Welcome to July MOTS! This month we can officially say goodbye to the last financial year, race to get our tax refunds and then think of the many ways to spend the cold hard cash (locally of course) - like the Cronulla Winter Markets! If you haven't been before, you really need to mark this one in your calendars. A great event for the whole family to enjoy with a variety of stalls and tonnes of food (and bevies for the adults too), rides, live entertainment, music, plaster craft and lots of activities.

This month we're also bringing you the hottest tips in property styling and real estate, a free webinar on choosing a local childcare, options for your daughters high school education and exciting job opportunities to work with us and be part of the MOTS team!

Also in case you hadn't heard - we got hacked! So we have created a new and improved instagram account for you to follow.


Don't forget you can also explore our Business Directory to find local services to support your needs or seek out specific advice from our wonderfully supportive Mums of the Shire Community Facebook Group!

WE WERE HACKED!
Our dear MOTS, some of you may already know that our Instagram page was recently taken over by scammers and subsequently shut down. 

It was time for a change anyhow - and you know what, change really is as good as a holiday. We have a new sexy logo to start and are coming back bigger and better than ever. So make sure you are following along, because there are exciting things happening at the MOTS headquarters.

SCHOLARSHIPS FOR SCHOOLGIRLS
How does an ideal education for your daughter look?

Does it encourage bravery? Is it an education that challenges perceptions of what a woman is capable of and what she should be able to do on a social, academic, and creative level? Do you hope it teaches your daughter about responsibility and how to contribute to the world, both actively and positively?

If so, MLC School may be the perfect fit for your daughter and they are offering scholarships for girls in year 5 and 7-11 now.
STAGING YOUR HOME FOR SALE
If you’ve heard of “home-staging” or styling your property for sale, you might be wondering whether it’s worth the cost.

We dove into the research and spoke to Harwood Property to determine whether home-staging is worth your while and the principles for staging your property to gain a maximum return on your sale.
BUYING IN THE SHIRE?
Looking for the home of your dreams in the Shire? Ensure you’re making a sound investment before handing over what is likely a substantial chunk of your savings when you buy a home. Use the tips from Matt Callaghan Property to ensure you’re purchasing a home that will serve you and your family well for years to come.
AN INCLUSIVE SCHOOL COMMUNITY
Your child's education is perhaps the greatest gift you will ever give them, and this makes selecting the school your child will attend a significant decision. Many factors go into school selection, and one of the most important factors is finding the right fit for your child.

Presbyterian Ladies' College, Sydney (PLC Sydney) is a school that prides itself on providing a warm and caring community to support your daughters during their education.
