Welcome PM
Malcolm Turnbull
Winning the
leadership
from an
increasing side
lined opponent
was most
probably
the easiest part
of our new PM’s
efforts to finally
get the top job.
‘New PM – Old Policies and Malcolm is first
and foremost about Malcolm’ were the
predictable first comments by LABOR and
the GREENS, but it somewhat characterises
the situation the coalition is in.
Yes, a better salesman and a sleek approach
can help, but the battle is not won in the
seat of Wentworth, there is Blacktown and
beyond… there is Victoria, South Australia
and Queensland, not to forget the great
deal of conservative supporters,
who do not believe in political coups.
Then there is the time factor, taking the
Christmas/Holiday period into account,
which leaves at best 7 months, not much
time to do what is really needed - a big
picture and a bold plan for the future and
the guts to challenge and/or win over the
opposition with plan not even they can say
not to, because the public is for it!
Shorten might fall seemingly short now in
the eyes of the Australian electorate, but
the great helping hand of the unions cannot
be underestimated, besides the possibility
that he and his party (helped by the Greens)
might come up with some appealing long
term plans how our society could live, work
and play?
You got your work cut out, mate Malcolm,
and we wish you well on your journey to
think 24/7 what is best for all of us.

said, “We have loved Bronte House for as long

“Just like the real Neil Diamond”
A show not to be missed
Sat 26th September | $25 per ticket
Available from the Club reception or pay
& book over the phone
WEEKLY HOROSCOPE
ARIES Stand firm in your boundaries, Aries. There
may be someone you need to be a little clearer and a little
more direct with, try to use tact, but also, make it completely
understood that your time is valuable and they should not be
wasting it. Try not to let them have it too hard, but, perhaps
it's time to think about cutting that tie.
TAURUS Take extra special precaution with
everything, how you say things, how you do things, how you
are thinking. How you think tends to become how you act:
so, stifle those ah, less than pure thoughts about someone
before you decide to act on a very fun, but bad idea.
Flirtation is intense with some, but may be misconstrued.
On the work front, you might find yourself needing to outline
things more clearly.
GEMINI Be incredibly careful, Gemini. Mercury in
Retrograde is just cramming your feet into your mouth from
Thursday on. Unfortunately, these verbal mishaps won't be
seen as admirably brutally honest, they won't be seen as
insightful or bold: they'll be seen as mean and hurtful. Take
great care to mind your words, and you will find they make
the changes you want to see, rather than some you don't
want.
CANCER You may just feel a little bit annoyed at
others this week and questioning what the heck they're
doing in your life, Cancer. Mood wise, you're going to be a bit
on the darker, perky side. You're going to be feeling a little
less tolerant of annoyances- and a whole lot more witty. Be
careful what you say, this week and to who you say it.
LEO Have you been noticing that the littlest tech issues
have been popping up and just making things a royal pain?
The Universe is in fact, tapping you on the shoulder, trying
to let you know: there are places where you can trim the fat,
but, when you go with the cheaper option, purely because it
is: you're going to have to put out so many fires that it's no
longer really that inexpensive.
VIRGO If you have been considering making big
changes, wait. Take time to plan, now, Virgo. This for you
guys, has been a year of endings- sometimes explosive
and new beginnings as a result. As you go through this
week, you might get caught up in a little daydreaming, a
little nostalgia. It may catch you off guard, make you cry,
make you think, and even make you smile. Give yourself
permission to cry, to grieve and mourn your losses- but also,
take the time to consider those victories, both large and
small. You've already overcome so much.
LIBRA If you're starting to notice that others around
you seem a bit more grouchy, Libra, it may be time to
consider some of what they say. Dig a little deeper, and go
a bit introspective to explore the challenges lobbed at your
feet. If you are feeling unhappy with certain aspects of
your life, or somewhat insecure: do not attempt to solve the
problems of others this week.
SCORPIO If you're feeling just a bit more driven,
and maybe even a little darker than usual this year so far,
Scorpio, it's understandable. Use Pluto's powerful influence
to transform those things in your life you don't like and
aren't working for you.
SAGITTARIUS Twists, turns and surprises may
be bubbling up this week for you, Sagittarius. Don't worry,
this putting out fires phase of things will soon be over and a
much smoother, much more beneficial energy will begin to
flow as creative minds come up with some awesome things.
Collaborate and really, give it all you've got. You are on the
way to something so much bigger than you know, just yet.
CAPRICORN It's time to take charge and get
everyone on the same page, and to do so as tactfully as
possible. Look at the areas in your life where you are
strongest, and encourage that. Where improvements can be
made, make them- but in those areas that are lost causes: let
them fall by the wayside without pushing.
AQUARIUS You may have a small list of things
to work on now that the introspection of your moods has
taken you some unexpected places, Aquarius. Think of this
last week of the retrograde like your own personal End
of the Year- only, instead of resolutions, you'll be making
revolutions when it finally goes direct! It'll be go time, then.
Plan to go big or go home.
PISCES Rather than struggle against your moods, why
not take this week to look into where they're stemming from.
Don't be the person who ends something meaningful over a
small thing, dig deep to determine what big thing makes it
seem worse. On all fronts- think on this deeply but do not act
on anything. Just keep thinking: you're good at it, and now is
certainly a good time to ruminate.

will benefit from brushing once or twice
a week and snuggles on the couch are
mandatory.
Maisie is available to adopt from the
Cat Protection Society for $150. She has

China Set To Open World's
Longest And Highest
Glass-Bottom Bridge
A bridge too far? China set to open the most
terrifying walkway in the world, stretching a
quarter-of-a-mile (0.4km) across a canyon at
a dizzying height of 980 ft (298m) ... and it’s
made of GLASS!
The Zhangjiajie skywalk is set to open in July
hovering over a 980 ft drop.
If you are terrified
of heights you would be advised to stay well
away from China’s latest attraction.
The Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon skywalk will
hover over a nail-biting 980 ft drop and is set
to smash records to be the world's longest and
highest glass-bottomed bridge.
The dizzying
footbridge, which spans between two cliffs in
the national park of Zhangjiajie, will be open
to brave tourists in July. More Ships Down Under
Australians’ passion for cruising has fuelled
the nation’s biggest ever summer cruise
season, with a record flotilla of cruise ships
sailing Down Under over the coming months –
including many newcomers to our shores.
According to peak cruise industry body
Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA)
Australasia, 38 ships from its member cruise
lines will sail in Australian waters this summer,
with an unprecedented eight ships making
their maiden visits to Australia. Over the 201415 summer cruise period, 36 CLIA member
cruise ships visited Australia, including three
ships making their inaugural visit.
CLIA Australasia Commercial Director Brett
Jardine said the growth in maiden ship visits
was another clear indicator of the surging
popularity of cruising. “Cruise lines around
the world are looking for new destinations
and new homeports for their ships – and
Australia is hot property right now,” Mr
Jardine said. “Not only do we have fantastic
ports to visit and great weather, we also have a
population that can’t wait to cruise, and that’s
encouraging more cruise lines to send more
ships our way.”

Oz to Arctic Circle
Holidaymakers will be able to escape winter
and head to the Land of the Midnight Sun
in 2017, when Princess Cruises’ Sea Princess
embarks on the first ever cruise from Australia
to visit the Arctic Circle.
In keeping with Princess Cruises’ focus on
new destinations and experiences for its
guests, the history-making itinerary will take
guests to four ports in the Nordic region and
Arctic Circle as part of a 104-night global
circumnavigation.

Cathay Pacific will say Hola to Madrid
Cathay Pacific will soon extend their European
network with the launch next year of their
new Madrid service.
From 2 June 2016, Cathay Pacific will be
offering the new four times weekly flights to
Madrid, the capital city of Spain, via their Hong
Kong hub. As the only direct link between Hong
Kong and Madrid, the new service will provide
greater convenience for business and leisure
customers travelling between the two cities
and give passengers travelling from Australia
easy access to this key European city.
Strategically located in the Iberian Peninsula,
Madrid is culturally rich yet cosmopolitan.
The vibrant city is an important financial

travellers from around the world thanks to its
historical landmarks and rich heritage. It is also
home to Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid,
two of Europe’s biggest football teams.
Madrid is a sophisticated city with incredible
architecture and fabulous food. Tapas bars
with their enticing food plates and wine
selections are to be seen throughout the city,
as well as a huge variety of indoor and
outdoor restaurants.
One of the easiest ways to see Madrid’s sights,
especially if you are short of time, is by the
double-decker open top Hop-on Hop-off red
bus, with its interconnecting two routes taking
you all over the city.
Madrid is also home to two of the world’s most
famous art galleries, The Prado Museum and
Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum of Art. Several
hours should be set aside to view each of these
magnificent galleries.

Cathay Pacific Chief Executive Ivan Chu said:
"We are delighted to launch flights to Madrid

Network expansion is part of our core strategy,
underpinning our efforts to strengthen Hong
Kong's position as one of the world's great
international aviation hubs. We are committed
to expanding our presence in Europe, having
recently added Manchester, Zurich and
Düsseldorf to our network, and we are now
pleased to offer more choice and convenience
to passengers travelling between Hong Kong
and Madrid.”
Tickets for the new Madrid service are now on

in Cathay Pacific’s Earlybird fares from
Australian cities for 2016.
Other European destinations that Cathay
Pacific currently visit are London, Manchester,
Paris, Amsterdam, Rome, Milan, Frankfurt,
Dusseldorf and Zurich, making Madrid a
welcome addition to this range of exciting

MAYOR'S desk
Goodstart Early Learning Double

Mayor of
Woollahra
Toni Zeltzer
LIGHT RAIL TERMINAL RELOCATED
Randwick Mayor Ted Seng has today
welcomed a decision by Transport Minister
Andrew Constance to relocate the proposed
Randwick light rail terminal from High Cross
Park into a new High Street plaza.
The decision effectively saves High Cross
Park and creates a light rail stop closer to
the Sydney Children’s Hospital and Prince of
Wales Hospital.
“This is an excellent decision by the NSW
Government and they are to be commended,”
Mayor Seng said.
“Well done to the Minister and the light rail
team – they have listened to the community,
undertaken a methodical assessment of the
pros and cons and shown a considered and
best-practice approach by modifying the plans
to deliver a better customer experience for
commuters, residents and shoppers.
“Responsive, considered and progressive is
what I’d call it.”
The amendment to the NSW Government’s
$2.1b CBD and South East Light Rail project
will protect High Cross Park and its 90-yearold war memorial, save trees, reduce parking
loss and reduce construction costs.
“Importantly the change provides an
opportunity to create a new public transport
and pedestrian plaza at the intersection of
High, Avoca and Belmore integrated with the
Randwick town centre,” Mayor Seng said.
“I also want to acknowledge the outstanding
work of our local MP Bruce Notley-Smith who
championed this issue on behalf of
the community.”
Woollahra Honours
Christina Stead
(1902-1983) - Renowned Australian novelist
Last Thursday Council honoured the
renowned Australian novelist Christina
Stead by unveiling a plaque outside her
former home at 14 Pacific Street
Watsons Bay.
With 15 published novels and various
short stories and letters, Stead’s work
won international recognition in her own
lifetime. The household dynamics at her
home in Watson’s Bay played a critical role
in shaping her character, life and writing.
Council is currently calling for nominations
for its community plaque scheme that
acknowledges and honours famous people,

Goodstart Early Learning is opening a new
state-of-the-art centre in Kiaora Place at
Double Bay. Last week I attended a site
inspection with centre manager Nicole Jones
and was more than impressed by the facilities
and learning opportunities for children
who will attend.
There is a very real demand for more childcare
services in the local community and the
opening of this new facility will certainly help
parents and meet these needs. The 0 to 2 year
old section is already booked out.
Goodstart Early Learning is holding an open day
this Saturday 19th September from 10am2pm. Families and local residents are invited to
peruse the facilities and to chat to staff
about what the centre can offer your children.
There will be children’s entertainment
and light refreshments provided.
The centre is located on level 1 at the
new Kiaora Place shopping precinct and is
awaiting final certification before it opens
in October.

NDIS rollout in NSW
announced
September 2015 represents a significant milestone for
people with disability, their families and carers and for the
disability sector in my Electorate of Coogee.
On 16th September 2015, the NSW Premier Mike Baird and
the Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull signed the Bilateral
Agreement outlining how and when the National Disability
Insurance Scheme (NDIS) will roll out in NSW over a two
year period from 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2018.
This is wonderful news on so many levels for everyone in
my electorate. For people with disability, their families and
carers, but also for teachers, to local bus drivers, local area
health workers and our many service providers throughout
the South Eastern Sydney region.
The NDIS delivers confidence to people with disability, their
families and carers so they can look forward to the future.
A future where they can identify their goals and exercise
choice and control over the supports they need to meet
them. A future where they will no longer have to worry
about losing supports based on annual budgets, or only
getting supports because they have reached crisis point.
From 1 July 2016, people living in Hunter New England,
Southern NSW, Central Coast, Northern Sydney, South
Western Sydney, Western Sydney and Nepean Blue
Mountains will be able to access the NDIS.
From 1 July 2017, the NDIS will be in place across the rest
of NSW, and people living in Northern NSW, Mid North
Coast, Sydney, South Eastern Sydney, Illawarra Shoalhaven,
Murrumbidgee, Western NSW and Far West NSW will be able
to access the NDIS.
With so many people coming into the scheme in such a short
time it is important that there is a planned approach to how
they access the NDIS.
The majority of people receiving specialist disability
supports will be able to access the NDIS in the first six
months of each of the two year rollout periods, using a
simplified access process. This includes people who might be
living in supported accommodation, accessing a community
access service such as a day program or case
management service.
People who access specialist disability supports from
time-to-time, or for a short amount of time each week,
will be able to access the NDIS throughout each of the two
year rollout periods. People receiving respite services will
go through a simplified access process. People receiving
community care services will be supported to apply for
access to the NDIS.
Supporting people who are in immediate need of assistance,
and do not currently have support, is important during the
rollout. There is some capacity during rollout for people who
have not previously received supports to access the scheme
when it starts in their local area.
NSW launches
NDIS website
The NSW Government has launched a new website www.
ndis.nsw.gov.au <http://www.ndis.nsw.gov.au> with a
range of information and resources about the rollout of
the NDIS in NSW. We continue to work closely with the
National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA), which is the
Commonwealth agency responsible for operating the NDIS.
Its website can be visited at www.ndis.gov.au.
When the NDIS is fully operational, an estimated 140,000
people in NSW will be able to access supports – this is an
increase of approximately 50,000

Welcome PM
Malcolm Turnbull
Winning the
leadership
from an
increasing side
lined opponent
was most
probably
the easiest part
of our new PM’s
efforts to finally
get the top job.
‘New PM – Old Policies and Malcolm is first
and foremost about Malcolm’ were the
predictable first comments by LABOR and
the GREENS, but it somewhat characterises
the situation the coalition is in.
Yes, a better salesman and a sleek approach
can help, but the battle is not won in the
seat of Wentworth, there is Blacktown and
beyond… there is Victoria, South Australia
and Queensland, not to forget the great
deal of conservative supporters,
who do not believe in political coups.
Then there is the time factor, taking the
Christmas/Holiday period into account,
which leaves at best 7 months, not much
time to do what is really needed - a big
picture and a bold plan for the future and
the guts to challenge and/or win over the
opposition with plan not even they can say
not to, because the public is for it!
Shorten might fall seemingly short now in
the eyes of the Australian electorate, but
the great helping hand of the unions cannot
be underestimated, besides the possibility
that he and his party (helped by the Greens)
might come up with some appealing long
term plans how our society could live, work
and play?
You got your work cut out, mate Malcolm,
and we wish you well on your journey to
think 24/7 what is best for all of us.

Historic artwork finds
home at Woollahra
Woollahra Council Chambers is currently
playing host to the historic artwork ‘Double
Bay 1883’. Painted by celebrated artist and
Archibald Prize winner Arthur Murch, the
historic artwork is owned by the Double Bay
Bowling Club and was commissioned in 1954
from an old photograph taken in the
late 1880s.
Until recently, the oil painting has hung
proudly over the mantelpiece in the
clubhouse; however, with the upgrading of
the club’s facilities the artwork needed a
new temporary home. The sheer size of the
artwork (160cm x 227cm), made it difficult
to find a space that could accommodate it.
Rather than consigning the work to public
auction, Double Bay Bowling Club approached
Woollahra Council about housing the artwork
at the Council Chambers. In a demonstration
of community spirit and recognition of local
history, the artwork now hangs at the top
of the Chamber staircase alongside other
historical works.
Mayor Cr. Toni Zeltzer said, “It is an honour for
our council to be the temporary custodians of

The artwork will be housed at the Council
Chambers for a period of five years, after
which there is an option to extend the loan
for another five years.

Lifeguard patrols will recommence at
Clovelly Beach on Saturday 19 September
and longer patrol hours at Maroubra and
Coogee Beaches will start after daylight
savings on 4 October. The 16 full time and seasonal professional
Lifeguards employed by Randwick City
Council completed intensive and rigorous
training today at Maroubra Beach.
They were taken through their paces with a
gruelling 800 metre swim, several board and
jet ski rescue operations, and first aid and
CPR drills all in preparation for a busy
summer period.

Randwick Mayor Ted Seng said: "The men
and women that patrol Coogee, Maroubra
and Clovelly, are some of the best, most
experienced and qualified lifeguards
in Australia.
“As the warmer weather approaches, I urge
everyone, particularly visitors and those
less familiar with the water to be careful.
Swimming at the beach is dangerous, so
always swim between the red and yellow
flags, avoid swimming alone and swim at
patrolled beaches during patrolled hours,"
Mayor Seng said.
