Talkabout-April-2016-.Pdf Volume 19 No 1 April 2016 The 1950/51 Infants' Section decided to play football with the Small Schools' Division. PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Can you find a fellow student of WWTC? Can you help? Have you done your homework? Have you any WWTC memorabilia? As President of the WWTCAA these questions have been the challenges issued over the past year to our membership. I am pleased to report that the responses to these challenges have been fantastic. We have found more members and traced some of those lost to the mailing list. There are more alumni actively involved in organisation and operations of the association. Homework submissions for publication in Talkabout have come from a broad range of our membership and many of our retirees are digging into their garages and cupboards to find memorabilia for archives. How good is Talkabout? The contributions from members always make this publication an interesting read. Expressions of appreciation are always forthcoming. It certainly serves the function of keeping people informed and in touch with their colleagues and provides a forum for disseminating information about our association’s activities. It was pleasing to have reports from three of our most recent scholar- ship holders as they complete their course and commence their careers in education. Our Association has been able to increase the amount offered from $6000 to $8000 to the successful final year student(s) in education thanks to the support of our members.

    Swan Hill Regional Livestock Exchange Prime Sheep & Lamb Sale 11th June 2020 Numbers were slightly down from last sale but quality was still maintained with plenty of well finished lambs on offer. All the regular buyers attended, although not all participated fully. However, the market was dearer than last sale, mirroring the improved rates seen across the industry. Prices for Heavy Lambs increased $5-10/ph and Trade Lambs up $10-15/ph. Heavy Merino Lambs remained firm. Light-Medium Merino Lambs were $5-10/ph dearer and Light Lambs saw the biggest rise of $10-20/ph increase. The trend for Mutton was cheaper but there were too few to reliably quote.

Experiments are underway to analyse the influence of fire on both eggbank and seedbank response following inundation. Experiments are being conducted to better quantify photosynthesis and respiration rates in Northern Basin sites aiming to adapt the measurement of stream metabolism to fit with Basin requirements. Lachlan River System Link to newsletters By measuring and then modelling how oxygen goes up and down over a day/night cycle we can work out how much energy is being produced and used in the river channel. This helps inform how water can be used to provide food in the river, especially for baby native fish like Murray cod. The greatest number of plant species on one site was recorded due to inundated conditions and higher than average rainfall - 82 plants, including 61 native species. Gudgeons are the most widespread small fishes in the Basin and it’s likely they’ve played an important role in Australia’s inland waterways for millennia.
