FAMILY SUPPORT: Megan Anderson with parents Jacquie and Michael.

INSPIRATION Photo: BEN CAMERON

By BEN CAMERON

CUTTING a few laps is an everyday outlet for most teenagers with a driver’s licence. But for inspirational 15-year-old Megan Anderson, she’ll be doing 500 laps on a bike, to raise money and awareness for adolescent mental health. While many in Bendigo would baulk at the idea of riding to work even once a week, Megan will cycle 206 kilometres in one day, at the Tom Flood Velodrome on Friday, Oc-

Ride sheds light on mental health

tober 14, with funds raised going to St Luke’s youth mental health camps and Federal Government health initiative headspace. “It should take about eight hours,” Megan said with a wry grin, all too aware of the hard work ahead. But a few hundred laps of the velodrome will be nothing compared to the mental hurdles the Ben-

digo South East College student has scaled in the past 12 months. Megan’s troubles began a few years ago when she began fainting. Thinking it was hereditary, the family weren’t too concerned until early last year, when she began fainting up to 10 times a week. Turns out Megan suffered from psychogenic seizures; a condition

where mental stress can manifest into physical difficulties. “It comes from the stress of school and school work,” she said of the conversionary illness. At its worst, the family estimated she had more than 80 episodes in third term last year; most of them happening at school, which came with large physical and social impli-

cations. But along with a solid network of support from family and friends, integral to her recovery has been the bike, and today, she suffers just one seizure in a normal week, depending on how she’s feeling. In preparation for the October ride, Megan took another impressive step forward recently, when she spoke to nearly 200 Year 9 students about her recent battles, and the importance of resilience. Continued Page 2

Friday, September 2, 2011 – Bendigo Weekly

By ANTHONY RADFORD

A BENDIGO lawyer is the first to come forward as a possible successor to retiring Member for Bendigo Steve Gibbons. Bendigo Labor insiders have put forward Petersen Westbrook Cameron director Greg Westbrook as a possible Labor candidate at the next federal election. Mr Westbrook told www.bendigoweekly.com.au at the moment, he was in the running. “I wouldn’t rule myself out,� he said. “I haven’t given it much thought, as Steve’s retirement came out of the blue, but it is something I would certainly consider.� Mr Westbrook said it was important the Labor candidate was a local, not an outsider flown in by

Lawyer doesn’t rule out running for Gibbons’ vacated federal seat

the party. “Whoever it is, it has to be a Bendigo person who is passionate about Bendigo,� he said. “Local people would expect someone from Bendigo to represent them well.� Mr Westbrook was a passionate campaigner against Workchoices in 2005, and is a board member of education provider CE Bendigo. He is also on Bendigo Health’s ethics committee. Despite her rejection of the idea, former Bendigo Health chairman and prominent lawyer Marika McMahon has also been linked to the candidacy.

POSSIBLE CANDIDATE: Greg Westbrook.

The Bendigo Weekly understands high-level local Labor Party members are pushing for her preselection. State Member for Ben-

digo East Jacinta Allan has rejected any push at a federal tilt, which leaves previous Labor preselection candidates such as Bill Murray to possibly throw their hats into the ring. Mr Gibbons, Bendigo’s longest serving federal MP, said the current political environment had no bearing on his decision to retire at the next election. “History has shown the Howard Government recovered and went on to win the 2001 election comfortably. I expect Labor will do the same and be very competitive in 2013�. “The Labor federal vote in Bendigo is in

the strongest position it has ever been, arguably since Federation, and I’m confident with Labor’s outstanding record of achievement for Bendigo and Central Victoria and with the right candidate, we will comfortably retain the Bendigo seat. “I express my sincere appreciation to my party and the electors from the division of Bendigo who placed great faith in me on five occasions�. “There is still a lot of work to be done over the next two years and for me it will be business as usual right up to the next federal election.� Both Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Opposition leader Tony Abbott praised Mr Gibbons for his hard work. To read what they said, go to www.bendigoweekly. com.au

Native knowledge on show

Bendigo’s biggest WHAT could be Bendigo’s biggest ever private housing development has been lodged with council. A four-storey, $12 million residential and commercial development will be built at 23 Wills Street, opposite Target, if approved by the City of Greater Bendigo council. The building includes underground car parking, a commercial and retail level and two levels of apartments. Developer and business consultant Scott Jackman has been in talks with the council and lodged the application this week. “It is pretty exciting,�he said.

Commercial site planned A MULTI-MILLION commercial and retail development is planned for a historic CBD block. The Backhaus Estate is seeking expressions of interest for a planned 2300 square metre, three-storey building on the corner of Williamson and Mollison streets. The block of land is currently a private car park, and gives uninterrupted views of historic buildings such as St Paul’s Cathedral and hall. Estate trustee Jack Moore told the Bendigo Weekly the estate was talking to council, but had not yet lodged an application.

Hospital tenders opened THE State Government yesterday announced the opening of tenders for the $630 million Bendigo hospital redevelopment. Health Minister David Davis released the invitation for Expressions of Interest for the project, saying it was a major milestone. “It will assist Bendigo Health in creating a skilled workforce for the future provision of high quality patient care through investment in facilities, education and training,� he said. “The New Bendigo Hospital project will provide a world-class regional hospital with expanded capacity including an integrated regional cancer centre and a new psychiatric inpatient facility.� The EoI will be available at www. tenders.vic.gov.au

Magazine tunes into Bendigo

MAGAZINE MUSIC: Craig Spencely, cheesemaker, builder and clarinetist. Photo: ANTHONY WEBSTER

IF ever the call goes up for a doctor in the house, the Bendigo Symphony Orchestra’s audience will be spoilt for choice. With one heart surgeon, a paediatric surgeon and an orthopaedic surgeon, two GPs, a nurse, a psychologist and a podiatrist, just about every eventuality is covered. Journalist Sarah Harris has revealed the many faces of the BSO in a stunning story in the spring edition of the Bendigo Magazine. “From handymen to cheesemakers there are many strings to this orchestral bow,� she writes. “It is a place where 12-year-old trumpeter James Earl and 87-year-old violinist Alf Thompson come together to share the common language of music.� The magazine also reveals some of the history and stories of Ben-

digo’s laneways and reveals Bendigo’s thriving parkour circuit. Well-known and well-respected historian Geoff Hocking puts the Hargreaves Mall in perspective with other public spaces around the world and he is scathing. “I think we have allowed a bleak and soulless space to be imposed on our gracious city and as a consequence our heart is in danger,� he writes. “Those large toiletblocks do not a grand mall make. They are just funny dunnies after all. “Those depressingly dark screens do nothing at all; they don’t flicker, entertain or engage. You can’t even climb up that thing at the Mitchell Street end. If form follows function what function can that possibly perform?� Bendigo Magazine is out next week at any Bendigo newsagent.

Bendigo ‘insulated’ from financial woe

Riding the storm By ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGO is well-positioned to combat the effects of a second global financial crisis, according to a local expert. While jobs are lost in manufacturing, and stock markets around the world bounce up and down, City of Greater Bendigo council City Futures director Stan Liacos believes Bendigo is well insulated. “Bendigo is in a strong position, with sound growth momentum, a competitive advantage and a diversified economy,� he said. “Nationally, unemployment is about 5.1 per cent and we are running in at about 6.6 per cent. “In past decades we have been running substantially higher than the national average, so that is a good sign.� Mr Liacos said large building

projects like the hospital redevelopment and the car park were signs things were good. “Bendigo seems to be in a far better position economically than what it was in the past,� he said. “There are some outstanding major projects on the horizon, such as the hospital.� Mr Liacos was quick to urge caution when talking the economy down. “I would suggest talk of a recession is just as much propaganda as it is literal,� he said. “We should avoid talking ourselves down. “At the end of the day this isn’t an exact science. “It would be unwise to assume we would not be impacted.� Former Bendigo Traders’ Association president Neil Athorn said the global downturn and the

Resident battles VicRoads over traffic lights

Crossing the line AN Eaglehawk Road resident has accused VicRoads of poor planning and a lack of accountability, after a set of traffic lights and a street crossing were installed just metres from the front of his house. Scott Hosking is seeking compensation from VicRoads over the upgrades, made in July last year, which he said have created major safety and amenity problems. After four metres of nature strip was removed to make way for the duplication of Eaglehawk Road, new traffic lights and the crossing at Don Street, Mr Hosking said he has to back his car into oncoming traffic. “Some mornings it takes 10 minutes to get out of our driveway,” he said. “If it’s dark and foggy, the dangers of backing into oncoming traffic is obvious. “We have elderly residents living next door who are also affected.” Mr Hosking said his neighbour had been forced to live at the opposite end of his house to avoid the noise. “I’d like to invite (VicRoads regional director) Mal Kersting to come out and have a look at what’s been done and tell me if he’d be happy with this

matically increased traffic flow in the past 12 months. “Traffic flow is now 10 times busier,” he said. “Nobody informed me, no registered mail or business cards were left at my residence while I was at work.” However, Mr Kersting said VicRoads visited local residents and businesses to discuss the project and held a project information event held in March, 2009. “Where individual meetings were not possible, letters were left encouraging residents to contact VicRoads,” he said.

“We have turned the volume down at one of the signals and we are reviewing the safety and practical implications of turning the sound off in the evenings. “VicRoads will continue to monitor the operation and safety of the road and intersection, including access and exit for locals from their properties.” Mr Hosking, who says he will contact Channel Nine’s A Current Affair to voice his concerns, has no plans of letting the matter lie. “I’m a former boxer so I don’t walk away from a fight,” he said.

BendigoAhead As we look towards the future of Bendigo, attention points to one of the drivers of the city’s economy – the public education sector

Science of teaching By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

THE Bendigo Education Plan, now six years in, is more than just buildings. Despite the fact the four new junior secondary colleges and their one amalgamated senior secondary campus have each benefited from significant upgrades, Dale Pearce said that is not the main game. “It’s not just about the spaces,” the principal of Bendigo Senior Secondary College said. “These facilities have been designed to accommodate stage-related learning. “If you think that teaching is an art, that’s fine, but there’s all manner of information that tells you teaching is a science. “If you don’t believe people – all people – can learn, then you’re in the wrong game. And what we are aiming at is for teachers too to go on learning. “Why would your learning stop when you become a teacher?” Before the state election at the end of last year, a leaked education union document suggested some teachers were unhappy with the revolution in methodology forced on them under the BEP. Mr Pearce said a “negative perception of what is occurring” was put out by those who were unwilling to commit to a new model which requires teachers to adopt a more team-based approach. While there were difficulties at the start, as the junior secondary schools began to adapt to big changes, Mr Pearce said the benefits are now beginning to become clearer. “These are now wonderful learning facilities, and they will get better,” he said. “There are now significant improvements in standards, and it’s important to judge on the basis

It was, for example, the first school not just in Australia but in the world that had internet cabling in every classroom. That willingness to

with teachers where the expertise is not available on campus). Also under development is a better use of resources through identifying what he calls “specialisms”, such as maths and science. The idea is for a study centre, based near to but not within the current BSSC campus, to be shared with the other schools. “As we grow, I can see a range of facilities in the city centre,” he said. “We already have a trade-training model which has shared access to

a number of schools.” Three of the aims around which the BEP was built were to improve attendance rates, particularly at years 7-10, increase retention rates for students moving from junior to senior level, and also to increase the number of students who will go on to tertiary study. A “pathways” program is being developed to tailor a progression through each phase of school for individual students. Over time, Mr Pearce said pathway programs will help students compete for increasingly competitive university places. At the same time, Bendigo’s only senior secondary state school must provide for the diverse needs of more than 1700 year 11 and 12 students, working in conjunction with the two other senior secondary schools, Catholic College and Girton Grammar. “You’d like to think it’s good to have three strong education providers in Bendigo,” Mr Pearce said. “Parents should be able to make a choice. “When students come on to this site, I am confident about the quality of what they see here.”

Mum offers support for spina bifida sufferers

Pushing the cause

WITH Spinal Bifida Awareness Week set for next week, one brave Bendigo woman, Nicole Logan, continues her campaign for greater support. Three of her seven children have been born with varying degrees of SB, and she lost son Josh in September 2002, coincidentally during Spinal Bifida Awareness Week. Her third eldest, 14-year-old Caleb was the first to be born with SB – a congenital defect of the central nervous system – and has since had more than 20 operations, with more to come. It was Josh’s death which triggered Nicole and her family to be-

gin their own local support group. “Some people don’t have the support of family, partners, friends or anyone who can offer un-judged assistance,” she said. “There is no government funding and we raise money like most support groups and hope for donations or grants along the way.“ Mrs Logan also has a facebook page called “Connecting Together – Spinal Bifida Awareness”. “Spina Bifida is our life now and we are more than happy to help others in any way we can,” she said. connecting: nicole Logan continues her campaign.

Committee for Bendigo Well done Weekly. The ideas for a committee for Bendigo challenge (August 19 and 26). “We lack that one single group capable of being the voice for Bendigo. A committee: (1) to act as a forum; (2) find out what the community needs and advocate on its behalf; (3) lobby and talk directly to the state and federal governments and advise local politicians; (4) whose members are the best and brightest.” The need for a committee implies opportunities are being lost and we can do better. Readers might agree. Of course it’s controversial. It should be. It makes you think, and ask how to optimise the city’s performance for all residents. The Weekly claimed: “For too long, specialised cliques and interest groups have knocked... progress back, to the detriment of the rest of the community.” Geelong and Ballarat website material shows a committee maybe useful. encouragingly the committees research, validate, build community support, and initiate, longer-term private and public sector projects that improve their cities. Despite business dominating the committees, it is still the elected councils and governments with the final say. The last thing our city needs is another backslapping flattering group beholding to council or toadying to politicians. Council tends to listen to those who agree, resisting public research and debate. Geelong’s committee is encouraging: “We boldly question the effectiveness of local government structures and lobby to maximise the efficacy of our civil steward-

ships”. I presume it rigorously analyses council plans, budgets, and reports; not so Bendigo. I doubt such a committee would submit a $26 million second theatre as Greater Bendigo’s Regional Development Australia Fund first priority. How we get a better council is still a problem. A good start would be an external review of council governance and management to identify improvements and savings. Maybe a Committee for Bendigo could ginger that along? A committee cannot overcome evident council management and performance weaknesses, but it would act as a talented partner and motivator. There are risks, but on balance the gains outweigh concerns. Ted Coleman, Strathfieldsaye

Separate fact from fiction In recent weeks two writers to the Bendigo Weekly letters column have deliberately distorted the facts in their haste to cut down a tall poppy legally operating in this country. Fact: The enquiry proposed by Bob Brown was to look into media operations and ownership rules in Australia, not just the activities of Murdoch’s news limited. Fact: The Murdoch empire does not control 70 per cent of the media in this country but in fact owns less than 50 per cent of the print media. Fact: news ltd flagship The Australian endorsed the re-election of the Gillard Government. Hardly poisonous far right vitriol I would have thought. Fact: Julia Gillard in her recent address to cabinet stated there is no evidence that news limited has breached any laws in Australia and congratulated it on holding an in-

dependent audit into its operations. Fact: It was not a Murdoch newspaper alleged to have unlawfully accessed the computer files of a political party prior to an election. Bendigo readers have the opportunity to purchase two daily newspapers from the Murdoch stable and two from the Fairfax stable. If one out-sells the others it is accepted as consumer choice in a free and competitive market. My objective is not to defend any company but to allow the readers of

A matter of health BENDIGO’s youth gets a poor run at times, especially in the media. While there are a handful of idiots who sometimes step over the line, we need to put things in perspective and look at the real youth issues. One of those youth issues is mental health. Bendigo has a big problem with diagnosing and treating youth mental health properly. Our health services are inept to cope with them and they often fall through the cracks. It then falls to places like st Luke’s to pick up the, often dangerous, pieces. Mental health doesn’t need to have a stigma attached to it. It is an illness and should be treated as such. Just like breaking your leg, you need to go to the doctor or hospital, and get treatment. We need to look at mental

Editorial Comment health issues in these terms. We need to see it as nothing more than a chemical imbalance in the brain, that can usually be fixed with medication or counselling. Nobody thinks twice if you go to the doctors with a broken leg. Workplaces are prepared to give you time off work, and are happy to be flexible with hours and roles for a physical illness or injury. they should think the same way about mental illness. It is not a major issue, it is simply a medical condition, and we all have them. someone who is keen to focus

the community on mental illness is Megan Anderson. the Bendigo teenager understands the stigma that comes with being under the mental illness spotlight. It is stories like hers – someone who is prepared to stand out and do something great for a cause that needs all the help it can get – that deserves coverage, which is why we chose to run it on the front today. Megan and her family must be congratulated and Bendigo must be urged to help out. Youth mental health in Bendigo needs more support than it gets now. to support Megan, cheques can be sent to Bendigo south East College, Meggi’s Ride and addressed to BsEC, Ellis st, Flora Hill 3550.

Stuck in a hard place

It’s a trade in human misery involving people who count misery as a constant companion. But just how does Australia manage the flood of people attempting to travel to Australia on boats, risking their lives in some of the most treacherous waters on the planet, in their bid for a better life. No one seems to have an answer on what Australia can do, only what we cannot do. this week’s High Court ruling only confirms what most Australians already knew – there appears is in fact no solution. From anyone. But in the meantime, what was once an essentially humanitarian issue has been hijacked to become one of the most sensitive and emotive political issues of our time. the Commonwealth’s premise that the government could lawfully declare Malaysia a safe third country even though it had no domestic or international legal obligations to protect asylum seekers was, and is, farcical. It only served to highlight the mire which the federal government has gotten itself into in a desperate search not just for an answer, but for the credibility, respect, trust and accountability sadly lacking in the federal parliament today.

this might be an over-simplification, but I often wonder how Australia transformed from a society that so openly embraced Kosovar refugees from the Balkans conflict back in 1999, to where we are today. Operation safe Haven, billed as one of the biggest humanitarian exercises ever undertaken by a government agency, provided a temporary safe haven to nearly 4000 displaced Kosovars.

“What was once an essentially humanitarian issue has been hijacked” Admittedly, this was always going to be done on a temporary basis only, with initial visas issued for three months or until it was safe to return home, but I wonder would Australia do this again today if the same circumstances existed? I would hope so. In the countdown to Wednesday’s momentous High Court decision, I read of a Roy Morgan poll held in several countries, just before the deadly 9/11 attacks of september 2001, which considered support or otherwise of the viewpoint that all refugee boats should be “put back to sea”. support in the Us was 25

ard Government prior to the 2007 election might be one option, but it’s likely to draw more interest from the legal fraternity over the questionable status of Nauru as a “processing centre”, and would be immensely unpopular and unpalatable to many Australians. In a political twist, however, it would give the Opposition considerably less to crow about than this week’s humiliating rebuttal from the High Court. And so this is a Federal Government not so much stuck between a rock and a hard place as it is now a government simply stuck in a hard place … nowhere.

ed strawberry plants in the holes in the blocks. “It may look small and the plants too close together, but they will support each other as they grow and when you start to harvest them more space is created,� Keith said. “I can’t imagine a season without home-grown tomatoes, the early ones are available now but be sure to protect them from the frost. “Ideally, cover them with a geothermal fabric and leave it on. It will create a warm atmosphere during the day and warm the ground to promote strong growth.� Spring is also a good time to plant strawberries, spinach, potatoes, rocket, beetroot, onions, broad beans, parsley, tarragon, mint, coriander and lemongrass.

SPRING has sprung and it’s time to bring your inner gardener out of hibernation. Whether you want to be more selfsufficient, save money, be more environmentally aware or just grow and enjoy your own fresh and tasty produce, spring is a great time to start a kitchen garden. Keith Macdonald of Macdonald’s Nursery was kept busy at his no-dig garden demonstrations last weekend with plenty of participants in both sessions. “Gardens are in, we have had strong demand for the grow-your-own varieties the past few weeks,� Keith said. “During the winter months, the barerooted fruit trees were popular and now it’s the berries. Rambler types like raspberries, blackberries and boysenberries are easily controlled and can be grown in a small space. Blueberries are a shrub and can be grown in containers.� Keith’s no-dig garden design is ideal for unit dwellers or those with limited garden space and it’s cheap and simple to construct. A few masonry blocks (all the better if they have holes in them) placed directly on the ground, even on concrete. Place a layer of sugar cane mulch and finish off with a mix of compost, zoo poo and cow manure. Keith planted broccoli, lettuce, rocket, baby spinach and spring onions in his garden and the spinach is ready to pick after only four weeks. He cleverly includ-

LAST year it was bugs, this year it is spiders. And it is designed to attract other little pests. The Bendigo Conservatory is home to the City of Greater Bendigo’s Children’s Art Network installation Tricky Traps until September 11. Last year the attraction was called a Bug’s Eye View, but this year it

features colourful acrylic webs spun throughout the space. Created by artist Kathy Holowko, children will be encouraged to explore and play in the space and create their own artwork to share with other visitors. Ms Holowko said her installation will introduce children to the “wonder-

ful world of spider webs”. “The installation invites exploration and is an irresistible adventure through a tangled world of webs that is a physically engaging activity for children,” she said. Council Community Wellbeing director Pauline Gordon said art installations like Tricky Traps encouraged chil-

dren to engage, participate and experience the arts. “I urge children and their families to take some time to visit the Conservatory and experience this unique art installation,”she said. The exhibition is open to the public from 11am to 1pm weekdays and 11am to 3pm on weekends.

Journey’s end for Harry

Pets are part of the family. One litter has certainly been part of our adventure

STEVE KENDALL ON LIFE

As kittens, the four played happily on the loch coast, as kittens will, only occasionally digging up the neighbour’s flowers. Understandably, he often chased them away, and they guiltily rushed back through the fence, muddy paws evidence of their misbehaving. It was a life of luxury for cats in Ullapool, a small fishing port with plenty of ocean treats available for felines. Salmon too at times. Spoilt. We spent some time in Kent in England, and the kittens came too. Enjoying the

challenge of town life. They travelled down by aircraft, a taste of a longer journey to come. Harry arrived with the water bowl rim around his neck and leg, it looked like he had tried to escape via the drinks bowl. The four kittens took to their new life well, the two girls managing to climb trees the day they were desexed. Definitely against better judgement, but certainly showing some spirit of the breed. They were all wanderers bar Harry. We once lost the white female for 17 weeks,

the white male went on walkabout for a similar time, but thanks to the wonders of microchipping they were returned. After another stint in Scotland, and then six months in Sussex, the cats emigrated with us to Australia. That was January 2003. They flew a day in advance via Qantas, and we were able to call ahead before we flew to know they had arrived safely. We settled into Victoria, and their quarantine soon passed. Since March, 2003 Harry

has lived in the one house, perfectly calm and tabby to perfection. He was never one to hunt successfully, he failed to work out that yowling at the top of his meow when stalking gave him away. Once I saw his sibling sisters corner a mouse and encourage him to catch it (honest) and he couldn’t manage the catch and kill. What a softy. Harry had a straightlegged walk that made him look like a lizard, and as mentioned a meow that was nothing but full volume. He loved to sit on the bed the whole day, he must have had the biggest cat bladder in Victoria. When we thought he had been in long enough we sent him out. He responded to his

training from infancy in the wilds of Scotland, and would leave the room as soon as we said: “Ooot, ooot ooot,” in a Scots accent. He was a treasure. We had been noticing he was looking a little under the weather, and last week the long-suffering Dr Kendall took him into work for a full-on catogram. Dr K being a vet as well as a surrogate mum to Harry. It didn’t look good. Harry was not going to fix. Dr K discussed the likely outcome with me, and we came to the conclusion it was only going one way. I went along to see Harry one more time. We had vet nurses and another vet helping as Dr K sent Harry off to sleep, to a special cat land where the mice can be caught and the Whiskas and salmon never run out. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house. He may have only been a cat, but he was our cat. The perfect tabby. Bye Harry.

0209

HARRY MACDONALD was born in Durnamuck, Scotland in June 1999. He was first in a litter born to a tabby mum, and a white tomcat known as Billy. Billy was a wanderer, and there was many a litter born in that remote part of the west coast with a white cat in the pack. Harry was the perfect tabby with not a patch of white – just like his mum. He had a black sister, a white sister and a white brother. I had singled out his pregnant mum as a potential mother to my longed for tabby. The day the litter was born, I rushed over from my home in Ullapool to see them. I could not choose, and said I’d take all four. The owner was relieved, it saved her a lot of trouble in the long run. Seven weeks later, Harry and his siblings moved in with us, they arrived with half a rabbit thoughtfully brought to them by dad Billy as a parting gift.

Harry had a straight-legged walk that made him look like a lizard

SPIN DOCTORS BEN CAMERON TWO Bendigo DJs will bring their skills in spin to thousands later this year. Rueben Heenan and Brad Smit will spin tracks at mega summer dance festivals S t e re o s o n i c (December 3), and Summadayze (New Year’s Day) as DJ duo, Press Play. It’s a pretty big deal, with both festivals expected to draw well over 50,000 punters, although Heenan’s pretty chilled about the whole thing. “The reaction was mainly of gratitude and appreciation, such a privilege to be involved with such big scale music festivals and working with the best of the best,” he says. Five years ago, Heenan and Smit were just like hundreds of other local teenagers with a love of dance music. Deciding to take it to the next level, Heenan began DJing at friends parties, before landing his first residency at Star Bar every Thursday night, which led to a regular slot at Hyper Nightclub, then Huha – a place he’s called home for the past three years. “I was inspired from my first couple of nightclub experienc-

es,” Heenan remembers. “I was engaged in the whole vibe and atmosphere and naturally fell in love with the music. “I watched what the DJs did and studied the music until I decided to make the moves towards becoming a DJ myself.” Originally from Echuca, Smit bought his first set of decks from Heenan in late 2007, so an early bond was formed over the folding stuff. He began his DJ education in an Echuca club called OPT. Like Heenan, he too scored a residency at Huha, via the Universal Nightclub. “It took about a year of Djing once a week in a nightclub to feel comfortable behind the decks,” Smit says. For Heenan, setting himself up was a costly exercise, but the investment is beginning to pay dividends. “The first setup I purchased were very basic, I also didn’t have anyone teaching me so it took me a good six months to even get my head around the equipment,” he says. “Not as easy as it looks!” The origins of Press Play can be traced back to October 9 last year, when Heenan and Smith faced off in a “verses set”, at the first ever Huha Day After Party. “We discovered it also allowed us to bounce ideas off each other and for our different styles to come together, we decided a duo was in store,” Heenan says. Encompassing a range of

styles, from minimal, hip hop remixes, electro to commercial house, and inspired by the likes of Calvin Harris and Afrojack, Press Play have built a strong following. “We pride ourselves on our versatility and our ability to perform to any crowd,” Heenan says. “We’ve been working heavily in the Melbourne scene lately and the ‘Melbourne sound’ is definitely one of our favourite genres. “Melbourne music is generally slightly more minimalistic with a clean, driving bassline. “It’s hard to describe Melbourne music properly but it’s basically music from Melbourne producers... they say that Orkestrated are the pioneers of Melbourne music.” Orkestrated, along with Slice N Dice and Stevie Mink, are some of the out-of-towners that Heenan believes have helped raise the bar of the local dance scene in Bendigo, with Huha making a point of bringing top new DJs to Bendigo, week in, week out. And with the addition of Top Floor Fridays in January, Heenan believes Bendigo clubbers are getting a greater exposure to broader range of dance music styles. “If you would have asked me a year ago (what the local dance scene was like) I would have said not so good,” he says. “They’re (Bendigo clubbers) getting more open minded. “Where as it used to be that

the only music the majority of them wanted to hear was top 40 radio songs. “It’s great to Bendigo getting some diversity amongst the club music scene and even better is that people are embracing it.” With two major festivals looming at year’s end, Press Play will continue to plan big. All their future achievements

however will be based around the exhilaration of nailing a set. “It’s a great feeling, the most important thing about DJing is that the crowd are loving it,” Rueben says. “So if you can succeed at that then you’re set. “We really appreciate the support we get from Bendigo and Echuca people. “Our ultimate goal is to

be playing the main stages at the big festivals, there would be no better feeling and no greater sense of accomplishment. “We want to successfully produce some top charting tracks eventually, and just enjoy what we’re doing throughout the journey. “Yes, we’re dreaming big, but why not!”

UNDER ONE ROOF

AT Marketplace the other day, it was busy. People went about their business, shopping, having coffee, doing their thing. Strangely I was overcome with a sense of connectedness, sharing in the human-ness of the activity. It was like a pulse of energy coursing through that big building, housing us all together. Not the kind of sentiment you’re supposed to feel inside a large pre-fab building dedicated to consumerism I dare say – but, it was there. I was reminded of this feeling when I visited the Pride of Place exhibition, newly-opened at the Post Office Gallery, a Bendigo art space dedicated to unearthing and preserving the history and identity of our fair city. It’s the third time I’ve featured POG in this column, such does it provoke contemplation about where I now live, and what has come before. Rewinding – I also attended the official opening of the exhibition at the Shamrock Hotel, in the grand Federation Room, along with another 100 or so others. Eagerly they awaited the opening of what in essence celebrates the heritage of buildings built between 1860-1920 within the Greater City of Bendigo, taking in Axedale, Eaglehawk, Heathcote, Elmore, Redesdale and Bendigo. Curator Sandra Bruce said the crowd – mostly older genteeler folk – represented over 20 historical societies and heritage groups, with vested interests in preserving the architecture and

MEGAN SPENCER

structures within the region. It poses an interesting fusion of cultures, this show. In the past two POG exhibits, I have found Sandra’s curation thorough, yet distinctly youthful and energetic. I was curious to see how she might bring that sensibility to Pride of Place, dedicated to honouring ‘the old’. The answer was easy. Life has been breathed back into the overlooked. As Sandra whispered to me on the night: “Pride of Place is about community buildings, and a sense of identity and of place.” Consisting mainly of photos – and lots of them - sourced from a number of local benefactors and families, POP boasts beautifully-framed frozen moments in time. The pictures are of buildings, halls, schools, churches, temples and institutions, standing tall – some of them, not so – in our environs, from 1860 on. The Benevolent Asylum – now Anne Caudle Centre – really got to me, specially after reading what it was built for. So did the terrifying Eaglehawk and Heathcote lock ups, shiver. Built on gold money and community wealth, out of necessity and for most to be able to use and benefit from, depending of

course on race and circumstance, Pride of Place is a compelling survey of the many buildings we walk past every day. It prompts us to not take them for granted, and, what they have represented to prior generations. Lest we forget, buildings house people. Gazing at these images, I couldn’t help but imagine the thousands of locals going about their business within these community buildings, this time, from eons ago. Happy hopefully, indifferent perhaps, nonetheless all of them united under the roof of a place where they could indeed go about their business, whatever it may be. I’m guessing that Marketplace might not feature in such an exhibition, say in 100 years’ time. Sadly we won’t be marvelling at much of our modern architecture from now, in the future. But the idea and necessity of community does remain the same, whether housed in a beautifully ornate town hall from the 1800s, or a ready-built shopping shrine built five minutes ago. Importantly, Pride of Place reminds us of that continuity. We are all in this together. Pride of Place Runs until January 29, 2012.

Stretching the boundary

XS WR

RII

WHEN I first started writing about Bendigo’s Irishtown, I traced the boundaries of what was accepted as the area belonging to this portion of our city. However, during my research I was surprised to find that one particular enterprise defined itself as being in Irishtown, the North Bendigo Quartz Alluvial Mining and Drainage Company which began in 1857. It took this company until 1859 to issue its prospectus, there were some already well known local names associated with its launch. The company had extensive ground near the junction of California Gully, Job’s Gully and Jackass Flat, the alluvial portion of their lease was suited to steam puddling operations. There was also an immense amount of sludge from earlier puddling, however, it was shown through testing, that this sludge still held a significant amount of fine gold. There were also two shafts 55 metres deep on their ground, the early returns from the raised quartz had been highly remunerative, but water inflow was a problem.

JAMES LERK Civil engineer S Le Capelain recommended the company purchase suitable steam machinery to operate the puddling machine as well doing the pumping and haulage from these shafts. Directors of the North Bendigo QAM and D Company appointed their own engineer to begin the works required to operate and obtain a return from their investment. FC Klemm, one of Bendigo’s many influential German citizens was largely instrumental in having fellow national, Gustave Adolph Knobel, appointed as the company’s engineer. Knobel had already been actively mining in Bendigo having various leases and claims on different parts of the field. Steam machinery for Bendigo was ordered by Knobel from a Prussian manufacturer in Berlin, by the name of Wohlert. Knobel called for local tenders in April 1860, to construct two boiler settings and a chimney stack. During May, 1860 the machinery arrived in Bendigo and was taken to

CHANGING LANDSCAPE: Gustave Knobel called for tenders to erect the chimney at the Lady Barkley mine. Knobel boldly advertised in the Alexandra and Yea Standard in 1880, that he required a party of quartz miners to work the Arcona Mine on contract for a share of the gold raised. The Euroa Advertiser

reported that Knobel had received, from the Beechworth Prospecting Board in 1887, ÂŁ150 for his work to continue on the Arcona Reef at Merton. Gustave Adoph Knobel died on July 4, 1888.

Irishtown for installation. All was completed in early June when the machinery was officially set in motion. The machine was christened “The Sphinxâ€?, because of the way in which it had been mounted on two huge squared logs. Until recently Knobel had been an enigma and to some extent still remains so, in common with others in the mining community he moved about. It is known that Knobel had shifted to the Gobur goldfield by 1868. A report appeared in the Alexandra and Yea Standard when he appeared in the County Court in 1887 on a charge of trespass. The charge was in respect to his use of a water race which ran through a farmer’s paddock and was causing damage to the crops and pasture. Knobel argued that he had used the race for 19 years in order to operate a quartz crushing plant. A note was handed to Judge Chomley by Knobel indicating that he was, munificently insolvent, this caused some light mirth from the judge, who gave a verdict of a ÂŁ5 fine and ÂŁ7/7s in costs.

Being creative for Dad

S

TUDENTS at White Hills Primary School were busy using their artistic talent to give Dad something special this Father’s Day when the Bendigo Weekly called in earlier in the week to check on progress for the special day. Children from Grade 1 through to Grade 6 have been busy creating that gift for Dad

under the close supervision of art teacher Cadi Watchman. Grade 1 students Brodie and Dylan were pretty enthusiastic their dads would be impressed with their artistic endeavours. Some of the Grade 3 and 4 students proudly displayed their classes colourful and original figurines of their fathers.

While Grade 5 and 6 students Jamilla, Alanah, Emma and Fraser were also suitably impressed with their choice of gifts, letting dad get on top of jobs around the house with the help of their organiser in the shape of a hammer that could be proudly displayed where Dad was sure to see it.

Green gift to help Dad relax

GREEN WAY: Ease Dad’s load with some help in the garden.

D

O you want a great gift for your Dad? Does he need something to help with the jobs around the garden? Something that is convenient, easy to use, helps the environment and doesn’t need gift wrapping? Recent spring rains, have garden growth moving at a rapid rate and most of us are struggling to keep up. A Greenaway Bin is easily moved around the garden and helps home owners stay on top of their garden chores.

The Greenaway Bin service will collect every fortnight from your street and take your garden waste away for recycling locally. This will ensure your Dad is sitting back enjoying the outdoors, rather than making time consuming trips to the tip, not to mention the cost. Call 1300 033 606 or 5439 4470 today to have a 240 litre Greenaway Bin delivered in time for Father’s Day.

SAFE: Jenny from Care Beyond Measure and Bill share a lighter moment.

Giving care beyond measure D

OES this sound like you or someone you know? I remember when I was little Dad would chase me into bed at night and read me a story. Dad gave the best hugs. Dad was always there for me no matter how small my problems were. He was the strong one in the family. He held us together when times were tough and he was the one who helped calm me as we stood at the church door on the day of my wedding. Now I have to be the strong one because Dad

isn’t strong anymore. Though he still has that twinkle in his eye, he has started to forget things. Sometimes he thinks I’m Mum. I know he misses her. I used to feel guilty because I couldn’t always be there for him like he was for me. I work and have a family to care for, but I did my best. I asked him to live with us but he wants to stay in the home he loves. After all he has done, the least I can do is let him stay there as long as he can. Without Care Beyond

Measure, Dad couldn’t live independently. Now I don’t have to worry about his safety. They care for him when I can’t be there. Dad loves the company and I love the peace of mind. If you or anybody you know have elderly parents who need some extra help, talk to the people at Care Beyond Measure at 51 Myers Street, Bendigo. They really do care. Phone 5444 5662 or visit their website at www. carebeyondmeasure.com for more information.

Suitable for • Renovations • Building sites • Sporting events and many more

F other people say you can’t build it, give us a try,” said David Lacey when telling the Weekly about the diverse range of projects he has been involved in both in the domestic and commercial joinery field. Over his 25 years experience as a joiner he has worked with all ranges of materials from stainless steel to natural timber. Being a small joinery lets him keep overheads low, while being personally responsible for all work completed. A small workshop lets David prefabricate your joinery prior to installation on site. Larger projects pose no problem either with David’s expertise in dealing with sub-contractors and project management proving invaluable. From the usual to the unusual kitchen or bathroom designs and

manufacture of entertainment units and bookcases, there is nothing David can’t craft, from complete new fit-outs to renovations You can choose from the range of veneers currently available or the beauty of solid timber, to the contemporary look of the increasingly popular Lysaght’s Mini Orb as an alternative interior finish to the industrial look of polished steel. Recent examples of his skill include a curved kitchen island bench complete with curved drawers – which incidentally the client had previously been told couldn’t be done. He also remanufactured an ornate antique timber window to match an original which was beyond repair.

WILBUR

MALE, 6 YEARS Hi there, my name is Buster and i’m a very energetic boy who is best suited as an only dog. I am very affectionate but find shelter life very distracting with so many dogs talking at once. I will not be desexed until I am adopted. DSH, WHITE/GINGER MALE, 2 YEARS

Hi there, my name is Wilbur and I am a beautiful boy with a big personality. I love attention all to myself. When I approach you I will headbutt you and smother you with kisses and a lot of affection. I get along with other cats and would love an owner who would love to have a companion with them all the time. I am great potential to any family or individual. I will be desexed once I am adopted. The Bendigo RSPCA has many cats and dogs available for adoption, so if you or anyone you know is wanting a pet then come in and see us. If you are missing a pet, then come in and have a look to see if your pet is here or report it. Otherwise check out our website below or call us.

New life for old bikes

Recycling project brings hope and empowerment IT was an eye-opening moment for Bendigo teacher John Taylor to experience just how appropriate it is to send recycled mountain bikes to Africa. Last September, John went as part of a team to Chibobo, a remote area of Zambia, to convert a shipping container containing over 400 recycled bicycles, sent from Melbourne by Bicycles for Humanity, into a bicycle workshop. People in Chibobo, like many in rural Zambia, are mostly subsistence farmers, with an average annual income of a few hundred dollars, less than we earn in a week. Education and health services are limited and mobility is by an old worn out bicycle at best. “It’s common to see a 50kg load, or more, of maize, charcoal, or whatever they need to transport, strapped on the back of a bike,� John said. “Furthermore, nearly every bike you see is broken or worn out in some way and well beyond what we would consider its useful life.� In this setting, recycled mountain bikes are highly valued.

Panton Streets, Golden Square, 9am to 1pm Saturday. Bikes will be passed on to Bicycles for Humanity from these locations. “Having seen first-hand just how well this recycled bike program meets the needs of the people in Chibobo, I can wholeheartedly endorse a Bendigo collection of bikes for Bicycles for Humanity,� John said. Bikes should be sturdy, mountain bikes are ideal, and be serviceable or easily repaired. Generally, rusty bikes cannot be used by this collection. Small issues like cables or tyres are no problem. Children’s bikes and BMXs are also suitable. Please look in your shed for a bike suitable for this worthy cause. You can learn more about the program at www.bicyclesforhumanity.com Looking forward to seeing you on the road soon, God willing.

Your horoscope Aries (Mar 20 - Apr 19):

0209

Cancer (June 21 - July 21): You may feel out of sorts this week. Your feelings are in conflict with your ideal self and your values. You want to put your best foot forward, but circumstances do not feel quite right. If the conflict is deep, it is usually best to wait and not yield to whatever pressure is around you. You will sort it all out.

Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 22): Circumstances involving love life and money may feel tight. You may experience an emotional droop near the first of the week, in which you perceive yourself to be alone in the world. This is a temporary mood, so don’t take it seriously. You know you are prone to overreact at times. If you feel ill, you will recover quickly.

Taurus (Apr 20 - May 19): Don’t allow fear and pessimism to interfere with your pleasure in life. If something is nagging at you, take a clear and direct look at it. Is there really anything there, or have you invented your own worry? The blues may be your companion for a couple of days at the beginning of the week, but the cloudy time is short.

Leo (July 22 - Aug 21):

Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21):

Gemini (May 20 - June 20):

Virgo (Aug 22 - Sep 22): You have been considering your next agenda for several weeks. This may have to do with presenting your true feelings within a relationship. Somehow you are thwarted. The “other� may be ill or otherwise unavailable. Circumstances are beyond your control. Wait a week for better aspects.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 20): As Startrek’s Spock is fond of saying, “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few�. You may find yourself in a position to make decisions along these lines and you are among the few right now. September is a challenging month. The intuitive Archers always find a way through dilemmas.

“Freedom� has been your battle cry for several months now. However, this week the only road to liberty is to bite the bullet and handle details and responsibilities. A bright note is that the situation in relationship(s) is positive. You can enjoy working a project with others now.

Your focus shifts to matters of home, hearth, and family. Things of the past may float up in your mind for reflection. If this occurs, ask yourself what you learned from the former experience. It probably would help you now. Family concerns may occupy your attention.

You may be feeling low on resources during this period. “Resources� = time, money, energy. It is true that you are in a short dip, but the gloom will not last very long. Don’t beat yourself up over your past history. You always do the best you can, and you cannot know in advance the outcome of every decision.

0209

Capricorn (Dec 21 - Jan 19): Fortunate circumstances come your way through the internet, the law, education, travel or publication activities. Even so, you may feel isolated or as though no one around you can possibly understand who or what you are. Remember that feelings come and go like waves. This is temporary, if you notice it at all.

Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 17): You may be overloaded with ideas, plans, and inflated This is a highly favorable week. Those who are involved expectations at this time. Talk over important changes with any type of educational process will have cause to be with a trusted friend or a counselor. Sometimes we are proud of their work. Loans or other “shared resources� are unable to recognize and interpret facts objectively. You incoming now. The lights are green in both love and social may not be feeling well. Does your best friend share your life. Just take that step forward and you will be welcomed. views? Pisces (Feb 18 - Mar 19):

Monitor your inner and outer critics this week. It may be serving up a plate of neurotic guilt to interfere with your attitude. A better use of this energy calls for rising above the yada, yada of the droning voice. Set it aside and realise it is just the shadow self, trying to keep your attention in a negative place.

email: sport@bendigoweekly.com.au

Spirit nets NZ Olympian Lisa Wallbutton to add to Bendigo’s frontline THE Bendigo Spirit has signed New Zealand national team player and 2008 Olympian Lisa Wallbutton for the 2011-12 WNBL season. Having completed another standout season for the Albury Wodonga Bandits in the Southeast Australian Basketball League, the 183cm forward joins the Spirit after WNBL stints with Adelaide, Dandenong and Christchurch.

Lisa is a versatile player who (will) make an impact in the team Wallbutton finished the SEABL season as the league’s leading rebounder, pulling down 11.2 boards per game to go along with a team high 15.5 points per contest, earning team MVP honours for the Bandits. Spirit head coach Bernie Harrower said he expects Wallbutton’s recent form in the SEABL to carry over and provide further support for team’s frontline. “Lisa is a versatile player who we’ll expect to make an impact in the team with her rebounding and intensity,” he said.

“With her level of experience, both from playing in Australia and internationally, she’s proven she can compete and we’re excited to bring her into our group.” “She had another great season with Albury this year as the top

rebounder in the competition as well as proving to be a great leader for their young team.” A member of the Tall Ferns since 2005, Wallbutton recently suited up for the team for the Four Nations Tournament in China

and scored 17 points in the team’s upset win over the host nation. The Auckland native is set to suit up against the Jayco Australian Opals in the Oceania Championships as both countries look to qualify for a spot in the 2012

London Olympic Games. The series kicks off September 7 in Melbourne with Wallbutton a chance to compete against fellow Spirit teammate and Opals member Tess Madgen before also playing games in Brisbane and Sydney.

Homes firm continues state hockey backing THE Junior State Hockey Championships will be sponsored by G J Gardner Homes for the second year running. G J Gardner Homes managing director Ross Morley said he was delighted the company was going back to back. “It’s vital to encourage kids to take part in sport from a young age to ensure it stays with them and naturally be-

comes part of their adult lives,” he said. “Hockey is a great sport that’s accessible to kids of all ages. It has relatively low costs to become involved and it’s open to boys and girls.” The championships sees the best 640 junior players in the state battle it out, involving six metropolitan and four regional zones, in Melbourne.

THE much-needed facelift to the historic Bendigo Croquet Clubrooms in Barnard Street is complete. City of Greater Bendigo mayor Rod Fyffe opened the clubrooms this week. Cr Fyffe said the $323,000 restoration and redevelopment was an important heritage project for both council and Heritage Victoria. “Bendigo Croquet Club was founded in 1904. The first clubhouse was the small octagonal building however a meeting room, change room, tool shed and verandah were added to the building in 1931,” he said. “The octagonal centrepiece is over 100 years old and is one of the oldest surviving croquet clubhouses in the state. “However, due to the poor condition of the clubrooms it was decided to demolish the later building additions and rehabilitate the historic octagonal structure.” Cr Fyffe said the council also added new sections to the old building. “In addition we have also constructed a new social room complete with kitchenette, new toilets and change room facilities, storage space and new verandah,” he said. “We have also installed an access ramp, undertaken extensive drainage works, installed new paths

STRIKING AHEAD: City of Greater Bendigo mayor Rod Fyffe with Bendigo Croquet Club treasurer Marlene Beattie. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN and undertaken landscaping at the site. “The work has resulted in clubrooms that are more accessible and usable for everyone.” Cr Fyffe said the project demonstrates how heritage buildings can be successfully redeveloped in

a contemporary way to meet the needs of the present. “Bendigo’s heritage buildings are what sets our city apart from others and its important to undertake these types of projects to protect our heritage assets into the future,” he said.

Battle of the BFL QEO back in the floodlights as local teams clash in elimination final

THE Queen Elizabeth Oval will make its return as a major Saturday night drawcard when traditional rivals Sandhurst and South Bendigo clash in a BFL Elimination Final under lights tomorrow. The Bloods will need to bounce back from a 54 point defeat to the Dragons last Saturday afternoon, although Bloods coach Rick Coburn said with up to five

players returning, his team was well placed to get revenge. “In terms of our defensive structures, we put the cue in the rack last week,” he said. “We’re also hoping to get (Bendigo Bombers player) Steven Stroobants back, plus Brad Wright’s inclusion will be big for us.” Coburn said his team didn’t show all its tricks last week, with several players rested. “We’ve got a few things up our

sleeve for Saturday night,” he said. Dragons coach Tony Graham said there couldn’t be too much to be read into their thumping of The Bloods, as the game was effectively a dead rubber. “We have to keep the momentum going with our season, but we’ll stick with the same plans we’ve had all year,” he said. Graham said minimising the effectiveness of Brady Childs, who was a standout in last week’s match, was paramount while fo-

cal point Michael Leech was another big concern. Leech has kicked the third most amount of goals in the league with 59 majors. In the Qualifying Final at the QEO on Sunday, Eaglehawk will take on Gisborne, with both teams enjoying a solid tune up in the final round of matches: Eaglehawk smashed Kangaroo Flat by 186 points, while Gisborne handed Castlemaine a 120 point drubbing.

Meanwhile BFL chief executive officer Steven Oliver said either of the teams were capable of upsetting Golden Square, who have gone through the season undefeated. “Sandhurst pushed Square to within three points, while Gisborne led early against them in the last quarter, before Square overran them,” he said. “If a team can put together four quarters, they’re every chance of beating Golden Square.”
