Tubbut's buzzing, step parenting, Buchan news and local theatre

October 16, 2012 , 8:36 AM by Gerard Callinan

Back in harness after another long weekend (which I could certainly get used to) and lots on for a Tuesday breakfast show. If you missed any of the interviews the audio is listed below.

Deb Foskey from the Tubbut Tattler was full of news today from that part of Gippsland and southern New South Wales. If you would like to receive the Tattler or get in touch with Deb contact her via email at tubbutnh@bigpond.com

Tom Sinclair from the Family Relationship Centre at Traralgon joined me to talk about a really interesting topic: a program for step parents to become better in that role. Tom details a number of pressures that are unique to a step family. If you're interested in finding out more about the program give Tom a ring on 5175 9333.

Evelyn Schmidt from the Buchan Neighbourhood House described how that community is using money it received from a State Library grant to further the computer skills of local residents. Training in internet banking, shopping and even tutoring in mathematics for primary school children are all being done on line with some interesting results.

Finally, Barry's theatre slot looked at new productions opening this weekend as well as the announcment of cast members for an innovative production later in the year.

Music played today was Toots and the Maytals - Do the Reggae and Cat Stevens - Remember the days of the old school yard.

Gratuitous pic: Essendon v Adelaide who it has been announced will open the AFL season next year. bet you can't wait!
