HEAT IS ON

BY JOEL PETERSON

BENDIGO is on track for its hottest summer on record. A number of weather records have been broken since December, and more are likely to tumble. The city has sweltered through 13 days in which the temperature has reached or exceeded 40ºC, shattering the previous record of nine 40-plus days during the summer of 2008-09.

■

Temperature records set to fall

Four of this summer’s 40-plus days came between January 14 and 17, including Bendigo’s second hottest day on record of 43.8ºC on January 14. The city’s record for the hottest average summer maximum temperature is also set to tumble, with

the mercury for the rest of February only needing to average 26ºC each day to beat the all-time summer maximum average record of 30.6ºC, set during 2001-02. At the time of going to print the city’s average maximum temperature was 37.1ºC in February,

and the Bureau of Meteorology climatologist Alex Evans says it looks like the record will fall. “The current summer-to-date daily maximum temperatures average is 31.6ºC at Bendigo,” Mr Evans said. “There is the chance that the

summer record of 30.6°C will be broken, even with daily temperatures for the remainder of February two degrees below average,” he said. January was also the city’s second hottest on record, with the average maximum temperature of 32.6ºC just shading the record mark of 32.9ºC set in 2009.

BENDIGO is reaping the benefits after sustained growth and consumer confidence in the property market. According to RP Data, Greater Bendigo’s median house value rose 3.2 on the year to November 2013. Bendigo is experiencing a “solid rise� in median house values according to RP Data Victorian housing market specialist Robert Larocca. “There is continuous solid growth in the city and it shows suburbs with greater [median value] increases such as Kennington, and Strathdale,� he said. “The data reflects the values of properties for home owners.� Kennington experienced the city’s highest median house value increase at 9.4 per cent on the year to November. Strathdale experienced an 8.6 per cent median value house increase while Junortoun held an 8.4 per cent median value increase and the highest suburb price at $496,391. Strathfieldsaye secured fourth with a 6.6 per cent change, followed by Epsom at 6.4 per cent. Mr Larocca noted the importance of property ownership for a decade or more to ensure a greater profit on sale. “In places likes Bendigo, there is a trend to hold onto properties

GROWTH AREA: Bendigo Marketplace is in line to expand. and the trend is not to see large short-term growth figures. The trend is more moderate to long term growth which is much better for home owners,� he said. “The longer a person has a property the better the return.� BENDIGO Marketplace is set to grow following its $165 million sale last year. Property fund managers ISPT

bought the multi-million dollar central CBD complex, iceworks and adjoining properties. ISPT chief executive officer Daryl Browning said the complex was an excellent fit with their current properties. “Bendigo Marketplace is a strategic Victorian sub-regional retail holding, a strong fit for our retail portfolio and in line with our investment strategy,� he said. ISPT have not ruled out future

expansion plans but no immediate changes are expected. Safeway and Big W are the two major retailers holding the fort at the centre alongside 83 specialty stores. The shopping complex went up for sale in October last year before Private Property Syndicate sold the property in December. The property was settled this month from Colonial First Estate PPS fund.

Tenders go outside city

SPECIAL REPORT By ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGO businesses have been urged to become more competitive, with less than 30 per cent of Greater Bendigo council’s public tenders going to locals. Since it came to office in November, 2012, the current council has approved $12.26 million of public tenders for works and services. Almost $9m of this has been awarded to companies outside the council area. Those figures do not include contracts entered into under the Schedule of Rates clause, which is an unspecified amount for a delivery of services over time. Of that $12.26m, local businesses did not bid for $7.74m worth of the contracts. However, there were some clear examples where local businesses could have supplied the service. Council’s new $9m library includes a separate tender for the supply of its furniture. Council spent $365,209 on the new furniture, none of it from local businesses. Council also awarded a $225,000-a-year contract to a Sommerton company for the cleaning of public toilets and barbecues. It gave a $280,780 tender to an Ardeer company for the design and construction of a footbridge over the Campaspe River at Axedale. A Geelong company was awarded a $424,000 contract for the design and construction of a footbridge over the Mount Ida Creek. About $3.5 million of the city’s road surfacing and construction projects were also given to compa-

nies outside Bendigo. Non-Bendigo consulting companies have also won tenders valued at more than $500,000 for plans and strategies. Council Contract and Project Co-ordination manager Richard Morrison said defended the tender process. “As required by law, we run a fair and competitive tender process that looks at a number of factors, including the quality of tender bids, capacity to deliver, local content and price,” he said. “In doing so, we always strive to achieve true value for our ratepayers and this does not mean that the lowest price always wins. “In many cases, when contracts are awarded to businesses outside our region, they employ locallybased staff or engage local sub-contractors to do the work.” He said council had budgeted to spend $110m in the 2013-14 fi-

nancial year on goods services and capital works, most of which will be spent locally. Bendigo Business Council deputy chairman and Keech Australia chief executive officer Herbert Hermans said council should only buy local if it was the best choice. “As businesses in Bendigo, we need to earn our stripes,” he said. “You can’t say someone should buy from X because of Y.” Mr Hermans said it was an opportunity for local businesses to improve and become competitive internationally. “The reason we need to buy from locals is not because they are just down the road, but because they are equal to other places,” he said. “We have to compete against everybody. That goes for the local corner store as well. “If we can position ourselves to be globally competitive then we will have a very successful Bendigo.”

Zoning row may put skids under Fortuna development By CHRISTINE McGINN

FORTUNA’s opening may be delayed by up to two years if a zoning dispute cannot be quickly resolved. Greater Bendigo council was forced to agree to put the application to an independent panel this week, after objectors raised concerns about traffic, noise and future development. But Fortuna’s owner Paul Banks said he was confident the issues would be resolved by the end of tomorrow. “Council have been bloody good, they had no choice because of the submission,” he said. “But I reckon in the next 24 hours it will be squashed.”

Mr Banks said he had spoken to a leading objector and believed there was no longer a need for an independent panel. “I am confident it won’t be going to a panel hearing and will get the stamp to go the Minister’s office,” he said. Despite being hopeful, Mr Banks said if it did reach the panel, he would incur significant additional costs. “If it takes a long time to pursue it could set me back two years and the worst case scenario is it would cost $1.2 million,” he said. The cost factors in time for a panel hearing, a Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal ruling, an alternative scenario and also the

application’s visit to the planning minister. Yet Rodney Purtill, representing six other objectors, said there were concerns about residents’ rights to object to future development under the Comprehensive Development Zone proposed for the villa.

the decisions. But Mr Banks said the future concerns were about planning while he was still needing to define the zoning. “This is not, right now, about

open concerts and what is going to be there. It is about to get it rezoned. There is no point doing things and not getting approval for them,” he said. “The reason I do not sell Fortuna is that I don’t trust what they [other developers] will do.” A Heritage Overlay blankets the site, ensuring any change to the building would need to be approved by Heritage Victoria. Mr Banks said there was one shareholder from the Western district who was also contributing funds to the property. He also denied claims he was aligned with Mick Gatto and remains confident community support will prevail.

Call to put people first By ANTHONY RADFORD

SPRING Gully residents fear an old tree, which has dropped two significant limbs in the past year, will soon cause a death. And they fear Greater Bendigo council is putting trees before people. With the recent Rosalind Park tragedy clearly in their minds, residents of Spring Hill Drive fear for the safety of their children. A large branch dropped from the tree in February last year, severely damaging a fence and a shed, narrowly missing a children’s cubby house. Last week it happened again, with a smaller branch falling across the same two backyards. One resident, a mother of two, said it was a miracle her children were not outside when the first branch fell last year. “It was only because my husband got out of hospital that day that we were not outside together, as we do at that time to water the garden,” she said. She said Greater Bendigo staff inspected the tree at the time and deemed it safe. “The branch was removed later by a small crane, and a month later a few smaller branches were also removed,” she said. “Many smaller branches have fallen

from this tree to my yard since then, which I have not reported to council as I was made to feel like a nuisance when I reported the branch in February. “I did not sleep last night and cannot stop crying with relief that, once again, we were not outside when it fell. “My six year old, who is aware of the incident in Rosalind Park, was almost hysterical, as they were playing in the sun room at the back of the house when the latest branch came down. “She said: ‘Mummy, I don’t want to die, is it going to land on the house’ and ‘can you cut the tree down’. “I had to convince my little one to get her to bed that she was safe in her own home, but in all honesty I don’t believe it myself.” About 200 nearby residents have signed a petition calling for the tree to be cut down. Cr Elise Chapman failed in her bid to have the tree discussed at Wednesday night’s council meting. At an earlier meeting, council staff told councillors the tree had been inspected and had been listed for further inspection higher up early next week. “Once this further inspection has been completed, it is highly likely some maintenance will be required to ensure our

yET another large tree branch has fallen over a path in a public path in Bendigo. Craig Hunter was walking his dog around the Crook Street Park in Strathdale on Monday evening, when a native tree branch fell seconds after he had walked under it. “It went off like a gun,” he said. “It was a pretty big limb.” The branch snapped a treated pine fence post in half. “We had travelled under it about 10 seconds earlier. It is a bit of a scare. “It was so loud is sounded like a bomb.” The latest incident came after a native tree branch fell across a path at Lake Weeroona on Sunday morning. Patiya May Schrieber was killed last December when a eucalypt tree branch fell on her and her mother, Kristy Thomson, in Rosalind Park. Ms Thomson suffered spinal and head injuries in the accident.

failures of trees across the municipality is quite high, which is not unusual, and this does not support the theory that a tree is unsafe and should subsequently be removed.”

Temperatures aim high From Page 1 Mr Evans said that the recurrence of heat events were partly due to the lack of rainfall over inland Australia, which has allowed hot air to circulate around the country. “The lack of rainfall over the inland east and centre of Australia means that these areas are very dry, a situation which allows hot air to hang around much longer as it circulates around the country, and this has played some part in the recurrence of heat events this summer.â€? The weather has had wide-ranging effects on Bendigo, including setting records for water consumption, according to Coliban Water figures. An average of 48.86 megalitres of water per day came from the Bendigo Water Treatment Plant during January of 2013, with that figure rising to more than 52 megalitres per day in January of this year. There were also 10 days

Bendigo Health also saw an increase in demand for its services, with patient numbers increasing during

the January heatwave, and a number of cases heat related. With every day between January 11 and 18 topping 35ºC, Bendigo Health’s Nathan Bushby told the Weekly during the heatwave the hospital’s workload had increased by around 50 per cent. The bureau is forecasting temperatures to be around average through until April, with no further significant heat events on the way.

BENDIGO’S oldest mortuary will be open to the public for the centenary of the worst mining disaster in the history of the local Goldfields.

ic photographs, memorabilia and medical instruments from their historic collection. “Among the items we have discovered is a German made brass bronchoscope, which is a very old surgical instrument, about 50 centimetres long,� Ms Monro said. “The doctor inserted the rigid tube into a patient’s airways, through the mouth, to look for abnormalities such as foreign bodies, bleed-

ing, tumours, or inflammation. “This instrument is significant as it was probably used at the turn of the century to diagnose miners phthisis, a terminal lung disease common in miners exposed to underground dust.â€? The exhibit in the Old Mortuary in Stewart Street focuses on the time of the disaster and will be open to the public on Sunday, May 4 from 2pm to 4pm.

Shamrock Hotel loses out on gaming plan

GRAND PLAN: Greater Bendigo council fails to support plans for more pokies.

No pay out for pokie gamble By CHRISTINE McGINN

THE Shamrock Hotel has failed to gain council support for the installation of 20 more gaming machines. Greater Bendigo council failed to support the move at its meeting this week. The Shamrock owner Jim Hogan applied to the Victorian Commission on Gambling Regulation to increase the current 45 pokies machines to 65. Locals were asked to complete an online survey about the application with 86.4 per cent opposed to the application. “The majority of respondents don’t want this at the Shamrock Hotel and believe it would have a detrimental impact on the on the wellbeing of residents,� Cr Rod Campbell said. “There are already some signs of social impact

in that area that could be exacerbated. Gambling is a real problem, why should we add to that?� The Weekly revealed in November, $9 million dollar plans to create a the city’s first five star accommodation. Cr Rod Fyffe said the city needed to make sure it

But council deemed the social and economic impacts on the community to be “detrimental to the municipality�. The application is also not supported under council’s Gaming Policy, prohibiting extra machines in the CBD. “The money spent in

The majority of respondents don’t want this at the Shamrock Hotel was under the pokies machines quota for the municipality. Yet, Mr Hogan believes the additional pokies machines are crucial to the multi-million dollar development’s success. Cr Helen Leach said people had a “democratic right to gamble� if they wanted.

other sectors such as retail trade, food services and arts and recreational services would create more direct local jobs, and have considerable flow on benefits,� the council report stated. Council will send its economic and social impact submission to the VCGR for consideration.

HIGH ART: Mark Schaller has a working brief to make the tram look like a work in progress. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

New heights for tram artist A MULTI-FACETED artist has turned his skills to trams. Mark Schaller has been named as the artist namesake for Bendigo’s Art Series Studio hotel, as part of the new hospital redevelopment and was invited to add his art to a Bendigo tram. Mr Schaller works fluently across a variety of art forms including sculpture, ceramics, painting, and now trams. “For the interior I have had to defy gravity, keeping the paint from falling. I am working the other way up,� he said. “The idea is to make the interior like an art studio in

action, a work in progress so to speak. “I am able to make as much mess as I like.� The interior will show scenes and buildings of Bendigo drawn in charcoal and a frieze. “I will be drawing the stops on the line, and as it’s a work in progress I can add to it if I need to in the future,� Mr Schaller said. The exterior is a different matter, with Mr Schaller’s work being translated into large stickers. “The centre panel is of a reclining nude, with scenes from a night garden so nature

is the theme,� he said. “I am very happy to have this marvellous W-Class tram as a canvas for the reproduction of my work.� The tram will be on the circuit for three years following its transformation. Those on board will have a taster of the Art Series Hotel Group. Reflecting an artist’s studio, the interior will also be fitted out with a day bed, armchairs and stacked suitcases as chairs and coat hangers as holders. “It’s a compliment to have my work glorified like this,� Mr Schaller said. - Steve Kendall

In a Victorian first, native freshwater catfish have been stocked into Crusoe Reservoir near Bendigo. native Fish Australia Wimmera had the 500 fish stocked into the reservoir to improve recreational fishing opportunities and rebuild the catfish population. “This is the first time native catfish have been stocked into Victorian waters,” Member for northern Victoria Region Damian Drum said.

“The Victorian Government provided funding from the Recreational Fishing Grants Program to nFA Wimmera. “The grants program uses the proceeds from recreational fishing licence fees to improve fishing opportunities across the state, so the anglers’ fees are being put directly back into the pastime they enjoy.” Mr Drum said the stocking was part of the first in-

stallment of catfish fingerlings from the project. nFA Wimmera’s Bruce McInnes said the stockings were real progress towards developing new fisheries for catfish outside the Wimmera. “Our members are looking forward to monitoring catfish growth and assisting fisheries managers to determine when angling for catfish might be permitted in these two lakes,” he said.

GRAND IDEA: The former Bendigo Mining Exchange building is in line for redevelopment if sold.

Mining for change By CHRISTINE McGINN

THE former Bendigo Mining Exchange building is set to hit the property market by April. Greater Bendigo councillors agreed to sell part of the Beehive Building in Pall Mall to the private sector for restoration and reuse. Williams Boag Architects have drawn plans to showcase the potential development, enabling it to become one of Bendigo’s most visited retail precincts. Councillors unanimously agreed that the redevelopment and sale of the BME was integral to the process. “What we are creating here is a process, it’s not going to happen over night. For all of us, this is a very exciting piece of work being done,� Cr Peter Cox said. “Pall Mall is very significant to all visitors to Bendigo and to put the redeveloped former BME in that is very, very exciting. “Let’s get it moving, occupied and part of the CBD.� Built in 1872, the BME is the oldest known purpose built stock exchange in Australia. Cr Rod Campbell agreed it was a significant place in the city and supported its redevelopment. “It will be a very special restoration and I can’t wait for time to go by to see it,� he said. The sale of the BME will be conducted via an Expression of Interest process requiring the purchaser to retain the heritage building’s integrity and its importance to Bendigo. Cr Rod Fyffe said “checks and balances� were in place to ensure the most fitting person bought the property. Cr Elise Chapman agreed, noting

The building was designed by architect Charles Webb, who designed the similarly detailed Royal Arcade in Melbourne. Council bought the building in December, 1999 with the state governments’ financial support, condi-

tional that the city took a stewardship role with the building. For 14 years, council has been responsible for undertaking essential repairs to prepare it to be “investment ready�. The BME is thought to become one of Bendigo’s most treasured and visited heritage buildings once restored.

Film a fundraiser

GEORGE Clooney directs and stars in The Monuments Men, a film which tells of a band of men specifically trained to rescue art. The art in question has been stolen by Germany during its occupation of Europe, and it’s the Monuments Men who are tasked with getting it back. The combined Rotary Clubs of Bendigo will be using this film as a fundraiser as part of their program of helping to eradicate polio. The film screens on Wednesday, February 19 at

6.45pm at the Bendigo Cinemas in Queen Street. The cost is $20 per person, but the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is kicking in a bonus $10 to make the total contribution to the Rotary polio program of $30 per person. Tickets are available from the Central Deborah Mine or by calling 5443 8255. Rotary Bendigo South’s Matt Scott said everyone is welcome to attend. “It’s a great initiative and will benefit an excellent Rotary program,” he said.

Axe falls on council’s plantation investment price

7 Murphy St, Bendigo Ph 5441 6041

Timber values fall THE value of Greater Bendigo council’s tree plantations has plummeted. Council has three native plantation sites, 242 hectares at Huntly, 199ha at Knowsley and 16ha at Long Gully. The value of the trees fell dramatically in the 2012-13 financial year, dropping by almost 95 per cent. In 2012 the trees were valued at $806,000. A year later, they were worth only $43,000. Council Parks and Natural Reserves manager Simon Harrison put

the losses down to a dry year and the low price of timber. “The reduction of the overall value was primarily at the Huntly site, where weather conditions had a negative im-

impacted upon by seasonal weather conditions, especially at Huntly. “The valuation was based on the site receiving no income and in 201314 income will be generated from the sites due to

On Sunday, a traditional Chinese lantern festival will begin the year with a wooden horse surrounded by beautiful feature lanterns. The Bendigo Chinese Association’s Lion Teams and Plum Blossom Dancers will also be putting on a show. “Chinese New Year is considered the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays and we have chosen to celebrate it with a traditional Chinese lantern festival,� Bendigo Joss House Temple Supervisor Darren Wright said. “The lanterns have been specially decorated by children from the Bendigo Early Learning Centre and will look quite spectacular against the backdrop of the red walls of the Joss House.� Traditionally a visit to a Joss House during Chinese New Year is a special event that involves presenting food and donations to the gods and there is also plenty of incense burnt. Bendigo Joss House Temple tours and tea tasting will also be available. The festivities will take place from 6.30pm, gold coin donations are welcome. Details from www.bendigojosshouse.com

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, February 14, 2014

The return of St Mary’s A PHOENIX has risen from the ashes in Kangaroo Flat. The new St Mary’s Anglican Church will be opened this evening at a special service held by the Bishop of Bendigo the Right Reverend Andrew Curnow. The $2 million building now comprises a church, various meeting rooms, offices, kitchens and toilet amenities. The new complex also includes a covered vehicle entrance and sealed parking for 32 cars. The new building replaces the historic Gothic-style church of St Mary’s which was burnt in an arson attack in December, 2008. The University of the Third Age will occupy a section of the building with Castlemaine firm Mount Alexander funerals opening a Bendigo office in the building. Landscaping at the High Street complex will be completed in the cooler months. The Anglican Parish of Kangaroo Flat is financing the project from a variety of sources including insurance, funds from the parish and Bendigo and money raised through a $250,000 appeal which has so far raised $145,000. MAIN: The Reverend Bryn Jones at the new church and INSET: St Mary’s on fire in December 2008.

KANGAROO FLAT ROAD WORK WILL CAUSE DELAYS ROAD resurfacing works will begin on a section of the Calder Highway near Kangaroo Flat early next week. The works replace sections of deteriorated parts of the highway’s surface with new asphalt surfaces and linemarking along a 1.4 km section of the highway between Lansell Street and Oak Street, Kangaroo Flat. Works will start on Monday between 6.30am and 4pm each day and are planned to be completed by Friday, February 21 (weather permitting). Traffic will be down to one lane in both directions during the works.

GROWING VEGIES AT HOME LOCALS will don green thumbs as council releases a new free booklet to help grow vegies at home. Greater Bendigo mayor Barry Lyons said the Home Grown booklet was a practical guide to growing your own fresh food. Packed full of information and advice about planning, maintenance, garden health and harvesting, the booklet is set to stir food envy. “We have produced Home Grown to encourage residents to embrace this great past time and save some money along the way.” The book is available at the council offices or online at www.bendigo. vic.gov.au.

New home for music THE Bendigo South East College Theatre will be alive with the sound of music in May and June when the eisteddfod returns. The 89th Annual Bendigo Competitions Eisteddfod will be held at the college in Ellis Street, Bendigo. The competitions society and the secondary college will be working towards enhancing this annual event on the Bendigo arts calendar. “The new theatre provides excellent acoustics for all the instrumental and vocal events with the added bonus of a multitude of preparation and warmup spaces for competitors,” music co-ordinator David Castles said. Society president and dance co-ordinator Fay Thomas said the new theatre provides a “true theatre” experience for performers. “In the future, teachers will be able to utilise all aspects of the theatre including lighting which will enhance performanc-

A DECADE ago, the Bendigo Weekly ran a series looking at the city’s manufacturing and mining sector. Called Made in Bendigo, it showcased the innovation, diversity and quality of the highly successful sectors. With the Weekly revealing last month Bendigo’s Gross Regional Product was outgrowing the rest of the state, we thought we would revisit the sector and show locals the gems we have. The sectors contribute almost $3 billion to Bendigo’s annual economic output

HANDS ON: Keech Australia has grown considerably in its 80 year history. Photo: REBECCA BARNES

KEECH Australia was established 80 years ago in Sydney, as a jobbing foundry, employing around a dozen workers. According to chief executive officer Herbert Hermens the company progressed well for years, manufacturing mainly small hand tools. “They worked according to well-established, proven methodology, which was all well and good, but the world changes,” he said. Initial change for Keech came in the mid 1990s, when the value of the land occupied by the foundry increased out of all proportion to its use. This, and environmental factors, led to the decision to move to Bendigo. But the real change came for Keech Australia with the Global Financial Crisis. “We were always able to compete in our niche markets from Bendigo, but after the GFC we realised we had to compete against the rest of the world, and the best of the world,” Mr Hermens said. So change came in every

aspect of the business, and with it the need to invest heavily in research and development, innovation and new technology. “Innovation must be part of the being of the company, it must be involved in how you do things, how you think, part of the supply line, management, communications, everything,” Mr Hermens said. “Turning any process around takes time and involves a massive leap of faith and new thinking by the owners and everyone

$3.5 million on improved technology for its second foundry. Over the next two years an additional up to $15m will be expended on the original foundry to incorporate clean technology and lean manufacturing that involves recycling and more resource efficient production. When the company moved to Bendigo in the mid 1990s it was employing about 40 workers. The figure today is about 150, peaking at 200,

It’s that kind of support that sets Bendigo apart as a place to do business who works here. “But I think we are headed in the right direction. “We are already in a new world marketplace and as a company we embrace that concept. “If we come through this downturn, to be here in good shape when things recover, we will have planned well for the future.” The company currently spends seven per cent of its revenue stream annually on research and development, and has already spent

and Keech has diversified its business to add new divisions “We were receiving massive incentives to go to other states at the time we chose to come here,” explains Mr Hermens. “What decided us was the hands-on attitude of the Council and its Economic Development Unit. We went to look at an existing foundry, and they were right there beside us. “It’s that kind of support that sets Bendigo apart as a place to do business.”

A cure for all ills

WARM WEAR: Patti Cotton, Doug Lougoon and Carol McCooke.

Woolies welcomed COMMUNITY groups came together to sort and pack knitted jumpers and rugs to be sent to the children of East Timor. Project co-ordinator Patricia Cotton has been involved with the program for four years. “It’s a great opportunity for the members of Rotary Club of Bendigo Sandhurst, Friends of Bendigo Art Gallery and Radius

Disability Services to come together again for the children of East Timor,” she said. “The social connections that have been developed since the project started are wonderful.” The Rotary international project has now expanded with 12,000 items sent in 2013 and over 300 knitters across northern Victoria and southern New South Wales.

LOOkING through the crude dental instruments currently on display at the Post Office Gallery reminded me of an apocryphal story told in our family about a visit my grandmother made to the dentist. As a 16 year old girl, circa,1906, nothing but the excruciating pain of a toothache could have driven little Annie Schumacher to the dentist. Perhaps she had heard the terrible story of 14 year old Albert Vince who in 1896 went to see a Mr Percy Mole. After Albert was given chloroform, Mr Mole extracted eight teeth. The operation was a success but the patient, as they say, died. But back to my grandmother, a tiny thing, with long fair hair she was already quivering and crying while sitting in the dentist’s crowded waiting room. Finally her name was called and Annie went in to face the music. Still crying, she sat in the chair and looked around at the terrifying instruments. The dentist still hadn’t touched her as yet but Annie started screaming and screaming and screaming. She then ran out of the dentist’s rooms as fast as she could go. To the dentist’s disgust, the rest of his patients ran after her. Aside from dentistry, the exhibition covers the history of the hospital, the quacks and doctors, the pharmacists, the nurses, the ex-

This is very much a social history reflected in the displays of records, instruments, photographs, textbooks and a variety of paraphernalia. According to local historian Carol Holsworth, the Chinese were initially treated with suspicion and were forbidden to treat European patients. It wasn’t until 1925 that under the Pharmaceutical Chemists Bill, that the Chinese were able to practise as Herbalists or Herbal Practitioners. Not that many of the miners

were going to worry about government regulations. Early doctors on the goldfields usually only hung-up their shingles after realising that their chances of getting rich on the goldfields were slim. Instead these doctors often improvised instruments and practised in primitive conditions, where overcrowding, lack of water and poor sanitary conditions were rife. Special talks and tours are associated with the exhibition which was curated by Clare Needham. A Cure for all ills: Medicine in Bendigo will continue until August 10.

Scots have a grand day out

PIPES: The band marches in Rosalind Park.

AN estimated 6000 people had a taste of Scottish music, food and culture at Scots Day Out in Rosalind Park on Saturday. The earlier start encouraged people to venture into View Street and Rosalind Park for morning activities as organisers adapted the day’s program to avoid the high afternoon temperatures. Event director Chris Earl said haggis, venison and soft drinks quickly sold out while whisky tasting and shortbread were also popular as the crowd wandered through the park, aiming to be home under airconditioners by early afternoon. “Our amazing army of volunteers handed out almost 2000 programs to families and

family groups on average were numbering three or four people,” Mr Earl said. “We were absolutely delighted with the size of the crowd. We believe it was at least equal to last year, people just sensibly choosing to head home earlier.” The park was abuzz as local groups Sing Australia Choir and Emu Creek Bush Band entertained on Ceilidh Corner, Ausdance Victorian director and ex-pat Scot Andy Howitt, resplendent in kilt, led dancers from Bendigo’s Start Studio through workshops and performances and swordsmen from Glenlachlann Estate College of Arms and Bendigo Swordcraft gave demonstrations. Pipe bands and highland

dancers donned their uniforms and costumes for the day’s competitions and Scottish stories from Daylesford-based storyteller Anne Stewart regaled listeners. Mr Earl said 2014 chieftain Tim Robertson had been an outstanding choice for the role. “Tim spent the day meeting members of the various clans, bands and 14 local organisations who helped make SDO 2014 such a great success,” Mr Earl said. “The temperatures on Saturday were not ideal so we are particularly grateful to all our performers who altered their times to ensure SDO 2014 was staged by starting earlier and finishing earlier.”

Response from giggling teenagers In what amounts to sectarian scare-mongering regarding the proposed construction of a mosque in Bendigo, John Smith (letters February 7) refers to us as “giggling teenagers� and cites very real examples of horrendous atrocities perpetrated by extremist Islamists against Christian minorities overseas. He completely misses the obvious fact, however, that Australia is not, like those societies cited, a theocracy, but one of the best secular and liberal democracies in the world. Furthermore when Mr Smith implies that every Muslim is a potential Jihadist, he is modelling the same mindset as those murderously deluded Islamic extremists who violently persecute Christian minorities in those less egalitarian, educated and enlightened societies, where religious prohibition and segregation and the violence it breeds, remains the traditional norm. The “giggling teenagers�, Rachael (19), Ben (17), and Matthew (15) Goldsmith.

We’re all woeful In the Weekly, January 24 a regular correspondent claimed that “religious bigotry runs deep through Bendigo and its influence is pervasive�. Mind you, her own studied Christophobic statements sound a little slanted too. True religion welcomes the effects of public scrutiny and can withstand the testing of ill times, scorn and slander, and comes into its own under adversity. The sham falls back on compromise, abuse, name calling and displays of “credentials�? (as in all walks of life). To me, the presence of a mosque is a non-issue; it should create a two way missionary challenge. Can our churches withstand the challenge? I notice that it is the doctrinally and biblically starved among church people who

appear the most concerned. It is no wonder that the Lord, Himself, has already closed so many Australian churches down and has “spewed them out of His mouth�. Most church people have re-invented God and in effect become semi-pagan, while I understand that most Muslims have never yet fully read their own Koran. We’re woeful. George Read, California Gully

Rubber duckie, you’re the one THe continuation of duck hunting in Victoria is a clear example of the interests of a tiny minority being prioritised over the preferences of the majority. For most of the year native water-birds are protected, until the Victorian government, elmer Fudd style, declares that it is now “duck season�. For 12 practically lawless weeks, the season is characterised by an inevitable slew of reports of illegal and dangerously irresponsible behaviour by armed and deadly weekend warriors. A majority of ordinary Victorians are better than this, yet the open slaughter continues, in our back-yard, year after year. Georgina Davis, Bendigo

Conservation and suburbia AS a resident of Alder Street for the past 21 years, I have observed housing developments in our local area and there have been a few. I understand that there has to be houses built for people to live in, but the environmental impact on these areas is horrendous. I have observed developers cutting down trees and scrapping the area clean, leading to reduced sized blocks and very condensed living. I have noticed on the Preliminary Development Plan the blocks are mostly 550 square metres, meaning vegetation will be removed and

To buy a signed copy of any Glanville cartoon please phone 5440 2500

small houses have no eaves or verandahs to speak of. They have no shade, no compulsory solar power and the typical dark roof means high energy usage from airconditioners. I ask the developers and the Greater Bendigo council, where is the friendly environmental side of this type of development? I applaud the Diocese of Sandhurst for its donation of 7.15 hectares of land to the Bendigo Community, which will be protected by a Trust for nature covenant. Hopefully it will never be sold up as covenants have been changed in the past. Robert & Roberta Walder, Kangaroo Flat

There was a lot of comment at www.bendigoweekly.com.au this week about the safety of the city’s trees, both in public parks, and ones that threaten homes. Debbie Towers: Gum trees are prone to drop their limbs in any weather and should not be planted around homes or parks.They are not a protected species and a nice ash tree is a much safer alternative. Liz: I would have thought that the council could trim the tree to ensure people’s safety. Veronica: What gets on my goat is this family has voiced their fears concerns about a real threat and are met with red tape and policies when

I see many significant trees removed for housing development. Where is the reasoning? Ron Wodaski: What a horror story. You can’t put trees above people this needs to go. Courtney: Wake up Bendigo. When did a tree become more important then our children? I think the council has some severe priorities to sort out. Rachel: Is it seriously going to take a death before council will take action?

Council should be about the safety and welfare of the local residents. Sam Purden: Twice? Seriously get your act together and get this tree removed. My children play there too, do I have to tell them they can’t go to play because their yard (and in all likelihood house as well, it’s a huge tree) is not safe? Shame on you Bendigo Council. One tree is not going to hurt the ecosystem but the loss of one life will devastate many. Cut it down.

CRACKED WALLS ? SUNKEN FLOORS ?

editorial

Follow the Spirit ONE year ago, Bendigo and its basketball fraternity were full of hope, as The Spirit went into the WNBL finals series as favourites. After the first half of their first finals game at the Bendigo Stadium against the Dandenong Rangers, there were a few doubts creeping into the minds of the faithful. However, a stunning comeback, led by Kelly Wilson from long range, saw Bendigo through to its first home grand final. From there, the team, and the club, created history. The semi final comeback was a case of sport imitating life, with the club itself in dire straits at the start of the year. A lack of direction, and of money, saw The Spirit close to folding, in what would have been a tragedy for the sport and the city. However, led by a new board, the club has bounced back, and is now the envy of the league.

As The Spirit heads into its second finals series in two years, again as favourites, now is the time to take things to the next level. New chairman Greg Bickley has a goal, and it is one that the entire community can get behind. He wants The Spirit to have 1000 members by the end of the year. This is no easy task. At the moment there are about 450 people who have signed up as members. With the current success oncourt, it could be questioned why seeking membership is important. Those businesses and board members who have financially supported The Spirit through its tough patch must, of course, be congratulated. However, those individuals won’t be able to do it forever. For any sort of sustained success on the court, The Spirit needs greater financial stability off it.

Memberships are a great way to get involved, score an added bonus or two and get to see and know the players. The Spirit is our national team, and you won’t see higherquality sport played anywhere else in regional Victoria, let alone Bendigo. To start things off, why not buy a ticket to next Sunday’s WNBL semi final, where The Spirit will either play Dandenong again, or the Melbourne Boomers, who took the girls into double overtime at Bendigo last weekend. Tickets go on sale Monday, and there are only 500 left. Go online at www.bendigostadium.com.au to pre-purchase tickets, or call 5440 6214 from Monday. Go to The Bendigo Spirit page at www.wnbl.com.au for information on Spirit membership. If you have liked the past two years, you are going to love next season.

pk Pokies in their place with Peter Kennedy

I HATE poker machines‌. I haven’t put money into one for probably a decade, and I have absolutely no desire to do so. I know the odds are stacked against anyone who chooses to put their hard earned into a pokie, lured probably by the flashy lights, the bells that ring and the hope that they will be the one to collect. But I don’t think poker machines should be banned. If I had to choose between supporting a ban on cigarettes or a ban on electronic gaming machines, I’d back a ban on ciggies every time. Successive governments have done a lot to remove some of the so-called attractions associated with smoking tobacco, and plain packaging, graphic warnings and a series of education and awareness campaigns have helped to greatly reduce the incidence of smoking in our society. But if we are not going to actually legislate a ban gaming machines, we should look to what has happened with the tobacco industry‌ How

about getting rid of the flashing lights, and the associated bells and whistles on pokies for a start? A plain packaging approach to pokies might not be a bad idea – both inside the venues and outside as well. Maybe machines need a warning message that says chances are you won’t win, or

or they would only be able to offer a reduced service and most likely at a higher price. I realise there is a section of our community for whom poker machines are a problem – and in some cases, a major problem, but I’m not sure we should penalise 100 per cent of society because a small minor-

BendigoWeekly

How about getting rid of the flashing lights, and the associated bells and whistles on pokies that more than XX per cent of monies invested in this machine will become somebody’s losses. Some of this might already happen – again, I’m happy to admit it’s been a long time since I looked closely at a gaming machine. Most of us have at some time enjoyed a meal, a concert, a sporting event, a conference or a service provided by at least one of the many venues in Bendigo that have gaming machines. Without those machines, chances are those businesses would either not exist,

ity has a problem, (albeit a significant problem), with poker machines. I do not for one minute look to downplay the problems associated with problem gambling, but if the concern is we are making it too easy for people to access gaming machines by allowing more pokies in our city, we should never forget that the gaming device which offers the most convenient access of them all is the humble computer, tablet or mobile phone. twitter: @peterkennedy23

The heart of the matter Steve feels like the joker in the love card stakes

B

LOODY Valentine’s Day. For my whole life it has been a disaster. I have never received cakes or roses or chocolate. I have never managed to open a card from an unknown admirer. I just don’t fall into the category where women fall all over me. Some blokes walk into a room and all the heads turn, I walk into a room and all the heads turn away. So when it came to the school mailbox for Valentine’s Day there was never a card from an amorous classmate. This was probably a good thing at school as only boys went there, and I wasn’t that in need of a card. I have picked up a few along the way from partners of the time, but that really doesn’t count. You know they fancy you at least a bit. It’s the mystery ones which raise the sparkle, or so I imagine anyway. I have been known to send one or two in the distant past, usually in some misguided attempt to sway favour in my

direction. It never worked. No one realised they were from me, I didn’t even become a suspect from the ladies in question. I just didn’t appear on the radar. When I was a feckless youth of 17 or so, I remember sending cards via friends from all around the world to the particular object of my affections. She had cards from Washington and Edinburgh and Hawai’i at least. I even sent one from Fleet Street where I worked to let her realise it was a local interest. Of course her being 20 and

far senior to me, meant once again I fell by the wayside in the romance stakes. Thankfully I can’t remember her name, so I won’t be able to embarrass myself and her any further in print. There is always entertainment in a workplace, where purely with a sense of fun you send a card to a colleague. They may be pleased, they may be horrified, but the pay off for the practical joker who sent the card in the first place is when they contact their partner to thank them, only to receive a stony silence. Can’t say I have ever done

that one, but maybe you’d like to try it? Just this week I was reminded of the other side of this by a chief executive officer of one of our city’s finest groups. He was working away in Benalla and received a big bunch of flowers and a well-written card which set his pulse racing such was its intent. He telephoned his wife back in Bendigo to thank her for the flowers and the card. Mrs CEO had not sent them, and I understand our Benella traveller still bears the scars. twitter: @stevekendall1

dear dotty... Dear Dotty, Remember when you were young and you saw all those poor old women with saggy arms who wore pearls over their scraggy necks and you thought, nah that will never happen to me, well it has happened, to me. I am getting old. My bum has dropped and the only people I recognise in the New Idea are the Queen and Tom Cruise (who are all those blondes?). I am getting old. I am lost in my late 70s. Life is nearly over. I will never lose those 20 kilograms and fit back into my jeans, in fact the last time I looked they had flares. Never again will I feel the thrill of a wolf whistle as it travels down my spine; nor will I listen to Carole King late at night and feel the earth move under my feet. What hope is there for me? What can I do? Sad, depressed and miserable, Deb Dear Deb, The next time you see a smug young thing tripping along in her jellies just give her a quick, unprovoked kick in the shins and say something like, “You know it isn’t going to last girlie – you’re going to get fat and tired yourself one day, and when you’re thrown on the rubbish heap of life where all the old ladies go, along with the green wheelie bins and obsolete mobile phones, look at that scar on your leg, and think of me and remember what I said.

Illustration: “Wildey�

“It isn’t going to last - girlie.’� Feel a bit better? Dear Dotty, My daughter is going out with a man who I think will make a terrible husband. He’s rude to her and me and my wife, doesn’t take her out anywhere and can’t even use a hammer and nail. We don’t want to say anything in case she reacts to our objections and digs in her heels. What should we do? Malcom Hi Malcolm, Be buggered about not saying anything. I think most parents are far too cautious about giving advice, that’s the point of being a parent – you tell them what to do. Choosing the right life partner is a critical decision. You have every right to tell your daughter her boyfriend is nothing but chewy on her boot. Chuck yonnies at him next time he comes around. letters@bendigoweekly.com.au Twitter:@DearDotty

Fuzz in the middle FANS of Cleaver Greene have their man back on screen, with season three of Rake screening on Sundays. Greene is in prison and is surrounded by enemies, but he has friends on the inside too. It has been 11 months, and the world outside rolls along without him. His son Fuzz, played by 24-yearold Keegan Joyce, is making plans with his deeply Christian girlfriend Tara that will take him a long way from his father both physically and morally. We are about to see a lot more of Fuzz, as his character takes a new turn but for Keegan the journey so far has been remarkable. “I tried out for the role at 6.30pm one evening, and got the call the next day,” he said. “Rox (Richard Roxborough) was there, so that threw me a bit, but we just got on with it.” Keegan said the character was important from the start, giving Cleaver an “emotional humanity”. “Cleaver may be a train wreck, but he does care how Fuzz feels about things,” he said.

“We spent lots of time discussing how it would feel to have Cleaver as a father. How I would pull it off. “Peter Duncan (co-writer and director) was very supportive in making the character, who is trying to be so different from his father. What’s more he gave me the time to make it real.” While Keegan was not in a position to reveal too much he said Fuzz goes through a “big leap” later in the series. “There are some emotional scenes in there, and it really is hard to do some of the work without feeling it for real. All the time, Fuzz is trying to be brave.” Keegan is full of praise for the “family” that is the cast and crew of Rake. “It’s a lot of fun, but they are all serious professionals. “When a season comes to an end it’s a change, you have been with these people for a while, we started in 2010. “I spend a lot of time with “mum” (Caroline Brazier) in my scenes, and we have become good friends over

the years.” The Rake himself, Richard Roxborough, pulls in some praise from Keegan too. “He is a talented actor, but never offers advice or pushes ideas unless

asked, and that’s really helpful. “I don’t think he’s like Cleaver at all, but one night over a meal he went into an embellished monologue about filming in China, it was an incredible story, and I found myself

A BEVY of female musicians will be rocking out on stage as part of Queens of Noize, a two night special event that kicks off tonight at the Newmarket Hotel. Promoter Mick Griffin came up with the idea to bring together the talents of women on the live rock circuit. He says the eight acts are ‘a really good mix’ that covers the extremes from pop and alternative rock to heavy metal. “This kind of event takes away the edge from that macho image,” he said. “Men tend to ‘peacock around’ much more than women. Women don’t show off as much men but they get really into it. It’s a whole different attitude and energy on stage,” he said. Queensland all-female crew The An-

drogyny will be performing with Melbourne outfits Horizon’s Edge, Strawberry Fistcake, The Heroines and The Divine Fluxus. They’ll be joined by locals Chase the Ace, Rabid Zulu and Neurotik Trendz. Divine Fluxus lead singer and bassist Victoria Dunbar, who is headlining tonight, says it’s a great opportunity for female rock musicians to play their blend of original rock. “I think it’s fantastic because female rock bands are not promoted as much and it’s nice to be on the same billing with other females..” Mr Griffin plans to make Queens of Noize a biannual event and urges more women to play rock. “I think rock and roll is still testerone-fuelled and it would be great to break the mold,” he said.

The event has been relocated to the Black Swan Hotel in Bendigo for for Sunday, March 9. Organiser Steve Saxton is keen to keep the event an outdoor event. “One of the crucial aspects of this festival was to make it family friendly and accessible to the community and this been considered and planned for in the relocation,” he said. “We are aiming to fence off a large space in front of the Black Swan and make it family friendly and smoke free. “This area will contain a stage and marquee and provide acoustic acts and be closed by a Ska Band.” Mr Saxton said he held a number of discussions with supporters late last week to attempt to find a resolution. “This had to take into consideration the financial risk the committee would be asked to bear due to low pre-sales and though community support is strong the financial risk was considered too great.”

Local food industry insider with Marika McMahon

At the local W

HEN you live with a pub at the end of the street, some nights it’s awfully hard to resist the urge not to cook and head to the counter instead. When your local is the Brougham Arms, that doesn’t mean a menu of pub standards. Instead we are blessed to have within walking distance one of the best menus of any eating establishment in Bendigo, sometimes it’s like an extension of our lounge room. The Broughie’s chef Greg Egan is passionate about delivering great food in a pub setting, you can see the rhythm of a pub dining setting suits him as he peeks over the counter and surveys the punters and how they are enjoying his meal. The Broughie is a great combination of the usual fare you’d expect at a pub combined with some pretty special dishes. This works well if you’re gathering together a group for dinner, you see many big tables at the Broughie where both

the adventurous and non-adventurous can make a selection from the menu they won’t regret. There’s one part of the menu at the Brougham Arms I am particularly proud of – the dish I created. One night I felt like a mixture of a couple of the seafood entrees so asked Greg if he could combine them. The seafood tasting plate is now a permanent fixture. I also love the seafood green curry. On recent hot nights when we’ve escaped to the cool of the Broughie (and a few icy cold local Brookes beers) I’ve been loving a special of salmon with green mango salad served with a black bean sauce. See, not your usual pub fare – but I must admit I snuck a taste of the kids party as well. Greg is another local chef passionate about using local produce, he’s also one of the chefs participating in the March 16 Mad Hatters food festival, can’t wait to see what he dreams up for that.

with Jody and Brent Loam of the Willow Room, Heathcote Q. Wild or farmed fish which is better for the environment and sustainability? A. This is a really hard question to answer. As a chef I would always say wild but so long as it’s not under threat or endangered. Farmed fish is not always better as a lot of farmed fish are often fed on wild fish. There are some great websites that have information on which fish are good substitutes to choose over others that may be under threat. Have a look at these two for more information. www.sustainableseafood.org.au www.goodfishbadfish.com.au Q. What is clafoutis? A. Clafoutis is a classic French dessert from the Limousin region near the centre of France. Usually containing black cherries, the fruits are studded into a rich, sweet, egg batter and baked in a flan dish until golden brown. The dish is served warm with cream and finished with a dusting of icing sugar. It can be made with other stone fruits. Q. I have excess apricots, and I don’t want to make jam. What else can I do with them? A. Apricots are very versatile and can be used for lots of things. They are great roasted and made into a frangipane tart or tarte tatin. You can make a spicy apricot chutney. Grill on the barbecue and serve in a salad with pork sausages. Poach and store in a sterilised jar to keep for the winter months.

The right person for the task L

AST week I gave the background to the career of Frank Bray Brimacombe who succeeded William Hicks as the manager of the New Red White and Blue Consolidated Mine, located near the south end of Thistle Street. The use of the term ‘consolidated’ in the name of this mine is most appropriate, as in November 1880 the small claim holders of the Union, Phoenix, Albion and Vigus were all combined. The new company had an issue of 60,000 shares and the steam winding plant had a 457mm diameter cylinder and use was to be made of the old St Andrew’s shaft which was 127 metres north of the then main shaft. At that time the St Andrew’s shaft had a depth of 76 metres. Much work was done, but it turned out most disappointing, the bank then foreclosed on the company. The plant had been bought by Mr L Robertson for £1000 on behalf of the original shareholders. George Lansell was approached to take up 30,000 shares, which he purchased for £3000 cash. The first £1000 was to reimburse Robertson, while £2000 was to be utilised for the credit of the company and enable the mine property to be developed. The company being newly registered with this restructure. Roger Lisle had been the manager but left Bendigo in 1885 for greener pastures, having secured the management of the fabulously rich Mount Morgan Mine in Queensland. William Hicks, mine manager, was successful in opening up a

huge body of quartz spurs which were, when mined, most remunerative. George Lansell had great faith in this section of the Sheepshead Reef and this led him in 1893 to construct adjacent to the New Red White and Blue Consolidated, his 105 head Lansell Bendigo Battery, Bendigo’s largest. The battery began crushing in late February 1894. One of the men appointed to the supervisory staff of the battery was Frank Brimacombe and he followed Hicks to become the manager of the mine as well. With the new manager he was quick to introduce rock drilling machinery which measurably helped increase production from the mine. Considerable faith in Mr Brimacombe had been placed by George Lansell in his new manager, in time he became simultaneously respon-

sible for the management of other mines nearby on the Sheepshead Reef. From current research it is not clear what precisely Mr Brimacombe’s role was in relation to at least four of these mines, but I suspect that he became the superintendent of this group. Now forward to September 1908, with the visit of the officers and sailors of the American Fleet. Mr Brimacombe was on hand to greet a group of these visitors and he introduced them to James A Magee, one of the New Red White and Blue Conslidated’s employees. Mr Brimacombe had selected well with Magee because of his military experience as he had served in the Boer War. Magee had been Major Eddy’s orderly, he had been a most distinguished soldier from the Australian colonies to serve in that conflict.

Major Eddy was killed in action at the battle for Pink Hill. Magee took the visitors underground to the 218.4 metre level of the mine where they were able to see a rock drill being operated. Upon alighting at the surface from the cage they were again greeted by Mr Brimacombe, who had the stars and stripes fluttering above the engine room. The mine manager then invited two of the visitors, Ensign Hall and a midshipman to plant grapevines on each side of the engine room steps. One sailor told a nearby journalist, “I would not have missed that for anything. “It was a fine sight, I appreciate the trip very highly but would like to have gone down a little further. We wanted to see gold. We Americans like to go down as far as we can.”

OW that Bendigo’s luxurious new library is up and running, Heritage Matters thought it might be interesting to see what life was like for the people who used and worked at Bendigo’s first public library in the 1860s. David Marshall ran the Sandhurst Mechanics Institute library, on the corner of Chapel and McCrae streets, and lived in the back with his family. The library was a flimsy structure of wood and hessian, and running it was a real challenge. On one hand his employers, the committee, were unhelpful and haughty, constantly knocking back his requests for help. On the other hand library members were complaining to the press, not paying their subscriptions, and so keen on books they often decided to keep them – the library actually shrank despite many books being added. So life was grim for Mr Marshall, as he trudged around debt collecting (another of his duties). It was about to get a whole lot grimmer, as we reveal the dreadful events and humiliating aftermath of what must have been the worst Christmas of Mr Marshall’s life.

Diet and exercise combine for a trimmer body H

EALTHY Weight Week raises awareness of the importance of achieving and maintaining a healthy weight and a healthy lifestyle. AHWW is an important part of the Dietitians Association of Australia’s obesity strategy, helping to address overweight and obesity nationally. Eating better has many benefits: a healthy weight helps you live life to the full and eating better food and being active helps you feel healthy and happy. Remember if your weight is healthy it is important to keep it healthy and if you are overweight, losing a few kilograms will make a big difference A recent survey of more than 500 men and women

aged 25 to 45 years commissioned by the Dietitians Association of Australia shows that 55 per cent of adults in this age group have tried to lose weight in the last 12 months. As well as diet, movement and exercise plays a vital part in achieving and maintaining a healthy weight Moving more means: being physically active for at least 30 to 60 minutes every day, enjoying a wide variety of physical activities throughout the day – like walking to work or school, or taking the stairs instead of the lift. And remember when choosing an activity or sport, choose one that suits your ability and fitness level.

Are you looking for a career change, something to see you out to retirement or semi retired and looking for a few days of regular work? If so, and you enjoy driving and working with others, then this is the position for you! G4S will provide all the essential steps and training for you to build an ongoing career in the Correctional industry! Being a Prisoner Transport Officer provides variety and responsibility, with the duty of care for the secure movement and management of prisoners between courts, police custody and correctional institutions. If you have a mature and professional approach and a strong focus on obtaining goals, a commitment to a safe work environment and can work autonomously or as a team, then we’d like to hear from you. Ideally you’ll have a medium or heavy rigid driver’s licence, but for the right applicant, if you’ve held a current full Victorian driver’s licence for 12 months, we can accommodate. Successful applicants must have a valid current Working With Children’s Check and will be required to undergo a police and customer security check. Before applying, you must register online through our Career Centre, read the linked Position Description and application requirements. To apply for this role please visit the G4S Career Centre at www.jobs.g4s.com.au to register your interest and upload your application. Enquiries may be directed to Stephanie Kerr on (03) 8360 9026.

Autumn should see increased activity FLY FISHING

JOE SINGE Causing them to think that perhaps the carp are driving the trout into the deeper water. There is a lot of discussion about other environmental changes at the reservoir. But all is not lost. The weather is hopefully cooling down with even a forecast for rain at the weekend. Autumn is not far away. The settled, cooler weather of autumn is not only a great time to be out fishing but also a time when the fish are out and about. Many local fly fishers remember hatches of flying ants at Barkers Creek, Cairn Curran, and Malmsbury reservoirs. These hatches are more common in autumn. If you can be

The weather is hopefully cooling down with even a forecast for rain of the state to fish there. Fisheries continue to stock the reservoir; a drought recovery program to restock reservoirs affected by the drought is still in place. There have been some significant changes in the environs of the reservoir since the drought and combined with the heat of the recent summer, have made for difficult fishing. Opportunities to catch a trout at the reservoir have been limited in comparison to past years. Many who fish the reservoir have noted a significant increase in the number of carp in the shallows of the reservoir.

at one of these reservoirs during a hatch of ants, you might see some of the missing trout, rising to feed on the ants when they fall on the water. Other lakes to try when the weather cools down are Tullaroop Reservoir, the Upper Coliban Reservoir and Lauriston Reservoir, particularly if the reservoir has trees growing around or near it. Beetle falls are also an autumn event. I have heard of a kilogram rainbow trout being caught in the cool of the night at Barkers Creek Reservoir. For those willing to try their luck in the dark, it might be worth a try.

TOP CATCH: Russell Aston and his winning Murray cod.

Super Series continues

HE Goulburn River just above Nagambie was the venue for round two of the Central Victorian Lure Casters Super Series last month, with 98 anglers attending. The CVLCSS holds regular catch’n’release competitions for lure fishing, held at various locations within a couple of hours drive of Bendigo, all for a $12 entry fee. Russell Aston went home $685 richer after landing the largest cod of the round with a solid 71cm fish. Overall five cod, 17 golden perch and seven redfin were landed. Justin Rees narrowly won the points placing, taking home the major prize board and $295 cash prize from second place getter Craig Oxley. Third place getter and a pair of Tonic Sunglasses went to junior Archie Lowe. Also the first event for the Bendigo Legion Angling Club calendar year got underway with a disappointing turnout of only six anglers fishing the Loddon River above Bridgewater on January 12 for a small Murray cod and two golden perch.

NICK ATYEO John Rofe took the price for the biggest legal fish with a 42cm golden perch on a spinner-bait, bettering Dion Duvoison’s effort of a 38cm perch. While Peter Rice had to be content with returning a solid 55cm undersized Murray cod that also took a liking to a cast spinner-bait. Hopefully this month’s trip to the Goulburn River will draw more interest this weekend, February 15 and 16, based at Majors Creek camping reserve. Murray cod and golden perch will be fish of choice for most attending, however the ever popular redfin can also be found. As usual it will be best to come fully prepared with a range of bait and your favourite lures. Round three of the CVLCSS at the Loddon River at Serpentine will resume on the first Saturday in March . Fishing will range from the weir upstream to a marked area south of Bridge at Serpentine giving you approximately four kilometres of river to fish.

980 Alternate Calder Hwy, Lockwood Phone: 5435 3336 www.lockwoodcanvas.com.au

As this is a small body of water with lots of submerged structure, low speeds are advised. Free camping is permitted in public reserve along the river from bridge to weir. Boat launching facilities are located at the concrete ramp at Bridgewater Road bridge, with a dirt 4wd ramp at the weir. Registration between 6.30am and 7am only with fishing between 7am and 1pm followed by a barbecue and presentations. See the CVLCSS website: www.cvlcss.com for more details. Doug King, certified instructor from Boating Victoria a division of Transport Safety Victoria was guest speaker for a good turnout of members at the Bendigo Legion Angling Club’s general meeting earlier this month. Doug imparted his lifetime of on-water experience in an informative manner giving members valuable information regarding water safety and survival. The Victorian Recreational Boating Safety Handbook, available from Transport Safety Victoria free of charge, should be a must read for all boaters in helping making our waterways a safer environment for all to enjoy.

I

DON’T think I am giving away secrets when I say that the favourite local fishing water of most Bendigo and district fly fishers is Barkers Creek Reservoir, (previously known as Harcourt or North Harcourt Reservoir) in the Harcourt Valley. Before the recent drought, insect life flourished at the reservoir and the trout stocked by the fisheries department thrived. Depending on the season, fly fishers cast their imitation insects, to unsuspecting trout.

Bendigo in soccer win By JOEL PETERSON

A week after it was announced Bendigo’s bid for a National Premier Leagues team had been successful, Bendigo Amateur Soccer League operations manager says the support has been extraordinary. The structure of the NPL competition was announced on wednesday, with Bendigo to field its senior and under-20 sides in the lower-grade NPL1 competition. The junior teams are split into two conferences based on their location within the state, with Bendigo drawn in the same conference as Ballarat for the juniors. NPL 1 also comprises of teams from Avondale Heights, Box Hill United, Brunswick City, Dandenong City, eastern Lions, FC Bulleen Lions, kingston City, Moreland Zebras, North Geelong warriors, Richmond, Springvale white eagles, St Albans Saints, Sunshine George Cross, Surf Coast and whittlesea Ranges. Rogers said the BASL had been able to secure support from businesses, and had received positive feedback about the team. “The support I have had since

Car firm BaCks Bendigo footBall netBall THe Bendigo Football Netball League’s netball competition has received a boost, with Bendigo Mazda coming on board as a significant partner of the competition. The company has joined forces with the BFNL for the next two years and will allow the league to further develop the netball competition. “we are excited about the relationship with Bendigo Mazda and need to acknowledge their contribution will have a direct benefit and impact the BFNL Netball competition,” AFL Central Victoria’s regional operations manager Justin Abrams said. “Their contribution will enable the BFNL to assist clubs with product and the potential to purchase a new electronic scoreboard at the QeO used for the BFNL Netball Finals Series.” Bendigo Mazda’s dealer principal Richard Opie said the company is similarly excited about the agreement, which will also see Bendigo Mazda provide a Mazda 2 branded with the AFL Central Victoria logo. “we are delighted to be a partner with Netball in the AFL Central Victoria region,” he said. we are excited that the contribution we have made will improve netball for AFL Central Victoria and in particular the BFNL Netball competition.”

the announcement has been great, particularly the business and community support which has been great,” he said. “I have had a lot of people provide really positive feedback, which is a reflection of how massive this is for soccer in Bendigo.” The season for the senior sides kicks off on the weekend of March 14-16, with the junior sides starting their seasons on April 6. Teams in both NPL and NPL1 will play each other twice on a home and away basis with no finals series. In 2014, the Victorian NPL champion will be determined using the first past the post system and will represent Victoria in the national NPL finals. Rogers said with the season running from March until early October, it would give the team time to develop as the season goes along. “It is an extremely tight turnaround, but we have got fitness sessions underway and people in place that are seeking players to line up for the side,” Rogers said. “we wanted to be in NPL1 so we can develop, and after three

years when our licence agreement ends we would certainly hope to be pushing up to the NPL level. “we’ve got plenty of talented juniors in Bendigo, but also we are fairly confident that some past players who have come from Bendigo

will use the opportunity to be able to move home and play at this level in their own community. “we’re under no illusions that it will be tough from the outset, but we hope to grow as the team does and push for more wins in the sec-

Baker the Saint now with Storm STRATHFIeLDSAye Storm has added another former St kilda saint to its lineup, with the club announcing that Steven Baker will pull on the navy and white hoops in season 2014. The 33-year-old former Saints tagger played 203 games with the club after being taken with pick number 27 in the 1998 national draft from the Geelong Falcons. Baker won a Trevor Barker Medal as St. kilda’s best and fairest player in 2005, and will join former teammate Stephen Milne at the Storm. The midfield hard-nut played the Saints’ grand final appearance in 2009, along with the drawn grand final and subsequent replay against Collingwood in 2010 alongside Milne. Strathfieldsaye coach Darryl wilson believes Baker’s defensive mindset will add another dimension to the Storm list. “It’s great to have him join the club, we felt we were deficient in the midfield from a defensive standpoint and he fits that bill perfectly,” he said. “we will utilise him in a defensive and attacking roles, but he is strong on where he wants to play and that defensive role is one we see him filling for us.” wilson said both Baker and Milne would bring great experience to the club, and both trained with the Storm’s main group on Thursday night. “Those boys have both played under

ond half of the season.” Fixtures and confirmation about promotion and relegation frameworks for senior men will be released on wednesday, February 26 and NPL Rules of Competition on Tuesday, March 4.

GAME ON: Steven Baker Ross Lyon and have a great understanding of how to play that defensive game style, he said. “(Milne) has trained with our group and you can see just from the things he passes on to the boys that they have that knowledge and experience, and that will be great for our group.” Strathfieldsaye faces Golden Square at Flight Centre Park in a blockbuster grand final rematch to kick off its season on Sunday, April 6. The stand-alone contest will see four players with a cumulative total of 760 AFL games on the park: Milne (275), Baker (203), and Golden Square’s Corey Jones (157) and Rick Ladson (125).

A BUMPeR weekend of cricket is planned for this Sunday in the emu Valley Cricket Association, with a return to two-day play as well as the association’s Bash For Cash finals to be held.

“To have the talents to not just win (rainbow jerseys) in 2013 their first year, but also earn re-selection in 2014, proves they have worked hard and didn’t rest on their laurels.” The championships will be held on a large 333-metre concrete velodrome, providing riders with a stern test. “That’s what the junior program is about, it is about challenging people,” Gilmore said. “Differing conditions, putting them under the spotlight and seeing how they react. We aim to educate them in the right manner, and set the cultural aspect of the team both on and off the track.” The sprint and endurance teams will complete separate training camps

in Australia in April, before a full-team camp in July before departure to Korea in August. Jack Haig also continued his stellar summer of cycling last week, with third place in the Jayco Herald Sun Tour. After the final stage of the race was cancelled due to the threat of fire last Sunday, Haig finished on the podium alongside second-placed Cameron Wurf and race winner Simon Clarke, and also took the white jersey for the tour’s best rider under 23 years of age. All four Bendigo riders that competed in the tour finished inside the top 20, with world track champion Glenn O’Shea finishing a credible seventh overall, and Drapac temmates Lachlan Norris and Darren Lapthorne 14th and 17th, respectively.

PROMISING young Australian forward Rosie Fadljevic will return home to Victoria to play for the Bendigo Lady Braves in the 2014 South East Australian Basketball League season. Fadljevic comes to the club from the Townsville Fire in the Women’s National Basketball League, where she is averaging 2.2 points and 1.7 rebounds in 12 minutes per game playing behind the likes of Kayla Standish and former Lady Brave Mia Newley. Fadljevic brings international experience to the team, having represented her country with the Australian Emerging Opals in China last year as well as the national side at last year’s FIBA under-19 World Championships. The Dandenong native said she is looking forward to joining the Lady Braves and is hoping the team can continue to find success on the court. “I’m excited to to join the Lady Braves and contribute to the team’s success,” Fadljevic said.

She has great experience across all levels of basketball LADY BRAVE: Rosie Fadljevic “I hope to help the group any way I can, and I’m confident that we can continue to compete against the rest of the teams in the league. “Returning to Victoria will be a great opportunity for me to continue to develop and improve, especially in such a good basketball town like Bendigo.” Lady Braves head coach Jonathan Goodman said he saw Fadljevic as an exciting addition to the squad, and was looking forward to seeing her versatility on court come the team’s first game against Brisbane in Bendigo on Saturday,

March 22. “Rosie’s ability to affect the game in so many different ways is going to be a key factor for the team,” the Lady Braves’ second year coach said. “She is a strong, aggressive player whose athleticism can really change a game on offense or defence. “She has great experience across all levels of basketball, and we’re looking forward to having her lift her game even more in Bendigo.” Prior to joining Townsville, the 20-year-old played for Dandenong in both the WNBL and SEABL while also spending a year at the AIS in 2011/12.

Bendigo bids for Federation Cup TENNIS in Bendigo could receive a huge boost, with the city in the running to hold a Fed Cup tie between Australia and Germany in April. After Australia took down Russia last week in Hobart, the Bendigo Tennis Association has placed a bid to host the world group semi-final on April 19-20. A temporary grandstand would need to be constructed, as well as a court extension to bring it up to showcourt standard, but BTA executive officer Leon Retallick said the work was possible with the right support. “We are certainly hopeful, we were down to the shortlist of two for

the tie that was held in Hobart but it was probably a little easier infrastructure wise with that facility having just held a WTA tournament,” he said. “There would be some work to be done but we’ve had some indications that we would get some support from the state government and Sport and Recreation Victoria, who are good supporters of what we do here.” With names such as Sam Stosur, Casey Dellacqua and Germany’s Angelique Kerber potentially hitting the Bendigo courts, it would be a boost for tennis in the region and the local economy.

The bid to secure hosting rights for the centre had its redevelopment plan in action, which funding to was scrapped earlier this year. “I think if our redevelopment plan was in full swing, we could potentially almost have it locked in. It would certainly be a big boost to our chances,” Retallick said. “We are confident we could deliver the tournament if we are selected, it is just a matter of the selection. ‘This is the type of thing that can only potentially come around once every five years, and we would certainly love to play host to it.” - Joel Peterson

All Star Spirit

Dean heads for Korea

By JOEL PETERSON

BENDIGO’S cycling success continued on the track this week, with young gun Braeden Dean selected in the Australian team to head to the junior track world championships in Korea later this year. The 18-year-old dominated at the recent Australian National Track Championships in Adelaide, taking home three gold medals and a silver. He took out the Men’s under-19 1km time trial, kierin and team sprint and was also runner-up in the individual sprint final. Dean will form one part of a fourrider sprint team, alongside fellow Victorians Jay Castles, Courtney Field and Queensland’s Sheridan Spark. Cycling Australia’s national junior director Matthew Gilmore said the team is extremely wellbalanced. “We have a good blend of first and second year athletes heading to Korea,” he said.

A LOT of hard work has culminated in an extremely successful past two years for Bendigo Spirit’s Gabrielle Richards, who was this week rewarded with her second consecutive WNBL All-Star selection. The 29-year-old averaged 13.5 points and 9.5 rebounds this season, leading the Spirit in those two categories. Originally from Seymour, but having played the majority of her career in Bendigo, Richards says those numbers show how team-orientated the side is. “It’s absolutely great to be selected as an AllStar again. It’s a bit of a shock, I definitely wasn’t expecting it,” she said yesterday. “We are so team orientated in the way we play, that it isn’t about individual players or numbers, and that’s the beauty of it and the reason for our success. “(Coach Bernie Har-

rower) always says for us to be great, everyone needs to play great, and play with confidence, no matter whether you’re starting or coming off the bench. “It’s all about team success, and that is what we all aim for.” Richards has battled persistent knee injuries throughout her career and even took a year away from the WNBL club, and admits there were doubts at times as to whether she could play at this level. “At times there were doubts, and, touch wood, I guess I have been lucky that I haven’t had any serious injuries that have kept me out for a long time,” Richards said. “I have always tried to play the best I can, and even when the success was not there a few years ago it was always enjoyable because of the people you met and played with, and Bendigo being such a great place.” Richards and the Spirit will be aiming to set a

franchise record for wins in the last week of the regular season this weekend, when the side takes on Logan on Saturday night. Coming off a tough weekend of wins against Dandenong, and a double-overtime thriller against Melbourne on Sunday, Richards, who set a franchise record with 21 rebounds against Melbourne, says the team is banged up but ready to head into finals. “The game against Melbourne was massive, and incredibly tough,” she said. “We didn’t have Elyse (Penaluna) or Kelly (Wilson) and Kristi (Harrower) rolled her ankle late in the game. It really showed how we can deal with adversity, and battle through anything. “Hopefully we can get through this weekend and head into that first final playing well.” Bendigo’s Saturday night game against Logan begins at 7.30pm at the Bendigo Stadium.
