GUIDELINE 1
To achieve and maintain a healthy weight, be physically active and choose amounts of nutritious food and drinks to meet your energy needs

Lets look into label reading and HOW TO choose more nutritious packaged foods!

You can use the Nutrition Information Panel (NIP) to compare similar packaged foods, looking at the per 100g column.
You can compare and decide which product provides less saturated fat, salt (sodium), added sugars and more fibre.

Total Fat:
Choose foods with less than 10g per 100g. Saturated Fat:
Aim for the lowest, per 100g. Less than 2g per 100g is best.
Sugars:
Avoiding sugar completely is not necessary, but try to avoid larger amounts of added sugars. If sugar content per 100g is more than 15g, check that sugar is not listed high on the ingredient list.
Sodium (Salt):
Choose lower sodium options among similar foods. Food with less than 400mg per 100g are good, and less than 120mg per 100g is best.
Fibre:
Choose breads and cereals with 3g or more per serve.

Council’s initiative to give patrons free entry to swimming pools on days (37 degrees or above) has created an anomaly with regard to Pool Season Tickets and the benefits attached to them.

This has occurred over both the 2018/19 and 2019/20 swimming seasons.

Council is currently arranging for season ticket holders to be reimbursed with Gwydir Dollars in the form of a gift card. This reimbursement will occur at the end of this season when the exact number of free entry days is known and a pro rate amount can be calculated for both seasons.

The Gwydir Dollars gift card will only be able to be spent within the Gwydir Shire local businesses. These gift cards will also form the basis of a ‘Buy Local’ campaign and will be available from April 2020.

The Tender period for the new Bingara pool and splash program pool closed on 28 January 2020. Updates will be available on these projects over the coming weeks.

The Bingara and Warialda pools are looking incredible so enjoy the facilities and cool down.
