The project included an additional 41,000sqm of glasshouse and an extension of 1,300sqm to the existing packing hall and the installation of a new packing line, which will see an additional 3.5 million kilograms of tomatoes produced each year. Continued on page 20

Students get a taste of agribusiness LAST week, twenty year nine students from Mooroopna Secondary College had the chance to get a taste of local agribusiness, with students taking part in a camp at the University of Melbourne Dookie Campus. The camp allowed students to have a hands-on learning experience involving laboratory and field work and exposure to new technology and take part in a range of workshops including sheep handling and a tour of the robotic dairy. Students lived on campus at Dookie and had the opportunity to immerse themselves in university life for a few days. Lig hthouse executive of ficer, L isa Mckenzie said the camp was developed in direct response to Lighthouse’s 1,000 Conversations initiative in 2015 which showed a poor understanding by students, parents and teachers about jobs on offer in the agriculture and environment sectors. “The students also had the opportunity to i nt erac t a nd e ng a ge w it h lo c a l professionals working in the Agricultural and Environmental sectors as part of an Ag Café experience. “T he camp aims to have students

GOTAFE implementing initiatives to strengthen local contribution THE board of GOTAFE has welcomed the findings of the inquiry into its operations by an independent expert and has already commenced implementation of the recommendations. In February, independent expert, John Watson was appointed by Minister for Training and Skills, Gayle Tierney to conduct a review of GOTAFE governance, systems and processes. A summary of the findings was released last week. Board chair, Joanne Dwyer said GOTAFE had cooperated fully with M r Watson, who acknowledged GOTA F E’s contribution to maintaining a high standard of training. Ms Dwyer said the board appreciated the support of the minister, the Department of Education and Training and Mr Watson’s inquiry in guiding the organisation during a time of change. She said the search for a new chief executive officer and two new board members is well-advanced. “As a public-sector service provider, GOTAFE understands its obligation to the greater community and its role as a provider of choice in the region,” Ms Dwyer said. “GOTAFE is committed to the ongoing delivery of quality education and training for individuals, businesses, community groups and industry in the regions in which it operates.”

Yooralla launches local Equal@Work program YOORALLA’S Equal@Work program, designed to assist people with disability to find jobs in the wider employment market, has commenced in Shepparton. Equal@Work is a collaborative project between Yooralla, one of Victoria’s largest and oldest disability service providers, and the Centre for Adult Education (CAE), which aims to actively support participants on their journey to finding and securing employment. Yooralla Pathways to Employment group manager, Andrew Nankivell said that as part of this program, new work skills are explored on a weekly basis. “These are called tasters. They help participants decide what sort of job they may like to do, as well as getting them job ready. Opportunities in horticulture and commercial cooking have already been positively received,” said Andrew. Equal@Work begins with a six-week training course, run by the CAE, called Skills for Life and Work, which includes: interview and communication skills, reading job descriptions and writing resumes, coffee making, working in a commercial kitchen and experience from people in the hospitality industry. Equal@Work participant, Shane Clark said he was really enjoying the program. “This course is better than others I have attended. It is hands-on and teaches you new things I could not learn on my own,” Mr Clark said. After completing Skills for Life and Work, participants will have eight weeks working one-on-one with a volunteer mentor, to hone their job seeking skills.

Important to have your say on the future of the Maude Street Mall YOUR feedback is being sought by Greater Shepparton City Council concerning the four Maude Street Mall design options that were released recently. This is an important opportunity for you to have your say. The challenge is to progress an option that the general public together with business can benefit from for the long term. If any of the options become a popularity contest with the general public and not in favour of business, we could well have a beautified strip without the business to support it. A magnificent looking Maude Street Mall without traffic, with passive walkways, entertainment areas, seating, urban lawn, and more is all very well, however will this alone bring the people back to our CBD? The Adviser suggests we can have most of what has been proposed in a number of the options, a major benefit for the community and business together. A combination of beautification, passive walkways, event space (some of the strip could be closed for major events on a semi regular basis), slow moving traffic (20 km/h) and excellent parking. A major key to business success is access to parking, and plenty of it. Parking along the strip is critical to the success of any new Maude Street precinct. Malls throughout regional Australia have been dying for decades. Do you have an opinion? The Adviser would like to hear from anyone who knows of successful malls in regional Australia. To view the four special Maude Street Mall design options and to have your say, go to www. greatershepparton.com.au

LETTERS

OPINION

Letters to the Editor

DO WE NEED MORE TRAFFIC IN THE CBD? Dear Editor, I write in regards to the article published in The Adviser on Wednesday, May 23 tiled ‘Exciting new plans open for discussion.’ After reading the article, it turned out the heading was the most interesting part! Listing four ‘options’ to promote and liven up the mall, all of which (bar one) proposed opening the mall to traffic! It is hard to understand any reasoning that governs this concept! Throwing around figures in the millions, with no guarantee of success sound familiar? Any proposal that suggests re-opening

traffic to the mall is a recipe for chaos even more than there is already. The suggestion that either Stewart or Fraser Street could be made to handle excess vehicles is ludicrous. One has the cinema opening out to it, the other competes with a very busy crosswalk, and major traffic lights - on an already major road! Fryers Street is always busy anyway, and has three crosswalks in its immediate vicinity. The other end? High Street, Midland Highway! Any proposal that advocates increasing traffic in these areas cannot be explained away easily. All these ‘options’ are retailerbacked - not public!

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. What is being proposed is the opposite of what is needed! We don’t want (or need) more traffic in the CBD! We need more customers, and safe parking places. A second multi-storey car park would help (certainly more than a second art gallery). W hat parking provisions have been expected with the new law courts? These are major concerns that will cost millions of dollars if taken without proper consultation. I worked in a mall for a number of years (Bendigo…before it was butchered) and it was busy and enjoyable. Walking through the Maude Street Mall is depressing. It looks uninviting and lifeless.

Things can be done to improve its image and not cost millions! It has been done before, but needs to be done on a regular basis. Yours sincerely, Michael Mason Shepparton

WELL DONE TO IGA Dear Editor, Why do we need another supermarket near Fairleys SUPA IGA? I do not know how other readers feel, but we now have to travel to Fairleys SUPA IGA because other supermarkets do not stock the known brands that we have used for many years. The other supermarkets are telling us what we should buy or trying to sell us their own brands, which are rubbish. Keep up the good work Fairleys SUPA IGA and keep stocking the good brands. Yours sincerely, Margaret Venema Shepparton Want to have your say? Email your letters to the Editor to editorial@sheppartonadviser.com.au. Max 100 words

Manage unused water at end of irrigation season FOLLOWING the end of the 2017/18 irrigation season, many Goulburn-Murray Water (GMW) customers now have choices to make about their unused water. For those who won’t use their allocation by June 30, it’s important they know and understand options for unused water. GM W general manager customer operations, Scott Barber said, “You can find a buyer (for your water) yourself, or use a water broker or solicitor to find one for you. “We provide application forms and information on end-of-season water trading on our website.” Trade applications must be lodged with GMW by June 27, or June 30 if the application is made through the online trading portal. “You may have the option of keeping some or all of your unused water allocation from this irrigation season and taking it into the next season, subject to rules, where it can be used or traded as normal. This is termed carryover,” Mr Barber said. “Carryover is based on the trading zone you are in and the rules that apply to that zone.” Customers wishing to carryover their unused allocation must trade it into an allocation account linked to a sufficient volume of water shares. To do this, an Application to trade water allocation form (Form 39), must be submitted to GMW by June 27. “Finally, if you do not wish to use, sell or carryover your unused water, you can apply to relinquish your allocation. There is no charge to relinquish water,” Mr Barber said. To relinquish water, applications must be lodged with GMW by June 27 by submitting an Application to relinquish allocation (Form 41), or June 30 if the application is made online via the Victorian Water Register’s My Water application.

Hume region deserves Regional Sports Academy T H E Vic torian G overn ment should suppor t a proposal for a Reg ional Sports Academy in Victoria’s North East according to Independent Member for Shepparton District, Suzanna Sheed. Ms Sheed said the Hume region deserved a regional academy for sport that would bolster the already strong culture of sporting participation in the Shepparton district electorate. “The Shepparton district is home to an array of state-of-the-art sporting facilities and plays host to an increasing number of elite, highly patronised events across a breadth of sporting codes, yet the Hume region is the only region in Victoria that does not have a state-funded Regional Sports Academy,” Ms Sheed said. “For our community, this means a Page 12 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1408 Wednesday, June 6, 2018

significant lack of development pathways for athletes across all sporting codes, insufficient support for female athletes, reduced access for athletes with a disability of those from disadvantages backgrounds, and minimal opportunities for coaching and administrator development.” Ms Sheed said she was pleased to see two organisations in North East Victoria – Valley Sport in Shepparton and North East Sports in Wangaratta – had put forward a proposal to the Victorian Government to fund a regional academy of sport for the Hume region. “I first raised the lack of funding for a Hume region sporting academy with the Minister for Sport, John Eren three years ago and I have now urged him to progress this project as a priority,” Ms Sheed said.

Budding filmmakers to call action on road safety THE Transport Accident Commission (TAC) is giving budding filmmakers the chance to access $50,000 to produce a short film with a road safety message. T he TAC has par t nered w ith the Melbou r ne International Film Festival (MIFF) for the inaugural Split Second youth film competition. People aged between 18 and 25 are eligible to enter the competition, which is open now. The competition calls on entrants to submit an outline of a 45-second film addressing the issue of distracted driving. The theme of this year’s competition is ‘the problem is in our hands.’ A panel of judges from the TAC and film and advertising industry will choose a winner who will receive a $50,000 production budget to make their film with help from award-winning production company Positive Ape. The winner will also receive $5,000 in prize money and their film will feature during 500 MIFF screenings in Melbourne and regional Victoria. TAC’s engagement senior manager, Meg Jacobs said young people were some of Victoria’s most vulnerable road users and the competition aimed to highlight the importance of avoiding distractions while driving. “Mobile phone use is emerging as one of the major factors in fatal and injury crashes,” Ms Jacobs said. “We want to empower young people to have conversations with their friends about making safe choices when they’re behind the wheel.” The competition is open until June 13 and the winner will be announced on June 22.

Workshop highlights health opportunities for students SECONDARY school students from across the region were given the chance to explore careers in health last week, when they took part in a GV Rural Health Careers Workshop. Students visited GV Health and the Department of Rural Health and the University of Melbourne campus, Graham Street, Shepparton, to discover the opportunities available to study and work in the health industry. Approximately 170 students from year 9 to year 12, who are interested in pursuing a career in health, represented more than 19 schools from throughout the Goulburn Valley. La Trobe University’s marketing and engagement advisor, Kristina Marko said the focus for this year’s workshops saw

an increase in pharmacy and radiography, with nursing and midwifery, social health and mental health remaining strong. “Students do not have to move away to pursue a career in health; there are outstanding educational and career opportunities available right here in Shepparton. “The workshop offers industry and tertiary education providers to showcase the future direction of the health sector. Our courses feature industry driven curriculum, such as digital health which provides digital solutions to address meeting the demands of a 21st century health system,” Ms Marko said. GOTAFE partnership engagement manager, Susan Huffer said students were advised about the various pathway options

from school through to traineeships, TAFE or university. “The Diploma of Nursing is another pathway opposed to going straight to university if you don’t quite get the scores in VCE,” Ms Huffer said.

Local health services partnership proposal underway THE proposal to strengthen the partnership between Nathalia, Cobram and Numurkah health services is progressing, which is aiming to improve access to health care for local communities. Numurkah District Health Service CEO, Jacque Phillips said, “Communication and consultation took place with staff and the community from November 2017 to end-March 2018, to gain input on the collaboration proposal and feedback was overwhelmingly positive. “Alongside the consultation, we undertook a ‘due diligence’ analysis of financial, clinical, HR and governance matters, which

is ongoing and holds us in good stead for planning and delivering ongoing service improvements into 2019. “The collaboration of services and strengthening of partnerships across the three organisations is now commencing and this will take place progressively over the next 12 months. “A number of partnerships now enable improved health care. Examples include new mental health services, the Urgent Care Centre ‘Choose Well Feel Better’ project and respiratory services. “We will continue to look at ways to combine our resources and expertise across

the three services to better meet the needs of the community. Our staff are valued. There will be opportunities for staff as a result of the collaboration. Cobram District Health board chair, Dale Brooks said, “We were pleased with the level of engagement from the community and staff on the proposal over the last five months. “The three separate boards of management will continue to govern each health service, including exploring ways to further the partnership in the future to provide better services for each location. “Options for active collaboration between health services across CEO and corporate

executive structures will be considered over the coming months.” Nathalia District Hospital board chair, Sue Logie said, “Providing consistent, high quality, safe and accessible care to the community is our priority. “The existing facilities will remain in place, in their current locations. Current services will be maintained and enhanced to improve access and deliver the best possible health care locally. There will be no reduction in services, staffing or funding in relation to the collaboration initiative. “We will keep people informed as we move through the process.”

Multi-million dollar development sees museum name change ‘MOVE’ OVER SHEPPARTON MOTOR MUSEUM… The Shepparton Motor Museum and Collectables is about to get a name change to better reﬂect the facility, which is set to see a new multi-million dollar development of a truck and transport museum. The new facility will be called Museum of Vehicle Evolution (MOVE). From left, project spokesperson, Peter Hill and curator, Graeme Balfour. Photo: David Lee.

The addition of a multipurpose events venue highlighting the Goulburn Valley’s rich trucking, transport and agricultural heritage already has $2.5M in funding committed under the Federal Government Regional Jobs and Investment Packages (RJIP) and a conditional $1.25M from Greater Shepparton City Council. With 7,000sqm of indoor and 3,000sqm of outdoor exhibition space, visitors to the new complex will be engaged through interactive multimedia and fixed displays, along with curated exhibitions depicting the settlement, growth and establishment of the Goulburn Valley as a major national transport hub and one of the Nation’s leading food bowls. The dedicated museum and outdoor covered events space will significantly bolster the region’s cultural tourism offering and events capability. Project spokesperson, Peter Hill said, “The rapid progress of this $6.25M project requires a restructure of the Shepparton Motor Museum and Collectables board to reflect the expanded focus of the collections, displays and events.

“MOVE will embrace the existing and successful Shepparton Motor Museum and Collectables which also houses the Furphy Museum, as well as the new truck and transport museum. “This is an exciting project for the Goulburn Valley in many ways, tourism, history, education, events and even environmental with the plan to use the enormous building footprint to establish a solar energy farm. “It will be a rewarding and fruitful journey and I encourage people from the legal and accounting fraternity to get involved,” Mr Hill said. MOVE is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified people with a legal or accounting background to join the skills based board, which will oversee fundraising, construction and operation of the new museum complex. The entity has Deductible Gift Recipient Status as a museum. Expressions of interest including professional experience should be marked attention Natalie Leed and emailed to info@sheppartonmotormuseum.com.au

Be alert and aware this long weekend THE Transport Accident Commission is urging Victorians to be rested and aware of changing conditions when hitting the road this Queen’s Birthday long weekend. With fatigue a major factor contributing to road trauma, the TAC is encouraging drivers to stop and recharge at rest stop sites, which will again operate throughout the weekend. The TAC is also reminding motorists to be wary of changing road and weather conditions with the onset of winter. One person died on Victorian roads across the Queen’s Birthday weekend last year however, six people lost their lives during the Labour Day break in March. TAC road safety lead director, Samantha Cockfield said breaking up a road trip for a rest, or to swap drivers, could be a life-saving choice. “During long weekends and holiday periods, we do see increased traffic volumes and people travelling longer distances, particularly in regional Victoria,” Ms Cockfield said. “Fatigue and speed are two of the major contributors to fatal collisions on regional roads and we’re imploring motorists to rest up the night before a trip and allow plenty of time to get to their destinations. “If you’re heading off on a road trip you should factor in a rest stop every two hours to stretch your legs or swap drivers if possible.” The TAC will operate its Towards Zero Pit Stop sites at four of the state’s busiest rest stops, complete with free barista coffees, sausage sizzles, prizes and fun family activities. Pit Stops will be open at Euroa and Dimboola on Friday and Saturday, and Chiltern, Marong and Euroa on Monday.

New jobs to be created through $10M expansion

INDIGENOUS MURALS HONOURED… The Aboriginal Street Art Project was recognised on Friday last week, with Greater Shepparton being awarded at the Helping Achieve Reconciliation Together Awards for the project. Photo: David Lee.

Art project recognised GREATER Shepparton City Council’s Aboriginal Street Art Project was have recognised at the Helping Achieve Reconciliation Together (HART) Awards on Friday last week. With 15 finalists over three categories, the HART Awards recognise outstanding initiatives in reconciliation within local government and community. A Greater Shepparton City Council spokesperson said, “This award shows that when Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Victorians and organisations commit to

meaningful, two-way relationships, there is opportunity for tremendous change. “Council would like to thank the Sheppar ton Reconciliation Group for nominating Council for this award. “The Awards are a partnership between the Victorian Local Governance Association and Reconciliation Victoria, supported by Bank Australia and Local Government Victoria.”

THE new jobs include managers, supervisors, pickers, packers, grafters and propagator roles. It is estimated that the construction phase of the project created up to 20 jobs (builders, concreters, plumbers, electricians, welders and equipment installation), as well as contract work for engineering, land-forming and transport businesses. Member for Northern Victoria, Mark Gepp said, “This announcement is great news for Tatura Fresh, the Goulburn Valley and indeed Victoria. Jobs will be created in construction and when operational. They will be local jobs. This investment will put food on the table for local families. “The Andrews Government is investing in regional Victoria and in horticulture. Today’s announcement further cements the Goulburn Valley’s position as the food bowl of Australia.” Minister for Regional Development, Jaala Pulford said, “The Victorian Government has worked closely with Tatura Fresh to facilitate the investment in the expansion of the hydroponic tomato propagation facility “Not only is Tatura Fresh’s expansion expected to attract $10M investment to the business, it has created 52 new jobs which is great news for locals. “Investment in regional Victoria is vital to ensure it continues to be a prosperous place to live, work and do business.”

Funding suspended as a possible one million breath tests falsified UP to one million preliminary breath test (PBT) results undertaken by Victoria Police are being suspected as being falsified over a five year period, leading to the suspension of $4M in funding to Victoria Police by the Transport Accident Commission. Claims of the practice, whereby an officer either places a finger over the straw entry hole or blows into the straw themselves, were first reported to Victoria Police late last year. Once aware of the claims Road Policing and Professional Standards Commands, toget her w it h statistical specialists commenced an intelligence assessment of over five years of PBT activity. Professional Sta nda rds C om ma nd assistant commissioner, Russell Barrett said what has followed has been a very complex and protracted intelligence assessment and investigation. “The investigation, which analysed over five years of data, 1,500 preliminary breath test devices and more than 17.7 million tests, disappointingly found 258,463 PBTs or 1.5 percent of all tests had been falsified,” Barrett said. “This conduct will not be tolerated, any member found engaging in this practice from today has been put on notice they will Page 20 – The Adviser. Australia No. 1:1408 Wednesday, June 6, 2018

be investigated. “I had not heard of our members engaging in such a practice, we let ourselves down, we’ve let the community down. It stops now.” Victoria Police is in the process of appointing an external investigator, w it h c o nt e mp o r a r y k now l e d g e of Victoria Police’s practices and operating frameworks. “The investigation will examine how this behaviour was allowed to occur and what we can do to enhance and improve our operational practice into the future. “The question we all asked was why? There could be a number of reasons but the main rationale I believe is to hide or highlight productivity. Whatever reason our workforce may come up with, it isn’t acceptable. “In moving forward we are looking into a number of options for improving and increasing our internal controls and accountability in regard to our testing regime. “We are considering the feasibility of regular audits, the ability for the PBT to include the detail of the operator and quality assurance measures.”

Eaton named Hall of Fame netballer inductee TAT U R A star netballer, coach and administrator, Gaye Eaton was honoured for her outstanding contribution to the sport as the first netballer to be inducted into the GVL Hall of Fame at a special gala function at the Shepparton RSL. Eaton, an extremely popular choice, joined four football players to be inducted along with the second member elevated to legend status. The first GVL Hall of Fame legend, former Swans ruckman, Robbie Orrman, was on hand to welcome the second player to be elevated to legend status in mercurial rover, Gary Cooper who played with Tatura, Shepparton United and Mooroopna. Cooper, a star on the field and a popular

man off it, holds the record for the number of games representing the GVL as he has worn the purple and gold colours on 22 occasions. Other inductees for 2018 include 1950s high flying Tatura football coach, Keith Warburton, Mooroopna 200 game player and two times Morrison Medal winner (1972 and 1973), Dowie Bux and Seymour Football Clubs’s 1978 Morrison Medal winner and 1991 Abikhair Medallist, Greg Liddell.

inspire more kids to play tennis,” Woodbridge said. “ANZ has helped us introduce tennis to kids in schools by delivering 110,000 racquets across the country which is an amazing achievement. “For them to take a racquet home means that tennis is always within their reach and helps kids to develop healthy habits that keep them fit and active.” Tennis Australia CEO, Craig Tiley said, “This ongoing initiative shows out continued joint commitment with ANZ to increasing tennis participation and ensuring kids are active at school,” Tiley said. “Schools play a huge role in the development of children, and at Tennis Australia we want to continue to support schools in providing an environment where the health and wellbeing of students is a top priority.” ANZ group executive, Fred Ohlsson said, “We’re committed to supporting tennis at all levels around Australia through ANZ Tennis Hot Shots and are thrilled to be delivering an additional 30,000 racquets around the country to get more children playing tennis.”

SWANS TAKE ON CATS… The match to watch this round is between the Shepparton Swans and Mooroopna, with the loser most likely to become this year’s wooden spoon. Photo: Bailey Opie Photography.

Plenty to play for THE reward for this week’s winner is most likely the avoidance of this year’s wooden spoon. The Shepparton Swans travel across the river to battle rivals Mooroopna in what will be a close contest. Both these clubs percentages are similar with the Swans having scored more points than the Cats but the Cats have the better defence having conceded a lot less than the Swans this year. Chris Cullinan has been one of the best Swans this year and needs the help of Jordan Gattuso, Rhys Healey and veteran, Luke Simpson. The Cats on the other hand look like they bat a little deeper and with Kai Madgwick, Jonathan Odgers, Ryan Devine and club legend, Trent Freer in

good form, at home will want the four points. Both clubs have played in grand finals this decade but are going through a tough period. No club wants wooden spoons when they go through these tougher times so this will be a fiercely contested match up. Cats to win at home. Other matches this week will see Seymour travel to Deakin to defeat United, Euroa head further in the mountains to Mansfield to collect four points, Benalla to win at Moon Oval against Rochester, Tatura to lose third spot with a loss to Kyabram at home and Shepparton to bounce back on the road at Victoria Park, Echuca against the Murray Bombers.
