  • Response to Hilltops Council Economic Growth and Land Use Strategy
    Harden Murrumburrah Regional Development Corporation (HRDC) response to Hilltops Council Economic Growth and Land Use Strategy Our hope for Hilltops is to be known as the Council that says: “Yes we Can” ****************** HRDC has concerns that the report tabled to Hilltops Council does not reflect an entrepreneurial and future focused approach for this community and a new growth paradigm is required to ensure short medium and long prosperity. We believe that annual growth of 1-2% per annum is realistic and should be the basis for decisions rather than the extremely negative and pessimistic 0.4% noted for Hilltops and 0.1% for HM. HRDC also believes that access to residential and industrial land is critical for this prosperity to be realized. HRDC is concerned that little regard for the geographic location of this shire in relation to Canberra, South West Sydney and with the imminent commencement of Snowy 2.0. These factors set this region apart as having significant unique opportunities that are not properly explored in these reports. ****************** HRDC appreciates the opportunity to provide an informed and considered response to the reports provided by Hilltops Council in April 2019. 1 | P a g e The establishment of an effective, proactive and flexible LEP is critical in the future growth of the Hilltops region and HRDC is committed to standing with Council in supporting the process towards growth and prosperity of the people of Hilltops. Our Organisation is committed to the continuing growth of Hilltops and the Harden Murrumburrah (HM) township particularly, and the process of community consultation is both appreciated and critical to ensure the community stands together with Council in the development of the LEP.

Dear Families and Friends of our Koorawatha PS Community, A lot has happened in our little school since our last newsletter. We’ve now had our playground unit installed and tried by our students…and staff. A few other significant events that we have participated in include: School’s Clean Up Australia Day, STEAM Ahead Robotics workshop day, Cowra Festival of International Understanding New Zealand Tumanko Maori workshop and Japanese Garden visit, and an agricultural workshop with Cowra High. Term 1 culminated in our very first World’s Greatest Shave community event, hosted here at our school. CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE! This term will no doubt exceed all of our expectations in various ways, particularly in the area of teaching and learning programs. As a team, our staff are extraordinarily committed to refining practices that will extend student’s learning and wellbeing outcomes. We are working closely with our Early Action for Success (EAfS) Instructional Leader, Amanda Miller, to hone in on literacy and numeracy assessment data to create targeted areas of focus for each and every student. This term we will continue to spend allocated time in our Outdoor Learning Hub, with Aboriginal culture being a focus this term, sustainability in Term 3, and transitions in Term 4. Thank you to all who participated in our learning ecosystem interviews and surveys – the feedback will be analysed and used to enhance our Outdoor Learning Hub.

    ARHSnsw Railway Luncheon Club Gunning and Beyond Tour 8, 9 and 10 November 2016. Notes on the various stations to be visited Prepared by Stuart Sharp. Note:- Stations are listed in the order in which we expect to visit them, but note that we are not intending to visit Cunningar. The notes for Cunningar are included here as they form part of the history of the region. The various stations are on the following pages. Station Page number Gunning 2 Bowning 14 Binalong 17 Galong 23 Cunningar 36 Cootamundra 47 Cootamundra West 74 Stockinbingal 87 Temora 90 Wallendbeen 97 Demondrille 112 Murrurumbah 120 Harden 182 Yass Junction 310 Yass Town 331 1 GUNNING THE FIRST “CHEAP” STATION ON THE NSW RAIL SYSTEM STANGE BEHAVIOUR – THE STATION OPENING 1875 John Whitton, the Engineer-in-Chief, did something, or rather some things, which were very unusual and he did these at Gunning in 1875. Number one was that he split the construction of the platform and the platform building into two contracts. He issued a contract to one D. Williams for the construction of a supposed 300 feet long platform and a second contract to one Mr Hines for the construction of the platform building. While nothing more is known about either gentlemen and neither built any other railway structures, as far as is known. What was usual or rather became usual was that John Whitton issued these contracts on 6th August, 1875, which was a mere 12 weeks before the opening date on 9th November, 1875. Had the plans only been prepared at that late time? No! Whitton had approved the plans in March, 1875 – six months before he went to tender.
