School building gets its first major upgrade By David Lee IT’S one of the original buildings erected at Gowrie Street Primary School and once housed the staff room as well as various levels of students over the years, but the 60 year old ‘light timber construction’ building has just begun to get its first major upgrade since being built. The upgrades, which have come about after the school received $200,000 from the Department of Education will include restumping of the building, the removal of mould and asbestos, repair of water damage in the roof and replacement of the roofing and carpets, as well as the completion of some joinery work.

Boost to local economy, bigger site and extra jobs By David Lee CLEARING works have resumed at the site planned for a new $53M Bunnings Warehouse, which is set to see the popular local hardware superstore double in size, providing the community with an economic boost during its construction and once completed, will see the creation of 60 extra jobs. The new building, which is earmarked for 90-92 Benalla Road, is expected to employ 190 staff members, 60 more than the current store thanks to the store doubling in size to 19,400 square metres.

The increased size will house the main warehouse, a larger indoor timber trade sales area, building materials and larger landscape supplies yard and outdoor nursery, as well as an indoor playground, café and parking for over 410 cars. In line with Bunnings’ commitment to sustainability the new Bunnings Warehouse Shepparton will implement a number of energy and water saving design features, including energy efficient fluorescent and LED lighting as well as rainwater harvesting tanks.

Making their beds… and racing them COMFORTABLE RACE… From left, GV Health Child and Adolescent Unit Team, Trish Evans, Angie Moylan, Peter Mackie, Lydia Pathmanathan, Callum Melville and Suparna Khanna who took out first place at the inaugural GV Health Bed Races last week. Photo: Alicia Niglia.

By David Lee IT was a tight and theatrical finish, but GV Health’s Child and Adolescent Unit came out on top as winners at the inaugural GV Health Bed Races last week. The colourful characters in each of the seven teams raced the track at GV Health, but no blood was spilled, only smiles shone through as each team helped to raise close to $4,000 for a new patient bed and mattress and to help celebrate International Nurses Day. GV Health Chief Nurse and Midwifery Officer, Fiona Brew said, “It was the staff who raised the idea and we thought it was a great way to celebrate International Nurses Day. “It was a way for the whole organisation to participate and

celebrate the great work that the nurses do every day. “Although the Child and Adolescent Unit won the race, best dressed went to the surgical team. “This will be the first of many. We plan to run the races every year from now on.” GV Health Foundation Director, Carmel Johnson said, “It’s fantastic that the staff have embraced this program and show that they care about ensuring we are able to achieve our target of replacing 100 of the hospital’s patient beds in the next 12 months. “It was a difficult task for the judges to choose the most creative because they all looked fantastic and went to an enormous amount of trouble to create and display their themes.”

GOTAFE announces outstanding students FOUR students from across four GOTAFE campuses were announced as their respective campuses Outstanding Student of the Year last week, with local, Kerrilyn Bassett taking out the Shepparton campus’ title. Ashley Merbach (Diploma of Theatre Arts) from the Benalla campus, Lisa Campbell (Certificate IV in Animal Control and Regulation) from the Wangaratta campus and Bethany Mugford (Certificate III in Children’s Services) from the Seymour campus joined Kerrilyn (Certificate III in Agriculture; Dairy Production) in receiving the award after being nominated by their teachers and undergoing an interview process. Kerrilyn said, “Receiving the award is a bit overwhelming. It’s good to get recognition for the work that you do. “I’ve always had an interest in animal health and nutrition and have now started my Certificate IV in Agriculture; Dairy Production and next year will continue on to do my diploma. “One thing I really enjoyed about the course last year was taking on a leadership role with some of the younger students and mentoring them. It added a whole other dimension to my studies. “I really enjoy this field. It’s always changing.”

DONATION A HOLE IN ONE… In February this year 120 golfers in 28 teams took to the green for the 27th Rotary Club of Shepparton Central annual Golf Day, where $29,500 was raised to go toward local projects. Last week, the rotary club along with the golf day sponsor, The Good Guys, handed over a $23,000 donation to Community Fund Goulburn Valley, who passed the funds onto GV Health to go toward the redevelopment currently being undertaken on the Emergency Department. Golf Day Chairman, Rob Kelly said, “We had a successful year this year with more numbers attending than last year. The day’s guest speaker, Jason McCartney was a real coup and it was enjoyed and received well by everyone. Without the support of The Good Guys, this day wouldn’t be such a success. They donate $10,000 and a further $6,000 in prizes, which is pretty special. In total, over the past six years we and The Good Guys have donated $125,000 collectively toward the new children’s area of the Emergency Department and plan to keep going for as long as we can.” From left, GV Health Supply Manager, Ken Baxter, Golf Day Chairman, Rob Kelly, The Good Guys Shepparton Store Manager, Rodney Arthur and Rotary Club of Shepparton Central Past President, Mal Watt.

STATE BUDGET

SALT IS KILLING US

Dear Editor, Daniel Andrews’ first State Budget shows exactly why he has gained the reputation as a Premier focused on Melbourne at the expense of rural and regional Victoria. Just 2.9 percent of the state’s major infrastructure projects have been promised for the regions. The state’s agricultural output budget has been cut by 12 percent. The regional development output budget has been cut by 24 percent. The road asset management budget has been cut by 10 percent. The Country Roads and Bridges Program, wild dog bounty and Regional Living Expo have all been completely axed. And the flagship Regional Infrastructure Development Fund is not even additional money. This is not a government that is “governing for all Victorians.” This is a Melbourne Labor Government. Yours sincerely, Peter Walsh Leader of The Nationals Shadow Minister for Agriculture

Dear Editor, Six times more Victorians are dying as a result of high salt intake than on our roads. Each year in Victoria, we consume more than 15,000 tonnes of salt – nearly double the upper limit that’s recommended. But by reducing the amount of salt we consume by 30 percent, we’d save 800 lives each year and $50M in healthcare costs. Salt increases the risk of high blood pressure, affecting one in four Victorians and accounting for half of all strokes, heart disease and chronic kidney disease deaths. With 75 percent of salt in the Australian diet coming from processed foods like pizza, bread and ready-made sauces, it’s easy to see how Victorians are eating more salt than they realise – or need. That’s why VicHealth is launching The State of Salt: The Case for Salt Reduction in Victoria as part of Australia’s commitment to a 30 percent reduction in salt intake by 2025. We will work with governments, health groups, the food industry and the public to increase awareness and strengthen healthy policies. Victoria is leading the way in tackling Australia’s high salt intake, but if we’re serious about achieving the 30 percent target, it’s time for us all to step up and cut back. Talking the salt shaker off the table would be a great first step. Yours sincerely, Jerril Rechter CEO VicHealth

CHILDCARE VS PAID PARENTAL LEAVE Dear Editor, This year’s State Budget claims to be ‘for families,’ but really it is quite the opposite.

I saw one of our ministers on television last week totting on about how people shouldn’t be concerned about the cutting of ‘double dipping’ of paid parental leave, because parents will be ‘subsidised’ through a reduction in child care costs. What a joke! It’s all good and well to say they are lowering the cost of child care, but there are a couple of points I’d like to make. Firstly, our local council have proposed a rise in child care in their latest budget, albeit only a couple of dollars a day, but a rise none the less. My second point, and perhaps the more important of the two, is that there are some people who have agreements with their employer and the government’s input is to simply top up their agreed amount with their employer. This is not ‘double dipping,’ this is trying to get the best possible deal to be sure you can raise your child the best possible way at the beginning of their life. Also, you don’t bring a child into the world one day and pass them off to child care the next. So in essence, reducing child care fees won’t give much to new parents who are relying on the paid parental leave scheme to raise their child to the adequate age of child care. Parents and families are finding it tough enough with rising costs of living, all while being on a minimum wage; so tell me, how is this budget item even close to being ‘for families?’ Yours sincerely, David James Shepparton Want to have your say?

Suspended sausage roll campaign success By David Lee WHEN you’re hungry for pastry, something sweet or want a coffee and are heading past Higgins Bakery, take a moment to think about those less fortunate who cannot simply walk in and satisfy their craving, and then head in and buy a suspended sausage roll to help those in need. Higgins’ started the suspended sausage roll campaign 12 months ago and in that time, more than 1,200 sausage rolls have been purchased by the community and then donated to local charity People Supporting People. The idea came about after the suspended coffee campaign kicked off around the country and became instantly successful, and Higgins’ made the decision to re-work the campaign to something better suited to them. Sally Higgins of Higgins Bakery said, “We were just going to run the campaign through the footy season last year, but it really kicked off so we have decided to continue it. “The way it works is that we offer the community the chance to buy a sausage roll for the reduced price of $2, which is then donated to People Supporting People and they use them in a way they see fit. To make things more interesting, we decided that when someone buys three sausage rolls, we will donate the fourth for free. “After hearing about the suspended coffee campaign we wanted to do something to help those less fortunate, but we figured that no homeless person is going to just walk in and ask for a coffee. It wasn’t as practical for us to offer a coffee so

we ‘rejigged’ it to something that fits and that’s how we introduced the suspended sausage roll. “It’s all about helping those less fortunate. “We’re very humbled by the support of the community and we were so excited to have reached the 1,000 milestone. There are a lot of people out there going through hardships and we’re happy to do our bit.” To help support the campaign and buy a suspended sausage roll, drop into Higgins Bakery at 121 Wyndham Street, Shepparton or at the Private Hospital café, 20 Fitzgerald Street, Shepparton.

ROADSHOW RHONDA HELPS EASE THE BLUES… beyondblue Executive Assistant to the CEO, Cheryl Geels joined other members of the beyondblue team in the region last week, as part of the foundation’s Big Blue Bus tour. The bus, more affectionately known as Roadshow Rhonda, stopped in Tatura and then Shepparton’s Maude Street Mall to pass on advice and information on the seriousness of depression and anxiety. Cheryl said, “It’s good to have had a few locals coming past and to have been able to get the information out there. We’ve been received very well and people have been so supportive. The statistics show that in Australia, one in five people will suffer from a mental illness or know someone who does, so it is something we’re all touched by. The scary thing though is that the suicide statistics are higher than the annual road toll. An average of seven people a week die from suicide, but we are here to help with the prevention of that and to give people hope that there is help out there. Our support service is 24/7 and can be reached via email at www.beyondblue.org.au/getsupport or via our online chat service or by phone on 1300 224 636.” Photo: David Lee

would represent a significant direct investment in the local area,” Mr Marks said. Bunnings Warehouse Shepparton Operations Manager, Deb Thompson said, “The new Bunnings creates a great opportunity for the town as far as employment levels are concerned and it’s exciting for our staff. “It also provides an opportunity to increase our range and offer a much wider choice of products. “Being in the new location will not only be easier for the community to access but will allow for those who utilise public transports to get out to us easily.”

Snapshots of Shepparton’s past SHEPPARTON has been a thriving community for more than 155 years, and throughout that time many people and events have helped to shape the township into the community that it is today. The Adviser, with the help of former local, Marlene Kuhn and the wider community, has decided to share

some of those moments in time with you through a series of photographs. I f you h ave a n old photo g raph of a lo c a l event or moment in time that you would love to see published, feel free to email the image to editorial@sheppartonadviser.com.au

HAVING A BALL… Local resident, Kathy (Foster) Bourke remembers a time when basketball was played in much harsher conditions, but it didn’t stop the Shepparton Athletic Basketball Team from taking out seven consecutive premierships between 1952 and 1958. In the photo on the left, Kathy can be seen receiving the S.J.Perry Cup From Mr A. Perry at the basketball wind up dance in 1959. Kathy captained the team from 1955 and played in all seven premiership wins, remembering how the girls on the team competed in the popular New Year’s Day Carnival at Deakin Reserve each year and used basketball to keep fit during the Winter months. The basketball team began in 1952 with the girls playing B Grade, but being amazingly successful were soon promoted to A Grade and took out their first premiership win in 1952. The girls started in The Harriers, training many mornings at Princess Park in frosty and freezing conditions. To gain match fitness the girls often practised against the boys from Fairley’s and even the soldiers from the drill hall. Kathy remembers clearly riding her bike to Ardmona to play in the wet and windy conditions on a very wintry day. The photo on the right shows the team during Country Week in June, 1952, which included (from left) team Captain, Nell Hoskins, Kathy Foster, Joan Crawford, Shirley Gartner, Gwenda McKellar, June Ballinger and Beryl Larkins. Keeping to true sportsmanship, Kathy Foster ended up marrying Champion Rider, Jim (Scobie) Bourke.

School building gets its first major upgrade continued from front page Once completed, the upgrades will allow the school’s plans to provide the 180 students who utilise the building daily, to experience an open planned learning space to move forward. Principal, Travis Eddy said, “We are expecting the first stage to be finished by the end of this term, with the second and final stage to be completed in term three. “This is a great opportunity for us. We’ve needed the repairs on this building for the last three years and it has taken us those three years to secure the funding, so we are pleased that we are now able to start the works. “As much as it won’t be a brand new facility, the upgrades will mean that it will be up to the standard of some of the newer facilities out there. “By raising some extra funding locally we are also looking at remodelling the inside of the building to be an open planned learning space, so it won’t have the typical hallways with classrooms on either side that have been seen throughout schools for many years now.”

PLEASED ABOUT REPAIRS… Gowrie Street Primary School Principal, Travis Eddy is pleased that major repair and upgrade works for one of the school’s 60 year old buildings has begun to take place. Photo: Alicia Niglia.

Sailing the Pacific Rim

Clockwise from left: . STUNNING TEMPLE… The stunning temple complex of Angkor Wat Cambodia, which was once the administrative centre of the biggest city on earth. Giant heads look out in all directions GOOD NATURED BIG CATS… Bengal tigers at the Sriracha Zoo in Thailand. They say the tigers are good natured but it’s not recommended to get up too close and personal. PEACE AND TRANQUILITY…Much of Asia is Buddhist and giant Buddhas abound throughout Thailand and Vietnam.

WE now enter the por ts of Thailand, Bangkok, Pattaya and Koh Samui. With a population of 67 million, Thailand is predominately Buddhist and its temples and palaces are to be marvelled at; stupas

covered in gold, shine in the hot Thai sun. T h a i l a n d h a s th e l o n g e s t re i g n i n g monarch in the world, King Rama the 9 th (B humibol Adulyadej) who c ame to the throne in 1946, 69 years ago. He is highly revered by his subjects with his photo proudly displayed wherever you go, but the real power is held by an elected government, or was until recently, when a military junta took power after clashes between the supporters of the two main political parties. Thailand’s junta chief has now announced that he has sought permission from the king to lift martial law but the military will still retain sweeping powers. All of this seems to make little difference to daily life in Thailand, life goes on, tourists still arrive in their thousands and local stall holders are still selling their copy watches and t-shirts sporting all the major brand logos, but at a tenth of the cost of the real thing. I have been to Bangkok a number of times so another visit to the Grand Palace was not on my agenda, then I saw a tour to do something quite different; get up close and personal with Bengal tigers. Situated on 100 acres of land the Sriracha Tiger Zoo is home to over 200 Bengal tigers and 100,000 crocodiles and you get to feed a tiger cub in your arms. Sounds good or will it turn out to be another form of animal abuse? We will find out. It’s hot but there are many avenues of shade from the hot sun as you walk among the zoo’s exhibits. It’s school holidays so there are many Thai families and lots of visitors from other countries, with the biggest group seeming to be Chinese. There are a number of circus t ype performances for the huge crowds centering on elephants, crocodiles and tigers. The elephants seem to be right at home performing their feats of strength and yes, you do get to hold a tiger cub on your lap as you feed it from a baby’s milk bottle, seems a win-win situation. As for the crocodile hatchling, well yes it did have plastic tape around its jaws so it could not bite you as you held it on your knee for the camera,

not the ideal situation but I guess it beats being turned into a handbag, as it would in commercial crocodile farms. As for the Bengal tigers, it seems they are the easiest to work with. No whips or other visible means of distress as the ring master puts them through their paces and the crowd loved it. For me, they are such a beautiful animal with their bold markings and such a proud looking beast. Overall yes, an interesting family experience. Our ship now leaves Thailand as we head along the Pacific Rim for Cambodia and Vietnam. We arrive in Sihanoukville Cambodia which was once a small fishing village, but has now developed as Cambodia’s major port. It’s 250 kilometres to the capital Phnom Penh. In 1970, King Sihanouk was overthrown by the Khmer Rouge, whose armies put 4 million Cambodians to death and the civil war lasted until 1977 and was sadly known as “The Killing Fields.” The jewel in the crown for Cambodia is Angkor. This amazing temple administrative complex was built by King Suryavararman II in 1113. Its Khmer engineers built one of the most amazing irrigation projects ever undertaken and it saw the city grow and prosper until around 1200 when it became the biggest city on earth. At the time the second biggest city was Paris, France. But no king is greater than nature, which produced a series of fierce droughts that over the years brought the irrigation system to its knees. People moved away and their houses, made of wood, were reclaimed by the jungle. B u t the stone te mple A ngkor Wat still stands as testament to an amazing people. The tall structure features huge stone columns topped with stone faces of King Suryavarman II looking out in all four directions over the land below. The whole complex just takes your breath away for sheer size and beauty and is one of this world’s must-sees. Until next time, Safe Travel’n, Geoff Vallance

Teams help ‘Say No To Violence’ JOINING TO FIGHT VIOLENCE… From left, Ex-AFL star, Gilbert McAdam and KDFNL President, Wayne Ryan addressing Senior footballers and netballers from Undera and Ardmona at their ‘Say No To Violence’ round over the weekend. Photo: Supplied.

SENIOR footballers and A Grade netballers from Undera and Ardmona lined-up opposite each other at the weekend and shook hands during a player address by Ex-AFL star, Gilbert McAdam as part of the ‘Say No To Violence’ round. Run in conjunction with the Hume Indigenous Family Violence Regional Action Group (HIFVRAG), the initiative, now in its third year, sees clubs sharing in the motto of “you can’t shake a hand with a closed fist,” which is aimed at raising awareness about violence in an attempt to prevent, reduce and respond to violence in the Indigenous and greater communities throughout the region. HIFVRAG’s, Bobby Nicholls said, “The sporting arena is the perfect opportunity to target many Indigenous players and their families in remote areas, while covering a large majority of the region the ‘action group’ operates in.

“The aim is to reduce, prevent, engage and assist our communities, working together to develop partnerships and strategies which will create a future free from violence within our relationships, families and communities as a whole. “The Indigenous Family Violence Regional Action Group takes this opportunity to thank the KDFNL and its affiliated clubs for their commitment with this initiative.” Each senior game will feature the umpires donning specially branded yellow shirts with a “shaking hands” symbol on the back, to create a visible presence on the day. KDFNL President, Wayne Ryan urges all members of the football netball community to Say No To Violence. “The League is proud to be associated with this initiative and our involvement recognises the role of the football and netball community to promote responsible behaviour both on and off field.”

Olympic sized lesson to reach for gold UP to 300 secondary school students from across the region had the chance to learn how to reach Olympic sporting levels yesterday, after being given a once in a lifetime coaching lesson from former Olympians … Run at the Shepparton Sports Precinct as part of the Active Youth Development Program, which is funded by Sport and Recreation Victoria, students from Wanganui Park Secondary College, McGuire College, Shepparton High School and Mooroopna Secondary College (part of the Better Together Alliance) were coached by Olympians, Michelle Brogan (200, 1996 basketball), Tal Karp (2004 football), Selin Kuralay (2004 football), Kyle Vander-Kuyp (2000, 1996 athletics), Stuart Carruthers (1996 hockey), Belinda Hocking (2012, 2008 swimming), Allison Tranquilli (2004 silver, 1996 bronze medallist basketball), Emily Hurtz (2012 hockey), Erin Walklate (2008 badminton), Peter Blackburn (200, 1996 badminton) and Pam Ryan (1972, 1968 and 1964 silver and bronze medallist athletics). The Olympians gave students lessons in athletics, basketball, badminton, football, and hockey and offered a unique insight into the Olympic Games with stories about how they got involved in sport and the positive impact sport has had on their life. Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Cr Dennis Patterson said the event was a fantastic opportunity for young people to find inspiration from Australia’s best athletes. “To have so many Olympic champions in Shepparton on the one day providing expert advice and motivation to our students is terrific. “Each student was coached in their preferred sport, coming away with a special tip from an Olympian that they will cherish for life, and one that may provide that little extra something to motivate them to strive to achieve their own sporting dreams.”

OLYMPIANS TEACHING STUDENTS… Hundreds of students from around the region had the chance to learn skills from Olympians From left, McGuire College Year 7 students, Floyd Vincitorio, Mariem Alhilfi and Cooper Daniels practising their goal shooting skills with the help of Olympians, Tal Karp and Selin Kuralay.

WorkSafe Country Championships this weekend EXCITEMENT is building for this weekend’s 2015 WorkSafe AFL Victoria Country Championships, with reputations set to go on the line. 34 leagues will battle it out at Deakin Reserve on Saturday, May 23 for supremacy and the chance to move up the rankings table, in what looms as the most hotly contested championships yet.

The Geelong Football League will be forced to defend their ‘No.1’ ranking away from home, travelling to Shepparton to take on the might of the Goulburn Football League. The Ovens and Murray League can take another step in their quest for the top when they host the Peninsula Football League in Albury, while at the other end of the table, the Kyabram and District Football League and the Mininera

District Football League will go head-to-head, with plans of moving off the bottom rung. Six leagues in the north east and southern NSW will again take part in interleague encounters on the same day but are not included in the rankings system.

RISING STARS… The local Junior Interleague Teams had their first game at the weekend after the 150 local rising junior football stars were announced last week. Photo: Supplied.

LOCAL rising junior football stars from the U12 to U16 and Youth Girls teams were announced at a special interleague team presentation last week, in time for the squads to kick off the Shepparton District Junior Football League season in their new gear at the weekend. 150 players from Rochester, Tatura, Mooroopna, Shepparton United, Echuca, Kyabram, Shepparton Swans, Shepparton Notre, Northern Angels, Northerners, Orrvale, St Brendans, Kialla United, Guthrie Street and Numurkah took to the grounds at Rochester at the weekend, and will be taking on the Bendigo Junior League on May 31 at Strathfieldsaye in Bendigo. Shepparton and Districts Junior Football League President, Chris Thomas said, “The focus for this year has very much been about building an interleague program and not just training for a couple of weeks to get ready for the match. “We have had Murray Bushrangers coaching staff and AFL Goulburn Murray Football Development Managers assisting the coaches in planning their sessions and the

overall coaching philosophy at each age group. “A coaching matrix developed in the Region Administration Centre has provided a road map to assist the interleague coaches in working with their players, not only on achieving match day success but also to assist their longer term development. “The players were presented with their jumpers, hoodies and training shirts at special presentations last week; a huge imprint on the prestige in which the league values the development of its young talent. “Everything was on track for our interleague teams to perform to the best of their ability at Sunday’s Rochester Carnival and puts them in good stead to perform well again in a couple of weeks in the annual clash against Bendigo Junior Football League at Strathfieldsaye. “It’s also exciting to release our new logo publicly which reflects a more modern approach and branding to our junior football league. “The logo highlights the dynamics of young players, their improvement and the values that the league and clubs aim to follow with People, Participation, Play.”
