Restrictions to be Eased: Premier Gladys Berejiklian has announced an easing of social distancing rules, with two adults and their young children being allowed to visit the homes of their friends from Friday, May 1. The Premier said there was an “inherent risk” to easing restrictions but she was “absolutely confident that people will be responsible”. “Don’t take risks — we don’t want to see the numbers suddenly spike up because people are being irresponsible,” Ms Berejiklian said. “If you have the mildest sniffle, do not go and visit anybody or if you’re feeling slightly unwell or fatigued, don’t risk it. This isn’t a license to go wild and have massive parties,” continued Ms Berejiklian. The Premier hoped the new guidelines on visits will improve mental health in the community.

Canowindra Craft and Hobby Shop: Last Thursday 23rd April was very successful for the Canowindra Craft and Hobbies Shop being opened from 10am – 2pm. Customers were very grateful to be able to purchase items as well as craft and hobby supplies. The shop will be open again today Thursday 30th April from 10am – 2pm. Cooking and plants will be available as well as Jams, Chutney, Relish, Honey, eggs and much more. Don’t forget Mother’s Day coming up on 10th May so pop in to check out the lovely items to buy.

School Zones Back in Action: Although there are limited students at schools now that Term 2 has resumed. Please remember that NSW School zones are in operation between 8:00am – 9:30am and 2:30pm – 4:00pm Monday to Friday. So stay under the 40km/h speed limit and keep the kids safe.
