School celebrates milestone

Victory Lutheran College at West Wodonga - growing with the times.

Victory Lutheran College turns 20 VICTORY Lutheran College is this year celebrating its 20th year of educating students at its west Wodonga campus. The college offers choice in education that takes each child on an educational journey throughout its junior, middle and senior schools. It provides a holistic approach to education for children from Prep to Year 12 on the one spacious site and believes in providing all children with a formal education in a supportive and caring Christian environment. The college works with students and parents to ensure that children develop self-esteem and confidence – the building blocks for success in their education endeavours. Victory Lutheran College views parents as the primary educators of their children and are privileged to join in partnership with them through their child’s education. Students are challenged to think as global citizens, considering others outside their immediate community as they prepare to face the challenges of the 21st century. The college has a strong emphasis in its cur-

Dedicated to the best AT THE heart of Victory Lutheran College is principal Cain McDonald. Coming from a place of educational values, Mr McDonald has taken to his role with dedication to providing the best educational experience possible for students at the college. Mr McDonald began as a teacher at the school when he was 27 and was quickly promoted to principal. “I’m a secondary teacher by training in history and psychology but I’ve taught everything from English to PE and geography,” he said. “I was teaching in the Catholic sector and was offered a meeting with the school here in Wodonga. “I didn’t even know where Wodonga was but flew up and had an interview. There was a really good feeling about the school here. It had only about 280 students, so it was really a small school and the secondary school had only just started. “There was a wonderful atmosphere coming into the school at that point in time in terms of a welcoming community, a nurturing community and a safe community. There’s just a different feel about a regional community school and this school in particular. “I felt there was a real opportunity here.” In his five years Mr McDonald has seen the school virtually double

From start to finish, Victory has it covered CHOOSING a school for your child can be a tough task and having to make the transition from primary to high school can add further pressure to parents and children. At Victory Lutheran College the decision is made easy with classes running from prep right through to Year 12. The school is designed to allow an easy transition through the child’s whole educational process. “We’re the only school in Wodonga that offers education from prep to year 12 on the one site,” principal Cain McDonald said. “We have our junior school which is prep to Year 5, we have our middle school which is Year 6 to Year 9, and then we have our senior school, which is Year 10 to 12. “The junior school is on one side of

the property with the middle and senior schools on the other side and central facilities between the two. “The schools have their own distinct areas without having boundaries or fences, which provides good integration between younger and older students, and we try to do as many whole-school activities as we can.” Mr McDonald said having the whole range on one site helped students both socially and academically. “Research shows students can lose two terms in learning when they transition because they’re more anxious and worried about the social development and settling in rather than the learning side of things,” he said. “We just try to make that progression as smooth as possible.”

DEDICATION… Principal Cain McDonald is dedicated to providing his students with the best possible educational experience. in size with many new buildings providing more specialised areas for education such as arts and sporting activities. He said while he missed classroom teaching he enjoyed the challenges that came with running the school.

“It’s been a very big learning curve so far,” Mr McDonald said. “You don’t go to university to learn how to be a principal. You go to learn how to become a teacher and there’s so many different facets of the job. It’s remarkably different to being a teacher.”

TRANSITION… Integration for students at Victory Lutheran College is a smooth process with classes running right through. Picture: SUPPLIED

Through the middle years VICTORY Lutheran College, through its Middle School program, works with the needs of the adolescent in mind. As parents and teachers it is important to accept that adolescents see things differently and may have different responses to everyday occurrences. The staff are committed to providing a supportive and caring environment to provide the right kinds of opportunities for students to develop academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually. The Middle School program also aims to provide a variety of situations to help each student reach their potential in developing lifelong skills. Victory Lutheran College strives to work closely with parents to provide the

best learning and growing environment while preparing them for the rigours of Senior School and ultimately their careers. “These years are crucial in an adolescent’s educational journey,� head of Middle School Anthony Bothe said. “At the heart of teaching and learning is the understanding that all students learn differently – every journey is unique to the individual. It is our privilege to join them at this point in time, to offer help and guidance to them.� To assist the students in reaching their potential their assessment tasks are designed to offer a variety of experiences. Emphasis is placed on developing higher-order thinking skills which gives

students the opportunity to explore and consider the ways in which they learn best. Mr Bothe said learning at Victory Lutheran College happens in the context of a supportive, transitional learning environment, where the number of different teachers is kept to a minimum with the majority of classes taking place in the same classroom. “Staff support students in their daily walk through genuine care and concern and a commitment to providing pastoral support,� he said. “This combined approach also builds a sense of community and allows our students to strive to be the best they can.�

POTENTIAL‌ Anthony Bothe says the Middle School program at Victory Lutheran College helps students to reach their full potential.

Knowing the whole child VICTORY Lutheran College believes in an interactive form of education, involving the children every step of the way. Principal Cain McDonald said he’d seen many changes over his time in the education system and he felt the program offered through Victory was based on a modern learning model. “One of the big changes we’ve seen in education is a shift to knowing the whole child,� he said.

“It’s not just about content of literacy and numeracy and history – that’s all important and that’s the foundation of learning but it’s much more about skills-based learning now as well, giving students the skills to equip them for life. “It’s a lot about the relationships between the teacher and the child. Culture is different, community is different and the expectations on schools and children and teachers are different to what they used to be. “It’s a lot more about positive

reinforcement that gets the best out of children. If you’re working in a positive way and the children can see you’re genuinely caring and interested in them they’ll give you 110 per cent.� LEFT: RELATIONSHIPS‌ Principal Cain McDonald says it is important that teachers are able to build good relationships with their students to ensure a fruitful result for all involved.

Going ahead in great leaps and bounds whole works we can do in that one venue now.� Another building typical of the school’s planning is the new art centre. Previously the students utilised a portable classroom where now they have a purpose-built facility. “The actual design of the building, I think, is creative and enhances creativity because both of the classrooms have big by-fold glass doors that open up onto a central courtyard,� Mr McDonald said. “You can have students moving in and out so I think it just enhances the opportunity to push their imagination and creativity. We don’t want them just sitting in nice little rows; we want them to be able to move around and look at different things and feel different things and hopefully produce some wonderful artworks out of all that.� The next major focus for the school will be a music centre. With the current facility pushed to the limit the school will be starting work next year on the new building to ensure adequate space and learning opportunities.

OPPORTUNITY‌ Students Georgia Boehringer, Brittany Lyons, Aaron Pimm and Matthew Fuaux enjoying their time in the library, another of the more recent additions to the college.

GROWTH‌ Victory Lutheran College has experienced continued growth in its 20 years of operation including this new multipurpose hall.

From a worldly point of view VICTORY Lutheran College is a school based around not just core Christian values but a complete worldly point of view. According to principal Cain McDonald the curriculum was structured to produce “globally educated citizens�. “The teaching comes from a very Christian perspective,� Mr McDonald said. “We have core values we try to build in such as love, justice, compas-

sion, humility and service. “These are values we would expect parents to be teaching their children at home, and we’re trying to support that here. “At the end of the day we see ourselves in partnership with parents trying to support their upbringing at home.� While the college is based on the Lutheran religion, a Lutheran faith is not a prerequisite.

“Our Christian studies program teaches the children about other religions as well,� Mr McDonald said. “Probably about 10 to 15 per cent would be Lutheran families now and then you have a whole spectrum of other denominations. Some may not be practising any faith at all and this is an opportunity for them or their children to have some Christian contact or be exposed to that, and that’s something they may see as important for their children.�

BUILDING projects at Victory Lutheran College have been going ahead in leaps and bounds in recent years to accommodate the school’s growing enrolment and provide modern facilities to improve education. Principal Cain McDonald said being an independent school allowed them more freedom of design and forward planning than would be the case in a government school. The new gymnasium is a prime example where, although the current enrolments at the school numbers around 570, the new building will comfortably hold 800 in a multipurpose design. “Because the school had grown so much we were at the point where we just didn’t have an inside venue where we could gather the whole school community, and for us the whole school community is very important,� Mr McDonald said. “We can have everyone in there for church services. Last year we had our concert in there for the junior years. It’s really lifted the sporting opportunity for the students as well. It allows us to train any time of the year and we have basketball, netball, volleyball, badminton; it’s got the

Tested to the limit Security officer proposes breath tests to make drinkers take responsibility By CAROLINE STRAINIG A BORDER security officer has proposed breath tests in licensed venues in an effort to curb drunkenness and loutish behaviour. Ian Unger, who has worked as a security guard in Albury Wodonga for the past 15 years, said the current Responsible Service of Alcohol legislation was ineffective in itself and placed an unfair onus on venue staff. “What I would like to see is the security officer or staff member given the right to test someone they think could be over an acceptable limit, both when that person is coming in and during the evening,” Mr Unger said. “I like to think of it as the ‘Responsible Consuming of Alcohol’. “At the moment it is up to the staff to determine if someone is drunk from the way they behave, and this can be really stressful. “It is very subjective judging if someone is drunk just by looks – and people can and do argue – not to mention if you get it wrong you can be up for

BLOW HERE… Security officer Ian Unger would like the right to breath-test patrons. Picture: CAROLINE STRAINIG thousands in fines if something happens.” Mr Unger said he had noticed a trend of people fuelling up on cheap liquor at home before going out to a venue because they didn’t want to pay club prices. “Sometimes it hasn’t yet hit their system when you see them at the door and it can be impossible to tell,” he said. “We aren’t there to babysit drunks – we need a way to prevent it.”

Mr Unger said having the power to breath test would irrefutably settle the question of whether someone was drunk and take a lot of the uncertainty and stress out of the situation. “I think it’s time we placed the onus on the drinker to be responsible, and knowing that they could be monitored will help make them think about what they are doing,” he said. “Another benefit would be that you would not need the existing 1.30am lock-out on Friday and Saturday nights because it would be redundant.” Mr Unger said he was not proposing the same blood alcohol content limit as the .05 limit for driving a car, but a much higher percentage which “the experts think reasonable”. He said state or even federal legislation would be needed to see his proposals become law, but to get the ball rolling he had drawn up a submission detailing his plan and sent it to Albury councillors. “Two have already replied with positive comments – Henk van de Ven and Daryl Betteridge,” he said.

AN ELDERY man drove 30km on the wrong side of the Hume Highway on Sunday. The 82-year-old Mitsubishi Sigma driver entered the Melbourne-bound side of the highway at Thurgoona and was stopped by police near the Newtons Road bridge at Mullengandra. Police have slammed the man’s actions, saying it was incredibly lucky no-one was killed or injured. “He’s put a lot of other drivers at risk,� Albury Inspector Matthew Tishler said. “Considering the speed limit is 110kmh, if other vehicles are travelling at that speed then there’s

the potential for dangerous consequences.� Several motorists notified police of the incident. Police travelled on the correct side of the road to stop the driver. The driver had returned to the correct side of the highway by crossing a section of bollards when police caught up with him at 11.15am. The man will have his licence reviewed by the RTA. “He was spoken to and issued a court attendance notice for dangerous driving to attend Albury Local Court in June,� Insp Tishler said. “A question of fitness will be placed on his licence and he’ll have it reviewed.�

AS A society we are becoming more and more a nanny state, with governments of all persuasions trying to protect us from our own stupidity by increasing regulation. “Don’t do this, do that� – the list is endless. Sometimes the laws are good, but other times they are not. Bureaucrats can get it wrong. Common sense can be sadly lacking. Part of the reason for this over-regulation is that we as individuals are increasingly seeking to blame someone else rather than taking responsibility for ourselves. The attitude is: “I tripped over? Must be someone else’s fault. They’ll have to pay!� The NSW Workers Compensation Scheme is one victim of this, with payouts blowing out to such an extent that each local business’s premiums may increase as much as 28 per cent (see story page 4). Not only are people now being “paid out� for things unthinkable 30 years ago, but some people are rorting the system. The person who has an accident on the weekend and then “falls� over his chair at work is a common scenario. The problem in Western society is that the “someone� who pays the bill for this expensive nanny state is running out of money. In an increasingly competitive global world governments and businesses just don’t have the cash to burn on non-essentials. What is needed – as the NSW Business Chamber has suggested in the context of the Workers Compensation Scheme – is structural change rather than just ever-increasing bills and imposts. Recognition that the buck stops with each and every one of us would also be a major step forward.

Bowled over by selection Talented teenager makes national team By BLAIR THOMSON TALENTED Wodonga ten-pin bowler Gerard Hinsley has been selected to represent Australia overseas. The Wodonga Catholic College student, aged 17, is the first Wodonga resident to make the national team and will compete in the Asian School Tournament in Jakarta in July. His father Neale, a bowler of 20 years, said Gerard had already far surpassed him at the sport. “For us it’s very exciting having him firstly make the Victorian team last year, and now the Australian team,” he said. “It’s pretty special. I’m very

at Twin Cities Tenpin Bowl to ensure Gerard can compete in the tournament. Despite his talents, Gerard is still not sure whether he wants to make a career from the sport. “It will be good to see how I rank among everyone else at this tournament in Jakarta,” he said. With an average of around 190 per game, compared with around 220 to 240 for professional bowlers in the US, Gerard’s future certainly looks promising. For more information on the fundraising night call 6024 7022. Gerard has also won a council award for his achievements – see story P28.

proud of him. He’s put in a lot of hard work.” Gerard spends at least five hours training each week in between his Year 12 studies and travels extensively to compete in tournaments. “We’ve been down to Melbourne for training every weekend and to places like Sydney, Warnambool, the ACT for competitions,” Neale said. “We only just returned from Sydney this week. “To get to this point it’s cost between $15,000 and $20,000, and we’ve been told that he needs about $5000 for the trip to Jakarta.” A fundraiser has been organised

Cold weather ahead, but winter will be warmer On the short-list By BLAIR THOMSON IF YOU’RE thinking this month has been a little colder than usual, then you’re right. Statistics from the Bureau of Meteorology show the mean minimum temperature for the first 23 days of May was almost two degrees lower than the long-term May average. The minimum temperature dropped to two degrees or lower seven times this month, compared with five times for the same period last year. The mercury dipped below freezing for the first time this year on 14 May, with further cold weather predicted in coming days. But the good news is that winter is tipped to be a little warmer than normal. “It’s going to be about four degrees below average for this time of year over the next couple of days,” Bureau of Meteorology Wagga Office technical officer Nigel Smedley said.

“But it’s more likely going to be a warmer winter for your area.” The bureau expects an El Nino whether pattern in the second half of the year, meaning less rain. “But that’s a computer model outlook, it doesn’t necessarily mean it will happen,” Mr Smedley said. Water releases from Hume Dam have been reduced to the minimum 600 megalitres a day following the end of the irrigation season, leaving the bottom of the Murray exposed in parts. “This is our storage time of year where we start to fill the water storage again,” NSW State Water senior field asset officer Ross Hillary said. “It’s unusual to have it so full this time of year, it means we’ve got a great head start for next season.” Water levels are expected to rise at the dam this weekend with heavy rain forecast.

DR JOHN Brabant was both surprised and elated to be anonymously nominated for the Telstra Business Awards. His company, Evolve Orthodontics, has been short-listed for the NSW Best Startup Business category. “I’d say it was one of our clients that nominated us which is amazing,” he said. “To get into the short-list, so the top 10 per cent of all the businesses, was great.” The NSW awards night, which recognises business excellence over several categories, will be held on 24 July, with nationals to follow in August. Dr Brabant provides some free orthodontic services to needy people through the Carevan.

Business to pay premium shortfall LOCAL businesses could be slugged up to an extra $2331 each to pay for a shortfall in a workers compensation insurance scheme, a business organisation warns. Murray-Riverina NSW Business Chamber’s regional manager, Ben Foley, said the NSW Workers’ Compensation Scheme was facing a $4 billion deficit and the government had proposed a 28 per-cent increase in premiums to bring the scheme back into balance within five years. “The analysis by the NSW Business Chamber is a conservative estimate based on the impact of a 28 per-cent increase on the basic tariff premium applied across the number of employers in the Murray Riverina,” he said. “If premiums are increased by the 28 per cent that the actuaries assert is needed to get the scheme back to full funding in five years, that will cost Murray-Riverina based employers over $30 million in additional premium fees. “Hiking premiums is not an incentive to employ people, in fact, it’s an incentive to employers to review their staffing and stop employing.”

RAIL RIPPED OUT… Junction Place is being prepared for development. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON TOO MUCH… Business Chamber regional manager Ben Foley believes a huge jump in workers compensation premiums is unjustified. Mr Foley said the NSW Business Chamber would be appearing before the Joint Select Committee on the Workers Compensation Scheme in the NSW Parliament to argue for structural reform. “It is in everyone’s interest, both employer and employee, to have a scheme that is financially sustainable,” he said.

Demolition on track By BLAIR THOMSON THE FIRST step in creating a new CBD for Wodonga has commenced. A demolition team is removing disused rail line and infrastructure at the old railway station in a bid to attract investors and developers to the site. Up to eight kilometres of tracks will be pulled from the site over the next two months, along with signal boxes, light posts, sleepers and stone. Two overhead rail gantries will be retained and possibly incorporated into future developments, and the signal posts and blue stone blocks will also be reused. Places Victoria opened expressions of interest for the purchase, development and lease of the Junction Place land last week. The body plans to turn the area into a public space with shops, food outlets, entertainment and commercial and residential buildings. “Removing the rail infrastructure is the first step in preparing the site for future development,” Places Victoria CEO Sam Sangster said.

“We’re removing infrastructure across the whole of the site, which allows us to start the next phase around development.” While keen to emphasise the “first signs of real action”, Mr Sangster wouldn’t put a timeline on development starting, and couldn’t say if any construction would start this year. “I think until we see what comes back from the market, I wouldn’t want to preempt what people are wanting to do,” he said. “We’re very keen to get development happening as soon as we possibly can, but it’s very much based on what the market tells us now.” Developers have six weeks to respond to the EOI, with the public to provide feedback on any plans put forward. “This is not more diagrams, documents, and talk, this is reality,” Mr Sangster said. “This is the start of development, this is actually getting this site development ready.” Mr Sangster said it was important to retain the site’s heritage.

ALBURY Wodonga Chamber Business Awards were launched on Tuesday at a function at Rydges and local businesses have been urged to participate and showcase what they do well. Business manager at Albury Northside Chamber Kerryn Arnold said there were many benefits for businesses nominating. Three stages of judging take place with businesses in the running for awards in a variety of categories. “If they make it through as a finalist, they get free marketing as we run into the awards announcement, and if they actually win one of the categories we allow them to use the awards logo for 12 months to help market their business,” Ms Arnold said. “One of the best outcomes is that through the process of having to look at their own business they actually get a very good insight into areas where they think they can do better. “For example, one of our businesses nominated for three years in a row and didn’t make it as a finalist for the first two years, but the process highlighted the areas of the business that needed to be worked on and as a result that business won two categories last year.” For further information go to the website at www.alburynorthside.com.au.

Do you own a wood fired heater? Are you sick of soot filled chimneys, stained glass and wood smoke? GIVE IT A GO… Cr Henk van de Ven wants to hear from people with a genuine interest in the future of Albury. Picture: CAROLINE STRAINIG

‘We are nowhere near as bad as painted!’

Councillor believes bad image may be deterring candidates AN ALBURY councillor is having trouble putting together a ticket of candidates for the next election on 8 September – and he blames past press coverage for the lack of enthusiasm. Cr Henk van de Ven, who has served on council for the past eight years, took the extreme step of advertising for candidates in the 11 May issue of NewsWeekly and said he would be advertising again in June. “I have had discussions with people but no-one has put their hand up,” he said. “The first response I get is why on earth would you want to put up with the media scrutiny and the negative press.” He said this stemmed from past sensationalist press coverage by some media. “They tend to focus on verbal outbursts and exchanges between councillors rather than the major issues,” he said. “You will get headlines about something that took two minutes and a budget discussion that went on for three hours will get a fraction of the coverage,” he said. While he understood this was the nature of media coverage to some extent, he believed

CR HENK VAN DE VEN the fall-out was creating a negative public perception which could have long-term ramifications in terms of the calibre of council candidates. “I definitely believe it is deterring people from putting their hand up to be on council,” he said. “We are nowhere near as bad as painted. You have an organisation with nine different people who come together to make decisions on the future of Albury city. “I’d challenge anyone who has ever sat on a board or a committee to say that they get on with everyone. However, despite the fact you mightn’t like some of those people you still make good decisions because you are able to put your differences aside. “I can look myself in the face

in the mirror and honestly say there is not a single infrastructure decision we have made that has been a bad one.” Cr van de Ven said in reality being on council was very rewarding, and he urged people who had a genuine interest in the future of the city and region to consider standing for election. “We are making sure that Albury is the best possible city and that people want to live here, not just now, but in 20, 30 or 40 years time,” he said. Another plus was that most Albury councillors were independent and the political “party-line” issues that were a thorn in the side of some metropolitan councils were lacking. Anyone interested can email Cr van de Ven at comments@ henkvandeven.com.au.

AN 18-year-old man was taken to Albury Base Hospital with severe arm lacerations early Sunday morning – but how or why he was injured remains a mystery. Paramedics were called to Amp Lane at 2.54am Sunday morning following a triple-0 call saying the man had smashed a window. He was placed in an ambulance at the Volt Lane car park with serious injuries and taken to the hospital. Large pools of blood were still visible in Amp Lane late Sunday afternoon, attracting stares from passing onlookers. However, there were no signs of any smashed or boarded-up windows. Police said they had no record of the incident and hospital staff couldn’t confirm any details of the incident. But a NSW Ambulance spokesperson confirmed the injuries, describing them as “serious”.

Much more than just a supermarket Aldi Complex a real one-stop shop THERE’S a small shopping centre in Albury that the locals like to keep a secret, but word is spreading fast. The cluster of shops known as the “Aldi Complex� in Young Street almost opposite Bunnings is a great one-stop shop to pick up the essentials. In addition to Aldi’s bargain-basement prices and good range, you’ll find a coffee bar, hair and beauty salon, hot roast dinner restaurant that specialises in takeaway, bottle shop with an excel-

lent range, plus a solar power specialist. You can do your shop at Aldi, have a coffee with a friend you run into at Gossips, pick up a delicious roast dinner at Carv’n It Up, not to mention a nice bottle of wine to go with it at the Bottle-O. Alternatively, you might want to have a cut and blow-dry at The Essence Hair and Body and check out how much changing to solar power will save you at Planet Power.

The small number of shops means you don’t have to fight the crowds, and it’s all quick and convenient, with plenty of parking out the front accessible from Young Street and underground parking accessible from a rear laneway. Not surprisingly, a good number of residents are shopping there in preference to some of the big complexes in central Albury and the outer suburbs. So check it out next time you go shopping – there’s much more to the Aldi Complex than just a supermarket.

Paws turn out in aid of the RSPCA By CAROLINE STRAINIG LOCAL RSPCA programs will be better off to the tune of at least $3000 thanks to the hundreds who turned out for the Million Paws Walk on Sunday. Albury RSPCA president Gervaise Gaunt said the figures were still being tallied up mid-week, but she thought at least 500 people and their pets attended the Albury walk, one of dozens staged throughout Australia. “It could have been even more – this year we had at least 100 register online, and I’m not sure at this stage whether those people were included in that 500 figure,” she told NewsWeekly. “I think we raised at least $6000, although expenses will come out of that, so probably around $3000 clear, all of which will be used for RSPCA programs locally. Again, I’m not sure at this stage whether the proceeds from online registra-

tion were factored into that $6000.” Ms Gaunt said it was a really fantastic morning. “The weather was great, and it was lovely to see so many dog owners and their dogs turn out to support us, and to also have a great time socialising,” she said. The walk started from Hovell Tree Park and in addition to the actual one, three or five-kilometre walks along the Murray River there were 28 stands plus attractions in the park. These included local vets, animal behaviourists, hydrobaths, facepainting, pet accessories, pet photography, and a fun agility course people could try their hand at. Food and drink were not forgotten and a coffee caravan did a good trade pre-walk and the Rotary sausage-sizzle stand a roaring trade post walk. Another attraction was a preevent pet show put on by the Hume Animal Hospital.

Big plans for lake venue By BLAIR THOMSON

SPREADING OUT… Walkers start to spread out as the walk crosses the Murray River into Victoria.

WODONGA Council hopes to turn Gateway Lakes into a permanent music and event precinct in a bid to attract more big-name performers to the venue. Council must first secure a $300,000 grant for the project, which will see lighting, signage and pathways installed, and an increase in the capacity of the site. The road leading to the venue will be sealed, toilets built, and power connections installed for concerts. Ratepayers will contribute $150,000. The Wiggles and Cold Chisel have

performed at Gateway Lakes in the past 12 months, with water ski competitions and the Chryslers on the Murray also held at the site. “The events team are very much focused on getting more events there,” Wodonga Mayor Mark Byatt said. “The site’s proving to be quite popular for shows, expos and some of those bigger events. “So it’s a deliberate effort to upgrade that area a little bit.” More than 12,000 Cold Chisel fans attended the band’s gig last November.

Wodonga Council director business services Trevor Ierino said Gateway Lakes needed to cater for a variety of uses. “Flexibility is very important there,” he said. “You’ve got the Chryslers on the Murray with cars everywhere, The Wiggles needed to set up a tent, things like that.” Cultural services manager Simone Hogg said events held at the site gave accommodation providers, the food industry and other businesses great economic benefits.

Heritage expert on tap for Albury ALBURY residents who own buildings of historic significance can now access an expert free of charge following the appointment of a heritage advisor. Albury Council has awarded a oneyear contract to Robin Graham, a registered architect with over 15 years of experience specialising in the heritage conservation field. He has been a heritage advisor for a number of councils and is currently advisor for Hume Shire. This appointment was made possible through the Albury Council 2010-2012 Urban and Public Art strategy, in which the council recognises the importance of maintaining the cultural heritage of the city and encourage community members to play an active role in preservation.

Mr Graham will provide a free service to Albury residents seeking heritage advice; this could be from development application assistance to paint colour selection. He will also be assisting council with heritage issues. The council will be contacting owners of heritage-listed properties to make them aware of the free service and Mr Graham will be available once every two months at the LibraryMuseum (by appointment). Anyone interested in an appointment with Robin should register their interest by contacting council urban and public art officer Tom Arnold on 6023 8738 or via email tarnold@alburycity.nsw.gov. au.

Ferret fever sparks research

Advertisement

THE rising popularity of ferrets as pets in Australia has led a Charles Sturt University (CSU) student to search for more answers about their behaviour and welfare. Bachelor of Animal Science (Honours) student Ms Sarah Talbot will survey ferret owners across Australia and examine the links between housing, handling, enrichment, fearfulness and behaviour in order to identify the specific requirements of ferrets. “This will be the first large-scale survey undertaken in Australia to study ownership, husbandry standards and behaviour of ferrets and will hopefully lead to further research being done on this animal,” Ms Talbot said. “Ferrets are inquisitive carnivores that form strong rewarding bonds with their carers and their popularity as a companion animal is growing in Australia. “They require knowledgeable handling and appropriate housing facilities, otherwise behavioural problems can arise, yet there is little available information on how best to keep them. “Currently there are no specific guidelines regarding the keeping of ferrets and what housing they require. Due to their complex behaviour, such guidelines are necessary in order to promote good welfare in this animal. “Most people don’t realise that ferrets are actually highly intelligent and require a considerable amount of exercise. “A lack of exercise and restricted housing can result in behavioural problems such as hyperactivity and aggression.” One of Ms Talbot’s supervisors, Dr Skye Wassens from the School of Environmental Sciences at CSU in Wagga Wagga, said, “This survey will be critical in developing best practice guidelines to inform current and future ferret owners”. Legislation covering the keeping of ferrets varies throughout Australia; a licence is required in the ACT and Victoria yet no licence is required in NSW or Western Australia. “The legislative inconsistencies provide an opportunity to examine if legislation concerning the keeping of companion animals has a measurable impact on animal welfare,” said Dr Raf Freire, Coordinator of Honours Studies in the University’s School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences. The online survey is open to all ferret owners. For more information email sarahtalbot1990@ gmail.com

One thousand express interest in relocation

Expo moves city-dwellers By CAROLINE STRAINIG

SMILES… Wodonga Mayor Mark Byatt is all smiles at the interest the city attracted at a regional expo. Picture: CAROLINE STRAINIG

IF YOU call Wodonga Council and they are a little slow in answering, there could be a good reason – staff may be busy helping people who want to move here. Mayor Mark Byatt said Wodonga was represented at Victoria’s first Regional Victoria Living Expo in April, which was an outstanding success. “Not only did the Wodonga stand win the award for best stand, but we were inundated with enquiries, which staff have been busy following up. “We had more than 1000 enquiries during the expo and of these there are probably 150 people serious about relocating here. “Staff are following up, whether it is information packs, or information on jobs and real estate. Time will tell how many people actually move, but it is looking promising at this stage.”

Cr Byatt said the expo had introduced Wodonga to many people who didn’t know it and the city’s “livability” factor had rated well. “We have a huge amount to offer in terms of lifestyle and the availability of capital-city-style services,” he said. Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional and Rural Development Peter Ryan described the three-day expo at the Melbourne Conference and Exhibition Centre as a one-stop-shop for the many Melburnians actively considering a move to the country. He said all of Victoria’s 48 regional councils attended to share advice and resources and answer questions, as well as up to 130 exhibitors ready to discuss the unique lifestyle benefits on offer in regional and rural Victoria. He said many Melburnians were looking for a change. “Victoria’s regional and rural areas provide numerous advantages in terms of business viabil-

ity, jobs, education and overall liveability,” Mr Ryan said. He added Victoria’s population was projected to increase by more than three million over the next 40 years, with 600,000 of that in regional Victoria. “In the past, Melbourne has grown faster than the regions, which has placed pressure on Melbourne’s public transport, roads and infrastructure,” Mr Ryan said. “The government is keen to ensure our regional and rural communities share in the population boom and help take the pressure off Melbourne.” The Regional Victoria Living Expo was held at the Melbourne Conference and Exhibition Centre from 27–29 April. For more information visit www.rdv.vic.gov.au/expo Cr Byatt said the expo would be held every year for at least the next three or four years, and Wodonga would be represented at all of them following the success of the inaugural event.

Study to explore bushfire dilemma Grants in the making WHEN it comes to bushfires we are told to stay and defend or leave early – but how do we make that decision? That is exactly what a community study in north-east Victoria is trying to establish. “The aim of this study is to understand what psychological factors come into play when an individual needs to make the decision to stay and defend, or leave early, when exposed to a bushfire threat,” said Heidi Cohrane, the student at Latrobe University who is conducting the study.

“The survey may benefit your local community by providing information that may assist fire agencies to help prepare communities for bushfires in the future. “It may also benefit people on an individual basis because there is a planning process checklist embedded in the questionnaire listing the activities you could undertake to make your property safer. “It may assist you to review your existing household bushfire plan or develop a new one.”

IF YOU might ever have to apply for a community grant, an upcoming workshop is a must to attend. Funding manager for Regional Arts NSW, Ben Sibson, will present an insight into the world of arts funding and grant applications at a workshop on 30 May. Mr Sibson oversees the statewide funding programs of Regional Arts NSW including the Country Arts Support Program and the Regional Arts Fund. The workshop will cover an overview of the funding programs that Regional Arts NSW devolves from the state and

Heidi said the survey was part of her Bachelor of Psychological Science Honours program at Latrobe and had full approval by the university’s ethics committee. To take part visit http://tiny.cc/vicbushfire for the online version or or phone Heidi Cochrane on 6024 9881 or email hacochrane@students.latrobe. edu.au to request a paper version of the survey and a reply-paid envelope.

federal government. It will be held on Wednesday 30 May from 10am to 4pm in Corowa. The cost is free with a light lunch provided. A presentation on general grant writing techniques and project planning will be given with a hands-on workshop session, incorporating writing and assessing applications based on the Regional Arts Fund application process. Bookings are essential. Please contact Murray Arts on 6021 5034, email info@murrayarts.org.au.

Value and comfort in a ‘big small car’ By TREVOR JACKSON GONE are the days of Hyundai being just another cheap import. These days the brand provides style, comfort and reliability all in a very affordable and economical package and the new Elantra offers all that in a vehicle marketed as “the big small car�. The model I tested was the Elite, the mid-spec of the Elantra range and included a 1.8-litre engine coupled to an automatic transmission. First impressions are of a reasonably sized small car with rounded corners and sweeping lines quite pleasing to the eye. It certainly appears small enough to comfortably navigate city streets or tight car parks but step inside and the impression shifts. Suddenly you’re confronted with more space than seems physically possible in a small car. The driver’s pew allows the usual adjustments and dropping the seat height creates an even more spacious feel. The dash is pleasing to the eye with everything in place, again in a nicely rounded package. A glance around the cabin shows a decent-size screen for stereo controls and set-up, controls for the dual-zone climate control

are easily accessible while modern conveniences are taken care of with auxiliary, iPod, USB and Bluetooth connectivity. It all sounds nice and cosy but of course the proof is in the pudding. Four-cylinder engines and automatic transmissions aren’t my favourite combinations, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised in the past so I was eager to see what the Elantra had to offer. A push of the start/stop button fired up the little power plant which was hardly noticeable at idle. A touch of the accelerator provided plenty of urge to reach legal speeds around town. The transmission does provide my favourite combination in manual mode with its sequential stick shift, rather than the steering-wheel-mounted paddles offered on some vehicles. Flicking the gear stick across to the left engages manual mode and a simple push forwards or back is all that’s required to change up or down a gear. I actually found myself reaching for this option over the course of the test and thoroughly enjoying the experience. Comfort levels were quite impressive with the suspension soaking up most of the bumps around town

and providing a smooth and quiet ride on the freeway. I found this in no way inhibited the sporty handling of the Elantra and a short burst out towards Table Top from Wodonga, via Lake Hume and Thurgoona, inspired a great deal of confidence in the cornering ability of the Elantra. Power was ample when entering the Hume Freeway, allowing the little Hyundai to reach legal speeds comfortably. After a couple of hours of driving around the region I hopped out feeling fresh and would have no problem punting the Elantra on a longer stint up the highway. Initially I was somewhat hesitant when it came to testing the Hyundai considering some of the more upmarket recent vehicles I’ve reviewed. However, I was eager to see how it would stack up. I have to say I was impressed and would consider the Elantra a worthy opponent to all comers in its class. It boasts all the goodies of some of the more expensive offerings in a comfortable and affordable package. With prices starting around the $20,000 mark for the Active with increases for the Elite and the Premium Hyundai have certainly hit a winner with the Elantra.

IMPRESSIVE‌ Hyundai’s Elantra should appeal to many motorists with its stylish looks and impressive interior space. Pictures: TREVOR JACKSON

Bouncing back into great shape HAVING a baby can take a lot out of you physically, but one local business is geared to helping you maintain your condition in the lead up to giving birth and bounce back as quickly as possible afterwards. Flex Out Physiotherapy in The Gardens, 470 Wodonga Place, Albury, offers a range of private consultations and classes geared for expecting and new mums. These include one-on-one consultations, pilates group classes and special classes just for mothers and babies, all with qualified physiotherapists, including Imagen Batten who is a physiotherapist who works in women’s health and has a special interest in pre and postnatal health. The mothers-and-babies class on a Thursday morning at 10am was started only two months ago but has been so popular that Flex Out is about to start more sessions. Run by Imagen, the classes are limited to a maximum of

six mothers and babies to ensure comfort. There is a focus on strengthening, core stability and pelvic floor rehabilitation or the mums, and the babies are involved in the majority of the exercises to promote development. “It’s a very relaxed, fun, supportive environment,” Imogen said. “If the baby is having an off day they don’t have to participate in every exercise.” For the pre-natal women, Imogen runs pregnancy pilates utilising specialised equipment in a group of up to three. “This is excellent to strengthen core muscles and improve flexibility to better cope with the demands of labour and also help avoid backache and joint pain during pregnancy,” she said. “We have many different class times to choose from.” Imogen said new clients usually started with an individual assessment session, and then moved straight into the

pregnancy pilates group. Mothers are then able to commence mother-and-babies classes post birth. She said surprisingly few women were confident in how to do pelvic floor exercises when they first started. “Pelvic floor exercises are incredibly important – one of those things we all need to be doing, just like brushing your teeth,” she said. “If you are not doing them correctly, they can be doing more harm than good.” “Yet most women who come to me are unsure and struggle to do a good pelvic floor contraction and really do need expert help.” Flex Out Physiotherapy charges $70 for the initial individual consultations and then $60 thereafter and $20 for group classes. Depending on your health fund, some or all of this can be claimed back. For more information contact the team at Flex Out Physiotherapy on 6023 2831.

FUN WAY… Imogen with some of the mothers and babies in her Thursday class.

What conditions can be treated? • Pelvic floor pain, bladder pain & rectal pain • Bladder & bowel incontinence • Bladder & bowel urgency • Prolapse • Pre & post natal incontinence & pain • Pre & post gynecological surgery

Kitty keeps it real By BLAIR THOMSON

HELLO KITTY… Kitty Flanagan still gets a buzz from comedy after more than 15 years in the business.

IT’S a little strange that Kitty Flanagan’s new show is called Hello Kitty. Most people would have already “met” Flanagan through her TV work on Fast Forward/Full Frontal, The Micallef Program, Good News Week and The Project, or seen her stand-up on TV or on YouTube. Flanagan, who will perform at the Albury Entertainment Centre on Saturday, 2 June, is perhaps one of the country’s best-known comedians, her relaxed style a hit with fans. “The new show is …. what’s it all about?” she ponders with a laugh. “I answer all the big questions and give an insight into my own mentalness. “I am using the entire theatre space, so there will be some experimental movements, a bit of burlesque dancing with my clothes on, a bit of singing, some funny stories, some funny voices. “I’m trying to give a real theatre experience, so people walk out and go wow, she really enjoyed using that theatre,” she added with a laugh. Sounding completely at ease with herself, and a hearty laugh never far away, Flangan says she still gets a buzz out of comedy after more than 15 years in the business.

“There’s a big adrenaline rush with the 7pm Project, or The Project as it’s now called, because you know it’s going out live and if you make a mistake, you’re in trouble,” she said. “There’s no kinda saying ‘sorry Charlie, I just said f---, can we go again and make sure that doesn’t go to air?’ “It’s live television and there’s no taking it back. “Honestly, sometimes I get to 4 o’clock and I think ‘oh no, I haven’t thought of anything, I’ve sat here all day squeezing my head and nothing’s come out of it’. “But there’s nothing like having a deadline to work towards, you end up having something.” The Sydney resident spent eight years in London honing her craft, returning home three years ago. “I think the Australian sense of humour fits in quite well over there, it’s all the same self-deprecating, put-yourself-down kind of humour,” she said. “None of us like to be introduced like a lot of Americans do, with ‘you’ve seen her on this, you’ve seen her on that, and you’ve seen her on all these things’, and you walk on and everyone goes ‘who’s that?’ “Just bring me on, I’ll be funny then, don’t worry about trying to build me up. “Don’t get all razzle dazzle.

“Features amazing vegas style specialty acts, stunning dancers & entertainers, and spectacular costumes, lighting & set design.

$40.00 per person

“Working in the theatres is a whole different rush. “It’s amazing going out, just getting to do your thing for an audience. “It’s just so enjoyable, especially the show I’m doing now. “I feel like a sportsman – I’m really giving it 110 per cent, this time,” she added with a laugh. While her current tour will keep her busy for the next 12 months, she wants to get back into scripted comedy. “There’s certainly stuff I want to do in that area, it might be a film or a sitcom, something that requires me sitting down and concentrating, staying at my desk for longer than two minutes and going ‘wow, something shiny’ and wandering away,” she said. “I love sketch shows; there’s nothing more fun than putting on a wig and an outfit and doing a stupid voice, and that’s essentially what sketch shows are. “It’s the most non-real job you can have, I reckon.” Kitty Flanagan will perform at the Albury Entertainment Centre Saturday, 2 June.

What’s on

SUPERHEROES… Heroes for Hire are heading to the Border tonight.

Heroes for Hire heading for here By BLAIR THOMSON

The intimate venue aims to provide a space for young musicians to improve their live performance skills. “There are opportunities for everyone as you can register to be a headlining act, a support act or even just put your name down for the open mic,” Ms Wright said. The event is all ages, and drug, smoke and alcohol free. Tickets cost $5 per person and are available on the night. Doors open 7pm and close at 10pm. Two more performances are planned at the venue this year in August and November. For more information or to enquire about performing, please phone Arts Space Wodonga’s coordinator Jennifer Wright on (02) 6022 9600.

HEROES for Hire will bring their pop-punk sound to Arts Space Wodonga tonight (Friday). The five piece have built a following on the back of songs like Bright Lights in Paradise, The Calling and Secrets, Lies and Sins, and recently performed on the Soundwave tour. They will perform as part of The Vibe, a new series of gigs for local established and emerging young performers. “The first gig was well attended and many young musicians were not scared to get up and give it a go,” Arts Space Wodonga co-ordinator Jennifer Wright said. “It was really relaxed and fantastic. “The audience made themselves at home and got comfortable on the bean bags and armchairs.”

FEAR HER CURSE

SUNNY DAYS… Sesame Street characters will feature at the Albury Entertainment Centre tomorrow.

Sunny day for kids By BLAIR THOMSON BORDER children will have the chance to meet their favourite Sesame Street characters at the Albury Entertainment Centre tomorrow (Saturday). Big Bird, Grover, Zoe, the Cookie Monster and Abby Cadabby will feature in Elmo’s World Tour, with The Count and Bert and Ernie to also make an appearance. While the show is aimed at preschoolers, Fred Porter from Life Like Touring said the fun-filled show could be enjoyed by people of all ages. “I think there are a lot of things that have made Sesame Street so enduring,” he said. “Apart from being educational, it’s entertaining and there are a lot of positive

messages that come out of it as well. “It’s been on TV for more than 40 years and we’ve all got Sesame Street memories from childhood. “It’s the most viewed children’s TV show in the world.” Mr Porter and his Melbourne team visited New York earlier this year to record the show’s soundtrack with original cast members. Seeing grown men and women speak in the iconic voices was a little bizarre at times. “It’s a bit of a strange environment to be in,” he said with a laugh. “We worked with them to record the voices used in the show and the soundtrack. “The show features some original

Box office

Sesame Street songs and others that are brand new for this production.” Young audience members have enjoyed seeing the TV characters being brought to life on stage. “Their eyes very much light up when they come out,” Mr Porter said. “It’s been running since March and we’re achieving two or three sold-out shows a day in each area we visit.” Mr Porter said the two Albury shows at 10am and noon had been selling quickly, with a few seats still remaining. Tickets cost $19.90 and the show lasts for an hour. “It’s only coming to Albury for two shows so people should get in soon so they don’t miss out,” he said.

Sheen leads The Way By BLAIR THOMSON MOVIE: The Way (PG) DURATION: 121 minutes AT FIRST this movie feels a lot like those artsy ads for banks or new cars that try to be deep and meaningful, but ultimately lack substance. You know, the ones with cheap slogans like, “imagine if a bank could be both everything, and nothing, all at the same time” with slow-motion shots of a child playing at park. Martin Sheen plays Tom, an eye doctor who is informed by a French police officer that his son Daniel has died during a pilgrimage through the Pyrenees. Emilio Estevez, Sheen’s actual son,

directs this family affair and makes a few brief appearances largely as a figment of his father’s imagination and memory. Tom journeys to the picturesque area where his son died to collect his remains. Recounting his advice that he should get out and see the world a little more, he takes his ashes and backpack and embarks on the pilgrimage which killed his son as a symbolic gesture to his lost offspring. It takes a while to get into gear, but when it does, it’s quite interesting and a little bit inspiring. At times you feel like chucking on a backpack and taking the trek yourself. The characters Tom meets along the way, some of whom join him as they

march forward, all add their stories and insights and help add depth to the film. In the beginning it feels like you’re watching Martin Sheen, millionaire, Hollywood big shot and father of rabble-rouser Charlie Sheen, but his character slowly comes through and you forget it’s an actor you’re watching. He puts on a very decent (but not astonishing) performance in what is ultimately a unique and thought-provoking journey. Most movies are too long these days – this one goes more than two hours – but at no point does boredom set in with enough unexpected moments and sub-plots to keep things interesting throughout.

Rural Living A country feel but still close to town

MODERN CLASSIC… This home has just about everything you could dream of.

Enzo Raimondo CEO Real Estate Institute of Victoria

Changing the way buyers are helped THE Victorian government has changed the way in which they will be assisting first home buyers so that more people benefit. The First Home Buyers Grant of $7000 remains available for all those buying their first home for $750,000 or less. The grant is paid by the state government and has no scheduled end date. First home buyers also benefit from a 20 per cent reduction on their stamp duty bill. That means that on the purchase of a $400,000 home they will save $3274 and on a $550,000 home they will save $4994. The stamp duty reduction is not available for homes priced over $600,000. The good news is that on 1 January the cut to stamp duty will increase from 20 per cent to 30 per cent. That means that on the purchase of a $400,000 home they will save $4911 and on a $550,000 home

they will save $9321. The stamp duty cut will then increase to 40 per cent on 1 January 2014 and then to 50 per cent on 1 September 2014. From 1 July the First Home Buyers Bonus will no longer be available. The bonus was only for first home buyers of a new home and was introduced a few years ago to stimulate the building of new homes during the GFC. It has done its job and now the government’s preference is to help all first home buyers. Those buying a new home off the plan will still benefit from concessions to stamp duty. There is other assistance available for different groups, including exemptions for deceased estates, family farms, young farmers and pensioners. Details on those programs and the exact criteria for the assistance for first home buyers can be found at www.sro.vic.gov.au.

We have several Rural Lifestyle Properties for sale adjacent to existing reserves and wildlife corridors. Visit our website at www.awc.gov.au or call 60238000 to see what’s available.

Country life minutes from town Blocks from 500sqm all the way right up to 2200sqm THE NEW Wattle Views Estate offers country living less than five minutes from the heart of Wodonga. Alatalo Bros offers a wide range of block options, starting from 500 squares through to large blocks up to 2200 squares. “Families still want those large blocks,” Alatalo Bros general manager Tony Moyle explained. “People want their children to grow up off the street, kicking the footy around in the backyard with mum and dad, playing cricket, things like that. “It also provides plenty of space for pets to run around.” Located on Streets Road, the estate is currently being prepared for titles. “It’s due for public titles in about two months,” Mr Moyle said. “We’re at a stage where we’re going to put roads in in about three weeks and the sites are getting close to being ready for building. “We’ve already got one block sold, and another four on hold, so the interest has been very good so far.” Gently undulating blocks at the estate provide superb views of the hills surrounding Wodonga. “We’re looking to design homes to suit the natural slope of the land,” Mr Moyle said.

“We’ve also got close to 20 new designs that we’ve just released which is exciting. “The best thing is that people can come in with plans and designs, and we can draw them up for them at no cost, free of charge.” Changes can also be made to standard plans. A new Alatalo Bros display home was recently opened at 70 Streets Road, providing an insight into what your new home could look like. “It doesn’t have to be a standard plan,” Mr Moyle said. “We’ve got home designers who can tailor-make homes and make changes to plans at no cost. “If people want more information they can give Michelle or myself a call. “We’re always more than happy to have a friendly chat with people.” The first stage of the development contains 25 blocks, with more than 160 to be put on the market in coming years. All homes are ready to be hooked up to the National Broadband Network when the NBN teams visit Wodonga. For more information call 6055 0180 or visit www.alatalobros.com.au.

League against league as reputations go on the line Simon

Says with SIMON CORR THERE will be a notable absence of home and away AFL this weekend as interleague representative football kicks in, but I couldn’t resist putting fingers to keypad anyway even in the absence of our regular formal tipping page. The Ovens and Murray will travel down to Visy Park this Sunday to play the Hampden League and both the Hume and Tallangatta leagues will lock horns at the Albury sportsground on Saturday to win bragging rights as to who is the strongest district league in our region. The AFL went away from State of Origin football because they feared clubs, players and spectators no longer supported it. In the NRL it is exactly the opposite with rugby league followers more fanatical about the game than their season-ending grand final. Locally inter-league has had a mixed response with some choosing to play and others seeing it as a good opportunity to take a break from football for albeit just one weekend. For the Ovens & Murray football league the stakes don’t get much higher. Long recognised as the premier competition outside of the metropolitan, recent inter-league results haven’t gone its way and a loss on Sunday will definitely not give this claim any credibility. Any league that attracts Brendan Fevola, Barry Hall and countless others with AFL experience should be comfortable with the standard of the competition. Unfortunately the inter-league rankings don’t and won’t support this, but a win on Sunday will go a long way to turning this around. Good news is that most of the league’s better players have all made themselves available, and I believe that under the watchful eye of playing coach Matt Pendergast the O&M’s strength right across the ground will be too great and the boys should once again experience the pleasure of winning a representative game. On Saturday one of the most debated topics in country football will be put to rest: which league is the better - the Hume or Tallangatta? As someone who played in both I have always found this very hard to judge. The Hume league’s conditions and playing facilities ensure an open free-flowing style of footy that rewards fleet-footed gut runners. The smaller and slightly heavier underfoot Tallangatta league grounds generally makes the competition very physical and as a result suit the strong heavy body type.

BIG FELLOW… Brendan Fevola in action at Yarrawonga. Pictures: CAROLINE STRAINIG Previously the game has been played at night, but this year the game will be decided on a Saturday afternoon at the neutral venue of the Albury sports ground. Former Wahgunyah coach Andrew Robertson will be at the helm of the Tallangatta league and has already added fuel to the fire by suggesting his league is the premier competition. His key players will include goal kicking ace and former Albury premiership player Trent Castles, Thurgoona captain and inter league lover Lucas Mellier and playing Chiltern coach Brian Durbridge. Howlong coach Marc Almond takes over the reigns for the Hume league. He will be reliant on Henty-strong-man Heath Ohlin, key Holbrook defender Michael Lamb and the mercurial former AFL player Troy Taylor. Football fans can be assured they will be treated to an outstanding contest full of players easily good enough to be playing in the Ovens and Murray. Inter-league football is unique in that players you try to beat week in week out now become team mates. Someone you disliked as an opponent turns out to be a top bloke as an ally. Last weekend’s Ovens & Murray round saw the all-powerful Albury Tigers move closer to its fourth consecutive premiership. The Tigers travelled to Yarrawonga for a top-of-the-table clash and once again Albury got the victory.

These two clubs have established one of football’s greatest rivalries and a third quarter melee involving most of the players was evidence to this. The only unfortunate thing was two of the league’s absolute guns, Brendan Fevola and Joel Mackie, had to spend 15 minutes of the final quarter on the sidelines after both received yellow cards. Did this influence the final result? We will never know. However, with Brendan Fevola certain to get a red card from his dance show, punters are already looking ahead to his appearance in their return clash later this year in Albury. It just keeps getting better!

Lake Hume fish stocks boosted By BLAIR THOMSON FISHERMEN will soon have fewer excuses for failing to get a bite following two fish releases at Lake Hume. Twenty thousand rainbow trout were released into the dam this week, following the release of 30,000 brown trout last week. The yearlings will take about six to eight months to grow to a good size, according to North East Anglers Association publicity officer Stan Miosge. “It depends on their food source, but they should put on weight very quickly,” he said. “After about six months you’ll probably be catching good-sized, eatable trout.” Anglers should be catching trout put into the dam in previous releases,

GOOD TIMES FOR FISHERMEN… Rex McDonnell and Stan Miosge. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON with winter a prime time for the fish. “These releases improve the trout fishing for the year,” Mr Miosge said. “We’re also stocking all the little waterways around Wodonga for the school holidays which is good for

the kids.” The fish restocking follows the release of 120,000 yellowbellys at Lake Hume at the start of the year. The releases are funded through fishing license fees.

Local Sport Hitting the right slot By TREVOR JACKSON LOOKING for something different to do this weekend? Then maybe slot car racing is for you. Revhead Slot Cars is open for business and ready to challenge your skills. Business owner Martin Hendriks said he initially wanted to create something to allow parents and children to enjoy time together and a passion for slot cars stemming from his childhood put him on track to create the new venue. “I’ve always had a thing about slot cars from when I was a kid,” Mr Hendriks said. “There were a lot of slot car shops around then and I got pretty involved in that.” With the help of his son Oliver and business partner Silvio Monteiro, Mr Hendriks created two tracks from scratch and has a variety of cars on offer to keep the budding motor-sport

fan interested. “We’ve got a six-lane track and an eight-lane track which we built ourselves,” he said. “You can run 1/32 scale or 1/24 scale cars. You can race Feraris, Lambourginis, V8s or even a Volkswagen or a Mini. We’ve got a quite a few here for people to hire, from Lightning McQueen up Formula One racing cars and old Chevys. “They vary a little bit in performance and I find that if you get an old 1960 Ford it handles like a 1960s Ford compared to a modern Ferrari … they seem to be pretty well on par.” The long, winding tracks provide plenty of opportunity for drivers to enjoy the challenge with friends or family and Mr Hendriks said he was hoping to start club racing as soon as possible. “We are going to have race nights for adults and Sundays for kids,” he said. “We’re trying to get people involved and

get a bit of a club going. We have a few blokes interested in the club, but we need a few more members to kick it off. We hope to run it at night with a series of races for different classes like V8 Supercars or Formula One cars depending on what people want. Eventually we’d like to get teams going head-to-head.” Mr Hendriks said he’d seen many technical changes to cars over the years with more powerful motors, less wearing parts and magnets to hold the cars on the track. But he said come race day the magnets were removed and it all came down to driver ability. If you’ve ever had an interest in slot cars then drop into Revheads above Jay Jay’s at 486 Dean Street Albury and check it out.

Podium reward for team effort By TREVOR JACKSON JASON Bright has put in an impressive performance to give Brad Jones Racing its first podium position of the 2012 V8 Supercar season. Bright took his BOC Commo-

PODIUM… Jason Bright celebrates the first podium position for Brad Jones Racing on Sunday at Phillip Island.

dore to third place in Sunday’s race at Phillip Island after the team took a gamble with an aggressive onestop strategy. Most teams were opting for two stops during the 45-lap race and the BJR strategy soon placed Bright at the head of the field after an early safety-car period. Despite leading the pack Bright was in conservation mode, with enough fuel to make the gamble pay off if the car was running lean and therefore producing less power. But with the advantage of clean air and no competitors close by to slow his progress, Bright began to gap the field. A further safety car hampered his charge but after a lengthy pit-stop to fill a near-dry fuel tank he returned to the circuit with good track position ready to race to the flag. Tyres came into play later in the race but Bright was able to hold off some of the more fancied teams to eventually take the podium position. The result came after a racing incident with Craig Lowndes in Saturday’s race saw him punted off the circuit, only to see him return and claim eighth position. Bright said his car was fast from the time they hit the track in the first

practice session and said the hard work from his team was beginning to pay dividends. “We’ve made a bit of ground over the last couple of rounds,” Bright said. “I think the car is more adaptable to each track than what it was and it was pretty quick out of the box. We were in the top three most sessions on the weekend and I’m pretty confident that we’ll be able to do that a lot more often now.” Bright put the accident with Lowndes on Saturday down to a racing incident, although a somewhat disappointing one. “I know he didn’t mean it,” he said. “I was frustrated because I thought we were looking pretty good in that race. At a time when we were trying to be conservative and not take any risks we ended up getting punted off.” A bit of tweaking to the car setup overnight provided Bright with what he needed to be competitive Sunday and he took the opportunity with both hands. “The car may not have been as good qualifying but it was a better race car,” Bright said. “It was probably one of the best stints I’ve had for a long time.”

ACHIEVEMENT… Gerard Hinsley was this month awarded with Wodonga council’s Young Achiever Support Scheme. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON

Young achievers do us proud THIS month, four young Wodonga residents were honoured with Young Achiever Support Scheme (YASS) awards for representing their state and Australia in two very different sports. From the sport of tenpin bowling, 17-year-old Gerard Hinsley was congratulated by Wodonga Mayor Cr Mark Byatt on his recent qualification in the 2012 Asian Schools Championships in Jakarta. With a high score of 277, Gerard is also the current Junior Open Country Master and winner of the Wodonga Open Men’s Masters. The remaining three winners all come from the sport of horse riding and are members of the Wodonga Pony Club. At just 16, Alice Grimshaw has represented

the club at state level for horse trials, show jumping and games, and at the national level for horse trials. Her club mates, brothers Tom and Lachy Staats, were also congratulated on their horse riding achievements, representing their club numerous times at state level. Lachy, with his horse named Patrick, is currently competing at Grade 2 level horse trials and C grade level show jumping. Cr Byatt said that the achievements of these four young people at state and national level have continued to add to the region’s reputation for producing young sporting talent.

Celebrations to continue on the June long w’end CELEBRATIONS for Victory Lutheran College’s 20th birthday kicked-off at the beginning of the year with a Founders’ Day ceremony. This included talks from two teachers who had been involved with the school in its infancy. Commemorative badges were handed out to all students and chocolate birthday cakes were served. The festivities will continue on the June long weekend with celebrations for past families, students, staff members and current parents and staff. “The June long weekend is really celebration time for the past,” principal Cain McDonald said. “We’ll have tours around the school because a lot of people who are coming won’t have seen it for some time. “On the Saturday night we’ll have a big gala dinner with entertainment and an opportunity to hear from the two previous principals that came before me. “On the Sunday we’ll have a service which will be attended by the president of the Lutheran church in Victoria, and we also have Senator David Feeney coming to officially open the hall.” Mr McDonald said it had been heartening to see the pride the current students showed in the school with many commenting to him about how special the Founders’ Day was to them. “Later in the year we’ll finish with the putting down of a new time capsule and the students are giving me ideas about what to put in that,” he said.

SATISFACTION… Prep student Rachel Ladie enjoys an early-morning swing on the monkey bars before starting classes for the day.

DEMAND… A comfortable and pleasant environment has ensured a high demand for placement at Victory Lutheran College across all year levels.

Performance and satisfaction STUDENT performance and satisfaction are two ways to gauge success and Victory Lutheran College seems to be succeeding in both those areas. With just three years of Year 12 under its belt, Victory is already proving its worth with students graduating with impressive results. Principal Cain McDonald said if the students were able to access the pathways they wanted to access when they left Year 12 then they had done a really successful job.

“Last year every Year 12 student that left got into their first choice for university,” he said. They’ve all got scores that got them into the courses they wanted. “We’ve had one student who’s gone off to do medicine in Melbourne, and we’ve got a couple of others in education.” Another example Mr McDonald noted was a student who wanted to be a train driver because of his passion for trains. The school organised the

relevant vocational courses while the student was still at school, and he now has his dreamt-of job driving freight trains. “People always think about the doctors and the lawyers, but if we can get each individual student to the pathway they want to be on then we’ve done a wonderful job,” he said. Further proof of the school’s successful curriculum was the NAPLAN results and demand for places.
