Dear All,

It’s nice to be walking on 2 feet and relatively mobile although it’s still a balancing act. I am discovering that broken bones do not go back together as easily as they break.

My apologies that you did not receive a Student Newsletter last month. I wanted to include the dates for the Practical Weekends in the Second Semester and this has taken some time to organise and check with all the individuals concerned. Now we have dates, a place and staff.

Residential Practicals

There will be two Residential Practicals in the second Semester. These will be conducted over two 3 day weekends in Larraine and Allan White’s Abbey at Manilla in August and October.

Dates: 26—29th August

30th September—3rd October

The work hours on each weekend will consist of

7.00—9.00 Friday evening and 9.00 - 5.00 Saturday, Sunday and a shorter time on Monday.

There will be a total of 20 Practical hours.

LRCCS students can arrange to stay at the Abbey. Larraine will be organising morning teas and lunch. Booking forms and costs will be printed in the next “What’s It” .

Plenary Day

Our gathering of students from all centres is planned for Uralla on the 17th September, 2005.

We are asking what students would like that day

Armidale/Uralla Practical/Tutorial

Lynn will not be conducting any Tutorials in June. There will be a 4 hour Tutorial in the Counselling Rooms in the Anglican Registry in Armidale on July 1 1.00—5.00 followed by a Practical day on the 2nd July 9.30 to 5.00 in the Uralla Anglican Church Hall. Lynn’s phone number is 6772 9753.

Tamworth Tutorial

Change of days!!!

Since the second weekend in June is a long weekend I plan to hold the Tamworth Tutorial on the first Saturday, the 4th June.

Inverell Tutorial

The Tutorial at Inverell will run on the 18th June and not on the usual 1st Saturday weekend.

Lois Phone Number is 6722 3179

Please notify the Tutors by Wednesday in the week before a Practical that you plan to attend.

Scholarships

There is to be a cut off date for Scholarship Applications each six months. The next Applications are invited by 26th August.

Application forms may be obtained from the Secretary of the LRCCS Management Committee.

Library News

When you are looking for support material for your assignments it is important to make sure that the writers you quote are knowledgeable about the topic and is recognised as such by other experts in that field. We assignments markers are concerned at the number of unknown internet sources which are being referenced in assignments. Any Internet reference you refer to in an assignment is to be downloaded and sent with the assignment.

The reference lists for each unit contain books that are available in the LRCCS Library collection as are the journal articles. Jane Lepp, the new LRCCS Library assistant in Tamworth, has been locating these for use by students. Photocopies of these are available on request for 10c a page.

In addition to the local Library collections you may request books from the larger LRCCS collection. Each centre has a copy of the list of the collection so students can request these books by leaving a message on my phone (02) 6762 5210, emailing LRCCS, writing or faxing.

From the Desk

The submission for Reaccreditation of the Course is in it’s final stages thanks to Drs Robyn Smyth and Catherine Hungerford. I thank them for all their work.

Thanks everyone,

Best wishes,

 Jenny
