Meeting Guest Speaker CalendarMonday May 21 - Judie Bainbridge, River Nile Learning Centre Meetings at:2 Rochester Road, Canterbury Every Monday - Dinner meeting Last Meeting:Last Meeting: Penelope Whiteley - “Aging Younger” This week we saw the art of aging disgracefully, a balance of right food and right attitude and an aptitude of taking stock of your life to congratulate and celebrate what we have achieved. A fantastic week this week, after three days up at Bendigo with Michael Chong and my daughter Grace. Looking after some heavily disabled kids made me again realise how blessed I am with four healthy children who are somewhat nearly independent (to a point). Yet it was refreshing to see examples of great people in those teachers that accompanied those kids from Glenallen School: feeding, clothing, showering, changing, putting to bed, those kids. They weren’t your average teachers. They were super teachers and those kids where super special and not in the way they were disabled but in the ways they were not. An amazing testament to both the teachers and the students. As I mentioned I’d like to investigate a way we could further enhance Camp Getaway making it better serving to disabled people by looking into funding a hoist permanently based at the camp and making some of the beds disabled friendly, with anti rollout bars on the side of the beds. This could be as simple or complex as we want it, but I believe a small amount of lateral thinking could solve the problem. This weekend is District Assembly and also the Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal on Sunday. Thanks to those who put their hands up to help out for the Red Shield Appeal. Don’t think don’t hope do something Kind Regards |
