25.01.2022 Today is R U OK day! Everyone here at Blackalls Park just wanted to let everyone know that we always have a listening ear and are always up for a chat, not just today but any day! We know that times are tough at the moment through our lockdown, and it’s okay not to be okay. Maybe today is the day you check on a friend or family member you haven’t spoken to in a while ? If you need to reach out it may not be to us maybe a close friend, co worker, family! But we are always he...re!

22.01.2022 The children have experienced making tie dye shirts this week. But in stead of using chemicals and dye, our amazing educator phoebe has gathered left over food scraps, and food that we can use to cook with at preschool to make our tie dye shirts, she also received a donation of all the plain white shirts from someone in a musical production who was not using them any more. The children each had a turn of putting rubber bands and putting the food extract onto the shirts in order to make the shirts. This is an amazing experience for the children in finding ways to be sustainable and be organic. #blackallsparkpreschool #happychildren #tiedye #sustainable #foodextract #colours #learning

18.01.2022 A simple exercise such as finger breathing can support children to focus, manage feelings and bring a sense of calm. This issue of Embrace from the Victorian In...clusion Agency features articles promoting children’s sense of belonging, powerful strategies to help children manage their feelings, and a free poster with 19 positive affirmations to support children during tough times.

04.01.2022 #COVID19 PUBLIC HEALTH ALERT (8:05PM) - #NEWCASTLE DISTRICT Since the alert last night (5 August, 8.15pm), a second case of COVID-19 has been confirmed in N...ewcastle; a close contact of the teenager announced yesterday. The District is continuing to investigate the source of that case’s infection. This latest case is a male in his 20s. If you have been to the following venues at the specific time, follow the advice attached. IMMEDIATELY ISOLATE AND GET TESTED BENNETT HOTEL, HAMILTON - Friday, July 31 from 5:30PM - 10:00PM BAR 88, WESTS NEW LAMBTON - Sunday, August 2 from 5:00PM - 7:15PM SYDNEY JUNCTION HOTEL, HAMILTON - Saturday, August 1 from 11:00PM - 1:15AM on Sunday, August 2. The venues have been notified and are undergoing cleaning. Contact tracing is underway. BE ALERT FOR SYMPTOMS, GET TESTED IF SYMPTOMS DO OCCUR GREENROOF HOTEL, HAMILTON - Friday, July 31 from 10:30PM - 12:15AM SUSHI REVOLUTION, HAMILTON - Saturday, August 1 from 12:00PM - 12:45PM QUEENS WHARF HOTEL, NEWCASTLE - Saturday, August 1 from 9:30PM - 11:00PM MCDONALD JONES STADIUM, BROADMEADOW - Sunday, August 2 from 7:30PM - End of game, Newcastle Jets Match. The above public health recommendations follow a rigorous contact tracing process where an infected individual’s movements and interactions are analysed. This enables the Public Health unit to determine if there was a reasonable chance other individuals may have been infected with the virus. In this case they would be considered a close contact and required to self-isolate until 14 days after they last saw the person or attended a place where that person visited, even if they are feeling well. Casual contact includes instances where transmission is less likely. For example where someone had less than 15 minutes face-to-face contact over the course of a week with a confirmed case, or was in the same closed space with them for less than two hours. Casual contacts are not required to self-isolate, but are still encouraged to seek testing should they develop symptoms.
