Can you believe we are almost half way through the year I know its clicheacute but where did the time go

As the year races by we find ourselves in Term 2 of school Easter has been and gone with Mothers Day just around the corner In the blink of an eye it will be the end of financial year and well be donning our winter woollies

This month we have some amazing stories of new beginnings like little Liams story on page 3 stories about the end of an era like that of Emu Heights Theatre Company on page 5 and stories about a time to reflect with Lewers latest exhibition on page 9

With Mothers Day falling on the second Sunday in May Narelle writes an insightful and very thought-provoking article about positive relationships on page 6 Well worth a read

Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are often the same

The Right Person For The JobDo you know someone you can rely upon Irsquove got a friend

who is a builder When I want something built I always go to him I know hersquoll do it well and that Irsquoll be happy with the result

Therersquos another thing too it doesnrsquot matter that I donrsquot know the first thing about building the quality of his work doesnrsquot depend on me

When it comes to us and God Jesus teaches a similar thing If you want to know God and His forgiveness over your life it doesnrsquot matter how much faith yoursquove got What matters is where you place it Jesus said that if we place our faith somewhere other than in Him and what Hersquos done itrsquoll be a mistake And perhaps the greatest danger we all face is to think that we can earn Godrsquos forgiveness But if instead we rely on Him for life and for forgiveness it doesnrsquot matter that wersquove got nothing to contribute to it what matters is His ability to get the job done

Thatrsquos a happy relief If you need a builder find one you can trust if you need a saviour do the same We donrsquot all need a builder but the Bible says we all need forgiveness If you want to check out whether Jesus matches up to his claims why not read Mark or Lukersquos gospel in a copy of the Bible If you havenrsquot got one get in contact and wersquoll give you one

Vicarys Winery Craft Market RelocatesThe founding stall holders have been at Vicarys Winery

Craft Markets for many years Due to the development of the Badgerys Creek Airport the markets there have now closed and relocated to Emu Plains (most of the stall holders are long standing locals to the area so it only made sense to choose Emu Plains)

Now called Emu Markets they will be located INSIDE the school hall at the Nepean Creative amp Performing Arts High School although there will also be some stalls on the grounds surrounding the hall

The Market is predominantly made up of stall holders that sell products that are generally not available in shops with special emphasis on goods amp crafts that have been made locally

The Vicarys Winery Craft Markets are held every second Sunday of the month Hope to see you there

Final Curtain Call For Emu Heights Theatre Company After four years and seven productions Emu Heights Theatre Company bid one last

farewell with their final production of lsquoThe Shoe-Horn Sonatarsquo at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith earlier this month

ldquoWe were very proud to return to that production It was the first play that we produced for Penrith and Western Sydney back in 2011 After bringing seven productions to the stage and to thousands of audience members with the Emu Heights Theatre Company there was a warm sense of coming full circle in directing this valuable human story from a fresh perspectiverdquo said Ian Zammit Artistic Director of the Emu Heights Theatre Company

In the year of the playrsquos 20th Anniversary and in the Centenary of the ANZAC it was sobering that John Mistorsquos play carried a more-than-ever relevant commentary on the politics of war from those who suffer as a result of it

Audiences were left wanting more after watching these powerful performances and it was the perfect way to finish for the theatre company ldquoI was personally proud of the array of talented generous arts professionals we brought together over the years to create these productions The hard-working company members within this production many of whom were from Western Sydney have warmly returned time and again to work with the Emu Heights Theatre Company It was the icing on the cakerdquo said Mr Zammit

The Emu Leonay Gazette would like to thank the Emu Heights Theatre Company for their valuable contribution to the local community over the last four years and wish them all the best for the future

PARENTS CORNER

Article by Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker ndash Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community amp Neighbourhood ServicesPh 0409 986 121 Centre 4721 8520 Blog httphandsheartsmindswordpresscom

Phil Nunn an Australian psychologist says that parenting is like having a rope around your waist Parenting is all about knowing when to let the rope out and when to reel it in

I take this metaphor a little bit further The rope around your waist is the relationship you have with your child

No rope = no relationship Without a relationship there is no letting out and no reeling in Your child is flailing about at the end of the rope without being hitched to something Thatrsquos a dangerous and scary place for a child to be In my experience most of these kids look angry This anger masks hurt all children want to feel connection and belonging with their primary caregivers

Without a strong and positive parent-child relationship your child will not listen to you and will not do as you ask It really is that simple I believe that having a strong relationship with your child is the most important thing that you can do as a parent

I reckon that building relationship is about 80 of the parenting effort So if you are disciplining and punishing your children about 80 of the time then think about taking an about-turn and concentrate on relationship instead and see how that changes things

So how do you develop a positive relationship with your child

Hugs touch care unconditional love attention spending time with them descriptive praise nurture listening to them when they talk are relationship builders

Things like put-downs name calling criticism teasing telling them that they are lsquobadrsquo or lsquonaughtyrsquo and swearing at your kids are relationship killers If you donrsquot like being treated that way donrsquot treat your kids that way

Lots of parents say to me ldquoI donrsquot have time to spend lots of time with my childrenrdquo Phooey Yoursquore already spending lots of time yelling at them arguing with them and punishing them What about the chores The washing-up police arenrsquot going to knock on your door any time soon And herersquos the best-kept secret to parenting ndash spending small amounts of time (a few minutes) regularly throughout the day is worth

more to your child than spending a half day per week If you are not doing anything super-important stop to listen to them or look at what they want to show you Top up their emotional cup as often as you can

If you are reading this and you think that your relationship is not that great with your kids and they are angry at you not listening to you and not doing as you ask then it is not too late Itrsquos never too late to build a relationship with your child

Dr Robyn Dolby also uses the rope metaphor to explain how parents relate to their children She says that if your child is used to being out on the end of the rope most of the time then you need to reel the rope IN very slowly Some parents pull on the rope too hard and the child pulls harder That will lead to even more fights Nope just reel that rope in very very slowly and prove to your child that you can be trusted to be the parent they need you to be

The same can be said for children who have been kept too close and too controlled (over protected) or kids who experience anxiety You need to let the rope OUT very slowly so they donrsquot get scared

Relationship It is essential to growing strong resilient healthy and happy humans Kids donrsquot need stuff they need YOU The relationship you have with your child is their first experience of love They will take what you teach them into their friendships and their intimate relationships What are you teaching them about love

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Can you believe we are almost half way through the year I know its clicheacute but where did the time go

As the year races by we find ourselves in Term 2 of school Easter has been and gone with Mothers Day just around the corner In the blink of an eye it will be the end of financial year and well be donning our winter woollies

This month we have some amazing stories of new beginnings like little Liams story on page 3 stories about the end of an era like that of Emu Heights Theatre Company on page 5 and stories about a time to reflect with Lewers latest exhibition on page 9

With Mothers Day falling on the second Sunday in May Narelle writes an insightful and very thought-provoking article about positive relationships on page 6 Well worth a read

Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are often the same

The Right Person For The JobDo you know someone you can rely upon Irsquove got a friend

who is a builder When I want something built I always go to him I know hersquoll do it well and that Irsquoll be happy with the result

Therersquos another thing too it doesnrsquot matter that I donrsquot know the first thing about building the quality of his work doesnrsquot depend on me

When it comes to us and God Jesus teaches a similar thing If you want to know God and His forgiveness over your life it doesnrsquot matter how much faith yoursquove got What matters is where you place it Jesus said that if we place our faith somewhere other than in Him and what Hersquos done itrsquoll be a mistake And perhaps the greatest danger we all face is to think that we can earn Godrsquos forgiveness But if instead we rely on Him for life and for forgiveness it doesnrsquot matter that wersquove got nothing to contribute to it what matters is His ability to get the job done

Thatrsquos a happy relief If you need a builder find one you can trust if you need a saviour do the same We donrsquot all need a builder but the Bible says we all need forgiveness If you want to check out whether Jesus matches up to his claims why not read Mark or Lukersquos gospel in a copy of the Bible If you havenrsquot got one get in contact and wersquoll give you one

Vicarys Winery Craft Market RelocatesThe founding stall holders have been at Vicarys Winery

Craft Markets for many years Due to the development of the Badgerys Creek Airport the markets there have now closed and relocated to Emu Plains (most of the stall holders are long standing locals to the area so it only made sense to choose Emu Plains)

Now called Emu Markets they will be located INSIDE the school hall at the Nepean Creative amp Performing Arts High School although there will also be some stalls on the grounds surrounding the hall

The Market is predominantly made up of stall holders that sell products that are generally not available in shops with special emphasis on goods amp crafts that have been made locally

The Vicarys Winery Craft Markets are held every second Sunday of the month Hope to see you there

Inquiries into the cause of the crash are continuingPolice are urging anyone with information in relation

to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page httpsnswcrimestopperscomau Information you provide will be treated in the strictest of confi dence We remind people they should not report crime information via our Facebook and Twitter pages

Final Curtain Call For Emu Heights Theatre Company After four years and seven productions Emu Heights Theatre Company bid one last

farewell with their final production of lsquoThe Shoe-Horn Sonatarsquo at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith earlier this month

ldquoWe were very proud to return to that production It was the first play that we produced for Penrith and Western Sydney back in 2011 After bringing seven productions to the stage and to thousands of audience members with the Emu Heights Theatre Company there was a warm sense of coming full circle in directing this valuable human story from a fresh perspectiverdquo said Ian Zammit Artistic Director of the Emu Heights Theatre Company

In the year of the playrsquos 20th Anniversary and in the Centenary of the ANZAC it was sobering that John Mistorsquos play carried a more-than-ever relevant commentary on the politics of war from those who suffer as a result of it

Audiences were left wanting more after watching these powerful performances and it was the perfect way to finish for the theatre company ldquoI was personally proud of the array of talented generous arts professionals we brought together over the years to create these productions The hard-working company members within this production many of whom were from Western Sydney have warmly returned time and again to work with the Emu Heights Theatre Company It was the icing on the cakerdquo said Mr Zammit

The Emu Leonay Gazette would like to thank the Emu Heights Theatre Company for their valuable contribution to the local community over the last four years and wish them all the best for the future

PARENTS CORNER

Article by Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker ndash Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community amp Neighbourhood ServicesPh 0409 986 121 Centre 4721 8520 Blog httphandsheartsmindswordpresscom

Phil Nunn an Australian psychologist says that parenting is like having a rope around your waist Parenting is all about knowing when to let the rope out and when to reel it in

I take this metaphor a little bit further The rope around your waist is the relationship you have with your child

No rope = no relationship Without a relationship there is no letting out and no reeling in Your child is flailing about at the end of the rope without being hitched to something Thatrsquos a dangerous and scary place for a child to be In my experience most of these kids look angry This anger masks hurt all children want to feel connection and belonging with their primary caregivers

Without a strong and positive parent-child relationship your child will not listen to you and will not do as you ask It really is that simple I believe that having a strong relationship with your child is the most important thing that you can do as a parent

I reckon that building relationship is about 80 of the parenting effort So if you are disciplining and punishing your children about 80 of the time then think about taking an about-turn and concentrate on relationship instead and see how that changes things

So how do you develop a positive relationship with your child

Hugs touch care unconditional love attention spending time with them descriptive praise nurture listening to them when they talk are relationship builders

Things like put-downs name calling criticism teasing telling them that they are lsquobadrsquo or lsquonaughtyrsquo and swearing at your kids are relationship killers If you donrsquot like being treated that way donrsquot treat your kids that way

Lots of parents say to me ldquoI donrsquot have time to spend lots of time with my childrenrdquo Phooey Yoursquore already spending lots of time yelling at them arguing with them and punishing them What about the chores The washing-up police arenrsquot going to knock on your door any time soon And herersquos the best-kept secret to parenting ndash spending small amounts of time (a few minutes) regularly throughout the day is worth

more to your child than spending a half day per week If you are not doing anything super-important stop to listen to them or look at what they want to show you Top up their emotional cup as often as you can

If you are reading this and you think that your relationship is not that great with your kids and they are angry at you not listening to you and not doing as you ask then it is not too late Itrsquos never too late to build a relationship with your child

Dr Robyn Dolby also uses the rope metaphor to explain how parents relate to their children She says that if your child is used to being out on the end of the rope most of the time then you need to reel the rope IN very slowly Some parents pull on the rope too hard and the child pulls harder That will lead to even more fights Nope just reel that rope in very very slowly and prove to your child that you can be trusted to be the parent they need you to be

The same can be said for children who have been kept too close and too controlled (over protected) or kids who experience anxiety You need to let the rope OUT very slowly so they donrsquot get scared

Relationship It is essential to growing strong resilient healthy and happy humans Kids donrsquot need stuff they need YOU The relationship you have with your child is their first experience of love They will take what you teach them into their friendships and their intimate relationships What are you teaching them about love

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

The Right Person For The JobDo you know someone you can rely upon Irsquove got a friend

who is a builder When I want something built I always go to him I know hersquoll do it well and that Irsquoll be happy with the result

Therersquos another thing too it doesnrsquot matter that I donrsquot know the first thing about building the quality of his work doesnrsquot depend on me

When it comes to us and God Jesus teaches a similar thing If you want to know God and His forgiveness over your life it doesnrsquot matter how much faith yoursquove got What matters is where you place it Jesus said that if we place our faith somewhere other than in Him and what Hersquos done itrsquoll be a mistake And perhaps the greatest danger we all face is to think that we can earn Godrsquos forgiveness But if instead we rely on Him for life and for forgiveness it doesnrsquot matter that wersquove got nothing to contribute to it what matters is His ability to get the job done

Thatrsquos a happy relief If you need a builder find one you can trust if you need a saviour do the same We donrsquot all need a builder but the Bible says we all need forgiveness If you want to check out whether Jesus matches up to his claims why not read Mark or Lukersquos gospel in a copy of the Bible If you havenrsquot got one get in contact and wersquoll give you one

Vicarys Winery Craft Market RelocatesThe founding stall holders have been at Vicarys Winery

Craft Markets for many years Due to the development of the Badgerys Creek Airport the markets there have now closed and relocated to Emu Plains (most of the stall holders are long standing locals to the area so it only made sense to choose Emu Plains)

Now called Emu Markets they will be located INSIDE the school hall at the Nepean Creative amp Performing Arts High School although there will also be some stalls on the grounds surrounding the hall

The Market is predominantly made up of stall holders that sell products that are generally not available in shops with special emphasis on goods amp crafts that have been made locally

The Vicarys Winery Craft Markets are held every second Sunday of the month Hope to see you there

Final Curtain Call For Emu Heights Theatre Company After four years and seven productions Emu Heights Theatre Company bid one last

farewell with their final production of lsquoThe Shoe-Horn Sonatarsquo at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith earlier this month

ldquoWe were very proud to return to that production It was the first play that we produced for Penrith and Western Sydney back in 2011 After bringing seven productions to the stage and to thousands of audience members with the Emu Heights Theatre Company there was a warm sense of coming full circle in directing this valuable human story from a fresh perspectiverdquo said Ian Zammit Artistic Director of the Emu Heights Theatre Company

In the year of the playrsquos 20th Anniversary and in the Centenary of the ANZAC it was sobering that John Mistorsquos play carried a more-than-ever relevant commentary on the politics of war from those who suffer as a result of it

Audiences were left wanting more after watching these powerful performances and it was the perfect way to finish for the theatre company ldquoI was personally proud of the array of talented generous arts professionals we brought together over the years to create these productions The hard-working company members within this production many of whom were from Western Sydney have warmly returned time and again to work with the Emu Heights Theatre Company It was the icing on the cakerdquo said Mr Zammit

The Emu Leonay Gazette would like to thank the Emu Heights Theatre Company for their valuable contribution to the local community over the last four years and wish them all the best for the future

PARENTS CORNER

Article by Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker ndash Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community amp Neighbourhood ServicesPh 0409 986 121 Centre 4721 8520 Blog httphandsheartsmindswordpresscom

Phil Nunn an Australian psychologist says that parenting is like having a rope around your waist Parenting is all about knowing when to let the rope out and when to reel it in

I take this metaphor a little bit further The rope around your waist is the relationship you have with your child

No rope = no relationship Without a relationship there is no letting out and no reeling in Your child is flailing about at the end of the rope without being hitched to something Thatrsquos a dangerous and scary place for a child to be In my experience most of these kids look angry This anger masks hurt all children want to feel connection and belonging with their primary caregivers

Without a strong and positive parent-child relationship your child will not listen to you and will not do as you ask It really is that simple I believe that having a strong relationship with your child is the most important thing that you can do as a parent

I reckon that building relationship is about 80 of the parenting effort So if you are disciplining and punishing your children about 80 of the time then think about taking an about-turn and concentrate on relationship instead and see how that changes things

So how do you develop a positive relationship with your child

Hugs touch care unconditional love attention spending time with them descriptive praise nurture listening to them when they talk are relationship builders

Things like put-downs name calling criticism teasing telling them that they are lsquobadrsquo or lsquonaughtyrsquo and swearing at your kids are relationship killers If you donrsquot like being treated that way donrsquot treat your kids that way

Lots of parents say to me ldquoI donrsquot have time to spend lots of time with my childrenrdquo Phooey Yoursquore already spending lots of time yelling at them arguing with them and punishing them What about the chores The washing-up police arenrsquot going to knock on your door any time soon And herersquos the best-kept secret to parenting ndash spending small amounts of time (a few minutes) regularly throughout the day is worth

more to your child than spending a half day per week If you are not doing anything super-important stop to listen to them or look at what they want to show you Top up their emotional cup as often as you can

If you are reading this and you think that your relationship is not that great with your kids and they are angry at you not listening to you and not doing as you ask then it is not too late Itrsquos never too late to build a relationship with your child

Dr Robyn Dolby also uses the rope metaphor to explain how parents relate to their children She says that if your child is used to being out on the end of the rope most of the time then you need to reel the rope IN very slowly Some parents pull on the rope too hard and the child pulls harder That will lead to even more fights Nope just reel that rope in very very slowly and prove to your child that you can be trusted to be the parent they need you to be

The same can be said for children who have been kept too close and too controlled (over protected) or kids who experience anxiety You need to let the rope OUT very slowly so they donrsquot get scared

Relationship It is essential to growing strong resilient healthy and happy humans Kids donrsquot need stuff they need YOU The relationship you have with your child is their first experience of love They will take what you teach them into their friendships and their intimate relationships What are you teaching them about love

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

The Right Person For The JobDo you know someone you can rely upon Irsquove got a friend

who is a builder When I want something built I always go to him I know hersquoll do it well and that Irsquoll be happy with the result

Therersquos another thing too it doesnrsquot matter that I donrsquot know the first thing about building the quality of his work doesnrsquot depend on me

When it comes to us and God Jesus teaches a similar thing If you want to know God and His forgiveness over your life it doesnrsquot matter how much faith yoursquove got What matters is where you place it Jesus said that if we place our faith somewhere other than in Him and what Hersquos done itrsquoll be a mistake And perhaps the greatest danger we all face is to think that we can earn Godrsquos forgiveness But if instead we rely on Him for life and for forgiveness it doesnrsquot matter that wersquove got nothing to contribute to it what matters is His ability to get the job done

Thatrsquos a happy relief If you need a builder find one you can trust if you need a saviour do the same We donrsquot all need a builder but the Bible says we all need forgiveness If you want to check out whether Jesus matches up to his claims why not read Mark or Lukersquos gospel in a copy of the Bible If you havenrsquot got one get in contact and wersquoll give you one

Vicarys Winery Craft Market RelocatesThe founding stall holders have been at Vicarys Winery

Craft Markets for many years Due to the development of the Badgerys Creek Airport the markets there have now closed and relocated to Emu Plains (most of the stall holders are long standing locals to the area so it only made sense to choose Emu Plains)

Now called Emu Markets they will be located INSIDE the school hall at the Nepean Creative amp Performing Arts High School although there will also be some stalls on the grounds surrounding the hall

The Market is predominantly made up of stall holders that sell products that are generally not available in shops with special emphasis on goods amp crafts that have been made locally

The Vicarys Winery Craft Markets are held every second Sunday of the month Hope to see you there

The driver was taken by road ambulance to Westmead Hospital and the front seat passenger who was trapped for a longer period of time was fl own to Westmead Hospital by helicopter Their conditions are unknown

Inquiries into the cause of the crash are continuingPolice are urging anyone with information in relation

to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page httpsnswcrimestopperscomau Information you provide will be treated in the strictest of confi dence We remind people they should not report crime information via our Facebook and Twitter pages

Final Curtain Call For Emu Heights Theatre Company After four years and seven productions Emu Heights Theatre Company bid one last

farewell with their final production of lsquoThe Shoe-Horn Sonatarsquo at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith earlier this month

ldquoWe were very proud to return to that production It was the first play that we produced for Penrith and Western Sydney back in 2011 After bringing seven productions to the stage and to thousands of audience members with the Emu Heights Theatre Company there was a warm sense of coming full circle in directing this valuable human story from a fresh perspectiverdquo said Ian Zammit Artistic Director of the Emu Heights Theatre Company

In the year of the playrsquos 20th Anniversary and in the Centenary of the ANZAC it was sobering that John Mistorsquos play carried a more-than-ever relevant commentary on the politics of war from those who suffer as a result of it

Audiences were left wanting more after watching these powerful performances and it was the perfect way to finish for the theatre company ldquoI was personally proud of the array of talented generous arts professionals we brought together over the years to create these productions The hard-working company members within this production many of whom were from Western Sydney have warmly returned time and again to work with the Emu Heights Theatre Company It was the icing on the cakerdquo said Mr Zammit

The Emu Leonay Gazette would like to thank the Emu Heights Theatre Company for their valuable contribution to the local community over the last four years and wish them all the best for the future

PARENTS CORNER

Article by Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker ndash Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community amp Neighbourhood ServicesPh 0409 986 121 Centre 4721 8520 Blog httphandsheartsmindswordpresscom

Phil Nunn an Australian psychologist says that parenting is like having a rope around your waist Parenting is all about knowing when to let the rope out and when to reel it in

I take this metaphor a little bit further The rope around your waist is the relationship you have with your child

No rope = no relationship Without a relationship there is no letting out and no reeling in Your child is flailing about at the end of the rope without being hitched to something Thatrsquos a dangerous and scary place for a child to be In my experience most of these kids look angry This anger masks hurt all children want to feel connection and belonging with their primary caregivers

Without a strong and positive parent-child relationship your child will not listen to you and will not do as you ask It really is that simple I believe that having a strong relationship with your child is the most important thing that you can do as a parent

I reckon that building relationship is about 80 of the parenting effort So if you are disciplining and punishing your children about 80 of the time then think about taking an about-turn and concentrate on relationship instead and see how that changes things

So how do you develop a positive relationship with your child

Hugs touch care unconditional love attention spending time with them descriptive praise nurture listening to them when they talk are relationship builders

Things like put-downs name calling criticism teasing telling them that they are lsquobadrsquo or lsquonaughtyrsquo and swearing at your kids are relationship killers If you donrsquot like being treated that way donrsquot treat your kids that way

Lots of parents say to me ldquoI donrsquot have time to spend lots of time with my childrenrdquo Phooey Yoursquore already spending lots of time yelling at them arguing with them and punishing them What about the chores The washing-up police arenrsquot going to knock on your door any time soon And herersquos the best-kept secret to parenting ndash spending small amounts of time (a few minutes) regularly throughout the day is worth

more to your child than spending a half day per week If you are not doing anything super-important stop to listen to them or look at what they want to show you Top up their emotional cup as often as you can

If you are reading this and you think that your relationship is not that great with your kids and they are angry at you not listening to you and not doing as you ask then it is not too late Itrsquos never too late to build a relationship with your child

Dr Robyn Dolby also uses the rope metaphor to explain how parents relate to their children She says that if your child is used to being out on the end of the rope most of the time then you need to reel the rope IN very slowly Some parents pull on the rope too hard and the child pulls harder That will lead to even more fights Nope just reel that rope in very very slowly and prove to your child that you can be trusted to be the parent they need you to be

The same can be said for children who have been kept too close and too controlled (over protected) or kids who experience anxiety You need to let the rope OUT very slowly so they donrsquot get scared

Relationship It is essential to growing strong resilient healthy and happy humans Kids donrsquot need stuff they need YOU The relationship you have with your child is their first experience of love They will take what you teach them into their friendships and their intimate relationships What are you teaching them about love

Police Investigate OMCG-Related Shooting ndash Penrith

Police are appealing for witnesses to a public-place shooting in Penrith last month

About 615pm (Sunday 19 April 2015) a number of shots were fi red at a white Toyota Hilux in the car park of a shopping centre on Station Street

Police arrived a short time later and arrested a 24-year-old man inside the shopping centre

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Final Curtain Call For Emu Heights Theatre Company After four years and seven productions Emu Heights Theatre Company bid one last

farewell with their final production of lsquoThe Shoe-Horn Sonatarsquo at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre in Penrith earlier this month

ldquoWe were very proud to return to that production It was the first play that we produced for Penrith and Western Sydney back in 2011 After bringing seven productions to the stage and to thousands of audience members with the Emu Heights Theatre Company there was a warm sense of coming full circle in directing this valuable human story from a fresh perspectiverdquo said Ian Zammit Artistic Director of the Emu Heights Theatre Company

In the year of the playrsquos 20th Anniversary and in the Centenary of the ANZAC it was sobering that John Mistorsquos play carried a more-than-ever relevant commentary on the politics of war from those who suffer as a result of it

Audiences were left wanting more after watching these powerful performances and it was the perfect way to finish for the theatre company ldquoI was personally proud of the array of talented generous arts professionals we brought together over the years to create these productions The hard-working company members within this production many of whom were from Western Sydney have warmly returned time and again to work with the Emu Heights Theatre Company It was the icing on the cakerdquo said Mr Zammit

The Emu Leonay Gazette would like to thank the Emu Heights Theatre Company for their valuable contribution to the local community over the last four years and wish them all the best for the future

PARENTS CORNER

Article by Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker ndash Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community amp Neighbourhood ServicesPh 0409 986 121 Centre 4721 8520 Blog httphandsheartsmindswordpresscom

Phil Nunn an Australian psychologist says that parenting is like having a rope around your waist Parenting is all about knowing when to let the rope out and when to reel it in

I take this metaphor a little bit further The rope around your waist is the relationship you have with your child

No rope = no relationship Without a relationship there is no letting out and no reeling in Your child is flailing about at the end of the rope without being hitched to something Thatrsquos a dangerous and scary place for a child to be In my experience most of these kids look angry This anger masks hurt all children want to feel connection and belonging with their primary caregivers

Without a strong and positive parent-child relationship your child will not listen to you and will not do as you ask It really is that simple I believe that having a strong relationship with your child is the most important thing that you can do as a parent

I reckon that building relationship is about 80 of the parenting effort So if you are disciplining and punishing your children about 80 of the time then think about taking an about-turn and concentrate on relationship instead and see how that changes things

So how do you develop a positive relationship with your child

Hugs touch care unconditional love attention spending time with them descriptive praise nurture listening to them when they talk are relationship builders

Things like put-downs name calling criticism teasing telling them that they are lsquobadrsquo or lsquonaughtyrsquo and swearing at your kids are relationship killers If you donrsquot like being treated that way donrsquot treat your kids that way

Lots of parents say to me ldquoI donrsquot have time to spend lots of time with my childrenrdquo Phooey Yoursquore already spending lots of time yelling at them arguing with them and punishing them What about the chores The washing-up police arenrsquot going to knock on your door any time soon And herersquos the best-kept secret to parenting ndash spending small amounts of time (a few minutes) regularly throughout the day is worth

more to your child than spending a half day per week If you are not doing anything super-important stop to listen to them or look at what they want to show you Top up their emotional cup as often as you can

If you are reading this and you think that your relationship is not that great with your kids and they are angry at you not listening to you and not doing as you ask then it is not too late Itrsquos never too late to build a relationship with your child

Dr Robyn Dolby also uses the rope metaphor to explain how parents relate to their children She says that if your child is used to being out on the end of the rope most of the time then you need to reel the rope IN very slowly Some parents pull on the rope too hard and the child pulls harder That will lead to even more fights Nope just reel that rope in very very slowly and prove to your child that you can be trusted to be the parent they need you to be

The same can be said for children who have been kept too close and too controlled (over protected) or kids who experience anxiety You need to let the rope OUT very slowly so they donrsquot get scared

Relationship It is essential to growing strong resilient healthy and happy humans Kids donrsquot need stuff they need YOU The relationship you have with your child is their first experience of love They will take what you teach them into their friendships and their intimate relationships What are you teaching them about love

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

PARENTS CORNER

Article by Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker ndash Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community amp Neighbourhood ServicesPh 0409 986 121 Centre 4721 8520 Blog httphandsheartsmindswordpresscom

Phil Nunn an Australian psychologist says that parenting is like having a rope around your waist Parenting is all about knowing when to let the rope out and when to reel it in

I take this metaphor a little bit further The rope around your waist is the relationship you have with your child

No rope = no relationship Without a relationship there is no letting out and no reeling in Your child is flailing about at the end of the rope without being hitched to something Thatrsquos a dangerous and scary place for a child to be In my experience most of these kids look angry This anger masks hurt all children want to feel connection and belonging with their primary caregivers

Without a strong and positive parent-child relationship your child will not listen to you and will not do as you ask It really is that simple I believe that having a strong relationship with your child is the most important thing that you can do as a parent

I reckon that building relationship is about 80 of the parenting effort So if you are disciplining and punishing your children about 80 of the time then think about taking an about-turn and concentrate on relationship instead and see how that changes things

So how do you develop a positive relationship with your child

Hugs touch care unconditional love attention spending time with them descriptive praise nurture listening to them when they talk are relationship builders

Things like put-downs name calling criticism teasing telling them that they are lsquobadrsquo or lsquonaughtyrsquo and swearing at your kids are relationship killers If you donrsquot like being treated that way donrsquot treat your kids that way

Lots of parents say to me ldquoI donrsquot have time to spend lots of time with my childrenrdquo Phooey Yoursquore already spending lots of time yelling at them arguing with them and punishing them What about the chores The washing-up police arenrsquot going to knock on your door any time soon And herersquos the best-kept secret to parenting ndash spending small amounts of time (a few minutes) regularly throughout the day is worth

more to your child than spending a half day per week If you are not doing anything super-important stop to listen to them or look at what they want to show you Top up their emotional cup as often as you can

If you are reading this and you think that your relationship is not that great with your kids and they are angry at you not listening to you and not doing as you ask then it is not too late Itrsquos never too late to build a relationship with your child

Dr Robyn Dolby also uses the rope metaphor to explain how parents relate to their children She says that if your child is used to being out on the end of the rope most of the time then you need to reel the rope IN very slowly Some parents pull on the rope too hard and the child pulls harder That will lead to even more fights Nope just reel that rope in very very slowly and prove to your child that you can be trusted to be the parent they need you to be

The same can be said for children who have been kept too close and too controlled (over protected) or kids who experience anxiety You need to let the rope OUT very slowly so they donrsquot get scared

Relationship It is essential to growing strong resilient healthy and happy humans Kids donrsquot need stuff they need YOU The relationship you have with your child is their first experience of love They will take what you teach them into their friendships and their intimate relationships What are you teaching them about love

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Bereaved Mothers Day 2015Mothers Day is a painful and challenging celebration for

mums whorsquos child has died This is made more unbearable by advertising and the media showing happy families with their children So in 2010 Anna Jarvis had the idea to celebrate bereaved mums honouring her own mum who had 7 children die This day falls on the first Sunday in May

Not all mums have a child to show for their motherhood itrsquos an emotional time Some women are confused about their status ldquoCan I call myself a motherrdquo The answer is ldquoYes you canrdquo You carried this precious baby inside of you (it doesnrsquot matter if it was a short time or till term)

So if you or someone you know has had a baby die (before during or after birth) here are some ideas to help you celebrate your motherhoodAcknowledgement

What a bereaved mother wants most is acknowledgement that she is a mother Celebrate her motherhood wish her a ldquoHappy Motherrsquos Dayrdquo Say her childrsquos name

Hearing your babyrsquos name is magical Take the time to talk about her child look through pictures and let her tell you about her experience of her child This helps keep the memory alive In a strange way it assists you through grief because you realise that your child will never come back but will always live in your memory

HomeFront Exhibition on Show

The 100 year anniversary of the 25 April 1915 landing and commencement of battle at ANZAC Cove Gallipoli presents a very special opportunity for Australians to reflect upon its involvement in military conflict and to give thanks for the sacrifice of the many Australians who have served their country this past century The exhibition Home Front is Penrith Regional Gallery amp The Lewers Bequestrsquos contribution to this anniversary Artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell was commissioned to explore the individual human dimension to conflict and to convey the means by which those who served maintained their humanity sense of self home and humour throughout a bloody and senseless campaign

As a point of departure Catherine OrsquoDonnell explored the available historical record before travelling to Turkey in March and April of 2014 As the artist walked Gallipolirsquos scarred earth she found the scattered relics of war - pieces of shrapnel fragments of bone and barbed wire protruding from the earth and everywhere trenches worn to gentle furrows - the detritus of the worldrsquos first modern war From her research and experience artist Catherine OrsquoDonnell has produced a series of large scale monochromatic drawings which situate servicemen and nurses at rest proximate to the temporary digs trenches bunkers and tents where these individuals lived worked and fought for eight long months Working from historical photographs as her reference OrsquoDonnell positions the subjects of her drawing in direct relation to the viewer It is a gaze that is not easily averted On show until 24 May

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable

Vegemite SandwichesUnless yoursquove been living under a rock you know that the property market is hot

right now and the right home can be hard to come by The tendency in this type of market is to get caught up in the fervour and over extend your fi nances

When purchasing property level heads are required because paying more than you can aff ord for your dream home can be disastrous First time buyers without the experience of living with a mortgage are particularly susceptible to this trap

Over the years I have developed what we jokingly call in the offi ce my ldquovegemite sandwichrdquo talk during which I sit down with my clients discuss their goals and objectives work though the numbers to see what is aff ordable for them (not just what they can borrow) and put a plan in place to achieve them

And thatrsquos where the vegemite sandwiches come in You see sometimes my clients may not be ready to purchase straight away and often donrsquot know how to fi x that Most of the time it comes down to savings because saving money can be hard unless you have the right mindset and focus on your goal

Taking a vegemite sandwich to work instead of buying lunch will save you about $1500 in six months Skipping that Barista made coff ee another $600 Dinner at home rather than the Restaurant $2600 You get the idea

Regardless of the position my clients are in I always recommend saving more and borrowing less because for every $1 more you save is $3 less you have to repay Think of it like this itrsquos not a sacrifi ce but an investment Yoursquore not paying the price yoursquore reaping the rewards Who knew that vegemite sandwiches could be so valuable
