Directions  From Echuca you take the Murray Valley highway towards Shepparton and the turn-off to Wakiti is signposted (big blue sign)  down Curr road.  Go down Curr road and not far after it becomes dirt there is a right hand turn (signposted Wakiti) towards Yambuna bridge.  Keep following the dirt through the farmland and into the bush, go over the single-lane Yambuna Bridge and keep following the road until it comes out of the bush and the resort is pretty easy to spot on the right.  

First Aid and Food Handling courses

For those of you interested in doing a First Aid &/or Food Handling course.  BEPC received a grant of $2800.00 this year, and it was decided that some of that money could be spent on the above courses.
 
The cheapest First Aid Course is run through Echuca Regional Health.  It costs $130.00 for the full course or $65.00 for CPR update only.  Times & days are flexible.  Full day is 9 - 4.30 pm, or 2 evenings can be arranged. They need 12 people for it to go ahead (can be external applicants as well).
 
Campaspe College Of Adult Education hold a 'Use Hygienic Practices For Food Safety' course.
 6-10pm $90.00.  To be held Feb 4th, April 1st, June 3rd.  This is recommended for those that will be 'helping in the kitchen'. This education is a prerequisite for the 'Food Supervisors' course, which only one of us needs to do (& I am happy to do it).
 
Please let Katrina Moni know if you are interested.
