The vision underpins what our school strives to achieve and our Year 6 leadership team begin their daily morning assembly reciting our vision. A reminder that students will be heading over to Quandialla Pool in Weeks 8 and 9 for intensive swimming. Students will need swimmers, a rash vest, sunscreen and a towel each day. All students are currently working towards their goals. It takes great determination for them to persevere and achieve their selected goal in English and Maths. They keep a record of their goals in their books and write an explanation of how they attained it or show a piece of evidence to prove they reached their goal. Well done!

This week at your Henry Lawson High School ... Sunshine on the peaks A fantastic assembly was held on Wednesday to launch the song Sunshine on the Peaks. Our guests included Ms Steph Cooke, member for Cootamundra, Mayor Mark Liebich, Councillor Philip Diprose, representatives from Grenfell Men’s Shed, Arts OutWest and Grenfell Multi-purpose Services, as well as parents and guests. I was extremely proud of what the students and community achieved with the song. It was a fantastic example of us all working together. The project has been very valuable for the school and particularly for those students that participated. The connections made, and aspirations of students, are forever changed as a result of being part of this project. Prime 7 News was on site to record the occasion and I am pleased with how well our school has been show-cased across the region. Thank you to Mr Brodie McKnight and Councillor Philip Diprose, who did the bulk of the coordination and organisation for the project.

  • 'Soils' and 'Vegetation'?
    Is there a close association between ‘soils’ and ‘vegetation’? A case study from central western New South Wales M.O. Rankin1, 3, W.S Semple2, B.W. Murphy1 and T.B. Koen1 1 Department of Natural Resources, PO Box 445, Cowra, NSW 2794, AUSTRALIA 2 Department of Natural Resources, PO Box 53, Orange, NSW 2800, AUSTRALIA 3 Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Abstract: The assumption that ‘soils’ and ‘vegetation’ are closely associated was tested by describing soils and vegetation along a Travelling Stock Reserve west of Grenfell, New South Wales (lat 33° 55’S, long 147° 45’E). The transect was selected on the basis of (a) minimising the effects of non-soil factors (human interference, climate and relief) on vegetation and (b) the presence of various soil and vegetation types as indicated by previous mapping. ‘Soils’ were considered at three levels: soil landscapes (a broad mapping unit widely used in central western NSW), soil types (according to a range of classifications) and soil properties (depth, pH, etc.). ‘Vegetation’ was considered in three ways: vegetation type (in various classifications), density/floristic indices (density of woody species, abundance of native species, etc.) and presence/absence of individual species. Sites along the transect were grouped according to soil landscapes or soil types and compared to vegetation types or indices recorded at the sites. Various measures indicated low associations between vegetation types and soil landscapes or soil types. Except for infrequent occurrences of a soil type or landscape, any one soil type or landscape was commonly associated with a number of vegetation types and any one vegetation type was associated with a number of soil landscapes or soil types.

Weddin Shire Council has seen significant change over the last four years since it developed its first Community Strategic Plan (2013-2023), Delivery Plan and Operational Plan. This Plan reflects these changes. The new Plan is a requirement of the NSW Government and assists the community in better understanding where we are and how we can get to a sustainable future that best meets the whole of community needs. The Weddin Community values its independence and sense of place. Since 2012, the community has continued to express a strong commitment to remaining as an independent Council and improving community amenities so that skills and resources can continue to be attracted to Weddin. In doing so, Weddin embraces the opportunity to work with neighbouring and regional councils and a broad range of government bodies so services can be more efficiently and effectively delivered through a broadly collaborative and inclusive plan.

  • Conference Papers
    Activities for the aged in a small rural community—the Weddin Day Therapy Program Helen Denovan, Occupational Therapist, Co-ordinator Weddin Day Therapy Program, Grenfell Community Health Centre, Mid Western Area Health Service I now find it easier to get my feet into my pants. (Mrs A, aged 89 years) I didn’t think attending this group would make any difference, however I feel better after I have attended—more positive. (Mrs B, aged 89 years) These two unsolicited comments from participants in a weekly exercise group run through the Weddin Day Therapy Program are indicators that the objectives of this program are being met. This paper will describe the establishment and evaluation of the Weddin Day Therapy Program, a program that is aimed at keeping older people active and independent. The Weddin Shire and Grenfell Multipurpose Health Service The Weddin Shire, with a population of 3903 and an area of 3429 square kilometres is situated 372 km west of Sydney and 213km north west of Canberra. It is a farming community with 23% of the population over 60 years of age. The main town is Grenfell (with a population of approximately 2000) and the outlying villages are Quandialla, Greenethorpe and Caragabal (with an estimated population of around 100 in each site). The remaining population is farm dwelling. There is a Multipurpose Health Service situated at Grenfell, which includes acute, residential and community health services. Community health staff provide outreach services to the outlying villages. There is a community health centre at Quandialla, with a locally based district nursing service and visiting GP, Child and Family and Community Nursing services.

  • 'From These Youth Has Gone': Population
    LPS Autumn 2015 Text:LPS 03/12/2015 12:02 Page 50 ‘From These Youth Has Gone’: Population Decline in the Lachlan Region of New South Wales, 1920–1947 Robert Tierney and Kevin Parton Abstract This article analyses major events during the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s affecting the Lachlan region, in New South Wales, in order to assess their relative impact on population change. The analysis juxtaposes the demographic changes taking place against the economic context of the time. The Lachlan region is compared with the four other wheat- sheep regions of New South Wales and with the State generally. The paper demonstrates that population decline in the Lachlan region in the 1930s and 1940s was substantially greater than that of other wheat-sheep regions and of the State of New South Wales generally, and sets out to explain this anomaly. The Depression, the Second World War, drought over a sequence of years, and changing technology are shown, in combination, to be the underlying causes of substantial change that heralded the long-term drift of population from regional and rural NSW; especially so in the Lachlan region. In November 1941, the Sydney Morning Herald published a lengthy article entitled, ‘Deserted country towns’, addressing what it regarded as a disturbing depopulation trend in the Lachlan region of New South Wales (NSW). The article was particularly concerned about the exodus of youth from the region’s towns and villages, using somewhat emotionally- charged language, such as: ‘From these youth has gone’. 1 The motivation for our study was to obtain a clearer understanding of this trend, which elsewhere had already caused substantial social disruption.
