Notes Editor’s note ...

Sometimes the weight of the world outside our pocket of hinterland loveliness can seem very fast and depressing – we all appear to be doomed and the truth has been given a new hashtag: #fakenews.

But seeing the community come together recently for events such as ANZAC Day and the Heritage showcase, alongside other events such as fitness challenges, yoga sessions, art exhibitions, workshops - and getting to listen and meet inspiring locals with incredible stories to share - really warms my heart and makes me think...the world might be spinning out of control but... maybe... we’ll be ok here in our pocket of Green.

As a community the majority of us keep an open mind and heart and listen to each other respectfully. There are good people in them thar hills and the Green intends to keep giving them a voice and uniting our community.

Community A N Z A C D AY - V E R R I E R D A L E The Verrierdale community came together, as the sun broke through the gumtrees, for the ANZAC Day dawn service. Piper Jimmy McKinlay played moving laments, followed by a welcome from MC Ed Boyd. Air Marshall (retired) Geoff Shepherd shared a stirring insight into what the day means to him. Noosa Chorale gave a moving performance

of Abide With Me followed by the Australian and New Zealand national anthems. After the service Cr Stephen Robinson and veterans joined around 200 locals for a hearty gunfire breakfast with veterans.

GALLIPOLI RECALLED BY LONE PINE TREE For the last two years Ed Boyd has nurtured in his Verrierdale garden a descendant of the pine trees which once covered Lone Pine Ridge at Gallipoli.

It now sits in the Anzac Commemoration Garden outside the Verrierdale Community Hall—a silent tribute to the 2000 Anzacs killed, along with about 7000 Turks, after three days of brutal hand to hand fighting at Lone Pine in August, 1915.

Mr Boyd told the story of how the little tree has become a Verrierdale showpiece at the community’s Anzac Day Dawn Service last Wednesday. After the battle, Lance Corporal Benjamin Smith, 3rd Battalion AIF collected several pine cones from the branches used by the Turks as overhead cover for their trenches. He sent the

cones home to his mother, Jane McMullin, in remembrance of his brother, Mark, who died in the fighting on August 6.

From one of the cones Mrs McMullin sowed several seeds and successfully raised two seedlings. One was planted in Inverell, NSW, where both her sons had enlisted, and the other was planted in 1934 at the Australian War Memorial where it still stands today.

Each year seeds are collected from the Canberra pine to produce offspring which are then made available to RSL clubs, schools and memorial sites. The Verrierdale pine was propagated from seeds from that tree. Mr Boyd was given the Aleppo pine tree, which is potted, two years ago by a friend who lives in Canberra and it has now doubled in size.

The Commemorative Garden is very much a community effort.

In 2014 we started it by taking a front-end loader and a truck and loading up rocks from a quarry.

We’ve tried to make the site a tribute to Gallipoli with the rocks representing the hills of the peninsula and sand depicting the beach front.

FREE SCHOOL BUS ROUTES IN DANGER Dept of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) recently announced proposed changes to its Eumundi State School’s (ESS) free bus runs because they are not being fully utilised.

The potential changes include amalgamating four school bus routes servicing the Eumundi area into two routes. The amalgamation of routes would potentially make for longer trips and could also mean ESS children sharing the transport service with students from Noosa District State High School.

Parents using the service were invited via letter to attend a meeting with Service Planning and Translink officers on 26 April at ESS. At the meeting, Translink explained their investigations had shown the services are

Community THE WILD BOYS OF BEERSHEBA

A N Z A C D AY - E U M U N D I On ANZAC Day in Eumundi, the Community Commemoration Ceremony saw local returned servicemen and women march with community groups and local schools. After assembling in front of Dick Caplick Park, under the canopy of Memorial trees, returned serviceman Bob Ward and MP Dan Purdie addressed the crowd, before Charlie Nelson sang a heartfelt rendition of I Was Only 19. The group, led by antique army jeeps and the Noosa & District Pipe Band, then walked up to the heritage listed Post Office. Singers Doo Wop Dolls sang Some Gave All before the Discover Eumundi bell tolled

John Strano, Eumundi After the tragedy of Gallipoli, a fumbling High Command shunted them off to the Land of the Pharaohs.

Camped in the shadows of the Great Pyramids reunited with their beloved Walers were rested and permitted the pleasures of Cairo.

Jonny Turk, remnants of the Great Ottoman Empire lay to the east, and with the Poms and Kiwis there was work to be done.

Defended the road to Suez, they pushed east.

With wistful eyes their loyal Walers in attack and defence, would carry their Colonial boys through shot and fire, through thirst, mirages and sand.

Through Magdhaba and unknown villages, and who could ever forget the battle of Romani, and the courage of that headstrong wild horse Bill the Bastard!

Uncomplaining, the Walers moved on through eroded and uncanny gargoyle crags that glared at them, through country their riders had only heard of at Sunday school.

Then the village of Seven Wells, not only of major strategic importance but water, more valuable than oil.

High Command strangled by failure, it was the Colonial boys from the land of the Southern Cross who circuited for three days in the blazing wilderness.

Suffering thirst, and a fierce sun intent on mischief they prepared for their attack on Beersheba.

Stirrup to stirrup charged the eight hundred and their brave thirsty Walers did not falter.

Like a raging sand storm they thundered forward; men did not dismount at the trenches, but hurled themselves onward and soared over the enemy lines on to Beersheba and history.

27 times in memory of fallen Eumundi soldiers from WWI and WII. After community groups laid wreaths under Pte A M McIntyre’s tree, the community then reassembled at the Amphitheatre where Air Marshall (retired) Geoff Shephard addressed the crowd. Many locals commented on how moving and insightful the Air Marshall’s speech was.

At the end of the service the group congregated beside the busy markets for traditional ANZAC refreshments.

Note from the Mayor The Hinterland is without a doubt one of the jewels of the Sunshine Coast.

With the vitality and liveability of our Hinterland communities, it is little wonder they are so highly treasured.

Our Council recognises the value the Hinterland offers to our region and will invest over 30% of its capital budget over a 10 year period (the last six years and the next four combined) to improve the facilities and infrastructure in our Hinterland divisions.

We are seeing that investment on a range of fronts – replacing the timber Petrie Park Road Bridge, the Nambour Heritage Tramway project, streetscaping in Yandina, park improvements in Eumundi and improvements to Nambour Showgrounds.

Many of our region making projects – like the Sunshine Coast Airport expansion, the Solar Farm and the Maroochydore City Centre – are also being delivered for the benefit of the whole region, by providing jobs, facilities, services and more opportunities for local businesses.

Our Council is focussed on delivering a healthy, smart and creative future for all of our residents – no matter where they live.

Unsealed roads priority Council’s Lower Order Unsealed Roads Upgrade Plan 2016-2026 outlines the process for the upgrade of roads carrying less than 150 people per day.

The 10-year plan provides council with the opportunity to implement a lower cost option for the sealing of low traffic volume roads to a fit-for-purpose standard without compromising on safety.

It also allows communities the opportunity to fast-track the sealing of local roads by contributing to the cost. Funding, in part or whole, can be provided by local residents together with the Divisional Councillor and the capital road works budget.

I am happy to discuss this program with anyone looking to better understand the opportunities in their local area.

Reopening of abattoir I am advised there is interest in recommencing an abottoir facility at a property on Eumundi Noosa Road.

There are existing use rights for an abottoir on this property as it was previously used as an meatworks for more than 20 years.

The owner is able to resume use for the same purpose, subject to the facilty being upgraded to meet current Safe Food standards.

An Environental Authority (EA) from the State Government, which would include conditions about noise, odour and other considerations is also required.

Lest we forget It was inspiring to attend the Verrierdale dawn service on Anzac Day with record numbers, a stirring speech by Air Marshall Geoff Shepherd and the unveiling of a descendent of the original Lone Pine at Anzac Cove.

A huge thank you to the Verrierdale committee for organising the dawn service and the gun fire breakfast, which was greatly appreciated by the attendees.

The Eumundi Anzac Day service was equally inspiring, with the traditional march a chance to reflect and remember those Eumundi and district residents who lost their lives in WWI and WWII. This was followed by another moving ceremony at the amphitheatre. Congratulations to the organising committee for a respectful and well planned ceremony.

Good news for solar farm The Sunshine Coast Solar Farm is surpassing its targets in its first year, offsetting more than 100% of Sunshine Coast Council’s total electricity consumption and providing almost $1 million in savings.

School Bus cont’d from pg 7 and drivers needed to meet the present travel needs of eligible students. Translink Principal Advisor Cameron Leslie explained, “The department actively monitors school bus services and undertakes reviews where necessary.”

“Despite population growth, student use of a number of buses has declined in the Eumundi area.

“TransLink is working to balance the cost of subsidising and servicing these bus routes, with ensuring buses continue to meet community needs,” Mr Leslie said.

The parents present at the meeting expressed frustration at the lack of communication available from Translink about the local school bus routes.

Many felt the service is not fully utilised by local families for a number of reasons: • Poor infrastructure/ lack of bus shelters • Inconvenient / lack of stops • Too short a route

These results confirm council’s view that this project will create savings – and an awareness of renewable energy across our region and beyond. I encourage all residents with an interest in renewable energy to keep an eye on council’s website for the latest solar farm data. The solar farm is also continuing to attract widespread recognition, adding to its awards list by recently taking out the sustainability category at the Local Government Managers Australia Excellence Awards in April.

Proposed Doonan NBN tower I recently met with a number of concerned residents in relation to the proposed NBN tower at Doonan. The meeting was held at residents’ homes near the proposed location. As well as visual and other amenity concerns, the residents proposed two alternative locations which I forwarded to council. Council has since put forward these two alternative locations to NBN Co. so I expect that council will report on the matter in the near future.

• Lack of knowledge about the free service Cat Richmond of Cash Rd in Eumundi said, “I can’t use the bus service because it doesn’t stop on my road.”

Nat Brewster shared she doesn’t use the service any more because it’s not safe to get to the stops on Eumundi Range Rd. “We have to walk along the road to get to the stop and cars speed around those blind corners.”

“My neighbor told me my bus won’t stop out the front any more because it’s not safe,” she said.

Meidishka Hall who lives in Doonan said she wants to use the bus for environmental reasons and to reduce congestion around the school.

But the prospect of her five year-old son taking a proposed 40 minute bus trip, when home is six minutes away, seems extreme. “But if parents don’t want the routes to change, we need to start utilising the bus

L oca l Spot lig ht WHY WE REMEMBER Bob Ward, ex-Navy Medic, Eumundi Anzac Day is important to me as it allows me to get together with fellow return and serving men and women from the three services. We are fortunate to have the presence of some very senior Navy, Army and Airforce retired people living in our local area. To remember the service that you gave to your country gives meaning to the time spent in training and active work. It was a significant and valued part of my life.

I joined the Royal Australian Navy in early 1962 and had my initial training at HMAS Cerberus in Victoria, followed by basic nursing and emergency medicine training for more than a year. I then followed up this training with work at the operating theatre at the RAN Hospital. In 1965 I was selected to go to the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne to study Operating Theatre and Emergency Department medicine for a year. This was great as I was supervised by some very good Navy and Army reserve Surgeons and the department of Surgery for the Monash University and the Melbourne University with Sir Edward Dunlop and Sir Edward Hughes.

I was married in early 1966 and very soon after was informed of transfer for War service in The Ex Aircraft Carrier HMAS Sydney and at Vung Tau in South Vietnam. Almost all of my work was in surgery, triage and emergency. Late in 1967 I was to return to The Sydney Naval Hospital, but had a quick three months training in Midwifery in Melbourne then transfer to PNG to the Navy Hospital at HMAS Tarangau on Manus Island which involved working with Australians, New Zealanders, Americans and other Navy personnel, as well as the local PNG population and civilians. This lasted for a long three years where there was great learning and skills improvement in tropical

medicine. 1971 was spent in the Far East fleet and aboard the Sydney doing Troupe Transfers and with the Fleet on line doing shore bombardment.

I moved to Eumundi in 1992 for the lovely village feel and to be involved in a small community.

I’m now an active member of Eumundi Rotary. My daughter Nicole and her family also made the move here in 2013.

On 24 April I was a guest at the Eumundi State School Anzac Day service. I recommend everyone should go and watch, as it’s very moving to see the kids run their own service the day before Anzac Day on the market terraces.

On Anzac Day I attended the Verrierdale Dawn Service which is full of feeling. It’s held in a small area but attended by a lot of the locals. The Verrierdale community have been a fair bit of my life having worked for 20 years in the area in real estate and other gigs.

I then attended the Eumundi ANZAC Day march and service, where I acted as MC. This community walk in Eumundi involves a lot of work by a small group of locals. It doesn’t attract a huge number of participants, but all those who turn out seem to enjoy the heartfelt memorial. Group of kids from local schools, community members and organisations join in with our walk, and I think that this adds to the feeling of belonging for them. Seeing kids wearing their mum’s, dad’s or grandparent’s medals also enables the youngsters to get involved.

Remember to teach your youngsters about Anzac, the wars and the road to peace.

Also remember to pin on those medals so they don’t feel sad if they are misplaced.

Music RAISE YOUR VOICE AND A GLASS Music runs through Eumundi’s veins and industry veterans Analiese and Mike Long plan on celebrating the fact. They’re keen to get hinterlanders singing by starting Sound Crowd, a community choir. The Eumundi couple, who both travel Australia and all over the world with musicians and shows, rarely have a chance to sing together in a group and feel the warmth and spirit of a body of humans. “Singing is so much fun,” Analiese shared. “It’s also an easy form of release, of catharsis, of exaltation, of bonding and bringing community together.”

“Previously we would have sung in church on a weekly basis, as a form of storytelling, learning or celebration. Sound Crowd is a guaranteed good-time and opportunity to feed the heart and soul,” she said.

Of their decision to hold monthly choir rehearsals at the Imperial Hotel in the Brewery, Analiese explained that the pub already has a unifying effect on people, so it makes sense.

“Sound Crowd will take its lead from the pub and stick to mostly well-known rock songs.

We will be teaching harmonies and using everyone’s voice where they are comfortable singing.”

Each month the group will learn a new song that will be performed just for each other on the night. “Everyone can sing and in a choir you are supported - drowned out by your neighbours so it’s really an easy chance to raise your voice!”

“We invite everyone over 18 to come, there are no auditions, no commitment - just turn up on the night and sing.”

Sound Crowd will hold their inaugural meeting on Wed 9 May and Wed 13 June, 6.30 – 9pm. $10. imperialhoteleumundi.com.au/ whats-on.

ANZAC SCHOOL MEMORIAL Under the canopy of Memorial Trees, Eumundi State School (ESS) held its annual ANZAC Day ceremony with school captains running proceedings.

Honoured guests included: retired Navy Medic Bob Ward; Member for Ninderry Dan Purdie; Eumundi Historical Assoc. President Donata Page; Eumundi Country Women’s Assoc. representatives; ESS P&C representative Nat Brewster; and Colonel Greg Molyneux, CSC (Rtd).

The Colonel spoke to the students of the ANZAC’s common attributes courage, tenacity, mateship, pride in country, plus sense of humour - and that these qualities can be embraced by the school students as well.

Children from each class placed a wreath made by their classmates beneath the town’s Trees of Tribute. The Heritage listed trees were planted between 1914 and 1919 in memory of the twenty local men who enlisted in WW1 and never returned home.

Wendy Birrell, Discover Eumundi manager Over 15 heritage groups from the Sunshine Coast showed off at the Eumundi School of Arts hall recently as they came together to proudly share the history of the region. These heritage groups and small museums rely on volunteers to run them, and spend many hours caring for and conserving and preserving the history of their area of the coast for future generations.

Each group had a stall space with a display created especially for the day, and volunteers were on hand to meet with visitors and share their knowledge and some of the stories, photos and objects they care-take in their collections. All day live entertainment, fashion parades through the eras, free workshops, a mini cinema, classic vehicles and a popup cafe added to the ambiance of the event and kept the large

BRINGING BUSH BACK When the first Europeans explored the Australian bush, many described it as greygreen and drab. Probably a fair comment if you were wandering through a dry eucalypt forest in high summer. Fact is though that our bushland contains many beautiful plants that that can fit in superbly in the home garden.

The best natives you can add are the ‘endemics’, the varieties that naturally occur in your area, as these provide not just beautiful plants for you but the right habitat and food supplies for native birds, animals and insects such as butterflies.

Many native plants are very persistent. They have evolved to survive everything from bushfire to flood to being grazed on by ‘roos or possums or, for that matter, diprotodons. What this means is that seeds, roots or shorn-off trunks or stems may be laying dormant in your soil ready to pop-up given the right conditions or they may already be popping-up and you are removing them. They may also be growing already, unnoticed or unrecognised for what they are, in with other plants and of-course many native birds and animals drop seeds in with their poo.

Here are a few tips for how you can bring back a bit of the bush at your place without having to buy a single plant.

Look before you weed Whether you’re hand-weeding, whipper-snipping or spraying make sure you know what you’re getting rid of. Native grasses in

particular can easily become collateral damage when weeding. Which leads me to my next point.

Let it grow If in doubt, let it grow for a little while. Many plants can be hard to identify when young, lots of natives doubly so as their seedling leaf shape can be totally different to their adult foliage. Once it’s grown-on a little identification will be easier.

Photos: Adam Woodhams

what might surprise you is that many of the plants you may want to grow could be there, ready and waiting, in your garden. All you need to do is know how to coax them into growth. First, a quick explanation.

Selectively weed Areas around the base of old, remnant native trees can be rich with other plant species and seeds.

Decide on a perimeter, say 1.5m out from the trunk all around, and set about removing everything you know is exotic, such as lawn grasses, plants and weeds. If practical lightly fluff the soil surface with a multi-pronged hoe avoiding any damage to roots. Then just

EUMUNDI BUSHCARE GROUP

Rice flower (Pimelea linifolia)

Long-leaf Waxflower (Philotheca myoporoides)

lightly mulch the area and leave it be, removing only the exotics that pop back up.

So, what can you expect to find at your place? That’s going to vary with your area, but as an example with 18-months of applying these ideas in some areas at our place in Weyba Downs we now have lots of grass-like dianellas and

lomandras, beautiful yellowflowering scrambling hibbertia, pimeleas, a range of grevilleas and melaleucas, countless small groundcovers and, the real treasures, tiny, beautiful herbaceous terrestrial orchids.

So give it a go in a corner at your place. You might be surprised what pops-up.

Amber Grimley, Eumundi

Native plant identification Why identify plants? You may like to know what that tree is in your garden. Maybe it’s a weed and you’d like to remove it. Identifying it will help you make that decision.

Why is identifying plants important? Us humans love to classify things. This is the basis of science! Botanists want to know what plant genus that is. Zoologists want to know what animal species is that?

Mycologists want to know what fungus is that? It’s handy for scientists to know this stuff because it keeps them busy! And of course they are discovering new amazing things all the time! It’s important for the environment to know which plants are in that area that’s about to be cleared. Are there any rare plants in there? Also we need to identify weeds to remove them from natural areas.

Identifying plants can be a tricky business, however! It’s quite hard to identify a plant if you only have a leaf or two. The flowers and fruits of plants are very good indicators of the family that the plant belongs to. A lot of people here in Australia know that the Eucalyptus has flowers with many stamens and very distinctive seed pods, or gum nuts. Just think of May Gibbs’ Gumnut

Babies with their cute little gum nut hats!

The Eucalyptus genus belongs in the Myrtaceae family, as does Callistemon (the bottlebrushes), Melaleuca (the paperbarks), Leptospermum (the tea trees) and more.

This all sounds very technical and sciency and you may think it’s gobbledygook, but every plant has a name just like you and me.

I find identifying plants lots of fun. I’m a plant nerd! But I also find it hard. To identify a plant you need good eyes, a hand lens (or loupe), leaves, flowers, fruits and a plant “key” A plant key is a book with a list of questions or statements about plant characteristics.

Working through yes or no answers will eventually get you to the plant name. Hopefully (if you got it right!)

If you would like to have a go at identifying a plant that you maybe have in your yard please bring along a small branch to our next working bee, preferably with fruit or flowers as well as leaves. Take note of the plant itself -it’s height and trunk type/ colour are good to note. Does 17

it have smooth or rough bark? Is it a tree or shrub? Take some photos too and bring them along on your phone, if you can.

We will have various plant keys and books on hand to look at so please join us on Sunday 27th May for our next working bee at the Sunken Garden in Pacey Street, Eumundi. Check out facebook.com/eumundibushcaregroup.

Our working bee starts at 8.30am with light weeding and ends at 10.30am with morning tea. Please join us!

ANZAC Day - Eumundi cont’d from pg 8

School Bus cont’d from pg 12 system we are lucky to have.

“You don’t have to use it every single day, but a few mornings or afternoons a week would reduce the traffic, make the surrounding roads a safer place for our kids and keep our school buses and drivers - the only way to keep the service is to use the service,” Meidishka said.

On questioning the DTMR representatives, parents found Translink would be open to not changing/amalgamating the routes if the current numbers of children were increased and the routes lengthened. To apply for the free bus service families can ask at the ESS administration desk. Any queries can be directed to Principal Project Officer (STAS) Gerard Bom stasoptimisation@tmr.qld. gov.au.

Proposed Eumundi bus routes Morning – S490 will transport students years 9 to 12 from Eumundi to Cooroy via Bruce Hwy then to pick up primary students it will travel along Eumundi Range Rd, Sunrise Rd, Valley Drive and Beddington Rd, plus Eumundi Noosa Rd to Eumundi State School.

Photos: Sacha HMcL

Afternoon – S490 will pick up primary students at Eumundi State School at 2.55pm and then travel to Cooroy Campus via Eumundi Range Rd and dropping off students on the way. It will then pickstudents year 9 to 12 and drop them off at Eumundi via the Bruce Hwy. The bus will then continue to drop off primary students via Eumundi Range Rd, Sunrise Rd and Beddington Rd. In future if the numbers on at the Cooroy Campus are too great for the 57 seat vehicle, the afternoon journey would be amended to commence at Cooroy Campus and then pick up and drop off year 7 and 8 students who previously travelled on S490. The extra travel time for students on this service will be minimal.

It is proposed that any approved changes to these services would take effect from the start of the 3rd school term 2018 (16 July 2018).

S558 will travel its current route and be extended along Memorial Dr into Eumundi State School to pick up and drop off year 7 and 8 students who previously travelled on S490. The extra travel time for students will be minimal.
