting responsibility for your behaviour and

using failure as an opportunity to grow and improve. • Appreciating and celebrating other people’s

successes. Instead of feeling jealous of other people’s achievements, recognise their hard work, and be willing to work hard for your own chance at success.

Happy Training!Rj Tierney (owner) Pure Fitness Penrith Ph: 4732 2884rj@purefi tness.net.au www.purefi tness.net.au

Chocolate Dangers at Easter Time

We all know Easter is a fun time spent with family and chocolate...lots and lots of delicious chocolate! Easter is a great time for the human members of the family, but the infamous Easter egg hunt can end in tragedy for our four legged friends. Chocolate contains theobromine and caff eine, which

when ingested by a dog or cat, causes vomiting, diarrhoea, hyperactivity, increased heart rate, restlessness, muscle twitching, increased urination, excessive panting and if left untreated can be rapidly fatal.

If your dog does accidentally eat some chocolate it is vitally important that they are seen within 30 minutes to an hour by your local veterinarian. The veterinarian will give an injection to make your pet vomit, which removes most of the toxins from the body. Sometimes, your pet will be hospitalised, where intravenous fl uids may be used, an enema or stomach pump may be required, and we may also need to use muscles relaxants and activated charcoal.

There are a few simple precautions you can take to ensure that your pet has a safe Easter:

• Hide your Easter eggs in areas which cannot be accessed by your pet.

• Ensure small children do not give your pet any chocolate.• Ensure all chocolate is kept out of reach from your pets.

Dogs have a good sense of smell and will fi nd chocolate in kid’s schoolbags!

• Distract your pet with their favourite treats while chocolate is around.

Colouring in CompetitionIn the spirit of Easter what better way to brighten up the

veterinary hospital, than to host a colouring in competition. All entries will be displayed on the walls of the veterinary hospital.

You can download the entry form from our website www.orchardhillsvet.com.au, Facebook page or pop into the veterinary hospital and pick up a copy.

Post your entries to Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital, 377 Wentworth Road, Orchard Hills, NSW 2748, or drop them in at the veterinary hospital.

All entries must be received by 7pm on Monday 28th April 2014. Please ensure your full contact details (name, address, phone number, email) are on the back of the entry form or envelope. Winners will be drawn and notifi ed at 10am on Tuesday 29th April 2014.

Download a First Aid App for FREEEmergencies can occur at any time. This app has been

professionally written and edited by Australian veterinarians. It includes over 130 helpful fi rst-aid articles that are all relevant for Australian pets. This is app is valuable as an educational tool for all pet owners, however in the event of an emergency it is always recommended to contact your veterinarian. The First Aid App can be downloaded FOR FREE from the Apple Application Store (iPhone) or from Google Play (Android). Check out our website for more information. www.orchardhillsvet.com.au or join us on Facebook.

We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital, and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team.
