By David Lee THE strength of investment is continuing to rise across the region and with news that POP Design Studios alone is about to help kick off between $9.2M and $21.2M worth of projects, there is a strong indication being shown that investors are seeing Shepparton as an area worth investing in. With seven projects worth $9.2M already in the works and a single $12M project about to be signed off on, residents will soon see a few changes across the city including a $500,000 project at one of Shepparton’s leading shopping

complexes, the $1.5M extension of a medical practice as well as other constructions and extensions to buildings. As well as big changes and multi-millions being spent across the region, many businesses are expanding and growing including POP Design Studios, who is showing just how much support they are throwing behind the local community, having just employed new staff and will continue to do so to help accommodate for the business’ growth in Shepparton and expansion of the business to Continued on page 14 Melbourne.

A passion for our veterans By David Lee IT was his involvement in the army as a National Serviceman from 1970, where he toured Vietnam with the 4th Infantry Battalion in 1971, that was the core reason new RSL President, Bob Wilkie became involved with the RSL 10 years ago, and plans on continuing his passion for ensuring that local veterans are taken care of, going forward. Growing up in Kyabram, his role with National Australia Bank (NAB) saw him relocate many times to areas including Melbourne, Tasmania, Broadford, Bendigo and Sale before he settled in Shepparton in 2000 with his wife, Wendy and four children, Paul, Julia, Lee and Courtney. During his 38 years with the NAB, Bob held many positions before retiring in 2005. It was then that Bob decided to take up a position on the executive committee at the RSL where he gained a solid understanding of the workings of the RSL. As well as his interest in the RSL, Bob closely follows his football, keeping a watchful eye on the Western Bulldogs and enjoys spending time with his four grandchildren. Bob said, “I took on the role as president because I saw it as a bit of a challenge and I have an interest in the operational side of the RSL as well as the welfare of our veterans. Having the experience behind me made it an easy decision. “I’m looking forward to continuing the long term viability of the club and at ensuring that all of our veterans are looked after.”

GOTAFE gets $4.3M to strengthen jobs in the region IN an attempt to boost the region’s skilled populace by 1,300 people, the Andrews Labor Government announced it would be giving a $4.3M boost for two innovative programs at Shepparton’s GOTAFE. As part of the funding, $2.4M will help to deliver training that better meets the needs of the growing dairy industry, and a further $1.9M will go toward supporting improved services to help young people in the region get a job. Minister for Training and Skills, Steve Herbert, announced the grants from the Labor Government’s $50M TAFE Back to Work Fund during a visit to the institute’s Shepparton campus last week. Steve said, “TAFEs mean skills and skills mean jobs. We’re supporting GOTAFE to provide more training that gives locals the opportunity to develop the skills they need to get a job in growing industries. “This project, part of our $50M TAFE Back to Work Fund, demonstrates what can be

achieved when Government, TAFE institutes and industry work together to support new jobs across the Goulburn Valley.” Independent Member for Shepparton, Suzanna Sheed said, “This is terrific news for the Shepparton District. “We know that unemployment is a major issue in the region but we also know that there are jobs available, particularly in the region’s

growing dairy industry. “This investment will enable GOTAFE Shepparton to partner with industry to develop training programs that create more job-ready skilled workers. “By preventing disengagement we can make an impact on unemployment levels and secure a brighter future for our young people.”

LAST week was the week for ministers, with the Shadow Minister for Education, Nick Wakeling, Shadow Minister for Roads and Infrastructure, Ryan Smith and Shadow Parliamentary Secretary for Rural and Regional Transport, Simon Ramsay meeting with local groups, educators, council and industry professionals. Member for Northern Victoria, Wendy Lovell said, “The visit from Nick Wakeling saw a very productive day of meetings with local groups on education. “It was an opportunity for Nick to see some of the schools in the area, as well as hear from the Better Together School Alliance, the Shepparton Neighbourhood Primary Schools and the Lighthouse Project group on the future needs of education in Greater Shepparton. “It was fantastic to have the ministers here to listen to our concerns,” Ms Lovell said. Ryan said, “The visit was a great opportunity to speak with the council and Committee for Greater Shepparton about what’s needed here in terms of not just infrastructure but the important things that need to be focussed on in order for Shepparton to thrive.

“Shepparton shouldn’t be overlooked. “The visit was also a great opportunity to hear the details surrounding the need for an AQIS approved facility here in the Goulburn Valley. In principle it sounds like something that I would support. It sounds like a low capital cost to get it up and running, and something that the freight industry would be interested in.” Simon said, “My role is to look at ways that we can improve the efficiency and productivity of moving freight and passengers both on road and rail. We know the Shepparton Bypass is an important project; it has been since 1995. The rail is also equally as important for Shepparton. “It’s important to have an adequate road and rail network to move product more efficiently and productively to be globally competitive. “It’s essential that we move product from the food bowl here in Shepparton efficiently and profitably to our ports in Melbourne and the bypass and rail networks are an important part of making that happen.”

By David Lee THE Bendigo Bank’s Greater Shepparton Connected Community program donated $3,000 to the Freemasons Victoria Eshcol Lodge last week, which will go toward the lodge’s goal of raising enough funds to purchase a car for the GV Health Breast Cancer Support Nurse and providing wigs for women going through cancer treatment. Freemasons Victoria Eshcol Lodge Worshipal Master, Allan Thomson said, “With the pressures that the hospital fleet vehicles have on them it’s often difficult for the Breast Cancer Nurse to gain access to them and thus she uses her own vehicle to see patients. We thought that the hospital should have a dedicated vehicle for that purpose and so we are doing what we can to accommodate for that. “After buying the car, anything further we raise we are going to be putting toward a ‘library,’ which will provide wigs for women going through cancer treatment to help them maintain their self confidence. “We greatly appreciate this donation that will go toward helping us achieve our goal.”

Bendigo Bank Shepparton Branch Manager, Geoff Maunder said, “Through the Greater Shepparton Connected Community program we help raise funds that go back into the community and this donation is a part of that. “We thought it was a worthy cause that will best benefit the community.” To help towards fundraising efforts for

the car, Freemasons Victoria Eshcol Lodge are holding a charity dinner and auction on Wednesday, July 22 from 6:30pm at the GV Hotel. Attendees will be treated to a two course meal, live entertainment and excitement from a special celebrity guest. Cost is $50 per person.

RE-OPENING OF THE PHILIPPINE HOUSE AND MUSEUM Dear Editor, Cong rat u lations to t he Ph ilippi ne community on the restoration and re-opening of the unique Philippine House and Museum (est. 1988) last Friday, June 12, which was also Philippines Independence Day. Greater Shepparton City Council officers have worked with the community to restore the buildings to better than before closure in 2005. Bill and Nora McCarthy have worked tirelessly since closure to attract funding to restore this valuable community asset and they are to be applauded for their tenacity in discussion with many planners and partners over the past nine years. I visited the place last Friday afternoon to peals of laughter, music and copious amounts of food – the dream is alive. The Philippine community is so happy for the broader community that has given them support before and during closure and the house and museum will be a welcoming meeting place for all to enjoy into the future. The addition of Arnold Gough’s newly framed photographs of all of the former unique International Village centres to the museum walls is such a bonus for our longterm memories. Thank you to all concerned – we look forward to this as a place to celebrate our multi- cultural connectedness. Yours sincerely, Patricia Moran Shepparton

SOLUTION TO VOLUNTEERING Dear Editor, In response to Rod Andrew’s letter in The Adviser on Wednesday, June 10 he states he isn’t happy with the CFA’s leadership and quit his volunteering job. He is like so many others who found that volunteering isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. However, without volunteers Australia would grind to a halt. There are those who want to be dictators and lord it over their fellows. The system won’t change as long as there are volunteers to take the place of those who quit. So, what is the remedy? It is useless to write letters, protest in the street, form yet another political party to work for change. These have all been tried and failed. The solution is to quit volunteering. If enough people just sit at home and didn’t volunteer their services, the system would soon get the message and meaningful change would come. Isn’t it written some place that we need to come out of the system? This is the easiest and simplest way to institute the changes that are necessary. Oh yes, and don’t do any volunteering that requires you to have a criminal history check. These aren’t worth the paper they’re written on. They only identify those who have been caught. The system doesn’t want to deal properly with criminals, so all must prove their innocence. The system needs a complete overhaul not the patch-ups that are now occurring. Yours sincerely, Jay Nauss Glen Aplin

By David Lee THE four Better Together Alliance schools helped to further strengthen their alliance with education across the region, signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with GOTAFE and La Trobe University last week. The signing of the MOU between the schools will mean the strengthening of public education through joint planning and the development of seamless pathways, which will create real opportunities for young people across the region. The six schools will work together as part of the alliance to develop a range of specific programs to meet the demands of the developing youth and address the needs of emerging economies in Greater Shepparton through relationships with key employers and agencies. Shepparton High School Principal, Phil Squire spoke on behalf of the Better Together Alliance schools saying, “Over the last 15 months in particular the principals of the four Shepparton state secondary schools have been working on the most effective way to respond to the recommendations of the Goulburn Valley Ministerial Taskforce, which touched on the educational sector. “As a group we can do better for our young people

and our community and this is a significant step toward addressing some of the challenges that have arisen. “We believe we are better together to enrich the experience of our students.” La Trobe University Vice Chancellor, Professor John Dewar said, “This is a really important initiative. “In coming together, the Shepparton region has now achieved something unique. I don’t know of any other part of our country where there is this sort of commitment to cooperation between the different educational sectors. “The reason we are doing this is for the young people across this region. “It’s about creating as seamless pathways as we can to put the youth on the pathways to employment. “Given the high quality relationships that exist between the schools and universities, this is achievable.” GOTAFE CEO, Paul Culpan said, “The signing of the MOU will be the beginning of working through some of the challenges facing this region, particularly youth unemployment and skill shortages. “This is a really significant event in the history of the development of public education in Shepparton. This will benefit thousands of young people in future years.”

ON THE back of the announcement that Greater Shepparton City Council’s, Cr Michael Polan would be resigning from his position as councillor earlier this month, the vacancy is set to be filled by yet another countback of votes from the October 2012 election. With a countback having already taken place after the dismissal of Milvan Muto from the council, the countback to fill Cr Polan’s position will take place at 2:30pm on Monday, July 6 at the Council Board Room, with eligible candidates given the opportunity to appoint scrutineers to attend and observe the countback. Having been with council since 2009, Cr Polan undertook the role of mayor in 2011 and 2012 and will spend his last day as a councillor on June 30. Cr Polan said, “I am very grateful to the community and council for the opportunity which has been shown to me over my time as councillor and mayor. “In my time as councillor of Greater Shepparton, I am particularly proud of my involvement in the brave decision to build a new Shepparton Arts Museum (SAM). This decision is a sign of our community maturing and looking at ways to diversify our economy. Undertaking such bold ventures as a new SAM, demonstrates our desire to be a key regional city with Greater Shepparton providing first-class facilities that will enhance the lifestyle that our region offers,” Cr Polan said. Returning Officer Mick Bastian said, “Countbacks are used to fill vacancies in multi-councillor wards and unsubdivided municipalities if a councillor leaves office before a scheduled general election. “Those candidates who were unsuccessful at the general election and are still eligible to be elected will be included in the countback,” Mick said. The result of the countback will be published online at vec.vic.gov. au and also in local newspapers including

THe DUnCAn BROs… Along High Street in 1956, just east of where Target stands today, stood one of only two spray pump manufacturers in town at the time, Duncan Bros Engineers. Owned by Alec and Tom Duncan, the engineering and steel fabrication business made spray pumps that were used in the many orchards surrounding the town, which were specially designed and made with a patented air blast fan, making them unique to every other kind of spray pump in town. In the photo on the left (dropped in by Tallygaroopna resident, Paul Heenan), you can see the patented spray pumps lining the street out the front of the engineering business, and beside it, Slee’s Electrical Service (owned by Jack and Bill Slee, brothers of former mayor, Murray Slee), which if you look closely on the left of the storefront’s sign, you can see Slee’s was a Repco agent. The photo on the right shows the inside of Duncan Bros Engineers. Conditions were very different to those in manufacturing and fabricating firms today.

want to know if the berries are from China or New Zealand. Under the proposed new scheme a product could contain 4 percent or 49.9 percent of overseas ingredients and still be labelled less than 50 percent overseas’ ingredients, but no one would know where the product is from. “Consumers want to know exactly where their food is coming from, with the majority of consumers preferring Australian produced

food to overseas food. “I encourage all those in Murray who are interested in the issue to get online and fill out a country of origin food labelling community survey,” Dr Stone said. To fill out the survey, visit www.industry. gov.au/cool or request a hardcopy by calling 13 28 46. Submissions close on Friday, July 3, 2015.

Locals ready to ‘stomp’ the MCG By David Lee A GROUP of local residents are readying themselves to take on up to 7,343 steps at the MCG, during this year’s, Stadium Stomp MCG. Bryan Kennedy, Glenn Denham and a group of 10 others, including one 71 year old woman, will tackle Australia’s longest consecutive stair climb challenge on Sunday, July 5 to help raise funds for the Royal Children’s Hospital. Bryan said, “We took on the challenge last year and helped to raise just over $5,000 for the Royal Children’s Hospital. We’ve had ties with the hospital, and it’s a very worthwhile charity. “It’s a challenge for us but it’s good to have something to focus towards. Knowing it’s

helping towards a charity organisation makes it all worthwhile. “It’s an amazing event to be able to take on the steps at the MCG. “It’s about having fun and doing something for yourself and achieving something for a charity.” Glenn said, “Last year we took on the lower level stairs, but some of us are going to be running or walking the higher level this year. “We all train together to get prepared and are all at reasonable fitness levels. “Having the group really helps to keep everybody motivated. We encourage and support each other to finish.” To ma ke a donat ion , v isit w w w. bkperformanceconditioning.com.au and click on the donate link.

By David Lee THE Notre Dame College Junior Football Club now have a state-of-the-art home ground to call their own, after the school spent the last six months redeveloping an oval just north of Shepparton. The new grounds, which include fencing, coaches boxes, change rooms, netting behind the goal posts and upgrading of the oval itself stood as just a green field with goal posts at either end at the beginning of the year, but once the first stage of upgrades are completed, the next stage of the project is set to see the inclusion of a car parking area and tiered spectator seating. Notre Dame College Junior Football Club President, Will Phillips said, “The junior club have played at council grounds for most of the club’s history, so when these grounds became

available we couldn’t pass it by. “We are working towards making it a good, high quality facility and developing it for the use of the junior football club. “The kids will now have a home ground to be proud of and will be using it for many years to come.” Notre Dame College Property and Facilities Manager, Paul Christensen said, “We have spent a considerable amount of money on getting the grounds up to this standard, but it’s important that the club has a place to call their own. “We really appreciate the support from Principal, John Cortese in getting things going with this project. “In another season or two it will be in tiptop shape, but we’re well underway in getting it there.”

with Matthew Chilcott

BENALLA v MOOROOPNA

BOTH these sides will be fresh coming off the break, with Benalla looking to continue their run up the ladder with a crunch game against Mooroopna at Benalla Showgrounds. The Saints, who have won two out of their last five games, will be looking for a solid showing here. Benalla’s Josh Mellington with 13 goals in two games will be a focal point up forward along with Nick Warnock posing a threat. The Martyns, James, Brook and Sam, continue their early season form, with Sam in some eyes being the best midfielder in the competition at the moment. Mooroopna were disappointing in their last game against Tatura and the week off had come at a good time for the Cats, as they look to regroup and start the second half of the year with a win. Getting starts hasn’t been a strong point for Mooroopna and if they can be in sync early they’ll be hard to stop. Simon Russell, Kaine Greening get plenty of the footy and Shane McDonald who missed last game will be a welcomed addition back for the Cats. Expect a tough battle with possibly home ground advantage favouring the Saints.

EUROA v SHEPPARTON EUROA will be out to get back on the winners list here as the Shepparton Bears head over to Memorial Oval with both sides coming off last round losses. The Magpies gave away a five goal lead into the second term against second on the ladder, Kyabram and weren’t able to peg the margin back. John Ikupu looks to have slotted in beautifully at the nest as he dominates most ruck contests in games, with Horsburgh, Bamford, and Cunningham sharking Ikupu’s tap work. The much talked about Euroa defense ranks seventh in the competition. Shepparton, who have been disappointing this year on the back of a solid platform established last season, will come over to Euroa with an expectation to be competitive as the corresponding clash last year resulted in a 40 point win to Euroa. Consistent performers for the Bears have been Holland, Hiscock,

Allan, Walsh. The Bears with all stars aligning will welcome back Shannon Byrnes from VFL duties into their line-up for much needed experience around the football.

TATURA v SHEPPARTON SWANS AFTER copping a 95 point loss to Kyabram a week prior the Swans came out firing in their game against Seymour on the back of a season high 11 goals from gun full forward Justin Maddern. Maddern is by far the most dangerous forward in the comp, with his gazelle like running ability and nous for goal. The Swans needed a response from the group after the Bombers loss and coach, Hayden Best would be pleased, as with the move of Riordan (four goals) up forward. Quade Johnstone, BJ Squire and Brady Childs are having fine seasons. Tatura who remain winless this season nearly caused a massive upset against Mooroopna in Round 9 and are playing out their games much more fluently than what they were at the start of year. Goal kicking remains a concern for the Bulldogs ranking 12th in attack, captain Billy Lovell has been sneaking down forward to convert on a number of occasions this year but will need more from Tautala, Paul Kirby and Cornwall to beat the Swans.

ECHUCA v MANSFIELD ECHUCA caused a boil-over in their super win against Shepparton United at Vic Park last weekend. The Murray Bombers continue to flirt with form throughout this season but with Ben Reid, Jordan Florance and Scotty Beattie all prominent players, United will prove no easy beat as the Eagles travel to Echuca. Such has been the headlines of this season’s draw, Mansfield will have travelled after Saturday’s game a total of 518kms in a month, so travel won’t be a factor. Mansfield were poor last weekend against Rochester and will rely on Ben Fagan, Mark Jones, George Burbury and the Hine boys to get back on the winners list. Look for the possible debut for the Eagles’ 2005 All Australian and former Adelaide Crow, Ben Rutten.
