Last month’s column was penned in the middle of a gloriously balmy Indian summer.  This time I stare at the unfriendly keyboard while I huddle over a radiator, the westerly howls, the garden furniture bangs about and the grass shrivels.  Sheez!  Don’t old bones feel the cold!

It’s been a quiet month at playgroup as we often take a break over the school holidays when many of our families go away, or are just too busy looking after their school aged children, to attend playgroup. 

We are back at it now though, meeting every Monday and Wednesday morning with lots of games and craft for the little ones. 

We would like to thank our fantastic community for supporting our Wimbledon Family Fun Day.

Technology is improving at a rapid rate – and so it is with the advances in smoke detection in households.  

All smoke detectors, up until recently, have been designed and manufactured without consideration for those with hearing impairment.

At the end of last term the Dayboro State School Choir visited the Dayboro Conversation Club.  The students performed three of their latest songs.  The choir was conducted both by their Music Teacher, Mrs Baskin, and one of the student music leaders.  The students sang beautifully with such a happy and fun energy.  The students were true professionals.   When their backing music didn’t play they just sang a cappella.
