Dress kids for the weather
Even though it’s not supposed to be particularly cold, with this cyclone, I’d recommend, if sending kids to school, send them with long pants over shorts and skirts (tuck skirts and dresses into pants). That way, if they get wet, they can just take their long pants off at school and hang them over their bags, and not have to spend half the day in wet shorts or skirts.
Coming home isn’t so bad, as they can get changed at home, but having to sit with a wet lower half is not great. An extra pair of socks in their bags can also come in handy, given most sneakers aren’t waterproof, so even if their shoes get wet, they can stay indoors with dry socks on.

Will be present at the meeting
Are you concerned about this and if so, you are invited to
attend a meeting with the department who consented on
this new Crematorium. As residents and ratepayers, we
feel we were never given the opportunity to speak up
about this major decision so now is your chance.
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
Do not let our beautiful village be ruined of its uniqueness
forever by a bad decision made on our behalf. A more
appropriate decision would be to have it out of a residential area or with appropriate car parking and a place for mourners to congregate.
