Sweet Mikayla was meant to be dancing at her formal and celebrating her year six graduation tomorrow; instead, she passed away on Wednesday 3rd December 2025, taken too soon by a childhood brain tumour known as diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG).

Mikayla was a bright, vibrant, positive, and brave princess who loved to help people. Her wish was to tell other children that "brain cancer is not scary". She wanted to use her own story to encourage other families impacted by cancer.

In lieu of flowers for her farewell service, Mikayla would like to raise some funds to assist the brain cancer community. The money raised will be donated to various organisations with a goal to find a cure of DIPG, and some of the money will assist the families in need.

If you’d like to contribute in loving memory of Mikayla please check out the link here; https://www.gofundme.com/f/mnu75r-in-loving-memory-of-mikayla-lo

🎣 In Loving Memory of Song Chua Te 🎣
Gone Fishing

It is with deep sadness — and great honour — that we announce the funeral service for Song Chua Te: a devoted son, husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend to many. A talented pastry chef, respected business owner, and beloved community figure, Song’s tireless charity work touched countless lives.

He will be remembered for his kindness, laughter, wisdom, and deep compassion — a legacy that will live on in the hearts of his family and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

While our hearts ache, we imagine him now — lines cast, in peaceful waters — gone fishing.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to the Kids Cancer Foundation, a charity close to Song’s heart.

Western Sydney residents are being encouraged to stay on alert for symptoms of gastroenteritis, with testing and hospital data showing a significant rise in cases in recent weeks across the state.

“The message to the community is clear – simple measures can help stop the spread of gastro. Maintaining good hand hygiene and keeping children at home when they are unwell will give us a good chance to slow the spread.” Director of NSW Health’s One Health branch, Keira Glasgow.

We are running a survey to hear from our community about their experiences with healthcare in the Blue Mountains, Hawkesbury, Lithgow and Penrith. The feedback will help us identify the services that can be improved, to make it easier for everyone to access healthcare and help ensure our health services meet the needs of the community. As one of our valued stakeholders, we would appreciate your assistance in sharing this opportunity with others in your network who live in the region.

The responses will help shape our 2024 Health Needs Assessment, helping us better align services with the needs of our region. The survey covers important areas like access to healthcare, mental health support and managing long-term conditions. Responses are completely private and will be only used to help plan future healthcare services.

Survey participants can enter the draw to win one of five $100 gift cards.

The survey will take around 20 minutes to complete and closes on 20 October. For more information about this survey and prize draw, visit Wentworth Healthcare.
