THE city’s first mosque is set to be built in East Bendigo. The $3 million Bendigo Islamic Centre planned for Rowena Street will feature two prayer halls to accommodate the city’s growing Muslim community. A community sports hall, office,

Plans for Bendigo’s first mosque education facilities, a food court with a coffee shop and snacks, a three-bedroom caretaker home and two ancillary rooms will also be part of the building. About 150 Muslim families will use the 2000-square-metre space for prayer and community uses. Asher Greenwood of GKA Ar-

chitects said the two-storey, multiuse building was designed to have a ”community function”. “The building is designed around a series of courtyards. The building is more a community centre than prayer hall. It has been designed for many groups,” he said. “We have tried to link the build-

ing in with the rest of the community without impacting the outside community [landscape]. “We have tried to make the mosque much more open [than those in Melbourne]... so the whole community can go.” The centre will reflect an Australian-Muslim community and lo-

cal materials will be sourced for its production. The poly-carbonate, corrugated iron dome uses Australian materials and reflects a traditional Victorian dome. The Bendigo Islamic Centre will be developed in three stages with half of it completed in the first stage on the two-hectare lot.

Preselection for Liberals

Student and businessman named as community ambassadors

THE Liberal Party has opened its preselection for its two Bendigo seats. The party is calling for nominations for the Labor-held seats of Bendigo East and Bendigo West. It has also opened nominations for the Central Victorian seats of Ripon and Macedon. Businessman Jack Lyons, son of Greater Bendigo mayor Barry Lyons, told the Bendigo Weekly last year he would nominate for Bendigo West. The Liberals believe Bendigo West is their best chance, with Jacinta Allan unlikely to be beaten in Bendigo East. Meanwhile, the two Liberal representatives for Bendigo’s Upper House seat of Northern Victoria – Wendy Lovell and Amanda Millar – will hold a listening post on Wednesday “to hear Bendigo residents’ issues and concerns”. The pair will set up at Bendigo Marketplace from 11am to 12.30pm. Ms Lovell is Housing and Early Childhood Development Minister. Mrs Millar was appointed in August, replacing Woodend’s Donna Petrovic who unsuccessfully ran in the federal election in the neighbouring seat of McEwan.

Citizens of 2014 WELL-KNOWN businessman Gordon McKern and medical student and rural health advocate Skye Kinder are the City of Greater Bendigo Citizen and Young Citizen of the Year. Mayor Barry Lyons said the pair were highly deserving of the city’s top accolade. “Gordon and Skye are exceptional leaders in their chosen fields and are great ambassadors for Bendigo,” he said. “Gordon has shown a great commitment to the local community, particularly in regards to his support for local businesses, regional development and innovation. “He has also served as a long time board member at the Bendigo Art Gallery and supported the arts at a community level as President of the Dahlia and Arts

Festival for nine years. He has a personal passion to build opportunity and assist those who are less fortunate.“ Skye is a medical student at the University of Melbourne and has already completed a Bachelor of Biomedical Science with First Class honours in the field of regenerative neurology. “Her passion for rural health care and a desire for all people, regardless of where they live, to have access to good quality healthcare is important and there is no doubt Skye will continue to campaign on this important issue,” Cr Lyons said. “The council is very proud to award Gordon and Skye with this great honour and I wish them an enjoyable and exciting year ahead.” The Citizen of the Year is a

mostly ceremonial position, with the winner invited to speak at citizenship ceremonies during the year. About Gordon McKern MR McKern has been named as the City of Greater Bendigo’s Citizen of the Year for his community and charitable service, commitment to the arts and culture of Bendigo and support for local business. He is the chairman of McKern Steel, the Bendigo Art Gallery and its associated foundation, and the Aspire Cultural and Charitable Foundation, which is associated with the Sacred Heart Cathedral. He has also served on the board of Sandhurst Trustees and Coliban Water.

THIRTY-SEVEN local drivers were caught drink driving during a two month summer road enforcement campaign. Victoria Police’s Summer Stay campaign hosted four operations to target impaired drivers, holiday drivers and reduce the road toll. About 1100 Bendigo drivers were issued for other infringements such as speeding and seatbelt offences during the campaign. Summer Stay finished on this week with police continuing their efforts to reduce unsafe road behaviours. Bendigo Police Acting Senior Sergeant Della Nihill said it was “unfortunate” people were not heeding the safe driver message. “It is unfortunate people are contributing to the factors that lead to fatalities,” she said. “The message does not seem to be getting through.” Victoria Police will start Operation AMITY on Australia Day, January 26, to target low-level speeding. The operation will continue across the year, catching drivers who travel just above the speed limits. Road policing command Superintendent Neville Taylor it was disappointing people continued to take unacceptable risks. “Speed is a killer and is a major factor in about a third of collisions each year,” he said. “Low-level speeding can be just as dangerous as high-level speeding and research shows that your risk of being involved in a collision doubles for every 5km/h over the speed limit you are in a 60km/h zone. “We need to change the culture where people think it’s acceptable to speed and to engage in other risky behaviour on our roads.”

Price rise predicted

BY ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGO house prices are predicted to jump by more than 50 per cent over the next five years, on the back of the city outshining the rest of the state for the past five. Bendigo house prices rose dramatically from 2000 to 2005, with some doubling. Real Estate Institute of Victoria Bendigo president Matt Leonard said he thought the Bendigo market was in the same position as it was in 2000. “All things being even, we are on the cusp of significant growth,� he said. “In my opinion, we can expect growth of at least 50 per cent over the next five years.� RP Data figures show the city outshining all other major Vic-

torian centres over the past five years. Bendigo’s median housing value has risen 33.4 per cent in the five years to September 2013. That increase was a lot larger than Geelong (26.7 per cent), Melbourne (26.2) and Ballarat (24.5).

per cent, and Ballarat’s 19.7. The increase in the total value of Bendigo property also performed well against the other cities. More than $538 million worth of homes was sold in the year to September 2013, an jump of five per cent for the year.

In my opinion, we can expect growth of at least 50 per cent over the next five years The median value of Bendigo’s unit prices also topped the list over the past five years. The median value of units in Bendigo rose 24.6 per cent over the past five years, the same increase as Geelong. Melbourne’s five-year unit median value price increased 20.9

Ballarat’s total value dropped by two per cent, Geelong’s rose by 0.5 per cent and Melbourne’s rose by six per cent. In the unit market, Bendigo outperformed all other comers in the past year. Bendigo was the only city out of the four to see an increase in

the total value of unit sales in the year to September. RP Data Victoria housing market specialist Robert Larocca said the growth should be of interest to investors. “2013 shapes as one of moderate and hopefully sustainable growth for the Bendigo residential housing market, with more houses being sold and higher prices than 12 months ago,� he said. “The improved market is also reflected in quicker house sales and more than $538 million of sales in the market for houses and $58m worth of units. “Of particular interest to most home owners is the very solid medium-term growth in values, amounting to 33 per cent over five years, which exceeds that recorded in the comparable centres of Geelong and Ballarat.�

Huntly in line for promised gas supply

will see the natural passage of the gas pass about 580 properties. On top of that there are at least another 350 properties on the outskirts of town.� Huntly is one of the 14 priority towns to receive the reticulated natural gas network. Huntly gas contractor SP AusNet is undertaking the project with the government. “What they [the locals] have pined for is finally being delivered,� Mr Ryan said.

ANOTHER grass fire started when a stolen car crashed at Big Hill on Wednesday night. The orange car was stolen from Long Gully about 9.30pm and locals reported the male driver, driving “erratically� in Kangaroo Flat and Marong. Bendigo Police acting sergeant Forbes Klemm said the driver cleared a patch of trees, hit a sign and ended up in the road’s ditch. The man fled the vehicle after it caught fire and fled the scene. Bendigo State Emergency Services duty officer Mal Ross said 20 volunteers attended the incident. “The Bendigo unit was called to the scene initially for a trapped person. But on arrival, we couldn’t locate the driver,� he said. “The SES assisted police to conduct a search for the driver.� Sgt Klemm said the man was believed to be known to police. “We don’t know if there were any other people in the vehicle,� he said.

“We are delighted to see this opportunity finally been made available to these folk. Labor would have never done this.� Mr Ryan said the State Government would install the remaining priority towns’ pipelines regardless of re-election. “The government is committed to delivering natural gas to more communities in regional Victoria and has already reached agreements to deliver gas to Huntly, Bannockburn, Avoca, Winchelsea

GOLDEN Square firefighters’ personal cars were egged on Wednesday night while they fought a grass fire near Big Hill. The brigade was called to help the Kangaroo Flat unit about 10pm after a car crash on the Calder Highway started a fire. The brigade took to facebook to voice their anger. “Very disappointed that our fire fighters’ cars were egged this evening while parked outside the station when we were attending an emergency call,� the facebook post stated. GSFB first lieutenant Tim McMeilly said the group was disappointed and annoyed at the act. “At least two cars, parked on High Street, were egged,� he said. “It is more disappointing. We are volunteers giving up our time to help other people and then to find someone egged the cars while we were at the fire.� AN 80-hectare fire north east of Bendigo and a fire at Serpentine blew smoke over the city on Wednesday. One fire broke out near the Barnadown to Myola Road in Muskerry at 4.40pm. A fire broke out in Serpentine about 2.30pm the same day, about 50 kilometres north of Bendigo. CFA senior station officer Dale Stemmer said unless people see flames or rising smoke, they should refrain from calling the emergency services.

ON THE WAY: SP AusNet’s Geoff Thorn, Acting Premier Peter Ryan and Member for Rodney Paul Weller view a section of pipe. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN ABOUT 900 Huntly homes will be connected to natural gas after the rollout of a $4.5 million gas network. Almost four kilometres of pipeline has been laid along Midland Highway with an additional 13km to be rolled out by mid year. Acting Premier Peter Ryan said the gas supply was a great success for the people of Huntly. “This is a great day for the people of Huntly,� he said. “When complete, the project

BLACK SATURDAY - 5 YEARS ON

The head of the fire By CHRISTINE McGINN

NEXT month will mark five years since Bendigo’s greatest natural disaster. One man died and 58 homes were destroyed in the Bendigo Black Saturday fire on February 7, 2009. As the anniversary looms, Bendigo will remember the utter devastation and the heroic acts it inspired. In the coming weeks, the Bendigo Weekly will share the journey and memories of those affected by the fires, in the lead-up to the anniversary. MARK GILMORE was Bendigo’s Country Fire Authority operations officer on that devastating day. Mr Gilmore had been working with the incident management team at Epsom, co-ordinating emergency service efforts to put out the Redesdale blaze. But when his hometown turned red, Mr Gilmore decided to get on the ground. “The Bendigo fire was having significant impact and they were unable to control the fire with that intensity,” he said. Travelling down the eastern flank of the fire, Mr Gilmore gained situational awareness of it. “Our radios weren’t working properly because of all the smoke particles... But I was directly under the smoke cloud and didn’t realise.” Taking charge, Mr Gilmore led Bendigo’s volunteers, CFA, State Emergency Service and Department of Primary Industries members to tackle the fire. Left without a whiteboard, Mr Gilmore drew up the plans for the team on the bonnet of his car. “We set up traffic management, turned off the gas and electricity in the affected areas, set up radio channels before the second incident management team was set up,” he said. Mr Gilmore said the fire preparation began four to five days earlier when with an unprecedented weather forecast. “We did some preparedness work above the level we would normally do,” he said. “The state had been baked. The previous two weeks had been days approaching 40 degrees, in drought conditions.

“The whole urban landscape changed... and people were fatigued. The landscape was set, ready for it.” Mr Gilmore said the fires’ ferociousness had never been witnessed in regional Victoria. “All we had in those days was a Code Red day, which was quite different to what it is now, so in preparedness we described it is as Illuminous Code Red to get across the difference,” he said. “The advisory ratings didn’t really cover what we were trying to get across and alert people to.” Two youths, aged 14 and 15, were charged with deliberately lighting the Bendigo fires, but were deemed unfit to stand trial. Black Saturday’s death toll was the largest of all Victorian bushfires in recorded history. Mr Gilmore said he cannot forget the concern he felt for his family who were defending their home under threat of the fire. “That was a fairly strenuous thought process to discipline yourself to do your work and actually put the fire out,” he said. “Because in the process you also make

it safer for your, family too.” Focussed on the job, Mr Gilmore said he did not notice his friend of 30 years standing in front of him. For Mr Gilmore, the critical lesson was the need to include the community in the prevention and combat of fire. “We want them to think they are part of it and we need them to be part of it and be actively involved,” he said. “We need to change community behaviour and to do that, we need them to keep it in the forefront of their minds that the place we live will have fire.” Locals are urged to make realistic plans about who will be able, mentally and physically, to defend the home if they decide to stay. Mr Gilmore said he would ride, years later, through the fire tortured area to bask at the regrowth and revival of the area. But in a cathartic move, Mr Gilmore and his wife Christine shifted to their vineyard beyond the fire-scorched area. Although the trees have regrown, the unforgiving destruction and memories remain vivid among local survivors. “For people who live in the part of the world where we do, the potential for fire is always there,” Mr Gilmore said.

A TRAILER’S mechanical fault is believed to have caused the two Lyal fires on Monday. About 60 hectares of Lyal and Myrtle Creek were scorched after two sparks set the blaze alight about 4pm. The Lyal fire was downgraded to an advice message after firefighters contained the two fires about 5.55pm on Monday night. About 150 firefighters, 30 tankers and three aircraft worked on the Lyal fire until 11pm. Bendigo Police senior sergeant Craig Gaffee said it was important locals check their equipment to reduce fire risks. “It is important people check their trucks, tractors and tools to ensure they are mechanically sound. In the current climate it only takes one spark,” he said. The CFA issued an Emergency Warning for Myrtle Creek and Lyal, in the Lake Eppalock area, between Redesdale and Axe Creek on Monday afternoon. The fire was within the Kimbolton State Forest and burnt across Mangans Lane and Randall Road. The fire was spotting up to 200 metres ahead of the fire front. Mangans Lane, Randall Road and Scotty Track were closed. CFA District Two duty officer Bruce Quarrier said one local volunteer firefighter had received a knock to the head. Mr Quarrier said an onscene ambulance immediately attended to the man.

Sen Sgt Gaffee said the community provided police with “lots of information” enabling them to better understand the fires. “There were lots of people calling through. We want to encourage people who see something suspicious or unusual,” he said. “With a little bit of wind and the dry conditions, even on a day when it’s not a Total Fire Ban day, there is still a lot of risk.” Sen Sgt Gaffee said locals must make sure they reduce all obvious risks and are aware of possible consequences. Locals issued with fire prevention notices are also being urged to clean up their properties. Greater Bendigo council released a reminder this week, calling for home owners to take preventative action. Fire Prevention officer Eric Smith said it was dangerous for property owners to ignore clean-up requests. “Bendigo and surrounding areas have recently experienced high temperatures and grass fires, and overgrown grass, shrubs and leaf litter can accelerate the spread of fire, especially if there are embers flying around,” Mr Smith said. “The natural surrounds of Bendigo increases the likelihood of a fire breaking out, which means rural and suburban property owners and their neighbours need to be vigilant in keeping gardens and paddocks tidy.”

DISTANT RELATIVES: Event director Chris Earl offers performers a helping hand. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

scots are out

THE rush for tartan has begun, in preparation for this year’s Scots Day Out. The event proper will be held on February 8 in Rosalind Park, but the group announced its new chieftain this week. The free community event will celebrate Scottish culture, music and traditions at the start of the International Year of the Haggis, the year Glasgow hosts the Commonwealth Games. And there will be even more Scots parading colourful tartans than at the first successful staging of the event.

1

The program has been expanded to include more highland dancing, Scottish storytelling, Scottish cuisine and activities for families and young people along with pipe bands, folk music and Scottish country dancing. For local people who fancy traditional Scottish fare, there will be competitions for the best shortbread and Athol Brose – a home-made whisky-based liqueur – and for the person who comes best dressed in the character of Braveheart, Scottish legend William Wallace as portrayed in the

film by Mel Gibson. “As Mel Gibson said in the iconic movie, we just want people to be themselves, and soak up the atmosphere, music and tastes of Scotland right here in Rosalind Park,” event director Chris Earl said. The launch also saw the announcement of the 2014 SDO chieftain, local solicitor Tim Robertson, who last wore a kilt as an army cadet at school. “I am quite looking forward to putting on a kilt again and proudly wearing the Robertson tartan,” Mr Robertson said.

ASHLEY Hicks saved a local man’s life this week. Neil, in his late 60s, came off his three-wheeled bike in Ironbark on Monday. Despite wearing a helmet, the man struck his face against the road. The 21-year-old Long Gully man jumped into action after seeing the older man on the road, with a tired woman standing over him. Mr Hicks and his mother, Wendy Clark, were driving home from visiting a dying relative at Bendigo hospital, when he was compelled to act. Mr Hicks told his mother to immediately pull over. “I took the first aid kit from the boot of the car. The nurse was tired from conducting CPR [on the man],� he said. “I took over and conducted CPR until the paramedics arrived.� For almost 13 minutes Mr Hicks conducted chest

sor Walker said. “CPR is one of the things that makes a difference to saving a life.� The man suffered facial fractures and was transferred to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition. Bendigo Police Senior Constable Patrick Allan said the man was in a “potentially life-threatening� situation. Mr Hicks had only practised CPR at a training course four years ago and briefly to receive his Red Card at Bendigo TAFE. Ambulance members took over from Mr Hicks and continued CPR on the man. Professor Walker praised Mr Hicks for his heroic effort. “We congratulate him on taking the initiative,� he said. Mr Hicks’ selfless act is one he will never forget “I was a bit of nervous wreck after it,� he said. “But it made me feel good to save a life.�

His journey has been inspired by his sister, Connie. “Connie is my hero, she’s fought cancer as a kid and is battling breast cancer now,� he said. “She set me the toughest challenge she could think of and dared me to set a new world record, raise $1 million to help find a cure for cancer and spread her important message of breast cancer awareness.� So far Samuel has travelled more than 13,000 kilometres, will do another 2000, and he’s already passed the target with the tally sitting at $1.1 million. “What I’m doing is an act of love for my dying sister, I

promised to uphold Connie’s legacy and it’s a promise I will keep,� he said. “Loveyoursister.org is up and running for people to contribute, and will continue to run beyond my trip. We have to work towards a cure.� Samuel is being backed by Bendigo Bank and the bank’s Lauren Andrews said he’s lining up events over the Labour Day weekend from March 7 to 10.

Victory in drug battle By CHRISTINE McGINN

AMELIA McCrohan is one leap closer to having a potentially lifesaving drug. For Christmas, Amelia asked Santa for Kalydeco, a potentially life-saving drug that targets the underlying causes of cystic fibrosis. The Pharmaceutical Benefit Advisory Committee approved the $300,000 a year drug on the Pharmaceutical Benefit Scheme in December. The battle to have the physical drug in Amelia’s hands still continues. But father Tim McCrohan said the hardest battle had been signed off. “We physically don’t have the drug in our hands but it’s now in the process,� the Goornong man said. “We are very confident we will get the drug soon. “We didn’t feel confident we

would get it through the PBS.� Born with a recessive genetic condition, Amelia “fails to thrive� as a normal child. She takes about 33 tablets and 10 medications daily to control her symptoms. Mr McCrohan said they were lobbying Health Minister Peter Dutton and Prime Minister Tony Abbott to take the recommendation to cabinet. About 200 Australians are waiting for the drug’s listing date to start treatment. Sufferers could wait up to 18 months to access the drug. “We haven’t won the war but we have certainly won a battle,� Mr McCrohan said. “We are a lot closer than we were. It will take time.� Cystic Fibrosis Australia is pushing the Federal Government to act and has criticised the drug’s manufacturer, Vertex, for the “unrealistic� cost.

/,= 5,''(// (;(5&,6( 3+<6,2/2*,67 Students have a say on chapel CATHOLIC College Bendigo VCAL students will help design and construct their new school chapel. The $850,000 building will welcome up to 350 worshipers, mainly students, to practise their faith. CCB principal Michael Chalkley said the student-focused chapel was an exciting next chapter for the school. “We want to have a substantial chapel as the current chapel is no bigger than a classroom,� he said. “Our aim is to build a chapel to potentially hold 350 people.� Year 11 and 12 VCAL students will build the 700-square-metre building on the CCB La Valla Campus in Junortoun. The building will be built using timber and strawbale to enable the school students to build it. “Design and construct is by

students who will have direct contact with professionals,� the planning application said. “Construction will be under the supervision of qualified trades-persons. “Each aspect of the project will have a direct link to the learning curriculum of the college.� The development will include both internal and external worship and prayer spaces across from the existing quadrangle. Plans for a student-driven chapel began about four years ago under the guidance of the previous principal. “It had been decided to involve the VCAL students in the building and construction plans... they need activities,� Mr Chalkley said. The planning application proposes the chapel would open during school hours, host about 12 evening masses and six early morning masses each year.

Up to six wedding ceremonies would be allowed on weekends across the year. Greater Bendigo council have requested 105 car spaces to be added to the proposed plans. Council have also requested a vegetation and biodiversity assessment and plan be submitted to identify potential losses on the St Vincents Road site. Y2 Architects have drawn up the plans and proposal free of charge for the school. Mr Chalkley said it was “really exciting� and looked forward to including all students’ work in the final interior design. “There is excitement within our school,� he said. “It would be great to open before the group of students leave. “The time frame is not the priority, our priority is it [the chapel] is student driven.� The chapel is expected to be completed by the end of 2015.

Unlike most mosques, Mr Greenwood said the prayer halls and building have been designed to host people of different nationalities. “There are a lot of different groups involved in this from different countries, it will be really diverse space and will have everybody together,” he said. Muslims pray five times a day, with the centre hoping to attract visitors as they pass through Bendigo. The centre will also provide 134 car spaces for visitors. Greater Bendigo council is requesting clarification about the owner, long-term

traffic impacts, “expansion plans” and future employment numbers. Council is concerned a retail shop would interfere with the industrial zoning of the site.

The airport has recommended the application be referred to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. Five application amendments are also required to explain the building’s impact

Six of the best? Might i humbly suggest my six citizens (in no particular order)? Leon Scott OAM; Mons. Frank Marriott Vg; Patti Cotton OAM; helen Yorston; gordon McKern OAM and Keith Sutherland. You may notice my disappointment in you not finding room for one volunteer. Your nominated six do their job (as they should) and are well remunerated (as they should be) so this should not be read as a criticism of their value to their community. i could continue with many more lists of individuals and groups, i.e. Meals on Wheels people etc. But lists can be dangerous, you tend to forget somebody! Often the hidden drivers of any community are those that act with noble altruism. Ian Dyett JP, Bendigo

Not my choice i reFer to your editorial about “Building Foundations� in the Weekly of Jan 3. i am sure there are many other worthy people who could be considered as having the “biggest impact on Bendigo�. that you would nominate the chief executive officer, Craig Niemann, and Lisa Chesters is a serious concern. Mr Niemann is the CeO and is on a retainer of more than $300,000 per annum. it would be expected that someone on his salary and level of responsibility would perform at the highest level. Your front page headline of the way Mr Niemann handled the independent review and the review’s outcome clearly must be questioned.

the greater Bendigo council’s media strategy, in consort with the local newspapers, was to clearly focus on the “noisy minorityâ€? to draw attention away from much of the serious recommendations of the independent review. this strategy has proven very successful. Firstly the review did not conclude that “things were going swimminglyâ€?. there were a number of issues raised by the independent review. the following are some examples: • investigate the recommendation that the Capital theatre, the Art gallery and council businesses be fully selffunding. the review wanted the performance of units in City Futures directorate measured and scrutinised. • improve project management relationships between divisions. there was a failure to follow government guidelines when developing business case studies. • Find the causes of the failure to meet budget estimates in Bencon and other units. • Adopt and improve employee performance management systems. • express concerns about managing future debt, funding of projects and the shortfall in funds for capital works. Mr Niemann has been CeO of the council that has spent millions on the Capital theatre and arts precinct while presiding over the neglect of important capital works and maintenance of council assets such as roads, footpaths and flood mitigation. i don’t think things are “’going swimminglyâ€?. Some balance about his performance would be appreciated. As for Lisa Chesters just what has she done? the Labor Party

barely scraped in at the last election in Bendigo and there was a massive swing against Labor here. Absolutely nothing for Bendigo. Colin Burns, Strathfieldsaye

The Salvation Army and Kmart say a big thank you ON behalf of the entire Kmart team and our friends at the Salvation Army, i’d like to say a big thank you to all who contributed to the 2013 Kmart Wishing tree Appeal. Australia’s largest gift appeal has again provided much needed Christmas cheer with 470,658 gifts donated for people in need across the country, an increase of 27,336 gifts on last year’s total. Kmart stores in Victoria collected a total of 95,798 gifts. this unprecedented generosity is thanks to people who have spared a thought for those who would otherwise go without at Christmas time. the 2013 Appeal also saw a large increase in business participation, with 181 organisations donating gifts and money to the Appeal. For the first time ever, Prime Minister tony Abbot also got behind the Appeal, erecting a Wishing tree in Parliament house. i’d like to thank you for supporting this great and much loved Christmas Appeal, once again showing the strength of the great Aussie spirit. Guy Russo, Managing Director Kmart

mayoral column A challenge By Cr Barry Lyons

it is no secret Bendigo is constantly evolving. A modest population of roughly 15,000 during the gold rush has expanded to more than 100,000 people and today Bendigo is a thriving regional centre. it’s little wonder then that our city is growing at a rate of nearly 2000 people per year, so now is not the time to stand still and expect what has been planned for and built to date will meet residents needs into the future. if we are guided by current demographic trends, we know the average age of Bendigonians will continue to increase and the number of persons per household will decrease. those two factors alone have significant implications for future planning. in the past, housing stock has been largely built on the pretext that most households consist of two adults and two or three kids, already this is not always the case and the demand for smaller properties to house one or two people will increase. in general, inner city living is forecast to grow in popularity, we will have to think about how old buildings can be given a new lease of life and identify infill opportu-

nities. the scale and impact of the new Bendigo hospital is only just starting to be realised. in the short term those working on the project will be looking for accommodation, in the longer term there will be more people working at the hospital who will want to live near the hospital. in the past we have tended to look at the central business district and the hospital as two different precincts. however with the growth of both of these areas, including the construction of the new Ulumbarra theatre and extensions to the Art gallery, the importance of planning for the whole of rosalind Park, which adjoins these precincts and facilities, is now more urgent. Planning for this whole area in the context of a city that will increase its population by at least another 25,000 people by 2030 presents an immense set of challenges and underpins why council is preparing a hospital Precinct Structure Plan and a rosalind Park Masterplan. Planning for growth is why the council is also undertaking a Bendigo residential Strategy and the integrated transport and Land Use Strategy – Connecting greater Bendigo. these two major projects will set the framework for how and where Bendigo grows for the

next generation. Major growth is taking place in the epsom huntly corridor, at Strathfieldsaye and Maiden gully. We need forward planning for these areas. the residential Strategy will identify a number of sites in the existing urban area where land has been overlooked and we can support different forms of housing to cater for changing household needs. Connecting greater Bendigo is examining how we provide a better range of transport options, more frequent bus services, cycling and walking options and how we better link our residential areas across the whole city including towns like heathcote and elmore and our rural areas. Consolidating our major employment and retail places makes it easier to provide better connections and ensure that the vital road works are also prioritised. Planning for Bendigo’s future is exciting but immensely challenging. getting the package of plans and actions in place for delivery and implementation is one of council’s key tasks. When you’re next asked your thoughts on a strategy or plan for the city, take a moment to pass them on as the plan will contribute to Bendigo’s overall liveability in years to come.

Pray and prosper TODAY’S Bendigo Weekly front page is great news for the city. For years, the local Muslim community has been pushing for a mosque for Bendigo. There are between 200 and 300 Muslim people in Bendigo, and about 150 families, according to community spokesman Heri Febriyanto. According to Mr Febriyanto, the community in Bendigo has been steadily growing. “At the moment we have more than 50 international, national and local Victorian students at La Trobe University,� he said. “Muslims in Bendigo come from Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, Africa, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Indonesia. “The Pakistani community and some people from Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are mostly working in the medical profession. “As well there are 30 Afghanistan people working at Hazeldene’s chicken farm.� While La Trobe has provided the Muslim community with a prayer room, they have outgrown the space. Mr Febriyanto told the Weekly in August the community will be gathering in the YCW Club hall in

GATHERING PLACE: An artist’s view. Golden Square. “We need to have our own place for worship soon,� Mr Febriyanto said. It looks like Mr Febriyanto’s wish, and the wish of the entire Bendigo Muslim community, is getting closer. However the $3 million plan revealed in today’s Weekly is not just good news for the local Muslim community, it is good news for the

entire city. Bendigo obviously offers all religions a safe atmosphere to pray and prosper. All across Bendigo, faiths are expanding. For years the Buddhist community has been constructing the Great Stupa of Universal Compassion. Even now, despite being a long way from completion, it is an attraction for Buddhists and tourists from around the world. The Catholic-based Aspire Foundation is building a religious museum as part of the impressive redevelopment of the front of the Sacred Heart Cathedral. The museum will highlight the history of all faiths on the Goldfields, and will also be a popular tourist spot in the years to come. The East Bendigo mosque will be yet another stop for the evergrowing religious tourism market, but it will be much more. For years, local Muslims have been worshipping in university rooms and a YMCA hall. This new facility is a big plus for them, and a big plus for Bendigo. It will highlight the importance of Bendigo to the Muslim world, and it will also showcase the importance of local Muslims to Bendigo.

GIVE BLOOD pk Uni has support it needs IN BENDIGO

with Peter Kennedy

TEN years ago this month, the then La Trobe University Vicechancellor Professor Michael Osborne was under siege from sections of the Bendigo media over concerns about the local campus’ future. The story dominated local papers, television and radio and appeared to catch the university on the hop. The Bendigo campus was at the crossroads, amid a flurry of allegations about funding shortfalls, staff discontent and an anti-Bendigo policy attitude. Fast forward a decade, and the university sits far more comfortably with the community it is a proud part of. The university is not without its challenges, but it’s also presented with a lot of opportunities to continue to expand and grow. The campus is far better integrated into the Bendigo

community than it was a decade ago. There are a multitude of new courses available to students, both undergraduate and postgraduate and the university’s reputation has been significantly enhanced, something Bendigo is all the better for.

The campus is far better integrated into the Bendigo community It’s about this time of the year that the next wave of local students receive offers from the university sector for places in 2014, based upon last month’s VCE results. The vast majority of Bendigo students will accept offers to further their education in Melbourne and beyond, although an increasing number of students will opt to study locally, a reflection of the work that’s

We all know that investing in a good education is one of the greatest things a parent can do for a child, but community support can also go a long way to help reap rewards that go a lot further than just contributing to the education sector. twitter@peterkennedy23 pk@bendigoweekly.com.au

Drive in cinema returns to Bendigo IF you thought a drive-in cinema was a thing of the past, think again. The cogs are turning on a plan to organise a family evening, complete with a live band, children’s entertainment and a drive-in cinema. Bendigo resident Noel Paech is the man behind the event and said he had been formulating the idea for a number of years. �During the past few years there has been a number of things that have now gone because of new technologies,� Mr Paech said. �The old things that people used to do for fun don’t exist anymore and are just memories.

�With the drive-in I want to bring back those memories for people, so that they can relive all the fun things they used to do.� Starlight Drive-In Presents Beneath the Southern Cross on January 25 at the Bendigo Showgrounds. It is an alcohol-free event and Mr Paech said all the profits would be donated to the Bendigo Volunteers Resource Centre. “Bendigo has been really good to me. So I want to give back to the community,� he said. He said a movie and a reel of cartoons would be shown on a screen and the audio would be transmitted through a FM radio signal.

Floating a new idea Mules have nothing on Fatso when it comes to stubborn

T

HE long-suffering Mrs Kendall has been looking for a new horse. She has a couple of old mares of the Irish Sport horse variety, but she wanted more of a hack. Sab at the office heard tell of a thoroughbred who had been racing but didn’t quite make the mark. Sab assessed this gelding to be perfect for Mrs Kendall’s needs, and the trainer was keen to pass him on. Nothing as pointless as a slow racehorse. He’s called Fatso, though that’s not his real name, and he has some knee problems which have put him out of the game. The trainer said he was too nice a horse to send away, so the dogmeat industry’s loss is our gain. Despite the fact he was free to a good home, Mrs K had a careful look at him and ummed and ahhed for a couple of days before finally taking the plunge and saying yes. She spoke to his examining vet who explained his knee issues and it was full

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, January 10, 2014

steam ahead. Fatso was, of course, none the wiser of his fate, but I wonder if he’ll miss the thrill of the racetrack and the smell of the crowd. Last Saturday we hitched up the trusty horse float and headed for Bendigo. Ramp down and ready to receive the horse, Mrs K put on his bridle and lead rein with ease. She walked him up the float ramp and then it all suddenly stopped. Until now, Fatso had only been in glamorous horse trucks. Roomy vehicles which took him to work and training, no way was he going to get on this small box on wheels.

He is a wonderful, calm horse, but apparently singleminded about floats. After a while we called in vet nurse Sue who has spent many an hour loading horses personally and professionally. There were ropes here and there and linked hands, but still Fatso would not board. We got him mostly in, but as we raised the tailgate he backed out. The tailgate slammed down like a Mitchell Johnson delivery. I was glad I was not in the way of either. Fatso was now back outside the float, winning, for the first time in his racing life. After 90 minutes, yes 90

minutes, we gave up. I was sunburnt, Mrs K was exhausted and Sue had somewhere to go. Fatso had taken to dozing, he was bored with the whole event. Mrs K decided to give it another go on Sunday, but I was having nothing to do with it. She called in Nikki, another horsey type, and called the trainer to let him know. The trainer had Fatso on the float in a minute using some tricks of the trade and the fuss was all over. Now he is home and Mrs K is starting the list of things he just has to have... watch out bank balance, there’s a new horse on the block. twitter: @stevekendall1

dear dotty... G’day Dotty, I have long been a fan, and consider you the guardian of Central Victorian mores. It is disappointing to see that you were not included in Bendigo’s ‘Six of the best’ this year. What were they thinking of? Better luck next year. John, Eaglehawk Dear John, You have been one of several correspondents who has written in with a similar sentiment. One does what one can for the general good of the people without any expectations of awards or public recognition. However, may I make it clear that I don’t see my work as “giving back to the community”. I haven’t got enough from the community in the first place. Dear Dotty, I have been going out with a very nice woman for several weeks but no longer wish to continue the relationship. Quite frankly she is so nice she is boring me witless. How do I break up with her without hurting her feelings. Greg, Maldon Dear Greg, I think it would be probably be best if you don’t do anything at all, that is just let your natural male instincts prevail. If you scratch, hawk, spit, fart and constantly ruminate on the Ashes series, that should do the trick.

Illustration: “Wildey”

Dear Dotty, I love my boyfriend very much but the relationship always seems to be one-sided. I even heard a rumour that he goes out to lunch with a girl from his work. I do everything for him, tell him I love him, buy him nice clothes, but nothing I do seems to make any difference to his attitude. I even lost five kgs so I am now a size 8. I can’t get any thinner, what can I do? Sad, Strathfieldsaye Dear Sad Girl, It might be time to face up to the fact that your boyfriend is a reluctant player. And guess what? You can’t make somebody love you, if the love isn’t there. And being thin doesn’t guarantee true love either. There are plenty of celebrity cases out there to prove this point. Audrey Hepburn, probably the thinnest woman in cinema history, was constantly betrayed by her husband. Jackie Kennedy was publicly humiliated by Jack. And look what happened to Jerry Hall and Jennifer Aniston. Their looks at the end of the day didn’t matter. If he is going to stray, he will stray and it doesn’t matter if you look like a walking skeleton. twitter@DearDotty

Into the Cage The rise of the UFC Nation Nick Gullo WHATEVER your view of cage fighting, this chronicle of the rise of the Ultimate Fighting Championship and mixed martial arts provides candid, behind the scenes photography. Surprisingly enough, the focus of the photos is more on what goes on before and after a fight, giving the reader a rare look at the training and lives of some of these famed fighters. The Orchard of Lost Souls by Nadifa Mohamed Simon & Schuster, $29.00

A

T first the narrative skips awkwardly from one character to the other, the first section serving as an extended introduction to the three main characters: Deqo, a young girl from a refugee camp, forced to live on the streets and eventually taken in by prostitutes; Kawsar, a widow in her late 50s,

“

confined to her house after a brutal assault at the local police station; and Filsan, a young soldier from Mogadishu come to quell the growing rebellion. The Orchard of Lost Souls, Nadifa Mohamed’s second novel, is set in 1987-88 in Hargeisa, Somalia, the author’s birthplace, and shows the dehumanising effects of civil war through the eyes of three women. The fates of all three collide at a rally held to celebrate the President’s rise 18 years previously after a military coup, and their stories veer off from this incident, exploring its consequences. It is after this that the narrative structure changes to concentrate on one character at a time, and it’s worth persisting with the introduction to get this far as Mohamed finally shows the talent she displayed in her first novel, Black Mamba Boy. Each character becomes distinct, their stories infinitely more moving when told from a

single point of view. Though some of the scenes are brutal and harrowing they’re never gratuitous, Mohamed instead uses them to highlight each woman’s struggle to survive physically and emotionally the evils of war. Named one of Granta’s Best of Young British Novelists for 2013, Mohamed’s writing is so vivid and poetic that it’s a pleasure to read, even when the subject is confronting. - Vanessa Hughes

HETHER it’s a hard day at the beach, the pool, the lake or the office in January, cooking dinner will probably be the last thing you want to do. When you’ve got that feeling this summer, a great fallback is the impressive Mexican section at Bendigo Wholefoods. The ongoing success of the Mexican Kitchen is proof that almost all of Bendigo loves some “south of the border� food. While the nachos and fajitas we all grew up with definitely have their spot, there’s a lot more of Mexico to discover – and it’s pretty easy to whip up at home. The starting point has to be grabbing one of the bibles of modern Mexican cooking from the Queen of UK Mexican cooking Wahaca’s Thomasina Miers (and not just because of her fabulous name). Browse through the great dishes in her books and you will soon be inspired to create a fiesta of your own. From Wholefoods, the starting point for any feast are some fabulous tortillas. Our favourite ones are the great corn tortillas packaged under the label “The Essential Ingredient�. They are very similarly priced to the mass produced numbers

you’ll find in the supermarkets but taste oh so much better. This summer we have discovered that the best way of preparing them is a quick zap in the microwave but then keep them warm in the Webber – and if you overdo the warming you have great tortilla chips. Of course, you can make your own tortillas, those who have done so tell me that they are not too tricky. Bendigo Wholefoods have an amazing array of specially produced-for tortilla flour if you want to be brave. One Wahaca recipe that I have just tried which is a great summer fallback is “smoky bird tacos�, although I serve them as tortillas. It’s a pretty basic mix of frying up onions, garlic, chipotles en adobo (available in a can from Wholefoods) some spices, two tins of crushed tomatoes and shredded chicken. This can be thrown together before the kids togs have had time to dry. Stay tuned until next week when I will talk more Mexican.

Treasure hunt at market

HE Bendigo Community Farmers Market is full of treasures to find – and eat – each month. So, in the spirit of the school holidays, the BCFM is holding a treasure hunt (with prizes) for kids at this week’s market. Kids will search for things like the biggest and smallest fruit or vegetable at the market, or at least one item that they have never eaten but would like to try. They will be encouraged to speak with producers about how they farm, and what they, the farmers, like to eat. “It makes a great morning out for the whole family,� market manager Hayley Davis said. “The kids will be engaged with finding out fun, interesting or silly things about fresh, local food, while their parents enjoy shopping and socialising over a coffee.�

Buskers and alternative roots duo, Zeebs vs Miss Vitula, will be adding their harmonious, soulful vibes to the general atmosphere. This month’s market is on Saturday, January 11, from 9am to 1pm at Sidney Myer Place, as usual. For more information, please call Hayley Davis on 0498 186 491, email manager@bcfm.org.au or visit www.bcfm.org.au. Other markets this weekend are the Kyneton Farmers’ Market specialising in the local wines and food. 8am to 1pm, St Paul’s Park, Piper Street, Kyneton. Enquiries 5422 1025.

A. Farro is an Italian whole wheat grain that is commonly found in Tuscan cooking. Although it is very similar to barley it is actually its own variety of ancient grain. It is a quite strong grain that retains a bite to it after cooking and has a nutty flavour. It’s great in stews and soups but also can be cooked and put through a salad. Also you could try cooking faro the same way you would a risotto. Q. How can you smoke foods in a domestic kitchen? A. There is one very easy way to smoke foods like fish or meat in a domestic kitchen. I have used this technique often in a commercial kitchen when we haven’t had a proper smoking oven. Simply have a large oven tray that is at least a couple of inches deep and that will fit a cooling rack inside it. Scatter your smoking chips on the bottom of the tray and place the tray onto some heat. As the bottom of the tray heats up the chips will begin to smoke. Place your fish or meat onto the cooling rack and into the tray then cover tightly with foil. After a minute turn the heat off and let the tray sit for 15–20 minutes. The chips will continue to smoke and flavour your meat or fish, then you can finish roasting or cooking however you like, even in the same tray. This is probably better done outside over a large barbecue as you may set off your smoke alarms. Q. What is Morcilla? A. Morcilla is Spain’s version of the blood pudding or sausage. This is found all over Spain and has slightly different styles. Some use spices and lots of onions and others rice to thicken the sausage. This is delicious as part of a breakfast with scrambled eggs and fresh mint, or with roast pork and apple.

A look at Lennon I

N 1992, John Waters and Stewart D’Arrietta took to the small stage at the Tilbury Hotel, Woolloomooloo, Sydney with their debut production of Looking Through A Glass Onion. What was an initially a one week booking quickly sold out and extended into a six week, sell out season. After a massive 137-date tour in 2010 to 2012, Waters and D’Arrietta are returning with their show in 2014 while gearing up toward launching the production Off Broadway in New York. The tour includes The Capital, Bendigo on Sunday, February 9. “It began its life as a small venue piece with just Stewart and myself on stage at the Tilbury Hotel in Sydney,” John said.

“I made my entrance from a kitchen and climbed over patron’s laps to scramble onto a tiny raised platform in the corner of the room. “The audience and I were inescapably intimate with each other from the very start, and I like that. “Not every venue we play this time around can be exactly like that, but it’s the feeling I want to create – to take the show back to its roots.” Waters said the response to the show has been impressive. “Younger audiences are coming along, some of who were not even born when Lennon and The Beatles were recording,” he said. “It’s a testament to the legacy of the man and his music that still excites and intrigues people to this day.”

The show is not a cut-and-paste biography of Lennon or an emulation of the original recordings. On stage, with shadows from the lighting arrangement fluttering over his face as he explores the essence of the man through song and spoken word. Waters becomes synonymous with Lennon. It’s part concert and part biography, though it doesn’t seek to tell the full story of Lennon’s life. “Rather than to impersonate, I wanted to evoke his honesty, bitter-sweet humour, self criticism and disdain for pretentiousness and pomposity,” Waters said. Looking Through A Glass Onion is on Sunday, 9 February at The Capital Theatre. www.thecapital. com.au 5434 6100.

Chairman of the committee M

UNICIPAL representatives in the form of councillors dominated the Welcome Committee for the officers and sailors of the Great White Fleet. The last 1908 American Fleet Welcome Committee member I will be profiling was the chairman and mayor of Bendigo. John Paul Carolin, like so many others was born elsewhere, in his case Tasmania in 1835. As a young man Mr Carolin came to Victoria and later to Bendigo in the year 1870, prior to that time he had been in Kyneton for some years. Mr Carolin was a merchant and became quite successful, he opened an outlet for his machinery and equipment dealings also in West Melbourne. Keen on promoting the items he was purveying and having the necessary capital to make good political contacts all helped to improve his standing. As with a significant number of the personalities of the committee profiled so far, Mr Carolin could afford to be a councillor. On the retirement in 1886 from council of businessman and investor Alexander Bayne, Mr Carolin was duly elected for Darling Ward. During the following 27 years, Mr Carolin remained unopposed, this said something of the satisfaction that the property owners had with him and his representation. Prior to becoming a councillor in Bendigo he had served in the same capacity with the Kyneton Shire. The primary reason why Mr

Carolin resigned from the council on March 7, 1913 was due to his health at the time. Three years after entering the Bendigo Council, in 1889 he was elected mayor for the first time. He was a man of strong opinions which were the source of considerable feeling at the council table. However, these opinions frequently turned out to be correct. One of the subjects that were constantly raised by Mr Carolin was the defects associated with the Coliban Water System. He argued tenaciously to improve the water purity by protecting the main catchment areas of the reservoirs. Water purity or the lack thereof was brought up with monotonous regularity, until finally the dripping tap had worn away the stone and action was taken. The chief causes of pollution were attended to. His interest in public health was also reflected in his very active and vociferous participation as a member of the Board of Health. One of the legacies that Mr Carolin left was a general belief in the Bendigo tomato growing industry. Tomatoes had been grown in the Bendigo district successfully within a few years of the gold rush having begun. Tomato products were being produced by locals for many decades before Mr Carolin came on the scene. Mr Carolin at the turn of the 20th century promoted tomato growing at White Hills. He was

able to do so through his political contacts with the Minister for Water Supply, an essential ingredient to make a crop productive. Different varieties of tomatoes were imported from the United States as well as Spain. It was Mr Carolin who encouraged the migration of Spanish tomato growers to work the land that he had secured irrigation for. There were well informed people within the community who pointed out that there was local expertise in growing tomatoes and there was

labour aplenty available at the time. One of his chief critics was an Eaglehawk resident who signed himself only with the initials W R C. Market garden and vineyard ploughs in single, two, three, and

Mr Carolin promoted the use of “modern labour saving appliances” such as Champion Steel Reversible Road Rollers, railroad and grading ploughs also genuine gun metal spray pumps with hoses. A business address was available at 191 Collins Street, Melbourne. The writing and publishing of a Cultivator’s Handbook was another way in which Mr Carolin could promote his business.

Hints to make school as easy as ... abc S TARTING school is a major milestone for any child. So promoting positive relationships and experiences is important to long-term development, learning and wellbeing. How your child reacts to starting school will also depend on their personality and how prepared they are for this next big step in their lives. By now they’ll probably be responding to the idea of school in a variety of ways – they might be really excited and looking forward to attending. Or they may be showing signs of not wanting to go and some may experience both reactions depending on how they feel on the day. Most children will experience some change – after all they’ll be learning, playing and interact-

ing with new people and getting used to a new environment – it will take time to settle in. Some things you can do to help your child adjust to school include: Ensure they have a healthy breakfast – this is important for energy to get through the day. Aim to get out of the house on time in a calm, relaxed manner to set up a positive tone for their day. Don’t worry if they are slow or make mistakes with these tasks at first. They will get the hang of it, and it’ll be one less thing you’ll have to do. Make time to talk to your child about their day at school. This will give you a good idea of what they enjoy doing and how they are getting on in their new environment.

Remember, your child’s emotional reaction to going to school may vary a lot, especially during the first few weeks. Develop a bedtime routine so your child can wind down at the end of the day and get a good night’s sleep. Try not to put too many expectations on yourself or your child; if they are happy and enjoying school, that’s a real achievement You know your child best. If you have any questions about how they are settling in at school, contact your child’s teacher so you can talk things through together. You can contact your child’s teacher in person, over the phone or via email, whichever suits you and your situation best.

EXPERT FITTING: At the The Athlete’s Foot Bendigo.

Centre has plenty to offer A

FUN filled and action packed January is scheduled for Lansell Square, helping customers keep children entertained before school resumes. Starting on Tuesday, January 14 children can take part in the Crayola Creative Centre. This fun and interactive “hands on” workshop is suitable for children of all ages. Children can create animated images and 3D drawings as well as colour their own frisbee to take home. The creative centre will be at Lansell Square from January 14 to January 16, from 11am to 2pm daily, and if a creative workshop is not enough, children can also take part in the free karate workshops. It is brought to you by GKR Karate, who will demonstrate the art of karate and hold self-defence workshops for children aged five and older, promoting the importance of fitness. Classes start on Tuesday, January 21 to Friday, January 24, from 11am to 1pm near Kmart. Lansell Square is also open across the Australia Day long weekend, from 11am to 3pm on Australia Day and 11am to 3pm on Monday, January 27. Whether picking up some last minute groceries for the barbecue or taking time out for a coffee break, Lansell Square has customers’ shopping needs covered in the one convenient location. In February, the next stage of Lansell Square’s $38 million expansion and refurbishment works will start. Customers are assured that they will still have convenient access to all shops and car parking facilities during the re-development.

Stepping in the right direction for year round comfor t I LL-FITTING shoes can cause foot ailments so it’s important children wear correctly fitted shoes. The Athlete’s Foot Bendigo stocks a range of school shoes from Ascent and Clarks as well as sports shoes from Nike, Asics, New Balance, Brooks and more. Here are some helpful hints from staff at The Athlete’s Foot to ensure your child gets correctly-fitted sports shoes and school shoes. The best time to shop for new shoes is after playtime or at the end of the day when the foot tends to be more swollen. Trying on a new shoe,

with their school socks while the foot is swollen will ensure the best fit for your child throughout the day. Have your child try on both shoes and walk around in them to ensure comfort. The shoe should fit so that

for their children that are a size or two larger than the proper measure, thinking that kids will grow into them. But it is unlikely that a child’s foot will grow to fit the shoes before wearing the shoes out.

Your child’s shoes should be comfortable the first time they try them on the heel does not slide up and down. Also, since one foot is usually longer than the other, be sure to fit the shoe to the larger foot. Many parents buy shoes

Too large a shoe can lead to slips, trips or falls, and can be just as bad as wearing too small a shoe. When fitting your child’s foot, determine how much toe room they should have

in the shoe by leaving space that is equal to the width of your child’s thumb – not your thumb – between the child’s longest toe and the end of the shoe while they are standing. Keep in mind that the longest toe isn’t always the big toe. Having to break-in a pair of shoes is a myth. Your child’s shoes should be comfortable the first time they try them on. The staff at The Athlete’s Foot Bendigo are highly trained and understand the importance of a good fit. The Athlete’s Foot Bendigo, situated in the Hargreaves Mall, phone 5441 8064.

GOTCHA: It’s not only trout that take a liking to a well presented fly as this beautiful marked Murray cod caught by Damien Keegan demonstrates.

Plenty of choices for keen fishers’ gift selection

T

HE start of a New Year is an opportunity to look back on the previous 12 months and forward to the coming year. Christmas is over again and no doubt fishermen have had gifts of equipment and books related to fishing among their Christmas presents. I expect that when there is a fisher in the family, it is easy to think of a gift. There is also a wide range of prices to fit a budget. Last year for me was a very quiet year in terms of fish caught. Trips to local waters and Tasmania resulted in fewer than usual fish caught. However, there were some highlights. An opportunity to fish the hallowed River Test, in England, resulted in a few good-sized trout. The visit also encouraged me to find out more of the history of this water and also the famous fishermen who fished this river. GEM Skues and FM Halford both wrote of their experiences on the River Test and of the different

FLY FISHING

JOE SINGE techniques they used to catch trout. These books: Skues on Trout and The Dry Fly Man’s Handbook are regarded as classics and Halford became known as the “father” of dry fly fishing. I was encouraged to read the writings of Skues and Halford. This of course

Wendouree provided good sport for fly fishers. Barkers Creek Reservoir received trout stockings under the Drought Recovery Program but seems to be recovering a bit slower than some of the other reservoirs. There were some trout of about 500g caught at Barkers Creek Reservoir in spring, but this action has slowed over summer. Autumn is often a good time to fish

Other species such as redfin will take a wet fly made my list for Santa, easy. Although perhaps a little difficult to fill. Our local reservoirs received some good stockings of trout from the excellent Drought Recovery Program, with trout stocked into many waters at the end of 2011. Reports of good catches came from the lakes in the Ballarat and Daylesford areas in 2013. Reservoirs such as Newlyn, Hepburn Lagoon, Tullaroop Reservoir and Lake

Barkers Creek Reservoir and who knows, perhaps it will be in 2014 that good fishing returns. I usually concentrate on trout fishing in this report. But that is not to say that flyfishing is exclusively used to catch trout. Other species such as redfin will take a wet fly. Bendigo and District Fly Fishers president Damien Keegan, has been having good success – catching Murray cod in the Loddon River on flies.

HANKS to the effort of the Bendigo Field and Game and the Department of Environment and Primary Industry’s Fisheries division, Epppalock’s fishing future took a step closer to reaching its full potential, with another 22,500 Murray cod released earlier this week. Bendigo Field and Game has funded the release of an additional 2500 advanced cod fingerlings to help supplement DEPI’s liberation of 20,000 cod fingerlings as part of an annual planned stocking program of Murray cod and golden perch. “These additional cod were funded through our conservation program instigated back in the 1990s, but with the onset of the drought our efforts lapsed due to lack of suitable habitat,” Bendigo Field and Game’s Danny Ryan said. It is expected that most of these stocked cod will be of catchable size within four to five years and complement the additional 70,000 golden perch to be released in Eppalock during 2014. There was no need to travel far to get among the fish this Christmas period with Eppalock still fishing well. Better sized redfin can be found in the deeper water (10+ metres) falling to a variety of lures and bait. Golden perch captures are also becoming more common to jigged yabbies among the standing timber. Just remember to move on from tree to tree, spending no more than 10 or 15 minutes at each location. This way you will also cover more territory increasing

Spirit coach still firm

By JOEL PETERSON

AFTER what was the team’s most complete performance of the season, the Bendigo Spirit cannot afford to be complacent heading into a clash with bottom side West Coast on Saturday night, according to coach Bernie Harrower. Bendigo came off a hard fought win over Canberra last Friday night to demolish Melbourne 83-49, dominating every facet of the game. “I thought (Saturday night) was our most complete performance, in terms of what we did offensively and defensively,” Harrower said. “After flying back after a tough game against Canberra, the effort from the girls was exactly where I wanted it to be which was pleasing.” West Coast have had their fair share of beatings this season as the club deals with an injury ravaged and

youthful roster. But Harrower will not accept a lack of effort from his side. “That’s what we have spoken about at training this week, making sure we still give the necessary effort in these type of games because we have to still play the three other

“That’s been a real strength, to get contributions out of our bench players. They have all been fantastic for us recently,” Harrower said. “They give us that spark and energy when we need it, and allow us to not go to our bench and lose something, but often we gain a different

This is in the business part of the year and this is when you need to be at your best top-four teams yet,” he said. “We’ve stepped up our training and our fitness, because this is in the business part of the year and this is when you need to be at your best.” Harrower will likely have the option of turning to his bench against last-placed West Coast, who have proved more than capable of stepping in and making a contribution.

look when they come on. “It’s great as a coach to know that all the players on your bench are ready to step in when needed and make that kind of contribution that is so vital.” On Sunday, Gabe Richards, Tessa Lavey, Kelly Wilson and Elyse Penaluna will leave to attend a four day Australian Opals camp at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra.

Harrower says it is positive to have players involved in the camp, as they get the opportunity to learn from and go up against the best players in the competition. “It’s always good to have girls involved in that kind of thing and get a sense of what the international level is all about,” he said. “To have four players involved speaks about the strength of the team we have here.” Saturday night’s game against West Coast at Bendigo Stadium tips off at 7.30pm. The Spirit is also holding a late luncheon event at Bendigo Stadium on Friday, January 24 ahead of its game against Logan. The event will feature North Melbourne superstar Brent Harvey as a guest speaker, with more information available through the club on 0427 997 675.

City hosts young guns NEARLY 150 of Australia’s best young cricketers converged on Bendigo this week for the School Sports Australia Under-12 championships. Six teams in both girls and boys competitions battled it out over five rounds at grounds around the city, with the winners in each pool determined at the end of play on Friday.

EVCA – Division 1

Panthers on Tigers’ tail EARLY season surprise packet Marong will be out to keep their run of form going on Saturday against Mandurang at Pearce Reserve, when Emu Valley Cricket Association play gets under way with a round of one day matches. The Panthers currently sit second on the table behind United, and a game clear of third placed West Bendigo. Led by Jeremy Ross (313 runs at 52.17), the Panthers have so far made up for the disappointment of narrowly missing a finals berth, and are within striking distance of the Tigers’ spot at the top. Mandurang on the other hand are two wins outside the five, and will be looking to make up some ground for a chance to make it into its third consecutive grand final. JG Edwards Oval will host what could be the match of the round, with first-placed United taking on Emu Creek, who sit in fourth position. United’s only loss of the season came at the hands of the Emus in round three, with the Tigers keen to regain the ascendancy and hold on to top spot. An even bowling performance was the key to Emu Creek’s win earlier in the season, and they will need a similar feat again to avoid losing a third straight match. At Club Court, Sedgwick host Maiden Gully in a battle of the league’s bottom two sides. Maiden Gully have proved competitive in games where their top order can give them a boost, with the Rams needing to strike early to give themselves a chance to move a game clear of the Gully. In round eight’s other fixtures, Axe Creek battle West Bendigo at Champions IGA Oval and Golden Gully host Spring Gully.

Salisbery joins Braves

THE Bendigo Bank Braves have completed their import signings for the 2014 South East Australian Basketball League season, with former Temple Owls standout Dustin Salisbery committing to the team. Salisbery has spent time in the NBA with the Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Clippers, and is coming off a recent stint with the Delaware 76ers of the NBA’s development league. The 196cm shooting guard played four years at Temple University, scoring 16.4 points per game in his senior season in 2007. The 29-year-old Salisbery played 12 games with Delaware in the D-League this season, scoring 8.5 points per game in 20.5 minutes. He has also played professionally in France, Germany, Greece, Romania, Mexico, and in the summer league for the NBA based Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Clippers. The club hopes that Salisbery will complement its other import, forward Zack Atkinson, and help the push for a championship that has so far eluded coach Ben Harvey. “Dustin is the type of player we have been missing in the past few seasons,” Harvey said. “He is a very versatile player, he is a great defender, rebounder and scorer.” The Braves’ 2014 SEABL campaign begins on Saturday, March 22 against Brisbane at Bendigo Stadium.

Tour focus for Haig

FAST TRACK: Jack Haig. Photo: CYCLING AUSTRALIA

By

JOEL PETERSON

FRESH off a season in which he exploded onto the Australian road cycling scene, Bendigo’s Jack Haig is preparing for bigger and better things in season 2014. Last year’s Subaru Australia National Road Series champion will make his UCI

ProTour debut at next week’s Santos Tour Down Under, and is hoping to compete in the Commonwealth Games on his mountain bike. “It was good to have a break because last year was so busy, but I’m really looking forward to the Tour Down Under,” he said. “It will be great to get out there against some of the world’s best and really challenge myself.” “Hopefully I can get to the games on the mountain bike, I’d love to do something big on it, but it is getting harder to balance the mountain bike and road stuff.” For now, however, his sights are firmly set on this weekend’s Cycling Australia National Road Championships in Ballarat. Haig finished sixth in Wednesday’s 28 kilometre individual time trial, with Jordan Kerby narrowly defeating Harry Carpenter by 0.2 seconds, but is setting his sights on Saturday’s road race. “The course is ideal for me, and I think it will come down to those last two or three laps over the hill and who has got the most energy,” he said. “It will be either who has got enough energy to create a gap on

the climb, or ride away on the descent which would be my ideal tactic because if I take people to the line I’m likely to be outsprinted.” Haig is among 14 Bendigobased riders competing this weekend with Zak Dempster, Peta Mullens and Chris Hamilton also taking red-hot form into this weekend after strong performances in last weekend’s Michelton Wines Bay Cycling Classic series. Dempster will be joined by 2012 Tour of Tasmania winner Lachlan Norris, 2009 Australian road race champion Darren Lapthorne, and Drapac teammate Robbie Hucker in the 183.6km Men’s road race. Mullens, Kate Finegan and Beth Duryea will form the Bendigo contingent in the 106km Women’s road race on Saturday, beginning at 1.30pm. Local young guns Sam Crome, Jason Lowndes, Aidan Bowe, Tasman Nankervis and Robbie Oakenfull will join Haig and Hamilton in the 123.6km Under-23 Men’s road race on Saturday from 9am. Australia’s biggest names in cycling will be competing during the Elite Men’s road race including Cadel Evans, defending champion Simon Gerrans and Richie Porte. The Elite Men’s road race will be broadcast live on SBS on Sunday.
