The Great Outdoors Open the door - it is right outside! BACKYARDS IDEAS • Make a frog play pond ...or a fish pond.....in a dish - make sure you have a toy frog or fish first! • Make a fairy/dinosaur garden in a large dish using leaves, flowers moss, pebbles, sand, dirt, grass, plastic dino's • Read Wombat Stew and go and make one in old pots and pans • Create a waterfall - are great on a hot day • Play in a shallow tray of water with boats • Paint pictures on the paving or fence with water and big brushes • Draw on the paving with chalk - have a theme - pirate island, crocodile creek, fairy dell • Imagine - make a boat out of a laundry basket, house out of a large box • The sandpit - one day it is a beach, the next an island. • Make a "Science Box" - explore the garden - look for bugs, look in mulch under leaves of trees, find spiders in webs, search for the spider when the web is empty. • Scavenger hunt - find things different shapes, things beginning with each letter of the alphabet • Search for a rainbow - rainbow game - collect some paint swatches from your favourite hardware or painting store and find things in the garden the same colour. • Cubbies houses/tents and tee-pees. - as Kids get older graduate from the Pop up tents to constructing their own tents. Give them a tarp, some rope and tent pegs....let them see what they can do....Keep watch and let them have a go - jump in to help just before they give up in frustration or when they have tied each other up in the rope. • Have a picnic in a cubby • Bubble blowing • Raid the recycling bin and construct things - make sure you have loads of masking tape • Paint whatever you made out of the recycling bin - big brushes and a drop sheet to protect tables/pavers etc. • Paint giant cardboard boxes • Make boats out of bottle, containers - see if they float • Make pin wheels • Give children a part of the garden or big pots to grow things in - use a mix of seeds and some potted seedling, so they get quick results and lasting results. • Let older kids help with the weeding and pruning - let them use the choppers/saws • Let them try sawing up sticks with a bush saw • Be on wildlife watch - keep a list of all the wildlife you see. Older kids can record if it is native or a pest. Record how many seen over a period of time. Have a camera handy the kids can use. Have binoculars available. • Have a backyard campfire ( Check Fire regulations with council and RFS) • Cook a meal outdoors • Make a bird house or a bird box, possum box or a bat box. • Explore your garden at night time, then explore your street! • Go for a walk in the rain or right after rain. AT THE PARK • Scavenger hunt, rainbow search, science box and loads of other ideas from the backyard ideas list garden list • Is there a pond/creek that is safe to access - take your boats to float or take the supplies in a big box and make boats and float them straight away. • Take binoculars - good for bird watching....and keeping an eye on the kids! • Crayons and paper - make leaf rubbings • Kites - make them yourself, buy a simple "will fly no matter what" type of kite.

TWELVE IDEAS TO KEEP YOU COOL OVER SUMMER (……. or twelve ideas to help keep your cool over summer!) Try some of these ideas with your children over summer. Water play is loads of fun and inexpensive too! Water Play - Use a large shallow basin and provide a wide variety of containers to encourage exploration & discovery. You’ll find lots of great things in your recycle bin! Set up the water play on the ground or a low table. • Bowls • Measuring cups & • Eyedroppers • Sponges • Buckets spoons • Plastic syringes • Strainers • Bottles • Corks • Funnels • Water wheels • Containers with • Aquarium nets • Plastic squeeze • Wire whisks holes drilled in the • Scoops bottles • Spray bottle bottom Small plastic cups • Plastic tubes • Plastic tubing Waterfalls – use empty milk bottles, small watering cans, funnels, buckets and other containers. Create a waterfall of your own design. Set it up in a small table and chairs, on a ledge or similar. Pretend play – Make a frog pond, duck pond, a fish bowl, rock pool or a busy harbour. Gather together some plastic toys such as boats, people, fish, frogs, ducks. Collect some sand, small pebbles or gravel, larger stones, leaves and twigs from the garden, maybe some shells. You’ll need a flat shallow dish or tray (saucer from a large flower pot or clean cat litter tray) and a jug of water. Get creative and have fun playing. Water painting -Give each child a small container of water (a large yoghurt tub is great) and some large paintbrushes or small paint rollers. Let them "paint" your fence, porch, paving or pathway. Chalk art -If you have an area of paving or concrete you don’t mind the kids drawing on, give them the large pavement chalk and let then create a spectacular artwork. Dipping the chalk into water makes brighter colours.

The access limitations of our urban areas, as a result of poor planning and design, are largely attributed to traditional neglect of the disabled population as a minority group. However, recent data reveals a reality which is to the contrary. Moreover, this issue will be further exacerbated by a rapidly aging population. In recent years, there has been greater recognition by government of the need to rectify accessibility barriers, and moves have been initiated to improve accessibility in building design. Yet a holistic approach has yet to be devised to remove such barriers from the public domain in totality. Urban planning must provide a built environment which facilitates the needs of people with disabilities and encourages their independence and social inclusion. The aim of this thesis is to identify accessibility barriers within the public domain and recommend the means in which planning can play a role to rectify them. With the aid of a wheelchair and a camera, an accessibility audit was undertaken in the CBD, inner and outer areas of Metropolitan Sydney to identify barriers.

    Ecology of Pyrmont Peninsula 1788 - 2008

    Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Sydney, 2010. Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula iii Executive summary City Council’s ‘Sustainable Sydney 2030’ initiative ‘is a vision for the sustainable development of the City for the next 20 years and beyond’. It has a largely anthropocentric basis, that is ‘viewing and interpreting everything in terms of human experience and values’(Macquarie Dictionary, 2005). The perspective taken here is that Council’s initiative, vital though it is, should be underpinned by an ecocentric ethic to succeed. This latter was defined by Aldo Leopold in 1949, 60 years ago, as ‘a philosophy that recognizes[sic] that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism[notably humans] is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual’(http://dictionary.babylon.com). Some relevant considerations are set out in Part 1: General Introduction. In this report, Pyrmont peninsula - that is the communities of Pyrmont and Ultimo – is considered as a microcosm of the City of Sydney, indeed of urban areas globally. An extensive series of early views of the peninsula are presented to help the reader better visualise this place as it was early in European settlement (Part 2: Early views of Pyrmont peninsula). The physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula has been transformed since European settlement, and Part 3: Physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula describes the geology, soils, topography, shoreline and drainage as they would most likely have appeared to the first Europeans to set foot there.

    DRAFT PLAN of MANAGEMENT October 2011

    OLD MANS VALLEY COMMUNITY LAND DRAFT PLAN OF MANAGEMENT October 2011 Old Mans Valley. The study area sits above Hornsby Quarry and below Hornsby Park within close proximity to the CBD, residential areas and Berowra Valley Regional Park. Prepared under the provisions of the Local Government Act 1993 Parks and Landscape Team Hornsby Shire Council Old Mans Valley – Draft Plan of Management Foreword PLAN OF MANAGEMENT – DRAFT Council has prepared this Plan of Management (PoM) as a draft Plan concerned with an open space area known as Old Mans Valley (OMV). OMV forms part of a valley to the west of the Hornsby Town Centre. OMV occupies Lots 1 and 2 of Plan Number 169188 and Lot 1 of Plan Number 112343, which is community land owned by Hornsby Shire Council. It occupies an area of approximately 12.5 hectares, the majority of which has been modified by the activities of early European settlement including logging and farming, followed by impacts associated with quarrying on the adjoining former Hornsby Quarry land to the west. Quarrying resulted in deposits of overburden being placed in OMV, augmented with additional filling with a view to establishing playing fields in OMV. These field construction works remain incomplete and recreation use of the site is limited to unstructured activities. The site has potential for well used recreation facilities when developed. The OMV site is proposed to be developed for structured and unstructured recreation, which will be outlined in this PoM. OMV adjoins Hornsby Park on its eastern and southern boundaries and the former Hornsby Quarry site on its western boundary (see aerial photo in Figure 1).
