1 Day free childcare children under 2.

Hi Neighbors!

If you're not aware, there is a government subsidy for children 3 years and older that provides for 20 hours free Early Childhood Education (ECE) care at approved facilities.

Some parents also need care for younger children as they need to get back to work. This would imply that there are family financial pressures involved and it doesn't make sense to us that there's no government support to help those families out.

So, to help our local community we have a special for two days childcare for only $35.00. This special applies to children under 2 years old.

Feel free to let someone who needs this know, and if you or a friend are really stuck then come and talk to us at Grow and see how we can help.

Do you know what sick leave you’re entitled to?

With winter bugs doing the rounds, it’s worth knowing what the rules are about sick leave. So what are you entitled to?

With winter bugs doing the rounds, it’s worth knowing what the rules are about sick leave. So what are you entitled to?

• In general you’re entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave each year after you’ve worked for your employer for 6 months.
• You can accumulate any unused sick leave up to a total of 20 days.
• Sick leave can be used when you’re sick or when you need to be off work to look after someone else who is sick or injured (your partner, child, or someone who relies on you for care).
• Even if you’re a part-time or casual worker, you’re still entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave a year (once you’ve worked for 6 months continuously or for an average of 10 hours per week, and at least one hour in every week or 40 hours in every month).
• Your employer can require you to provide a medical certificate if you’re sick for 3 or more days in a row, and you’ll need to pay to get it. If they want proof of sickness sooner then they will have to pay the costs of getting the proof.

These are the minimum sick leave entitlements. Your employer can agree to give you more.

Check out our website for more information about sick leave and other employment rights and responsibilities. If you’ve got questions get in touch with a CAB near you, call us on 0800 367 222 (0800 FOR CAB), or contact us online.

It's a lovely looking grey and white cat, it's on the left hand verge of the road about 500m before the roundabout. I rang TCC but as it's technically on a State Highway they can't retrieve it. I would have picked it up but didn't feel it was a safe place to stop in the rain with a child in the car. There are houses backing onto that part of the road on both sides so I think there's a good chance it's someone's pet.
