CONCORD WEST TOASTMASTERS CELEBRATES A NEW BORN MEMBERS

CONCORD WEST TOASTMASTERS NEWEST MEMBER

Congratulations to Club Member Hayley and husband Jesh.

The first new born in the Club's history as far as records indicate.

Esther Negi 

Born 26th January 2025

Australia Day Special 

4.1kg 53cm she’s a double whopper! 

As Hayley has said: Esther has adjusted well to ex-utero life and loves to scream! 

Jesh and I are very happy and adjusting to the new lifestyle. I’m recovering well. 

My cats are petrified of this new toothless screaming cat and are camping outside which resolves our worries the cats would bother her.
