THE Glenorchy War Memorial Pool has shut its doors for the winter – but not before dozens of doggos made a splash at the pool’s first ever Dog Day Out. The event raised nearly $1300 for Guide Dogs Tasmania.

The pool will re-open in October.

TASMANIA’S ice sports community is rallying together following confirmation that the state’s only ice rink will close.

The Glenorchy rink, which has been operating for more than 40 years, has recently been sold and will likely be repurposed by the new owners.

As Tasmania’s sole facility for figure skaters, ice hockey players,

paralympic sled hockey players and recreational skaters, the looming closure of the rink has come as a huge blow to the ice sports community.

Ice Sports Tasmania president Anna Holliday said the community is devastated by the closure and what it means for local athletes.

“Hundreds of social and competitive ice hockey and figure

skating athletes have no local future in their sport and our young people have lost a place of community connection,” she said.

“Come 21 May, all of them will be left without a place to train, compete and play together.”

Ice Sports Tasmania is working to secure the future of ice sports in the state by pushing for a new full-sized facility.

Slippery slope for ice sports FROM FRONT PAGE

“A new facility would see us introduce sports such as ice speed skating, curling, broomball, schoolbased junior programs and vulnerable youth programs,” Ms Holliday said.

“With a new full-size ice rink with modern amenities, Ice Sports Tasmania would also plan to establish a raft of ice sports programs for people with disability.”

Since the announcement of the rink’s sale in early April, Ice Sports Tasmania has received a groundswell of support for their campaign for a new full-size ice sports centre.

An online petition gathered more than 1100 signatures in just 48 hours.

“We are humbled by the influx of messages from local and interstate

supporters, and we also realise the impact our local situation may have on ice sports on a national scale,” Ms Holliday said.

On 14 April, Sport and Recreation Minister Nic Street said he had met with Ice Sports Tasmania several times in the previous month to discuss their concerns and try to find a solution.

“I am aware that the Glenorchy Ice Skating Rink has been sold and that there are concerns from the local ice sports community and current users of the rink about its future,” he said.

“The sale of the Glenorchy Ice Skating Rink was a private sale, and it would not have been appropriate for the State Government to interfere with that process.

“I will remain in contact with Ice Sports Tasmania

as they work to secure the future of their sports in Tasmania and assist wherever possible.”

Labor Member for Clark Ella Haddad is disappointed that a workable solution is yet to be found.

“It is so heartbreaking for this community,” she said.

“It’s the only rink in Tasmania and without it, these sports will simply not be played here anymore.

“These athletes will either give up on their sport and their dreams to compete or be forced to move interstate.”

Ice Sports Tasmania is calling for governments, the private sector and the community to step in and save ice sports in Tasmania.

Bec Thomas, Mayor of Glenorchy AS I’m sure you’re aware we’re in the midst of another election ‘season’, with a local election for the Tasmanian Legislative Council (Upper House) seat of Elwick on 7 May and an Australian Government (Federal) election on 21 May. Talking to people out and about in the community, I know elections can be confusing. Which level of Government is this election for? Which electorate am I in? Which ‘seat’ is each candidate running for, and in which ‘house’? And which party do they represent?

In fact, people are doing better than the average punter if they even understand it enough to ask these questions.

At the bar of a local pub during the Glenorchy City Council by-election last year, I overheard a guy say to the bartender, “that’s Bec Thomas, she’s running for Mayor”. With an inquisitive look, the bartender responded by asking, “what’s a Mayor?”.

I didn’t catch the first part of his response, but I did hear him mention something about robes and chains, and then I heard him say, “you know, like the Cripps Ambassador!”.

Well, I googled the Cripps Ambassador and learned that his role is to look after everyone who pledges their allegiance to Cripps and Tasmania.

So, I guess he wasn’t too far off the mark!

Not coming from a family or friendship circle that ever had much interest in or connection to politics, it’s not surprising that a number of people actually ask me “what does a Mayor and Alderman actually do?”

Our system of Government and politics can be extremely difficult to get your head around if you’re not directly involved in some way, and it’s not something you really truly understand until you’ve been part of it, and even then…

I did a google search to try to find a link to share with you that easily explains it, but no luck.

So now that’s on my to-do list.

But until then, don’t be afraid to ask those involved in government to explain it to you!

While you’re at it, please ask them to commit to delivering for our City of Glenorchy through this election too!

The upcoming Federal Election presents an opportunity for us all to lobby for investment in things that will provide economic and social benefits to the people of Glenorchy City and Greater Hobart.

On behalf of the ratepayers and residents of Glenorchy, we are calling on all Federal Election candidates to commit to investing in important community infrastructure projects, if they are elected in May. The top three priorities we’ve identified are Tolosa Park, playgrounds, and the Glenorchy War Memorial Pool. We know these assets mean a great deal to you, the people of Glenorchy. We need your help in telling the candidates why these

things are important to you.

A commitment to funding the transformation of Tolosa Park would see this space become the jewel in the crown of Southern Tasmania’s recreation network, by leveraging off the significant work TasWater and Glenorchy City Council are about to undertake to demolish part of the dam wall and partially remediate the empty Tolosa Reservoir.

We are asking Federal election candidates to commit $13m to deliver on the Tolosa Park Masterplan.

Glenorchy’s playspaces and playground equipment are ageing and out of step with contemporary facilities in other municipalities. The people of Glenorchy are crying out for improvements, as 82 per cent of playspaces are more than 15 years old and in need of immediate attention.

Council is calling on candidates to commit $1.5 million to provide the people of Glenorchy with 10 renewed and upgraded playspaces across our City, in line with the needs identified in our Playspace Strategy.

Built in the 1960s, the Glenorchy War Memorial Pool has served the people of Glenorchy and Greater Hobart well for almost 60 years and is a muchloved asset. However, our community has told us they want to see the Glenorchy War Memorial Pool upgraded.

Council is seeking $150,000 to undertake a full assessment to determine what the community wants in an aquatic facility and the investment required to deliver on this.

Community engagement on what a future facility might include and whether to retain the unique outdoor setting or develop an indoor facility, will be a key element of this project.

Through the Greater Hobart Partnership, we have worked with Hobart, Clarence and Kingborough councils to lobby for funding for the activation of the Northern Suburbs Transit Corridor; extension of the Derwent River ferry service to locations including Wilkinson’s Point; the Active Transport Network; the Antarctic and Science Precinct; and Greater Hobart Digital Twin (a ‘virtual replica’ of our City).

Of course, we are also calling on candidates to commit to increased investment in social and affordable housing, which I know is an issue of importance to everyone in our community.

In summary, my key messages to you this election are: • If you don’t understand elections and politics, know that you’re not alone and don’t be afraid to ask questions about it.

We are lucky to live in country where we have the opportunity to choose our leaders; and • Reach out to candidates and tell them what matters to you, with consideration to lobbying for the priorities we’ve identified on your behalf – Tolosa Park, playgrounds and Glenorchy Pool.

Be informed and be empowered this election – your vote really counts!

Salvos select site for new housing The Salvation Army Tasmania State Leader Kim Haworth (centre) with philanthropists Brooke and Bruce Neill at the site of the new housing development

A LOCAL philanthropist and his daughter have partnered with The Salvation Army and the state government to develop a vital community housing project in Moonah.

The 21-unit development on the former Salvation Army Moonah Corps site in Hopkins St will cater for the ever-growing number of women aged over 55 experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, homelessness.

Managed by The Salvation Army, the development will offer

one and two-bedroom units for women and, if required, family in their care.

Work on the site, which became available when the Salvos moved their Community Church and Emergency Relief Doorways Centre to Glenorchy, is expected to be completed by mid-2023.

The development is able to proceed thanks to a significant contribution by The Select Foundation, of which philanthropist Bruce Neill is chairman and his daughter Brooke

a director.

“The Select Foundation has been a major Tasmanian funder for medical research over the past 20 years and has received national awards for leadership and generosity,” Mr Neill said.

“In recent years we have been a funder to

support the vulnerable and homeless and have been seeking a major project to be involved with.

“We are proud and excited to be part of this community social housing development, especially considering the units are specifically for women over 55.

“We look forward to

the journey with The Salvation Army and the women that will be housed and supported.”

State Leader of The Salvation Army Captain Kim Haworth said the project is the first of its kind for the Salvos in Tasmania.

“There are too many people experiencing homelessness in our

state, including a growing number of older women,” she said.

“This project is just one example of what we can achieve in Tasmania when we partner together to address this growing community crisis.

“Our professional team of staff and volunteers look forward

to working with our housed community members and helping them on the road to a brighter future.

“Our desire is to not only build houses, it’s to build homes and healthy communities where every person is valued and can contribute to the mutual flourishing of our society.”

Hobart City Mission celebrates National Volunteer Week 2022 LIFELONG friends Pip Dobson and Ros Lamprill can attest to the proven benefits of volunteering, including gaining new skills and confidence, making meaningful connections, and giving back to the local community.

The pair have been donating their time to help out at the Hobart City Mission sorting warehouse, and say they love the social side of volunteering.

Pip said volunteering gave her the chance to meet and learn from people of all ages and backgrounds.

“The social side is so good for you,” she said.

“I know what it’s like to go through difficult times, and to see a smile on people’s faces, when

Hobart City Mission volunteers Ros Lamprill and Pip Dobson

they find something they love in the Op Shop makes you feel so great.”

Ros suggested volunteering to anyone looking to give back to the community.

“For most of us we live a very privileged life here in Tasmania,” she said.

“But the gap between the ‘haves’ and the ‘have-nots’ seems to be widening and volunteering gives us the opportunity to hopefully put something back.

“I think Hobart City Mission does such a wonderful job of that. I feel privileged to be able to help.”

Hobart City Mission is encouraging more people to give volunteering a go during National Volunteer Week (16-22 May) by introducing

Bring Your Own Friend month.

BYOF month encourages current and potential Hobart City Mission volunteers to bring along a friend for a non-commitment day of volunteering at the Moonah City Mission Op Shops or the sorting warehouse.

Volunteers will help by hanging clothes on racks, assisting customers and sorting donations, giving them the chance to find out if volunteering is something they’d like to continue.

To get involved in National Volunteer Week or Bring Your Own Friend month, phone Sara Shepherd on 0438 421 076 or email sshepherd@ hobartcitymission.org.au

On the lookout for English tutors DO you have some spare time on weekdays, and want to help others improve their English skills?

TasTAFE is looking for people to become volunteer language tutors for eligible migrants in Hobart, with the next six-week block of tutor training beginning on 30 May. TasTAFE provides oncampus English classes for migrants, but some students need extra help to improve specific aspects such as writing skills.

There are also migrants who are unable to attend classes because of mobility issues or caring responsibilities.

The tutor program aims to fill that gap.

After completing their training, volunteer tutors assist migrant ‘students’ on a one-on-one basis for about an hour each week.

Tutors help their students to learn speak, read and write English, while also establishing important connections

with the local community.

Volunteer tutor Lynda Vertigan completed the training in May last year and finds the program very rewarding.

“I like the way it involves me in the community,’’ she said.

“It’s lovely to get to know someone from a different background and be able to help her.”

Lynda’s most recent student is Medina, who migrated to Tasmania from Ethiopia and wants to improve her English so she can communicate better and eventually gain employment.

“Lynda is a good teacher,” Medina said.

“It’s important to learn English for me, and Lynda helps me a lot.”

Lynda encouraged others to do the training and become a volunteer tutor.

“I liked the training because it included the issues and challenges that migrants face in Australia, as well as teaching strategies and a great range of resources,”

she said.

“To teach English, I have to consider my own language – the complexity, the irregularity. It’s not easy.

“But you are not alone, as TasTAFE provides you with resources and ongoing support.

“It’s very interesting and rewarding to be a tutor.”

Volunteer Tutor Scheme administrator Hiroko Kunimoto said tutors do more than just help student improve their language skills, by incidentally helping them understand cultural differences and Australian customs.

“They can become an important connection point to the society the migrants are trying to adjust to and embrace,” Hiroko said.

The tutor training combines online study and face-to-face sessions.

If you’re interested, email Hiroko at TasTAFE. Home.Tutor.ELS@ tastafe.tas.edu.au for more information.

A CAMPAIGN to address the critical shortage of volunteers in residential aged care facilities hopes to inspire more Tasmanians to experience the sense of community that volunteering provides and help make a real difference to the lives of some of our most vulnerable residents.

National volunteer numbers fell dramatically during the height of COVID, with

more than 70 per cent of volunteers unable to assist as a result of the pandemic.

Now the Reengaging Volunteers into Residential Aged Care Facilities program is offering thousands of new and experienced volunteers an opportunity to experience the satisfaction of giving back to the community.

Volunteers are needed for non-clinical social

support to help in aged care facilities, providing companionship and assisting with leisure activities.

Volunteers - who will need to complete a short online training session and police checks, and show proof of COVID and flu vaccination - will be matched with one of the hundreds of facilities that have registered for the program, which will run until August.

“The program is an important initiative to reinvigorate volunteering in aged care,” Volunteering Tasmania CEO Dr Lisa Schimanski said.

“Volunteering has always been a vital part of the non-clinical care in aged care facilities, with data clearly showing that a sense of social engagement and companionship has a meaningful impact on the quality of life and

Giving back makes a comeback: aged care volunteers heed the call mental wellbeing of our most vulnerable citizens.

“Volunteer programs only ever seek to complement, not replicate or replace, the functions of a paid professional workforce.

They provide assistance, companionship and support to residents, which is essential to their wellbeing.

“The volunteers we are calling for won’t replace paid workers in hands-on care roles,

but will instead provide vital companionship and social connection through conversations, games and outings, in a time when connection has been hampered.

“Volunteering has a vital role in aged care and we welcome this program as key part of the holistic care our most important citizens deserve.”

Australia’s volunteering peak bodies are committed

to making the volunteering process as easy as possible, offering all the necessary training and paperwork and matching each volunteer with the most appropriate aged care facility.

Incat’s new vessel, the ‘Santa Monica 1’, undergoes sea trials in the Derwent

Incat ship goes Community top priority for Wilkie from Derwent to South Korea DERWENT Park-based high speed catamaran company Incat Tasmania is breaking new ground with its latest vessel, which is bound for South Korea.

Designed and built for leading South Korean transport company Seaworld Express Ferry, the 76m wave-piercing catamaran ‘Santa Monica 1’ will ply a new route between the islands of Jindo and Jeju, off the south coast of South Korea.

Capable of accommodating 621 passengers and crew and 86 cars at speeds of more than 40 knots, the Santa Monica 1 boasts vastly improved speed and fuel consumption and also provides a smoother ride and an enhanced onboard experience for both passengers and crew.

The order from Seaworld came in March 2020, during the early stages of the COVID pandemic, when things were looking bleak for the global ferry industry.

At a time when most of the world’s ferry fleets were tied up at wharves because tourists were not able to travel, the order allowed Incat to keep its team of 450 shipyard staff busy through a difficult period.

Incat was already

a familiar name in Korean waters, with the company delivering its first vessel to South Korea – the ‘Sunflower’ back in 1995.

Incat Tasmania chairman Bob Clifford said Seaworld Express Ferry ordered the Santa Monica 1 after inspecting the Incat-built 112m high speed ferry ‘Natchan Rera’ in Taiwan in 2019.

“Impressed with how much more advanced this wavepiercing catamaran was compared with other vessels operating in South Korean waters, Seaworld Express Ferry knew immediately that taking this Incat Tasmania design and production expertise and applying it to a customised bespoke vessel would represent a significant step up for South Korean high speed ferry operations,” he said.

Seaworld Express chairman Hyuk Young Lee said the company was impressed by Incat’s “modern shipyard facilities, the advanced passenger safety systems incorporated into the design, the very high levels of onboard passenger comfort, and the yard’s record for on-time and on-budget deliveries with some of the lowest warranty claims in the fast ferry industry”.

pensions and payments above the poverty line.

“I’m a strong advocate for developing a National Housing Strategy,” he said.

“The Federal Government must take the reins to address the housing crisis, including by increasing Commonwealth Rent Assistance, boosting the number of social housing dwellings, and reforming capital gains tax and negative gearing.

“Many Tasmanians are also struggling to access the healthcare they need.

“It’s time for much greater investment in the public health system

INDEPENDENT Member for Clark Andrew Wilkie has launched his 2022 federal election campaign, citing the needs of the community as a top priority.

Mr Wilkie was elected to Federal Parliament in 2010 representing Clark, which was then called Denison.

Seeking re-election for a fifth term, Mr Wilkie said the major issues facing residents in Clark were housing, health and transport, much of which contributed to the soaring cost of living, as well as the urgent need to lift government

ent

d n e ep

to make all forms of healthcare, including mental and dental care, affordable for the community.”

On a national level, Mr Wilkie said climate change was the most significant issue and netzero carbon emissions had to be reached by 2035 or sooner.

Cleaning up the corruption in Canberra is also of great importance.

“Both parties need to commit to laying out a detailed roadmap and that includes rapidly phasing out coal, gas and oil, and fasttracking to 100 per cent renewables,” he said.

Throughout his time as Independent Member for Clark, Mr Wilkie has secured more than $1.5 billion in federal funding for projects in the electorate.

This includes $2 million for an all-access playspace at Gliblins Street Reserve in Goodwood which has recently gone to tender.

The $12.8 million soccer funding and $6 million YMCA projects have also made progress, with deeds of agreements finally signed between Glenorchy City Council and the Commonwealth, and between the YMCA and the Commonwealth.

“It’s great to see these fantastic community projects get off the ground,” he said.

“They are so important in helping enhance our communities and help improve the health and wellbeing of everyone.”

Mr Wilkie said in the event of a hung Parliament he wouldn’t do any formal deals with either party and instead listen to the community and consider all issues on their merit.

“What constitutes merit is the sum of many considerations including the views of the community and my conscience,” he said.

GCC take innovative approach to road fix

“Glenorchy Reads”: reading help for all ages and abilities THE Glenorchy 26TEN community will launch a new reading campaign called ‘Glenorchy Reads’ in May, aimed at improving reading skills among all ages and abilities.

Anyone can get involved in the Glenorchy Reads campaign, which will promote reading through a series of activities highlighting free reading, writing and math support in the Glenorchy municipality.

One of the first events in the campaign will be the popular National Simultaneous Storytime.

National Simultaneous Storytime

is held each year, with families across Australia reading the same book together at the same time.

Mayor Bec Thomas will read this year’s title - ‘Family Tree’ by Josh Pyke – at the Glenorchy Library at 11am on Wednesday 25 May. “One in two Tasmanians currently do not have the reading, writing or math capacity to function well in today’s world,” Mayor Thomas said.

“Improving these skills provides opportunities for a person to better manage their own health, thrive in their job, support children

and family with school, or be safer at work.”

With National Volunteer Week coming up in May, anyone interested in supporting local community members to improve their reading, writing or math skills by becoming a volunteer literacy tutor should get in contact with Glenorchy City Council.

Businesses, Community services and clubs keen to get involved in Glenorchy Reads are also strongly encouraged to get in touch.

“This campaign is about the whole community embracing

the importance of improving reading, writing and math skills,” Mayor Thomas said.

“We want local businesses, community services, clubs and individuals to get involved.

“Whether you can host an event, improve literacy support for your staff or volunteer as a literacy tutor - we want you!”

Glenorchy Reads will run until the end of 2022. To find out more, visit the Glenorchy Council website or facebook. com/GlenorchyReads, or phone Terri Maher on 6216 6800.

GLENORCHY Council has saved both time and money by taking an innovative approach to upgrading an unsealed road in Collinsvale.

The conventional ‘re-sheeting’ approach involves placing more than 100mm of fresh gravel on the road, at a substantial cost.

On unsealed roads that are subject to heavy rain and surrounded by dense vegetation - like Fairy Glen Road at Collinsvale - the re-sheeting method is not as successful.

“Roads like this can be saturated for months, with water causing recurring potholes, corrugation, rutting and

potentially more serious failures in the road base,” Glenorchy Council works manager Clive Thompson said.

During a recent routine maintenance request the GCC team decided to try a different approach, known as ‘milling’, and it worked.

Milling, which involves precisely excavating only the failed areas of the wearing surface, leaving the road base untouched, is very common on sealed roads but unheard of for unsealed roads.

The road was ‘top dressed’ with 35mm of fresh gravel – far less than the standard 100mm.

Using less gravel means less ongoing problems that can result from excessive material being introduced, including clogged drainage and increased potential for a landslip.

“All these outcomes were considered by the crew onsite and the result will protect the longevity and safety of the site in the future,” Mr Thompson said.

“Asset maintenance is a core function of local government and, thanks to the innovation, skill and expertise of Glenorchy Council’s road crew, we know we have the right people on the job.”

TasWater Project Engineer Michael Evans with the new biogas flare at the Cameron Bay Sewage Treatment Plant

Odour reduction at Berriedale plant A PROJECT designed to significantly reduce odour at the Cameron Bay Sewage Treatment Plant in Berriedale will reach a major milestone during April.

A biogas flare has been installed at the treatment plant, which is situated next to the Museum of Old and New Art. “Due to the treatment process at the plant, the site produces biogas

which can be odorous,” TasWater Capital Delivery Office Project Manager Derrick Clack said.

“The flare which we have now installed is burning the biogas to the atmosphere. By burning it you remove the odour and the subsequent harmful effects it can have to the environment.

“The flare is also completely automated, which makes it more

reliable. It senses the pressure inside the plant and burns off the odour before it gets released into the atmosphere.

“Now we are entering the second phase of the project which features the dewatering of the sludge at the site through the use of a rotary screw press.

“The sludge which comes out of the treatment process has odour, but we will be

completely covering it up and installing ventilated bins which will control and mitigate odour at the site.”

The rotary screw press will also allow dewatering to happen more efficiently.

Essential services will not be disrupted throughout the course of the project, which is on track for completion by the end of the year.

Thousands to head ‘To The North’ for next pop-up market THOUSANDS of people are expected to head ‘To The North’ next month for the second instalment of a popular pop-up community market in Moonah.

The inaugural ‘To The North’ event was held in early June last year and proved to be a huge success, with about 4000 people attending.

Organisers hope there’ll be an even bigger turnout for the second instalment, which will take over Albert Road on Sunday 5 June.

Driven by the desire to give back to the community, the not-forprofit event was created

by St Albi Bar + Eatery owner Lucy Baker, who was determined to transform Albert Rd into a place where people could come together to dance, sing, shop and interact in a positive way.

Last year’s event was supported financially by the Glenorchy City Council’s ‘Showcase Moonah’ placemaking program.

Despite a lack of financial support from council or government this year, the team behind To The North felt it was important to forge on and make sure the event could be held again – even bigger and better than before.

After last year’s event attracted nearly 50 stallholders, the 2022 market is set to expand its footprint even further and offer a wide range of arts, crafts, clothing and fresh Tasmanian produce from more than 70 stallholders.

Local artists Tom Deams and Joel Gajda will paint for the duration of the market to create a huge graffiti canvas; while kids can enjoy the ‘Build Your

Own Creative Home’ LEGO playspace presented by event sponsor Creative Homes Hobart.

The market will also showcase some of the area’s best performing talent, including live music from a number of buskers.

A Welcome to Country will be performed by Craig Everett; the Taiko Drummers will fill the street with noise; there’ll be storytelling by Tamas from Roaming Trees; and the Latin Spring Dancers will perform alongside the South Side Steppers.

And the RSPCA will even offer a ‘Puppy Parking’ service to ensure nobody is left out.

The VXT Introduction to Housekeeping course has been designed by industry professionals to support both local Tasmanian businesses and individuals who are seeking employment and need further training.

“We offered five out of the seven participants a position and the seventh person went to our sister hotel, Hadleys,” The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel Executive Housekeeper Trish Grundy said.

“The people that joined the course actually

wanted to work in housekeeping and find secure employment.

“Everyone who did the course was just great, they got straight into it and were really keen to get jobs.

“I would love to have this course run every year, to support us through the overturning of staff.”

VXT CEO Emilie Donovan said the organisation is playing a key role in addressing the skilled worker and labour shortage within the hospitality industry.

“Tasmania's tourism

and hospitality industries are vital to our future economic sustainability and as the sector continues to recover from the impacts of COVID, industry-led hospitality training is vital to ensure we have the right workforce to support the industry,” Emilie said.

“Unaccredited, flexible, industry-specific training provides the skills necessary to underpin the provision of quality guest experiences and to build the capability in teams, especially in regional areas.”

Launching into Learning is a fantastic way to integrate new parents and children into their local school community.

“Making connections with other families and primary educators gives parents and carers muchneeded support in the early years of their child’s development,” she said.

“Supporting children’s learning experiences before they begin school helps with successful transitions once they start school.”

The Launching into Learning program is open to Tasmanian families with children from birth to four years of age, and is available in all Tasmanian Government schools and Child and Family Learning Centres.

A NEW Tasmanian has found work through a training program delivered by VXT and The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel.

The two organisations partnered earlier this year to deliver a training solution to meet an urgent need for housekeeping staff.

Agnes Pluta was struggling to find work after relocating from Poland with her Tasmanian husband and two children at the end of last year.

She registered for the VXT housekeeping course after seeing it posted on Facebook by the Migrant Resource Centre.

Although she was experiencing language barriers, Agnes found the course to be very supportive and empowering.

“I felt very supported in the training session and felt I was able to relate to other course participants,” Agnes said.

“I would not have had the confidence to walk into a hotel or store on my own and ask for a job, so this course was great for my confidence.”

Agnes has now been working at The Old

and Family Learning Centre to socialise with other families and meet school educators in a relaxed and play-based environment.

Last month, Glenorchy Mayor Bec Thomas joined the Rosetta Primary School Launching into Learning group at Montrose Foreshore to hear a story, embark on a treasure hunt and play in the park.

Members of the Glenorchy Youth Task Force, who planned and delivered the recent Market on the Lawns event

Market kicks off Youth Week

Bradley Comins, Kirsten Bacon and head judge Mike Goddard test out entries in the Royal Tasmanian Fine Foods Awards

Fine foods on the menu for awards judges THE first of five sections in the 2022 Royal Tasmanian Fine Food Awards has been run and won, with judges tuning up their tastebuds at the Royal Hobart Showground on April 21-22 for the Tasmanian Flour Mills Bakery and Preserves category.

The Bakery and Preserves section attracted 240 entries from across Australia - up from 216 entries

last year – with judges enjoying a range of biscuits, cakes, sweet pastries, bread, rolls, chutneys, jellies, sauces, dressings and marmalades.

Tasmanian winners included Derwent Park’s Island Berries Tasmania (Preserves – Savoury); Lesley Black’s (Preserves - Savoury); Westbury’s Tasmanian Baking Studio and Bruny Island Traditional

Plum Puddings (Baked Products – Savoury); and Banjo’s Bakery and Sandy’s Sourdough (Breads and Rolls).

Previously held as one big celebration of food, the Awards are this year being held in several categories across five months, allowing for more seasonal entries, closer attention to individual categories, and a COVID-safe approach.

The next section to be judged will be Dairy and Plant-based Foods, in early June, followed

by Beverages (7-8 July); Seafood, Small Goods and Delicatessen (4-5 August); and Olive Oil, Pantry Items, Other Products and Sweet/ Spicy (1-2 September).

THE talents of young makers and entertainers were showcased at a recent Glenorchy Youth Task Force event, held on the Glenorchy City Council Lawns as part of Youth Week Tasmania celebrations.

More than 400 people of all ages enjoyed the shopping, activities, entertainment and food on offer at the Market on the Lawns event on 1 April, kicking off a string of Youth Week activities across the state.

Many local young people were involved in organizing and running the event, including 10 young stallholders selling a wide range of products.

Three of the young stallholders were participating

in a market for the first time including Maddison Bone, who sold handmade jewelry, candles and crochet pieces.

Maddison also won the Best Stall Display award, presented by the Glenorchy Youth Task Force.

“I have been selling my handmade items at school and taking orders, but this is my first market and I am really pleased with what I’ve sold,” she said.

“I have now set up an Instagram page (@ shoptheopheliacollective) hoping to grow my business even further.”

Market on the Lawns also hosted featured live graffiti art by Create Crew, stalls with

information from youth support services, music by local musicians Selby Targett and Nikia Powell, and a free barbecue provided by The Salvation Army.

Glenorchy Mayor Bec Thomas attended the market and encouraged the Glenorchy Youth Task Force to continue to activate the Council lawns area.

“The Youth Week Market was a great success and I thank Task Force members for their efforts in bringing the event together,” she said.

“It created a really positive vibe on Council lawns and I encourage them to continue to use this space for activities that bring people together.”

Glenorchy City Council meeting news – April 2022 GLENORCHY City Council’s most recent ordinary meeting was held on Tuesday, 26 April. The meeting marked the return to inperson meetings, with all Aldermen present in the Council Chambers and members of the public also in attendance for the first time since December 2021.

Council adopts visionary plan for Glenorchy CBD

Council has adopted an exciting new vision for the Glenorchy CBD, with the unanimous adoption of Glenorchy CityScape Civic Heart Masterplan.

Released for public consultation in March, the vision outlined in the masterplan would transform the central precinct into a modern, efficient and accessible hub for all community services.

The masterplan which applies to the area in and around the Council forecourt, library, bus mall and Main Road - envisages a central plaza for markets, events and festivals; a childcare centre; a multigenerational play space; a cultural garden; and a plaza for informal recreation.

Implementation of the vision will take place over the next 10 to 15 years, with funding to be sought from state and federal governments and private investment.

The Masterplan can be

Council to review core services

Council will review its service offerings, to better focus services on community priorities and improve Council’s financial sustainability.

A report from Council’s General Manager identified a need to put Council on a firmer financial footing following a series of external and internal shocks that have impacted on finances.

These include the significant management restructure in 2015 and the associated redundancy costs; the loss of water and sewerage revenue in 2008; the 2016 Board of Inquiry costs; and the community assistance provided during the COVID pandemic.

The report noted that Council’s Aldermen had asked for an investigation of the benefits of an increased focus on “core” services and to better understand the cost of “non-core” service delivery.

Council instructed its General Manager to prepare a project business case for the review of Council services in time for its next meeting in May.

Increased recognition for assistance dogs in new dog management policy

Following an extensive period of community engagement, Council has formally adopted its updated Dog Management Policy 2022.

The review of the policy has resulted in changes to the old policy, which was last reviewed in 2018, including: • The declaration of a number of new dog exercise areas in the city; • Increasing registration fees for declared dangerous dogs; and • Allowing ‘assistance dogs’, which provide support to vulnerable people or people with a disability, into prohibited and restricted areas that could previously only be accessed by guide dogs and hearing dogs.

Allowing assistance dogs to access prohibited and restricted areas goes beyond what is contemplated in the legislation and is an important step in recognising the vital support assistance dogs provide to people with disabilities in our community.

It follows Council’s decision in early 2021 to also provide an exemption from dog registration fees for assistance dogs.

The new Dog Management Policy 2022 is available through Council’s website and Customer Service Centre.

Senator Eric Abetz, Glenorchy Mayor Bec Thomas, outgoing Goodwood Community Centre manager Rachel French and Independent Member for Clark Andrew Wilkie at Giblins Reserve

One step closer to playtime in Goodwood GLENORCHY Council is one step closer to establishing its inclusive, accessible regional playspace at Giblins Reserve in Goodwood, with tenders called for the construction of the much-anticipated new community facility.

The playspace will feature state-of-the-art equipment designed to be accessible to all. There will also be nature and water play areas, walking tracks, picnic areas and BBQ facilities, and a new accessible toilet.

In late 2019 the council received approval

for a $2m Federal Government grant, secured by Independent MP Andrew Wilkie.

The council committed a further $1.4m towards the project, which was designed using ideas from the local community and advocates like the Goodwood Community Centre.

“It’s fantastic to finally see progress on the Giblins Reserve Playspace,” Mr Wilkie said.

“Goodwood is a wonderful community with many families who

have been calling for an all-access playspace for many years.

“This installation will provide a lot of joy to young people and facilitate health and wellbeing.

“I am delighted to have helped bring this project to life and must congratulate outgoing Goodwood Community Centre manager Rachel French for the role she played in getting the ball rolling back in 2014.”

Glenorchy Mayor Bec Thomas is excited to see the project one step closer to being

shovel-ready, with the council to now review applications as part of the tender review process.

“Council is delivering a fully accessible and inclusive space for everyone who loves to play,” she said.

“This playspace uses ideas and feedback from the community and I can’t wait to see their designs come to life.

“I am hopeful that we will find a successful applicant from this tender and move on to the next stage of the project very soon.”

Collinsvale Primary’s persuasive park ideas COLLINSVALE Primary School might be tiny, with only 65 students, but those kids have plenty of big ideas for their local community.

Students have been advocating for improvements to Collinsvale Park on Hall Rd, with Middle Class students writing letters to the Glenorchy City Council and a number of local politicians including Liberal Member for Clark Elise Archer and Labor Elwick MLC Josh Willie.

“The students contacted me regarding improvements to Collinsvale Park, including exciting plans for a number of play equipment upgrade initiatives to make the park useable for all ages and abilities,” Ms Archer said.

“As a long-time supporter of Collinsvale

Primary School it was my pleasure to be able to visit again and spend some time with the Middle Class students to discuss their ideas and give them advice on how to approach the local council and also apply for grant funding.

“The ideas they have developed demonstrate a clear love of their local area and the importance of community.

“There could be a politician or two amongst them with the leadership and advocacy skills they displayed!”

The Glenorchy City Council recently responded to the students’ submissions, advising them that the council is currently working on plans to redevelop the playground.

Mr Willie said he had received a number of “very

persuasive” letters from Collinsvale Primary students highlighting the importance of a playspace in a community.

“I visited the school to listen to students, committing to progressing an upgrade to their local park and looking to do the same in other areas across the northern suburbs,” he said.

Mr Willie said Collinsvale Park and ten other local playspaces would benefit from Federal Labor’s $1.5 million commitment for upgrades and new facilities that provide modern, accessible and inclusive playspaces.

Playspaces identified as being in need of renewal include Booth Avenue Reserve, Barossa Road Reserve and Cairnduff Reserve in Glenorchy; Battersby

Drive Reserve and Windermere Bay in Claremont; Alkoo Circle Reserve in Chigwell; Collinsvale Reserve in Collinsvale; Chandos Drive in Berriedale; Cooinda Park in West Moonah; and Roseneath Reserve in Austins Ferry.

“Many of Glenorchy’s existing Playspaces are tired and in much need of renewal,” Mr Willie said.

“There are more than 40 existing play spaces in Glenorchy that are more than 20 years old.

“In addition, there is an under-provision of play spaces in emerging areas of the city which will require development in future.

“Now is the time to invest in local assets that not only support local jobs through construction but revive our communities.”

Richard Duggan and Shane Dewsbery discuss the benefits of the new app

NEC Australia and TassieLink driving a better experience for local commuters

A TASMANIAN community leader and disability advocate has embarked on an invaluable 12-month development program, taking on the role of Intern Director on the Tasmanian Community Fund (TCF) Board.

Hobart’s Alysse Gavlik, who lives with a disability acquired from a motor vehicle crash, has recently commenced her volunteer role for 2022 and will be mentored by TCF Chairperson Sally Darke.

Ms Gavlik is a member of the Premier’s Disability Advisory Committee and Women with Disability Australia and is the Senior Consultant, Community Development and Engagement with the Road Safety Branch of the Department of State Growth.

In her new role with the TCF Ms Gavlik will travel the state and

attend board meetings throughout the year, participate in board discussions, observe the grant assessment process, and assess applications.

Ms Gavlik said she was looking forward to experiencing how the TCF operated and how strategy guides grant assessment and decisionmaking processes.

“I also want to gain the skills, knowledge and experience to better engage with organisations that have an impact on people with a disability, because often people with a disability are underrepresented in the leadership roles within those organisations,” she said.

“My ultimate goal and passion for people with a disability is for us to be included in society in a meaningful way, and gaining meaningful employment is a big part of that.

“I became a

quadriplegic from a motor vehicle crash and my physical disability is very visible, but there are many people who have a disability that can’t be seen and it is important that they are heard and understood by all of society.

“I enjoy bringing the perspective of people with a disability to the TCF board table, because everyone’s on a journey of understanding disability better and I have an opportunity to accelerate it.”

Ms Darke said Ms Gavlik was the second person to take on the role of Intern Director, which had been developed to build the capacity of Tasmanians to serve on boards and to broaden the diversity of the TCF Board.

“We have long recognised the opportunity to develop our community leaders, and this role in

particular is excellent for participants wanting to build their governance skills,” she said.

“Not only is Alysse a committed advocate for people with a disability in Tasmania, but she has a strong desire to improve her governance and leadership skills, which will assist her greatly in her work and roles representing people living with a disability.

“The TCF board and staff are benefitting from the perspectives Alysse brings to discussions, particularly ensuring we consider all aspects of disability and how we continue to build a more inclusive community through the work we do.”

The Tasmanian Community Fund was established in 1999 after the sale of a community asset. Since then the fund has distributed more than $120 million to more than 3100 grants.

broader community.

“We’re thrilled to partner with TassieLink and deliver Tasmania’s first fully automated, real time passenger update service,” he said.

“Safety and efficiency are key focus areas for TassieLink, given its expansive footprint into remote and regional areas of Tasmania.

“NEC’s smart transport solutions, like the new Transit Management System, deliver increased safety and peace of mind - not just to the local commuters but to families, schools, carers and service providers like TassieLink.”

TassieLink Managing Director Shane Dewsbery said the new system perfectly addresses the needs of TassieLink’s customers.

“Tassie is a unique landscape, and our services are vital for so many locals to get to where they need to be,” he said.

“Real time updates with the new Transport Management System

means we will keep our commuters better informed of any delays or changes to their chosen service.

“This means better planning and navigation of their journey; vulnerable travellers can reduce the time spent waiting at isolated bus stops; and parents or guardians of passengers can monitor the bus journeys in real time making pick-ups and drop offs significantly safer and easier to plan.”

NEC’s Transport Management Solution is available via a free mobile app (iOS users) or mobile website (Android users). TassieLink buses are equipped with QR codes to allow for easy download for all passengers.

“This is a very exciting first step in a more connected Tasmania,” Mr Duggan said.

“We look forward to continuing our work with TassieLink and creating a bright future for the Tasmanian community.”

Students from VET Automotive working in their new learning space

GYC students bounce back after fire Actors Brian Andrews, Sam Pyefinch and Kate Vosper rehearse for the Hobart Rep production of Go Back For Murder

Go back to the Playhouse - this time, for Murder!

AGATHA Christie’s murderously magical writing returns to the Playhouse Theatre this June, as the Hobart Repertory Theatre Society invites audiences to ‘Go Back For Murder’.

An unusual take on the traditional murdermystery, ‘Go Back For Murder’ is a 1960 adaptation by Christie of her 1942 Hercule Poirot novel ‘Five Little Pigs’.

‘Go Back For Murder’ takes audiences on a journey through time, as characters recall what happened on a fateful day 15 years earlier - when a man was murdered!

After receiving a letter from beyond the grave, Carla Crale believes her mother, who died in prison, was wrongly convicted of her father’s murder.

In a passionate attempt to clear her name, she persuades those present on the day of her father’s death to return to the scene of the crime and recount their version of events.

Can the witnesses be trusted?

Can Carla solve her father’s murder once and for all?

All will be revealed when live theatre returns to Hobart’s Playhouse

Theatre in June, with experienced director Scott Hunt – known for his work on previous shows including ‘An Appointment with Death’, ‘Hound of the Baskervilles’ and ‘Haebeus Corpus’ putting his own unique spin on this classic piece.

Audiences can join the investigation when Hobart Rep presents ‘Go Back For Murder’ at the Playhouse Theatre in Bathurst St, Hobart from 10-25 June.

Tickets are available now, go to playhouse. org.au or phone 62341536 for bookings.

GUILFORD Young College has been steadfast in their response to the recent fire that struck the Trade Training Centre at the College’s Glenorchy Campus.

“We wanted to act quickly and ensure that no students learning was disrupted,” GYC Principal Craig Deayton said.

“Our VET staff have done such an amazing job of planning alternatives in new facilities and maintaining program continuity under such exceptionally difficult circumstances.

“The students have actually played a big part

in the rebuilding of these learning spaces and we are so humbled by their efforts in helping.”

Students from several VET and TASC courses affected by the fire have been busy helping their teachers convert ordinary spaces around the Campus into new learning spaces.

This has meant both teachers and students have input into the development of these new rooms, and provides students with a sense of purpose and pride.

VET Automotive classes are now being

held in a renovated Outdoor Education storage facility, and other classes such as VET Engineering and VET Electrotechnology have been moved to classrooms that are easily repurposed.

Demolition of the current site is now underway, however the College is already moving ahead to plan for the Glenorchy Campus’ new Trade Training Centre.

This will house improved facilities and provide learning spaces for all the College’s trade-based courses.

“Although devastated by the loss of our Trade Training Centre, we have already commenced planning for our new facilities and shortly we will discuss those plans with staff and students,” Mr Deayton said.

“We have no firm timeline yet on when we can finish the rebuild but we are moving ahead without delay.”

Those who want to hear more about the VET courses available at GYC or want to find out about enrolling for 2023 are encouraged to attend the College’s Open Information Nights.

Roberts Real Estate sales consultant Dallas Joiner

Dallas brings wealth of local expertise to Roberts Glenorchy ROBERTS Real Estate sales consultant Dallas Joiner is helping northern suburbs residents buy and sell property, working out of the same iconic Glenorchy building he would shop at as a child.

The Roberts Real Estate Glenorchy team have been based in the high-profile building at 338 Main Road for more than 20 years, with the office recently undergoing a major renovation designed to provide an even better experience for clients.

But long before it was a real estate office, the building housed a shoe store where generations of locals – including Dallas – shopped for footwear.

“When I was a kid my mum would take me to Honey’s Shoe Shop on the corner of Main Road and Eady Street to buy my school shoes,” he said.

“Who would have thought, here I am now working from this landmark Glenorchy

building.”

When Dallas began his career in the early 2000s, he worked as a personal assistant at a local firm.

“This helped in my development and knowledge of the industry and was paramount to forging a career,” he said.

Passionate about the real estate industry, he slowly worked his way up and is now in a leading sales role at Roberts.

“Offering my clients professional advice is so important when talking them through the selling and buying process,” he said.

“My aim is to make the transaction go as smoothly as possible.”

Now with nearly a decade of experience at Roberts Real Estate, Dallas has only positive things to say about his time with the company so far.

“We work so well as a team,” he said.

“While providing a professional service

in sales and property management, we also have plenty of laughs along the way.”

Dallas has seen many changes in the industry throughout his career, and is currently seeing the increased presence of social media as a selling and buying tool.

“Social media is trending at a rapid rate, with people looking to purchase keeping an eye out for properties on this media platform,” he said.

“Roberts Real Estate have a Facebook page and individual agents throughout the company have individual pages.”

The ever-changing nature of the role appeals to Dallas. But one thing always stays the same - the feeling he gets when he helps someone to buy their dream home.

“I still get a buzz when I make a call to a purchaser saying, ‘congratulations your offer has been accepted and you have just bought yourself a home’,” he said.

Prayer and healing: explore the connection CHRISTIAN Science practitioner and international speaker Fujiko Signs will present a free live web lecture next month, open to the community.

Hosted in Hobart by the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Ms Signs’ ‘God’s-eye view of you’ talk will focus on universal healing precepts found in the Holy Bible, especially in Christ Jesus’ life and teachings, and

show how they are available for anyone to understand and experience through the lens of Christian Science.

“We will explore the relationship between prayer and healing through the universal divine truth that unites us,” Ms Signs said.

“We will talk about the practical understanding of God as ever-present love.”

Sharing examples of

healing from her own life and professional practice of Christian Science, Ms Signs will explain why Christian Science is both Christian and scientific, meaning that people can prove its effectiveness for themselves.

This concept is further described in the book ‘Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures’ by Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the Christian

A GLIMPSE of what Hobart’s newest school could look like in the future has been revealed with the release of the draft master plan for Hobart City High School.

The long-term master plan identifies options for providing modern facilities across the high school’s Ogilvie and New Town campuses.

The Tasmanian Government has committed $21.6 million for improvements across both sites.

Education Minister Roger Jaensch said the draft master plan provided the foundation for determining the infrastructure priorities for the school and its community.

“The Government committed funding for Hobart City High School in our election promises to ensure the new school will have contemporary facilities to support students and staff,” he said.

“As many Tasmanians can attest, the buildings

currently on the campuses have served our community well.

But now we’re excited to look to the future together.

“The master plan is still at draft stage and consultation is currently underway so that students, staff and the broader community can be part of shaping the school’s future.

“Having a master plan that the community has provided input into also helps us consider the future of both campuses and what might be possible.”

Lead Principal of Hobart City High School, Deb Day, said consultation with staff had already taken place to inform development of the draft master plan.

“Workshops with staff were held in 2021 to talk about the vision for education at our school, and the infrastructure needed to support this,” Ms Day said.

“The master plan reflects much of this feedback, but it’s still a

draft and our students, staff and community are passionate and engaged about the future of our school.

“I expect that the

Are your hearing aids in the drawer? You are not alone!

“I AM often confronted with stories of hearing aids bought years ago that are in the drawers,” Ability Hearing audiologist Heidi Modrovich says.

Why would anyone spend thousands of dollars on hearing aids and not wear them?

A recent Finnish study found that ten per cent of people who purchase hearing aids never wear them.

Sixty-five per cent of these patients gave up wearing their hearing aids because they were still having difficulties hearing in noisy environments

A recent study found that 10 per cent of hearing aids end up in the drawer

like restaurants and crowds.

“This is, in part, due to a mismatch of the correct technology to a person’s hearing needs,” Heidi says.

“Working out what the wearer’s feedback is and translating this into the programming of complex hearing technology requires experience.”

The good news is with that as technology improves, the trend of hearing aid noncompliance is declining globally. Often, people don’t realise that with hearing aids, there is an adjustment period

for your brain to get reconnected to the very noisy world we live in.

“Getting hearing aids is rarely a case of ‘fit and go’, as much as we want a magical solution,” Heidi says.

“Adapting to hearing aids takes time and patience, and guidance from an audiologist who recognizes that one size does not fit all.”

#ADOPT Ten Lives _ Gazette - 4 Cats 1 Pic Blurb _ ADOPT.indd 1

13/04/2022 1:30:11 PM

Ten Lives Cat Centre volunteers all have one thing in common Rich East, of Ten Lives Cat Centre WHEN considering volunteering at a cat shelter, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it’s all about feeding the kitties and tidying litter trays.

Look further and you’ll find that there are a diverse range of roles that contribute to the success of a shelter like Ten Lives Cat Centre.

Aside from the animal attendants who perform those vital daily tasks in caring for the cats, there is also a dedicated team of Op Shop volunteers responsible for sorting donated goods, creating window displays, running the stores, and caring for the resident kitties.

Drivers run supplies between the stores and transport the Op Shop cats when they have been assigned to a store to wait for their new

homes – precious cargo indeed!

Volunteers on the Creative Team are responsible for taking photos of the cats and using their skills to promote them on social media.

Volunteers also assist with administration tasks and delivering the Edu.Cat education program in schools. Ten Lives operates a small vet surgery in which volunteer vet nurses get hands-on experience in the industry.

“As Southern Tasmania’s only dedicated cat management facility, we receive no government funding,” Manager Noel Hunt said.

“So we rely on the support of our amazing volunteers, some of whom have been contributing for many years.”

In the 2021 calendar year, 191 volunteers

contributed more than 23,000 hours in positions all around the Centre and Op Shops.

That is an extraordinary contribution to the welfare of the cats in Ten Lives’ care, whether it be through their direct care and support, or raising much needed funds to keep the Centre operating.

“We strive to make sure our volunteer program is rewarding, not just for the cats, but for the volunteers themselves,” Volunteer Coordinator Jon Harvey said.

“We are constantly reviewing and improving the program, to make sure it is best practice, not only for our cats and their welfare but also for our volunteers and their experiences.”

Since becoming a member of Volunteering Tasmania, Ten Lives

has aligned its program with best practice within the state and the national standards for volunteering.

It’s not just the cats that benefit.

Many people have discovered through volunteering they get back what they put in, whether from the achievement that their contribution is helping animals in need, or from the sense of community they get from being a part of a team.

“Members of our volunteer Creative Team get to learn new skills and develop existing ones in a realworld environment,” Marketing and Communications Manager Joel Diprose said.

“It’s great to be able to give someone a glowing reference and see them move into paid work, whether they are here for three

months or three years.”

Jon encourages anyone interested in contributing at Ten Lives to visit tenlives.com.au or contact the Centre.

“No experience is necessary - there’s always a way in which you can help,” he said.

“We greatly appreciate everyone who has contributed over the years. We truly have a remarkable and diverse team.”

Though, there is one thing that all volunteers have in common: a passion for community, environment, and of course, cats.

Ten Lives Cat Shelter is a self-funded animal charity that relies on donations and volunteers to care for and rehome the unwanted cats and kittens of Tasmania.

IN my work as a holistic personal trainer and health coach I often come across people who report that their brain isn’t working with the clarity it once did.

They mention brain fog and forgetfulness, a sense of mental overwhelm, and that they can’t think straight.

Sometimes there’s a real fear that “this is the start of the end”, symptoms of early onset dementia, mini-stroke or natural ageing.

My role is not to diagnose but to join the dots and work on lifestyle changes that will unload a weary brain.

Here are my top five tips for managing stress naturally, particularly neural (brain) stress: 1. Address your schedule: If you are over-scheduled and simply way too busy, rectify this somehow – as a matter of health and your number one priority.

I see far too many people burning the candle at both ends and pushing themselves to sickness. Stress in the form of overscheduling can be very harmful to health.

It is no badge of honour to be busy all the time and unable to look after ourselves.

As the saying goes, put your own oxygen mask on first – you’ll be able to give more to others when you do this.

2. Micro-focus: Get up close to something in nature. Stop. Look.

Be still for a good five minutes.

What jumps out at you? What can you now see that you could not before? Colours? Living

beings? Water? Webs?

Sounds?

Within a few silent minutes you’ll literally feel different - calmer, more focused.

I’ve mentioned the term ‘forest bathing’ in previous articles, and you can read up on that on my website - jocc.com. au/forest-bathing 3. Nurture yourself: Take a bath; play with a pet; or pick some flowers and arrange them. Don’t set yourself a time limit, and do not rush this enjoy the moment and simplicity of the activity.

Notice the suggestions made here are free and free - free to do, and free to do anytime.

4. Laugh out loud: Whether you get together with some friends, watch a comedy or silly cat videos, schedule some time for laughter.

Try yoga laughter (it’s a thing - search for it!!).

Go crazy with laughter - the hormones released when you laugh are feel good, immunity boosting hormones. So don’t hold back! Laugh!

5. Walk in nature: Any advice coming from me is going to include walking or hiking in nature. Whether you are aiming to address physical, emotional, social or spiritual health, walking in nature covers all without you really trying!

I always feel more connected with myself, this place and the people around me after hiking and you will too!

IT’S time to talk about vitamin C and our immune systems.

A healthy immune system is particularly important as we enter into the normal winter season of colds, flu and other viruses.

Our immune systems defend our bodies against infection by firstly creating a barrier that stops invaders or antigens entering our bodies.

Should one slip past the barrier, the immune system then helps to attack and destroy these foreign substances.

Not surprisingly, when it comes to boosting our immunity there is a range of things we can all do such as eating a healthy diet rich in fruit and vegetables, getting adequate sleep, exercising regularly, limiting alcohol intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and adopting good personal hygiene.

Part of that healthy diet is ensuring we get sufficient intake of vitamin C. Vitamin C is well known as being a potent antioxidant as well as having a positive impact on immune function and skin health.

It is also vital for

collagen synthesis, connective tissue, bones, teeth and your small blood cells.

Because we cannot store vitamin C it is essential that we consume it regularly.

The richest sources of vitamin C can be found in the more exotic fruits like kakadu plum and acerola cherries. But we are fortunate that vitamin C is found in many everyday foods, with some of the highest levels contained in common fruit and vegetables.

Green vegetables such as kale, broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower and cabbage are all good sources of vitamin C, as are red peppers.

The other common source of vitamin C is fruit and fruit juice. Citrus fruit such as oranges and lemons are a good source of vitamin C along with blackcurrants, guava, kiwi and lychees.

Orange juice is possibly the most recognised and popular source of vitamin C. This is because of its great taste as well as the convenient and easy way to include it in your daily diet.

A 250ml glass of 100 per cent orange

juice contains 100mg of vitamin C, which is more than twice your recommended daily intake (RDI).

A glass of orange juice is not only full of immune-supporting vitamin C and folate but also includes natural polyphenolic flavonoid compounds.

The main polyphenol (which is almost exclusive to orange juice) is hesperidin, which also acts as an antiinflammatory.

As opposed to taking a vitamin supplement or pill, when you consume a glass of orange juice you are not only getting vitamin C but also folate, polyphenols and other components that all play a role in immune health.

The juice also provides hydration and the natural sugars of the fruit provide an energy boost as well.

A strong immune system requires general healthy lifestyle habits including diet. The morning ritual of orange juice, or a refreshing drink during the day can play an important role in a balanced and healthy diet and ensure you are getting your daily dose of vitamin C.

A FINANCIAL MOMENT

Budget 2022 Damian Gibson, Partner and Financial Advisor, Elevate Wealth*

AUSTRALIAN Federal Treasurer Josh Frydenberg handed down his fourth budget on Tuesday 29 March. There’s been speculation this budget was his hardest one yet.

With a very healthy unemployment rate, strong company balance sheets, oil at near all-time highs, and property prices roaring ahead, fuelling the inflationary fire was one issue the government had to consider when preparing budget 202223.

On top of inflation problems, the Coalition is also trying to win an election. This time, the Government cannot simply throw cash around to entice votes.

With budget repair on the backburner, the theme of this year’s budget is to help Australians combat the rising cost of living.

Here we will look at some of the Government’s proposed measures to help tackle this issue.

Increase to the low and middle income tax offset

The 2021/22 financial year will be the last year the low and middle income tax offset (LMITO) will be available. The current maximum LMITO is $1,080 for individuals and $2,160 for couples combined.

The Government has announced the LMITO will be increased by a

one-off non-refundable $420 ‘cost of living tax offset’ for the 2021/22 financial year. This one-off tax offset will increase the maximum LMITO to $1,500 per individual or $3,000 for

couples combined.

Your eligibility for LMITO is calculated automatically when you lodge your tax return.

The LMITO will depend on your income as shown below:

Cost of Living Payment

A $250 Cost of Living Payment will be paid in April 2022 to eligible recipients to help with the increased cost of living. The $250 payment will not count

towards your income test for payments and is not taxable.

The payment will be made to eligible recipients of the following payments and concession card holders:

Enhanced Paid Parental Leave scheme

Currently, primary carers may be eligible to receive Parental Leave Pay of $772.55 per week, for up to 18 weeks. Eligible recipients of Dad and Partner Pay also receive $772.55 per week but for a maximum of two weeks.

Unused amounts are not transferable between members of a couple.

The enhanced Paid Parental Leave scheme will provide greater flexibility between

couples as to how they share care and work responsibilities for newborn or adopted children.

The Dad and Partner Pay Scheme will be rolled into Parental Leave Pay to create a single scheme of up to 20 weeks. Paid Parental Leave can also be taken any time within two years of the birth or adoption of a child.

The income test will also be broadened to have an additional household income threshold of $350,000.

Couples can now choose how the 20 weeks of

fully flexible leave is allocated between each member of the couple.

Eligible single parents can also access an additional two weeks (for a total of 20 weeks) of Paid Parental Leave under the scheme.

Temporary cut in fuel excise tax

From 30 March 2022 onward, the excise that applies to petrol and diesel will be temporarily reduced by half to 22.1 cents per litre for six months.

This measure aims to help individuals, families

and businesses with cost of living pressures resulting from the increases in fuel costs which flow through to higher transport costs including the cost of goods and services.

Will you enjoy the cold Tasmanian weather this winter?

ALL Tasmanians know how cold our winters can get, how harsh our climate can be on ourselves and our families, and how time-consuming and expensive it can be to heat our homes.

But ... what if there was an affordable, safe, sustainable, healthy and environmentally friendly way to heat our homes without the hassle of collecting and cutting firewood?

Wouldn’t it make a big difference to you and your loved ones to have the pleasure and comfort of having every room in your house heated to your ideal comfort level, rather than just heating one room and leaving

the rest of the house freezing?

Hydronic Home Heating might be the solution you’re looking for.

Kev now has more than 30 years of extensive and varied experience in the plumbing, gas and mechanical heating

industries in Australia and the UK. After moving to Tasmania in 2011 Kev noticed the need for his expertise, and decided to offer all Tasmanians a reliable, safe and suitable home heating option.

Respecting Tassie carers Carers Tasmania CEO David Brennan

ON 14 April 2022, the Tasmanian Government released the draft Carer Recognition Bill and is now seeking feedback from carers and the broader community.

The consultation period is an opportunity for people in the community to read the draft Bill and either agree with it or suggest changes before it is considered by Parliament.

Carers Tasmania and Care2Serve CEO David Brennan said Tasmania is currently the only Australian state or territory which does not legally or formally recognise carers.

“Tasmania’s more than 80,000 unpaid, informal carers have long sought formal recognition and Carers Tasmania welcomes the release of a draft Bill that will get them deserved acknowledgement,” he said.

“I urge all family and friend carers to take the time to read the Bill and look at what we proposed for inclusion, and provide feedback about whether carers support the Bill as it is or would like to make suggestions for change.”

About one in six Tasmanians are currently providing care to a family member or friend who may have disability, mental ill health, a chronic or life limiting condition, alcohol or drug dependence, or who are frail or aged.

That’s why Carers Tasmania believes it is crucial that this legislation makes a practical and positive difference to the life of the state’s carers; and supports and promotes the routine identification of carers in Tasmania to ensure that they are connected to appropriate supports

to maintain their own mental, physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

Carers Tasmania also believes carers should be recognised, valued, have the opportunity to share their stories and experiences, and be included as experts as part of the care team.

In December 2021, Carers Tasmania submitted a response based on what carers told us they thought was important to be considered in this important legislation.

You can find our submission on our website: www.carerstas. org/wp-content/ uploads/2021/12/ Carers-TasmaniaResponse-to-the-CarerRecognition-LegislationDiscussion-Paper.pdf The draft Bill contains the following eight items listed under the Carer

Charter: 1. Carers should be acknowledged as diverse and are to be treated as individuals with their own needs within, and beyond, their roles as carers.

2. Carers should be consulted in relation to the development of programs, and the provision of resources, in so far as those programs and resources affect their role as carers.

3. Carers should be empowered to access information and services that are relevant to them in their role as carers.

4. Carers should be supported to participate in, and contribute to, the social, political, economic and cultural life of Tasmania.

5. Carers should be respected for

their valuable role in supporting persons in those persons’ homes and in supporting them to access, and engage in, a wide range of services.

6. Carers’ knowledge about the persons for whom they are caring should be respected, acknowledging that each carer, and each person being cared for, has both rights and responsibilities.

7. Carers should be able to raise concerns about decisions, and services, that affect them as carers or the persons for whom they are caring, without the carers or such persons suffering adverse repercussions.

8. Carers’ concerns about decisions, and services, that affect them as carers or that affect the persons for whom they are caring, are to be dealt

with as promptly as reasonably practicable.

What are your thoughts on the proposed charter items?

We are hopeful that this charter will be a charter of rights for carers, and that the items will be presented in a rightsbased format.

You can read the full draft Bill at www. communities.tas.gov. au/__data/assets/ pdf_file/0009/212400/ Draft-Carer-RecognitionBill-2022.pdf You can provide a written, video or audio submission by close of business Tuesday 10 May 2022, directly to the Department of Communities: Post: Carer Action Plan Communities Sport and Recreation, Department of Communities Tasmania GPO Box 65

Hobart, TAS 7001 Please include a name and contact details.

Email: carers.actionplan@ communities.tas.gov.au We will let you know when we receive your submission.

Please include a name and contact details.

Phone: 1300 135 513 if you have difficulty with your submission.

Alternatively, we encourage you to discuss your thoughts directly with us, as we are the peak body representing and supporting carers in Tasmania.

We would love to hear from you. You can phone us on 61443700 (Julie Ryan – Executive Policy Officer) or email peak@care2serve.com. au Remember submissions close on 10 May, so please get in quick!

Your lifestyle, your health Calvary can support you to stay at home longer with your Home Care Package

MANY older Australians want to live independently in the familiar surroundings of their own homes for as long as possible.

Calvary Community Care has supported people in their homes and communities for more than 30 years and delivers a range of aged care, disability and other support services that foster independence, improve social connections, and promote positive health

and wellbeing.

As a well-known provider of Healthcare in Tasmania, Calvary also operates Lenah Valley and St John’s private hospitals in Hobart, St Luke’s and St Vincent’s hospitals in Launceston, as well as residential aged care facilities.

People who have attended a Calvary hospital can continue to receive high quality care in their home either through their

existing packaged funds or privately. Calvary can also assist people to navigate the service system and access available funding for services where eligible.

A Home Care Package is an allocation of funding available to eligible senior Australians that supports them to live in their homes for as long as they can and choose to.

There are four levels of Home Care Package with different funding

amounts, ranging from $9,026 to $52,378 a year. The funding packages cover products and services to meet a range of care needs, offering basic support through to complex support.

Living well at home means different things to different people.

Some people would like cleaning, assistance in the garden such as mowing the lawn, or preparing meals. Others might need nursing and

podiatry, or personal care like bathing and getting dressed.

It may even mean home modifications, social connections, pastoral care or a break for caregivers.

Australia’s ageing population means it is not only older Australians who should prepare for future care needs; but their families and friends who need to open the conversation and be informed about what

services are available for their loved ones.

“Finding assistance immediately after an event can be stressful,” Calvary General Manager Jane Lajoie said.

“Talking about future care needs early means that families can feel safe and prepared.

“At Calvary, our integrated model of care aims to ensure we celebrate and support our people to live a high quality

and dignified life in a safe and caring environment.

“We build strong sustainable links between the aged care, community and hospital sectors to provide people and their families with a seamless, coordinated and integrated journey at any stage of their lives.”

A LOCAL indigenous man has set his sights on conquering the famous New York City Marathon, after being selected for a special sixmonth health, leadership and development program.

Jamie Graham-Blair, a proud Trawlwoolway and Plangermaireener man, is one of 12 young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people from across Australia selected to join the 2022 Indigenous Marathon Project (IMP) squad, which will train for the New York City Marathon in November.

Squad members are set to embark on one of the most challenging and rewarding journeys of their lives, training under the guidance of world marathon champion and Indigenous Marathon Foundation founder Rob de Castella.

But a ticket to New York isn’t guaranteed – the squad must commit

to a rigorous training schedule; compete in various running events; continue to lead by example within their communities; and complete educational components (including a Cert IV in Indigenous Leadership and Health Promotion, a Level 1 Recreational Running Coach course and first aid course) before they are offered entry into the New York City Marathon.

Jamie, who works both as a tour guide for Wukalina Walk and as a Cultural and Conservation Consultant and Learning Support Officer at St Virgil’s College, is looking forward to the challenge.

“I spend a lot of my time advocating for cultural revival and returns, conservation and climate justice,” he said, “and I saw the Indigenous Marathon Project as a way to build

not only my physical resilience, but also as a way to continue to amplify my messages further.

“Running is a gateway

to exploring more of my country, and a way to continue appreciating the gifts handed down to us by our old people.”

Orioles fly high with continuing baseball reign THE Banjo’s Orioles have proved they’re still the team to beat in local baseball, winning their fifth straight Baseball Tasmania division one title last month.

After a season interrupted by poor weather, a warm, sunny day greeted players for season 2021-22 Grand Final Day on 27 March.

The reigning champ Orioles took on this season’s minor premiers, the Eastern Athletics, in the division one final, with the Athletics taking an early 1-0 lead when Chris Morison scored from a Chris Harris hit.

But that would be all the Athletics could manage over the next seven innings, as Orioles pitcher Jason Baurycza dominated the game.

Baurycza pitched

the entire nine innings, limiting the Athletics to five hits while striking out 13 batters. He also had three hits himself, in a masterful performance that would earn him another Grand Final MVP award.

Athletics pitchers Ben Neilson, John Hayes and Sam Morrison did a stellar job to hold the Orioles to a total of five runs, but fielding errors did not help their cause and the Orioles ran out 5-1 winners.

The members of the winning Orioles team were Baurycza, Nick Fenton, Jimmy Clout, Rob Newham, Jordan Dufty, Jason Don, Darren Haas, Beau McNeil, Jack Don, Luke Hoyle, Aaron Jarvis and Andrew Nichols.

In division two, the

Visionary Carpentry Grey Jays were going for their third title in a row as they took on the season’s minor premiers, White Sox A. The Grey Jays jumped out to an early 9-1 lead thanks to some Sox errors, some smart base running, and the pitching of evergreen Peter Hubble.

Then the Sox came storming back, with Terry McCulloch and Jason Featherstone instrumental in the comeback. Four runs in the bottom of the third innings and three more in the bottom of the fifth saw the Sox close to 9-8, and it was game on.

But the Grey Jays continued to take advantage of Sox errors and to steal bases, and when they scored seven

runs across the sixth and seventh innings, the team had one hand on the Harris O’Brien Shield.

Steve Harris of the Grey Jays was voted MVP for the Grand Final. His teammates on the day were Stuart Smith, Michael Hegarty, Steve Millington, Nigel O’Brien, Peter Hubble, Steve Lovegrove, Michael Campbell, Ian Wood and Pru Easton.

On the weekend after Grand Final day, the Tassie Tigers Over 50’s Masters team headed to Victoria for the Victorian Masters Carnival in Ballarat.

After going undefeated through the round robin part of the tournament, the Tigers advanced to the B division Grand Final and won 11-6 over the Bees.

Veteran cricketers Kelvyn Anderson, Patrick Henry and Spencer Woolley are looking to sign up some new teammates

Call out for cricket veterans keen to pad up for Tassie

IF you’re over 60 but still keen to bat or bowl, Veterans Cricket Tasmania wants to hear from you.

The organisation is seeking cricketers to join its squads for the upcoming Over 60s

and Over 70s National Carnivals.

The Over 70s teams will play against other Australian states in Launceston from 10-15 November; before the Over 60s travel to

Geelong to play four matches over five days between 26 November and 1 December.

More than 40 teams from across the country will compete across five divisions.

Tasmania is aiming to field several teams in divisions 1, 3 and 5, but needs some more players in order to do so.

“We’re inviting players of all abilities to nominate for our teams,” Over

60s coordinator Spencer Woolley said.

“Whilst there are still plenty of ‘veterans’ playing in regular competitions, we also encourage those who have been out of the game for a while to give

it a go!”

Claremont Little Aths celebrate the season

THE 2021/2022 Claremont Little Athletics season has come to a close, with the grit and determination of the club’s young athletes recognised at a recent presentation day.

A wet start to the season – which saw nearly half of the season’s early meets cancelled because of rain - failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the emerging athletes, who went on to enjoy a successful season and record several personal bests on the track and in the field.

The club held a special meet on 25 January to try to catch up on missed events. The ‘Race for Chace’ event raised $250 for the family of Little Athlete Chace Harrison, who died in last year’s Hillcrest tragedy.

A number of

Claremont athletes also represented the club at statewide meets throughout the season, including brother and sister Harry and Ella Halloran. Ella set a state Under 7 Vortex record (18.35m) in Launceston; while Harry won a silver medal at the state individual championships.

Club members came together in March to celebrate the season with the annual presentation day. Each athlete was presented with a medal and ribbons, while several athletes were recognised for their achievements with trophies kindly sponsored by Elise Archer.

The club’s longestcompeting athlete, Zeke Lockely, was presented with a continuous participation award for his efforts over the past

decade.

Presentation day also featured the drawing of the club raffle, which is the club’s major annual fundraiser. This year’s raffle raised more than $800, which will be used to purchase equipment for next season.

Local politicians Josh Willie and Kristie Johnston attended the presentation day to present trophies to the junior and senior male and female athletes of the year, multi-event winners, encouragement award winners and the club’s most improved athletes.

The 2022/2023 Claremont Little Athletics season will start in October, with weekly meets to be held throughout the summer at Abbotsfield Park in Claremont on Friday nights.

CLAREMONT MAGPIES SEE RED FOR SALVOS (L-R) Claremont Football Club president Dennis Bird, Genevieve Peterson, Glenorchy Mayor Bec Thomas, Katie Stamford, Tobias Cooper, Scott Cooper, Captain Jeff Milkins, and Kristie Johnston MP launch Red Saturday

THE Claremont Magpies will be tinged with red when they go headto-head with reigning SFL premiers Cygnet in their first charity game for The Salvation Army Glenorchy.

Claremont Football Club will host the ‘Red Saturday’ game at Abbotsfield Park on May 14 in support of the Salvation Army’s annual Red Shield Appeal, with the event to include a luncheon, silent auction, raffles, prizes and three

hard-fought games of football.

The club has received special permission from the SFL for the senior team to wear red socks for the game, to help raise awareness of the appeal.

Last year, the Glenorchy Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal raised almost $18,000.

But Glenorchy Mayor and Red Shield Appeal Area Chair Bec Thomas said this year’s target of $30,000 is definitely attainable.

“Together, we can reach our goal of raising $30,000 to ensure no one in our municipality of Glenorchy goes hungry and that everyone is supported to access the services they need. Whether it be counselling, social support, financial aid or food relief,” Ms Thomas said.

“I’m proud to be the Area Chair for the Glenorchy Appeal knowing that all funds will benefit local people.”

Claremont Football Club president Dennis Bird said the club prides itself in being an integral part of the northern suburbs and is very excited to be a part of the appeal.

“We pride ourselves as being a club that not only offer opportunities for our young men and women, but also a club that supports those vulnerable and struggling members of our community,” Mr Bird said.

“This is going to be a fantastic day and we really hope to see as many people there to support the club and the Salvation Army.”

Glenorchy Salvation Army Centre Coordinator Jeff Milkins said that last year’s appeal funded a number of large initiatives.

“We are really excited to be working with such a community-focussed club to raise vital funds for our Glenorchy Red Shield Appeal at this

year’s Red Game,” he said.

“We are more reliant than ever on having a successful Red Shield Appeal in Glenorchy and our new partnership with the Claremont Football Club and a successful ‘Red Saturday’ will go a long way to ensuring this year’s appeal is a great success.

“Please come down and support the Salvos, get behind the Claremont Football Club and enjoy a great day at

the footy.”

Red Saturday kicks off at 10am with the match between the Claremont and Clarence SFL women’s teams.

The reserves match and luncheon begin at noon; before the main event between the seniors commences at 2pm. $40 tickets include entry to the football, the luncheon and a donation to the appeal. Tickets are available via www. trybooking.com/BYOJG
