What a Lake!
The community of Jordan Springs were treated to an exciting day last month, when Lend Lease hosted the Land Lovers Festival. The special event marked the opening of the new lake in the area. The festivities took place on Lakeside Parade and involved lots of fun and games for the whole family. There was plenty to see and do with stalls, fitness demonstrations, lakeside activities and entertainment. Mix 106.5 was on hand with DJ Lars Peterson. The radio station organised the family treasure hunt, which was the highlight of the day. Local resident Darian Wright was lucky to take home the massive $5000 cash prize. The pirate ship playground was transformed into Neverland with a visit from Tinkerbell, Peter Pan and the pirates. Dorothy the Dinosaur and Captain Feathersword also dropped by.

From the Editor What a month it has been. As I sit here compiling your latest community news, I can’t help but feel overwhelmingly proud of the amazing show of community spirit in recent weeks. Looking back, the situation was surreal but the devastation left behind, very real. Like many of you, I too, know a number of people who suffered the loss of property and all possessions in the devastation of Thursday 17th October. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those that have suffered loss, and to all the incredibly amazing firefighters and volunteers who continue to fight for us every day. They say it’s going to be one of the worst summers in history for fires – if you haven’t already done so, make an action plan NOW! On a lighter note, and to take your mind off the fires, we have a spectacular Pre- Christmas lift-out, full of various discounts and offers, to get you into the yuletide spirit! A great opportunity for you to get a head start on your Christmas shopping! Not to mention the fantastic highlights we captured at the recent Lake Launch at Jordan Springs in October! If you missed the festivities on the day, check out our photo collage on page 7. Next month we have lots in store for you with the upcoming launch of the Jordan Springs Shopping Centre! You won’t want to miss it! Available from 7th December. Never get tired of doing little things for others; sometimes those little things occupy the biggest part of their hearts. Be prepared and stay safe!

‘Excites and Delights’ Coming to Jordan Springs The Touched by Olivia Foundation, in conjunction with Penrith City Council, are proud to announce the construction of Livvi’s Place Penrith in Jordan Springs. The new project is due to be completed in early 2014. The Touched by Olivia Foundation is a national charity that works with communities, corporations and all levels of government to create special places that include everyone, regardless of their age or abilities. These special places include Livvi’s Place. The inclusive playspaces cater for the needs of people with disabilities. “Our playspaces are built to excite and delight everyone, from babies up to the great grandparents. We reckon a Livvi's Place is an open invitation for the entire community and surrounding areas to get together and catch up, make new friends and experience play in an equitable environment“, said the Foundation’s Rebecca Ho. Residents are invited to the ‘Butterfly BBQ’ on November 17 from 11am to 3pm in Jordan Springs (Corner Lakeside Parade and Jordan Springs Boulevard), organised by the Touched by Olivia Foundation. There will be a BBQ lunch, face painting, an ice cream station and the opportunity for people to discuss what they would like to see at the new Livvi’s Place. “On the day, we will be getting the community to make some awesome art that will get installed into the playspace. If you can't make it, we're asking for input in the online survey. Businesses or groups can also sponsor the playspace”, explained Rebecca. For further information, visit their website www.touchedbyolivia.com.au or their Facebook page at facebook.com/groups/livvisplacepenrith.

El Niño in force! Vigilance Required over the Hot Dry Summer! The entire country is still reeling from the shock of the recent fires that swept devastation over much of the state. Our thoughts and prayers go out to every person and animal affected by the fires. Tragedies like this bring together a strong community spirit, as collectively we take stock and rebuild our lives, and regain a sense of normality. A hot, dry summer was predicted, but it came as a shock to many when a fire sparked, and was driven down the mountains at lightning speed and with hurricane force, leaving a trail of destruction on Thursday 17th October. More of the dangerous weather conditions are to come. Australia is expected to experience hotter and drier conditions this spring and summer as a weak El Niño pattern develops across the Pacific Ocean. This is in stark contrast to the past two years, where La Niña conditions dominated, contributing to heavy rainfall and cooler temperatures across much of the country. And while we may have enjoyed it at the time, this has caused increased vegetation growth, which is now drying in the hot winds to become fuel for further bushfires.

MONEY MATTER$ With Alex McKenzie – Future Financial Services Ph: 0414 330 651 E: info@futurefinancialservices.com.au
Complacency is the Enemy! One thing that is apparent to me on a daily basis is that most people rarely review their financial products and often have inappropriate mortgages, insurance and Superannuation policies simply because, once in place they never review the product again. Financial planners should drive this process, and to some extent they do encourage people to review their financial products, but often do not chase this as hard as possible. Therefore it is necessary for us to ensure our product is still appropriate for use. A number of factors result in our financial products becoming out-dated. The first and most obvious, our circumstances change, of course if our circumstances change the product we have is designed to suit our previous situation, and may no longer be relevant. Therefore when your situation changes it is necessary to review your insurance, superannuation and mortgage. Products improve over time, Superannuation funds and insurance policies that were once considered quality, will eventually be surpassed by more modern products, these products are often cheaper as well as offering superior features. Much in the same way as a flat screen TV from the early 2000’s is now considered poor quality and expensive. Further to this introductory rates and alike can make some mortgages and insurance policies initially very attractive, but less so down the track. This makes reviewing doubly important, once the introductory rates expire, the existing policy is probably too expensive, further to this there is likely to be a new introductory offer that can be used to your advantage. Virtually every client I see that has not reviewed either their insurance, Superannuation or mortgage in the previous 2 years is usually in the wrong product. In most cases they are paying more in fees, interest payments or insurance premiums than they should be, and furthermore almost always have inferior features. The best news is though, under almost all circumstances there is no cost to review these products, a financial advisor, bank or mortgage broker will almost always happily review these for you as it is likely to result in more revenue for them and they will not be able to make changes unless you are better off, there is literally only an upside for you, yet most of us do not regularly review our situation. It is very sound advice to review your Insurance, Mortgage and Superannuation annually. If you have not reviewed your financial products recently please contact Future Financial Service on 4727 6588 or 0414 330 651 for our assistance.
NOTE: You may recall that last month’s sibling conflict article was to be continued this month. Due to problems arising from the bushfires, the second part of the sibling conflict article will now be in the December issue, so keep an eye out next month. Apologies. In her 1995 Boyer Lecture titled “A Truly Civil Society”, Dr Eva Cox, an Australian sociologist and social commentator, said that our homes can be the most toxic places for our children. She said that it was an indictment on our society that children are sometimes safer with kind strangers in early childhood services and schools than they are with family. One of the ways of creating a safe emotional environment is to make your home a “be kind zone”. In this zone, no-one, including the adults, call each other names or tease each other. No put-downs are allowed. This has worked very well at my place with three boys. They rarely call each other names or tease each other, but if it happens they say “that’s a put-down and that’s not allowed”. It has also made them more assertive and resilient outside the home. They don’t accept put-downs or teasing from other people. My boys were watching the movie “Parental Guidance” during the recent school holidays. They told me that in one scene a little boy said “that’s a put-down, you owe me three put-ups” to which his sibling replied “I like your shirt, I like your shoes, I like your hair”. My boys loved this. They changed “put-ups” to “pull-ups” and made it a rule that the pull-ups had to be genuine, related to the skills and personal attributes of the person. We all make mistakes in relationships, and sometimes our tempers or frustrations get the better of us and we say things that are less than kind. When there is a rupture in the relationship, it’s important that we focus on repairing the relationship. This is done in many different ways, and for children put-ups or pull-ups is a good way of repairing the relationship and re-establishing an emotionally safe environment.
SECURING YOUR WORLD With Brett McVea – National Locksmiths Ph: 1300 897 170 E: info@nationallocksmiths.com.au There was a bit of controversy in the Locksmith industry over the last couple of weeks, when a Television show decided to check if Locksmiths were doing the ethical and honest thing while attending to a “Lockout”. I’ll be the first to admit that there are some Cowboys in the industry that will cut corners, but there are also a lot of Locksmiths that do things correctly. For peace of mind when requiring a Locksmith service, here are some things that you should check before allowing them to carry out any work; 1. Do they carry a current 2BC Security Licence? 2. Are they Fully Insured? 3. Are they in a sign written van and in a Locksmith uniform? 4. Before the Locksmith carries out a “Lockout” service, have they asked you for your identification to prove that you live there? 133 Russell St, Emu Plains Like any trade, the Locksmith industry does have a Governing body called the “Master Locksmith Association of Australia”. Locksmiths that are Members of the MLAA have gone thru extensive training and have to complete a theory and practical test to prove that they are of the highest level in the Locksmith industry. To check if the Locksmith you have called is part of the MLAA, you can check via their website http://www.masterlocksmiths.com.au/ Another tip is to always get any Security product (Deadlocks, Window Locks,Repairs Safes etc) supplied and installed by a Locksmith • Puncture only. They are trained to provide the correct product for your • Child Restraint Fitting application and install these correctly and carry the Licenses to• do so. Female & Family Friendly

Santa Claus was a real Saint. He lived in Myra in the 300s. Myra is in what’s now Turkey. The German name for Saint Nicholas is Sankt Niklaus.

Llandilo Public School Principal: Bruno Zuliani Weather conditions over the last few weeks have caused disruption to our usual recess and lunchtime routines. Smoke and heat have contributed to significant time being spent indoors. Thankfully students and staff have coped brilliantly. The devastating results of fires have impacted many friends and family of our school community and our thoughts go out to those who are suffering and recovering. Through a fundraising mufti (non uniform day) we were able to raise $400 which was forwarded to the victim’s fire appeal initiative. We are very fortunate at Llandilo Public School to have a very active Rural Fire Brigade Service opposite our site which makes us all feel very safe indeed. Two very special events occur during the month of November at our school. The Stage 3 Mini Fete and the overnight Zoo Snooze excursion for our Stage 2 students. New enrolments for 2014 are now being taken, come along and join our friendly learning community.

Put The Spotlight On An Outstanding Australian If you admire someone for making a difference to the Penrith community, then nominate them for a 2014 Australia Day Award. Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler OAM said Penrith City Council’s annual Australia Day Awards are the perfect occasion to honour the everyday heroes whose outstanding contributions might otherwise go unrecognised. “These awards allow Council to hold up Penrith residents as model Australians and highlight their stories and efforts to help others,” he said. To receive this prestigious honour winners should demonstrate excellence in their field and be considered inspirational role models for the community. The awards will highlight excellence across categories including citizen of the year, young citizen of the year, sportsperson of the year and community services. One nomination is all it takes for your hero to be in contention. Visit penrithcity.nsw.gov.au/ausday and send us your nomination before 12 November 2013.

LOOKING GOOD & FEELING GREAT
Type of Breakfast
Even though eating breakfast has long been linked to good health and a nutritious diet, skipping it may seem like an easy way to cut kilojoules when trying to lose weight. A growing body of research, however, indicates that eating breakfast is a successful strategy for lasting weight loss. Breakfast Skipping and Obesity Breakfast eaters tend to weigh less than breakfast skippers. Some studies have found that those who skip breakfast end up eating more kilojoules through the course of the day compared to those who don’t - and weight gain is the result. This may be due to increased feelings of hunger which can lead to overeating, particularly higher-fat foods later in the day. Therefore, eating breakfast may help to control appetite and lower the chances of overeating throughout the day.
The type of breakfast and its influence on weight management is an active area of research. Some studies have shown that eating ready-to-eat cereal is linked to a lower body mass index (BMI) and better diet quality than eating other breakfast foods. However, a 2005 study found that participants who consumed a high protein breakfast had enhanced feelings of eating satisfaction, fullness and lower food intake compared with those eating a low-protein breakfast. More research is needed to determine the impact of breakfast type on weight loss. The Bottom Line Making breakfast part of a daily routine is a key strategy to use as part of a lifestyle management approach for long-term, sustainable weight loss.

Eating Breakfast and Maintaining Weight Loss Eating breakfast may also help with keeping weight off for the long term. Participants from the National Weight Control Registry (NWCR), a database of people who have lost at least 13 kilos and kept if off for one year or more, reported eating breakfast on a regular basis as one of their key strategies for maintaining weight loss. Of the 2,959 participants surveyed from the NWCR, 78% had breakfast 7 days a week and only 4% said that they never ate breakfast. The researchers suggested that eating breakfast may help to reduce hunger later in the day as well as provide key nutrients that may enhance physical activity, another key strategy for maintaining weight loss.

RSPCA NSW and Petbarn Call For Help For Animals Affected By Bush Fires The Petbarn Foundation has set up a NSW Bush Fire Appeal for pets and wildlife in need. At the time of going to print, fires were still blazing across New South Wales. Petbarn has thrown its support behind RSPCA NSW and has launched a NSW Bush Fire Appeal through its charity arm, The Petbarn Foundation, to help animals affected by the bush fires. Petbarn and RSPCA NSW are calling out to the community get behind the appeal and help raise funds for animals affected by bush fires. To kick-start the appeal, The Petbarn Foundation has donated $10,000, which will go directly to RSPCA NSW. Australians can now make a donation to the NSW Bush Fire Appeal in Petbarn stores across the country or at http://www.petbarn.com.au/bushfire-appeal with 100% of funds collected by The Petbarn Foundation being donated directly to RSPCA NSW. “The bush fires have been devastating for people across the state with more than 100 fires reported, many people losing their homes and fears of lives being lost. At this time, many animals have also been affected. We want to offer support to those people who have pets that have been caught in the disaster, as well the many animals and wildlife that have been lost in the fires,” said Paul Wilson, Director of The Petbarn Foundation.
Thursdays
RSPCA NSW is part of the NSW’s Government’s emergency response team. Currently, RSPCA Inspectors are working across the state to evacuate pets and livestock and transporting sick and injured animals to shelters and vet clinics where they will receive immediate attention. The RSPCA Call Centre is also at capacity fielding calls from owners in desperate need of assistance and generous supporters offering help. “Our Inspectors are working tirelessly to ensure the safety and security of companion animals, livestock and wildlife impacted by bushfires across the state,” said Steve Coleman, CEO of RSPCA NSW. “We are unbelievably grateful for the Petbarn Foundation’s generous offer of support — and support from the community — during this particularly challenging time,” he said. The RSPCA’s job won’t stop when the fires are under control. The organisation has an ongoing commitment to all the wildlife, pets and livestock that need prolonged medical attention and care. After the fires have stopped, the Inspectors will go back into the field to look for survivors and assist owners with treatment, food and shelter for their misplaced animals. r Vince Pollaers of Petbarn with RSPCANSW CEO Steve Coleman and four-legged friends
Caring for our Wildlife – Training Course
Beware of Magpies
With the change of season residents are urged to beware of magpies nesting in their midst. Penrith councillor Mark Davies said magpies nest at this time of year, changing their normal placid behaviour. “Spring is a great time to enjoy some of the fantastic outdoor recreational facilities in our City and soak up our beautiful natural environment. It’s also when birds become more active in the warmer weather so take care in green spaces such as parks, reserves or backyards,” Cr Davies said. “Spring is when nesting magpies are protective of their young and tend to swoop on people walking underneath. “This can be dangerous for small children so be sure to keep an eye on them when out and about. “By keeping out of wildlife’s way and leaving them be they’ll generally do the same for us,” he said. If a resident feels that a magpie is a menace they can contact the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service on 1300 361 967 or Council on 4732 7777. You can also refer to the Magpies page on the NSW Evironment and Heritage webpage: environment. n sWALLACIA w . g o v . a u / a HOTEL nimals/ 1590 Mulgoa Rd, Wallacia TheAustralianMagpie.htm (02) 4773 8888
