NEW PREMISES AFTER 50 YEARS OF CARING FOR YOUR EYES GRAHAM Hill Eyecare is celebrating 50 years in business with a new, modern retail showroom, adding to their current consulting suites. This additional space on Maude Street offers the largest range of frames and sunglasses in the Goulburn Valley. The new facility, including an examination room, is located on the ground floor, adjacent to a free car parking area. Leading optometry practice designer, N athan Rob i nson was em p l oyed to des ig n the innovative space, employing local tradespeople to transform the former Maude Street pharmacy building into a world-class optometry facility.
Graham Hill Eyecare has undergone remarkable change and modernisation over the past half century. Upon graduating from Melbourne University, Graham joined Alan Turner’s Optician business in Wyndham Street, Shepparton in 1965. Progressive growth and an expanding team of optometrists led to the move to 98 Maude Street in 1988, eventually accommodating five optometry examination rooms. After moving to Shepparton in 1997, Mark DePaola joined Graham as a business partner in 2005. With great optimism for the future of the Goulburn Valley, Mark and Graham have continued to expand the
practice and are delighted with the addition of their stunning new showroom. Mark said, “Graham and I are ver y fortunate to have an optometry team that has over 125 years of combined clinical experience. “Along with seven support staff, the six optometrists u t i l i s e t h e l a te s t e q u i p m e nt, te c h n o l o g y a n d knowledge to provide exceptional eye care service. “We’re proud that we run a wholly Sheppartonow n e d b u s i n e s s e m p l oy i n g l o ca l p e o p l e w h o share in our passion for serving the Goulburn Valley community.”

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS
YOUR EYESIGHT DESERVES EXPERT ADVICE THOROUGH and professional eyecare has always been the first priority of the Graham Hill Eyecare team. With over 125 years of combined clinical experience, countless postgraduate qualifications and years of passing this knowledge on to optometry and medical students, your eyesight cannot be in better hands.

LOOKING OUT FOR KIDS OPTOME TRISTS, Mark DePaola and Hayley Supple have a par ticular interest in children’s vision and behavioural optometry (the study of whether a child has the visual skills required for efficient learning) and are experienced at making your child’s eye test friendly, comfortable and thorough. Mark said, “We recommend an eye test for your child before starting school and then at least three yearly throughout the school years. “Our children’s eyes are under more pressure than ever before with the increase in digital screen use in school and at home. It’s critical that visual defects are detected ear ly to ensure clear, comfor table vision and to avoid educational delays,” Mark said.

OPTOMETRISTS, Jenni Sorraghan and Sao Tyler are the resident specialists in advanced contact lens fittings. Jenni said, “For those seeking an alternative to glasses, the latest contact lens technology means that almost every glasses wearer has this option.” Jenni and Sao are also trained in fitting Ortho K contact lenses. “Only wor n over night these lenses reshape the eye su r face and create clea r vision w ithout the daytime use of contact lenses or glasses. Not only an alternative to laser surgery, Ortho K is also the most effective method available to stabilise progressive short sightedness,” Jenni said. Optometrists at Graham Hill Eyecare also regularly refer patients fo r laser su rger y co r rection at the leading clinics in Melbourne. “Assessment, advice and post-surgery care is taken care of here in our Shepparton clinic,” Jenni said.

EARLY DETECTION GRAHAM Hill Eyecare has always employed new technology to ensure early detection of eye disease. “Sight is such a precious part of life, so it is tragic to think that most blindness is preventable just by ensuring a regular eye test,” Graham Hill says. “Most blindness in Australia is caused by cataracts, glaucoma, macula degeneration and diabetic eye disease. Vision loss from these conditions can be per manent but is often easily treated when found early.” Graham and optometrist, Natasha Boase are pictured above with advanced retinal imaging equipment. Natasha says “Our German-engineered 3D retinal imaging device is the same model used by leading eye surgeons. On detection of eye disease we refer to and work closely with visiting specialists to ensure the best visual outcome is reached.”

Dedicated farmers’ market set to open in Shepparton SHEPPARTON’S first dedicated Farmers’ Market is set to launch this November on the grounds of the Shepparton Motor Museum & Collectibles at Emerald Bank. Held on Sunday, November 6 and then every first Sunday of the month there after, the Shepparton Farmers’ Market will have a dedicated focus on connecting local producers and growers with local consumers. Developed in line with the Victorian Farmers’ Market Association guidelines, the Shepparton Farmers’ Market will seek to be formally recognised as an accredited market within its first few months of operation. With the g rowing interest in the Fa r m e r s’ M a rke t a n d S low F o o d movement. Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of where their food comes from and have a desire to get to know and support their local farmers. Market coordinator, Helen Moutafis said, “We are keen to hear from any producers or makers out there with unique or regional specific produce. We are currently excepting expressions of interest to join the market. We want to hear
from growers, producers, bakers, wine makers, brewers and cheese makers. The Shepparton Farmers’ Market will be the perfect place to connect consumers with the growers and makers of the Goulburn Valley region.” With the inclusion of the Shepparton Farmers’ Market on the monthly calendar, it will be now possible to stock up on a fortnightly basis in Greater Shepparton with the Mooroopna Farmers’ Market held at Ferrari Park on the third Sunday of the month.

COUNCIL EL EC T IONS A ND T HE NE W SHEPPARTON ART MUSEUM Dear Editor, Your pages have stories of the forthcoming Greater Shepparton Council elections. I don’t really want to enter the local political fray, but I feel that I must answer the few candidates who appear to be standing on a platform of opposition to the new Shepparton Art Museum (SAM). This important project is not just about Shepparton having a landmark facility for the arts, though that is very valuable in
Page 6 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1324 Wednesday, October 12, 2016
itself as it will bring a much greater range of exhibitions and educational programs to the region. It is also about the economic and social development of the City and the whole Goulburn Valley area. Almost $34M of the $40M target has already been committed to the new SAM by the three levels of government plus private and philanthropic supporters. This is going to flow straight into the community, as is the continuing and substantial flow of revenue identified in the comprehensive business case prepared for the project on behalf of the council and Regional Development Victoria. The exciting architectural competition to design the new facility at the entrance to the city is well underway - shortlisted plans will be exhibited for community comment in the new year. the new SAM will be a great meeting place for the community, for local celebrations and events, just as Federation Square is for Melbourne. It will bring increased tourism to the region, which is great for local businesses. It will be an invaluable resource for local schools and universities. It will provide recognition, pride and visibility for local Indigenous arts and artists, as well as for the many immigrant communities that have made Shepparton their home. It will stimulate other creative industries in the region and be a source of great civic pride. What’s not to like about this? Frankly I can’t understand why every candidate is not cheering for the new SAM. Those who oppose it seem not to want Shepparton to prosper. Yours sincerely, Carrillo Gantner AO Shepparton
MORE TRANSPARENCY Dear Editor, G r e a t e r S h e p p a r t o n C o u n c i l ’s transparency can be improved by requiring councillors to provide regular reports at the ordinary monthly meetings about the work of the council committees on which they sit. One important role of a councillor is to attend Advisory and Section 8 Committees, which are made up of residents and local organisations with expertise and an interest in making our municipality a better place. Many Victorian councils require councillors to provide verbal and written reports, something I believe has been seriously lacking from our ordinary council meetings.
In my opinion, it is about time Greater Shepparton City Council did this also. During the past several years I have included a report at public meetings about the work of the committees I attend, which I know has been appreciated by the residents who contribute. Live streaming of council meetings will start soon, which is even more of a reason to increase the information provided to the public in council meetings. Yours sincerely, Jenny Houlihan G re at e r She p par t o n Cit y Co un c il councillor candidate
CHANGE THE FACE OF OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Dear Editor, With the increase of positions on Greater Shepparton City Council from seven to nine, the voters of Greater Shepparton have the unique opportunity to change the face of our local government. T here have been many promises at previous elections from candidates to ‘work as a team’ and to be ‘united.’ As a council candidate at this election, I want to see those promises become a reality for the benefit of our municipality. I h ave t he c om mu n it y le ad e r s h ip experience over many years to work as part of a united team to make Greater Shepparton even greater. It is pleasing to see a wonderfully talented group of candidates seeking election, most of whom with the ability to exercise common sense and an unbiased judgement on issues to reach and support a consensus view; people like Bruce Giovanetti, Seema Abdullah, Darren Linton, Kim O’Keefe, Anthony Brophy and Shelley Sutton to name a few. I too, possess these traits and I would be honoured to receive your number one vote at this election. No more hollow promises of unity like years past. It’s up to you, the voters of Greater Shepparton to choose nine people who have a proven record of collaboration, open-m i nded ness a nd com mon sense through their community service experience. Only this positive, collaborative approach from your council over the next four years will ensure a better way to a greater Shepparton. Yours sincerely, Jason Kelly G re at e r She p par t o n Cit y Co un c il councilor candidate Want to have your say? Email your letters to the Editor to editorial@sheppartonadviser.com.au.

WITH an onslaught of reality cooking shows in recent years there has been an explosive interest in food culture Australia wide. Quality food has always been a passion for many though and this greater new interest has been welcomed by those who have already had this love. Twenty-six years ago, Shepparton’s Finer Fruit and Chook World first opened their doors. I remember the new complex and the excitement that came with their arrival at that time. It’s hard to believe they’re celebrating their 26th birthday already. Both Finer Fruit and Chook World have that love of
food, that passion, pride and devotion to providing the best quality products to their customers. Chook World proprietor, Paul Sim said, “We began our business back in 1990 and have held strong to our philosophy that our products should only be of the highest quality but at the best prices possible. We happily offer a 100 percent money back guarantee to our customers simply because we are so confident in the quality we offer.” Finer Fruit business owner, Sammy Rachele said, “Our business success is a direct result of the hard work and
Page 8 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1324 Wednesday, October 12, 2016
dedication our family has put in over the years, including prior to Finer Fruit even opening. Our family has been firmly entrenched in this local district as growers since the 1950’s and our knowledge and networks developed over those years has meant that we have been able to excel in our business. We understand both sides of the trade and our family partnership provides a strong foundation for success and longevity.” Take advantage of Finer Fruit and Chook World’s 26th birthday celebration as they offer extra savings this week.

Shelley Sutton What is your plan of action to give the people of Greater Shepparton the things that they believe are important? Water is our most important issue,
without water our region dies but with water Greater Shepparton will boom. Options on reducing the 25 percent youth unemployment to be explored and homelessness in our municipality must be addressed. Every town matters must make sure to include all towns in the municipality in planning the future. The revitalisation of the CBD and free on-street parking is a priority. The CBD is the heart of Greater Shepparton and is dying. We need to stop this from happening and explore all the options that are on the table before it is too late. To stop the waste of council funds we need to form a cohesive council that will work together for the betterment of Greater Shepparton. Keep the budget on track and not waste m illions of dollars on employing consultants and lawyers. I wa nt ou r cou nc i l to b e at t he foref ront i n m a k i ng pro c e sse s a nd procedures easier for our ratepayers, businesses and developers. What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? T he M aude St reet M all needs action now before it is too late. Malls all over Australia and the world have been re - opened or rev it a l ised. T he c on s u lt at ion s h ave b e e n don e t h e consultants reports have been received so we need to get on with the job and get the mall going again. Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? They say that development is always good but t h is development , at t h is stage, is detrimental to Shepparton. We have a CBD that is dying; we have an IGA supermarket already in that vicinity that wants to expand so why would we be allowing development of another Big W type complex in this area. We need to look at having a retail st udy to act ually work out what is needed as we go forward. - What is your vision for Greater Shepparton? My vision for Greater Shepparton is of a vibrant exciting region that has full employment and no one is homeless. Shepparton will have free parking and a revitalised CBD with no vacant shops. The mall will either have slow moving traffic through to High Street and /or it will be an interesting hub with lots of different areas for tables and chairs, playgrounds, outdoor art installations which the community will love and use. The farming community will have their water back and be prosperous. S m a l ler tow n s w i l l b e pl ac e s t h at provide community neighbourhoods to residents with great schooling, medical services and recreation areas. We will have a state-of-the-art hospitals, great schools, u niversities a fast train to Melbourne and the Shepparton by-pass will be a reality.

Fern Summer What is your plan of action to give the people of Greater Shepparton the things that they believe are important? As your elected representative, I don’t intend to go under the radar by rubber stamping council decisions. I have a proven t rack re cord of ch a l leng i ng recommendations that are not in the best interests of the community. For example, despite cont ribut i ng to a g rassroots support campaign to save SPC , I said no to closing A ndrew Fairley Avenue for the exclusive use of the company. Furthermore, although I am a strong
and con nec ted /integ rated in their multicultural fabric. Some of the important agendas for me are to empower youth and families, support people to secure employment, create opportunities, develop knowledge a nd sk ills , have access to safe environments through programs that build parks, recreation and education facilities. Also to set up a small grant that provides capital for farmers to develop value-add marketing initiatives; This also mean investing in invest in research and develop policies that help to clarify what is good for our region’s future and to respond to our region’s growing diversity and multicultural communities.
advocate for the ar ts, I am the only councillor who spoke out against the new SAM, because I believe the business case is flawed. Respectful consultation is the key to decision making. Within 8 years, our borrowings have gone from zero, to approximately $1M in interest per annum. For a long time zero borrowings justified higher rates, but, thanks to our last two successive councils, we now have high rates and less capacity to borrow for more worthy capital projects as the opportunity arises. What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? S omet h i ng shou ld have been done about the mall decades ago. What was once the beating heart of our city has deteriorated into a barren wasteland. This year’s budget allocation of $300,000 to activate the mall is merely a band aid, but
And finally, above all, breaking barriers and building the future for all through social participation, positive socialisation, inclusive tolerance, and involving the c o m mu n it y i n d e c i s io n m a k i n g by developing different ways to communicate and develop comprehensive cross cultural collaborations. What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? I nfrastructure sharing through developi ng faci l it ie s for busi ne ss is ver y i mpor t a nt bec ause it en ha nces knowledge exchange, supports community integration, and broadens understanding of different ways of living. Critical to this
the number of empty shops in Wyndham Street and High Street suggests opening it to traffic may not be the solution either. I suggest mall traders discuss real ways of increasing foot traffic. Council can play an important role in facilitating these conversations. Some examples could be extended trading hours, complimentary parking tickets, giveaways or residential living areas above shops. Residential developments will subsidise rent/rates, activate the mall, stimulate the economy, reduce traffic congestion, encourage a more professional atmosphere and help retain our youth population. - Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? For me, the question comes down to two parts - would an objection hold up development in an area that is expecting
will be to introduce a rate rebate scheme that will support business and households that need it. Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? Boost the manufacturing skills and business workforces by promoting new manufacturing and business facilities is very important because it will create jobs for local people. Critical to this will be to examine the numbers of people who will access it, the distances to it and why along Numurkah Road and what may a popular view about it and it will cost small businesses in town.
high growth over the next 20 years, or, would allowing two similar developments this early on, spell the demise of IGA and have a detrimental impact on our CBD? I firmly believe competition is a healthy thing, but IGA are the only independently ow ned supermarket chain lef t in Australia and they give a lot back into the community.

Meet the next election candidates Tom Day What is your plan of action to give the people of Greater Shepparton the things that they believe are important? Greater Shepparton is slipping behind other regional centres like Bendigo and the state average for economic growth. This means less jobs, less income, less investment and less customers for local business. We need to make sure we have enough jobs for our youth and families to stay here and help our community grow and thrive. My main focus is finding how we can harness the great cultural diversity in Shepparton, supporting
Fran Smullen What is your plan of action to give the people of Greater Shepparton the things that they believe are important? I believe it is a critical role of council to listen to its constituents, to their ideas, views and opinions, to consult, promote and advocate for community. If elected, I bring a commitment to listen to community and work collaboratively
our youth and drawing on the innovative ideas and connections of all of our citizens. I want to establish a youth leadership forum supported by council to train young leaders from across all cultures in Greater Shepparton, and support them to come up with practical ideas to the problems Shepparton’s youth face. It’s important that kids from Indigenous, refugee and other cultural backgrounds are encouraged to learn to live and work together as local citizens. I also want to promote ideas to attract new industries to Shepparton in agribusiness and clean energy. What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? The Maude Street Mall is an asset to the community of Greater Shepparton as a convenient place to shop and meet friends. Council needs to provide incentives, such as
with fellow councillors, to ensure a group of nine working together as a purpose driven, effective team. I don’t claim to know everything there is to know, a good reason to be part of a team that works closely together with the CEO and council staff. I believe mutual respect among councillors, the CEO, council executive and staff is critical to achieve the best possible outcomes for our municipality. What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? Recently I was part of the Beneath the Wisteria communit y conversation that considered matters related to the Maude Street

lower rates, for new and exciting business to establish themselves there to cater for a new generation of residents. We could also look at local grants for creative business that want to base themselves in the mall and some cultural activities and events we can run in the mall to attract people. Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? Competition is healthy and I welcome it. As long as we create a fair local environment for small to medium businesses too. Investment in our town brings with it increased employment, lower prices and more choices for residents. This supermarket will also support Shepparton’s growth beyond the main town centre.
What is your vision for Greater Shepparton? Greater Shepparton has all the ingredients to become a vibrant model 21st century regional city. We have a culturally diverse community with an ancient Indigenous heritage, a young population looking for opportunities, and good access to water and land. We are only two hours from Melbourne. We will be an international leader in Indigenous tourism, with visitors from all over Australia and the world coming here to be immersed in our ancient culture. I believe we can draw on these assets to make sure Shepparton thrives as a growing, educated and healthy community, sustainably connected to the land and attracting new innovative industries and creating jobs for our youth.
Mall. My thought on leaving the conversation was what would be lost if the mall no longer existed? A community space where people can gather, a place to rest and take a break, under the wisteria, in the shade of trees, an inviting space that will be accessed, utilised and enjoyed by young and old.
indicate it is warranted. Residents like to access shops and amenities close by. Progress has the capacity to overtake existing business, in this case IGA and shopping in the city centre. Weighing up the value of pursuing progress, and the planning of better places to live is always a fine balance and needs to be carefully considered.
Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? I believe council has already paved the way to increase retail space in northern Shepparton. Projected population numbers for the area
What is your vision for Greater Shepparton? My vision is of a municipality of opportunity for everyone, where everyone is proud to belong and call Greater Shepparton home. Where safe and attractive community spaces, and economic opportunities are shared by all.

Dallas Moore What is your plan of action to give the people of Greater Shepparton the things that they believe are important? On every decision to be made I will read all the supporting documentation, listen to those involved and make a decision in the best interest of the rate payers of Greater Shepparton What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? As with all businesses in the Greater Shepparton the council needs to assist and develop them. In relation to the CBD what I am hearing is the parking metres are causing great concern, they are causing an uneven playing field to other shopping precincts in the Greater Shepparton area. I would request an audited figure of the revenue raised by council from parking fees and fines in the CBD, once I know what this figure is I would examine the financial statements of the Greater Shepparton City Council, identify what expenses appear to be unnecessary or wasteful the obvious is
only way for the community will be truly heard and represented by their council is to elect nine like-minded, common sense people who will debate issues freely before reaching a consensus. They must approach each issue with an open mind, not come to the council chamber with a predetermined point of view. This is the proper representation the community demands from their councillors and if elected it is what I will deliver every single day.
the mall. The first step in the debate is to decide the purpose of the mall. Is it a meeting place for people gather and talk and interact, which lends to the argument of it remaining in its current form of pedestrian only? Or is it primarily a shopping precinct, which could receive an injection of customers with traffic being reintroduced? We need to listen to and help our business people to revitalise our CBD so it becomes the dynamic shopping precinct it was always meant to be.
What is your opinion on the Maude Street Mall? I will not profess to have all the answers to revitalise Shepparton’s CBD but I know that something has to be done in regards to
Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? Any decision on allowing a Woolworths to be established in Numurkah Road has to be weighted on the impact such a development will have on the future viability of Fairleys
IGA and other nearby businesses. Councillors need to be mindful of this balance in any decision making process, whilst always encouraging future economic investment. What is your vision for Greater Shepparton? I want to restore the community’s confidence and trust in our council, which is below the state average. I want to improve efficiency and eliminate any barriers to increase economic investment in our region. I want Greater Shepparton to be an important partner in the development of high-speed rail to our municipality. I want Greater Shepparton to continue to build on its sportstourism culture that delivers so much money annually into our local economy. Ultimately, I want Greater Shepparton to be a welcoming and thriving community, eliciting pride by its residents and admiration by its visitors.

By taking this approach the bottom line of the Greater Shepparton City Council will not be affected so there would be no need to increase Council Rates to cover lost revenue. Once these parking metres were removed I would want to hear from the shop keepers around the CBD to determine what affect if any this action has had, what the rate payers thoughts were and from the shop keepers of other shopping precincts in Shepparton such as Riverside, Market Place etc. to see if any negative impact If further action is needed I would take the same approach. Where do you stand with allowing a larger supermarket to be constructed along Numurkah Road? I am not across this project enough to make a comment at this stage but I would take the same approach as above. What is your vision for Greater Shepparton? Safe, vibrant and progressive community to raise a family. A place where your children can gain the education of their choice and the job of their choice in Greater Shepparton.

Goulburn Valley libraries library services manager, Jenny Wyllie was so excited to tell me about the vast number of free services available to library members. Jenny said, “We are actually a part of a consortium of public libraries called ‘Swift,’ in which we share a library management system and catalogues. This means that if someone is sitting at home, they can put a hold on a book that may come from as far as Wodonga or Mildura and this system means that effectively there are two and a half million items that members can access.
“At the Shepparton branch, we have a genealogy room with a subscription to Ancestry Australia for members to use and access. We also have other subscriptions which members can even access from home. These include a variety of e-magazines, e-books, audio books, Clue Detective Agency and computer classes. To access any of these services, along with free internet within the library, or book, DVD and audio book borrowing, all that is required is a library card which is completely free and can be applied for online.” The Goulburn Valley Libraries Shepparton branch is brimming with exciting books, plenty of computers for free use and comfortable seating and lounging spaces for users to enjoy.

McGuire College rings inC 50 years of education
50 YEARS AND GOING STRONG... McGuire College. Photo: Supplied.
MCGUIRE College is proudly celebrating its 50th anniversary this coming weekend of October 15 and 16. Now 50 years after Shepparton South Technical School (former name of McGuire College) first opened its doors at the Shepparton Showgrounds, McGuire College has cemented its place as one of the leaders and innovators in secondary education for students of Greater Shepparton. Shepparton South Technical School commenced in February 1966 at the Sheppar ton showgrounds and was acknowledged by the director of technical education, Mr. J.L. Keppert in April 1967 as being “one of the best temporary schools in the state.” Shepparton South’ went on to build on these comments as the new school was opened on the current McGuire College in Wilmot Road in July 1968. The school opened on its new site with 430 boys and a range of completed and still to be completed buildings and facilities. In its new premises in Wilmot Road, South Shepparton Technical School went from strength to strength. In 1972 it went on to be recognised by the then Minister of Education, Lindsay Thompson, as “one of the finest technical schools to be found anywhere…experimenting in wireless transmission, film making and many other
Page 18 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1324 Wednesday, October 12, 2016
things entirely new, even to the technical school curriculum.” In 1990, Shepparton South Technical School became the Shepparton South Secondary College and aligned very closely with fundamental changes taking place within the school. This was the next phase in the ongoing and continuous quest for the school to meet and support the needs of the students of Greater Shepparton. In 1997, Shepparton South Secondary College was renamed McGuire College as the school embraced the opportunity to again reinvigorate itself to meet the needs of the local community. Since 1997 McGuire College has supported the students of the local area and Greater Shepparton to be the best they can be. Current principal, Brad Moyle is proud to lead an innovative and forward thinking secondary college that is striving to “develop students to be lifetime learners, leaders and contributors to our local and global world.” Brad said, “Our students and school are well placed in the heart of Victoria to leverage real personal growth and development both personally and for the Goulburn Valley region. McGuire College’s approach is one of a contemporar y educational practice, which is supported across the Better Together Alliance, and in partnership with Shepparton High School, Wanganui Secondary College, Mooroopna Secondary College, GOTAFE and Latrobe University.
“Our partnerships with other education providers, local businesses and organisations, ensure that our students have access to a broad range of opportunities to support their diverse needs, backgrounds and aspirations. “McGuire College today, proudly builds on a history of innovation as we develop our approach to ‘STEM’ (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education, to support our students and their ambitions. McGuire College is recognised as one of 30 STEM catalysts secondary schools across Victoria. “The wellbeing and welfare of students is our primary consideration as the college embraces and delivers research based and validated programs such as ‘School Wide Positive Behaviour and Supports’ to its 460 students, embedding the ‘REAL’ values of Respect, Environment, Accountability and Learning. “McGuire College is proud to have served the community of Shepparton for the past 50 years and with our students of today and tomorrow, we look forward to continuing to provide the youth of Shepparton with an opportunity to learn, engage and grow within an environment of high expectations supported by a caring and dedicated staff team. “Our students are our champions and for 50 years now have demonstrated just how well McGuire College is preparing students for the world beyond schooling.”

Every Minute Counts at McGuire College STUDENT learning doesn’t happen by chance and it is this understanding that is leading McGuire College students to achieve outstanding results in all areas of the curriculum. McGuire College has a very ambitious Strategic Plan that maps the development of students and staff over a four year period. A key ingredient in this plan is the use of research based, contemporary teaching and learning prac tices. In a very deliberate effort to ensure each student is given every opportunity to succeed, the college has engaged with leading practitioners and researchers from Australia and abroad to support both teaching and learning. McGuire College principal, Brad Moyle said, “The ongoing development of our practices is essential to the success of our students. We have ensured that our staff are well equipped to provide best practice teaching and learning opportunities for our students. “Every opportunity for student learning is important at McGuire College and supporting teachers with the most relevant research and practice from a global

Rumbalara walk-off RUMBALARA Aboriginal Cooperative and the Heart Foundation have engaged in a partnership to launch the free Rumbalara Heart Foundation walking group. Open for all members of the community to join, the walking group aims to engage the largest Indigenous community in regional Victoria to tackle health issues in a social environment. Rumbalara Aboriginal Cooperative CEO, Kim Sedick said the team was proud to be setting a best practice standard for active

workplaces. “We’re committed to allowing our workforce of more than 200 people to take an hour out of their work day to participate in Heart Foundation walking group. “With the Australian Bureau of Statistics data showing that 77 percent of adults in the Shepparton region are not getting enough physical activity, this partnership is going to be a critical one in encouraging the Shepparton people to move more and sit less.”
Rumbalara Aboriginal Cooperative healthy lifestyles team leader, Hope Briggs said being a part of the walking group helps you stay motivated. “It’s easy to say ‘I’ll give my walk a miss today,’ however, knowing there is a group of people waiting for you can provide that extra motivation needed to get out the door,” Ms Briggs said.

Hundreds to converge on Shepparton continued from front page MUSTER coordinator, Derek Smith said, “The ACC was launched in September 2006, when some forward thinking caravanners perceived a need for a truly representative national organisation to meet the wide variety of interests and needs of caravanners. In a history making move in 2011 the ACC opened its ranks
to all RVers. “Membership is available to anyone who ow ns a recreational vehicle whether it be a camper-trailer, caravan, fifth-wheeler, campervan or motor home, and currently stands at about 3,000 members. “The national muster gives the chance for the members to get together to strive to improve RV facilities Australia wide and to discuss RV related issues. “Seminars play an
important role at the muster allowing the dissemination of important information, tips and RV common sense. “We are inviting the community to come along to our mini-market, which will be held on Sunday, October 16 from 9am to 1pm.” For further information, read the latest updates on w w w. au s t r a l i a n c a r ava n c lu b . c o m . au o r c o n t a c t events2016@australiancaravanclub.com.au

Seventy-five days at sea IT WASN’T quite 75 days, they did get off at some very interesting places, but for Mick and Ros Hosa of Shepparton their 75 day cruise was just wonderful. They chose a Princess Cruise on the Sun Princess that would take them half way around the world, with the first leg circling the Pacific. From Sydney they sailed to Darwin then on to Borneo and Hong Kong. But a storm was approaching so they left Hong Kong early to avoid it and the storm soon turned into a super typhoon. It just so
happened that one of the guests on their dining table was a retired sea captain and he filled them in on what to expect and how the ship would avoid the typhoon. They sailed to Busan in South Korea. The seas were relatively calm. Then it was on to Shanghai and Beijing in China. The ship had 2,000 passengers and 700 staff. Their cabin was excellent and so was the food, and the ship with two show-lounges catered for a wide variety of entertainment. Various entertainers would join the ship at the ports of call and they enjoyed everything from the classics to pop. The ships staff were soon on first name terms and their cruise director, Mark Turner used to live in Shepparton. They sailed to Vladivostok. They spoke no Russian but a few dollars to a taxi driver soon saw them on a tour. They were taken to a vast university that catered for 60,000 staff and students, which was set on huge parklands and overlooked the sea. Vladivostok is a very pretty place. They came across a brass band and veterans marching down the main street. Soon, a wreath laying ceremony was underway. They were not sure what it was for but they knew to stand for the national anthem as everyone else did. The next stop was the railway station. It’s one of the stops for the Trans-Siberian Express and it was a beautiful building with a mural painted on the ceiling. There was a museum that also sold everything including blocks of amber and jewellery. They then sailed to Hakodate in Japan and then on to Yokohama. There, they took a hopon-hop-off bus to get around. There were cherry trees everywhere but not yet in flower. Out to sea again where the headed to Alaska. Their first stop was Anchorage. Ros says it was like stepping back in time. They went shopping and talked with the locals who told the story of the early days when it was like the wild west. There were lots of gun fights, so the law was brought in but they only worked Monday to Friday so most of the gun fights were held at the weekends. Next they travelled to Glacier Bay and it was wonderful. As they sailed along there were whales, dolphins, salmon and that amazing glacier. As they sailed up close there was a huge cracking sound and then a big slab of ice calved off the glacier face falling into the
wit h Geoff Vallance
sea with a massive splash. They spent eight hours in Glacier Bay and it was worth every minute. Next was Juneau. They hired a float plane and took to the shies to see the glaciers from on high. Ros says the scenery was spectacular with the glaciers surrounded by huge forests; the vastness of Alaska was amazing. They then sailed for Vancouver and the capital Victoria Island. A must see is Buchart Gardens. Everything was in full flower including 1,600 flowering hanging baskets. They plant them out each year and then sell them off to raise funds for the hospital. They then headed to San Francisco, where a must visit is the fisherman wharf. The seafood was incredible and so are the street performers so they watched on as they enjoyed the fish and chips. Next, Ros and Mick visited China Town. It was absolutely huge and the food was great and Mick says that you could enjoy a banquet for just $10 a head. They got back on the open sea and their next stop was to be Hawaii. They had four days there and time to enjoy all the islands and some incredible beaches. They then went onto Tahiti. It’s very laid back. Local dancers entertained and it was great. They enjoyed more island life the next day as they arrived at Bora Bora and for Mick it was like being in heaven. They took a local bus with the driver doing the commentary. There were great beaches and some wonderful homes, many owned by movie stars. They saw one that had been owned by Marlon Brando. Mick and Ros then headed on the final leg of their journey as they sailed to New Zealand. It’s a very pretty place and they loved the Bay of Island. On the trip back to Australia and some rough weather, a huge wave reached the 14th floor but the ship took it in her stride. They arrived back in Sydney, safe and well. Mick and Ros would like to thank Lyn McNaught from Helloworld Travel in Mooroopna for arranging everything. They loved their 75 day cruise and would do it all over again. P.S. On a previous cruise they sailed for 104 days. Until next time, Safe Travel’n, Geoff Vallance.
Clockwise from top left: TOWN ON WATER… A floating town opposite Mick and Ros’ mooring place at Kota Kinabalu. SIZE DOESN’T COUNT… A tiny shop inside the railway station in Vladivostok. BUNKERS TO TAKE SHELTER… Bunkers constructed during WWII are now used for shelter during cyclones in Bora Bora. ICY VIEW… Another glacier from the air near Juneau. WHAT A CRUISE... Mick and Ros Hosa of Shepparton enjoying their 75 day cruise. MAKING MUSIC… Most sea days we had ukulele lessons and each leg of the cruise culminated in a concert.

Celebrating 15 years in the fight to beat cancer EVENT TO BEAT CANCER… From left, Relay for Life team development coordinator, Edra Sefton and chair manager, Rachael Rowe are inviting the community to come help them celebrate the event’s 15th year and help beat cancer. Photo: David Lee.
By Xavier Chalkley W HEN I think about ways of giving back to the community, donating money always springs to mind. Although, when I think of giving money, I never think about meeting and walking with other people to remember, celebrate and give back. At Relay for Life we have the chance to do this. Relay for life is an annual event that runs in Shepparton and gives people a chance to donate vital money to cancer resea rch , as wel l as prov id i ng t he opportunity to meet new people all while keeping fit. Relay for Life has been running for the last 14 years in Shepparton and now takes place in over 20 countries with 4 million participants annually. All money raised goes to the Cancer Council. This money is used for things like supporting and caring for cancer patients and their families, while also
working to prevent and find a cure for cancer. Relay for Life chair manager, Rachael Rowe said “We are celebrating our 15th year with a bang in memory of those who have lost their battle with cancer while also thanking those who participate in the event every year.” “Shepparton alone has raised more than $2.5M since Relay for Life first started.” Relay For Life is an overnight event, which is held locally at Princess Park in Shepparton. There are many great things happening with live music, fireworks and games. It begins at 4pm on October 15 with the first lap being walked by carers and survivors of cancer. Relay for Life concludes the next day at 10am. So get involved, register a team or just bring yourself along. For more information or to register, visit www.fundraising.cancer. org.au

Jacobson extends Dunlop supercar series lead at Bathurst A STORMING drive to second place in the 250km Dunlop Supercar Series race at Bathurst’s Mount Panorama at the weekend, has enabled Prodrive Racing Australia FG -X Falcon driver, Garry Jacobson to substantially extend his championship lead with just one round remaining. The Mount Panorama podium finish has capped off a superb Bathurst round for the 24 year old Shepparton based Supercar driver. He set the pace to beat during practice, set a new record qualifying pace on his way to his maiden Bathurst pole position and raced to second place after a challenging 41 lap race which was won by Paul Dumbrell. A f ter get ti ng of f to a slow sta r t from the front row, Jacobson set about re-claiming track position during the opening laps, engaging in fierce side by side battles with several competitors including his PRA team mate and title rival, Jack Le Brocq. A major crash by Dunlop Series rookie, Jack Smith saw Jacobson take an early fuel stop, taking full advantage of the ensuing Safety Car period. Jacobson reeled off a series of fast laps before making a second stop later in the race, the team strategy positioning him within reach of the top five. He spent the remainder of the race making up positions with a number of commanding overtaking moves, running out of race laps while in second place, finishing 11 seconds behind race winner Dumbrell. With his team mate, LeBrocq finishing seventh, Jacobson’s fifth podium result of his breakthrough 2016 season has given him a 151 point lead in the Dunlop Supercar Series title fight. This has set up a thrilling title decider to be held at Sydney Olympic Park final in December. It wasn’t an easy race by any means according to Jacobson. “I struggled from the start as I was one tyre short after having flat spotted one in qualifying so we had to use one from practice. That

really had an effect on the car’s balance,” Jacobson said. “A f ter the first stop I was really enjoying the race, it was all about gaining track position and thanks to the great work by my engineer Dave Paterson and the team in the pits, we were able to race up to second place. I am in a good position heading into the final round but I will only believe that I have won the title when I actually do it. My team has given me a great car all season so I am sure that Sydney will be no different.” Jacobson competes in the 2016 Dunlop Supercar Series thanks to the valued support of sponsors MGA Insurance, C h a l le n ge r Va lve s a nd A c t u ator s , McQuinn Electrical, Bike Gallery and Performance Health Care.
WITH trials for the GV Suns 2017 season beginning at the weekend, the club is calling for interest from the community for upcoming trials and is anticipating strong interest and a bumper 2017 season. GV Suns player trials commenced from Saturday, October 8 and will continue for three consecutive weeks, with trials to determine the 2017 squads for U12, U13, U14, U15, U16, U18, U20 and Seniors teams as well as U9, U10 and U11 Skills Acquisition Program members. GV Suns vice president, Paul Uniacke said, “These are competitive selection trials to identif y the best talent to represent the Goulburn Valley at the elite National Premier Leagues level in 2017. We encourage anyone interested in playing at the highest level to come and try out. “The only difference between a talented regional player and a talented metro player is opportunity. “For years local families have been travelling to Melbourne three or more times a week so their kids can play for metro clubs and enjoy the benefits of professionally qualified coaches and the challenge of testing themselves against the best week in, week out. “We have provided a more accessible option and from 2017 the opportunity for local talent just gets better.
“The 2017 schedule will see us travel to Melbourne for only nine of our 27 matches. “ We w i l l host 18 rou nd s at t he Shepparton Sports Precinct, with some of Australia’s oldest and strongest soccer clubs travelling to Shepparton to take on the GV Suns. Thanks to the $20M upgrade of the Shepparton Sports Precinct our facilities will be second to none.” All trials are at John McEwen Reserve, Brauman Street, Shepparton. All junior participants must wear a white t-shirt, football boots and shin guards and bring a water bottle.

Riding for a cause By Xavier Chalkley TATURA Milk Industries Ltd will hold its annual Tatura 200 bike ride next month, with the event expected to produce muchneeded funds for the local community. The event includes many types of bike rides for all abilities of riding from the 200km ride to a 25km family bike ride. A 5km walk is also on offer if the bike is not your thing. Event manager, Georgia Odgers believes this year could be one of the biggest yet. “Over 300 are going to attend the event,” she said. Odgers also expected to beat the target of $138,000 raised from the event last year. “The money donated from
the day is a huge fundraiser and is very important to local charities. “This year a major donation from the event will go towards the prevention of domestic violence and the support for children and women affected.” The bike ride is a great way to get a bit of fitness, while also enjoying the outdoors and raising money for a very good cause. T he Tat u ra 20 0 w ill be held on November 5 with the first item of the day being the 200km ride around the Goulburn Valley area, commencing at 7am.
