Julie:
When you get to Hatfield all you see is the lovely old closed pub, an old school which is now used by the mobile childrens' service and the community hall with tennis courts. All this standing in the red dirt. But distance and drought are no barriers to the ladies who gathered for the Isolated Childrens and Parents Association Ladies Day. The Uniting church paid for the child care and a bus to bring some ladies out from Balranald . The women had all travelled to get there and were treated to speakers talking about legal issues, working in Saudi Arabia, insurance and beauty therapy. I spoke on the important role that listening to each other plays in keeping us all well. There were also displays of art works, crafts and handiwork, all done locally. It was an excellent day of learning and fellowship.
