Local Government Area Summary Sheet for the Shire of Macedon Ranges Local Government Area Summary Sheet for the Shire of Macedon Ranges Australian Early Development Index The following data are compiled from the Australian Early Development Index, a population measure of children’s development as they enter school. The average age of these children is 5 years and 7 months. A checklist, completed by a teacher at the child’s school in their first year of full-time school, was completed between 1 May and 31 July 2009. The checklist contained over 100 questions about the development of the child across five developmental domains. More information about these 5 domains can be found on the AEDI website at http://www.rch.org.au/emplibrary/australianedi/AEDI_Domains_Fact_Sheet_2009.pdf While collected at the school, local community data relates to where the child lives. Victorian data is shown below, while on the reverse, data is shown for local communities within the Shire of Macedon Ranges. For nationally comparable data, see the AEDI National report 2009 at http://video.wch.org.au/aedi/A_Snapshot_of_Early_Childhood_Development_in_Australia-AEDI_National_Report_2009.pdf Victoria Number of children involved in the data collection 61,187 Percent of estimated equivalent population 94.2 (ABS 2009: Estimated Resident Population for 5 year olds) Number of teachers involved in completing checklists 3,783 Number of schools where checklists were completed 1,765 Percentage of children developmentally vulnerable on the following domains Physical health and wellbeing 7.7 Social competence 8.4 Emotional maturity 8.3 Language and cognitive skills (school-based) 6.1 Communication skills and general knowledge 8.3 Percentage of children developmentally vulnerable on one or more domains All children 20.2 Aboriginal children 42.5 Children in the most socio-economic disadvantaged communities 31.6 Children proficient in English and speak another language at home 19.6 Children not proficient in English and speak a language other than English 93.5 Percentage of children developmentally vulnerable on two or more domains All children 10.0 Aboriginal children 26.5 Children in the most socio-economic disadvantaged communities 17.1 Children proficient in English and speak another language at home 8.7 Children not proficient in English and speak a language other than English 54.3 AEDI local community data within the Shire of Macedon Ranges Shown below are the the proportions of children who are 'developmentally vulnerable' on the AEDI.

  • Riddells Creek Town Structure Plan Issues Paper Introduction Planning
    Riddells Creek Town Structure Plan Issues Paper Introduction Macedon Ranges Shire Council is preparing a new Town Structure Plan for Riddells Creek. This is a major plan that will shape the future growth and development of the town through to the year 2036. The preparation of the Riddells Creek Town Structure Plan is a Council Plan indicator for the 2012-13 financial year. Council has prepared an Issues Paper to inform the Structure Plan process. The Issues Paper is a consultation tool and does not purport to be a definite list of all issues or rank issues in terms or importance. Issues that are similar or relate to a specific topic are grouped under broad headings such as Transport. The purpose of the Issues Paper is to give the community an understanding of the types of issues that can be considered and help shape the preparation of a Draft Town Structure Plan. Comments received will assist Council in gaining an understanding of the issues that are important to the community and will feed into the preparation of a project brief to guide the process of preparing a Town Structure Plan. Planning The Macedon Ranges Settlement Strategy 2011 recommends growth of Riddells Creek from a current population of 3,500 to a population of 6,100 people in 2036. The justification for the recommended level of growth is based on the existing railway infrastructure and the level of community facilities. However, Riddells Creek currently has limited local employment opportunities and lacks some of the infrastructure that might be expected to deliver a sustainable town.

  • Governance Issues in Developing and Implementing Offsets for Water Management Benefits: Can Preliminary Evaluation Guide Implementation Effectiveness? David L
    Focus Article Governance issues in developing and implementing offsets for water management benefits: Can preliminary evaluation guide implementation effectiveness? David L. Feldman,1∗ Ashmita Sengupta,2 Lindsey Stuvick,3 Eric Stein,2 Vin Pettigrove4 and Meenakshi Arora5 This article explores governance issues in developing innovative pollutant offset programs by focusing on a case study being piloted at the Gisborne Recycled Water Plant in Jackson Creek, a rural subcatchment of the Maribyrnong River north of Melbourne, Australia. The article offers preliminary lessons from the ongoing design and anticipated challenges facing this innovative program based on reflec- tions from the literature and project progress to-date. This case exemplifies a form of adaptive governance—an approach well suited to achieving broad sustainabil- ity objectives—and for which an early assessment is both appropriate and oppor- tune. Adaptive governance is characterized by governmental collaboration with civil society groups, social learning through public participation, and experimen- tation leading to more flexible policy outcomes. Early assessment affords the pos- sibility of midcourse corrections, drawing on experience acquired elsewhere. We contend that the approach being developed in Victoria through this pilot program has implications beyond the use of recycled wastewater for achieving various social objectives. It may also contribute to the development of an expansive water quality offset framework applicable to point source discharges, nonpoint source pollution, and sewerage overspills. Moreover, the approach can be applied to design of off- set systems elsewhere—with appropriate economic savings and effective applica- tion to multiple water quality challenges if potential problems are discerned early. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Introduction 4 3 History of Indigenous Australians in Macedon Ranges Shire 4 4. Registered Aboriginal Parties in Macedon Ranges Shire 6 5. Acknowledgement of Country and Welcome to Country 10 6. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Flags 14 7. Celebrating & Respecting Indigenous Culture 14 8. Staff and Councillor Induction 17 9. Cultural Heritage Management Plans 18 10. Acknowledging and repatriating Indigenous material and objects 19 Updated Nov 2016 2 CEO Foreword I am very pleased to be able to present our ‘Organisational Protocols for Recognising Traditional Owners/Custodians’. The Macedon Ranges region has a strong and rich Indigenous association, going back at least 26,000 years and evident in the range of significant Aboriginal sites within Macedon Ranges including Hanging Rock, Mount William, and Mount Macedon. Aboriginal protocols are a way to recognise the long Indigenous association in Macedon Ranges as well as a way to promote respect and recognition of the Traditional Owners/Custodians. The protocols are a collection of guidelines to advise staff and Councillors in recognising, and therefore respecting, the Traditional Owners/Custodians. By using them our organisation will further develop relationships with local Aboriginal leaders and the Registered Aboriginal Parties. Through these relationships we can develop a better understanding and commitment to engaging with and recognising Aboriginal priorities. In addition, through implementing these protocols the wider community will be able to share in Aboriginal culture and heritage, enabling better relationships between Indigenous people and other Australians.

This activity is a great way to encourage close observation, exploration, creativity and literacy. If nature is unfamiliar, this is a fun way to find familiarity in new surrounds. Get started 1. While walking with the family look for the letters of the alphabet in the bush or beach around you. For example a tree might be growing in the shape of a ‘Y’, a leaf might be curled into an ‘e’ or an imprint I found the in the rock wcould be the shape of letter ‘G’! a ‘k’. Look for just capital letters, For more Wild Families fun visit little letters or both. You could www.vnpa.org.au even look for punctuation marks! 2. Tick the letters off on the checklist provided as you see them. Can you find all 26 letters?
