Free Water Safety DVD - Kids Alive Do The 5

As we approach the warmer months Federal Member for Lindsay, David Bradbury, has joined with Laurie Lawrence in promoting the important Kids Alive Do the Five water safety message.

Mr Bradbury has organised with Laurie Lawrence for local families to be provided with a free Living with Water DVD.“Summer isn’t too far away, so now is the perfect time to teach our children the important Kids Alive do the Five water safety message to reduce the risk of preschool downing.”

Drowning is the biggest cause of accidental death in children under five in Australia. On average one child in Australia drowns each week. Laurie Lawrence said showing your children the water safety DVD is just one small way everyone can do their bit to reduce drowning in Australia. “Owning a swimming pool is a big responsibility.

Pool owners must ensure that their pool is fenced and complies with local government legislation” said Mr Lawrence. “Every local parent should grab a copy of the DVD from David Bradbury’s office and make sure their children are doing the five.”Laurie Lawrence’s Kids Alive Do the Five are:1.Fence the pool 2.Shut the gate 3. Teach your kids to swim – it’s great 4.Supervise – watch your mate,and 5. Learn how to resuscitate

Copies of the DVD can be obtained by calling David Bradbury’s Office on (02) 4732 1801 or emailing david.bradbury@aph.gov.au For further information on Laurie Lawrence’s Kids Alive Do the Five water safety program, visit www.kidsalive.com.au

: Lucy Burnitt wins 3 major awards at UTS

Lucy Burnitt has won three major awards at the University of Technology, Sydney’s annual Design, Architecture and Building Prize Ceremony.

The Bachelor of Property Economics student received $13,500 in cash prizes after being awarded the Stockland Ervin Graf Scholarship, the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors Property Economic Prize and the Australian Property Institute Year Prize.

Receiving the Stockland Ervin Graf Scholarship presented Lucy the opportunity to undertake a year of paid work experience with Stockland in addition to a $12,000 cash prize.

“I felt incredibly grateful for having the opportunity to combine my study with part time work with such a fantastic company. It’s proven to be an incredible experience. It has complemented my studies and has provided me with the opportunity to put into practice what I have learnt in the classroom,” Lucy said.

“Studying property at university has allowed me to expand this interest; opening up avenues that I didn’t even know existed before I started the degree,” she said.

Lucy will complete her degree this year, and hopes to continue to build her career with Stockland, possibly in a development, acquisition or asset management role.
