RON THOMPSON, CEO RSL LifeCare amalgamates I am pleased to advise RSL LifeCare has signed a contract with Anglicare (Diocese with Anglicare Aged Care of Canberra and Southern NSW) to purchase five villages and community care in Canberra and South Coast service located in Canberra and the south coast of NSW: Gininderra Gardens, Page, Canberra: 136 aged care beds and 27 retirement living homes; Brindabella Gardens, Curtin, Canberra: 112 aged care beds; Bimbimbie Village, Merimbula: 52 aged care beds and 115 retirement living homes; Mariner Park, Tura Beach, Merimbula: 66 aged care beds and 14 retirement living homes; Nullica Lodge, Eden: 27 aged care beds; Community Care: 87 aged care packages. From a strategic perspective, RSL LifeCare seeks to develop in NSW and the ACT in key regional areas. With regards to Canberra, this city is a strategic location and Anglicare offers two villages located in separate areas (north and south). Key positives are: Canberra is a major centre; Provides a base in southern Canberra to supplement the existing Morshead (north) facility; They are located in a growing area; Ageing population; Major infrastructure; Regional health care centre; Limited risk. With regards to the South Coast, the Merimbula area is a regional centre and the three villages offer key positives: Merimbula is a regional centre; Provides a base in southern NSW; They are located in a growing area; Ageing population; Limited risk. RSL LifeCare’s growth has been significant and with the Anglicare linkage, our total residential care beds will be 2,000, retirement living homes 1,750 and community care clients 1,900. A decade ago, RSL LifeCare comprised two villages comprising 500 nursing home beds and 500 retirement living homes plus 30 community care packages. It is anticipated that the linkage with Anglicare will take place in about three months, around May. RON THOMPSON, CEO Hello from Elizabeth Whenever I visit The Grange, I am amazed by the growth since my last visit. It seems as though villas just keep popping up all over the place. Since my greater involvement in Canberra, with RSL LifeCare’s expansion into the ACT, it is very apparent how important it is for us to use every opportunity to market all of the Villages across the group at every opportunity. To this end, when we had an Open day at Gardiner Grove Retirement Village in Canberra recently, we also used the opportunity to “market” The Grange. Similarly, there will be a Retirement Living Expo in Canberra on 20 March where we will do the same. The ANZAC Day Service is planned for 22 April 2014 and we hope to see Elizabeth Jenkins you all there. Executive GM Southern HAPPY HOUR AT THE GRANGE Thank you, Judith, for welcoming my family to Happy Hour. I am sure you all know my husband, Jock, (on the left). Steph, (the tall one in the middle) is my son’s lovely girlfriend. It appears, however, that one is missing and that would be my son! Apparently, he had a date with his brand new fishing boat and fishing rod. The next two lovely ones are my daughters, Haley and Leisa. And last, but not at all least, my stepson, Jordan, on the end. GREETINGS FROM LYN The long hot summer is now but a memory and the cooler months are coming our way. I am sure the cooler weather is a welcome change for the tradesmen working tirelessly to develop this fast growing Village. By the end of May, we expect to have 73 occupied villas and 122 residents living at The Grange as well as the ongoing construction of new villas. The commencement date for the development of the next stage of roads is swiftly looming closer. The Bowling Green is well under construction and the Maintenance Shed has been completed. With the cooler weather upon us, it is certainly a good opportunity to get a community vegetable garden underway. The piano now has pride of place in the Community Centre and we have come to realise we have a lot of hidden musical talent lurking in our villas as residents are slowly but surely coming forward to entertain with a sing-a-long at Happy Hour. I have been secretly told that we have a chorus in our midst and they are practicing for their debut in public some time in the near Lyn Pearce future. Manager CANCER COUNCIL PRESENTATION AND BUNNINGS SAUSAGE SIZZLE One of our modest residents, who would prefer to remain anonymous, asked if we could promote skin cancer awareness at The Grange. The Cancer Council volunteered to give us a presentation on “Saving our Skin” whilst Bunnings, volunteering for a good cause, came to our rescue to cater for the multitude of tradesmen, residents and the developers with a Sausage Sizzle. KEVIN & JANNETTE CAMERON ENJOYING HIGH TEA AT THE GRANGE FOR VALENTINE’S DAY “We were married in 1958 in Grafton and are celebrating 55 years of marriage. We have four children and six grandchildren spread across the continent from Calgary in Canada to Hobart in Tasmania. Kevin was a Bank Manager with ANZ Bank and we moved many times and experienced many different lifestyles from Broken Hill to Sydney and quite a few other places in between. Life has been a roller coaster ride and we have loved every minute. When we retired, our daughter in Wagga Wagga asked us to come and have a look at The Grange and from the moment we walked into the display villa, and looked out onto the courtyard, we felt at home and both agreed instantly that The Grange is where we wanted to be. We loved the whole ambience and we love the lifestyle.” ENJOYING THE LIFESTYLE Residents all dressed up and heading off for a night on the town. “We were picked up at the front door and then off to the movie premiere, “Mandela - Long Walk to Freedom”. “We all enjoyed the movie. The night was topped off nicely with a complimentary glass of champagne, juice and cheese and biscuits on arrival and then back home to The Grange.” WHILST WE LOVE WATCHING THE MANY VARIETIES OF BIRDS IN THE VILLAGE, WE DON’T LIKE SHARING OUR FRUITS OF THE VINE WITH THE BIRDS. SO, IT’S ALL HANDS ON DECK TO GET THE NETS OUT TO PROTECT THIS YEAR’S VINTAGE.

  • EUROBODALLA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Inc
    EUROBODALLA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Inc. PO Box 888 MORUYA NSW 2537 www.enhs.org.au NEWSLETTER NUMBER 153 JULY 2012 Threatened species need our help Will you ‘adopt a beach’ for the shorebirds? It‟s rapidly approaching that time of the year when we start seeing more of our shorebirds and seabirds appearing on our local beaches. Each year during spring and summer the National Parks and Wildlife Service puts a program in place that focuses on monitoring and protecting these birds, particularly the „famous four‟ - Hooded Plover, Little Tern and the Pied and Sooty Oystercatcher. The program is volunteer-based and it would be nearly impossible to do the work required without the help of dedicated people taking an active role in the conservation of these threatened species. Do you spend time on the beaches and estuaries in your area? Do you own a pair of binoculars and a notebook? If the answer is yes to these questions then you can help with the program this year! The NPWS is looking for anyone who visits the beaches and nearby lakes regularly to keep a special eye out for our „famous four‟ and this year the Hooded Plover takes centre stage. The Hooded Plover is currently on the „critically endangered‟ list in NSW. There are only 50 known individuals located between Wollongong and the Victorian border. In the Eurobodalla over the 2010/11 season, a pair of adults was reported from the Tilba/Bermagui area and a pair of immature birds was photographed at Potato Point. Hooded Plover can be seen at the water‟s edge where they feed on prey: crustaceans, marine worms, small insects and bivalves.

  • Changes to Driver Licence Sanctions in Your CLSD Region
    Changes to Driver Licence Sanctions in Your CLSD Region In 2020, Revenue NSW introduced a hardship program focused on First Nations people and young people. As a result, the use of driver licence sanctions for overdue fine debt changed on Monday 28th September 2020 in some locations. How are overdue fines and driver licence sanctions related? If a person has overdue fines, their driver licence may be suspended. The driver licence suspension may be removed if the person: • pays a lump sum to Revenue NSW, or • enters a payment plan with Revenue NSW, or • is approved for a WDO. A driver licence suspension can be applied for multiple reasons, so even after being told that a driver licence suspension for unpaid fines has been removed, people should always double check that it is OK to drive by contacting Service NSW. Driver licence restrictions can also be put on interstate licences and cannot be removed easily. If you have a client in this situation, they should get legal advice. What has changed? Now, driver licence sanctions will not be imposed as a first response to unpaid fines for enforcement orders that were issued on or after 28 September 2020 to First Nations people and young people who live in the target locations. What are the target locations? Locations that the Australian Bureau of Statistics classifies as: • very remote, • remote • outer regional, and • Inner regional post codes where at least 9% of the population are First Nations People. Included target locations on the South Coast are the towns of Batemans Bay, Bega, Bodalla, Eden, Eurobodalla, Mogo, Narooma, Nowra Hill, Nowra Naval PO, Merimbula, Pambula, Tilba and Wallaga Lake.

  • The Ultimate South Coast Oyster Trail
    RESTAURANT AUSTRALIA | MEDIA INFORMATION THE ULTIMATE SOUTH COAST OYSTER TRAIL When it comes to unspoilt destinations, the NSW South Coast is postcard perfect. This meandering drive south from Sydney unearths an astonishing range of local wines, cheeses, vegetables and seafood – plus oysters as the star ingredient! Local hero: oysters The pristine lakes, rivers and ocean found here form a large chunk of Australia’s 300 km-long Oyster Coast – with farms sprinkled across the Shoalhaven and Crookhaven rivers, Clyde River, Wagonga Inlet and the lakes at Tuross, Wapengo, Merimbula, Pambula and Wonboyn. Local oyster farmers are committed to ensuring that these estuaries are among the most environmentally sustainable oyster-growing regions in the world. The local specialty is the Sydney rock oyster, one of the few indigenous oysters still being farmed anywhere in the world and prized for its intense and tangy flavour. DAY 1: SYDNEY TO MOLLYMOOK Morning Starting from Sydney, travel south along the coast past beautiful beaches around Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama to the Shoalhaven Coast wine region. The breathtaking beauty of the countryside, the beaches and towering escarpment ensure that the vineyards here are among the most beautiful in Australia. Each of the 18 vineyards in the region has cellar doors where you can try a wide variety of red and white styles. Visit Gerringong’s Crooked River Wines which takes in a landscape that literally stretches from the mountains to the sea; Two Figs Winery that sits proudly overlooking the Shoalhaven River and offers a simply breathtaking view; and Coolangatta Estate near Berry to taste their award-winning semillon.

We received some 188 submissions and held public hearings over six days in the towns of Nowra, Batemans Bay and Bega as well as in Sydney. Fifty one people appeared at the public hearings. Having given due regard to all the submissions, we present our report, with recommendations, on each of the sites. It is important to read the recommendations along with the body of the report, especially the planning assessment and the environmental assessment sections of each site’s evaluation. We have also suggested some planning issues for further discussion that arose during our investigations and deliberations. My colleagues on the Panel, Mr Vince Berkhout and Dr David Robertson have brought considerable experience and expertise to the task, and we are unanimous in our recommendations. Of the total area already zoned for potential development (about 2200ha) we recommended less than 30% to be developed. Of all the land investigated (about 5900ha) we recommended that almost 30% be for environmental conservation. We were very ably assisted in all the preparations for our meetings and public hearings and preparation of the report by Mr Paul Freeman.
