Top Tips for Embracing a Healthy Lifestyle
Column: Kerrie Cleggett, IN 2 HEALTH In the fast-paced world we live in where convenience sometimes takes preference – it’s crucial to prioritize a healthy lifestyle that nourishes both body and mind. Here are some of my top tips: 1. Balanced Diet: Eat a range of fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains, and healthy fats. Reduce processed food as much as possible. Eating a well-balanced diet will give your body the vital nutrients it needs to thrive. When you are eating nutrient dense foods you won’t crave less nutrient dense foods. 2. Regular Exercise: Physical activity is of high importance in a healthy lifestyle. Make time for regular exercise that suits your fitness level and personal preferences. By staying active, you enhance your cardiovascular health and boost your overall well-being. 3. Hydration: Adequate hydration plays a vital role in maintaining good health. Water requirements may vary depending on your size and activity […]
It’s all action for Agriculture at Naracoorte High
Ag Speak: By Kristin Murdock While the Adelaide Royal Show is not until September, the Naracoorte High School Agricultural Studies students are already preparing for the challenge. With steers and Merino wethers to get in shape, Ag Studies teacher, Emma Phillip is excited there are over 40 students being involved in the program and praises their commitment. “This includes after school training to train the animals and working as a team to develop showmanship skills,” she said. “Students are involved in the whole process, from working with the animals to feeding, general husbandry tasks and learning how to parade animals for the show. Currently, the school has nine steers and 10 merino wethers being prepared.” The Year 10 students have also enjoyed working with the wethers to learn about fibre production and how to judge the animals on constitution, conformation, and wool quality. Emma said the team would like to […]
Libs hope to hold MacKillop
By Chris Oldfield NARACOORTE’S Lachlan Haynes says he is “seriously considering” standing for Liberal preselection when nominations open for MacKillop. Radiation therapy, rural doctors, housing availability, local access to training and education for trades and services, road maintenance – the issues roll off the tongue of Mr Haynes who last year was elected an SA Liberal Party State vice-president. He is best known for leading the fight for radiation therapy services in the SE with a petition of 20,000 signatures forcing a parliamentary inquiry. “No longer should a regional postcode determine you automatically receive a lesser service or (reduced) health service,” he said. Mr Haynes explained the SE is the engine room of this State’s wealth. But he believed services were in decline while small businesses and farmers were being squeezed by the green and red rubber rings of bureaucracy. “On top of that are the day-to-day cost of living […]
Roundabouts tally $14.6 million
By Chris Oldfield NARACOORTE’S roundabouts have a total expenditure of $14.6 million, according to the SA Government’s 2023-24 budget papers. That includes a further $2.75 million listed to be spent before June 2024. Ironically, a 2004 Naracoorte Lucindale Council ignored the community’s call for stop lights, claiming roundabouts were going to be cheaper. The $14.6 million listing is on page 113 of Budget Statement – Budget Paper 3. But it represents money spent since 2020. Explaining the expenditure to The News, Regional Roads Minister Geoff Brock said the $14.6 million Rural Roads Package – Naracoorte Roundabouts project “has comprised upgrades to two existing roundabouts located in Naracoorte”. Regarding the Riddoch Hwy-Wimmera Hwy/Smith St-Lucindale Rd roundabout, Mr Brock said it involved full reconstruction of the roundabout, kerb realignment, upgraded road lighting, line marking, new underground drainage and pavement reconstruction. “Main works were completed in June 2020, with a minor redesign of […]
