 SPRING IS HERE!  Free Water Safety DVD As we approach the warmer months Federal Member for Lindsay, David Bradbury, has joined with Laurie Lawrence in promoting the important Kids Alive Do the Five water safety message.

Mr Bradbury has organised with Laurie Lawrence for local families to be provided with a free Living with Water DVD. “Summer isn’t too far away, so now is the perfect time to teach our children the important Kids Alive do the

Five water safety message to reduce the risk of preschool downing.”

Drowning is the biggest cause of accidental death in children under five in Australia. On average one child in Australia drowns each week.

Laurie Lawrence said showing your children the water safety DVD is just one small way everyone can do their bit to reduce drowning in Australia.

“Owning a swimming pool is a big responsibility. Pool owners must ensure that their pool is fenced and

complies with local government legislation” said Mr Lawrence.

“Every local parent should grab a copy of the DVD from David Bradbury’s office and make sure their children are doing the five.”

Laurie Lawrence’s Kids Alive Do the Five are: 1.Fence the pool 2.Shut the gate 3.Teach your kids to swim – it’s great 4.Supervise – watch your mate, and 5.Learn how to resuscitate Copies of the DVD can be obtained by calling David Bradbury’s Office on (02) 4732 1801 or emailing david.bradbury@aph.gov.au

Coochie Takes The Hard Work Out Of Lawns Coochie HydroGreen Lawn Care Services offers a lawn care program that aims to keep lawns green and healthy all year round. We treat all types of lawns but we do not mow lawns.

A lawn needs attention on a regular basis to keep it strong, healthy and green. It requires regular nutrition, disease, weed and lawn pest control at different stages throughout the seasonal year. With our regular scheduled visits, six times a year, we take the hassle out of looking after your lawn. You no longer need to purchase, store and spend time applying complicated products - just leave it to Coochie. By applying the correct balance of nutrients through liquid fertilising, organic soil conditioning, wetting agents, and safe lawn pest and weed control, Coochie can ensure your lawn is kept green and healthy. Or, you may prefer just a ‘one-off’ visit, which consists of a fertiliser and weed treatment only.

Ongoing follow-ups and technical advice is part of our service. Water saving benefits through the use of soil wetting agents ensures that lawns do not require as much water to stay healthy. The Coochie service is also ideal for businesses, including real estates, landscapers, prop-

erty developers, motels, councils and childcare centres, to name a few.

If you are interested in knowing more about our services and how we may be able to help you care for your lawn, please feel free to contact your local Coochie Owner Manager – Fabian Gemin on 0401701322 for a free 10-point lawn inspection and advice, or Freecall 1800 245 955.

Holy Family News Congratulations to the students who represented at both our Zone and Diocesan Athletics Carnivals in recent weeks. 34 students from Holy Family attended the Zone Athletics Carnival at Blacktown Olympic Park.

Although the weather the day before was cold, rainy and miserable, Thursday was bathed in bright warm sunshine!

Our students competed in their events with great enthusiasm and displayed great sportsmanship, regardless of the end results. We had plenty of cheering from students as well as the wonderful parents and family members who attended to support Holy Family students.

The day ended extremely successfully for Holy Family, with 13 students continuing on to the Diocesan Carnival to represent Holy Family as a part of the Nepean Zone team, to be held at the same venue this Friday.

In addition to these successes, Luke Gleeson set a new Nepean Zone record for the 11 years Boys Discuss and Rhys Nelson was awarded Junior Boys Runner-Up. Following the Zone carnival Cameron Gill, Luke Gleeson, Ethan Harris, Brooke Hoban, Jay Kirk, Marcus Massignani, Keeley McCahon, Rhys Nelson, Rosemarie Saliba, Michael Taylor, Jarrod Weir, Zachary Marincic and Kurtis McCall represented Holy Family School at the Diocesan Athletics carnival. Their achievements were many with the Cameron, Luke, Ethan and Jarrod all qualifying for the next level of competition, the MacKillop Team trials. Our best wishes to these four boys as they compete for higher

honours.

Our bi-annual Country Fair is being held on Saturday 17th September in the school grounds. There will be lots of rides, stalls, activities, entertainment including wood chopping and things to see and do to enjoy as well as an Art show with pieces from well known artists and our own student’s artwork featured.

We warmly invite all members of our local communities to come along and join in the fun. We hope to see you there.

Jesus: Tag Above All Tags On Monday morning at 7:30am I received a text from my daughter, ‘Dad, someone has graffittied the All Saints Silverdale Church’. Sure, enough, we turn up at the little church building, and great black spray painted tags are all over it. The bus stop and the give way sign were also all vandalised.

It’s a shame the vandals went to the All Saints Silverdale on Sunday night to graffiti it. If they came to St Thomas’ Mulgoa at 6:45pm instead, we would have given them a warm welcome, they could have sung Jesus’ praise with us, read about how Jesus gave his life for our sins, and have learned what true love means. The offer remains. Because ‘God showed his love for us in this. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us’ (Romans 5:8). But this time, leave the spray can

at home! Anyway, there is a tag more important than yours or mine. It’s ICHTHUS in the shape of a fish, which means ‘Jesus Christ, God’s Son, Saviour’. This was an ancient Christian symbol.

Matt Olliffe, Minister, Anglican Parish of Mulgoa www.anglicanparishmulgoa.com.au Sunday services: Mulgoa 8.30am, 6.45pm, Warragamba 10.30am.

Also Wednesday services.

If anyone has information about the graffiti attack on the All Saints church, please ring St Mary’s Police Station on 9677 7499 .

SMART INVESTORS BUYING ART

While collectors appear to be turning their backs on art galleries– forcing the closure of many a specialist Fine art gallery and Aboriginal art gallery – industry experts fear that much of the cause lies in what consumers see as the overly inflated prices charged for such works by the primary market.

Some are turning to the auction or secondary market for satisfaction where they believe quality fine art works can be purchased for better value.

In a bid to boost interest and develop the investment market in acquiring fine art, some of Australia’s most influential art industry personalities have joined forces to bring together the best of Australian and International works for a ‘One Day Art Sale’ offering collectable and investment art at auction market prices.

The first of these sales will be held at Holy Family Catholic School on Saturday 17th September between 10.30am – 3pm at 32 Willowdene Ave Luddenham, giving the astute investor and those wishing to enter the art market an opportunity to invest in high quality and collectable works by popular artists at affordable prices.

This ‘One Day Sale’ will feature more than 80 collectable investment quality art works from leading Australian, International and Aboriginal artists including: Pro Hart, David Boyd, Ray Crooke, Sidney Nolan, Charles Blackman, Dorothy Napangardi, Gloria Petyarre, Salvador Dali, Marc Chagall, Pablo Picasso and many many more.
