that doesn’t mean we can get complacent. If you haven’t already, now is the time to make a bush fire survival plan so you’ll know what to do if an emergency arises. The Rural Fire Service website has a simple guide to help you rfs. nsw.gov.au

It’s important to plan now for what you’ll do. Sit down and talk with your family about when to leave, what to take and what to do with animals. Don’t leave it to the last minute, as emergencies can happen with little or no warning. There are simple things you can do around your home to prepare it for a bush fire, like

keeping the grass low, the gutters clear and having a cleared area around your home. These things should be done well beforehand, as leaving it to the last minute is too late. If an emergency should arise, we have developed the Port Stephens Emergency Dashboard, which gives you real-time updates on road closures, power outages, weather warnings and evacuation

Christmas Lights for Charity By Heather SHARP

NOVEMBER 20 is World Children’s Day. It is celebrated annually on 20 November and is UNICEF’s global day of action for children and led by children. 20 November is an important date and this year will mark the 60th Anniversary of the adoption of the Convention of the Rights of the Child in 1959. Ms Alisha Onslow, cofounder of Climate Action Port Stephens told News Of The Area, “This year, Australian Parents for Climate Action, are holding a National Week of Action across the Nation highlighting the rights of children in a safe climate.” “They will be calling on the Australian Government to act urgently to safeguard the future of children by taking immediate action to address the climate

Port Stephens is an amazing community and we all need to come together in times of emergency to keep each other safe. They will be meeting on the corner of William and Adelaide Streets, Raymond Terrace at 12noon. Together, they will walk down William Street and gather at Riverside Park for a picnic and speeches. The community is invited to attend.

services off the Tomaree Peninsula. The Real Futures Foundation is a privately funded charity which supports Port Stephens youth in their transition from school to employment. We are hosting a BareFoot Bowls event at Fingal Bay Sports Club on November 28 from 6pm. This fun activity requires no bowls experience, just a willingness to have a go. Deputy Chair of the Real Futures Foundation Bob Westbury told News Of The Area, “We are excited to be launching

the Latitude One BareFoot Bowls event to raise funds for our youths. “It’s something different and the entry fee is an extremely reasonable $18 which is fully tax deductible as the charity has full deductible gift recipient status with the Tax Office.” He believes that supporting local youth is very important. “When our youth feel the support of their community and have great opportunities they are empowered, that’s what the Foundation does, it empowers our youth to have an ‘I can” attitude to go with the skills they are developing.” The Foundation

delivers a range of programs including communications skills, upskilling, and offers unique opportunities to those students at risk of falling through the cracks. Recent successes include the Salamander Bay Recycling Centre’s Practical Maths program which has seen students learn vital maths for life including household budgeting and understanding the benefits of first principal shopping versus buying pre-prepared meals. Each year the Foundation is supported by local service organisations including the Lions Club of Soldiers

Point, Rotary Club of Salamander Bay and the Masonic Lodges. We also conduct fundraising activities to boost funds to deliver programs to meet the needs of students. “I invite everyone to register to participate in this event and come along to Fingal Bay Sports Club on 28 November and support our local youth,” he said.

Sausage Sarnies Create STEM Education Opportunities By Marian SAMPSON

SOLDIERS Point Public School is tucked away in a beautiful bushland setting, somewhat out of sight out of mind for many of us. The students benefit from their environment which is adjacent to Stoney Ridge Reserve. When it comes to fundraising sometimes being out of sight and out of mind makes things that little bit harder. Recently the Lions Club of Soldiers Point, with the assistance of Bunnings at Taylors Beach, donated a barbeque to the school that the Parents and Citizens Association (P & C) can use to fundraise with the all Australian Sausage Sizzle. Relieving Principal Louisa De Souza was excited to see the barbeque being put together by the local Lions, she told News Of The Area, “It’s great having the Lions give us the opportunity to raise funds for things that we can use in and around the school for the students, providing books and sporting equipment and STEM technology.” Humble sausage sandwiches are being turned into STEM learning coding opportunities with the P & C purchasing Ozone Bots and Lego We Do’s for the students

the new barbeque will make it easier to cater at the school fundraising events. “The students have just had a ball playing and learning with these

combining science and mathematics,” she said. The school is fortunate to have a very active P & C whose fundraising contributes to the education and wellbeing of the schools students. Soldiers Point Public School has

Christmas Giving Tree

By Heather SHARP

WITH natural disasters ravaging the State at the moment, it can be difficult to know what to do to help those in need. Irrawang High School has teamed up with Rural Aid to provide material goods for farmers in need. Rural Aid was started in 2015 and it aims to support rural communities, especially farmers. The founders of Rural Aid also established the Buy A (Hay) Bale initiative in 2013 before branching out into larger areas of support. As part of Rural Aid’s

Bush Christmas Appeal For Farmers, Irrawang HS has placed a Christmas giving tree in the school office foyer and is inviting the community to make donations. They would appreciate personal care items such as shampoo and conditioner, toothbrushes and toothpaste, deodorant, sanitary items, moisturiser, sunscreen, shaving cream, and other similar items. Vice Captain Abbey Everingham told News Of The Area, “The purpose of the giving tree is to aid the farmers in need, by supplying them with items such as personal care items.”

“We would love to support the farmers and this year our school community is supporting families in the Murrurundi area who are suffering.” “Our students and teachers and school community are always ready to get involved in fundraisers and have always been more than generous to collect for families in need.” “Last year we raised money for Rural Aid and the Buy a Bale campaign, so we were happy to support farmers in the Upper Hunter again.” “We would love the community to help out and they are more than welcome

to come in to the school to donate items for our farmers.” Vice Captain Luke Allanson told News Of The Area, “Students at our school have a very positive attitude to the giving tree and are more than happy to donate personal care items.” “We think of these personal care items as everyday items but farmers regard them as q School leaders, Vice Captains Luke Allanson and Abbey Everingham support the Bush Christmas Appeal For Farmers. luxuries, so we are very happy to help those in need.” of the community donated happy.” “Anything to brighten up $8272 in cash and about 50 Last year Irrawang High their Christmas will make us School with the support big boxes of products.

There are other things you can do to help animals particularly koalas over the summer. Koalas can drown in a pool, so a stout rope being draped into your pool could be a lifesaver. If you see a Koala needing care call 0418 PSKOALAS or 0418 775 625 in Port Stephens. Port Stephens Koalas spokesperson urged drivers to “Please slow down if

driving, especially from dusk to dawn, and keep an eye out for koalas, they have no road sense at all and are hard to see at night.” Rescues of koalas are more common wherever habitat has been disturbed. We have had several calls to the Medowie region in the last month, the first in many years. As areas continue to be developed, koalas will be seen in the middle of suburbia, as

well as on roads, as they try to find mates during breeding season and will come to grief on roads, and with dogs, as they travel. Male koalas in spring roam looking for mates and at this time they are often spotted crossing roads. Young males are particularly at risk as they need to find their own territory away from others. If a koala is involved in a vehicle strike it is important

Caring For Wildlife During Extreme Weather By Marian SAMPSON

RESIDENTS of Port Stephens are being urged to keep an eye on the weather and think of the wildlife on days with extreme heat. All animals are at risk of dehydration, just as we are. The team from Port Stephens Koalas are urging people who live near the bush to “Pop a bowl of water out away from your dog’s bowl!”

that they receive care. Port Stephens Koalas believe it is important that koalas are not chased up trees after they are hit, as they can climb even when severely injured. While the construction of Port Stephens Koala Sanctuary and Hospital is underway, Port Stephens Koalas do not have an income stream to help us with our ongoing care and medical expenses, fuel for

rescues and leafing trips, or any other day-to-day items. We still need the community’s financial support. Please adopt, donate, become a volunteer or even buy one of our Koala Carer’s Books a great gift. All items can be purchased on the https:// portstephenskoalas.com. au

Grant Provides Skills Enhancement for Artists

By Marian SAMPSON

AMONG the recipients of the Port Stephens Council Cultural Grants was The Port Stephens Community Arts Centre which received a Grant to deliver skills enhancement for members. The Grant has been divided amongst eleven of the groups operating in the Centre. The Bonsai group used their funds to deliver demonstrations from two Australian bonsai experts, Hugh Grant from Central Coast Bonsai and Brenda Parker President of Illawarra Bonsai Society. The Fusion group chose an Echo Dying workshop which explored how nature and all its wonders can be used to enhance their fabric crafts. They were instructed by Metta Henderson on how to use mulberries, turmeric,

Special Visitor at Regis Snake Season is Here Aged Care By Julie McKimm

SUMMER is fast approaching and with it comes the increased incidence of snakes in our backyards. Some of the most common in our area being the eastern brown snake, red bellied black snake, rough scale snake, yellow faced whip snake and diamond python. There are many misconceptions about snakes and their behaviour so News Of The Area contacted one of Medowie’s snake enthusiasts, Dylan Stuart, for advice on what to do if you come across a snake.

By Julie McKimm

RECENTLY the team from Hunter Horse Haven visited Regis Aged Care Facility with a special visitor for the residents, Stormie, the pony. Stormie brought smiles to many of the elderly residents who loved and enjoyed his visit. Stormie visited every floor via the elevator, which didn’t faze him at all provided there was a steady supply of carrots for him to munch on. He happily walked into tight spaces to visit infirm residents that were unable to rise from their beds to touch him, squeezing between furniture and walkers and having to back out of tight spaces.

q Stormie receiving plenty of attention during a recent visit to Regis Aged Care in Corlette.

Dylan told News of the Area “No snake is dangerous. They aren’t aggressive and 100% will not chase you. They are shy animals and will defend themselves if needed, that is mistaken for aggression. All snakes will react to movement which results in them being defensive. Their first plan of action is to get away as quick as possible. Out of the hundreds of snakes I’ve caught, not once have I been chased or had aggression shown to me.” He added, “If a snake is in your yard, remove all humans and pets from the

President of Hunter Horse Haven, Debbie Barber told News Of The Area, “He gave cuddles to many like he knew what he was doing was important and provided happiness and soothed the soul. A massive thank-you must go to Ayva and Michelle who volunteered to help and ensured everything went smoothly. Also thank-you to the girls who fed the horses today back at the Haven and the staff at Regis Retirement Village for organising the visit.” Hunter Horse Haven volunteer their time to give back to the local community in thanks for their caring support. If anyone would like to sponsor Stormie, sponsorship is $12.50 per week or a tax deductible donation is appreciated. Please contact Hunter Horse Haven on their Facebook page or email hunterhorsehaven@gmail.com for details. A day brightening the lives of our elderly is worth its weight in gold.

area. Keep at a safe distance, call a catcher and watch the snake. Do not try to scare it away, catch it or kill it as that increases your chance of being bitten by 90%.” Killing one snake allows up to 10,000 rodents to reproduce in a year. Other misconceptions around snakes are that red bellied black snakes keep away brown snakes, which they don’t and that snake repellents on the market keep them away, again they don’t. Contacts for snake relocations in the area can be found on the Port Stephens Native Wildlife Facebook page.
