    What we have done.
    We have been helping the RDA for the past 5 weeks, working with the disabled.
    We have acheived being able to help the disabled with riding the horses who without our ongoing help would not be able to have this experience
    I learnt how to clean a bridle and saddle, tacking up and down a horse.
    I can use the skills i've learn't in the future to help people i know or other organisations who have horses and need help.

    Three Facts About Legal Aid.
    Legal Aid are working with the bushfire victims from the Kinglake and Marysville areas with their legal claims.
    They focus on helping and protecting the rights of socially and economically disadvantaged Victorians.
    They can provide you with legal advice over the phone.
    Two Issues.
    School
    You must go to school until you are 16 unless you have a reasonable excuse, like:
    you are being given proper and regular lessons at home
    there is no state school within five kilometres and you are learning by correspondence
    you are very ill or unable to get to school
    the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development, for some other reason, has exempted you – for example, you have to leave school to work because your parents are very ill or suffering severe hardship.
    If you want to leave school before you turn 16 you need approval from the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (link below). Contact the department to find out the name of the regional director in your area.
    Child abuse or neglect
    If someone believes that you are being neglected or abused, including physical, sexual and emotional abuse, they can tell the Department of Human Services (DHS) (link below). Some people, like doctors, nurses, teachers, principals and police, must tell the DHS if they think a person under 17 is being sexually or physically abused, or is at risk of abuse.
    The DHS may take action to try to protect you from neglect or abuse. DHS workers may work with you and your family to sort things out. You should be involved in making decisions. Sorting things out may mean going to the Children’s Court or coming to an agreement with the DHS.
    Get urgent legal help if you or family members are being told to leave your home, or if you are unhappy with what the DHS is doing.
    There are some decisions that the Children’s Court cannot make. These decisions are made by the DHS and are called case plans. For example, if you have a guardianship order, the DHS case plan says how much access you can have with a parent.
    Children and young people have the right to have their wishes listened to. If you disagree with the DHS case plan, you should ask for a lawyer who is experienced in Children’s Court cases.
    QUESTION.
    How long would I have to wait to apply for a learners permit if it is suspended??
