Congratulations to Kylie Leckie who won the first local Mother of the Year Award organised by the Warragamba Silverdale Neighbourhood centre to recognise the enormous contribution mothers make in shaping our future generations. There were 15 nominations and Councillor Judith Hannan had the difficult task of picking a winner out of the very worthy nominees. Kylie does a huge amount for the community and her daughter Tarlee commented that her mother would still be the mother of the year even if she wasn’t chosen!

‘Equal Marriage’ Campaigners Don’t Really Want Equality One of the most frequent assertions made in the Gay Marriage debate is that our current legislation is discriminatory. The definition of Marriage as ‘the union of a man and woman voluntarily entered into for life to the exclusion of all others’ is discriminatory against homosexuals who wish to marry. So a definition change to replace ‘man and woman’ with ‘two persons’ is said to right that wrong.

But ‘Equal Marriage’ is a misnomer.

The definition changes only seek to allow same sex marriage. If the campaign for same-sex marriage is really about ‘marriage equality’, why is this being denied to people in group relationships or polyamorists, who are disappointed at being left out (see Australian http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/greens-fallfoul-over-menage-a-trois-ban/storyfn59niix-1226364992321 subscription required). What about consensual bi sexuality? Or polyandry? Or bigamy or polygamy practised in muslim countries? Or so called ‘open marriages’.

Or temporary marriage such as Muhta marriage practised by Shias. Or in-

cest between consenting adults? And there are other practises that exist in our world. On what basis can these sexual practises be fairly excluded from the definition of marriage? Simple definition adjustments could be made to include each of these groups within the purview of marriage. And no compelling reason has been given that if we allow same sex marriage, such arrangements can on any logical grounds be excluded from the definition of marriage.

So a truly ‘Equal Marriage’ definition would read ‘the union of any number of persons voluntarily entered into for any amount of time, and not necessarily to the exclusion of others’.

Such a definition would at least be ‘equal’. But it would be chaos.

It seems ridiculous to have to point this out, but that marriage is a social institution where a man and a woman are supported and nurtured with the purpose of not only having mutual consolation and comfort, but also of having and nurturing children who are their ‘flesh and blood’. The ideal is that a child be brought up by it’s biological mother and father in love and care.

Our definition of marriage is based on Jesus words in Matthew 19:4-6: ‘Haven’t you read that at the begin-

ning the Creator made them male and female and said “For this reason a man will leave his Father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh”. So they are no longer two but one. Therefore, what God has joined together, let man not separate.’ (NIV) Jesus words clearly teach that marriage is between a man and a woman for life to the exclusion of all others. They are good for stability and the upbringing of children. When our society has departed from them, our society suffers, particularly children. We open up a can of worms to allow anything else to be called marriage.

Kalinda Jade Studios makes a move This month is an exciting time at Kalinda Jade Studios as the studio relocates to its new premises in South Penrith.

Kalinda Jade Studios has been operating in Glenmore Park for five years but growth in student numbers and the addition of drums to the tuition menu have meant the studio has outgrown its previous location.

“Our new premises offer more tuition space and an improved recording studio,” said Kalinda McDonald, owner of Kalinda Jade Studios. The new South Penrith location is not far away, located close to The Northern Road. Our new location also comes with increased parking space making it more convenient for students and their families, without requiring them to drive into Penrith.”

Kalinda Jade Studios offers a range of tuition options including singing, piano, guitar and bass, drums, music theory, Higher School Certificate and School Certificate tuition, performance skills and recording.

The studios cater to all levels of experience, however ad-

vanced and HSC tuition programs are a specialty.

“It may only be June but pressure is starting to mount for HSC students,” Kalinda said. “We help students prepare for exams and performances, which can be stressful times, and we make sure they don’t forget how much they love their chosen instrument.All students learn differently so we tailor lesson plans to each student to make sure they achieve their goals.

“Although our teachers are also professional musicians we know that you don't come to a lesson to hear us 'rock out' all the time. Our philosophy is that the only rock star in your lesson will be you!”

While lessons at the new premises begin in June, it will take some time for the studios to completely settle in, so a grand opening is planned in early 2013. The new address is 69 Hilliger Road, South Penrith.

(Hilliger Road runs off Maxwell Street) For more information, contact Kalinda McDonald on 0403 134 336 or visit www.kalindajadestudios.com.au

Free health clinic for women The Silverdale Neighbourhood Centre in Warragamba is running a monthly, free and confidential Well Women’s Clinic. The Clinic provides pap tests, breast checks, pregnancy tests, postnatal checks, sexual health tests and information on women’s health topics including contraception, healthy living, menopause and emotional health.

South Western Sydney Local Health District (SWS LHD) Women’s Health Nurse, Lorena Schot said the Clinic provided women with a friendly, relaxed environment to seek assistance. “Women tell me that they put off seeking health assistance because of the cost, the amount of time they spend sitting in waiting rooms and because they often feel rushed during their appointments,” Ms Schot said.

“At the Clinic we provide a longer consultation, which gives us the opportunity to not only address the health need that the woman presented with, but also provide health advice and check on her general wellbeing,” she said.

The Clinic runs on the last Wednesday of the month. To make an appointment call 4774 1273.

The Clinic works closely with local GPs and other services that women can be referred to if they require more specialised care.

Munch and Move Coming To Your Early Learning Centre What is Munch & Move?

Munch & Move is a healthy lifestyle program for children from birth to five years of age attending preschools, long day care centres or family day care centres in NSW. The program focuses on: • supporting the development of Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) through game-based play • encouraging healthy eating • reducing time spent in small screen recreation (TV, computers, DVD’s etc).

Munch & Move is a NSW Government initiative

What are Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) and why are they important?

FMS are a set of gross motor skills (movements that involve the large muscles of the body) involving different body parts. These skills are important as they are the ‘building blocks’ for more complex skills required by children throughout their lives to competently play different games and sports. Failure to master a basic set of FMS can reduce a child’s confidence and stop their participation in physical activity. Children do not naturally learn these skills, they need to be taught and given opportunities to practice them.

How can I find out more?

Alternatively you can visit the healthykids website: www.healthykids.nsw.gov.au and click

on the Munch & Move logo. Don’t Forget! A great way to improve physical activity is to practice Fundamental Movement Skills at home with your child.

Mulgoa Public School News Mulgoa Public school said farewell to their old demountable library recently, after 38 years! The Don Peel Memorial library was opened on the 4th May 1974 and was dedicated to Mr Don Peel, who was the principal from 1960 until 1970.

The dedication plaque was removed from the old library prior to its removal, and is being retained by the school in its memorabilia collection. The school is still trying to locate the old Honour Board that had the names of the old principals and school captains engraved on it. Any information about the honour board or any other artefacts would be gratefully received by the school!

A new demountable classroom will soon be erected on the site of the old library. The school has grown in numbers over the last couple of years and this has meant the establishment of a fourth class. This has enabled the school to keep its class sizes small, whilst still retaining the friendliness of a small school environment.Mulgoa Public School staff would like to remind parents of children who are coming to school next year to contact the school for an enrolment package. Our transition program starts in July.

Holy Family School Luddenham Playgroup

Our first playgroup on Friday 18th May was a great success. The number of parents and children who attended exceeded expectation.

The group meets every second Friday in the school Hall starting at 9:00 a.m. For further details please contact the school office on 4773 4485.

Vintage Valve Radio equipment Greendale resident Duncan McDonald is a radio technician who trained in the early 1960 era. Duncan says “For many years I have been repairing and restoring early radio equipment, such as Bakelite mantle radios, Console Radios and Transistor Radios.

I have numerous spare parts for this type of equipment including many many valves. I also have a network of other suppliers for hard to find bits.”

Duncan is now retired and wants to maintain his skills and has been restoring these types of sets for antique shops and numerous friends for years. He says “I offer professional servicing to any old radio which people wish to have restored to its operating glory. Many are from people's grandparents and are family treasures.”
