A WORRYING appearance of Shepparton’s wellbeing has been revealed in The Yearbook 2015: Progress in Australian Regions, recently released by the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development. The document exposed our city as having had the lowest increase in household
incomes, seeing a decrease in the numbers of youths earning and learning, seeing a decline in residents, had an increase in welfare dependency, having a low number of those with vocational or higher education, seeing a reduction in home ownership and there are more adults who are now smokers, although,
on a brighter note Shepparton has had growth in the number of new businesses. According to the yearbook, the Shepparton region had the lowest increase in median weekly household income in the country, rising by only $11, from $903 in 2001 to $914 Continued on page 14 in 2011.

Spotlight on youth hub ideas YOUNG people aged between 15 and 24 in Greater Shepparton are being urged to have their say in the planning of a youth hub for the region. G reater Sheppa r ton L ig ht house is leading plans to establish a youth hub after it was identified as a priority by many of the people who took part in the recent 1,000 Conversations consultation. A foru m will be held on Tuesday, January 19 from 4pm to 6pm, at Wesley Hall in Maude Street, Shepparton, to give young people the chance to have input into planning for the hub. Lighthouse Executive Officer, Lisa McKenzie is encouraging young people to come along and have their say on the elements they would like to see in a local youth centre. “There are so many options and there is the opportunity to create something
that uniquely suits our municipality. A place to study and work with tutors and mentors, somewhere to learn and practice music, a centre to access information and services, or a place to relax. The choices are wide and varied and we want to understand what would b est ser ve ou r you ng p eople ,’’ M rs McKenzie said. She pointed out that there was no funding or site yet identified for the hub but there was a strong desire in the community to bring the project to fruition. “Where there is a will there is a way and if this is what our young people and their families are asking for, then we will give it our best shot to deliver,’’ Mrs McKenzie said. For more information, phone Lisa McKenzie on 0427 212 651.

A WARNING is being issued to local residents after a male of Caucasian appearance entered several properties in the Balmoral Street area in Kialla Park over the weekend. One resident caught the man in their yard at approximately 6am and approached the man asking
what he was doing. The offender replied he was doing a community service and taking out all the blue bins and then exited the yard before fleeing the street. All blue bins in the street prior to the residence where the man was approached had been taken out and were on the nature strip.

OPINION
Letters to the Editor
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH Dear Editor, Recently the Liberal Party’s Federal Member for Murray, Dr Sharman Stone renewed calls for a decentralisation policy at about the same time as the Opposition spokesman for Rural Affairs, Joel Fitzgibbon called for the government to provide more support to struggling rural towns. It would appear, therefore, that both sides of politics agree there is a need to do more for rural and regional Australia. Why then have both Labor and the coalition failed miserably to deliver on this recognised need over the past decade? Perhaps it is an inability to understand what makes country communities ‘tick’… what makes them vibrant. There is no better present example than the Murray region of southern New South Wales, where farmers and the communities which rely on them are at breaking point for no reason other than poor government water policy.
We welcome letters to the Editor but they are not guaranteed to be included and may be edited for reasons of style or content. Letters will not be eligible for consideration if they contain defamatory material, or information of a personal nature which is not in the public domain.
Successive governments have tried to implement a Murray-Darling Basin Plan that has serious flaws yet, just like the infamous pink batts scandal, they’re prepared to let it roll on and waste billions of dollars rather than admit their mistakes. The problem is exacerbated because the Murray-Darling Basin Authority (MDBA), which has responsibility for the plan, flatly refuses to accurately and adequately report on the plan’s social and economic impacts. Is it any wonder communities are calling for a Royal Commission into the activities of the MDBA? Surely enough is enough. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if politicians could cut the rhetoric and make meaningful, tough decisions that support rural communities, instead of pandering to minority, city-based lobby groups? In our region, that means acknowledging the need to make adjustments to the basin plan so both the environment and our communities
are protected. Rural Australians do not want hand outs, we just want a fair go. Is that too much to ask? Yours sincerely, Shelley Scoullar Deniliquin
FUNDING STILL NEEDED URGENTLY Dear Editor, With reference to the front page story ‘No new money’ that appeared in the local media on December 5 last year that reported on the Health Minister’s visit to GV Health. It was disappointing to read that our local Member for Shepparton District, Suzanna Sheed made the statement that when it came to funding for GV Health she “would be making a lot of noise in the next two years.” The statement begs the question what has Ms Sheed been doing since being elected more than a year ago? It also raises questions over whether Ms Sheed has given up hope of getting funding for our hospital any sooner
than December 2017. We cannot wait another two years. The capacity of GV Health is being stretched to the limit now and patients have to be transferred to other hospitals as far away as Bendigo and Melbourne due to the lack of funding for the expansion of our local hospital. Thankfully the Member for Northern Vic toria, Wendy L ovell has on ma ny occasions pushed for funding for GV Health and will, I believe, continue to press for the much needed funding that is required to give residents in the area a health service that is equal to what is being received in other districts of similar size. Yours sincerely, Kevin Reid Shepparton Want to have your say? Email your letters to the Editor to editorial@sheppartonadviser.com.au. Max 100 words
$7.5M roundabout works begin ALL local road users will benefit from the rebuild of the roundabout at Doyles Road and the Midland Highway in Shepparton East, with construction beginning on Monday. Federal Member for Murray, Dr Sharman Stone said, “This roundabout has been congested and slow for too
long. Shepparton has seen a number of new businesses open in that area and it is the major Shepparton by-pass diverting transports out of the central business area and on up to the Newell Highway. The $7.5M upgrade will make the roundabout safer and easier to use. “It is also great news that an Echuca Road construction
Page 8 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1285 Wednesday, January 13, 2016
business has won the contract. “Shepparton is a large regional transport hub and we need the infrastructure to support our industry. “Construction of the roundabout should be finished by the middle of 2016. In the meantime some patience will be required, but all will be well at the end.”

Over 1,000 tennis players to converge on Shepparton OVER 1,000 competitors, predominantly aged 50+, will converge on our region in January, for the Australian Seniors Tennis National Teams Carnival and Individual Championships. Lifestyle Communities is a proud supporter and sponsor of this prestigious event, providing prizes, signage, static display and a talk at the presentation dinner on Friday, January 15 at Eastbank Centre, Shepparton. “For the past twelve years around Victoria, and a little over three years in Shepparton, Lifestyle Communities has been providing resort-style living for over 50s,” Lifestyle Communities Sales Manager for Shepparton, Mitch Kennedy said. “These communities are designed for active, independent people, over 50, and our
5 star amenities support a lifestyle of fun and vitality. For example, residents have access to an indoor pool and spa, tennis court, bowling green, fully equipped gym, movie theatre, and we even have a bus and motor boat for home owners to use. “We offer brand new, low maintenance, affordable homes, situated amongst a community that is warm, welcoming, safe and secure.” M it c h s ay s t he N at ion a l Te n n i s Championships is a wonderful way to raise awareness of these vibrant communities, while supporting an activity which aligns with their philosophy on active seniors.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE… Far left, South Shepparton Community Centre Committee of Management President, Barbara Harwood, and third from left, Shepparton Community Centre Coordinator, Kiki Passenhein with participants of various programs run at the centre. Photo: Alicia Niglia.
THEY’VE come a long way from a small, volunteer organisation, which relied on raising money through its coffee sales, to a funded not-for-profit organisation, with a full committee of nine members. “This has to be the highlight of the year for us, because it is always such a struggle for a community house such as ours to fill its committee,” South Shepparton Community Centre Coordinator, Kiki Passenheim said. “We are fortunate to have achieved this milestone, and what it means, in real terms, is that we have the full spectrum of skills covered. Each committee member can have their own portfolio. “This makes the whole establishment more efficient and more compliant, and allows us to help develop the skills of each member,” Kiki said.
The house’s philosophy is to provide empowerment to members of the community through education and social contact. Committee of Management President, Barbara Harwood said, “We have seen people come to us broken and down-trodden, who end up opening their own business and returning here to volunteer their skills. It’s a lovely cycle to witness.” With funding often determined by the size of the committee, the future certainly looks bright for South Shepparton Community Centre. If you are interested in attending any of their free or low cost classes, please visit South Shepparton Community Centre, 11 Service Street, Shepparton or phone 5821 6172 for more information.

Let your kids start the year healthy IT is possible to pack your child a nutritious lunch box that will actually come home at the end of the day empty and eaten. Try these tips: - Think about what your child likes to eat at home and try to translate that into a lunch box option. - Vegetables are often overlooked in the lunch box. Try cutting up some carrot sticks or putting in a handful of cherry tomatoes. - While the humble apple is a great lunch box filler

(sturdy and hard to squash), consider cutting softer fruit up and putting it into a smaller container for protection. Berries and kiwi fruit survive very well this way. - Dairy can be hard to include, particularly in hot weather. If you can’t safely get a yoghurt into the lunch box, make sure you offer dairy when they come home from school. - Last night’s leftovers in a container with a small spoon can make a welcome change to the parade of endless sandwiches.
- Try putting together a small picnic in their lunch box slices of tomato, ham, grated carrot, grated cheese and some bread and butter - so they can build their own sandwich. - Stick to water in the drink bottle - most juices are full of sugar and make the drink-bottle smelly. They also don’t do a very good job of quenching thirst. - Homemade pikelets are a great snack - easy to make ahead of time, they’re filling and don’t require any extra toppings.

The
president’s
car
By David Lee IT has been a dream of local Toolamba resident, Bryce Johnston for many years to own a 1964 Lincoln Continental and finally, two months ago, he realised his dream of owning the car known as the president’s car. The sleek, black, all electric Lincoln with suicide doors, 430 big block engine, 3 speed auto with six seats and 22 inch wheels is the same type of vehicle that John F Kennedy was being driven in when he was assassinated. Bryce said, “I’ve wanted one for years and
came across one online a few months ago so I went and picked it up. “It’s a great car to go cruising in with mates. “It has been painted black and had rims put on, otherwise it is as it was when it came out of the factory. “You look at it and just go wow it is just a big slab of metal. It’s a very unique vehicle and nowadays you don’t get many unique vehicles being made. It’s one of only three Lincoln’s in Shepparton but is the only 1964 model that I know of in the area.”

Carols to fall quiet in corridors continued from front page
RELIGIOUS RUMBLE… The nativity scene put on each year by Bourchier Street Primary School could have become a thing of the past due to the Victorian Government’s introduction of new guidelines for special religious instruction that would mean specific religious teachings could not take place in public schools across the state. Although the school says it will continue its tradition as they are inclusive of all religions. Photo: Madeleine Caccianiga.
Page 18 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1285 Wednesday, January 13, 2016
THE guidelines, which will see certain r e l i g i o u s p r o g r a m s s c r ap p e d f r o m mainstream teaching this year, state that government schools must not promote any pa r ticu la r relig ious prac tice, denomination or sect, and must be open to adherents of any philosophy, religion or faith. As part of this, any group seeking to facilitate, lead or provide instruction in programs that are based on distinctive religious tenets and beliefs must conduct the teachings either during lunch time or out-of-school hours, where this is provided by the school and supervised by school staff. M a ny s chools t h roug hout G re ater S he pp a r ton hold a n nu a l C h r i s t m a s conc er t s , but ac cord i ng to t he new guidelines carols including O Holy Night, We Three Kings and Away in a Manger will no longer be able to be taught during
school hours as they welcome the birth of Jesus Christ and promote Christianity. Bourchier Street Primary School is one local school that has been carrying on their Christmas tradition of a Christmas concert for their students for more than 20 years, and while the guidelines suggest that cer tain praise music (Christmas carols) are not to be included in the teachings, the school has always offered a holistic inclusion of all religions in their Christmas celebrations. B ou r c h i e r S t r e e t P r i m a r y S c ho ol Pr i ncipa l , Jud it h Pa rk sa id , “ W h i le we will be following these suggested guidelines, traditions are important to the school. “We respect the diversit y that our community brings and will be continuing our tradition in Wesley Church as we have done for the last 23 years and we will continue our inclusive teachings of carols.”
Freemasons open their doors with a Burns Supper
COMMUNITY WELCOME… Lodge Eschol Worshipful Master, Allan Thomson is welcoming new prospective members and members of the community to the annual Burns Supper. Photo: Emma Hillier.
“IT is a commonly held perception that the Freemasons are a secretive society. However we are much more than this perception, and are interested to lay bare what we actually represent,” Lodge Eschol Worshipful Master, Allan Thomson said. Existing for over 300 years, Freemasonry is the oldest fraternal organisation in the world, with over five million members across the globe. “The primary teaching of Masonry is that each person must be judged as an individual, on his own merits, and that such factors as race, national origin, religious creed, social status or wealth are incidental to the person’s character,” Allan said. “Freemason members are part of a society rich in tradition, history and community care.” For example, in 2015, through its
fundraising efforts, Lodge Eshcol was able to present a dedicated car to the Breast Cancer Nurses, who are employed at GV Health. “This year, we are raising funds for local charities and on Saturday, January 30, we will present a ‘Burns Supper’, which celebrates the life and works of poet, Robert Burns. The evening will feature the Goulburn Valley Pipes and Drums, the Balmoral Highland Dancers and offers the chance to sample haggis, ‘neeps’ and ‘tatties’. There are also three different grades of whisky up for grabs, as a door prize. “It’s a night of festivities,” Allan said, “And we welcome all interested parties.” For tickets, contact Allan Thomson on 0402 284 797. The Lodge Eschol is situated at 161 Welsford Street, Shepparton.

It may not be Everest, but a ‘major’ challenge By David Lee TAKING on Mt Everest in what is known as an ‘Everesting’ challenge is a difficult feat; travelling 319km and reaching an elevation of 8,848m. This is exactly what former local, Daniel Bovalino did at the beginning of the year at Dookie’s Mt Major and although it wasn’t Mt Everest, it was still a ‘major’ challenge. On January 3, Daniel took to TV Access Road, riding repetitively up and down Mt Major a total of 53 times, which took him 19hrs 56mins and 36secs. Daniel said, “2015 had been a big year for me. It is safe to say, 2015 was a year of massive flux for me but among it all I made sure that I always did one thing. I rode my bike. “As the weather started to warm up from what was a solid winter, I began to make time for some longer rides. Life was changing a lot for me in Adelaide and the long rides seemed to help me make sense of it all. “I have known about Everesting since it became a ‘thing’ and never really considered doing it until one of those days when I was on a long ride in early November. “I knew I was going to be home in Shepparton over the Christmas and New Year period. I knew I had good form in the hills for climbing. I didn’t tell anyone, but that day in November I decided that I was going to Everest my favourite hill climb, Mt Major in Dookie.
“I started the climb just after 4am on Sunday, January 3, but before I began I knelt down to touch the road. I then said under my breath ‘To the original people whose land this once belonged, I honour you and respect you all, here and now. To you Mt Major, I have a promise, keep me safe today and keep me strong and I will in return show the world how beautiful you truly are.’ And with that I kissed the road, got on my bike and pressed the start button on my Garmin. “All day my average time to get to the top was 14 to 15 minutes. On the final lap I kicked it hard. I felt good so I kept upping the pace and for the first time all day I raised my heart rate up into a higher zone, which felt amazing after being consistent all day. I finished the last lap in 10mins 42secs. It was my fastest time for the entire day. “When I got to the bottom, I touched that same bit of road where I started and I thanked Mt Major for looking after me all day. “There is no other hill I would have rather been on for 20 hours. I’ll always come back because I left a part of me up there that day and I’ll never forget that. “I have now been accepted in the world Everesting Hall of Fame for being the first person to Everest Mt Major. “For me, I really just want to see more people using that amazing hill for fitness and pleasure as it has given me so much of that over the years that I have been cycling here in Greater Shepparton.”

Vegas in sight for local pinup By David Lee AFTER placing third in the Australian Tattoo Expo Pinup Pageant in Melbourne recently, local resident, Nicole Dawson has made it through to the top 50 for voter’s choice for the Viva Las Vegas Pinup competition. Going up against 150 other ladies all vying for a spot in the competition, Nicole now has to get votes from the public to help her join 11 others who will be heading to Vegas for a chance to take out the competition’s coveted title. Nicole said, “I’m pretty nervous and excited. “Being selected from over 150 pinup ladies, many of them professional models, means so much. It feels as though I have been ‘validated.’ “It is a huge honour to be chosen and means I will get to share my story with many more people and hopefully make a difference to somebody, help them along on their
journey or be a role model to some. Even though life may take many terrible turns, you can always turn it around. “My husband, Athan, who passed away in a road accident last year, was a very positive person and he believed in me. This one is for him. “Now that I have made the top 50, my goal is to get to the top 12 that will compete in Las Vegas for the coveted title. This means promoting myself and my message and asking people to take the time out to vote for me on the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly weekender website. This involves clicking on the pinup competition and selecting my profile, ‘Catalina Colie,’ to vote and confirming this in your email. “I hope to compete successfully and be able to use my profile to promote road safety awareness. “My favourite part of competing in pageants is actually coming up with my theme. I like to be comedic and a little
kooky and then presenting that on stage. I love sharing laughs with the other pinup ladies and being able to share my story and make life long friends. “I have a lot of support in Shepparton and my two friends, Moo and Candi have been helping me come up with themes and spreading the word to help me gain votes to get through. “Going to compete in Vegas would be such an adventure and I’d love to share what ‘Team Shepparton’ get up to if we make it through. “Voting is for a limited time only and I thank everyone for their support. Also, getting through means I have to start saving money and try to gain some sponsorship to help me get to Las Vegas.” To show your support and vote for Nicole (Catalina), visit www.vivalasvegas.net/pin-up-contest
