Tapping into Community and Diversity for 36 Years

Clogging, an often overlooked dance style, has entrenched itself within Brisbane’s vibrant cultural tapestry for the past three decades.

Originating as a folk dance in the Appalachian Mountains of the US, clogging bears striking resemblances to tap dancing, sharing a common lineage. Brisbane, as a hub for this rhythmic art, hosts numerous clogging clubs spread across various suburbs, including Brisbane City Hall, Kenmore, Runcorn, Lutwyche, Chermside, and Caboolture. These clubs serve as community centres where individuals of diverse backgrounds and ages, spanning from 6 to over 80 years old, converge to celebrate this percussive feet danceform. ‘At its core, clogging is not just about dance; it’s a way of connecting people, creating bonds, and celebrating diversity,’ mentions one of the club members. The dance form, once rooted in fiddle and bluegrass music, has evolved dynamically, embracing a wide spectrum of musical genres from country to pop and hip-hop. Confidance Cloggers, a Brisbane clogging clubs, stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of this art form. The club has been a source of joy and connection for its members, fostering qualities like teamwork, leadership skills, and self-confidence. ‘More than just dance steps, clogging has provided us with mental wellness benefits, especially during challenging times,’ added another enthusiast. With a membership that transcends cultural and generational barriers, Confidance Cloggers exemplifies the power of dance

in promoting social cohesion and well-being. Their website (http://www.confidancecloggers.com) showcases their dedication to this unique dance style, serving as a testament to their commitment to fostering a welcoming community. ‘As we mark our 36th year in Brisbane, we invite everyone to discover the joy of clogging. It‘s more than a dance; it’s a celebration of life and unity,’ expressed a club representative, extending an open invitation to all interested individuals to join their community-driven dance program.

A Beacon of Humanitarianism and Inspiration

In a momentous event held on November 27th at Government House Sydney, Rose Ness Wilson, a Year 6 student from St William’s Primary School in Keperra, was unveiled as the Queensland Junior Ambassador to The Fred Hollows Foundation. This prestigious accolade was awarded to Rose in recognition of her exceptional demonstration of humanitarian values and unwavering commitment to serving others. The Humanity Award, a nationally acclaimed initiative by The Fred Hollows Foundation, honors students who, akin to the legendary ophthalmologist Professor Fred Hollows, exhibit remarkable humanitarianism towards their peers and communities. Her Excellency the Honourable Margaret Beazley AC KC, Governor of New South Wales, alongside Mr. Dennis Wilson, served as joint Patrons for The Foundation's award ceremony, gracing the occasion with their presence and support. Rose’s nomination for the Humanity Award, alongside her fellow student Alana Fagan, was submitted by her teacher, Nikki Saunders, representing St William's Grovely. Ms. Saunders lauded Rose’s exceptional community spirit, stating, ‘Rose goes above and beyond to help people in need, not just within our school but also in the wider community.’ Rose’s philanthropic endeavors include assembling Christmas hampers for the St Vincent de Paul Society, where she crafted unique handwritten messages for each pack, and brightening the lives of aged care facility residents with her visits.

Gabi Hollows with Rose at Government House fundraising efforts, particularly for medical research and charities benefiting premature babies, reflect her personal journey as a premature baby herself. Moreover, Rose’s leadership shone through as she initiated and managed the school newsletter, SWP (St Williams Press), involving students in its creation. Inspired by a workshop from Echo New’s Journalist Georgia Wright last year, this school newsletter was written by the students, for the students. This initiative persisted throughout her final two years in primary school, affirming her commitment to community engagement and communication. As one of six Junior Ambassadors to The Fred Hollows Foundation, Rose has received a $5,000 grant from Specsavers, the award's charity partner, dedicated to supporting The Foundation’s mission to eradicate avoidable blindness worldwide. An additional $10,000, also donated by Specsavers, will bolster The Foundation’s programs globally. Rose has chosen to allocate her $10,000 funding towards The Foundation's Indigenous Australia Program, highlighting her commitment to supporting eye care services within Indigenous communities. Rose Ness Wilson’s commitment to humanitarianism and her dedication to serving others serve as an inspiration to her peers and the wider community, showcasing the impact that young individuals can have on creating positive change in society.

An Echo of Creativity Across Padua College

After establishing a partnership with Padua College in 2022, our journalist Georgia Wright adopted a mentor’s role for the school’s Eagles’ Quill Writing Club. Two years later, both Echo News and the Eagles’ Quill have flourished from the mutual support. During a worthwhile, grant-funded investment in local schools, Georgia began attending Eagle’s Quill meetings to pass on her knowledge of writing and journalism. Having strived to become an author herself—and achieving that goal at age 16—her mentorship was deeply appreciated by the students. So much so, she was made a permanent source of expertise at the college. As well as Georgia’s mentorship, Echo News has also sponsored two consecutive annual writing competitions at Padua College, donating $150 worth of prizemoney to the cause. As a result, Padua’s young achievers are now more interested in storytelling than ever. Especially, one student by the likes of Ethan Messer, whom Georgia affectionately refers to as her intern. An aspiring journalist himself, Ethan wrote six articles for The Little Echo during its time and now collaborates with Georgia on pieces for Echo News. He shares, ‘Throughout the year, with Georgia’s help, I have been able report on many important topics and help inform people about aspects that are improving or affecting nature, along with many other real-world problems. Georgia’s time at Padua has also seen the beginning and the growth of Padua’s Eagles Quill Writing Club, introducing more kids to creative writing and journalism. My writing skills have grown, and I have been able to learn the ins and out of journalism and reporting. Sharing topics that impact the daily life of people and organisms is something that I will be continuing long into the future.’ Recently, Ethan repurposed the confidence he’s gained and took his creativity to all new heights. He scored the challenging role of The Riddler in a Padua College short film Batman: The Fall of Gotham. Georgia attended the film’s premiere on behalf of Echo News to show her support. Ethan explains, ‘The Batman movie was a parody of the normal Batman movies that are known by everyone. This project started with the class creating a small Batman skit before term four, which was then turned into our assessment. The whole class had a tremendous influence on the story and

design of the movie. Led by our director and other leaders in the class, we were able to create a 40-minute-long Batman film with all the same villains, but a completely original story and script. I was one of the assistant directors and script writers in the movie, while also playing the classic Batman villain, the Riddler. Creative abilities and many other students’ strengths were easily emphasised throughout the filming of this movie. Many challenges were accounted for along the way. With the guidance of many experienced teachers and a strong cast, Batman: The Fall of Gotham became real and taught many people lessons on leadership along the way.’ Georgia found it to be a wholesome, encouraging experience watching Ethan, amongst all the other students involved in the project, showcase such remarkable storytelling skills. As Joanne O’Bryan, the organiser of the writing club, shared after the premiere, ‘I will never forget this night. These kids are so special, I feel so lucky to have witnessed their abilities grow.’ Feeling the same sense of pride, Georgia looks forward to a continued partnership with Padua College—and continued internship with Ethan—in the new year.

Fostering Community Spirit, Player Development, and Affordable Netball Access

In recent years, the over arching focus of Arana Netball has been rebuilding the club in the heart of the community – exemplifying the pinnacle of a supportive grass-roots netball club with families in mind. This effort has been led by the Presidential team, Jenna Hodgekiss and Kym Streeter, along with the help of volunteers. Thanks to all their hard work, the club has seen the community spirit soar within the club, along with the achievements of its members. The coaching team at Arana Netball have seen immense improvement in players over the years. This is highly noted by the increasing amount of Arana Netball players (within representative playing pools) going into the 2024 season with selection in both representative programs and teams through QCNA and DPNA. The club would like to recognise these players, who have thrived in the club’s supportive environment and coaching programs. Players can look forward to improving their skills in the 2024 season starting

Run With Rob: Champions of the Team

By Shane Steele Every Step Makes a Difference is the mission statement of local running club, Run With Rob. Although, in 2023 it took giant leaps in terms of community reach, including raising $61,928 – its greatest annual total since commencing in 2014 – with 100 per cent going to charities like Small Steps 4 Hannah.

RWR’s reputation is built on going further together by not letting anyone fall behind. As a club, it moves as a tribe. However, in 2023, some runners moved beyond what even they imagined. As such, several club members were awarded the prestigious RWR Runner of the Month. This accolade, awarded via anonymous nominations by club members, may recognise a significant running achievement or milestone, but really acknowledges members embodying the spirit of RWR. In July, Renee West won for leading the Warner afternoon group sessions and demonstrating motivation and inclusiveness towards all participants. Renee said it meant, “Everything.” A self-proclaimed ‘slow runner’, winning it changed her entire outlook on running. Renee’s husband, Gary, was awarded the June RWR Runner of the Month. As one of RWR’s loudest supporters trackside, Gary was recognised for his efforts in providing logistical support and helping with the coordination of race sites by setting up RWR gazebos and resources for the comfort of racers and supporters. “Not being a ‘runner’, it was a great feeling knowing others appreciated my efforts. Although, it’s not really an effort when you enjoy being around quality people,” said Gary. Melissa Murray, May RWR Runner of the Month, was similarly awarded for being the club’s ‘biggest cheerleader.’ “Being celebrated simply for celebrating the achievements of the members of this amazing community makes me really proud,” said Mel. “I will never be the fastest runner in the group and won’t ever win the award for the most attendances, but to be able to be there to celebrate and encourage each other is what being a part of RWR is all about for me.” Julia Lind was the January recipient in recognition of her positivity, enthusiasm and encouragement of RWR runners to be the best version of themselves. When not volunteering with the Pine Rivers Koala Care to provide an ambulance service for the furry natives, Julia remains an active runner within RWR that loves, “seeing what our existing and new RWR members achieve, whether it be improving their running pace or distance, or even developing more confidence in themselves.” Demonstrating commitment and being the best version of themself was behind Bridgette Breddin’s win of the RWR Runner of the Month in February. This followed months of solo trail runs in the lead-up to her completing the 50-kilometre Noosa Ultra Marathon in March 2023, for the second year in a row. Bridgette was humble in receiving the award. “I am just me. What you see is what you get, but I was chuffed that people recognised my commitment.” Bridgette acknowledges the support and friendship from RWR has been integral to her accomplishments, including those within her personal and professional life. In fact, RWR has planted seeds for its runners to embrace challenges away from trails and roads. This includes the broadcast of the Talking Tempo podcast (available on Spotify) by Sacha Carney and Katie Short, who were joint RWR Runners Page 24 - January 2024, The Eatons Echo

January’s RWR Runner of the Month Julia Lind with Rob Hopkinson, Founder of the Run With Rob community of the Month at the start of 2023 for their program. Sacha and Katie’s insightful and humorous discussion of running is aimed at everyday runners of all abilities as they talk about the highs, lows and everything in between relating to running. This included their personal journeys in training for the Gold Coast Marathon, which was Sacha’s debut event for this distance and saw Katie achieve her goal of going under 4 hours for the first time. Reaching, or running, for the impossible is what RWR is all about. Just ask Susie Clowes, winner of the August RWR Runner of the Month, who thought traversing the distance of the half-marathon was just that. Impossible. “This group has shown me anything is possible if you put your mind to it and are surrounded by like-minded, positive people.” Susie went on to say training for her goal with others was a ‘privilege.’ “RWR is so much more than a group of runners. It is a true community of people supporting each other and showing genuine care. To find so many new friends has been a real joy.” Katie Flaherty is one such runner that has shown anything is possible. Over Easter weekend, Katie competed in the Dead Cow Gully Big Backyard Ultra, managing to place 6th female overall after running 105 kiliometres. Katie would return only three months later to run the Australian Backyard Masters at the same course, located just outside Nanango, to shatter her own expectations and run over 143 kilometres. In recognition of her incredible efforts, Katie was awarded the April RWR Runner of the Month for being the ‘quiet achiever’ in the club. Katie’s win reflected her consistency, dedication and no-fuss approach to her training. “The recognition and supportive words from fellow group members were extremely touching,” said Katie. “It was a moment to pause, reflect and appreciate the progress and accomplishments I had made throughout the year.” So, if you have made it your resolution in 2024 to start or resume running, RWR will be there for you. A sentiment echoed by Mel. “This community is about so much more than running and welcomes people of all abilities, so being recognised for something that really has nothing to do with running, makes me proud to be a part of a community where everyone is celebrated for their achievements and the wonderful and unique humans that they are.” For more information, email runwithrob4037@gmail.com www.echo-news.com.au


25 Years of Empowerment and Community Unity

In the heart of our community, the Mitchelton Branch of the Older Women's Network Queensland (OWNQ) has reached a remarkable milestone, commemorating its 25th anniversary.

From its humble beginnings with a modest gathering of 10 attendees at the inaugural meeting on May 13, 1998, the branch has burgeoned into a thriving community boasting an impressive membership of 80 women. This growth stands as a testament to the enduring bonds of camaraderie and support shared among older women in our area. Over the course of the last quarter-century, the Mitchelton Branch has evolved into a vital cornerstone for social connection and empowerment among its members. What initially commenced as a formal monthly meeting has transformed into a dynamic nexus of activities, knowledge exchange, and educational pursuits tailored to the interests of this vibrant group of women. A particularly commendable facet of the Mitchelton Branch is its commitment to adapt and expand in alignment with the changing needs and preferences of its members. Presently, the branch not only serves as a platform for social interaction but has broadened its scope to encompass member-organized activities. These encompass a diverse array of pursuits, from the camaraderie of ten-pin bowling to the enchantment of amateur theatre and the simple joy of shared movie outings. In an endeavor to explore the city and its surroundings, members embark on invigorating day trips utilizing Brisbane's public transport system, fostering a sense of adventure and discovery. Additionally, the branch has initiated opportunities for short holidays, offering members a chance to create enduring memories in a relaxed and supportive setting. The celebration of this remarkable 25-year journey saw 44 women congregating at the Stafford Tavern on November 28th. Amidst an atmosphere filled with laughter and shared stories, the event encapsulated a deep sense of appreciation for the enduring bonds forged over the years. This silver anniversary celebration served not only as a moment for reflection but also

As we commend the Mitchelton Branch of OWNQ for its unwavering commitment to the well-being of older women in our community, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the women whose contributions have fueled the growth and success of this branch over the years. Their dedication to fostering a supportive and empowering environment for older women is profoundly inspiring. Here's to 25 years of friendship, resilience, and empowerment – and to many more years ahead for the Mitchelton Branch of OWNQ, continuing its invaluable work in enriching the lives of older women in our community.

It’s a celebration of my art, looking back at my journey as an artist and my everyday life and adventures in Moreton Bay. ‘It’s my first large-scale exhibition - from my very first painting that I ever completed which won the Moreton Bay Region Art Prize back in 2008 which is quite special, through to more recent paintings. Some of these are coming from all around Australia and I haven’t seen them since I painted them!’ Besides his art practice, Martin is a proud ambassador for Autism Queensland and his generosity as a volunteer, mentor

I like bright colours and the world around me and when I paint it makes me happy and brings a sense of joy. If I’m having a bad day, when I start painting, I start to feel well and happy again,’ Martin said.
