Alex Benham turned 2 on 28th April, Happy Birthday Alex!

Reminder: Don’t forget it is Mother’s Day this Sunday 10th May, spoil your Mum with something nice and maybe even breakfast in bed!

Contributions Welcome: With the current COVID-19 pandemic we would love to hear from you! Please email your Be Seen photos, Stork News, Way Back When photos and story, Engagement News, Wedding Bells, Anniversary celebrations, Birthday photos, Letter to the Editor or any other exciting story ideas to editor@canowindraphoenix.com.au or phone 6344 1846.

Canowindra High School Phase One: Students will start to return to the classroom from 11th May on the following days: Monday – Year 11 and 12, Tuesday – Year 7, Wednesday – Year 10 plus Year 12 Major Work Students, Thursday – Year 8 and 9 and Friday – Year 11 and 12. Social distancing measures will be in place both in the classroom and playground until the Department of Education advises otherwise.

Day for Dolly: This Friday, 8th May is “Do it for Dolly Day”. This day is an initiative which aims to extend the anti-bullying Dolly’s Dream message within the community and build on the support available for those impacted by bullying and/or cyberbullying. To support this initiative everyone is encouraged to wear blue shirts as a way of promoting the anti-bullying message.

Cabonne Council News: Council conducts a public forum where community members can have their say on items of business that are within the responsibilities of council. Public forums are held on the second Tuesday of each month commencing at 2pm with the next one being Tuesday 12th May. Sometimes there are many people wanting to speak, so the length of time for each speaker is limited to 5 minutes and the total number of speakers is limited to 4 per session. The arrangements for community members to speak at a Council meeting have changed at the moment while they have moved meetings to a video-conferencing platform. If you wish to speak during the public forum section of the meeting please contact the Office of the General Manager on 6392 3208 for more information.

Letter to the Editor: Hello Phoenix, Thank you for publishing Ima’s letter. I agree wholeheartedly and believe it’s totally inappropriate for anyone, let alone a person of ‘standing’ in the community, to defame chili and coriander. Inexcusable and I agree that Mr Ward should make a public apology. Regards, Anne Vincent.

Florence, Bede and Ivy McDonald had fun celebrating Florence’s 8th Birthday last Wednesday!
