The word has definitely got around that Petrie's Mitre 10 Trade Nights are a must-attend. From 4pm until close, a constant crowd took advantage of the advice and deals on offer from the many companies who attended.

It was party time for Dubbo College Senior Campus Year 12 students. The now traditional gathering in Victoria Park for students, family and friends, prior to the rest of the end-of-school festivities at Dubbo RSL, was a sea of formal style and colour, the purple of the jacaranda trees creating an extra level for the many hundreds of photographs taken. Congratulations to Dubbo College Senior Campus Year 12, it’s been a year with your Astley Cup Victory and so much more.

A recent study has found retirement living residents have a better quality of life than other older Australians, while renters fared the worst.

Those in a Retirement Community score significantly higher on the Catalyst Wellness Index (77.5) compared with the average for all older Australians (71.3).
