To help get into the holiday spirit, we’ve redecorated the Ngalipaku
Building Youth Centre in Christmas theme this month. Throughout
December participant will also partake in a number of Christmas
craft activities. Many of our participants are hugely excited for the
Christmas holiday break and the new year.

         As nominated by the Nglipaku Building Youth Centre

                One of our participants nominated Let It Snow
                as their favourite Christmas movie as they
                described as the most wholesome festive film
                they’ve ever watched.

                Despite it being over thirty years old many Youth
                Centre participants still regard Home Alone as a
                classic Christmas movie full of laughs.

                The animated remake of The Grinch is also a
                massive hit amongst the Youth Centre’s regular
                attendees. The updated sound track was a
                particular point of interest, creating an tasteful
                modernization of a classic Christmas film.

                   Christmas Fun Facts
   Rudolph’s red nose is probably the result of a parasitic infection of his
   respiratory system.

   Two weeks before Christmas is the one of the two most popular times for
   couples to break up.

   It is believed Germany began the tradition of the Christmas tree. Additionally,
   tinsel, which was once made of actual silver, is traced to 1610 in Germany.

   All of the items in the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas” total 354 gifts.

   Ukrainian Christmas tree decorations often include an artificial spider and web
   because they believe a spider web found on Christmas morning brings good
   luck.

   Denny’s restaurants in the United States originally stayed open all day and
   night, so their buildings were built without locks. In 1988, they decided to close
   on Christmas Day, but they could not lock the doors!

 Ingredients
 250 g Butter room temperature
 1 Tbsp Cinnamon
 1 Tsp Ground Cloves
 ½ Tbsp Ground Ginger
 ½ Tbsp Freshly Ground Cardamom
 180 g Caster Sugar
 40 g Golden Syrup
 60 g Molasses
 75 mls Water
 500 g Plain Flour
 1 Tsp Bicarbonate of soda

 Instructions
 Blend the butter and all the spices in a large bowl.

 Heat the sugar, molasses, golden syrup and water until the sugar has dissolved. Leave
 to cool for 10-15 minutes and pour over the butter mixture. Cool to room
 temperature.

 Blend the flour and bicarbonate and the stir into the butter and sugar mixture. The
 mixture is fairly loose but it's now going to be refrigerated for roughly 8 hours, divide
 into 4 and wrap in clingfilm. This dough can be kept in the fridge for several days or
 indeed frozen for up to a 3 months.

 Oven 190C fan. Take only a small amount of the dough from the fridge and lightly
 flour your surface and roll out the dough 2mm thick. Stamp out your shapes with
 your chosen cookie cutters. With the help of a thin bladed knife, transfer them
 carefully to lined baking trays. Bake once you’ve filled a tray. Bake the biscuits for 5-6
 minutes. They should start to feel hard around the edges as they cool and eventually
 become really crisp – they need to have a nice ‘snap’. Store in an airtight container for
 several weeks.

 Notes
 *If you are making Christmas decorations remember to make a hole for the ribbon or
 string to go through. Do this as soon as they come out of the oven, I use the tip of a
 very small piping nozzle.

       We had a spin around the globe to look at how Christmas is celebrated in
       different places all around the World.

                        Christmas has only been widely celebrated in Japan for the last
                        few decades. Christmas in known as more of a time to spread
                        happiness rather than a religious celebration. Christmas Eve is
                        thought of as a romantic day, in which couples spend together
                        and exchange presents. Fried chicken is often eaten on
                        Christmas day. It is the busiest time of year for restaurants such
                        as KFC so people often place orders at their local fast food
                        restaurant in advance. The traditional Japanese Christmas food
                        is Christmas cake, but it's not a rich fruit cake, is usually a
                        sponge cake decorated with strawberries and whipped cream.
                        While most businesses will treat the 25th as a 'normal' working
                        day schools are usually closed on Christmas Day. This is majorly
                        due to the fact that the Emperor's birthday (a national holiday)
                        is on the 23rd December and there's also a school break for
                        New Years.

In Sweden, Christmas begins with Saint Lucia Day on
December 13. The date commemorates Saint Lucy (or
Lucia in Scandinavian countries). Usually, the eldest
daughter in the family portrays St. Lucia. They put on a
white robe in the morning, wear a crown full of candles
and personifying St. Lucia, she serves their parents buns,
cookies and coffee. Christmas Eve, is known
as Julafton in Swedish and its the main day that Swedes
celebrate Christmas. A traditional Christmas Eve dinner
usually includes a smorgasbord, with ham, pork, or fish,
as well as a variety of sweets. After the festive Christmas
Eve dinner, someone dresses up as Tomte (a Christmas
gnome) and hands out gifts to family and guests. The
date of the Epiphany on January 6 is recognized as a
religious holiday in Sweden and rounding out the end of
the Christmas season is Hilarymas, also called Knut's Day
or Tjugondag jul on January 13.

 A Visit from St Nicholas
             The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
            While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
              And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
            Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.

              When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
             I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
                   Away to the window I flew like a flash,
               Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

              The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
               Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
             When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
              But a miniature sleigh, and eight tinny reindeer.

                 With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
                  I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.
               More rapid than eagles his courses they com,
          And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!

           “Now Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen!
             On, Comet! On Cupid! On, on Donner and Blitzen!
               To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall!
               Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!”

             As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
            When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
              So up to the house-top the coursers they fly,
             With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.
ISSUE 145, DECEMBER 2020                                           PAGE 19

            And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
            The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
           As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
          Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound.

         He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
        And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
              A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back,
         And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.

         His eyes-how they twinkled! His dimples how merry!
          His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
            His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
         And the beard of his chin was a white as the snow.

            The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
          And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
             He had a broad face and a little round belly,
          That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!

            He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
            And I laugh when I saw him, in spite of myself!
              A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
            Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.”

          He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
           And filled all the stocking, then turned with a jerk.
                And laying his finger aside of his nose,
              And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!
          He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
            And away they flew like the down of a thistle.
          But I heard him exclaim, ëre he drove out of sight,
           “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!

         Tips For An Eco Friendly Christmas
Choose a gift that lasts— Avoid buying too much stuff that will end up being thrown out
or unused. Instead, make every gift count by purchasing things with value, purpose and
meaning.

Switch to eco-friendly wrapping paper— Switching to brown eco-friendly paper instead
will help to minimize the high levels of waste produced at this time of year.

Re-use Christmas tree decorations or go second-hand— Unless your baubles are
damaged or broken, do your best to reuse them each year.

Cut food waste— When you're food shopping, try plan ahead and avoid unnecessarily
overbuying food. Instead of throwing out unused food see what you can freeze, donate
to your local food bank or compost any other waste.

Consider buying gifts second hand— It's not the cost of the present that shows how
special someone is, it's the thought that's behind it. Some people sell brand new items
which were unwanted gifts or used only a couple of times and still look new.

                                                                   Paid Advertisement

            ST JOHN AMBUALNCE WA - SERVICE MEDAL AWARD

St John Ambulance Volunteer, Deb Pianto, last Thursday, November 5, received the Service
Medal which is awarded for 10 years of volunteering service with St John.

Deb started her volunteering in Menzies on November 30, 2009, and after completing her
Volunteer Ambulance Officer course with St John, Deb has continued her training to
achieve the scope of practice of Emergency Medical Technician.

Since that time Deb has volunteered an average of 100 hours of ambulance call outs per
year except for 2020 where circumstances meant that the Menzies Sub Centre had
reduced in volunteer numbers.

As a thank you to Deb and all of our Goldfields Volunteers a Virtual Awards Ceremony was
held at our Kalgoorlie Regional Office last Thursday. The medals were presented by
Community Paramedic, Lauren Steels.

We were able to watch a TV presentation from our St John Belmont Head Office with spe-
cial thanks being sent to all from St John Ambulance WA CEO, Michelle Fyfe and Premier,
Mark McGowan as well as other special guests.

We had a fantastic night celebrating the great work our volunteers do for their communi-
ties.
Congratulations again to Deb for all that she does for the Menzies community.
