23.01.2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIA ALERT | NSW Health is asking people coming from South Australia, by whatever mode of transport, to complete a declaration form to check if they have visited any of the venues of concern identified by the South Australian authorities and provide contact details if follow-up is required. This also applies to people who have been in South Australia within the past 14 days. The form is available here: https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/.../d1966e43-d4a7-4090... The... list of venues of concern are available here: https://www.nsw.gov.au/.../areas-of-concern-south-australia Anyone who has been in South Australia since Friday 6 November should regularly monitor the SA Health alert page for venues of concern and follow the advice of SA Health. They must immediately self-isolate if they have been to any venues where this is advised, and get tested if even the mildest of symptoms appear. Travellers who are not NSW residents who have visited any of these venues will not be permitted to travel to NSW until the 14-day period has elapsed. Non-residents wishing to transit through NSW will be allowed to do so, provided they take the most direct route and can do so in a way that poses no risk to others. The form will be distributed to South Australian travellers arriving at NSW transport hubs such as airports, and in areas such as Broken Hill which is a high-traffic location. Travellers are asked to fill in the form within the 24-hour period before they arrive in NSW, and may be asked to produce their declaration form. NSW Health continues to advise NSW residents to defer non-essential travel to Adelaide, while people from Adelaide should defer non-essential travel to NSW. See more

22.01.2022 REMEMBRANCE DAY - Today, is Remembrance Day, a day where we come together to remember those who have died or suffered for Australia’s cause in all wars and armed conflicts. Historically, the day marks the time at 11 am on 11 November 1918 when the guns on the Western Front fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare during World War I. More than 100 years on, we are not without our own challenges, but we still owe a great deal to those who fought bravely for Australia. It is important we acknowledge those contributions so the memories of those that have fallen live on for generations to come. #lestweforget2020
