Pupils of the Week Congratulations to this week’s recipients. This week I asked the students to identify what award their classmates should receive. Jacob Burrows for his super I.T. skills and excellent leadership at Camp and Healthy October Ceremony. Milla Kennedy for her willingness to have a go at all new things. Bree Cordina for her happy and helpful nature and promotion of school health. Tegan Cuthbert for her patient and caring nature and artistic talents.

Ryan Cuthbert for amazing everyone with his improvement in Reading and Mathematics. Jukal Webster for becoming an extra teacher in the classroom. Keigan for his high standard in Mathematics. Kate Whorwood for her enthusiasm in everything at school. Principal’s Message Official Opening of the Walk To School/Healthy October Month On Monday the Shire of Gannawarra officially opened the Walk To School/Healthy October program at Lake Charm. The students did a great job preparing posters, a video and various activities to enhance the occasion. The Program was officially launched by Shire Councillor Neil Gannon, who cut the red ribbon that Jacob had organised. The students, parents and guests heard about the importance of exercise and healthy eating, and participated in a fun veil dance and Jump rope, shared a fruit and vegetable platter, richly supplemented with snow peas from the garden. The students under the leadership of Jacob and Jukal produced a ‘horror’ video on the evils of soft drinks and Bree and Tegan got the whole crowd rocking with a rendition of ‘Let’s Get Physical!’ Lake Charm was selected to host the opening as a recognition of our work in participating in and promoting Healthy October last year. This was a great honour. Councillor Neil Gannon and his wife Elvie were presented with a dozen eggs from our chooks which was rather fitting as Neil officially opened our chook house last year. Thank you to the Shire of Gannawarra, Councillor Neil Gannon, Narelle O’Donoghue (Manager of Community Health) who coordinates the event, Tanya Maher-Toose who spoke on the importance of exercise and good diet and Pia Frisby from the Gannawarra Library Service who lead the Bollywood Dance session. Fun Run and Footy Day On Friday we will be conducting the Fun Run commencing at around 10am. After recess we will have our annual Footy match……so we will need as many Dads and Mums to come along to have a kick. The students and adults will partake of a footy theme lunch before we pack up by 1:30 ready for a well-deserved two weeks vacation. Thursday lunch On Thursday we will partake of an end of term lunch at the Lake Charm store. Students meals will be paid for by the school. The cost for non-students is $6 a head. Parents, grand parents and friends are encouraged to attend. Any adults who are interested in going should contact the shop direct a.s.a.p. Lunch will start around 1:30. Kerang Show Please note that this year we will be taking the Kerang Show Holiday on Tuesday October 4th. Mrs Noonan(Michelle)/Donna We trust that Michelle is having a great time in Canada and we look forward to hearing of her adventures on her return. Donna has also been away the last couple of weeks. We also look forward to her return. Wanted one footy jumper Mr.M forgot to pack a footy jumper on the weekend so if anyone has a spare jumper (any team-preferably black and red) please send it to school on Thursday or Friday morning. What’s happening in the classroom Preparing for our Healthy October/Walk To School Official Opening kept us very busy on Thursday and Friday. The students are really looking forward to the Fun Run and Football Day on Friday. This week we had Kylie Cummins join our teaching staff for a couple of days. Kylie really enjoyed her time with us. Jukal and Bree have both qualified in a number of events for the third round of the Athletics. Hopefully the rain will have eased enough for the Regional Athletics to go ahead this week.

  • Select Committee Inquiry Into the Murray-Darling Basin Plan
    Submission to the Select Committee Inquiry into the Murray-Darling Basin Plan September 2015 Prepared by Stuart Simms and Raelene Peel On behalf of the Kerang Lakes Land and Water Action Group Kerang Lakes Land and Water Action Group Secretary In making this submission to the Senate Select Committee inquiry into the Murray-Darling Basin Plan on behalf of the Kerang Lakes Land and Water Action Group (KLL&WAG) we wish to address • the social, economic and environmental effects on our community of an existing Murray- Darling Basin Authority Salt Interception Scheme • the challenges of sustainable production in the Murray Darling Basin • the management of the Lower Lakes and Coorong • environmental watering of Red Gum Forests 1. Social, economic and environmental effects of an existing Murray-Darling Basin Authority Salt Interception Scheme To demonstrate we provide the following case study on the Barr Creek Drainage Scheme that came into operation in 1968 and its ongoing effects on the social, economic and environmental sustainability of our community. Barr Creek Drainage Scheme Case Study: The Tutchewop Lakes, comprising Lakes Tutchewop, Little, Kelly and William are located in north- western Victoria. Lake Tutchewop, the largest of the lakes is approximately 30 km’s north of Kerang, whilst Lake Kelly is 1 km west of the Loddon River, a tributary of the Murray River. Under natural conditions Lake Tutchewop was an intermittent freshwater lake, supplied by the Avoca and Loddon River systems via the network of lakes and wetlands referred to as the Kerang Lakes. In 1923 Lake Tutchewop was incorporated into the Torrumbarry Irrigation System, a role it performed until 1935 when it was decommissioned due to water losses.

  • Inquiry Into Flood Mitigation Infrastructure in Victoria Submission No.6
    Inquiry into flood mitigation infrastructure in Victoria Submission no.6 Lake Boga Vic. 3584 23rd July 2011 The Chairman Inquiry into Flood Mitigation Infrastructure in Victoria Dear Mr Koch, Herewith, I offer a submission to your enquiry which includes items I hope will be acted upon after you deliver your report. I also hope my submission and remarks give additional information to help you arrive at your conclusions. Now retired, I once conducted woolgrowing activities in the Tresco – Mystic Park area. I have lived at Tresco over 72 years, have experienced three major floods in that time, and know the Benjeroop, Mystic Park, Lake Boga region well. It is the Avoca River, terminating in this area, with which I am particularly experienced. All remarks and recommended works for the Avoca Outfall are based on experience and knowledge of the flood characteristics of that area of the river. The latest 2011 flood, considered the greatest since European settlement, was carried by existing infrastructure of the Outfall channel past Mystic Park, but its disposal beyond that township was poor because of much needed works and improved management. Below, is my resume of the past and present situation of this river and lakes system, followed by a list of works urgently required to safeguard against future damage in the control of floods. Yours faithfully, John Jobson The Avoca, Loddon and Murray Rivers in the region north of Kerang. Three rivers in flood (the Avoca, Loddon and Murray Rivers) reach this region and converge in one general area (Benjeroop, Winlaton, Fish Point, Lake Boga) before proceeding past Swan Hill in one river – the Murray.
