Crèche Corner
During July we will be making playdough for
the children to play with in the Crèche.
Cooking is a great activity to do with kids.
Here is one of our favourites that you can try
at home:
Creamed Corn Pinwheels
2 sheets of Puff Pastry
Small tin of cream corn
Half a rasher of bacon diced finely
2 teaspoons spring onion.
Half a cup of cheese.
Mix Creamed corn, bacon, cheese and
spring onion together and spread over a
sheet of puff pastry. Once spread, roll pastry
up and cut roll into ¾ inch portions, lay flat
on greaseproof paper and bake at 180 degrees until cooked.
We would also like to say a big thank you
and farewell to Glenis, who has been our
resident ‘Nanny’ in our Creche over the past
2 years. Glenis is moving home to her farm down south and will be very missed by all staff and
children.

Karratha Leisureplex Gym—Training for Success
On 31 May one of our gym members, Catherine Wall, competed in the NABBA/WFF South Pacific
Body Building competition in Perth. Over 70 men & women from across WA competed in various
divisions including Bikini, Fitness Model, Figure & Body Building. Catherine entered the 30+ Bikini
Division and received great feedback and results!
Catherine is one of our 24 hour members, preferring to train before 4am most days. “I love getting up early and getting into the gym. You would be surprised how many members come in that
early! It is pretty much the same people most days and we are all very supportive of one another. I really value the friendships I have built at the Leisureplex with my fellow gym members.”
Catherine plans on competing again at the INBA North West Titles in Karratha on 22 August, this
time in the 40+ Fitness Category. Good luck to all of our members who are training for the stage!
Step It Up Group
Fitness Launch
It’s official, Les Mills BodyStep 100 is in the
house. ‘Glitz & Glam’ was the theme and boy
did our members launch the new release in
style!
Participants spent 100 minutes Stepping, Pumping, CX’ing & Balancing the morning away
before toasting the launch with a well-deserved
glass of bubbles!
Make sure you check the current group fitness
timetable and come join us in BodyStep. The
100th release is not to be missed!
New Gym Equipment
Back, chest, arms, legs. You name it and, with the versatile cable cross over machine, you can work it!
Feel free to speak to one of our friendly qualified fitness
staff for assistance or guidance with these exercises.
If you would like a gym program written specifically for
you and which incorporates our new equipment, please
stop by Reception to book an appointment. Remember,
all gym and full facility members who are signed up for a
minimum of 3 months receive a program for free!
