Wee Waa High School's new mural reflects students' hopes and growth

Wee Waa High School has a brilliant new mural that reflects the strong, continuing Aboriginal culture at the school. Sven Wright reports. 

Wee Waa High School has unveiled its new mural, ‘A New Journey’ - a vibrant celebration of identity, growth, and connection, depicting the hopes and ambitions of the students.

The mural has been created by local Indigenous-identifying artist, Ethan Towns, in collaboration with a group of students, tracing the path of an Aboriginal student from early childhood through each stage of school life.

New Care Navigation Service Launched for Wee Waa and Surrounding Communities

New Care Navigation Service Launched for Wee Waa and Surrounding Communities

A new pilot program designed to help local residents better understand and access healthcare services has been launched across the Wee Waa district.

The Wee Waa Care Navigation Service, delivered by HealthWISE, will support community members living in Wee Waa, Pilliga, Gwabegar, Burren Junction, Rowena and surrounding areas.

The initiative was developed following the findings of the Wee Waa Community Health Survey conducted by RDN Health in late 2024, which identified that many community members were unsure how and where to access appropriate healthcare services.

The free service aims to make navigating the healthcare system easier by assisting individuals to connect with the right services and supports for their needs.

How a Sanitization Service Supports Healthier Community Spaces

How a Sanitization Service Supports Healthier Community Spaces

Maintaining hygienic community spaces through a sanitisation service may support public health, build trust, and help shared environments remain safe and welcoming.

 Shared spaces such as schools, businesses, and community facilities rely on consistent hygiene practices to remain safe for visitors and staff. A professional sanitisation service focuses on reducing bacteria and viruses on frequently touched surfaces using approved disinfectants and specialised equipment. Unlike routine cleaning, sanitisation targets microorganisms that may remain on surfaces long after visible dirt is removed. As awareness of preventive hygiene grows across Australia, organisations are increasingly adopting structured sanitisation programs to support healthier environments. Combined with responsible cleaning practices and community awareness, professional sanitisation may help reduce contamination risks while maintaining confidence in the spaces people use every day.

Why Safe Driving Matters for Families Attending Activities Like Legs Dance Studio

Why Safe Driving Matters for Families Attending Activities Like Legs Dance Studio

Safe travel habits support the routines, connections, and opportunities that community activities provide.

Regular trips to extracurricular activities such as a legs dance studio place families on the road several times each week, often during busy or low-visibility periods. Safe driving habits, vehicle maintenance, and thoughtful planning may reduce risks and make travel more manageable. Parking courtesy, reliable vehicles, and awareness of local traffic conditions all contribute to safer journeys. Community programs depend on consistent attendance, and safe transport helps make that possible. By modelling responsible driving and planning trips carefully, families support not only their children’s activities but also the safety and wellbeing of their wider community.
