CHANGE IS COMING R

eal Estate advertising has always been a vital and much valued component of many quality newspaper and magazine publications. That said, independent publications like Orange City Life rarely get the opportunity to ‘strut their stuff’ in this area, however, the agents you see here decided the time was now for change, agreeing to advertise with us.

It is with great pleasure and 2

DECEMBER 22, 2016–JANUARY 18, 2017

satisfaction that we can announce that from our first issue of Orange City Life for 2017, we will carry a new weekly Real Estate supplement called ‘Your Place’.

This is no small thing for OCL; this extra cushion these wonderful local agents give us will mean we must employ 3-4 more locals to come work with—and more importantly be a part of—our tight little team. My motto this year has been to try to maximise

what we do in every aspect – to be able to give more locals jobs as a result gives me a sense of pride I’d not thought possible. It is truly awesome to be in this position.

‘Your Place’—your all-local agency guide—will appear in the middle of OC Life each week and carry a prominent amount of real estate, naturally, along with plenty of other great and helpful reading, covering a variety of topics.

It’s a very exciting time for our team here and we’re looking forward to knocking your socks off, so to speak, as we fully develop 'Your Place' over coming weeks. I do hope you not only enjoy it, but please support and get behind these locals as they get behind us.

For now however, and to help us launch our new ‘Your Place’ supplement, this issue of OC Life features a special 16 page Real

Estate ‘wrap-around’ to give you a preview of what’s to come.

As always, hugs!

Jamie (Stedo) Stedman Managing Editor Orange City Life

hat a year! We set out this year to do ‘more’. Bit of a fluffy concept but we think we nailed it!

We had, on average, more pages, more photos and attended more social events. We’ve got more advertisers and we’ve been told more times how great we are – Thanks for that, by the way. Where to from here is anyone’s guess but whatever happens, we will keep trying to do ‘more’.

The entire team of Orange City Life would like to

wish you and yours all the best for the festive season.

Stay safe, be well and enjoy any time you get to spend with your family.

Now, to next year... It’s shaping up to be a very big and exciting year for not only our team here, but also for our valued readers. Our new Your Place supplement is just the start of a number of new initiatives we have on the drawing board. Thanks to you the readers, and our very appreciated advertisers, Orange City Life appears to be going from strength to strength and is still as popular, if not more so, than it has been for the last few years. We’re VERY keen to keep it all going and stay true to our Mission Statement that says “We strive to produce a magazine that supports, encourages and brings out the best in people”.

Whilst on our advertisers, I just wanted to say a huge “thank you” to each and every one of them. Without them, we simply don’t exist.

Whatever your needs are, I am sure there is someone inside these pages that can help you out. Please give them a call.

Our last Looney Lotto winner for 2016 is Margaret Livermore. Congrats Margaret.

Looney Lotto will kick off again on January 19 next year with sincere thanks, as always, to John Colgan and his team at Newey’s Drive Thru Cleaners for their continued support of the Looney Lotto feature.

As my final send off for the year, may I take the chance to wish you all a happy and safe festive season.

May the three-week break begin!

CHRISTMAS IN O-TOWN

COMMENT

PHOTO BY MELISE COLEMAN

WELL GEEZ THAT WENT QUICK!

T

There are no limits when it comes to Christmas Spirit!

H

i, my name is Melise and I have OCD (Obsessive Christmas Disorder).

When out on a job at Cook Park recently, OC Life’s very hard working photographer (me) caught the eye of a small fourlegged animal trotting around, walking his human.

There was nothing ordinary about this animal, with giant dreamy eyes, a smile that could light up a room and an outfit that was elegant among the rest! OK...

so by now you would have looked at the photo and realised I am talking about this seven-monthold, beautiful British Bulldog, but seriously, he is cute right!?

When stumbling upon Troy Coles and his dog ‘The Notorious Big’, I couldn’t resist snapping a picture of him in his Christmas attire!

‘Biggie’ enjoys Christmas turkey and long walks on the beach, for all the British Bulldogs out there, Biggie is in fact single! Troy

has planned to dress as Santa on Christmas so Biggie will then swap to a reindeer suit, hence why he is out exercising the Christmas suit now.

Biggie hinted that he has a giant bone and big jar of peanut butter on his Christmas list.

Getting in the Christmas Spirit is what I like to see!

We hope that you have enjoyed Biggie’s photos as much as he enjoyed posing.

Merry Christmas!

he last edition for 2016 and, whilst I can’t speak for the rest of the team, I’m pretty sure they are looking forward to the break as much as I am. It has been a big 12 months.

As you now know, we’ll have a well-supported Real Estate guide from our first edition back, something I am very proud of. These agents have put their faith (and money) in the OC Life team and we are determined to knock their socks off! The decision from them wasn’t an easy one to make; they’ve all done things differently for a long time now so to give us this opportunity is much appreciated. Time will only tell as to how it will go but, with theirs and your continued support, I am certain we can make it great.

Now, as the year comes to an end, I like to talk about some of my favourites from this year, be them stories or just anecdotal things, these are often the things that reaffirm in my mind, the good things we do here.

Fav story – Hayden Innes.

Hayden is the young Sharks supporter doing nice things for the elderly in our community.

Not for accolades but just because he can. This kid is a cracker and whilst I am a massive Roosters fan, I was secretly wishing good things for the Sharks just for Hayden.

Hope you’re well little man, you managed to bring a tear to more than one or two people and that’s bloody special.

Fav sporting moment – Emus winning the local Rugby GF was good to watch again as an explayer, alongside many of the chaps I played with. I suspect some of us enjoyed it more

WORDS BY JAMIE STEDMAN

than we should have but it was good to watch. That moment though pales into insignifi cance compared to the smile my little bloke produced when he made his fi rst ‘big’ tackle in Rugby.

He’s not naturally into the footy as much as some of his mates and when one of the opposition team ran at him he simply couldn’t avoid the tackle. He did his thing and got nailed but held on. When he got up and realised he wasn’t hurt he was as proud as punch… and that made me proud too! I couldn’t care less if my kids don’t achieve high things in anything they do, I only care that whilst doing ‘things’, they give 100%. That one tackle showed me he’d listened to his coaches and he tried his hardest.

Proud dad right here!

Fav team moment – Every time we laugh together. I encourage a bit of silly in the offi ce, Ben generally takes it too far – another reason his Christmas break will be small – but without the silly we can’t enjoy what we do as much as we do and I think that would come out in the magazine through the text.

We are a tight little team here and we love what we do; we celebrate the successes together.

That’s about it for this year.

In 2017 I will be on the hunt for people to join our team as we need to expand a little, this too gives me great satisfaction as I never thought I’d one day be in a position to do so.

BARBARA

EDGE WORDS BY TOBY BETTS

WITH CHRISTMAS AROUND THE CORNER, AND THIS BEING THE LAST OF MY ARTICLES FOR THE YEAR, I DECIDED TO FOCUS ON THE OLD HOLIDAY SPIRIT OF HELPING THOSE IN NEED. This quest led me to Barbara Edge, one of the Head Coaches of Orange’s wonderful Riding for the Disabled Association; a charity organisation that helps disabled kids by providing them with horse-riding activities for therapeutic purposes. I sat down with Barbara for an insight into how the association works and her involvement with it.

How did you first get involved with the RDA and what is your role there?

“I lost my husband in ’96 and a friend of mine recommended that, since I like horses and children, I could join Orange’s branch of Riding for the Disabled to help alleviate the grief, which it did thankfully. I’ve been working with them for 21 years now as the Secretary, Publicity officer and Head Coach.”

How exactly does RDA operate?

“Well, we mainly take disabled kids and arrange riding sessions for them with the horses we have out at Clifton

Grove. While we’ve bought some horses, a lot of them have actually been donated by people. Right now, the RDA has a program with schools like Anson Street and Glenroi Heights so that kids from there are often given sessions, although parents can ring us up and arrange sessions for their kids if they have a disability and a letter from their doctor, we’ll book them in if we can and show them around the facilities.”

Who are your primary clientele?

How do they benefit?

“We’ve found that kids suffering from cerebral palsy or kids in wheelchairs have had an easier time riding on horseback and it seems to help with their movement afterwards. Autistic kids have also benefited from the sessions, we’ve had 5-year olds who were almost entirely non-verbal to start off with, but then they make friends with the horses and suddenly it’s hard to get them to stop talking.”

How does the RDA receive most of its funding?

“The RDA is a non-profit organisation so we’ll occasionally do some fundraising, we receive a lot of donations. IGA has been particularly good to us, every month we have a fundraising barbecue and IGA supply pretty much everything.”

What is involved in the sessions you do with kids?

“We do up to five classes a day on Wednesday during school terms. What we actually do in the class depends on who’s there. For example when Anson Street School has their class it’s often quite labourintensive since a lot of kids there have physical disabilities, so we have the leader who takes the horse and then a side-walker on either side of it. We then have a coach who writes out a program for each child, what their goal is, what their abilities are and the like, and they set a lesson plan to help overcome some the diffiulties they’ll have because of their disabilities. At one point I was

the only coach, and when you have schools come over for 5 classes a day, 5 days a week it certainly takes a lot out of you. Nowadays I only go once a week for the day since I’m not as young as I used to be and I have dialysis 3 days a week.”

What do you get the most out of being a volunteer for the RDA? “Well, aside from the camaraderie of the volunteers, we’re all like a big family, I really enjoy seeing the kids enjoy themselves, I enjoy it when they’re able to achieve something that they wouldn’t be able to do on their own, I enjoy it when autistic kids can ride for the first time and just how delighted they are, it really gives you a good buzz.”

How can people support the RDA? “If they want to get involved they can always ring me, I usually put an ad in the paper letting people know we’re having a get-together and they can come over, have some morning-tea and consider becoming volunteers, or they can rock up

any Wednesday during the school term to have a look around and consider joining. We have about 3540 volunteers who are invaluable and we couldn’t appreciate the help more, plus the kids over at Kinross who will come over some terms to help out, it’s all just wonderful.”

Whether it’s about volunteering for a charity or just giving a friend a hand, Christmas is all about giving and being a decent person. At the risk of filibustering, I’d like to invite everyone reading this to go out and do something to help thy fellow man. It doesn’t have to be much, donate some clothes to the Salvos, help someone with their shopping, offer to help move your neighbour’s fridge, anything!

Most of all remember to stay safe and have a very Merry Christmas.

With love,

At Christmas, don’t forget your

FUR BABIES WHILST CHRISTMAS CAN BE LOTS OF FUN FOR THE HUMANS IN THE FAMILY, THERE ARE SOME EXTRA CONSIDERATIONS TO BE MADE FOR OUR FUR FAMILY DURING THE HOLIDAYS:

M

any of the yummy Christmas foods we love can be poisonous to pets.

Chocolate, onions, nuts, blue cheese, fruit cakes, puddings and mince pies can all be toxic to dogs. Put them away with a pig’s ear or stuffed Kong to keep them occupied before you sit down to eat and make sure they can’t ‘help themselves’ to the left overs on the bench. It’s also important to put your dogs away when decorating the Christmas tree as they often want to ‘help’ by grabbing the tinsel and baubles in their mouths. These can be a choking hazard - as can gift

decorations, dropped lollies and small toys.

New Year’s Eve fireworks can be very stressful for our dogs in particular.

Dogs have acute hearing which makes fireworks sound much louder to them. Many dogs get frightened and escape with others becoming destructive if they can’t get away from the noises.

Ensure your fences are secure and your dog is wearing his collar and name tag with your telephone number engraved on it Give your dog a safe place to hide

in the house—either a laundry or crate that can be covered. Closing the blinds can also help. If your dog is an outside dog, dedicate a safe area in an enclosed shed or garage.

Exercise your dog during the day so he is more settled and relaxed before the fireworks start. Give him a stuffed Kong or puzzle toy to occupy him during the fireworks.

Thunder shirts are a good option as they use acupressure and maintain pressure to reduce stress in dogs.

‘Through a dog’s ear’ music can be

downloaded and played to help calm your dogs as well.

It’s important not to punish your dog for being stressed as he has no control over this anxiety. Help him feel safe during this time and let him snuggle up with his human if you are home. Contact your Vet ahead of time if you know your dog will be anxious – medication may be required in severe cases.

Ensure your dog has plenty of shade and water over the Christmas period when it is traditionally hotter.

Clam shell pools are a good source of water and a great place for dogs

to cool off. Remember, if it’s hot for you, so too is it hot for your dog!

Call and see your Vet if you are travelling with your pet. You may need additional preventatives like Heart Worm treatment and/ or Paralysis Tick or Flea treatments before you leave If you are placing your dog in a boarding facility, seek recommendations from people you trust and take the time to visit yourself before entrusting your beloved animals for care.

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope 2017 is a wonderful year for you all!

PAUL TIERNEY HOSTS A WEEKLY RADIO PROGRAM ON MONDAY FROM 5-7PM ON 107.5 COMMUNITY FM

Merry Christma...

Aussie Christmas songs are the best ones around, they get a big run on my iPod and at our place in December.

I

t’s been nearly two months since I first heard a Christmas carol echoing around in a shop. Not joking—Sunday November 6th was the fi rst time that ‘Let it snow’ played in a place where I was shopping.

This is astonishing on many fronts, especially thinking it was just 5 days since I crashed and burned (again) on The Cup, and had only just planted the tomatoes. Whilst I’m probably overanalysing the amount of thought given to the content of the playlists that retailers use for their Christmas ‘muzak’, I’d love to be the guy in charge of that important job—I reckon I could actually make it attractive for shoppers to come in to my place. I’d like to think they might even want to listen to the tunes as they make their purchases.

Why play ‘Frosty the Snowman’, or ‘I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas’, or even ‘Winter Wonderland’? It makes little sense (kind of like

16

DECEMBER 22, 2016–JANUARY 18, 2017

snowy decorations on your tree, but I digress) when it’s 30 degrees outside and there’s so many great tunes from the land down under that say everything about life on a hot summer’s day in December and still respect the importance of the occasion.

My number one favourite Christmas song has to be ‘Santa Claus is back in town’, by 80s legends Australian Crawl. It’s a modified winter tune, all about the heat and a summer celebration, with James Reyne using the catchcry “Merry Christma …”, which has become an overused statement in our household over the past 20 years. Slim Dusty has ‘Old Time Christmas’, Hoodoo Gurus did ‘Tojo’ about the tragedy of cyclone Tracy in ’74. Of course, everybody knows the song by Aussie country singer Colin Buchanan called ‘Jingle Bells Australia’ —always sung at the top of our voices around about 4pm on Christmas day (but never played in a supermarket … why not??). ‘Apocalypso’ by Mental as Anything might be a bit out there for the shops to play,

but it’d be better than Frosty, I reckon. Greg Champion and Greg Doolan have recorded summer Christmas gems including ‘Australia Let Us Barbeque’, ‘12 Days of Aussie Christmas’, ‘Christmas in the scrub’ and ‘Carol of the Birds’. If you’ve never heard any of the songs, I’m suggesting you get on to the ol’ YouTube and give them all a run—you’ll never go back to Bing Crosby or Mariah Carey again!

Make sure you’ve got the tissues handy before you listen to Tim Michin’s ‘White Wine in the Sun’, (about his family Christmas), you’ll be singing “I, really like Christmas …” over and over, or Paul Kelly’s ‘How to make Gravy’ (about the dad who is stuck in jail over the festive season). It’s a real shame that we don’t give more airplay to these tunes at this time of year.

I got a bit naughty on my radio show last year and played a song, sung by a little kid, called ‘I farted on Santa’s lap’, detailing the horror a child felt when she thought she’d get no pressies after letting one go in the presence of the big fella. Much to her delight, Santa is human too, and made no judgements on the little girl, with her Christmas dreams coming true.

Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten what Christmas is really about. I believe I have a happy balance of the true meaning of the word, as well as a solid appreciation of living in the lucky country.

Anyway, thanks for reading and for your support this year. Catch you again in 2017.

Merry Christma...

The all-star jam of Orange’s musical elite.

AS THE YEAR BEGINS TO WIND DOWN THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE SECOND MIXED TAPE PERFORMANCE FROM ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR OF CLASSIC ALBUM EVENINGS.

I

nvolving 13 local musicians playing 3 numbers each from classic albums by artists such as John Lennon, Crowded House, Nirvana, Billy Joel, Jewel, Led Zeppelin and Joni Mitchel.

They pumped out an eclectic mix of sounds across two stages dishing up a continuous feast for the audience of the sold out show.

Proceedings for the night got underway from Megan Costa in a festive red dress performing her three cuts from Jewel, followed

by Pat O’Donnell’s cuts from Imagine, that moved the crowd.

Kellie O’Donnell continued with an impassioned delivery of Joni Mitchell’s Blue and then the crowd was mesmerised by the fretronics of Matt Arthur as he effortlessly recreated selections from Eric Clapton’s Unplugged.

Kyle Manning pounded the keys of his Korg keyboard while reeling through some classic

selections of Billy Joel. Ben McGarity slipped between Crowded House, Nirvana and David Bowie optimising his outstanding performance with a series of loops bringing the audience to a climax before intermission.

After a short break for delicious desserts and coffee the flipside unleashed the Justice League of jams on the audience.

Kyle Manning backing Linda Manwarring for Norah Jones; Pat & Kellie O’Donnel delightful duets; the KB TV themes from Kyle & Ben captivated the audience, collectively reliving their misspent youth in front of the TV. A second helping of Joni Mitchell from the Court and Spark album, was sensationally delivered by Orange music royalty Trouble with Johnny.

The finale was from Led Zeppelin IV with blistering solos from Matt Arthur and wailing vocals of Pat

O’Donnell. A monster jam encore of The Beatles Get Back brought the mixed tape evening to its end.

A great night of music had been enjoyed by all, but there was more to the evening than just having a good time. The night was a fundraiser for Beyond Blue, the organisation doing great work for helping people to fight depression. All the musicians played for free, coupled with monies from ticket sales and generous donations throughout the night, $8000 was raised. The night proved that the Agrestic Grocer is a live venue that provides some of the best music to be savoured anywhere not just in Orange, but they and the artists that play there, have their hearts in the right place.

Ruby Tuesday evenings will reconvene in January and I for one will be booking early (to avoid missing out) and often.

ere’s the latest breakdown in the social order: people honking, flashing their lights, or revving their engine at an L-plater who has the nerve to make a harmless mistake, making their trip last 10 seconds longer than it otherwise would have. OK, this doesn’t happen every time, but it happens often enough.

Luckily, my son isn’t as sensitive as I was at his age: I would have jumped out of the car and declared that I was “never going to be good at driving.

Ever!”

It seems society is becoming increasingly more thoughtless.

Harassing an L-plater who errs on the side of caution at an intersection, or heaven forbid, stalls the car at a roundabout, is not something I can recall experiencing.

So why are people so quick to anger these days? Why don’t they just accept things as they are? I don’t think it’s a conscious thing – they don’t sit around saying “Hey, how can I make other people feel bad and make myself feel superior in the process?”

Nope—it’s completely unconscious.

If you listen to Eckhart Tolle, author of best-sellers The Power of Now and A New Earth, unconsciousness is exactly the problem. People are no longer present —our minds are scattered all over the place focusing on the past, the future, what could be and what should be—never what is. We simply lose our grasp on the ease and simplicity of reality.

The truth is, we can all wait 10 seconds.

My son and I don’t drive in peak hour traffic (not that Orange really has peak hour traffic), but even if we did, can you imagine a boss saying “look, if you got here 10 seconds earlier I wouldn’t be having this conversation with you—but we’re going to have to let you go.”

We just get caught up in our own minds and forget that we’re getting upset at things we can’t control. We also

WITH DENISE MILLS

forget what really matters. What could matter more in 80-odd years of life than being a somewhat decent human being?

I think we all think far too big when it comes to contributing to society. I know I’ve been guilty of it. We attend charity events, occasionally donate time or money to a worthy cause, help a friend when they’re in need… all the while forgetting about the little things that flow on to change the world every day.

Things like treating the waitress like a real person (gasp!), smiling at the checkout chick even if we’re in a bad mood (double gasp!), and hey—not honking our horns, revving our car engines or flashing our car lights an L-plater who makes a mistake. Or anyone who makes a mistake, for that matter. Can we reserve honking for avoiding accidents?

The idea that we’re all moving faster and becoming more irrational is more than a perception. Amazon has discovered that a 10th of a second increase in the loading time of its website reduces sales by 1 per cent.

Can you imagine that? “I really want this book but, somewhere between 0 and 1/10th of a second I lost interest.

I’m just too damn busy!!”

Picture the outrage and corresponding decline in Amazon sales if buyers had to wait 10 seconds! The company would go broke.

We’re living through an epidemic of insanity where we’re out of patience and out of our minds. You know the old saying “there’s no point crying over spilt milk”? It really is a good one. The milk just sits there on the floor and pays no attention to your salty tears.

Maybe one day we’ll collectively wake up and say “you know what? I don’t want to be this miserable. I don’t want to be angry when I spill milk, sit behind an imperfect L-plater, or wait an extra 1/10th of a second for a webpage to load. Life is too darn short.”

Perhaps the small actions we take to slow down and accept life as it is, in this precise moment, contribute far more to society than making the occasional grandiose gesture. It also results in a much more peaceful life.

See you out on the roads!

CHRISTMAS IN ORANGE

WORDS BY BOB HOLLAND

About Christmas...

WHEN I FIRST SAW A DRAWING LIKE THIS ONE MANY YEARS AGO, AROUND CHRISTMAS TIME, I THOUGHT TO MYSELF “THAT DOESN’T QUITE MAKE SENSE”. I UNDERSTOOD THE CHRISTMAS SACRED BIT BUT THE CHRIST MASSACRED PART, I THOUGHT IT REFERRED MORE TO JESUS BEING CRUCIFIED ON THE CROSS, WHICH OF COURSE IS AROUND EASTER TIME.

I

t was only recently that I remembered the drawing and started to think about it again. Then the penny dropped. Call me slow or something equally as sad, but now I believe it refers more to the way that Jesus, or Christ, has been shoved well into the background when it comes to Christmas celebrations. The fact is however, Christmas is first and foremost about the birth of Jesus Christ, but today, you’d hardly know it.

For those who call themselves Christians, Christmas is a very sacred time and rightly so.

We all have some understanding of the story – Jesus was born at Christmas in very humble circumstances, he lived on Earth until he was about 30 before he was wrongly accused of crimes he didn’t commit and then was put to death on a cross suffering unimaginable pain. A few days later, history shows he rose from the

20

DECEMBER 22, 2016–JANUARY 18, 2017

dead and after being seen by a considerable number of witnesses, he descended into Heaven to be with his father, “God” no less.

While on Earth, Jesus claimed to be the Son of God and it’s now well documented in the Bible why he came. The famous Bible verse from the Book of John sums up the reason - “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16.

That all happened around 2000 years ago, and despite the truly miraculous event of someone rising from the dead, and despite all the historical evidence, and despite the testimonies of zillions of people around the world who now claim to “believe in Jesus”, most people still choose to live as though the whole event, the Biblical warnings and so on, simply don’t matter.

One result of this now sees Christ missing or

“massacred” at Christmas in most homes, rather than having Him at the centre of Christmas and regarding Him as sacred.

Speaking for myself, I believe in Jesus, I follow Him, I regard Him as the King of my life and there’s been enough happen in my life to convince me

that “He’s” real and been there for me when I most needed it.

This Christmas, let me encourage you personally, to think about where you should draw the line in your life, think about that John 3:16 verse in the Bible and if you feel inclined, get along to a Church service

on Christmas Day to hear and consider what is said.

If you’re not sure which Church to go to, there are several advertising Christmas services in this issue of OC Life, you might like to go along to one of these.

Merry Christmas everyone!

“On behalf of RMH, I’d like to congratulate you Sarah, you are a very worthy recipient of the $5000, I hope it will launch you forward, into your tertiary education, I know that you have had a very tough time in recent years with your health, and I hope that the years ahead, are rewarding and successful.”

Sarah added, “Molong Central School were an amazing part of my schooling life, they helped so much, and did so much for me, with the Ronald McDonald Learning Programme, they were actually able to get a teacher from the school to tutor me, it really helped so much, without it I wouldn’t have learnt half of the things I did for the HSC, thankyou Mrs Barrett, your door was always open.”

Willow’s Wish Tree Last week, the senior pre-school room at Willows had invited the Salvation Army to provide the community with handmade creations that their children had worked incredibly hard on.

Charles Sturt University Prac Student Bec Kennedy said, “We started reading The Giving Tree, we have been teaching the children about Christmas and giving back to the community by supplying the children with a ‘wish tree’.”

“We spoke to them about what Christmas means to them, and they came up with the idea of giving. They have made bracelets, decorated playdoh in jars and made bath salts.

The children asked if they could go and buy

dollies, all those things that little boys and girls love, they were very adamant that they wanted the older people to be involved as well, mums, dads and grandparents.”

The donations and presents were given to Salvation Army on the day.

“We have one child, Amity, every day we make something for the wishing tree she is there, she doesn’t go and play with something else, she’s always making things for the tree, it’s fantastic.”

Amity told OC Life, “I have been hanging decorations and made presents, for those who don’t get Christmas.”

Well done Willows Senior Pre-school room!

THE CANOBOLAS RURAL TECHNOLOGY HIGH SCHOOL

2016 has been a fantastic year for The Canobolas Rural Technology High School. Our flagship programs have been an outstanding success and the huge beneficiaries have been our students. A huge thank you must go to all our community partners who have supported our staff and students to enrich their education and assist in developing their skills for life beyond school. We would like to extend a very big thankyou to Orange City Life for supporting our school and providing us with the opportunity to promote and publicise our achievements in Big Picture, CHPA, STEM and Clontarf.

TCRTHS School Executive Team.

BIG PICTURE 2017 has been a very exhausting yet at the same time hugely rewarding year for us all.

Working with teenagers who highlight independence, self-motivation and have

an absolute passion for learning has been an absolute delight. Thank you Sally Foundation, Canobolas and the Orange community for allowing us to hop on board this Big Picture roller coaster and with the support of parents, guardians, carers and mentors in the community embark on this innovative new Big Picture Education journey. We would never have thought that

such a unique bunch of teenagers, under the guidance of the Big Picture real world learning philosophy could inspire us to love our profession even more than we already do. Thank you and Merry Xmas to all. See you in 2017.

Lou Rose & Jess Penberthy Teachers Big Picture Academy.

CROSSPURPOSES

Songs at Christmas

One thing my family enjoys about Christmas is the music. What is your favourite Christmas song?

I remember many with fondness from my youth and so it is hard to pick a favourite. But I would probably choose ‘Joy to the World’ by Isaac Watts.

I love the opening line that you can sing with gusto. I also like the build up of the refrain at the end of each verse. The

WITH MICHAEL KEMP words are awesome too.

The song cheers (and indeed all ‘heaven and nature sing’) that Jesus, who is God and lord, has come. The emotion of the song picks up how amazing this is. The later verses (which you may know as well) help explain why this really is ‘joy to the world’.

Verse 3 talks about how our sins (which regrettably are very apparent at some family gatherings at Christmas) have been dealt with by Jesus. The curse of sin is replaced by ‘blessings flow’. I think the last line rightfully calls this ‘wonders of his love.’

Keep an ear out for this song (or one of the other great songs) and perhaps you can ‘repeat the sounding joy’?

STEM What a huge launch year it has been for STEM at Canobolas! Every student in Years 7 and 8 have worked to develop their 21st Century Learning skills in our custom STEM learning space. Students have coded an experiment sent to the International Space

Station. Our experience and expertise in STEM education has been in such high demand, we’ve shared our knowledge with educators from the New South Wales Department of Education, the University of Wollongong and the University of Sydney just to name a few. Our success has been recognised with state excellence awards for our STEM program and STEM Head Teacher, along with a Premier’s Scholarship to study STEM

and project based learning in the United States. We’d like to thank everyone that has worked with Canobolas STEM this year and have contributed to these successes, including the Charles Sturt University School of Engineering, Bletchington and Orange East Public Schools and Regional Development Australia Central West.

CLONTARF Our first year as the Canobolas Clontarf Academy has been a very successful introduction. We are now part of a 75 Academy program and currently part of close to 7,000 Clontarf boys. We are growing at a great rate and QLD is the new frontier for us. We are very fortunate and proud to be part of the Canobolas program. As far as NSW is concerned we are close to capacity with our academies.

We have had 73 boys involved with our program throughout 2016 and some have left to move town or seek employment. We finish the year with 69 boys.

Both Ben Benton and I have had an enjoyable first year getting to know the boys and experiencing with them some great activities ranging from: Camping at Mt Canobolas and Ophir, several trips to Sydney working with our partners (NRL, Google, QUBE, Australian cricket, FOX Sports, just to name a few).

Our senior boys enjoyed a week in Alice Springs and ULURU taking in the sights and culture, overnight trip to Condobolin at a Didgeridoo workshop and many trips away to various places playing Rugby League against the many Clontarf Academies in the area. Ben and I would like to thank the school and staff for all their support, and look forward to 2017 to make a difference in the boy’s lives to help them become great role models, get through year 12 and into full time employment, becoming productive members in society.

PARKES ELVIS FESTIVAL Parkes Elvis Festival is held each January in Parkes in Central New South Wales. This highly popular event started with some passionate Elvis fans in Parkes: one local changed his name to Elvis by deed poll and another local couple operated ‘Gracelands Restaurant’ for many years. The Festival was conceived by these and other passionate community members who recognised the potential for a fun event. January was identified as the perfect time to stage the event, coinciding with Elvis’s birthday

on January 8. The first festival was held in January 1993, attended by only a few hundred people. 9,500 attended the Festival in 2009, and in 2015 more than 20,000 visitors attended this major event. This year’s festival will run from 11-15 January 2017.

Andrew Barton (Banjo) Paterson is believed to have been born at ‘Narrambla’, Orange on 17 February 1864. An Australian legend, he lived in Yeoval until he was about 7. The festival highlights not only Banjo Paterson but is an opportunity to celebrate all Australian poetry and poets in general.

The festival will take place from 16-26 February.

GNOO BLAS CLASSIC CAR SHOW The Gnoo Blas Classic Car Club Inc is keeping alive the history of the old Gnoo Blas Road racing circuit at Orange in central NSW. The old circuit is an important part of motor sport history, built as a community project in 1953 by Orange City Council and Canobolas Shire Council. Most of Australia’s best drivers competed there. Jack Brabham started his road racing career at Gnoo Blas and held the lap record of more than 102mph up to the last meeting in 1961. Other drivers who raced on Gnoo Blas included Bob Jane (Maserati), Stan Jones (Maybach) and many more. Guests for the 2017 show include Phil Brock, who often teamed with his late brother Peter racing Holdens, with a best result of third outright in a Torana L34 in the Hardie Ferodo at Bathurst in 1976.

Spencer Martin, one of Australia’s champion openwheel racers in the 1960s will also be in attendance.

The 2017 Gnoo Blas Classic Car show will run on 18 & 19 February.

More details of these events and many more to come in next year’s Orange City Life!

What would you like to do with your surf rescue, first aid, water safety and resus skills in the future?

I just like the fact that I can be sure of myself at the beach, and around waterways. I can rescue someone in trouble and I can also teach other people what to look for when they are at the beach. It also looks good on your resume to have these skills, it means I've trained hard and applied myself to learn something that can save people's lives.

What's your favourite waterway/beach?

My favourite beach is probably Dee Why, as I spend a lot of time patrolling there.

We can't quite believe Sunday was our last session for 2016 and what a beautiful day it was at Lake Canobolas. The Nemes and Crabs had fun practicing their sand skills with tunnel ball at the volleyball court while the older Stingrays and Dolphins ran over the lake wall for fitness and went through their board rescue routines at the beach side.

**

Charlie "Full-steam" Fossilo was a force to be reckoned with in the water and a late season comeback from Jade "Moneybags" McLean saw her return to form in the run.

**

We also enjoyed a visit from a rather overdressed man- Santa Claus himself! Santa took some time out of his busy week to stop by and talk to the nippers, who all assured him they'd been well behaved this year and were ready for a nice surprise on Christmas Day. There were many requests for robots, aeroplanes, swimming pools and even a quad bike, and Santa didn't disappoint- he ran a few flag races and then handed out some treats before he had to get on his way back to the North Pole.

**

Ethan Coyte instructed the Stingrays in water rescues - he's a SRC and Bronze Medallion accredited nipper who we are featuring in this week's column.

How long have you been an Orange Bush Nipper?

I have been an Orange Bush Nipper for 5 years.

What do people say when you tell them you're a bush nipper?

People don't quite believe me, they find it hard to imagine I have Surf Rescue qualifications when I don't live anywhere near the beach. I patrol once a month during the season (Oct- Easter) and it's quite a big commitment from home at Millthorpe, and means I don't play a summer sport.

Nippers at the Lake

Why do you think it's important for kids who live in the country to learn water safety skills?

It's a great excuse to go to the beach! I've had to use these skills myself in situations where people haven't known the dangers at the beach. I feel pretty proud that I have the knowledge and skills to patrol any beach in NSW. Without Orange Bush Nippers I would never have learnt these skills and it's something different but so important.

Weekend Roundup

Wanderers set City 220 for their run chase. Bowlers

Attention Carnivores

The weather for the last round before Christmas was causing havoc with player motivation. The washout of the Royal Hotel Cup match vs Centrals allowed some players to enjoy their Friday night at the Parky just that little bit more than they perhaps should have, and with the weather the way it was, the thought of not playing was further encouraging for a Christmas tipple. Well the sun shone bright on Saturday morning and 2nd and 3rd grade both got moved to synthetic grounds.

There were many sore heads and some did it tough on the field.

The 2nds met Centrals at Anzac Park and batting first amassed 8-262 (264 off the bowling – let’s get it right fella’s…) with Joe Kay (66) Patty Giuffre (60) and Adam Cowden (63). There was obviously a game plan to hit plenty of sixes as the team hit 12 maximums with Cowdo dumping 5 on his own. With ball in hand, the Warriors went to work to get a great result before the Christmas break and that they did. Keeping Centrals to 167 from their 40 overs was a fine way to end this half of the season. Matt Hogan’s 3-22, Jack Coote 2-22 and standout MoM Cowdo took 2-36. Well done boys. The Golden Warrior understands that after the match, both sides sat together over a few frosty bevvies to dissect the days’ play. This pleases the Golden one greatly, it’s great to see this fine old tradition returning.

3rds went to Brabham 3 for their match against the Wanderers and Captain Beasley, who despite a cool sounding name is NOT a pirate, won the toss and sent the opposition in for a bat as you do on synthetic wickets with only nine fielders. After their 40 overs

By now you’re no doubt aware that Anthony Minichiello, he of former Australia, NSW, Roosters and Golden Boot fame, is bringing his ‘Minifit’ clinic to Orange.

With thanks to former OCL favo Chris Bennetts, ‘Mini’ now has a connection to Orange and as such, decided to bring the camp out this way.

MINIFIT is the brainchild of retired rugby league legend Anthony ‘Mini’ Minichiello, who is passionate about improving the health and wellbeing of children.

Studies have proven that exercise has a profound effect on cognitive abilities and mental health.

The MINIFIT goal is to educate children on the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle.

MINIFIT offers a range of programs for children aged 5-12 and provides them with a fun-filled day, with various games and activities tailored to incorporate important health and fitness lessons for kids that promote the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle.

z I was born on December 19, 1974, in Launceston, Tasmania, and introduced to cricket by my uncle and former test bowler Greg Campbell. z After Grade 10, I left school to focus on cricket full time, spending the next few years at the Australian Institute of Sport’s Cricket Academy. z At the Under-19 Championships, I scored 350 runs in five matches for Tasmania. z I earned a spot in the national team in 1995 for the One Day series in New Zealand. Later that year I made my test debut against Sri Lanka. z In 2002 I was named captain of Australia’s one-day international side. Two years later I was also made test captain when Steve Waugh retired. z I was named ICC Cricketer of the Year twice and awarded the Allan Border Medal four times. My wife Rianna and I live with our two daughters and son in Melbourne.

THE THUMBS

Thumbs up to the kind lady at the Optus shop who recently gave me her unwanted phone recharge voucher. Thank you so much and I will pay it forward.

Thumbs up to the red mower that mows the paths around Hinton Reserve, makes for a safe walk when walking my dog.

A big thumbs up to our waiter ‘Sean’ at Eighteen 70 last week, your helpful knowledge of the menu and wines was greatly appreciated. A big thank you and we hope to see you next time we pass through your town.

Thumbs up to Patty my neighbour, happy Christmas from Roxy and Suzy!

Thumbs up to CentaCare for your support and care.

El’s, who is such a delight and easy to talk to, your courses and information are so beneficial to me. Thank you!

Thumbs down to the misery guts who crept into my lounge room while my back was turned and stole my handbag. Sorry there was no money as I had just paid my rent, a few bills and bought some groceries out of my pension.

Damned nuisance to lose that eight year old bag, wallet, purse, driver’s licence, Medicare card and all my prescriptions. What are you going to do with my concession stamps? Send Christmas cards to your mates? Is the lipstick your colour?

to keep you safe and don’t deserve to be disrespected or abused.

Thumbs down to the Orange City Council, Christmas time again and still no male or female toilets in Robertson Park or decent male or female toilets around town.

Thumbs down to Orange City Council for removing all of the pine trees and bushes around the Lake Canobolas Walking track.

Thumbs up to Cody at IGA great service and always smiling, we need more like you!

Thumbs down to people who are rude to, or do not listen to lifeguards at the pool. The lifeguards are there

Thumbs up to all the staff at the Orange Aquatic Centre, for doing an awesome job in regularly dealing with rude and often abusive people.

Thumbs up to Lisa from the Orange Police Station for her help and for making things so much easier after a motor vehicle accident in Spring Hill on 25th October 2016.

Thumbs up to Bridgette from O fficeworks for her outstanding customer service!

Thumbs down to the people who mistreat property that is not theirs just like the DVDs at the Video Ezy kiosks. If you are going to mistreat those DVDs, then buy

your own.

Thumbs up to the lady who nailed Stedo with a puddle whilst driving past in the rain. Ed’s note – HEY! A massive thumbs up to Beaurepairs Orange for lending some tools and helping my son fix his bike on the way to school, it made his day!

Great to see there is still good people around!

Thumbs up to Leanne at Big W Cosmetics department for her great service!

she help me find the perfect fragrance for my daughter’s birthday, she also assisted me in choosing Christmas presents for all my grandchildren a week later!

Thank you to Kate, there should be more customer service people like her. I was very impressed to receive such a high level of service in this day and age.

Thumbs up to Orange Myer Store Manager Phillip Murray for raising funds for Anson Street School!

Thumbs down to the Cabonne Shire regarding the Lawn Cemetery, the gate way to the East has been going on for 9 years. No concern for the graves that are being driven on. Both funeral directors are also concerned about this problem. Guess who.

Thumbs up to Hayley from Hillside Harvest, she has worked tirelessly overseeing the fantastic renovation and running the store without a single day off in a ridiculously long time!

Despite this, she is always cheerful and has a constant smile on her face.

I would like to give a thumbs up to Kate at Myer in the perfume department. Not only did

A big thumbs up to Jackson from House, he was extremely helpful recently and made my

shopping experience much more pleasurable. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Thumbs down to those who use the net to abuse, threaten or denigrate others while hiding their identity behind some dumb fake name. If you wouldn’t say it in a social setting then don’t say it at all. Same goes with posting garbage on social media, do your research first, see if your vile viewpoint is justified before making another’s life hell.

Makes me wonder what goes on in some people’s heads.

Thumbs up to my cousin Graham for finally starting to find himself, for inspiring me with his great attitude and also for giving me hope that we all have the potential to change for the better. Yes, you’ve done it hard, yes you’ve done things that you’re not proud of, but now you’re doing it right.

Your dad would be stoked.
