Hickey and Wayne

This matter concerned orders pending further order in relation to two children, B and C, born in 2006 and 2009 respectively. The proceedings were before Stevenson J.

The court was required to determine the living arrangements for the children and the time they would spend with each parent. This included establishing specific arrangements for school terms, school holidays, special occasions, and communication between the children and their parents.

By consent, the parties agreed to various practical arrangements concerning changeovers, communication, notification of illness or injury, and the provision of contact details and residential addresses. The court ordered that the children would live with the mother and detailed the specific periods the children would spend with the father, including alternate weekends during school terms, periods during school holidays, and on specific birthdays and Father's Day. The court also made orders regarding telephone communication between the children and the father, and stipulated that each party would provide necessary consents for the release of information from health professionals and schools. All other interim applications were dismissed.
