NEW HIGH SCHOOL!
Gateway Community High are now enrolling for Year 9 and 10 in 2021.
It was my pleasure to visit them at 263 Marsden Rd Carlingford and find out more about how they'll serve our community.
It's run by the Macquarie Community College people, and will have 30 students initially.
It's directed at students who have not thrived or felt supported in mainstream education.
If you know of any family who may be interested, Gateway could be an option, so please let them know.
I wish them and their future students all the best for 2021!

It's gratifying to announce that access to a life-saving and life-changing medicine will soon be expanded for Australian children and infants with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), thanks to a breakthrough medicine listing on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS).

Subsidised access to the life-changing medicine Spinraza® (nusinersen) will be expanded to include children and infants genetically diagnosed with the most severe types of SMA before the onset of symptoms (pre-symptomatic).

SMA is a rare inherited genetic muscle wasting disease characterised by a loss of motor neurons. It causes progressive muscle weakness and wasting, and its most severe forms can cause paralysis and death.

Without the subsidy, families would pay more than $367,000 a year for treatment. From 1 December families and their children will be able to access this life changing medicine for $41 or $6.60 per script with a concession card.

Approximately 18 children and infants, and their families, are expected to benefit from this expanded PBS listing per year. Good luck to those families, our prayers and best wishes remain with you.
