24.01.2022 Does it feel like your kids have asked for the WHOLE toy shop this Christmas? The answer could be a Keith Community Toy Library 2021 Membership under the tree. ... For just $50 per year/per family, members can borrow as little or as much as they like. The best part is you can now sign up online, making it the perfect choice for the last minute shopper. https://form.jotform.co/93349083327866

23.01.2022 This year we are having 'The Heart Tree' where people are able to purchase gifts which are age specific for children in our community who may not otherwise get ...a Christmas gift this year. These gifts will go to LOCAL children first, and then if we have extra gifts we will arrange for them to go to the Salvation Army Christmas Appeal. We will have The Heart Tree set up at the street party for gift collection, and it will then go into the Bendigo Bank for late arrivals. If gifts can please be labelled as male/ female with an age specific labelled. If you have any more questions about this please contact us directly.

17.01.2022 Twas the night before Christmas; there wasn't a sound. Not a possum was stirring; no-one was around. We'd left on the table some tucker and beer, Hoping that Sa...nta Claus soon would be here; We children were snuggled up safe in our beds, While dreams of pavlova danced 'round in our heads; And Mum in her nightie, and Dad in his shorts, Had just settled down to watch TV sports. When outside the house a mad ruckus arose; Loud squeaking and banging woke us from our doze. We ran to the screen door, peeked cautiously out, Snuck onto the deck, then let out a shout. Guess what had woken us up from our snooze, But a rusty old Ute pulled by eight mighty 'roos. The cheerful man driving was giggling with glee, And we both knew at once who this plump bloke must be. Now, I'm telling the truth it's all dinki-di, Those eight kangaroos fairly soared through the sky. Santa leaned out the window to pull at the reins, And encouraged the 'roos, by calling their names. 'Now, Kylie! Now, Kirsty! Now, Shazza and Shane! On Kipper! On, Skipper! On, Bazza and Wayne! Park up on that water tank. Grab a quick drink, I'll scoot down the gum tree. Be back in a wink!' So up to the tank those eight kangaroos flew, With the Ute full of toys, and Santa Claus too. He slid down the gum tree and jumped to the ground, Then in through the window he sprang with a bound. He had bright sunburned cheeks and a milky white beard. A jolly old joker was how he appeared. He wore red stubby shorts and old thongs on his feet, And a hat of deep crimson as shade from the heat. His eyes - bright as opals - Oh! How they twinkled! And, like a goanna, his skin was quite wrinkled! His shirt was stretched over a round bulging belly Which shook when he moved, like a plate full of jelly. A fat stack of prezzies he flung from his back, And he looked like a swaggie unfastening his pack. He spoke not a word, but bent down on one knee, To position our goodies beneath the yule tree. Surfboard and footy-ball shapes for us two. And for Dad, tongs to use on the new barbeque. A mysterious package he left for our Mum, Then he turned and he winked and he held up his thumb; He strolled out on deck and his 'roos came on cue; Flung his sack in the back and prepared to shoot through. He bellowed out loud as they swooped past the gates- MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, and goodonya, MATES!' See more

15.01.2022 There is currently a higher risk of mosquito-borne Kunjin and Murray Valley encephalitis viruses in South Australia, particularly in regions along the River Mu...rray. This warning comes after a sentinel chicken based at Meningie tested positive for these diseases during routine monitoring. There is no vaccine and no cure for these potentially deadly diseases so it’s important to #FightTheBite of mosquitoes and protect yourself.
