SCHOOL COUNCIL FORMED.
The children during the past few months have been taking an active interest in the government of the school. A school council has been formed, the members of which see that the playground is kept tidy and also that there is general neatness around the school. There is also a very energetic band of Junior Red Cross workers. Many and varied have been their activities for the past month. The results of their efforts have been most gratifying. All money raised is used to help the sick and needy children of soldiers.
Another very active body in connection with the school is the Junior Farmers’ Club. This has a membership of 2S, comprising children from both schools and those who have left, but are still under the age of 21. The children have chosen for their projects various themes, such as vegetables, bee-keeping, flower growing and pig-raising. In connection with the vegetable’s, a ¼ acre of potatoes is being worked at the school by the whole club.
P. AND C. COMMENDED.
Tributing the P. and C. Association, the headmaster commends their tireless efforts on behalf of the school. As result, considerable material has been brought while leaving a pleasing bank balance. In the near future the Association hopes to install the electric light in the school building. The children have voluntarily assisted the war effort during the past year. A war savings group has been formed, and also a penny chain, the proceeds of the latter going to the Junior Red Cross. The local branch of the Red Cross has also had numerous donations of money from the school, having been raised from the sale of vegetables grown, by the children.
A number of children also have spent quite a lot of their spare time making camouflage nets. As a result seven of the larger nets have been completed.
Condolences to the Serving Member, their mates and family.

IGGLESDEN:
The Funeral Service to celebrate the life of Darren “Iggy” Lloyd Igglesden (First Class Constable 14703) of Beeliar will commence at the Main Entrance of FREMANTLE Cemetery, Carrington St, Palmyra on FRIDAY (26.10.2018) proceeding to the West Crematorium Chapel by 11.00am.
West Australian police are investigating the death of an officer at a station in Perth, which has been temporarily closed.
Police say it appears the officer died as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at Cockburn Police Station this morning.
It’s the third case of a West Australian police officer taking their life on the job in the past 10 years.
The WA Police Union and Medically Retired WA Police Officers Association have long called for more support, saying many first responders reported having suicidal thoughts after witnessing traumatic events.
In July 2015, Detective Sergeant Scott Blanchard took his own life while travelling with workmates to Kalgoorlie for a police operation involving Gypsy Joker bikies.
Deputy State Coroner Evelyn Vicker recently handed down her findings following an inquest into his death.
“I recommend WA Police health and welfare division use the police intranet to emphasise to serving members that their families should be made aware of the availability of its services,” she said.
In December 2008, Senior Sergeant Elliot Watt shot himself in the armoury of the Collie Police Station.
It was the first day back at work for the father of four after three weeks of annual leave and he had just assumed the role of acting officer in charge.

‘I know what they’re going through’: Commissioner opens up on police suicide
WA Police Force Commissioner Chris Dawson has revealed how he attended the suicide of a colleague as a young 20-year-old officer.
The state’s top cop said work across the community needed to be ongoing to ensure those who wished to speak up and seek help for mental health issues were not seen as being weak.
Mr Dawson made the comments on Thursday morning on Gareth Parker’s 6PR Morning Show.
He was speaking in the wake of the tragic death of a WA police officer who died at Cockburn police station on Monday.
First Class Constable Darren Igglesden, 50, is believed to have taken his own life shortly after reporting for duty at 6am.
Mr Dawson said he visited the police station on Wednesday where he spoke openly to First Class Constable Igglesden’s colleagues.
“I’ve dealt with suicides before,” Mr Dawson said on Thursday.
“I attended a suicide of one of my colleagues as a 20-year-old, so I personally understand what they are going through.
“When it’s one of your own, it hits that much harder.
“It probably galvanises you to the reality that you are mortal and while police put on uniforms and we get given powers and authorities … you’re not immune from the frailty of human life.
“The approach taken now … is that we talk openly about it. That will continue through not just today and tomorrow but in the time ahead.”
Mr Dawson said the agency was putting much greater emphasis on following up with officers who have attended confronting incidents.
“We also need to address any sort of perceptional culture that it is a sign of weakness if you ask for help,” he said.
“We are doing a lot of work … for officers that are exposed to scenes and incidents that do have a higher level of risk and stress attached to it.”
At a press conference on Monday Mr Dawson said First Class Constable Igglesden’s death had come as a complete shock to his family, friends and workmates.
Blue Hope, a not-for-profit group whose aim is to highlight police officers’ mental health issues nationally, posted to its Facebook page on Tuesday a photo of the 50-year-old in his police uniform.
“We will probably never know why Darren took his own life but what we are absolutely sure of is the fact that WA, this country and in fact the world is now less one hero,” the post read.

WA POLICE UNION Members are invited to attend the Funeral Service for our late serving member Darren Lloyd Igglesden 14703 at Fremantle Cemetery on Friday (26.10.2018) at 11.00am.
WA Police officer dead from apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound at Cockburn station
Updated
WA Police are investigating the death of an officer at a police station in Perth’s southern suburbs.
Key points:
Officer apparently shot himself at Cockburn Police Station with his police-issue firearm
WA Police Commissioner Chris Dawson said the force was in shock at the news
Death comes after state coroner calls for more support services
It is understood First Class Constable Darren Igglesden, 50, died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound at Cockburn Police Station on Monday morning.
In a statement, WA Police said support services were being offered to other officers.
The station has been temporarily closed, and the public has been asked not to attend the station until further notice. They have instead been redirected to nearby Fremantle or Mandurah stations, both of which operate 24 hours a day.
‘Popular member of the force’
Police Commissioner Chris Dawson extended his condolences to the family of Constable Igglesden and colleagues at Cockburn Police Station.
“It appears Darren has drawn his service-issued pistol from the police armoury this morning (Monday), shortly after 6:00am,” he said.
“He was found deceased by colleagues within the Cockburn police building.
“Darren’s death has come as a complete shock to his family, to his friends, and indeed the entire police force.
“At this difficult time I extend my condolences to Darren’s family, his friends, his work colleagues and everyone who knew him.
“A coronial investigation is now underway and so we should let that full investigation be completed, but there does not appear to be any other persons present at the time Darren lost his life.”
Commissioner Dawson said Constable Igglesden was a popular member of the police force.
“Constable Igglesden has been with the WA Police Force for six-and-a-half years, he joined us at about 44 years of age, he has had a varied career in the private sector prior to joining police,” he said.
“Well liked, well respected, a very popular member of the police force.”
Coroner called for more police support
The tragedy comes nearly a month after WA Deputy Coroner Evelyn Vicker released her findings into the suicide of police officer Scott Blanchard, who shot himself while on duty at Kalgoorlie in July 2015.
Ms Vicker found that while Detective Sergeant Blanchard appeared to be coping well with his job as a police officer, he had become “obsessed” that health problems he had were undiagnosable and “consequently took matters into his own hands …”
The inquest into Sergeant Blanchard‘s death heard details of the WA Police Service’s Health and Safety Division, which provides services such as confidential psychological counselling, peer support programs and chaplaincy services to officers and their families, to try to help them manage stress or issues that may arise as a result of their employment.
“At this difficult time I extend my condolences to Darren’s family, his friends, his work colleagues and everyone who knew him.
“A coronial investigation is now underway and so we should let that full investigation be completed, but there does not appear to be any other persons present at the time Darren lost his life.”

Police Minister Michelle Roberts said she believed the culture within the organisation was changing.
“I think the police force has changed dramatically over the last 10 years or so, in terms of encouraging officers to come forward and to show some additional care for themselves and their fellow officers,” she said.
“It used to certainly be the case that the attitude was ‘toughen up’ and to show any emotional vulnerability was seen as some kind of weakness. That’s not the attitude that’s been taken by police in recent years.
“We have had some shocking and tragic incidents in recent times where officers have had to turn out to shocking scenes, and sometimes they go to road crashes where they see shocking scenes, so we need to know that they have got the support there.
“And I have certainly received assurances from the Commissioner of Police and others that we have got good supports in place. Sometimes, though, people need to avail themselves of that support.”

Rank: Probationary Constable – appointed 5 May 1975
One of two stories. I might leave Arthur ‘Neddie’ Smiths story for another time in the future…..a very long time in the future. Other story.
Fairly certain it was a Sunday night, and while having a game of snooker in the meal room at Pyrmont, with Brian MacKinlay, (RIP), a call was received.
Headed out with all lights off down to a back lane in Pyrmont. I am fairly certain it was Paternoster Row.
We pulled up and crept up to the house on the corner. We took little interest in the tailights disappearing in the distance. As we were about to kick the door in, an old woman opens it and says, “too bad boys, Mad Dog left here 30 seconds ago”.
Seems the tailights were that of the car which housed Russell ‘Mad dog‘ Cox, as he had been holed up in this particular house for 4 days before someone dobbed him in, and we were 30 seconds late in grabbing him.
