We would all be noticing the coolness that is now setting in across the late afternoons and evenings. As I sit here enjoying the afternoon sun, with a blanket over my toes, I must say this time of year is truly beautiful. With the freshness in the mornings and the gorgeously sunny days. We are very lucky!

We have a jam-packed edition for you this month, with plenty of local-stories and information to keep you well informed and ‘up-on’ the latest happenings in and around your community.

Of course, May is the month of making the most of time with MUM or those dearest and nearest to you. Go on, spoil her! Check out our delicious treats for Mum on page 16, in ‘What’s Cooking’.

The discussion surrounding Sydney’s second airport has been very topical recently, as is expected. Read the latest from our council on page 7.

This month, ‘Do for ONE what you wish you could do for EVERYONE’’.

Enjoy your community news.

Already customers are being treated to some fresh new surprises, with an increased food range in the new lunch menu, special promotions and bundles (including $6.50 for banana bread or muffi n and coff ee) and plans to bring back student discounts and early bird specials.

“We want to keep Gloria Jeans as a loved and fun place to be that is a family friendly environment” said Chirag.

Be sure to drop by and see the team today. They have a nice, warm drink waiting for you now. Visit them at, Shop 14 Glenmore Park Town Centre, or contact them by phone on 4737 8999.

Plant a Tree for Your MumPenrith City Council is

inviting local residents to plant a tree for their Mum, this Mother’s Day.

This special community event will be held on Sunday 11 May 2014 at Regentville.

Mayor Ross Fowler OAM said Trees for Mum was a wonderful opportunity to recognise the importance mothers play in our society.

“For those who have lost their Mum, it’s a chance to remember and create a living memorial,” Cr Fowler said.

“For those blessed to still have their Mum with them, planting a tree is a lovely way to support the environment and celebrate their relationship.”

Trees for Mum is a national event supported by Landcare Australia, which encourages all ages to celebrate their mum and the beauty of life.

To date more than 20,000 people have participated in the program, at over 100 planting sites across Australia.

All trees and plants are Australian natives and planting supports the Bushcare initiatives in the local area.

Participants should wear long trousers, a long-sleeve shirt and closed-toe shoes. A hat and sunscreen are also recommended.

Trees for Mum will be held at Gibbes Street, off Spencer Street, Regentville on Sunday 11 May from 9am to Midday. Access is 600 metres south of the M4 and Mulgoa Road intersection. It’s free to take part, but to ensure Council has enough plants for everyone, you must register. Call 4732 8088 or email [email protected].

Jesus Brings New LifeNo matter who we are, there are times

when we wish our life could be diff erent – better. Perhaps one of the most striking and encouraging claims of the Bible is that Jesus Brings New Life. Why does the Bible say this? It is because for people who follow Jesus, who listen to him, trust his promises and his direction for

life, will actually begin to live life the way Jesus intended. We will be living the best life – new life!

At Glenmore Park Anglican Church (GPAC) in May and June, we would love you to join us on Sundays where we will be spending time looking at the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Church in the Greek City of Thessalonica. Here is a sample; “We always thank God for all of you, mentioning you in our prayers. We continually remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labour prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

It has been the experience of Christian people since Jesus, as well as those of us who belong to GPAC, that faith in Jesus, knowledge of God’s love towards us, and hope in God’s promises have been a powerful force to build and sustain this new life that Jesus brings.

As we spend time looking at this letter, you might be surprised (and encouraged!) to see how much the Bible has to say about all of life. Among many things, we will be having talks on hope and joy, about standing fi rm in the face of suff ering, even talks about being confi dent in the face of death and having a healthy

understanding of sex and relationships and caring for those in need – an amazing range of real life, all helping us live the new life Jesus Brings! We would love to see you! Rev John Lavender

Next Generation of City LeadersFuture politicians have a chance to dabble in local government

– in a competition for local primary school pupils.As part of Local Government Week 2014, Penrith City Council

is giving lucky students the opportunity to be Junior Mayor or Junior Councillors and take part in a mock Council meeting.

Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler OAM said the competition provides a unique opportunity for primary students to learn about the role of Council.

“We’re giving one lucky student the chance to be Junior Mayor and 14 others the chance to be Junior Councillors,” Cr Fowler said. “I wish there had been a competition like this when I was growing up. It’s a fantastic opportunity for our young residents.”

To enter the competition, students need to outline two things they would do to make the City of Penrith a better place to live, if they were Mayor.

Entries must fi t on one A4 piece of paper, or be an audio visual fi le. They can be a story, poem, an artwork or comic strip.

“I’m looking forward to seeing the entries,” Cr Fowler said.“We’re always looking for good advice from the community – no

matter the age of residents.” Entries must be submitted by Friday 30 May 2014.

The winning Junior Mayor and Junior Councillors need to be available to attend introductory meetings at Council’s Civic Centre on Monday 16 June and Monday 14 July 2014. The mock Council meeting will be held on Monday 11 August 2014.

For more details on how to enter, go to penrithcity.nsw.gov.au.

Here is last year’s mock Council meeting in action. The 2014 competition is now open.

True LeadersFollowing on from my last article about

leadership, we ought to recognise that there is something very wrong with our world when we draw the focus towards political leadership.

We live in a desperate world, a world where our democratic systems are failing the

vulnerable, where Liberal Democracy and the dream for every citizen to make their own future has dimmed under the capitalist mindset. We are no longer a welfare state that protected the underprivileged and took responsibility to advocate with honesty and integrity, what was best for its people and where unions were a positive balance that negotiated the best conditions for workers.

At a global level, this is a desperate world we live in. We live in a world where 1 in 7 human beings are going hungry, that’s 925 million people and 50% of the global population who are living on less than $2.50 per day. Contrast this reality with nations like Australia which throws 4 and a half million tonnes of food away every year (7.8Billion dollars) and where the annual wastage of the USA alone is 40 million tonnes which could end world poverty instantly. We need honest and true leaders today.

In the New Testament letter of St Matthew, Jesus speaks these words about leadership: Matthew 11:29 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will fi nd rest for your souls.

Good leaders bind themselves to the needs of others like the yoke Jesus mentions, they help the poor and vulnerable because their hearts want to serve others and because they see equal value in all human beings. Jesus is the quintessential leader because he shows his love for people by giving over his life so they may have life to the full. Life to the full is very diff erent to consumerism, because it speaks deeply to the lost and empty heart which can’t fi nd peace in the consumer world, but fi nds fulfi lment and joy in and through a relationship with this great

leader Jesus.Join us every Sunday at 9:30am in the Lighthouse Theatre,

Penrith Anglican College and know this life Jesus speaks about.Rev Mark Bonnici

Nepean’s Football Season Kicks Off !enthusiasm into making weekend football an enjoyable and entertaining experience for all the players and their families in our community.” Tanya said.

This year’s football season in the Nepean marks the start of a new era in offi ciating for one of the largest organised recreational sports in our community, with the Nepean Referees Group (NRG) taking over responsibility for refereeing football in the district. Their 100th referee was signed up a few weeks ago and their active recruiting drive adds confi dence that they will surpass 150 registered referees by the season’s end.

“We are really excited and thankful for the opportunity to referee football at the grassroots level for our 32 affi liated clubs in the Nepean district. We’ve been training solidly during the pre-season and without the NRG at the helm I don’t think we would have this opportunity presented to us.” said new NRG recruits Reagan Chapman and Luke Hammond.

Jim Warburton, a senior NRG referee noted that even though the wet weather conditions were playing havoc with the start of the football season’s schedule, the NRG was able to supply 100% coverage for the football matches played over the fi rst weekend of the regular season. “This is a signifi cant milestone for the NRG” Jim said.

“I wish everyone in my electorate and in the Nepean district an enjoyable and fruitful football season ahead” said Tanya Davies MP.

For more information about registering to play for your local football club, or if you’re interested in becoming a referee, please visit the following websites at http://www.nepeanfootball.com.au/index.php

Community Needs More Detail on Airport

Now that a decision to build Sydney’s second airport at Badgerys Creek has been announced, we wait for more detailed plans to be revealed.

Penrith Mayor Ross Fowler OAM said that Council had made numerous calls for details on the range and scope of the airport to be revealed so that proper planning for infrastructure could be started in earnest.

“Council conducted a community opinion survey recently and found 7 out of 10 local residents indicated that Penrith would be better off with the development of the airport at Badgerys Creek,” Cr Fowler said.

“Council has consistently called for more information on the second Sydney airport proposal and these results are indicative of a community which is awaiting this information.”

Prime Minister Tony Abbott last month announced more than $3 billion will be spent on roads in Western Sydney to support the city’s second airport, and that is a good start,” Cr Fowler said.

“There will undoubtedly be economic benefi ts from the airport, but those benefi ts must accrue to the local community as well as the region and NSW,” he said.

“In order for the benefi ts to fl ow to the people of Penrith, proper infrastructure provision must be made to support the airport and Western Sydney.

“There will also be social and environmental impacts and these also need to be addressed.”

Cr Fowler said that when more detail on the Badgerys Creek airport and its associated infrastructure is released, Council will be able to inform and engage further with our community.

A number of local residents from Glenmore Park & Surrounds attended the Glenmore Park Residents Group ‘Airport Meeting’ last month, held at the Glenmore Park Community Centre.

In attendance were Mayor Ross Fowler OAM, Fiona Scott MP - Member for Lindsay, Clr Jim Aitken OAM and Clr Bernard Bratusa.

A number of discussion points were raised, questions answered and items documented for further investigation and response by the relevant parties.

The evening was informative and it is likely that another meeting will be scheduled in due course. When a date has been set, information will be published in the Glenmore Gazette or you can contact John c/- the Glenmore Park Residents Group on 0417 277 393 for more information as it arises.

The community of Mulgoa is buzzing with the exciting changes that have taken place to Super Cellars. New owner Balvindar Collins is thrilled with the fresh challenge, “The people of Mulgoa are very friendly and supportive of local business”.

Brand new automatic electronic doors have been installed, replacing the old push doors, making it more inviting for customers.

The business will be off ering delivery to venues for social functions and events. Independently owned, they also plan to open up the drive-thru option of the cellars, making it quicker and easier to buy.

Trading hours will remain the same, 9am to 9pm on Monday to Saturday and 10am to 9pm on Sundays. Why not drop by the next time you’re planning an event. The team are more than happy to meet and provide the community needs locally.

Preaching: Inspiring People in their Discipleship

The word “preaching” conjures up negative feelings for many people. We often say we are being “preached at” when someone speaks to us in an authoritative

or supercilious manner, making us feel small and unimportant. Preaching is popularly associated with long-winded and boring diatribes which recite a litany of things we shouldn’t be doing, highlighting our inadequacies and urging us to do better. In short, we can say confi dently that preaching gets pretty bad press. This is unhelpful for those of us for whom preaching is a signifi cant part of our lives!

But preaching doesn’t have to be long-winded, boring or patronising. In fact, it ought to be quite the opposite! Preaching ought to be interesting and engaging, seeking to inspire those who hear it so that they will be encouraged in their lives as disciples of Jesus. There is nothing less likely to inspire people to live more like Jesus than preaching which insults them or sends them to sleep!

Of course, preaching is never done in isolation from the scriptures in which God is present. Likewise, scripture is not so meaningful or fruitful isolated from interpretation. What is often known as a sermon is called a homily in the Catholic tradition and its purpose is to “break open the word.” This means that the homily, usually delivered by an ordained minister, makes the scriptures meaningful to those hearing them, giving them the inspiration and ability to apply the Word of God to their day-to-day living.

At a Sunday Mass those present will hear a great deal of scripture. The fi rst half of a Catholic Mass begins with a reading from the Old Testament, then moves to one of the beautiful Psalms, followed by a reading from one of the letters in the New Testament and concludes with a reading from one of the four Gospels. If there were no homily then those present at the Mass may well enjoy the beautiful words but miss the opportunity to allow those words of God to bear fruit to their fullest extent in their Christian living.

So preaching is not something to baulk at or fear. Certainly, some homilies are challenging and may cause us, (including the one delivering it!), to feel some discomfort as we realise our shortcomings as Christian disciples and that we are, indeed, sinners in need of God’s merciful love. But then, if we are never

asked to face up to our faults, what motivation have we to correct them? A skilled homilist will never focus solely on the negative but will always balance it with the positive message of Jesus, inspiring us to more fully embrace the salvation and joy that he off ers. If people feel so inspired then the preacher will have done his job well.

Our parish is a vibrant and active Christian community. If you would like to join us, particularly those who may not attend our Masses regularly or new residents in the area, we would love to welcome you here as part of our friendly, inclusive and family-oriented community. Our Mass times and contact details are as follows:

Members of the NSW Doll Collectors’ Club manage the Valuations Table. You can bring along your childhood doll or bear and fi nd out the history and the value of your treasured possession for a gold coin donation.

When the doors open at 10am there is always a line of enthusiastic buyers ready to hit the stalls and be fi rst to buy the pick of the handmade items for sale.

One of the highlights for this year’s show will be a workshop conducted by International Award Winning Doll Artist, Catherine Mather. This workshop - Millinery for Fashion Dolls – will be on Sunday commencing at 12:30pm. Students will have the opportunity to complete either a Victorian antique style riding top hat or Steam Punk inspired top hat to fi t a 16” to 18” fashion doll.

Proceeds from this show go to supporting Zonta Service Projects which are focussed on initiating and supporting programs for women in the areas of health, welfare, educational opportunities, economic and professional status.

Raffl e tickets will be available at the door for $2 each. All proceeds of the raffl e will support the Leukaemia Foundation. Prizes include a dressed handmade porcelain doll, an antique doll, a handmade quilt and a handmade bear.

Soul Matters Recently I joined a group from our

church community who did a backyard blitz on a home in Yellow Rock that was aff ected by the bush fi res. After 10 hours of hard yakka restoring gardens and building a retaining wall for relative strangers, our souls were dancing! We

enjoyed the peace that comes when you know that there is nothing better you could have done with your time. We felt alive and happy. Why?

This little story prompts a question about how we fi nd happiness and fulfi lment or a true sense of wellbeing. We can all identify things that we enjoy doing, like having a cold beer after hard work, physical exercise, chatting with friends, or achieving something. But there is a deeper happiness and sense of wellbeing that can be found in a deeper idea about how human beings tick.

The Bible teaches that we are made in the image of God. This doesn’t mean that we can be God, but that we are made with the potential to express God’s life, or genuine love. I’m not referring to our often shallow ideas about love, but the sacrifi cing of ourself, our time, and what we own for the wellbeing of others. I mean the sort of love a mother expresses to protect and care for her baby. And the sort of love profoundly expressed when Jesus Christ sacrifi ced his life to save us from the judgment hovering over us because of our sins.

When we love at all, we are expressing a part of God’s image. The more genuinely we express love, the more we feel the inner wellbeing of doing that for which we were made. We are in

our skin. That’s why we feel happy and more complete when we selfl essly contribute to the wellbeing of others. Our soul experiences the rightness, purity and nobility of it because it is consistent with our DNA – the image of God. We come alive like a fi sh that has been stranded on land and fi nally fi nds its way back to water. Our soul breathes, because like fi sh were made for water, we were made to express God’s life through genuine love.

We hit a snag here because love doesn’t come naturally to us. In fact our natural bent is selfi sh and at odds with God’s image. To experience a dancing soul and to please God we must change and learn to genuinely love. And it is for this reason that Jesus Christ calls us to follow him.

Rate Hikes Looming – Time to Fix?

Stuart Ayres MP, Member for Penrith invites community members to view a new animation showing the future Nepean River Green Bridge at Penrith which aims to improve safety and access for pedestrians and cyclists in the area.

“The Nepean River Green Bridge will provide cyclists and pedestrians with a safe crossing while off ering minimal disruption to the historic rowing course,” Stuart Ayres said.

“A new fl y-through animation has been developed to off er community members a view of the new bridge alignment.

“We thank the community for their feedback to the project to date and welcome community members to view the new animation on the Roads and Maritime Services website.

“The animation highlights the new alignment based on community feedback where it was determined the best place for the eastern landing was at the old Log Cabin property”

“A Review of Environmental Factors is being prepared for the project in the coming months and the community will be kept informed as the project progresses.

“Building work for the bridge is expected to start later this year.

“For project information contact the project team via email on [email protected] or by calling 1800 822 486,”

added Stuart Ayres. To view the new animation visit www.rms.nsw.gov.au/roadprojects.

Thanks to the Global Financial Crisis we have been enjoying record low interest rates. In fact up until recently many Economists were tipping another one or two rate cuts for 2014 but a booming property market and a recovering economy now has them pointing towards interest rate increases as early as August.

In fact, The Australian Financial Review said this “The offi cial cash rate has been tipped to rise by almost two percentage points… A survey of 32 Economic Analysts found more than half expect interest rates to rise within a year”.

But do not despair, there is a way that you can hang onto those low rates well after the Reserve Bank has pulled the trigger on increases. By switching your Home Loan to a Fixed Rate rather than Variable you can lock in a low rate for years to come. We currently have more than 150 diff erent Fixed Rate Home Loans to choose from all with rates well below 5.00%.

But you’ll need to move before the interest rates do because it’s always the low fi xed rates that disappear fi rst. Call us for a free Home Loan Health Check and Comparison. We can switch you to a fi xed rate with your current Bank or fi nd you a great new deal.

PARENTS CORNERArticle by: Narelle Smith (Family Worker) NepeanStudent-Wellbeing Worker – Mulgoa Public School Nepean Community & Neighbourhood ServicesPh: 0409 986 121 Centre: 4721 8520Blog: http://handsheartsminds.wordpress.com

Frequently I write this article based on what I’ve been talking with parents about during the month. This month, I have been talking a lot about some of the most basic parenting tools for your toolkit which are also highly eff ective. They all come from the Triple P parenting group. Tool number 1

Remind your children of ‘what to do’ rather than ‘what not to do’. Instead of saying “don’t run”, say “walk”. Instead of saying “don’t hit”, say “hands to self”.When you use the negative, ie, “run”, “hit”, children don’t hear the “don’t”, they just hear “run” and “hit”. Tool number 2

Descriptive praise is very powerful. Saying ‘good boy/girl’ makes your kids praise junkies. They love it, but they never quite understand what they’ve done well. Descriptive praise tells children what they are doing well.

Examples, “thanks for picking up your socks, and putting them in the wash basket, that helps me out heaps”, “I really like how you kept going on that task until you got it just the way you wanted it”, You thought really carefully about that before you did it, I admire that”. Tool number 3

The more attention you pay to children’s behaviours, the more of them they will do. This is based on 40 years of research, it’s not earth mother or hippie-la-la stuff . So, if you pay a lot of attention to your child’s negative behaviours, what do you think will happen? Yes, they will do more of them. Think about it – you would hate being reminded of all of the times you stuff up – doesn’t make you feel good about yourself does it?

Choose one of your child’s behaviours that drives you bonkers. Got it? OK, now think of the opposite behaviour. Now start paying more attention to the opposite behaviour (the positive one) with descriptive praise.

An example, if your child speaks too loudly, then instead of rousing on him for being too loud, give him descriptive praise every time he speaks quietly.Tool number 4

If you call your child ‘naughty’ often enough, he or she will prove you right. And that goes for any other negative name that you call your child – clumsy, hopeless, lazy, etc.

Words are powerful, especially when they are coming from you. Children internalise the negatives we say to them or call them. Say them often enough, and you are digging a pit of shame for your child so deep and so wide, it will take them a lifetime to crawl out of it. Shaming a child causes mental health problems later in life.

Super Nanny did parenting a great disservice. Get rid of that ‘naughty’ corner/chair/mat. Do it right now!!! Call it a ‘calm down zone’ or ‘chill-out chair’. Be creative but make it positive.

Remove ‘naughty’ and ‘bad’ from your vocabulary. And now for your challenge…Put these 4 tools into action at your place, and see how things change for the better.

But wait, there’s more! If you can’t get to the 6 week Triple P parenting group, I am off ering the Triple P seminars in May. Come to one or all of them.12th May – The power of positive parenting

HEALTH MATTERSArticle by: Rhonda RolfeHarmonising HealthPh: 0430 047 421 E: [email protected]: www.harmonisinghealth.com.au

Staying HydratedWith the onset of winter it is easy to forget that our body still

needs to be hydrated. Maybe you do not feel hot and thirsty however your body consistently requires water to maintain health, no matter what the season. Exposure to heaters such as air conditioners, gas, oil, electric and wood heaters has a very drying eff ect on the body. The moisture lost needs to be replaced.

The human body is approximately 60% water however this varies depending on age, sex, adiposity & hydration level.

Your organs, muscles, ligaments, tendons and joints all need water to function properly. Water keeps your skin supple, helps to maintain correct mineral and electrolyte balance, helps to prevent hair from drying and splitting & helps to maintain the acid/alkaline balance in your body. Your blood is made up of approximately 60% water.

Once you start to feel thirsty, you have already lost around 2-3% of your body’s water. Mental performance and physical coordination start to become impaired before thirst kicks in, typically around 1% dehydration. It is quite possible that if you are feeling a bit light headed or you are just not thinking clearly, you may be dehydrated.

Water –structured water, fi ltered water, alkaline water etc. drinking water, whole house systems -the choices are endless – make sure you do your research. Whatever you decide, remember you need to stay hydrated.

I’m sure you will agree that some relationships are hard work. It seems that we are programmed to remember the times people have hurt us or done the ‘wrong’ thing by us rather than the many times that we have enjoyed their company. We then go on and ‘demonize’ people - gossiping that they have no good in them at all.

In truth none of us are ‘all good’ and none of us are ‘all bad’ Instead of being all white or all black, we are grey - a mixture of getting it right with others and also hurting those we love as well. We take the high moral ground and cut these people out of our life. And if it happens to be a family member, this rift might not be able to fi xed in one’s life time. Further it has repercussions on other’s in the family who are not directly involved.

In truth we humans are not very good at loving. So a challenge to each of us to make the world a better place is to only say things about others that we are prepared to say to their face. A wise person passed this onto me as a guideline line to use when speaking about others.

1. Is what you are going to say about the person true?2. Is what you are going to say about the other necessary

to say?3. Is what you are going to say about the other kind?If you can answer yes to these three questions, then speak

about the other person. If what you are going to say doesn’t reach this criteria, then safe guard your integrity and the relationship with the other, and make the world a kinder, gentler, forgiving place and keep your mouth closed.

KEEPING FIT WITH Rj Get a Full Body Work Out, FAST!

When trying to lose weight or get in shape, the aim for most people is to build muscle whilst losing fat. The best type of exercises to achieve these goals are compound exercises. You will fi nd them at the core of many functional training programs that are around today.

Compound exercises work several muscle groups at one time and are multi-joint movements. Some classic examples are; barbell squats, deadlifts, lunges, kettlebell swings and burpees, just to name a few.

There are hundreds of compound exercises out there to choose from. They are highly eff ective because they require several parts of your body to use large amounts of energy at one time. Most compound exercises can also be performed with or without weights or resistance. This makes them ideal for both beginners and also people that are trying to increase their strength.

Compound exercises are a great way to get a full body work out, FAST!

Happy Training!Rj Tierney (owner) Pure Fitness Penrith Ph: 4732 2884rj@purefi tness.net.au www.purefi tness.net.au

London CallingThe mods and rockers answering the best of 1960s British Style

The Lindy Charm School for Girls and the Gallery have teamed up again to bring you a series of tantalizing, engaging and fun Vintage Styling Workshops to broaden your looks for 2014.. Last year we covered the 40's and 50's and now let us introduce our new hands on workshops covering the 30's and the 60's with a geographical twist.. – Shanghai Styling and London Calling.

Inspired by Will and Kate’s visit and the Queens’s Birthday celebration the Gallery has programmed a special regal styling session. Grab your Go Go Boots, shift dresses and eyeliner and take a trip back to the best of the 60s retro and on trend looks for today. The Lindy Charm School for Girls will take you on a road trip of the fashion styles, hair and makeup and how you can achieve these looks today with little or no fuss.

The mid 1950s to the early 1960s era was a time of transition. The wholesome mindset of the early 50s was being taken over by the revolutionary attitude of the mid 60’s. Women began to show off their sexier sides while still holding on to most of their morally rigid ideals. With the introduction of shorter hairstyles, makeup increasingly emphasized the eyes. The doe-eyed look of mascara-outlined eyes with slightly elongated corners was accentuated by thickly pencilled eyebrows.

The mods and rockers were two confl icting British youth subcultures of the early to mid-1960s. The rocker subculture was centered on motorcycling, and their appearance refl ected that. The mod subculture (modernist) was centered on fashion and music, and many mods rode scooters. Mods wore suits (often tailor-made) and other clean-cut outfi ts, and preferred 1960s music genres such as soul, rhythm and blues, ska and beat music. Mods favoured trendy, "hyper-cool" styles, a bit like the hipsters of today.

As Chrissy Keepence from the Charm school states I believe that vintage fashions, charm, etiquette, manners, poise and posture never really go out of fashion but rather are overshadowed by current trends and commercial viabilities. I think it is the timeless elegance and romantic notions of the past we like to hang on to, as our worlds are so complex, rushed, competitive and shambolic at times.

The workshop is open to women from fourteen years and beyond, come solo and meet new friends or plan a day out with a girlfriend, mother, or daughter for an afternoon of old-school fun. These 3 hour sessions provide simply fabulous, insightful and hands-on lessons in perfecting your vintage inspired looks and reviving the beauty, fashion and charm of women as they lived in decade’s gone by. Participants will learn is how to apply modern day make up with the tips and tricks to help you recreate vintage inspired looks in no time at all.

Time To get IN2CRICKETCricket NSW in conjunction with Penrith Indoor Sports and

Recreation Centre have developed an in2CRICKET program to showcase the fun and excitement that cricket entails.

The in2CRICKET program is Cricket Australia’s entry-level cricket program, which provides girls and boys with an introduction to cricket in a safe learning environment with focus on enjoyment and skill development. All activities are inclusive, action-packed and most importantly, fun!

Cricket NSW Development Offi cer and program coordinator Nicholas Toscan has grown up with the program “I was fi rst introduced to cricket via the Milo ‘Have a Go’ program, which is now known as ‘Milo in2CRICKET’ and the fun and excitement it passes on to all participants is still present all these years later. I still have my medallion in the trophy cabinet at home!”

Boys and girls of all ages are welcome to attend and participate in this new and exciting initiative with no prior cricketing experience required.

A FREE ‘Come and Try’ session will be held on Friday the 16th of May, with the 5 week program commencing on Friday the 23rd of May to Friday the 20th of June (4pm – 5pm).

The cost is $70 per participant which also includes an in2CRICKET participant pack containing a bat, ball, hat, water bottle, plus more as well as a Sydney Thunder show-bag.

All registrations that occur on or before Friday the 16th of May will go into the draw to win a ‘Sydney Thunder and Milo Prize Pack’. For further information please contact Nicholas Toscan on 0423 605 413.
