MORE JOBS GO

By CHRISTINE MCGINN

A FURTHER 47 jobs will be lost at Bendigo TAFE as it tightens its belt in the wake of State Government funding cuts. The TAFE also announced the closure of its BRIT Beginners Childcare Centre and the cutting of three more courses – bricklaying, cabinet making and mining. About 20 teaching, 12 administration and support, and 15 child-

care positions have been made redundant in the latest cuts. This brings the total to 147 jobs lost since the TAFE’s restructure began in March last year. On top of the cuts, 33 courses overall have been slashed, a library lost and the Kyneton campus closed

model that ensured the TAFE could compete as a premium Victorian educational facility. “2014 is our stabilisation year and the plans we have put in place go a long way to stabilise the viability of the business in 2014. 2015 and beyond is growth,â€? he said. Mr Coyne said changing learning methods forced the TAFE to quickly adapt to the educational landscape. Continued Page 3

GOLDEN Square Pool is making a splash to celebrate its grand reopening. Swimmers and pool-siders are invited to take a free dip on Saturday, November 30 celebrating with a free sausage sizzle and Zooper Dooper for all. Golden Square Community Pool president Ken Hamilton said he was excited to reveal the revived local pool. “The whole journey has been amazing. There have been four committees and about 40 volunteers working to bring the pool back to life,” he said. “We want to thank the whole community for their support by putting on this day.” The Central Victorian Lion Team will perform and bless the pool at 10.15am. Despite the waves of knock-backs, Greater Bendigo councillor Elise Chapman said the community had unified to take up the fight. “They have united as a suburb and worked so hard,” she said. “I believed in them and

they believed in me and we did it. “I am really, really proud of the people.” The pool will open its doors at 10am for a funfilled family day. Mr Hamilton and Cr Chapman will cut the ribbon to celebrate the pool’s fast success. “Everyone in the community is welcome to come and show their support and enjoy what they have managed to do,” she said. “Nothing would make me happier to see the people of Bendigo enjoy the pool.” Council voted to close the pool last year, but a community fundraising campaign has allowed it stay open until a new $30 million indoor venue is funded and built. The pool will also have a dual pricing system with Greater Bendigo council’s season ticketing system and a Golden Square Pool only pass. Golden Square Pool day passes begin at $3 to $10 for a family. Mr Hamilton encourages the community to support their locally-run and now saved, pool.

Outrage stuns detective

THE detective at the centre of claims a presentation given in Bendigo a week ago showing the body of murdered Melbourne woman Jill Meagher was offensive, has revealed he had the support of her family. During the speech at the Bloke’s Biggest Lunch on Friday, Homicide Squad detective Ron Iddles showed a large number of photos of murder victims. One of those was of Ms Meagher, in a shallow grave. Despite no complaints being made to the event’s organisers, during or since, at least one person contacted the Herald Sun with their concerns, causing a media storm, including accusations it was offensive to Ms Meagher’s memory. Detective Sergeant Iddles said

Mr Meagher’s father, George, had told him he had done nothing wrong. “He said: ‘Ron you are doing a fantastic job and do I not object to you using my daughter’s photograph’,” Det Sgt Iddles said.

STRATHFIELDSAYE Primary School students are taking action against the congested and dangerous roads surrounding their school. Twenty students are driving a group to make the Eppalock Road and Tannery Lane intersection accident free. Grade six student Rebekah Morris, 11, said the community’s safety was the group’s top priority. “I am really concerned about the safety of the students, teachers and community of Strathfieldsaye,” she said. “We don’t want any more people to get hurt because we don’t have roundabouts and things we need. “There are quite a lot of crashes.” Teacher Glenn Parkhill said the group, started in term two, gave students a forum to discuss local issues affecting them. “A large part of what we want to do, as a group, is raise the issue publicly. The intersection here on Club Court is atrocious,” he said. “There has been talk of plans but there has been no action. “Drivers really have to take risks to get on the road.” Student and local

community, and in particular, to her husband Tom,” he said “With immediate effect, Victoria Police has banned all further public presentations on operational matters until some appropriate protocols have been developed. “Snr Sgt Ron Iddles has been one of Victoria Police’s most dedicated and hard working detectives for more than 30 years. “Few wearing the uniform have been more committed and loyal in their service of the community. “I am saddened that a speech he delivered in good faith – at a charity fundraiser – will have caused further emotional anguish for the family.” EDITORIAL Page 21 BIGGEST BLOKES LUNCH Pages 10, 11

DRIVING FORCE: Teacher Glenn Parkhill with students Grace Valentine, Rebekah Morris and Cameron Jordan. resident,Cameron Jordan, 12, said he joined the group because he wanted to solve the problem. “This group is a good use of my time and resources to help fix this road,” he said. “There are often queues of 10 cars back along the road about 3.30pm. It is quite dangerous.” The Grade 5 and 6 student action group is writing to Transport Minister Terry Mulder to help them in their plight. “We are trying to organise roundabouts and other things to help with the traffic... There are a lot of cars,” Cameron said. The students will count cars during the afternoon pickup period between 3.15pm to 3.45pm,

next Thursday. Grace Valentine, 11, said it was important to make the road safe for all commuters. “We just want to make it safer for cars and people to cross... it’s so busy,” she said. Greater Bendigo councillor Helen Leach said it was “an extremely dangerous intersection”. “It’s dangerous because of the bend on top of it and the speed limit is 80 kilometres [then 60km during school hours] there,” she said. “It is way past the time it needed to be attended to. Do we really need to wait for a fatality? “We need the co-operation from VicRoads and the minister

to get things happening. It’s a major arterial so council can’t act alone.” Despite lobbying members of parliament, Action for Intersections – Strathfieldsaye organiser Catherine Wilby said there had been no change to the road infrastructure. “We are looking for help to fix our roads, from council, the state government and Vic Roads,” she said. Two cars collided on the notorious Tannery Lane and Eppalock Road on Monday morning with both drivers suffering minor injures. Mr Mulder was contacted for comment on the matter.

“Our learner is changing and so quickly, the models must change. As our business changes, we must change,” he said. “We have to get in front of the change and anticipate the change. The announcements will help us get on top of things.” All other campuses are expected to remain open. Mr Coyne said he had concerns about the vibrancy of the existing sites. “They are not all as vibrant and revitalised as we would like to see though,” he said. Despite housing 50 daily childcare places, Mr Coyne said childcare was “not fundamental to our business”. About 100 families will now be looking for childcare places around the city, with the centre closing on March 31 next year. “Certainly the closure of BRIT Beginners Childcare Centre isn’t founded on a need to use it for something else,” he said. Childcare workers were informed of their redundancies at a staff meeting on Wednesday night, while parents were given a letter yesterday morning. Parents contacted the Bendigo Weekly with concerns about the lack of transparency in the decision-making. “It has been presented to us as a fait accompli,” one parent said. “They could have engaged parents six months ago and talked to us. “I am pretty incensed.” But Mr Coyne said they were working with staff and parents to address their concerns. “We anticipate that this will provide enough time for our parents to make other arrangements for childcare and the needs of their children.“

Easter fair faces return to shorter parade starting at QEO

Route change planned By CHRISTINE McGINN

BENDIGO’S Easter Festival Torchlight Procession and Gala Parade will take a new turn in 2014. The Bendigo Easter Festival Advisory Board is seeking to change the route back to the 1946-47 parade route beginning at the Queen Elizabeth Oval. The proposed route would run down View Street turn left on to Pall Mall and then turn in to Bridge Street. Council has put the proposal out for community consultation, asking residents to give their feedback on the route. BEFAB chairman Rod Fyffe said the proposed route was designed to allow easier and quicker access

for emergency services to the area. “Changing the parade route is to overcome occupational health and safety issues for the participants and onlookers,” he said. “We have been facing some logistical and OH&S issues associated with the old route.

“It would be great to see people, three, four deep, watching the parade. “We have been working hard at the quality of the parade. “This is a great step forward.” Cr Fyffe said the new route also allowed more people to visit. “There will be more car parking for people coming to watch the parade. Only carparks from Myers Street in will be closed,” he said. “We are excited about this proposed change.” Concerned residents should contact Lyn Brown on 5434 6000 by December 6.

Changing the ... route is to overcome occupational health and safety issues “There will also be fewer road closures allowing people to move around easier.” Cr Fyffe said the new route would be “spectacular” and urged the community to embrace the necessary change.

Motel as an art form

“We encourage residents to come and we hope it develops its

own dynamic and expectations in the new location,” he said.

Coverage of this story is available at www.bendigoweekly.com.au

ROAR DEAL: Though sure not to please all, the change is for safety reasons.

BLOCK BOOKING: Hickory’s business development manager Damien Crough, Art Series creator, Asian Pacific Group chief executive Will Deague and mayor Barry Lyons.

BENDIGO’S newest motel was launched this week, and it will be an Australian-first. The 128-room, $20 million modular-designed Bendigo Studios hotel will be built on the Bendigo hospital site, on the corner of Lucan and Bayne Streets in May 2014. It will be part of the Art Series Group. Ceator and Asian Pacific Group chief executive officer Will Deague said the project was an exciting addition to their existing art-inspired hotels. “Bendigo has emerged as the regional centre for arts and culture in Victoria making it the perfect place to launch our studio-inspired hotel concept,” he said. “This is the first of a new product we will be rolling out regionally.” The four-star Bendigo Studio will be named after a renowned local artist, set to be announced in February 2014. Original artwork and sculptures will be displayed, and on sale, throughout the rooms, communal spaces and hotel grounds. There will also be art classes and environmentally-friendly transport available. Greater Bendigo mayor Barry Lyons said it was a “quality development”. “This adds another dimension to Bendigo’s cultural fabric and shows an outstanding commitment to our area.” Council City Futures director Stan Liacos said the hotel would encourage visitors to explore Bendigo’s vibrant arts precinct. “The Bendigo Studio will help grow our visitor length of stay periods by extending their artbased experience,” he said. “To have such a large number of high quality hotel apartments is a great delivery for our economy.” Art Series Hotel Group have also built awardwinning hotels in Melbourne. The Hickory-Group constructed motel will employ and train local workers while serving locally sourced produce.

Nightfall dread and dead eyes

AS Postnatal Depression Awareness Week comes to a close, ERIN DELAHUNTY describes one local woman’s life and death battle with PND – in the hopes of raising awareness of this still-taboo topic. IT was a beautiful Saturday morning in June. The sun was streaming through the sash window of the picture-perfect cottage in the idyllic suburban street. And it was quiet, save for the occasional lawn mower in the distance and a strange sound from inside the house; a whimpering. It was coming from 29-yearold Veronica* who lay twisted and curled on the floor in the corner of the kitchen, beneath the window. Her pathetic, exhausted weeping was the crying of someone all out of tears. At the end. The debris of last night’s dinner, shrivelled pieces of corn and shards of broken, uncooked pasta stuck to her tear-stained cheeks as she pushed her face hard into the floorboards, wanting to disappear into them. In her eerily untrembling, outstretched right hand she held the biggest knife from the nearby knife block. The urgent, hateful voice in her head told her again and again how useless she was: “You can’t even do this right.“ This is what severe, undiagnosed postnatal depression looks like. “I didn’t know that at the time. I just thought I was going insane,” Veronica said. PND affects about 16 per cent of new mothers in Australia – but remains a great unspoken, widely seen as simply “not coping”. Like many before her, Veronica not only hid her symptoms – she simply didn’t know what they were. Postnatal Depression Awareness Week, which is run by the Post and Ante Natal Depression Association, is about changing all that. A little over a month before her “rock-bottom moment” in the kitchen, Veronica and her husband of three years had welcomed their first child, a boy, after a stress-free pregnancy, difficult labour and eventual emergency Caesarean. Although Veronica had a history of mild depression, the risk of PND never came up in pre-natal care.

“I was like every other first-time mother I guess, I was going to have the perfect baby with my perfect husband and have the perfect life. PND just never came up,” she said. Having carved out a successful career in a demanding, deadlinedriven profession, before falling pregnant after deciding to have children, Veronica assumed she would cope. “I wasn’t one of those women who thought it would be easy and it would be my calling, but I certainly wasn’t prepared for the utterly lifechanging nature of becoming a mother,” she said. But this is not unusual. “In the

It’s not your fault and it’s not a sign of weakness days after the birth of my baby, I was an ideal new mother, doting on this gorgeous bundle and breastfeeding with ease. It was when we got home things starting slipping,” she said. While most sleep-deprived new mothers will fall asleep at the drop of a hat, Veronica found herself unable to sleep in the rare moments when her son did. She became increasingly obsessed with his routine, despite the continual support of her husband and immediate family, who visited frequently. “She cried continually and without reason. “I just became fixated on getting it ‘right’ and the bad job I perceived I was doing,” she said. “My son was thriving and now, on reflection, he was a pretty great sleeper from early on. I wasn’t tired, it wasn’t the baby blues everyone talks about, which comes a few days after the birth.

“This felt like something different, but I had no idea what. I didn’t know what being a new mum felt like.” The dread of nightfall was the worst. “From about 3pm every day, I could ‘feel’ it getting darker outside and I knew the tough bit, of feeding, bathing and settling the baby, was coming and I would become increasingly anxious, to the point of not being able to function,” she said. “After a while that feeling of the sun setting and it progressively getting darker outside, was how I felt all the time. “I couldn’t see things in the distance. When I drove my car, no matter the time, I always put my lights on, because it felt dark. It was dark; in my mind.” Looking back at photos of the time, Veronica can pick the stage of her condition by her “dead eyes” in the photos. “I wasn’t there.” Veronica confided in her husband, who of course knew she wasn’t coping. He urged her to see someone. “I saw a GP, I saw a maternal and child nurse. I told them how desperate I felt, about the darkness. I was told it was normal. ‘You’ll be fine’, they said. So I gave up asking.” Several weeks passed and Veronica’s condition worsened. Only her husband’s constant Googling prompted her to visit a doctor she knew, who suspected immediately she had PND, prescribed anti-depressants and booked another appointment. But it was too late. “That Saturday, my husband had taken the baby for a big walk in the pram, down the street, to give me a break,” she said. “I’d been thinking about suicide for several days and it had given me a great sense of calm, which is utterly terrifying to think about now.” When she heard the front door open, Veronica stopped and rushed to her husband, letting it all out. He picked up the phone, called

Crime on the rise

By CHRISTINE McGINN

BENDIGO has seen a 21.5 per cent jump in the number of raw criminal offences for the year to October. Victoria Police figures released this week showed Bendigo’s rates of crime had increased across the board. Drug offences rose more than 38 per cent and assaults have risen 15.2 per cent. Crimes against the property increased 14.8 per cent while crimes against the person climbed 10.6 per cent. Bendigo police Inspector Paul Huggett said the statistics reflected local police’s front-line approach to tackling crimes. “The detection of

drug offences has risen because Greater Bendigo police members are pursuing illicit drug activity in the community. We know the harm drug use causes and we do not want further lives lost or destroyed by their use,” he said.

the community.” But Member for Bendigo East Maree Edwards said crime rates had jumped significantly due to a lack of funding. “(Premier) Denis Napthine and his Liberal National Government are abandoning regional

We know the harm drug use causes and we do not want further lives lost “Other crimes such as public order and behaviour-type offences have risen. “We see this as a result of police proactively patrolling hot spots and identifying recidivist offenders to deter unlawful behaviour, making our community and its amenities enjoyable for all of

Victoria and we have seen three consecutive years of rises in crime under this government,” she said. “Our local police do a fantastic job but are under resourced. The latest statistics are a result of cuts to the Victoria Police budget of $100 million, slashing 400 staff and

forcing police officers to babysit prisoners instead of being on the frontline tackling crime. “Communities in Bendigo and our region deserve better.” Burglary decreased about 31 per cent, with robbery following suit, down 23.3 per cent. Inspector Huggett said opportunistic crimes had decreased as people became more aware and conscious of their belongings. “The best way to reduce your chances of being a victim of such crimes is to make it difficult for thieves to steal from you,” he said. “This can be done by simply locking your home or car when going out and not leaving valuables in plain sight.”

MAN FRIDAY: Mayor Barry Lyons launched the new pontoon at Crusoe Reservoir. Photo: GARRY PATERSON

New pontoon doubles the fun THERE is a new pontoon at Crusoe Reservoir and it was launched in time to beat the summer heat. The new $8000 swimming rest has been dubbed Robinson Crusoe Island and is the latest attraction for the area. The new pontoon has been installed 70 metres from the shoreline by the Greater Bendigo coun-

cil with support from the Friends of Crusoe and No 7 Park. The aluminium pontoon features two ladders and a timber deck and measures 7.5 metres by 2.5 metres, about the size of a single carport. “It’s going to really add to the attractions already available at Crusoe and will provide loads of

swimming and diving fun for visitors,” mayor Barry Lyons said. He said it is the second pontoon to be installed at Crusoe with the first closer to shoreline which will allow swimmers to swim between the two. “The new pontoon is another great asset for the area. We are so fortunate to have this wonderful

natural area on our doorstep.” Friends of Crusoe Reservoir and No 7 Park secretary Hans Meinig said the group was thrilled with the new pontoon. “It will be a terrific asset to the parks many recreational attractions and will get a lot of use by the young people who visit the area,” he said

Biggest lunch raises $70,000

SPELLBOUND: The audience heard of Ron Iddles’ 35 years with Victoria Police.

EVER

T S E G G BI

2013 LUNCH

THIS year’s Blokes Biggest Ever lunch was a huge success with more than 400 blokes doing their bit for charity. Event organiser Keith Sutherland said that he had never seen an audience so spellbound, as Homicide Squad detective Ron Iddles told story after story of his 35 years with Victoria Police. The other important aspect of the day was the fundraising with an auction and raffle which raised about $42,000. “The sad fact is that in the Greater Bendigo area each week two men are diagnosed and each month one man dies from prostate cancer which is just to many as it really has a very big impact on so many families,� Mr Sutherland said. “In total we believe that we raised almost $70,000. In the four years of running this event we have raised $275,000, with the bulk of funds going to the Prostate Foundation of Australia and some funds going to the local prostate support group.� Mr Sutherland thanked main sponsors Bendigo Toyota, Peak Sports and Fitness, Commonwealth Bank and media partners Bendigo Weekly and Win TV. Silver Sponsors were CVP Maintenance Services, GJGardner homes, Telstra Business Centre, Villawood Properties and Greater

Bendigo council. Mr Sutherland also made special mention to long-term supporters Hazeledenes Chicken, the Lions Club and Power AV who supplied a big screen. “The event could not happen without the large numbers of volunteers who give their time freely including members of the Bendigo Lions Club who do the barbecue each year,� Mr Sutherland said.

Residents rekindle park row

By CHRISTINE McGINN

RESIDENTS are aiming to revitalise the stalled $1.3 million Wolstencroft Park masterplan which has been idle for almost six years. The Wolstencroft Area Action Group is speaking out again, calling council to build a childfriendly open space. WAAG spokesman Ian McBurney said closing Havlin Street East was the first step to ensuring children’s safety at or around the park. “Let’s close the road first, that would be brilliant‌ and not have local traffic streaming down the road. There is no need for traffic going down that street,â€? he said. Havlin Street East is expected

to undergo a trial road closure next year, after Greater Bendigo council conducts community consultation. Under stage three of the 2008 masterplan, the road directly alongside the park and creek, would be closed to motorists. But councillor Helen Leach said they opposed any road closure, especially on Havlin Street East. “It is a thoroughfare from Somerville to Myers streets and people are not happy about a trial or permanent closure,� they said. “There are other ways such as traffic-calming measures such as speed humps. “We should continue to leave the road open as it is and have the

park contained as it is.� About 210 vehicles travel on Havlin Street East each day, according to a council conducted traffic count. Presentation and Assets director Darren Fuzzard said council

at $160,000 in 2008, before any works on the site can be approved. Mr McBurney said council hesitated to enact the masterplan in 2010, raising concerns about the soil quality. “We have waited and there has

out by January,� he said. “We would then put the brief to council for the mid-year agenda and see if they approve it.� Residents will soon receive a notice asking them whether they would want a trial road closure. The closure would take place about March 2014, pending council approval. Residents are encouraged to attend a council-hosted community civil infrastructure forum on December 10 to understand the prioritisation of works. Unsatisfied with the response, WAAG will push their cause with a third set of councillors to revive the plan. “We want to start kicking up a fuss again,� Mr McBurney said.

Let’s close the road first, that would be brilliant‌ and not have local traffic streaming down the road had not made significant process on the former landfill. “To date, we haven’t been able to get the funding. We have an obligation to rehabilitate and investigate the site first,â€? he said. Council is required to conduct an assessment of the land, costed

been no action,� he said. “This may be a delay tactic or perhaps, it is not a high priority.� Mr Fuzzard said council was working on a consultant brief to find out the new cost and work required on the site. “The brief will certainly come

Purple power adds colour to cancer relay STRATH Village Shopping Centre is doing its bit in helping painting the town purple, in the lead up to the official launch for the 2014 Bendigo Relay for Life tomorrow. “It’s great the centre and many of the traders have really got into the spirit of his year’s launch,� Bendigo Relay for Life chairman Rob Kean said. The Bendigo Relay for Life has raised more than $2.65 million since 1998 for local cancer services and education programs, which includes the $165,000 raised at this

year’s relay by more than 1500 participants. “This Saturday, from 10am, is an ideal time to meet committee members,� Mr Kean said. “They will be on hand to help you organise a team for Bendigo’s 15th relay which is again being held at the La Trobe University Athletics Complex in Flora Hill on April 4 and 5.� Alternatively, visit www.relayforlife.org.au or phone 1300 656 585 to become part of one of Bendigo’s most successful fundraising events.

The national day and festivities are designed to start a conversation while

dispelling myths about disabilities. Bendigo Volunteer Resource Centre, Sportz Rulz, Greater Bendigo council, Bendigo Bank Community Enterprise Foundation, Interchange Loddon Mallee and Radius Disability Services will participate on the day. The organisations will set up stalls to encourage the community to learn about their services and gain knowledge about the conditions. Guest speaker and Greater Bendigo councillor Rod Campbell will share

his personal experience as a leading community member and the challenges he faces as a person with a disability. The crowd will be entertained as Choice Voices Choir, Willie Bonkers and Rudely Interrupted will belt out tunes to celebrate the achievements of people living with a disability. Face painting, Scope’s Balloon Football and other activities will also run throughout the festivities. The celebrations will kick off in Hargreaves Mall on December 3 from 11am to 2pm.

DOGS will be on the move in big numbers this weekend as they show their skills and abilities to an audience at the Mia Mia Muster. The Bendigo Obedience Dog Club has combined with the Yard, Utility and Farm Dog Association to present a weekend of dog events and demonstrations. The YUFDA is conducting farm dog trials and separate yard dog trials over the weekend, providing opportunity to see these dogs working sheep in the paddocks and yards. BODC activities will include agility, flyball, scent work – including the switcheroo “shell game� to try to trick the dogs. There will be obedience and trick demonstrations, as well as a game of Tic Tac Toe

scholarship returns THE Eaglehawk Dahlia and Arts Festival Youth Scholarship is back. The scholarship is up to the value of $1000.

Informal sessions on canine training will also be available. All activities are free of charge. Vice President of the BODC Kerry Needs said the event is an opportunity to blur the lines between the otherwise very separate working farm dogs and companion dogs. “The BODC is proud to

be part of this event, which caps off a very busy and highly successful 50th anniversary year for the club,� she said. “It’s a wonderful collaboration that is planned to become an annual event.� Entry per day will be $5 for adults with free entry for children. The muster will be on Saturday, November 30 and Sunday, December 1 at the Mia Mia Recreation Reserve, Heathcote - Redesdale Road, Mia Mia.

THE Central Victorian community is sending a clear message to the Federal Coalition Government – we want the National Broadcast Network. Several community members presented a petition to Member for Bendigo Lisa Chesters with signatures from all over central Victoria. Ms Chesters said local families and businesses deserve access to super-fast fibre broadband. “There has been silence from the Government on this issue and no consultation with the people it will affect.�

A NEW campaign aims to keep dogs who need their space at arms length. The Yellowdog yellow ribbon is a visual clue to stay clear from a dog. The campaign is about spreading the word that not all dogs are approachable, not because of aggression but simply for other reasons such as health issues, they are in training, newly adopted, scared or reactive around strangers. Yellowdog is a not for profit organisation and is launching a community awareness campaign in Bendigo this coming weekend. By using a yellow ribbon, bandana, lead sleeve or vest on the dog, it will help others identify and understand that this dog requires more space while it is being trained or being rehabilitated. Passionate Vetcare veterinary nurse Naomi Hodgens said she’s using the system herself. “We are supplying some of the material for the campaign,�she said. “It’s a fantastic idea, it sends out a good message.� Local organiser Gary Hill said he was really keen to push home the message of the Yellowdog campaign. “I would like some help making the yellow items, just stitching work mostly,� he said.

Aaron adds a win

HELP: A bridge program gives students better access to La Trobe University.

Bridge into university BENDIGO Senior Secondary College students are celebrating the end of exams but also, their acceptance to La Trobe University. BSSC year 12 students participated in La Trobe Univerity’s Uni Bridges program. Students who successfully completed the pilot program have the opportunity to study at La Trobe University next year. Students will gain a place in La Trobe’s Science and Health Science courses without the need for their Australian Tertiary Admission Rank. BSSC was one of three schools to participate in the two year Uni Bridges program. La Trobe University national recruitment director Janne Gorman said the program broke down barriers that prevented students from entering university. “Uni Bridges provides a completely new way of making the University accessible to students

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, November 29, 2013

who might not otherwise have considered it, or had the opportunity,” she said. Uni Bridges involves themebased learning around the focus area of preventing and curing disease, and links subjects across disciplines, including English, mathematics and science. La Trobe University’s deputy vice chancellor Jane Long said the program gave students equal opportunities to attend university. “Uni Bridges is a really important step towards making this a reality,” she said. The Commonwealth Government Higher Education Pathways and Participation Program will fund the program’s expansion in 2014. Bendigo South East College, Crusoe and Eaglehawk Secondary Colleges and Weeroona College will participate in next year’s program.

BENDIGO student Aaron Day was part of a group of three La Trobe students who won the prestigious AMP University Challenge. The challenge examines students’ financial planning abilities. This is the third year in a row La Trobe Business School students have taken out the top award with the added excitement this year of also taking out second, third and fourth place of the five places on offer. “This is a significant achievement for not only the students but the university,” La Trobe School of Business, Department of Finance senior lecturer Marc Olynyk said. AMP Financial Services introduced the AMP University Challenge in 2011 and the annual competition is open to all Australian university students. It requires students to prepare a discussion paper in response to a client scenario put together by AMP. “We were given a client scenario of a young couple who wanted to buy a house, go on a holiday and save for their young daughter’s education,” Bachelor of Laws/Bachelor of Business student, Aaron Day said. “Their saving habits were hopeless, but we had to devise a plan to make it all happen.” Aaron and his team went on to win the competition with their work on a technical quiz and their presentation to a panel of industry judges. The student team won $5000, as well as a range of subscriptions to financial industry magazines.

STUDENT Andrew Stasiliunas has been offered a place at the world’s leading institute of contemporary music, Berklee College, in Massachusetts, USA. Andrew, a musician at Bendigo Senior Secondary College, plays electric guitar. He will start his studies at Berklee in May next year and said he is still in disbelief at the offer of a place at the prestigious college. “I had to fly to Sydney in May to audition before Berklee staff,” Andrew said. “This involved playing a prepared piece as well as demonstrating music knowledge and improvisation. “Then they contacted me to say I had made it. It’s a dream come true, and it really is taking a while to sink in.” For the past two years, Andrew has travelled from Woodend to Bendigo every day to access music subjects at BSSC. His VCE program includes Music Performance, Music Investigation, Music Style and Composition and VET Music Industry Technology and he studied the music of Berklee graduates Garstka and Vai as part of his Music Investigation units. BSSC principal, Dale Pearce said news of the Berklee College offer was testament to Andrew’s talent and a wonderful endorsement of the quality of the college’s music curriculum. “This is fantastic news for Andrew and his family and we’re delighted to have played a part in supporting Andrew to achieve his dream,” Mr Pearce said. Attracting diverse and talented students who are passionate about careers in music, Berklee’s alumni have collectively won more than 250 Grammys and Latin Grammys

Long Gully Gold? The gentrification of Long Gully? Sounds great. Now let’s try something a little simpler first, such as turning lead into gold... Eric Lakey, Bendigo

Only the lonely IN last week’s Weekly Pauline Gordon fails to address the key issue regarding the lunch for disadvantaged residents and that is they feel lonely on Christmas Day. Most of us have family and friends to share with on December 25. Pity Greater Bendigo council didn’t address this issue earlier. I hope Lifeline and Beyond Blue are working Christmas Day. V. Burns, Longlea

Political point KeN Price’s mistitled letter (Climate change not political, Bendigo Weekly, Nov 22) is purely political. In a weak attempt to smear Tony Abbott, Ken asserts: “The fire seasons are becoming more intense and destructive due to rising temperatures.” But, as is usual in his letters, he cannot provide any evidence to back his specious claims. Though if recent NSW bushfires are the

tweets

cause of his anxiety, he can rest easy because the nation’s most respected fire experts tell us it’s not climate change, but high fuel loads created by the lack of regular burning demanded by The Greens which assisted in their ignition. Because of the many deaths at sea and the 50,000 arrivals on illegal boats caused by Labor and The Greens clueless dismantling of howard’s border protection policies; “Stop the boats” is a political win for Abbott, the Coalition, Australia and ultimately Indonesia which is a victim of the Left’s failings too. The boats are stopping Ken, despite the best efforts of Labor, the Greens and their mendacious pals at Fairfax, their ABC and The Guardian. Peter Wiseman, Mandurang

Asbestos awareness NoveMBer is Asbestos Awareness Month – a time to remember that this deadly product is still present in our communities – in our homes, our neighbourhoods and our workplaces. exposure can occur while undertaking home renovations or cleaning up around a property. one asbestos fibre may be

enough to cause disease many years later. I would urge anyone who suspects asbestos is present, to be extremely careful. Do not handle asbestos yourself and always contact a licensed expert to remove it. Margaret Kent, Slater & Gordon Lawyers

Rail services vital to our economy IF the Coalition Government can reopen the echuca to Toolamba rail line, what is preventing them from reopening the Castlemaine to Maryborough rail line and creating the regional rail Link from Geelong via Ballarat, Maryborough and Castlemaine to Bendigo? The reopening of the Castlemaine to Maryborough and the establishment of the Geelong to Bendigo lines will create a boon to jobs in victoria and create a mobile work force and enable the regional centres to become economic power houses. The Melbourne centric Premier and Transport Minister are abrogating their electoral responsibility and accountability to provide regional victorians with a freight and rail service that is equal to what Melbourne receives. Scott Ramsay, Rail Revival Alliance

this bendigo life Hard work By Keith Sutherland

BeNDIGo as a community never ceases to amaze me. The generosity of spirit in giving and caring is impressive. Far too often we hear and read of some negative things that happen but the good far outweighs the bad. over the past two months I have read with interest in the Bendigo Weekly the huge number of fundraising events, and on November 8, Peter Kennedy highlighted the same under the heading of Working for the People where he mentioned just a few events. The following events highlight my point. Bendigo golf day with tradies/plumbers for Camp Quality, eaglehawk rotary Club for orphan students, huge fundraiser for Quentin Blackmore, Bendigo Powercor bike ride organised by eddie Barkla for Kalianna Special School, Beck Kelly autism advocate men’s business workshop, Mayoral Glass Slipper Ball for youth issues and octobra collecting bras for third world countries. There was also the local group formed to help super ty-

phoon haiyan and of course last Friday’s very successful Blokes Biggest ever Lunch for prostate cancer. The ones that I have mentioned probably are just some of the many that happen around our district and have been highlighted in our local community newspaper the Bendigo Weekly. While this is all happening, many other events are taking place such as The Bendigo Blues and roots Festival, victorian Seniors Festival, Bendigo Sustainability Group’s family day, highlighting Climate Change, Bendigo’s 38th Swap Meet, victorian Country Press Association conference, and of course the Bendigo Cup. When you consider that a community could not operate without volunteers assisting in schools, sporting events, festivals and most other things, it shows that in Bendigo we have just so many wonderful people giving their time freely to make this a better place to live. I have been lucky enough to have had the opportunity to be involved in just a few of these wonderful fundraising events and I am aware of the amount of money raised. If you take into account the many other fundraisers there must have been many thou-

sands raised for all these wonderful causes. Bendigo residents are digging deep again to help the family of Matt Scarff who was injured in an incident in Bali recently. Bendigo really is the place to live not just for its arts, sporting, education, health services and many other attributes but it also has an assured future with our fantastic new hospital now in the early construction phase. We are also lucky that we have a council that supports many of these events and in my opinion we are the events capital of victoria and the regional capital of Australia. I know the Greater Bendigo council has a busy calendar coming up in 2014 and I am excited about the second Scots Day out happening on February 8. Something I would love to see happen is that the council promote their events calendar so we don’t have a doubling up of similar events and happenings. I am proud to live, work and be involved in this community that has so much to offer, and with so much building activity taking place there is a huge spin off to other businesses. With all this happening Bendigo has an assured future . I look forward to seeing the many excellent projects come to fruition.

editorial with Peter Kennedy

Copping the row I FIRST met Detective Senior Sergeant Ron Iddles on the footpath outside the Long Gully home of Vicky Jacobs, back in June 1999. Less than 24 hours earlier, Ms Jacobs had been executed as she slept next to her young son. It remains one of the most shocking crimes to have occurred in this city. Ron immediately struck me as a man who does not do too much on a whim. He is organised, detail oriented, methodical, dedicated, strategic. As part of my reportage, I was privileged to learn a lot about what the Homicide Squad and men like Ron Iddles do behind

the scenes to help the families of victims. Very little of this kind of work is ever reported, but that probably wouldn’t worry Ron too much. His reward in life is solving crime, bringing closure and justice. So when I heard Ron was coming to Bendigo to speak at the Blokes Biggest Lunch, I knew what to expect, and I knew the impact such a presentation would have on those in the room. Ron spoke a lot about the need for society to connect, to talk to one another, to look out for one another. He attributes a breakdown in communication between people as a major factor in much of the work

opinion with Dale Pearce

he is left to do. He told the 400 men in the room how he still visits at least one career criminal in prison, because he is a human being. Ron’s presentation was one of the most powerful and remarkable I have experienced. The very last image to be projected onto the big screen as part of what Ron talked about was of Jill Meagher’s body. Rightly or wrongly, it’s caused more uproar and generated more headlines in 24 hours (six days after the event) than any person donning a White Ribbon for a day could ever hope to achieve.

But the message remains the same. Violence in any form is not acceptable and should not be tolerated. I am sure every single person who witnessed Ron’s presentation got the message loud and clear. Was it confronting? Yes. Was it shocking? Yes Was it violent? Yes. Was it real? Sadly, yes. As a career cop who has investigated and solved some of this state’s most gruesome and heinous crimes, the people of Victoria owe Ron Iddles a huge debt. After listening to, and watching Ron’s presentation last Friday, I am even more certain of this than I was before.

Principal, Bendigo Senior Secondary College

Plan to change funding flawed Northern Territory. The Gillard/Rudd government set aside funding for the signed up states, each of which committed to substantial growth in their own education budgets. Despite initial criticism of the Gonski reforms, the then-Abbott Opposition sought to neutralise Gonski as an election issue as states got on board and popular support for the reforms emerged.

their final days. Pyne is right on the funding matter. But the reason the funding is not there is that provisional funding was allocated for all states and only withdrawn when some didn’t sign up. This was clear when he made a commitment to honour the Gonski package. Beyond this, Pyne has several issues. He will have great difficulty unpicking the state deals.

All schools deserve adequate funding to meet the needs of their students Tony Abbott and Christopher Pyne claimed they were on a ‘unity ticket’ with the ALP, supported the model and no school would lose any money if the LNP was elected. How quickly things can change. Less than 100 days into government, Pyne is now seeking to undo the deals done with states, recast the school funding model and, despite an abundance of contrary evidence, says he never supported the model. He claims there is not sufficient funding available because Labor reduced it in

All jurisdictions expect the agreements to be honoured. Victoria has promised it will work with the Commonwealth to ensure the agreed six-year funding package is delivered. Then there is the matter of trust. Having hounded the former government over a broken promise on the carbon tax, Prime Minister Tony Abbott should know what to expect and what the reaction is likely to be. This will hound the government all the way to the next election. Pyne claims there is no

equity issue in Australian education. He needs to get out more. The huge disparity in facilities, staffing and resources in Australian schools is overwhelmingly skewed in favour of those who can charge fees and set their own enrolment policies. This is not an argument over funding for sectors; all schools deserve adequate funding to meet the needs of their students. But Australia’s international education rankings and our national productivity will continue to slide until we address the imbalance in educational outcomes which are the inevitable outcome of recent education policy and funding. Pyne’s intention to return to Howard Government’s SES funding model would be comical if the repercussions weren’t so serious. It was deeply flawed, as the Howard Government’s own review found, and canned by the Gonski panel. Today Christopher Pyne will front his first meeting of state education ministers. State interests generally trump political alliances and I expect he’s in for a torrid time.

IN the lead up to this year’s federal election the then-Labor Government released its long awaited response to the Gonski report, which examined education outcomes and funding in Australia. The expert panel headed by David Gonski received 700 submissions, visited schools and consulted with 71 education groups across the country. They found many schools did not have the resources needed. The panel’s strongest recommendation was that schools be funded on the basis of student need. Students in all schools would receive a base funding level to which would be added loadings for disadvantage. Labor’s plan was for increased funding to be phased in over six years with most funding to flow in 2018-19. States, territories and education sectors insisted that no school lose funding and raised concern over commonwealth control of schools. Eventually deals were signed with all jurisdictions apart from Western Australia, Queensland and the

weekly words with Steve Kendall

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, November 29, 2013

www.bendigoweekly.com.au

Clarke over the mark Steve is stumped by over the top sledging from a cricket hero at the Ashes

L

AST week in this very spot I banged on about multicoloured ribbons as raising awareness for charities and the like. The white ribbon on its own is a fair reminder we should not allow genderbased, or in fact any, violence. The fact it’s supposed to be worn alongside an oath that you will not hit someone is a bit insulting, I would not dream of hitting anyone. There are many a things I would not do because it’s wrong, not because I’ve signed an oath. Raise awareness of the plight by all means, but I don’t need to be bullied into it. But perhaps there is a new need for the message to get out there. Many a schoolboy dreams of playing cricket for his national team, I suppose a few even dream of being captain. On the outside Michael Clarke has it all. He wears the baggy green and can play cricket too.

He proved that by his team’s mammoth dismissal of England in the first Ashes test in Brisbane. But a stump microphone picked up his sledging to tail-ender England batsman James Anderson “Get ready for a f***ing broken arm” perhaps is one step too far, whatever went on before. Players from both teams have brushed the comments aside as part of the game, and I guess they are in the best position to have that opinion. But they must remember youngsters are looking up to them, are learning from these top ambassadors of our country. If the Aussie captain can threaten to bash a Pom with

a ball, surely it’s okay in the school yard? Not just a gentle nudge mind you, a broken arm. If Michael Clarke said that in practically any other job in the country he’d be sacked. How would you feel if someone said it to you? While these people are holding positions of respect it’s time for them to throttle back on making violent threats part of a sport. Maybe it’s too late to remove the microphones from the action spots on the pitch, but maybe we don’t need to know what makes the players tick. I have certainly lost some respect for a man who can play cricket and does not need to resort to violent threats to

make his point and win. The game was pretty much in the bag anyway, no need to try and put off the player. So, let’s take this one step further. If it’s okay in sport, and children hero worship the sportsmen, what happens when the children grow up. Do they think it’s okay to threaten someone because the captain of the Australian cricket team says it’s part of the game? Do they transfer that aggression into the real world? Do they end up breaking their partner’s arm in a row because it’s what heroes do? We’ll never know, but let’s make violence and threats a no-no, on and off the pitch. twitter: @stevekendall1

dear dotty... Dear Dotty, I have a problem with packaging. I don’t seem to be able to open things up anymore. It started with milk cartons, I always seem to open the wrong side and by the time I work out the right way I spill milk every time I make a cup of tea. Next it was soap. Bars of soap that are wrapped in cellophane and then paper; by the time I work my way through to the actual soap, the water in the shower has gone cold. And while I’m in the shower why don’t manufacturers write the words “Shampoo” and “Conditioner” in very LARGE letters because I can never read the words without my glasses on. What else? Many products such as batteries are encased by hard plastic which seems to be soldered onto a hard cardboard surface, I always have to use a chainsaw in these cases. Cling wrap is a problem and I always cut myself on the metal serration. Then there’s laundry soap, by the time I’ve pushed open the insert on the side, I’ve made the hole too big and spilt powder everywhere. And of course there’s the perennial problem of getting the lids off jars. It may seem trivial but my packaging problem is getting me down. Carol, Kangaroo Flat Dear Carol, I understand your problem entirely. I can only conclude that manufacturers

are of the opinion that we will appreciate their crap, expensive product if we’ve had to work to get it open. My solution these days is to simply keep a sharp, pointy knife handy and attack everything with Norman Batestype frenzy. Dear Dotty, I have very sensitive skin, prone to melanomas, and have been told to keep it covered. I was walking in the mall the other day when I practically shrivelled up from the harsh glare of the sun which was bouncing off the grey/white stone surface. Whose idea was that? Belinda Bendigo Dear Belinda, I have no idea but I remember when the mall consisted of shady walkways, now it’s like going for a trek in the Sahara. Don’t forget your waterbag and tent next time.

AROL Penglis, a third year graduate student stands proudly by her work at the Graduate Exhibition of La Trobe University third year students held last week. The exhibition presents the students’ finest images and objects. They have been created, designed, printed, drawn, thrown, ‘captured’, or built through illustrations, installations, painting, printmaking, drawing, video, photography and ce-

ramics and many hybrids between. The graduate exhibition is always a festive night and one of the major highlights on the La Trobe Arts Institute’s calendar both in the Bendigo and Mildura campuses. Friends, family and the art-minded public join in a celebration of the students’ work. Undergraduate co-ordinator at La Trobe Arts Institute, Anthony Conway, said this year’s exhibition showcases the new edge of contemporary

design and visual arts practice. “This responds to the new contemporary focus on the viewer by recasting the interaction between the artwork and the viewer. Audience engagement through participation is a key to unlocking some of the works presented in this year’s show.� The exhibition is open until December 6 at the Phyllis Palmer Gallery, Gate 8, off Sharon Street, La Trobe University. - Dianne Dempsey

biggest winner Life after Bendigo’s Biggest Winner I

T is coming to the end of the Bendigo’s Biggest Winner 2013 and you have all put in an enormous effort. Whether the scales show big or small changes, it is about feeling healthier and having a more positive outlook on life. So, what happens after the Biggest Winner? It can be really difficult to stay motivated. Here are some suggestions. Set goals: Set goals that are achievable and have your long term goal as a vision or picture as to what you want to aim for. Break it down into smaller steps and celebrate your achievements along the way, because this helps you to stay motivated. Say a positive affirmation every morning to get you feeling positive and happy. “I choose to be Healthy, Happy and full of Love� (Rozine). Repeat it several times so that you believe it and start living it.

NNIE and Bern are channelling the wit and romance of 1960s Britain. That’s a big call for the Melbourne-based duo, but they seem to be able to pull it off. Annie is Ann-Maree McKee who placed an ad in Beat magazine 12 years ago. Enter Bern, the guitarist, and through a variety of guises and bands, Annie and Bern remain. “We clicked musically,� Annie said. “We’ve had all of our rows now about music, we know where we stand.� As for the 1960s thing, Annie likes the elegance of the era. “There is a real sense of style and glamour. There is adventure about it, perhaps an innocence, but it’s dynamic.� Annie said she was hooked with 1990s Britpop, and saw the roots back to the 1960s. “The core is the same, there is a lushness.� When family events brought Annie to Inglewood during the week, she saw a

AFTER a break of three years the Bendigo Symphony Orchestra is bringing another performance to the stage of the Capital Theatre. American Visions is bookended by works that very nearly define what we think of as American classical music: Aaron Copland’s music for the 1944 Ballet, Appalachian Spring and Antonín Dvoråk’s 9th Symphony. Dvoråk’s New World Symphony was composed when he was living in America in 1893. In it Dvorak created a work that he felt defined the America he found in the 1890s, influenced by Native America, African American and even Irish music. The concert is on Sunday, December 1 at 2.30pm. Tickets are now available for sale from the Capital Box office – phone 5434 6100 or go online www.thecapital.com.au Tickets are: $20 adults (including concession), $10 secondary students, with

Local food industry insider with Marika McMahon

Time to grab a gift I

T’S beginning to look a lot like Christmas and you’re probably making 100 lists and checking them twice. When doing that don’t forget local foods are a wonderful option for gifts. This week Food Fossickers points you in the direction of some great and interesting food pressies, all sourced locally. Christmas wouldn’t be the same without loads of chocolate.This year instead of stocking up at the supermarket treat yourself and your guests to the locallymade goodness at Indulge Chocolates (shop 26 Fountain Court, www.indulgechocolates.com.au). Bendigo Wholefoods not only have beautiful Christmas Hampers full of foodie goodness with lots of local produce available but they also have some interesting gifts to make your own food products. The cheese making kit was a big hit with some friends of ours when they tried it out. There’s also a make your own cider kit available – a great use of local Harcourt apples. A Fowlers preserving kit is on my own list this year (314 Lyttelton Terrace

www.bendigowholefoods.com.au). Don’t forget The Wine Bank which has a source of local wines to give as a present. The long opening hours at the Wine Bank make it a great spot to complete some Christmas shopping if you are running short on time. While you’re there you might enjoy a Rose – a perfect summer drink (45 View St Bendigo, www.winebankonview.com). Another great option for presents is to buy some kitchen equipment and package it up with the right ingredients. We are absolutely spoilt with the incredible range available from Sue and Betty at The Cooks Gallery. I may have been a tad overambitious but last week I purchased a biscuit forcer from the Cooks Gallery with the idea of making some pretty shaped biscuits for Christmas (23 Queen Street). You can also buy a gift voucher from one of our great local restaurants – maybe you could combine it with an offer to mind the kids as well. Happy Christmas!

AST night in Quarry Hill, at least 50 passionate locals met to talk and be inspired about food. More importantly, they discussed sustainable food systems for our region. As part of his visit to Australia, UK social entrepreneur Chris Walsh was invited to speak about his role in making his local city, Manchester, a Sustainable Food City through food-related social enterprise and sustainable organic waste management. Mr Walsh understands the importance of relationships in establishing viable social enterprises. As a committed pioneer of the Kindling Trust, he has been integral in establishing myriad activities in Manchester, including a network of over 400 sustainable food practitioners and a co-operative of local organic growers and restaurants working together to provide fresh, seasonal food. His informative talk was followed by an interactive session with locals involved in community food

initiatives, including Food Fossickers, the Bendigo Community Farmers’ Market, Peppergreen Farm and Greater Bendigo council who discussed the latest hot topic of food waste and city-wide composting. Representatives from other food initiatives included FoodBank, the BSG Community Food Network and the Bendigo Community Forest Garden were also in attendance. The evening was valuable for all those involved to connect and further establish relationships to continue to make Greater Bendigo a viable, sustainable city. The Outside the Square public talks have been running since March 2013, and celebrate local people who think a little differently to create positive change in our community. www.kindling.org.uk. – Bryley Savage

A. Jamon Iberico is a type of ham produced in Spain from the Iberico pig. This special pig, which is known for its black feet, roam on fields mostly in the south west of Spain. The best hams are produced when the pigs feed on acorns. The legs of ham are left to cure for 12 to 48 months and have a fantastic sweet nutty like flavour. Try it next time you come across it on a menu. Q. What is a mirepoix? A. A mirepoix is one of the first things you learn about when starting out as an apprentice chef. It is the base of most stocks, sauces and braises. Every chef or kitchen may have their slightly

different variations but it is often onions, carrot, celery and aromatics like bay leaf, peppercorn and fresh thyme. The mirepoix adds flavour and body to the stock or sauce. Q. What is the best way to cook dried beans? A. Dried beans like borlotti, haricot or cannelloni are one of my favourite things to cook. Although it may be very simple there are a couple of ways to take them from a boring bean to a fantastic part of a meal. Soak overnight, (don’t add any salt) and add a good glug of olive oil into the water, this will help break down the husk of the bean and soften them. Add a chunk of ham or cured meat into the pot or the husk from a wedge of parmesan cheese. This will add a great flavour, then season them after they are cooked.

bookclub news with Dianne Dempsey

In praise of writers who write back There’s a certain magic to receiving a personal letter from an author

H

UNDREDS of years ago, in another life time, when I was teaching school children I used to spend a lot of time making them fall in love with books. Apart from reading to the children, or telling them stories, one of my methods was to excite an interest in the books’ authors. We would look up their biographies, find a picture of them and imagine them writing away in their office. The children were always interested in the authors. They accrued great status and I think they imagined them as wizards who were able to create amazing and mysterious worlds. We wrote letters to them care of their publishers. The children would tell the authors how much they loved their stories and asked, they always asked, where do you get your ideas from? Not all of the authors replied to our letters but some did, and recently cleaning out my office papers I found examples of two such letters. One typed and signed letter dated 9th December 1986, is from Roald Dahl. The letterhead at the top says, Gipsy House, Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire. Even his address was thrilling to us. He then writes, “Dear children, far across the sea/How good of you to write to me/I love to read the things you say/When you are miles

and miles away/Young people, and I think I’m right/Are nicer when they’re out of sight. The second typed, two page letter is from Robin Klein. She refers to each child by name. “Dear Julius, Ronald, Melinda, Gary, Kerry, Fleur, Brydie, Michelle, Leigh, Jason, Fiona, Desmond, Terrie, Nathan, Jodie, Matthew, (Phew!!!).” She tells them where she got her idea for writing Boss of the Pool (I used to work in a nursing home like that). She adds that writing is more about hard work than the ideas. She is funny and so generous with her time. More recently I was coaching a young friend who was a reluctant reader and encouraged him to write to Morris Gleitzman whose books he was enjoying. He sent Mr Gleitzman an email and a very warm email was duly sent back. It was kind of him and my friend was very excited but it was not quite the same as receiving a letter. Letters received from the wizards are truly magical. PERSONAL: Letters from authors add a new dimension.

I

n July 1904, when Garrett John Sweeney was campaigning for Darling Ward in the Bendigo council elections, seasoned councillor and businessman JR hoskins referred to the new candidate as having a sound business capacity. Mr Sweeney had been approached by a number of gentlemen to make himself available, including TS Gibson, AM Poole, C houston, M Masters, WJ Lowndes, Bishop and Coates. eW Kirby was elected the permanent chairman of Mr Sweeney’s campaign committee with JR hoskins vice chairman and C houston honorary secretary. Mr Sweeney, as it transpired, was not the successful candidate in the election for council, however, he served in many capacities promoting the welfare of his adopted city. he was an active member of the Bendigo Progress Association and one of his colleagues from this organisation, Magnus Cohn, also was on the Welcome Committee for the officers and sailors of the American Fleet. There is no doubt that Mr Sweeney would have known the other 17 members of the welcome committee well before it had been assembled together. The reputation of Mr Sweeney was such that he was regularly described as a distinguished figure. So what do we know about him? We learn that he was born in Dublin in 1847 and came to the Australian colonies on board the Bayswater, he landed at Brisbane where for one and a half years he worked at his trade as a carpenter and joiner. Mr Sweeney did not find the Queensland weather to his liking

Special vision of Bishop T

and as a result took a ship south to Melbourne. As a complete contrast in weather he chose to go to Ballarat. he decided to do contract building, concentrating his energies in the area of Buningyong. One of his larger contracts was the construction of an entire township, four years in total being spent in the central highlands before he decided to come to Bendigo in 1869. Mr Sweeney was one of a number of contractors that worked on the construction of the Princess Theatre for John Crowley. JB Loridan used his services in the building of his City Family hotel. An application to the Victorian Railways as a foreman in their construction branch was successful and in time Mr Sweeney was promoted to Inspector of the Construction Branch. never squandering money he resigned from his position and again became a builder contractor as in his earlier years. By 1885 he had erected a number of substantial

buildings in the city. Simultaneous to being involved in contracting Mr Sweeney started a timber yard and sawmill, soon he also added a joinery plant to the enterprise which was situated in Garsed Street. The business expanded as did the number of contracts that he managed to secure, work on the Mechanics Institute octagonal library, extensions for the Mechanics Institute and later building the Bendigo School of Mines and Industries. There were a number of prominent hotels which Mr Sweeney was able to add to his CV, including the Rifle Brigade in View Street and the Sandhurst hotel in Lyttleton Terrace, this fine substantial double storey hotel was demolished to make way for the municipal offices and its forecourt. At one stage Mr Sweeney had 160 men working for him, so he was an important employer. The joinery shop was kept very busy in the production of window

frames and sashes, as well as in furniture manufacture. he had secured the contract from the education Department for the manufacture of desks and other school furniture for the northern part of Victoria. Regarded as one of the main springs in the Bendigo Progress Association, he also served as a councillor of the Agricultural Society Committee. Another abiding interest was as a board member of the Benevolent Asylum for 16 years (Anne Caudle Centre), he was an Insurance representative for Victoria Insurance Co Ltd and the South Australian Insurance Company. he lived initially in Garsed Street several hundred metres from his timber yard and joinery works, the horses for his business were stabled at the rear of his home. In 1871 Mr Sweeney married Bridget Fitzsimons there were a number of children, some of whom died under tragic circumstances.

he man who built the city’s great Sacred heart Cathedral was blind. Bishop Martin Crane (1818-1910) was originally born hale and hearty in Wexford and was one of five children who all joined religious orders. Consecrated a bishop in Dublin in 1874, he had already built two churches there before coming to Australia where he was to be the first Bishop of Sandhurst. There was some irony in his surname, as once in Bendigo Bishop Crane started an impressive program of building 62 churches and staffed the diocese with more than 50 priests. he travelled from Bendigo to Rome in 1882 and while there had several operations for cataracts. After four years he came back to Bendigo to continue to build churches and schools but he was now a blind man. he bought back with him a portrait (above) dated 1883. he appears to have his eyesight in the portrait and whether that was because of the diplomacy of the artist or he still had his eyesight at that time, is a matter of conjecture. In June 1897 when the cathedral’s foundation stone was laid, Bishop Crane had been blind for 15 years. The cathedral was formally opened in 1901. Bishop Crane died a few weeks later on October 21, 1901. - Dianne Dempsey with Donna Bailey, archivist of the Catholic Sandhurst Diocesan collection.

DAVID Chislett aka Jaserfold has spent a lifetime perfecting the art of illusion with his traditional magic shows, much to the delight of his audiences young and old. “I’m more your traditional magician, who specialises in many of the old tricks from a lifetime ago,” David said. “After all many tricks haven’t changed for a hundred years, and some are so old they are new again.” In just a hectic 12 months in the Bendigo region he has already thrilled hundreds of locals with his mystifying acts, although he is yet to perfect his most common request. “I’d be a multimillionaire now if I got a dollar every time somebody asked me to make their husband or wife disappear,” he said with a wink and a tap of his wand.

Jaserfold is available for corporate or private bookings including children’s birthdays and Christmas parties and has wowed the older generation with numerous appearances at various nursing homes throughout the region. In fact David will be wowing festival goers at the forthcoming ‘Look at us Now Festival’ at the Ingewood Town Hall in early December. “Magic has always been popular and it still remains a mystery in this day and age,” David said. “And I always know I’ve had a good show when I overhear people asking, how did he do that?” Jaserfold can’t promise to make your husband or wife disappear, but he can promise an entertaining show and realistic rates.

USTRALIA’S geographic isolation provides a buffer from many infectious diseases, however, this rule has a notable exception for many family cats as Feline AIDS seems to be gaining quite a foothold. Caused by feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), feline AIDS is just as you would imagine it with the cat’s immune system malfunctioning, resulting in a host of secondary problems. FIV must surely be the new nemesis of the humble Aussie cat as this virus has achieved the dubious record of being the single most prevalent feline infection in Australia. Recent studies indicate up to a quarter of Victorian cats may be infected. Add to this, the disturbing calling cards of feline AIDS – ulcers, skin lesions, infections and even cancer – and you’d not

be alone if you’re already keys-in-hand and off to the local vet. How do you keep your cat protected? You have two options, the simplest being never let your cat roam outside as infection occurs when one cat bites another. But what about cats that demand time outdoors. These cats need the protection of a vaccination. Fortunately you can bundle it in with the cat’s annual vaccination/check-up to make it easier. Talk to the staff at Bendigo Animal Hospital for some professional advice and they’ll have your family feline purring for years to come.

Desexed, Male. 2 years

Baxter DSH

my own space. I would be well suited to a home with adults or older children. I may bbe happy living with a friendly, desexed cat, bbut not one who is going to be ‘in my face’. My coat is easy to care for, I am desexed and Microchipped. Come and meet me!

Desexed Female, 5 months

I am very sweet and affectionate. Being a typical puppy, I have plenty of energy. I will need puppy training and socialization, to help me mature into a well-behaved member of your family. I was born blind in one eye, but this doesn’t slow Leela me down one bit! My coat will need regular Border Collie X brushing, and I will need a secure yard. I may be a bit too energetic for young kids, but I would make a great companion or older children or adults. I may like living with a friendly, desexed canine companion. I am desexed and Microchipped. Please come in and meet me!

Perth forward heads east to join Bendigo Braves

Wildcat in the ranks By JOEL PETERSON

THE Bendigo Bank Braves sealed the deal on another recruit for the 2014 SEABL season this week, with Perth Wildcats forward Michael Vigor committing to the club. Vigor, who stands at 205cm, is currently playing with the Wildcats in the National Basketball League after a stellar Southern Basketball League in Western Australia with Perth. Vigor is a development squad member with the ladder-leading Wildcats in the NBL, and provides some much-needed size on the Braves’ roster. The 23-year-old has only played in one game for the Wildcats this season, registering less than a minute in a 40-point de-

molition of Wollongong, but will be gunning for the limelight in his debut SEABL season. “We needed someone big, to get Michael who is six-foot-nine and very talented is a bonus,” Braves coach Ben Harvey said.

in the front court as well as at the wing positions, but Harvey is not going to make any rash decisions. “We are still looking at numerous players, this is not a decision we want to rush however now we have Michael we have a greater

To get Michael who is six-foot-nine and very talented is a bonus “Michael is very excited about coming to Bendigo as he is hoping to find his way into the NBL.” Harvey is now setting his sights on the Braves’ two imports for the 2014 season, following the departure of Jazz Ferguson and Ivan McFarlin. The Braves will likely be looking for a further boost

focus on what type of player we need,” he said. There was more good news for the club this week, with the coaches for the Braves’ two Big V youth league sides confirmed. Bendigo Lady Braves legend and all-time club games record holder Andrea Walsh will again take control of the Big V women’s

side, while long-time Braves SEABL assistant coach Richard Randall will be at the helm of the men’s team. Braves director of coaching Jonathan Goodman said the appointments were a boost to both sides. “We are extremely pleased with the appointment of Richard Randall, he has an outstanding history in developing juniors and his involvement in the seniors program will be a key ingredient in developing our future Braves,” Goodman said. “Andrea Walsh was a fantastic addition to last year’s program, the way she developed our young women and provided pathways to the senior program was brilliantly coupled with her ability to assist in the SEABL Program.”

Legends line up for cricket SEVERAL Australian cricketing legends will take on a Bendigo District Cricket Association representative side in a Twenty20 match at the Queen Elizabeth Oval tonight, as part of the Australian Cricketers Association tour in Bendigo. The ACA players attended a sportsman’s night last night at the All Seasons and also ran clinics at the QEO ahead of their match against a side littered with local up-and-comers tonight. Captained by Strathdale-Maristians’ triple-premiership skipper Linton Jacobs, the team features some of the BDCA’s brightest young stars including Bendigo’s Nathan Fitzpatrick, Eaglehawk’s Cam McGlashan and Strathfieldsaye’s Hamish Schumacher. Schumacher, Fitzpatrick and Sandhurst’s Isaac Conway will also vie for a $1000 scholarship, being offered up by the ACA. ACA chief executive Paul Marsh said the scholarship will help meet the coaching, travel or other cricket-related expenses of the recipient for the year. “As well as the financial assistance, we recognise that these young players also need positive role models and who better than a former elite player to give them guidance and a sounding board,” he said. “We are on the lookout for players with the talent and desire to play high level cricket. Many of our current and former Australian players have come from regional parts of Australia, so this is a very important part of the tour program.” The match gets under way at the QEO at 5.30pm, entry is $5 for adults with children under 16 admitted for free.

STAYING ON: Thunder coach Russell Jefferey. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

Thunder coach re-signs AS it heads into a 2014 season filled with change, the Bendigo Thunder will remain stable at the top, re-signing dual premiership coach Russell Jeffery this week. The Thunder is stepping up to the Victorian Women’s Football League premier division next season, after winning back-to-back flags in the league’s north west conference. Jeffery has been the club’s coach since its inception, leading the club to finals in all three seasons and is looking forward to the challenge that the premier division will provide. “I’m very pleased to be able to take the next step with the Thunder,” he said.

“We have come a long way since we first took to the field three years ago and the move into premier division is a fantastic opportunity.” After finishing with a percentage of 680.46, and winning their 17 games this season by an average of almost 60 points, the Thunder are ready to be challenged every week according to Jeffery. “It is definitely going to be challenging for us, the clubs which are currently in premier division have been around for many years,” Jeffery said. “We are still in our infancy, but stepping up will allow us to be challenged week in week out.”

RECRUIT: Elyse Penaluna in action. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

Positive Penaluna AS Elyse Penaluna gets ready for training with her Bendigo Spirit teammates, she smiles, laughs, and paints a much more positive picture than the last two years of her career would lend themselves to. The Spirit recruit has navigated a long road back from injury after tearing the ACL in her knee in the 2011 South East Australian Basketball League grand final playing for Dandenong. After undergoing reconstructive surgery, Penaluna worked her way back into the 2012-13 WNBL season with Bulleen (now Melbourne) and played well in her 18 games, before the injury bug bit once more. In yet another a cruel blow, she was forced to undergo surgery at the end of the season with Bulleen before carrying a niggling injury into the SEABL season with the Bendigo Lady Braves and playing in only one game. Now starting at centre for the Spirit she is back in form and has played a key role in the team’s nine-game winning streak. Her return, however, has not been without its speed bumps and moments of self doubt along the way. “I had my days. Some days I thought ‘this is the worst thing in the world, I’m never going to play again’, and other days I couldn’t wait to get back out there,” she said. “I’m really happy I’m back and playing. It was definitely a pretty long and drawn out process, but it has made me who I am, and hopefully I am better for it.” Three surgeries and more than two frustrating years after the initial injury, things

are starting to move in a decidedly more positive direction for the 25 year old. She got married to fiancé and Spirit assistant coach Jonathan Goodman earlier this year, the first link in a chain of events decidedly different since that fateful SEABL grand final day at Dandenong Basketball Stadium. “It’s been a pretty good second half of the year considering,” she said. “All the girls have been great helping me to learn Bernie’s stuff, and there are so many great players here to work with and learn from. “I couldn’t have asked for more in that respect.” At the time of the initial knee injury the former Broadmeadows junior was just days away from going to play for top French league side Aixen-Provence. She was also on the cusp of cementing her place within the Australian Opals ranks, and possibly gaining selection for the London Olympics. Playing in Europe is now off the table, but the fire to represent her country still burns within her. “I definitely want to get back into the Opals squad, I was shattered when I found out I had lost an opportunity there,” she said. “Europe, I’m not so sure about anymore. I think I want to play out the rest of my years here. “I’ve just got married and we want to start a family, so I’m happy staying at home to play.” In the meantime, her sights are set firmly on the rest of a long, and hopefully successful, season with the Spirit.

ATTACKING PLAY: United’s Tim Elliott blasts his way to 51 against Maiden Gully.

the Redbacks piled on 263. Bell (96) had good support from Trent Bysouth (39), Matt Dwyer (38), Mick Peters (35) while for Sedgwick it was the Jordan Knight show, as he toiled hard and was rewarded with a five-wicket haul. The Catchcart Smash Repairsbacked Bash for Cash competition on Tuesday night featured a few thrilling finishes, including a one-run win to Golden Gully over West Bendigo at Pearce Reserve. Wests needed 39 off the final 15 balls for victory before Ashley Durie blasted consecutive sixes over mid-on to make the equation a little more manageable. Gully threw Cam Moore into the attack to bowl the final over with the Redbacks needing nine runs for vic-

tory, a figure that was reduced to four with one ball remaining. Dwyer, who made a fine 41 not out, belted the final delivery to deep midwicket where he was dropped on the boundary, but he and Shaun Stone could only salvage two runs to go down in a thriller. In the earlier match at Mandurang, United’s Tim Elliott blasted 51 to lead the Tigers to 7/130 and a comfortable win over Maiden Gully, who made 8/112 batting first. In other matches, half centuries to Andrew Gladstone and Jeremy Ross led Marong to an easy victory over Kangaroo Flat, Axe Creek were too good for Spring Gully, Mandurang flexed their muscle in disposing of Sedgwick and Strathfieldsaye defeated Emu Creek.

Emu Valley Cricket Association – Division 1

IN a rain interrupted day’s play at Pearce Reserve, Rod Smyth appears to have given United the upper hand restricting fellow top-four side Mandurang to 9/168 to start round five in the Emu Valley Cricket Association. Apart from Rhys Williams (58) and Ben Rodda (24) who added 53 for the fourth wicket, the Rangas struggled to put partnerships together and will need quick runs when they resume this week to put some pressure on the talented United batting line up. Maiden Gully’s top order finally cashed in, compiling 266 against Axe Creek at Evolution Oval. Gully recruit Simon Cole (64) led the way with good support from skipper Brenden Pearce (52) while Paul Martin (45) made sure the Gully bowlers finally had a total to defend, Nick Skeen led the way for the Cowboys with figures of 3/29 while the trio of Travis Nolan, Jamie Morgan and David Cannings all captured two wickets apiece. At Cal Gully Oval, Golden Gully were sitting pretty at 2/85 before crumbling to be all out for 143 as Emu Creek strike bowler Simon Marwood 6/45 destroyed the Cobras’ top order. Only Rick Johnson (37) and Brendon Lummis (30) provided any real resistance to Marwood and opening partner Anthony Collins (2/36) who combined for eight of the 10 Cobra wickets to fall. Daniel Chamberlain and Brad Rowe will resume this week as the Emus reached 0/29 by stumps on Saturday. Spring Gully coach Damien Dunlop bowled unchanged to capture 4/81 off 34 overs as Marong compiled 7/229 against the Crows. The Panthers’ effort was largely due to Nick Ede’s 66 not out, Jeremy Ross (44) and Andrew Brown (33) were the only other Marong batsman to pass 20. West Bendigo veteran Ken Bell fell agonisingly short of a century at Club Court against Sedgwick, making 96 as

Tour return By JOEL PETERSON

THE Jayco Herald Sun Tour will return to Bendigo early next year, when the longest stage of the 61st edition of the race finishes in Bendigo on Friday, February 7. The race starts with a twilight prologue in the Melbourne CBD before the first stage takes riders on a challenging journey from Geelong to Ballarat. After rolling out of Ballarat and through Creswick, the riders will head through Daylesford and Hepburn Springs before continuing toward the historic areas around Castlemaine such as Guildford, Fryerstown and Chewton.

2011 winner Nathan Haas, who will be riding with the international GarminSharp team, is looking forward to. “The Herald Sun Tour is Victoria’s biggest cycling event and Australia’s longest running tour. In my mind it should always be and have always stayed a UCI level race and I am glad it is back where it should be,” Haas said. “The prologue will create a leader on the road for the first stage but there will be so many strong teams now that it is back to UCI status that I doubt we will see a lucky breakaway on stage one.” Sport and Recreation Minister Hugh Delahunty

The Herald Sun Tour is Victoria’s biggest cycling event and Australia’s longest running tour Then comes the day’s big test, an ascent of Mount Alexander, before travelling through Emu Creek and Strathfieldsaye on the way to the stage finish in the heart of Bendigo after 165 gruelling kilometres. The race has returned to UCI status for next year’s event, something

said it was great to have the tour head to regional locations such as Bendigo, long regarded for its strong cycling community. “The Victorian Government is pleased to be able to support the [tour] which showcases not only some of Australia’s best athletes but also some of our greatest regions,

including those with a strong cycling history,” he said. Stage three of the Herald Sun Tour will take in the scenery from Michelton Winery to Nagambie, before the tour reaches its climax on Sunday, February 9, with a 124km stage featuring the climb of Arthurs Seat three times. The Michelton Winery will also host the upcoming River and Ranges Winery Ride on Sunday. It will feature the entire men’s Orica GreenEDGE team riding alongside the public. “After growing up in Bendigo, and more recently having a strong attachment to Nagambie and Mitchelton, I know exactly what’s on offer in the great outdoors,” Orica GreenEDGE team owner and Cycling Australia president Gerry Ryan told the Bendigo Weekly. “Our Winery Ride takes in the Strathbogie Ranges and the lovely Goulburn River, and the participants get to enjoy all of that, while they ride along with their stars from the Tour de France.“ More information is available at www.wineryride.com.au.
