18.01.2022 Please share this important health information in Dari. Cranbourne is very fortunate to have a vibrant and hospitable Afghan community. But I am conscious that ...not everyone has access to the information they need in the language they are most comfortable using. I've asked my friend (and Casey Citizen of the Year) Bassir Qadiri to interpret important information from the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services fact sheets into Dari. Translated fact sheets are also available below in the comments section. Tomorrow I will post a similar video with information in Pashto. This is what Bassir informs you.. we need to work together to reduce the spread of COVID-19, so please remember to: Keep a full arm-span (about 1.5 metres) between yourself and other people Wash hands often with soap and running water - for at least 20 seconds Try not to touch your eyes, nose and mouth If you are able to stay home then stay home Phone your GP first if you need medical attention Get your information from trustworthy sources www.coronavirus.vic.gov.au www.health.gov.au

17.01.2022 SPORTS VOUCHER SA families urged to cash in on Sports Vouchers as restrictions ease and sports ramp back up : https://sportsvouchers.sa.gov.au/ Who is eligibl...e for the sports voucher program? All South Australian primary school aged children, meaning if the child is attending or is eligible to attend primary school (Reception to Year 7, even if Year 7 is based at a high school). Remember it is one voucher for every primary school aged child per calendar year. South Australian families have saved more than $2.6 million so far this year by cashing in on the Marshall Government’s hugely popular Sports Vouchers Program and that’s despite COVID-19 putting a stop to sport across the State for several months. As of the 29th of May, 26,257 vouchers have been claimed by families across the State. With restrictions on training and competition set to ease within days the Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing Corey Wingard is reminding parents and carers to get their claims in. When we came into Government we doubled the value of the Sports Vouchers from $50 to $100, the Minister said. Last year the program was extremely popular with more than 74,000 vouchers claimed, worth more than $6.75 million. Our beefed-up program is a winner for South Australian families and is easing cost-of-living pressures on households. Already this year, despite COVID-19, more than 26,000 vouchers have been claimed, and we’ve noticed an increase in recent weeks as decisions around easing restrictions have been announced. Australian Rules competitions haven’t even started for the year and already 4,552 vouchers have been claimed. More than 4,100 vouchers have been claimed for gymnastics, 4,005 for football (soccer) and 3,041 for netball. The Marshall Government’s strong plan to support local jobs, businesses, organisations and the economy has seen the sporting sector receive more than $15 million in the past few months. To help keep our local clubs afloat and to protect jobs we continue to provide funding through the Community and Jobs Support Fund and via the $10,000 emergency grants, Minister Wingard said. Sporting organisations across the State are also set to benefit from Water Relief Grants expected to be worth close to $2.2 million in total. Eligible sporting organisations will be able to receive a reimbursement of 50% of their water and sewerage charges for the quarter 4 (April to June 2020) billing period. On top of that we’ve brought forward Round 3 of the Grassroots Football, Cricket and Netball Facility Program which will see $5 million in grants allocated to club across the state for infrastructure upgrades and the Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing has provided financial support through rent relief to a number of organisations. "Sport is a huge part of life here in South Australia and it’s vital to the health and well-being of everyone in the community and I look forward to seeing everyone back at it soon.

05.01.2022 SA Afghanistan is the winner of T12 Cricket Nations Cup again. SA Afghanistan has been participating in T12 Cricket Nations Cup for the last six years and they still are undefeated. While we are winners of this trophy again, but that's not the only reason we play, being in such competition playing with teams from different cultural backgrounds is a great opportunity for creating understanding, mutual respect and promoting love and harmony. SA Afghanistan players have played r...eally well as they always do. It was great to see our juniors getting to experience such competition and shining as star players of the team. Well done SA Afghanistan players and well done to all other teams involved. And thank you to all our supporters for their continuous support of the team and players. And congratulations to Sean Holden For organising one more successful competition. Adelaide T12 Cricket Nations Cup See more
