The NSW Minister for Local Government has commenced a further review into Kiama Council as a meeting to decide the fate of Blue Haven Bonaira draws nearer. NSW Local Government Minister Ron Hoenig wrote to Kiama Mayor Neil Reilly in late December 2023 to inform him that he would undertake a further review into Kiama Council following the completion of a Performance Improvement Order (PIO). A Kiama Council spokesperson confirmed that Minister Hoenig began the review earlier this month, and Council CEO Jane Stroud is assisting as required. Kiama Council says it

cannot comment any further on the review, and questions should be directed to the State Government. The Bugle has contacted Minister Hoenig and his office for comment and will update this article if we receive a response. Kiama Council was hit with the PIO in November 2022 in an effort to stabilise its finances following years of instability, and submitted its final report to the Minister for Local Government in June 2023. Kiama Council says it met all compliance milestones of the PIO. Mayor Neil Reilly and other Councillors are considering holding an extraordinary

meeting on 1 February 2024 to review the Blue Haven Bonaira tender. This meeting has been slated since November 2023, and “is the natural next step in the seven-month public tender process for the divestment of Blue Haven Bonaira, which all Councillors voted unanimously to commence on 28 February 2023,” according to a Council media statement. Councillor Karen Renkema-Lang raised concerns about the divestment on multiple occasions, saying in her opinion that there was not sufficient information to make an informed decision that would be best for the community. In response,

Mayor Reilly made misleading claims to Kiama Community Radio that Councillor Renkema-Lang only raised these concerns because “the vote didn’t go her way.” Council will also consider the deferred Notice of Motion to stop the sale of Blue Haven Bonaira and initiate an investigation by the Office of Local Government into the sale process. The motion would have been debated at Council’s ordinary meeting on 15 December 2023, but was deferred until the next ordinary meeting on 13 February 2024. Kiama Council will issue a formal public notification

of the extraordinary meeting tomorrow (19 January 2024). The announcement follows a call from the United Services Union, which represents around 80 Blue Haven staff, to sack Kiama Council and appoint an administrator. USU General Secretary Graeme Kelly OAM has called on NSW Premier Chris Minns to take action and provide certainty for the residents and staff of Blue Haven. “Local Government Minister Ron Hoenig knows the Council is not acting in the best interests of the community and needs to go.

Order issued to Kiama Council by the previous government has not resulted in any change.” Kelly said the appointment late last year of a former Sutherland Council General manager to inquire into the finances of Kiama Council should be completed before the Council moves to sell Blue Haven. “The community, the Council and the Minister need time to properly consider the report and the community’s views, rather than ramming this proposed sale through. A Council vote on the future of Blue Haven must be delayed until that can take place.”

No coin-operated trolleys for Kiama Village Kiama Woolworths is not planning to bring in coin operated trolleys at Kiama Village but will be replacing the current trolley fleet with the new green recycled or plastic trolleys, when the new car parks at Kiama Village are fully open, which could be as late as March. Alan, the Kiama Woolworths Manager, confirmed to The Bugle that the coin operated trolleys currently at the front of the store were delivered by mistake and will not be used. “The coin operated trolleys are stored there as we have nowhere else to put them, until they are removed. Kiama Woolworths will receive the new plastic recycled trolleys in both shallow and large sizes, with about 70 per cent in the shallow category as per customer feedback.’ The greatly expanded Kiama Village car park will have one underground level, one basement level, and will also include some rooftop parking. Alan said the one hour restriction on the current parking space had worked well, though occasionally

customers would assume that any ute was there all day as part of the work site, which is not the case as the site actively polices any of its workers parking. Kiama Snap Fitness will also be moving into the enlarged Kiama Village Shopping Complex which will have two levels of underground car parking. Aldi has been known for many years to use coin operated return of trolleys to minimise theft and have

them returned to the trolley bay for the next user. Woolworths Warilla Grove has been reported to be operating a keyring that operates as a coin for returns which retails for 50 cents. This has been in response to the high level of trolley theft. Alan said the rate of trolley theft and abandonment in Kiama is relatively low so the coin operated trolleys are not needed. Mark Whalan

In 2022, Traders In Purple became close to purchasing the Akuna St carpark from Kiama Council, but the tender was ultimately awarded to Level 33. Traders In Purple does have a foot in Kiama already though, having restored the Greyleigh homestead in Jamberoo and transforming it into a luxury retreat.

Here at The Bugle we will always champion providing frank and fearless reporting on what is best for the community and have a strong View on what we think that means. So, it is a little strange for us to not have a View on something as important as more than a thousand new homes for our area. Our very own Brendon Foye told the story of the Springside Hill proposal to significantly increase housing supply at the western end of Kiama. At this stage, full details of the proposal have not been released, but Kiama Council has said that it intends to make all documents available to the public, shortly – a step they normally don’t’ take, which highlights the importance of the proposal to our future. Of keen interest, and what has widely been reported is a “25 percent guarantee” from the developer Traders in Purple, which is designed to allow those who are presently locked out of the housing market, a helping hand to purchase or rent their own home. This includes “key workers”, first-home buyers, locals and those who are looking for affordable or community rental housing. Whilst no one can disagree that we are in a housing crisis, our View is that we will wait and see the finer details of the proposal before

having a position on what this means for our community. Questions need to be asked and answered: How is this different to the South Kiama proposal? -What is the plan for sewerage given the constraints on sewer and Sydney Water? -Do we finally get another supermarket and other jobs? -This is the start of the rezoning process, and the developer has said that construction will take place ‘over decades’. When the documents are made public, The Bugle, will review them in detail so we can provide the community with a well-informed View. But first things first, we want to hear from you. We are in a housing crisis where the average house price is $1.3m and it costs $700 a week to rent a home. Is this the solution to housing affordability for the area? Would it be better for Kiama to go ‘up’ and not ‘out’? Let us know, because at this stage and throughout the planning process, your View matters.

Gerringong Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC) demonstrated remarkable courage and efficiency on Saturday 13 January by conducting a mass rescue operation to save five swimmers, with more than 20 individuals in distress at Werri Beach. The incident unfolded during the scorching heat, with temperatures soaring over 29 degrees and high humidity, attracting a large crowd to the beaches. Gary George, the President of Gerringong SLSC and an active participant in the rescue operation, recounted that the emergency unfolded when approximately 30 teenagers from

Chittick Lodge ventured too far from shore, leading to about 20 of them struggling in the water simultaneously. Gary George, who was on patrol during the incident, revealed, "Eight lifesavers were on patrol, and six of them quickly entered the water with rescue tubes and boards." The situation became critical, requiring all six patrol members to use a variety of flotation devices concurrently to assist more than five people at risk of drowning. "It was touch and go with a couple of them; I am convinced there would have been loss of life if the patrol was not there," Gary stated,

underscoring the gravity of the situation. The mass rescue unfolded just after 5pm, perilously close to the usual closing time for patrols at Werri Beach. The heroic efforts of Gerringong SLSC members averted a potential tragedy, showcasing the vital role that trained lifeguards play in ensuring the safety of beachgoers, especially during crowded and challenging conditions. The incident serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of adhering to safety guidelines and staying within designated swimming areas.

Kiama Council to consider Blue Haven Bonaira tender

Mark Whalan

Kiama Council has confirmed that it will hold an Extraordinary Meeting on 1 February 2024 to consider the Blue Haven Bonaira tender, as well as deferred Notice of Motion to suspend the sale of Blue Haven and appoint an investigator from the Office of Local Government. The meeting will be held at Kiama Council Chambers at 5pm, and a public access session will be held at 4pm on the same day to allow members of the

public to offer their views to Councillors. The actual consideration of the Blue Haven Bonaira tend will take place in a confidential session. Kiama Council will publish the agenda for the meeting three days before it takes place (29 January 2024). Mayor Neil Reilly and CEO Jane Stroud will address Blue Haven staff, residents and other stakeholders the following week to discuss the outcome. On 11 December 2023,

Councillor Kathy Rice submitted a motion to suspend all action on the sale of Blue Haven Bonaira and instigate an investigation into the divestment process by the State Government. However, the debate around the notice of motion was deferred until February 2024. Kiama Council still has its next ordinary meeting scheduled for 13 February 2024.

Australia Day festivities: Coming to a beach near you

Wildlife blamed for power and train accidents

BRIEFS

Woman dies after truck crash at Dunmore

Kiama Council is bringing its Australia Day festivities to the beach, with Jones Beach in Kiama Downs to host celebrations on 26 January 2024. Mayor Neil Reilly said the town will celebrate on 26 January as it always has, but this time it will be among the sand and surf instead of a community hall. “Most of our community enjoy their Australia Day at their local beach or park, so we thought why not join them?” said Mayor Reilly. “The Kiama Downs Surf Life Saving Club gets a great turn out for their

Australia Day celebrations, and we’re delighted they’ve agreed to have us onboard.” “What could be a more appropriate way to mark our national day than at a local surf club?” The festivities kick off at 7am and run until 11am, and will feature Australia Day staples including a breakfast barbeque, Welcome to Country, citizenship ceremony, and plenty of beach games and activities. Jamberoo will host its own festivities at Kevin Walsh Oval from 9am to 11am with a barbeque, live music and activities. Gerringong

will also have a barbeque out the front of the Bowling Club at Werri Beach from 7am to 11am. Council usually hands out community awards on Australia Day, but has this year decided to move it to the same week as Local Government Week in August. “We’ve made this change to ensure a greater profile for our local community awards,” Mayor Reilly added. “It will coincide with the establishment of Kiama Council in August 1859.”

ANOTHER UNANDERRA POLICE CHASE ENDS IN ARREST

Another police pursuit through Unanderra this month has led to the arrest of a 34-year-old man on 13 charges, including driving recklessly, supplying a prohibited drug and having custody of a knife. Police spotted an alleged stolen vehicle in Unanderra on the Princes Highway at around 12:45pm on Tuesday 16 January 2024, and a police chase shortly ensued on Central Road. The man lost control of the car after mounting a median strip on Staff Road, where he then allegedly tried to run away from police before he was arrested by officers attached to the Southern Operations Group. Police subsequently searched the vehicle and found drugs, a knife and cash. He faced Wollongong Local Court on Wednesday 17 January, where he remains in custody. He will reappear in court on Tuesday 30 January 2024. It marks the second police chase through Unanderra this month, after a 16-year-old was arrested on 4 January after he stole a car from Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs.

Gerringong Surf Club’s Future is Bright Geringong Surf Club bid a heartfelt farewell to its current clubhouse over the weekend of 6 and 7 January, 2024, situated at the southern end of Werri Beach. The demolition phase has already begun, and a temporary kiosk and operations facility have been set up on the foreshore near the southern Werri Beach car park and is expected to be in operation for at least eight to nine months until the completion of the rebuild. Local-born and raised Iron Man Alistair (Ali) Day, a nine-time Coolangatta Gold Champion at 33 years old, has committed to participating in the Werri 2024 Warrior event around Christmas 2024. Although he’s currently based on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Alistair remains connected to his roots in Kiama. Gerringong Lions has accepted the challenge, assembling a formidable team for the 2024 Werri Warrior competition. The Werri Warrior, initially a sibling rivalry, has evolved into a challenging 45-minute event, with GLSC nipper Lucy Darragh surprising everyone by clinching victory in 2023. The competition fosters friendly rivalry among boardriders, the surf club, and the local football club. In 2023, Mitch Booth from the boardriders and Noah Parker from the surf club secured the team victory. Another significant aquatic event, the Captain Christie Ocean Swim, is scheduled for 17 March, 2024, taking swimmers from Gerringong Boat Harbour around the headland to Werri Beach. GSLC patrol captain Simon Sadler reported a busy day on Sunday, 14 January, 2024, with five rescues and one touch-and-go incident on the previous sweltering Saturday. The patrol was involved in removing debris

from a car that had rolled down the hill from Tasman Drive and landed on the beach. Gerringong SLSC President Gary George highlighted a recent incident where about 30 teenagers from Chittick Lodge swam beyond the designated area, leading to more than 20 individuals struggling in the water. Quick action by the patrol, with all eight members entering the water simultaneously, averted potential drowning incidents. Gary emphasised the crucial role of lifesaving movements in preventing beach drownings, comparing them to traffic accidents. During the ongoing rebuild, a temporary operations area, comprising six shipping containers in the southern car park, is serving as the temporary clubhouse. Gary George reassured The Bugle of security measures in place, including fencing, locks, and surveillance cameras. Gerringong Surf Life Saving Club, established in 1978, has experienced substantial growth in membership. With the current building unable to accommodate the increasing numbers, especially among Nippers, the club secured funding for a new clubhouse through a 2022 Federal election commitment and a 2023 grant from the NSW Department of Sport. The Kiama Council approved the redevelopment in April 2023. The new clubhouse, spanning approximately 1600 square meters, will feature essential facilities on the ground floor and a Members Bar, Kitchen, and function room on the upper storey. Gary George encouraged public participation in the submission process for the proposed new Lease and licence for the Gerringong Surf Club, with submissions

open until 1 February, 2024, through the council portal at kiama.nsw.gov. au under 'New Lease and Licence-Gerringong Surf Club.' President Gary George anticipates the grand reopening of the clubhouse in August-September 2025, marking the culmination of a five-year journey involving meticulous planning, fundraising efforts, and collaborative input from club members.

A few false starts and a few ‘bricks’ later, the couple were soon delivering fresh loaves of sourdough bread to family, friends and neighbours around Gerringong and Gerroa. The couple made Werri Beach their home after Victoria closed the borders during Covid-19 lockdowns during their visit. Originally from Cape Town, South Africa, the Cole’s found comfort in the familiar mountain and ocean landscapes and decided to make it their new home. While working their corporate jobs remotely, the vision slowly began to take shape, the delivery lists were growing and word of mouth propelled the business further. The community jumped at the chance to try fresh, homemade sourdough delivered to their door. The Cole’s took the opportunity to get to know their surroundings and the community who came together to support their dream of opening the bakery.

The mid-January opening marked a significant milestone for the Cole’s who watched their year-long vision come together. The community has embraced the bakery, its products and the owners and have contributed to its success. The owners have already received a lot of positive feedback which they said is very reassuring and encouraging. “I think they’re invested in the vision that we see for this space,” said Lucy Cole, “we have amazing people in our corner.” For the owners, the name “Slow Dough" isn't just about the process of making sourdough; it's a reflection on the concept of slow living. They envision a community that takes the time to meet, eat, and share good food together. The involvement of friends, family, and the community at large reaffirms the belief that it takes a village and the appreciation for their village runs deep. In the midst of paintbrushes and ladders, the owners are thankful for the extraordinary people in their corner. The bakery is more than a place that sells bread; it's a hub for building connections, fostering a sense of community, and sharing the joy of slow living—one sourdough loaf at a time sweet and Slow Dough is working on building savoury pastries, their team to help while they find their depending on the kinds of produce they feet here in Kiama.

Local artist Mikey Freedom is bringing a new, transformative art exhibition to Seven Marks Gallery in Kiama next month with Sunbather. The exhibition will be on display from 10 February to 23 March. Freedom navigates the balance of line, colour and shape, unravelling personal meanings within his compositions. Each piece depicts a ‘hopeful tide of future restful days against the contrast of our times.’ Freedom uses celebratory moments and weighty symbolism, leaving his work open for individual interpretation. The deeper narrative is intertwined with visions of lazy play, aimless pursuits and the resounding nature of summer. Freedom revels in a rich history of colour and exploratory composition to connect to his audience. Some of his work can be seen in several spots throughout Kiama, including the mural on the side of Scout’s Hall at Black Beach and Little Earth Cafe near the Little Blowhole. Freedom takes his role in the community seriously and enjoys lending his time and talents to the community. Seven Marks Gallery is currently showing the Colour & Space exhibition, featuring a range of local artists such as Phil Spelman, Scott Chaseling, Matt Heaney and Mikey Freedom, among others. This collection ends on 27 January to prepare for the Sunbather debut. Brooke Pittman

Meet the rural ambassadors keeping agriculture alive Four young ambassadors were selected at the Albion Park Show on 20 January to help usher in a new generation of experts and volunteers into the “Agricultural Show Movement.” The Rural Ambassador Program was started by Ryan McParland, a mechanical engineer for BlueScope by day, who has made it his mission to get more young people in NSW involved in agricultural shows, whether it’s presenting and running the show, or just showing up on the day. Four finalists were selected as Rural Ambassadors for the 2024 Albion Park Show, with Gerringong’s Bec Weir ultimately winning the top prize.

Bec is the embodiment of the modern agriculturalist, balancing her family life with two kids while working part-time at Bailey’s Dairy Farm, as well as retail jobs at Spotlight and Woolworths. She’s been involved in agriculture shows from a young age, showcasing everything from cattle to sewing to photography. Bec is currently developing an outreach program for schools and daycares that aims to bring agricultural knowledge to the next generation. Other finalists included Kate Bourke from Jamberoo, a qualified mechanic with a Certificate IV in agriculture. Kate has done a lot in the agricultural world, from fencing to working on a cropping

station, driving a chaser bin or working full-time on a dairy farm. She has previously been involved in pony club events, equestrian and showgirl competitions. Next is Sarah Evans from Warilla, who has qualifications in Performance Horses and Agriculture from Yallah TAFE. Sarah has been involved in local shows since she was eight years’ old, and has entered into the Albion Park Show almost every year since in a range of activities from crafting, Lego and baking. Sarah is also a volunteer for the Rural Fire Service, which she sees as a way to give back to the community. Finally, AG Shows NSW Encouragement Award Winner Liam Peason is a fitter

and turner from Shell Cove with a passion for agriculture and supporting youth with mental health issues. He has been involved with the Albion Park Show for years, and his interests include dairy cattle, horse riding, hunting, fishing and kayaking, in addition to his mental health advocacy. Congratulations to all the Rural Ambassadors for 2024. It’s promising to see the Rural Show Movement alive and well in the Illawarra, as well as so many representatives from the Kiama LGA keeping the region’s agricultural spirit alive.

Construction will finally begin on the first-ever female changing sheds at Gerry Emery Reserve on Bridges Road, Gerringong on Monday 29 January by local builder DES Constructions. It has been an ongoing issue for the oval, which is used by at least six sporting organisations including the Gerringong Breakers soccer club and the Gerringong Jets cricket team. To this day, female players are forced to change in cars or behind trees. The number of women using the oval is estimated at up to 4000 per year. President of the Gerringong All Sports Club, John Trevenar told The Bugle "We have about 4000 women from different sports who use these fields in a 12 month period, and they have never had a female changing shed.” The current All Sports Club was built around 40 years ago and was built with only one changing room. He said Cricket Australia and NSW Sports provided about half a million in

funding, but that will not be enough to finish the project. John is very grateful to the many local sponsors such as Gerringong Hardware, which has stepped up and contributed to make the project a reality. The new changing shed will also include additional toilets and referee changing rooms, including a room designed to be accessible for amputee referees. John also wants to thank the many sponsors including Austin McMahon with his excavator, Gerringong Hardware, Gerringong Physio, Dulux Paint, Cronin Liquor and the many locals and businesses directly contributing their labor and their materials to turn the project into a reality. You can follow the future progress on the build, and the sponsors, on the Facebook Page Gerringong District All Sports Inc Page.

Registration for Kiama Football legends Junior Knights now open

Noddy & Tony Henderson coming to Jamberoo

Football fans will be in for a treat next month with legendary players Adrian “Noddy” Alston and Tony Henderson sharing stories at Jamberoo Pub on 6 February 2024. The night will feature a panel composed of Noddy and Tony, as well as former Arsenal Goalkeeper Ron Tilsed and author Philip Micallef, who penned ‘Noddy: the Untold Story of Adrian Alson’. Guests will also be treated to a complimentary drink and buffet-style meal. Nicknamed ‘Noddy’ for his heading abilities, Adrian is known for being instrumental in helping Australia qualify in its first FIFA World Cup in 1974, scoring three goals in the group stage and once during the final play-off match against Iran. He also managed the Wollongong Wolves

As the school year returns for 2024, the transition from primary to secondary school is a significant step in a child’s education. Around 53,000 Australian students will start Year 7 this year and

Education Secretary Murat Dizdar encourages a seamless shift for Year 7 students by starting preparations ahead of time. Here are ten top tips for starting high school:

Purchase all supplies such as uniforms and stationery – break in new school shoes Practise public transport, driving and walking routes to school Encourage your child to be organised, set goals, seek support and be resilient Use the family fridge for timetables and important dates Choose a designated homework space for study Don’t let phones and devices interrupt homework and family time Pack the night before school starts and get a good night’s sleep Check in after school with open-ended questions about the day Reassure your child that their family and teachers are there to support them Remember, Year 7 is a partnership between students, families and schools. Stay in touch There’s two weeks to go until the first term commences and Dizdar emphasised

the importance of attendance and engagement. “Every day at school matters to the education and life outcomes of our young people. We ask families to support our schools and ensure their children develop good attendance habits.” Preparation is key, by ensuring aspects such as transport, uniforms, and study spaces are organised you give your child the best chance for a smooth transition. Parents are encouraged to familiarise themselves with their child’s school and foster a sense of excitement for the school year. Parents can organise transport for their children through Transport for NSW to obtain school travel passes or school Opal cards. Additionally purchasing items from the school equipment and book lists and having an organisational system in place will also help your child feel prepared. It is normal for children to feel nervous but beginning

to build strong habits during the holidays will help to ease the stress of the change. As the countdown to the first day of school begins, the focus turns to organisational skills, limiting device use, and preparing the essentials. “I wish the Year 7 class of ‘24 a fun and engaging year of learning and wellbeing growth,” said Dizdar. Catherine Glover, Kiama High Principal, also believes in the importance of open communication, adding that parents should be across all platforms of communication from schools as well. Reading the regular correspondence and being aware of what is happening in your child’s school is extremely important in supporting your child’s education. Preparation is key and Glover hopes that parents will encourage their children to be organised paying particular attention to attendance and punctuality. Creating a calm home environment and reducing stress

is also an important aspect to consider. Waghorn suggests cutting down on extra curricular activities to aid in adjusting to a new routine “Children need supportive adults around them during school transitions.” Consistent after-school routines, a well-balanced diet, and earlier bedtimes are highlighted as essential elements to prevent overwhelm and fatigue. Another tip Waghorn suggests is for parents to talk positively with their children about the school experience. Highlighting the fun and exciting aspects of going back to school such as making new friends, meeting teachers can all help to calm nerves. Catherine Glover is looking forward to a new school year at Kiama High, commencing on 30 January. Brooke Pittman

T o p 1 0 t i p s f o r s ta r t i n g k i n d e r g a r t e n Top ten tips to prepare for Kindergarten The start of term is nearing and 63,000 children are gearing up to begin their primary school journey. It is important that our youngest students are supported by their school, teachers and families as they reach this milestone. Education Secretary Murat Dizdar said, “starting school is a rite of passage and a key transition point in education,” the goal is to create memorable experiences for these young learners. Here are ten top tips to help children transition into Kindergarten: Walk or drive past the school regularly before

school starts and be positive Remind children they will go to school each weekday, not just on the first day Embed routines in the summer holidays like getting up on time Practise how to dress independently – uniform, socks and school shoes Don’t overload the school bag Pack a healthy lunchbox with lots of easy to open snacks and a water bottle Practise social skills and ask open-ended questions Explain hygiene behaviours and practise going to the toilet Reassure your child it’s OK to tell the teacher what they need and how they feel

Gareth Ward Calls for action on plastic waste

26 January - 9 February

Read with your child for 15 minutes every day. There are practical steps families can take during the remainder of the school holidays. Skills such as independent dressing, lunchbox planning and packing school bags should be discussed and practised with your little one. Social and hygiene skills are also important to work on as school goes back to ensure health habits are fostered, parents are encouraged to discuss proper toilet etiquette, hand washing and cooperative play before term begins. Reading to your child and practising counting will serve to help your child

feel more prepared once in the classroom. Above all, reassuring your child that they can talk to their teachers and school staff about how they are feeling is crucial. Starting ‘big school’ is an incredible change and children are encouraged to advocate for themselves and talk about their feelings as they transition. As the kindergarten class of 2024 embarks on their educational journey, NSW Education endeavours to provide a world-class education with a commitment to the holistic development of our youngest students.

NSW Member for Kiama Gareth Ward has spoken about his continued support for policy action regarding plastic waste in NSW. Ward’s comments come after the release of the most recent NSW Parliamentary Research Service paper: ‘Single-use plastic product bans in Australia’. The paper examines the details surrounding the policy approaches of various jurisdictions in NSW. Ward emphasised the severity of the plastic pollution crisis warning that by the year 2050, there may be more plastic than fish by weight in our oceans. “NSW alone generates 800,000 tonnes of plastic waste each year and only 12 per cent of it is recycled,” says Ward.

Brooke Pittman

The plastic pollution crisis is severe and does more than harm the environment, it impacts human consumption with the

spread of microplastics into our food, water and air. Various plastic bans, including

lightweight bags, straws and cutlery were introduced under the 2021 NSW Plastic Action Plan in NSW. Additional bans were proposed by the NSW Government in October 2023, including take away cups, plastic cigarette filters and heavyweight plastic bags. Ward is committed to conservation and has previously opposed coal seam gas projects in water catchment areas because “it was the right thing to do for our region and for our local environment.” “We do not want plastic ending up in our rivers, beaches, oceans or water catchment areas or impacting upon or endangering any of our native marine wildlife.” Ward urges the implementation of legislative and policy actions that are necessary to keep improving the environment and policy response to plastic waste. “I stand ready to work with all levels of government to improve the Plastics Action Plan and to improve our State’s policy response on plastic waste.” Brooke Pittman

Ever wonder why you don’t see kids wearing patches anymore? Wearing an eye patch used to be a common and noticeable treatment for children to make a lazy eye work harder. Patching can carry social stigma for children, but usually only when they are school aged. Some research was done to investigate this by showing children of different ages a stack of photos of other children, some of whom had a patch or an eye turn. They had to select photos of children they would like to invite to a party. Pre-schoolers were just as likely to choose children with patches or eye turns to their party as those with straight eyes, but school aged children were less likely. We still patch children to improve lazy eye, but they are no longer required to wear it all day. Research has shown that 4 hours of patching gives equivalent results to full-time patching. Once we measure some improvement, we can even drop to 2 hours per day. We can now also patch “chemically” using eyedrops. If you have any concerns for your children’s vision then please contact us to make an appointment or visit eyeq.com.au to book online.

Gamified at-home exercise is key to reducing fall risks in the elderly

26 January - 9 February

Research conducted by Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA) has found at-home gamified exercises to be effective in preventing falls in individuals over 65 years old. Falls were reduced by 26 per cent when compared to a control group. Falls are a significant public health issue that contributes to mobility related disability and a loss of independence. They are the second leading cause of unintentional injury deaths worldwide, with one in three people over 65 experiencing a fall each year. Regular balance challenging activities are key to reducing the risk of falling. The smart+step is an exercise gaming system developed by NeuRA designed for intuitive, safe and self-guided use in the home. “It was really encouraging to see that smart+step, an exergaming console that anyone can enjoy

at home completely unassisted from a therapist, brought a benefit to older people by preventing falls,” said Dr. Daina Sturniek, Senior Research Scientist at NeuRA and UNSW Sydney. A large study was conducted which involved participants living in the community over the age of 65. Participants were instructed to spend 120 minutes per week over a 12-month period doing smart+step exercise games. The comparative control group received a public health pamphlet about preventing falls. The group that used smart+step showed evidence of decreased fall risk. “We’ve known for a long time that, if done correctly and consistently, balance challenging exercises because they can get boring very quickly,” said Sturniek. By gamifying the experience, smart+step encourages the consistency required to have a positive and lasting effect on balance and

cognitive function. The smart+step exercise games, commonly called exergames, require users to think and move quickly, unlike traditional exercise programs. Not only are there physical health benefits but undertaking this brain training helps with balance and coordination as well. The exergames involve stepping on a mat that is the controller used to navigate various activities such as collecting treasures, stomping on cockroaches or avoiding obstacles. “Exergames are like a two-inone; you get physical benefits but also you are keeping yourself cognitively challenged, which is good for the brain and healthy ageing Plus it's fun!” Those interested in purchasing the system can join a waitlist by emailing smartstep@neura.edu.au.

My husband and I noticed the one located on the wharf in front of Cargos fish & chips was missing about 6 months ago. We contacted Council twice to let them know, who said they also weren't sure who was responsible but would follow it up, however nothing has happened. Is it going to take an incident to get some action on this? I hope not! Thank you for listening.

What else can be done by our community? Most of us drive past this daily. Are we all really so complacent, going about our day and our lives and ok with what is going on here? Do we think it's ok that our government is letting this go ahead, despite community opposition? Surely if there was enough community opposition they would have to listen? If we all took to the streets protesting they would listen? Why aren't we doing this? Don't enough people care? I'm so glad there's an 'I want to vent' category here, but really I'd love for more coverage from you on this topic and sharing news of Wendy Smith, Kiama Downs any further protesting we can all be part of.

visions of australia bring art and culture exhibitions to you Visions of Australia bring Art and Culture exhibitions to you An art funding program called Visions of Australia is looking for applicants. With a specific focus on remote and rural areas of the country, the program seeks to increase accessibility of exhibitions of quality Australian art and culture. The Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts is offering funding to encourage collaboration between museums, galleries and other organisations to create curatorial partnerships, offering mentoring and skills transfer opportunities. The funding is delivered in two ways; development or touring, designed to subsidise various costs including exhibition design, crating, installation, freighting and artist loan fees. The program is very competitive, with funding opportunities available twice a year, usually in February and September.

Eligibility requires organisations to be incorporated with a principal focus on arts and/or cultural heritage. Unincorporated groups that do have an arts/cultural heritage focus are still eligible with a sponsorship from an organisation that meets the criteria. Projects must include a tour with at least three venues outside the applicant's state or territory, including consecutive exhibition dates and at least one regional or remote venue. Tour applications must provide venue confirmation forms, while development applications should include expressions of interest forms from each venue. Visions of Australia plays a crucial role in fostering cultural inclusivity and collaboration across the Australian arts landscape. Applications open next month, with approximately $2.7 million in funding available each year For more information you can visit their website.

Jazz & Blues federal government chips in

The Kiama Jazz and Blues Festival has received another financial injection to make the annual festival a reality after Member for Gilmore Fiona Phillips announced a $96,000 grant The Kiama Jazz and Blues Festival has received a $96,000 grant from the Federal Government to make the festival a reality in its 37th year. Member for Gilmore Fiona Phillips announced Kiama Jazz & Blues Festival as one of two festivals to receive a share of the $2.5 million on offer under the Government’s Live music Australia program. The NelliJam Music Festival in Nelligen will also receive $23,903. The latest grant comes in addition to the $17,000 allocated by Kiama Council to the Kiama Jazz & Blues Festival in December 2023 as part of the Signature Community Event fund. “The South Coast has

so much to offer, and our ever-growing live music scene is just one way to soak up a bit of fun and frivolity in the country – what could be better,” said Fiona Phillips. “Sharing Australian music, art and culture is what Aussies do best, and I am just so delighted to see the Albanese Government investing almost $120,000 to support music festivals in our community.” Festival organiser Becky Guggisberg said she was thrilled to receive the grant, which will help the festival prepare for its 40th year in a few years time. “The Federal Government recognises that live music in Australia is a really important part of our culture and they see the value in this festival that began at the grassroots level and has managed to survive for 37 years. They’re very much in support of the fact that we

help artists rise through the ranks and get seen in different contexts.” Becky said one of the core beliefs of the festival’s organisers is that artists are paid fairly, and this recent grant helps ensure that everyone is fairly compensated. “The other part of this grant is the hope of having a sustainable approach to live music. We want to encourage other spaces to be venues, not just during the festival. I think [the Federal Government was] impressed that the festival has helped foster places like Fillmores, El Corazon and the Bowlo to have live music. It’s in our culture to love live music.” The next round of funding will open in February and target small to medium live music venues. Brendon Foye

Mike Tikkeros

Kiama Sculptor Anyone who lives in Hillview Circuit in South Kiama or has driven through is aware of the amazing sculpture garden at the very northern end of the circuit, which is overrun with amazing metal sculptures. The sculptor is Mike Tikkeros and he admits he has run out of space at his home to store the many sculptures he has made. One surprising fact is that the sculptures are surprisingly easy to transport, as Mike has designed the various parts to all click in and out “You have to think like an engineer,” Mike says. Most parts are scavenged from various places, even unusual pieces of wood he finds in nature. Many are repurposed parts from various pieces of machinery, with over one thousand parts from different machines. The sculptures include all such ideas, mainly from metal. The most striking is the more than two-metre high metal sculpture of the creature from the movie ‘Alien’ in his front garden. The sculp-

tures also include yachts, boats, movie cameras, frogs, aliens, instruments (electric guitar – Van Halen fan), violin, didgeridoo, harp, and many other ideas. There are now more than 300 sculptures in his home.

Mike says his lounge room no longer has a lounge because it's been taken over by sculptures, but his wife Kylie is OK with it.

As previously reported by The Bugle, it was unclear what had happened to the Jubilee Gates where only the pillars now remain in Blackwood Street Gerringong. A number of Gerringong residents expressed interest in what actually happened to the gate, formerly the entrance to the park, and now Blackwood Street. Gerringong Museum has very kindly given The Bugle all the information it has on the Jubilee Park Gates Pillars in Blackwood Street Gerringong. Diane Hindmarsh also very kindly came forward with photographs of her grandmother, Edith Sharpe with her husband Gerringong Mayor Stanley Sharpe officially opening the Jubilee Gates on 14 November 1936. Some mystery remains as it is still unclear what year the Jubilee Gate was actually removed and when Blackwood Street was opened to Rowlins Road. The gate still exists at a residence in Greta Street. According to the material from Diane Hindmarsh, it became the property of Norman Parrish who lived adjacent to the gate’s way. Reports say the gates still exist on a property in Greta Street. The gates were designed and built by Alexander George Carson of Kiama at a cost of £54 to commemorate the opening of the new pavilion and sports ground. The gates were commissioned by Gerringong Municipal Council and named in honour of King George V. The gates were officially opened on Saturday 14 November 1936. Although rain had been predicted for the weekend, everyone welcomed the beautiful af-

ternoon which was enjoyed for the official opening of the new sports pavilion and memorial gates at Jubilee Park. Here is the entire report for the Kiama Reporter on 18 November 1936: The Kiama Reporter published an article on the opening ceremony in the Wednesday 18th November 1936 edition There was a large attendance, including visitors from neighbouring centres, and were loud in the praise of the fine new sports area and substantially built pavilion, with its beautiful views over land and sea. The memorial gates are also very artistic and a fitting entrance to what is one of the nicest parks along the coast. At four o’clock the people assembled at the gate and the Gerringong Band, conducted by Mr J.A. Winley, augmented by bandsmen from Kiama and Berry, played a selection. The mayor (Ald. S.N. Sharpe) said that Gerringong Municipal Council had thought it very fitting to dedicate the entrance to their park as a token of respect to the memory of the late King George V., their beloved Monarch, who was one of the best Kings who ever sat on the throne of England.

The Band played the National Anthem and the Town Clerk called for three cheers for the King, which was heartily given. A procession of cars was then formed and drove into the park and up to the pavilion. The mayor said that Mr Spooner, the Minister for Works and Local Government, had been unable to come, but they had a very good substitute in Mr H.J. Bate, M.L.A. the member for South Coast, and an old friend of the Gerringong district. As regards the park, council considered it one of their duties to provide facilities for the sporting bodies, and they thought that the money had been well spent on the reconstruction of the park and the building of the new pavilion, so that this park was now second to none on the South Coast. Mr Bate said that the dedication of the gates to the memory of the late King Geroge was a gesture such as might have been expected from the Gerringong people. They were to be congratulated on their fine new pavilion and reconstructed ground, which had been carried out with the aid of a Government Grant. Mr Bate used a fine presentation silver key to open the pavilion. This was combined with a paper knife and presented to Mr Bate by the mayor. If you have any other Sherlocking you would like the Bugle to undertake to solve local mysteries send an email to

His Worship then handed a nice pair of presentation scissors to Mrs Sharpe who cut the tricolour ribbon, which was stretched across the gates, and also unveiled the brass memorial tablet, thanking the Aldermen for their kind invitation to perform the ceremony and declaring the park officially hello@thebuglenewspaper. open. Mrs Sharpe then distributed pieces of the ribbon com.au as souvenirs of the memorable occasion.

A dive around ocean windfarms The hostile Illawarra floating ocean windfarm (OWF) ‘debate’ is a Punch and Judy Show, where facts are hounded out by opinions and everyone has an opinion. Some bizarre straw-clutching claims have been made against OWFs (see Crikey) and for an excellent research paper on the socio-psycho aspects of windfarm complaints, see ‘Wind turbine syndrome, a communicated disease,’ by Simon Chapman and Fiona Crichton. This story cuts through the noise and examines the current research on floating windfarms. We know a lot about the benefits of windfarms but we don’t know much about their impact on whales. One OWF turbine can produce enough electricity in a year to power approximately 20,000 households and save around 38,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. That’s the equivalent of removing 25,000 cars from the road each year. On current projections, Australian consumers will soon pay the average power prices of 2-3 person households in the UK. That’s £2100 (including the gov-

ernment subsidy) per year or about $4000 Australian dollars. This will pauperise low-income earners. The Australian government has the power to lock-in OWF developers into fixed-price contracts, to protect consumers from soaring energy prices. More than 60 per cent of Australia’s population live on or near the coast with cities such as Newcastle, Sydney and Melbourne. Building offshore wind farms is nation building and will help these cities meet their energy needs from nearby sources. While some complaints are bonkers – such as OWF’s will block the sunrise - others are legitimate and require significant on-site investigation by independent

researchers. The Visual Aspect It may be heartless but the Federal Government, cares little about visual aesthetics of the OWGs. Its aim is to reduce carbon emissions and provide cheaper power to consumers. The curvature of the earth will help ‘reduce’ their height but they will be visible from the shore. Whales About 25-35,000 Humpback whales travel up and back where they plan to build the 300 OWFs. No one has done any location-specific research. The frequency range of Humpback whale songs fluctuates between 20-24,000 Hertz and their songs can travel for more than 30 kilometres

and some believe they can travel 1000s of kilometres. We don’t know how these whales may be affected. One Scottish Association for Marine Science study in 2018 of audio recordings from a hydrophone 200 metres from the Kincardine offshore wind farm off the northeast coast of Scotland, recorded mooring line snaps every few minutes. These happen when the windfarm moves. How far can these ‘snaps’ be heard? One important aspect is the degree to which whales will be affected. If whales die or mating patterns change, that is serious. If they simply change course, that is another matter. Electromagnetic fields Research shows that while

ers, build the platforms, the transmission and mooring cables and more. A recent Infrastructure Australia report states a shortfall of 229,000 workers is looming across the infrastructure sector, which will make planning for new power generation very difficult. Government and the private sector have reported large project cost overruns due to worker shortages, supply chain problems, underwater power cables and the high number of do emit electromagnetic infrastructure work spread fields (EMF), the intensity across the country.

Medieval Head Banging The Albion Park-based medieval reenactment group, the Knights of Albion, thrilled the crowds at the Albion Park Show with their bouts of knightly combat. The Albion Park Agricultural Show was held Friday on 19 January to Sunday 21 January 2024, but the main day for activities was Saturday 20 January. All the usual sections for judging were on show, including cattle judging, show jumping for horses and ponies, goats and in the Pavillion, a whole range of vegetables, flowers and other categories were on show and for judging. Braidan Swan won the prestigious Rose Championship with a magnificent yellow rose. An unusual entertainment on offer beside the Knights was a Demolition Derby held on Saturday night, where cars crash into each other until only one car can still move, and is declared the winner. The winner was Jayden Taylor. Baron Jadein Gibson Davis, Secretary of the Knights of Albion (Baron is his first

name) told The Bugle, “For an inaugural tournament I think we did a damned good job, the start of many more to come. Lot of good showings from a lot of new fighters. The crowd heard the clash of steel from demolition derby and the clash from men.” Buhurt is a style becoming popular in the Aussie medieval reenactment scene and uses blunted full contact metal swords onto padded and steel armour. In Australia, it is run by the Australian Medieval Combat Federation, which has 15 clubs across Australia including the Ruthless Rabbits of Preston Victoria. The AMCF runs Nationals where all clubs compete. The origins of the Knights of Albion started when Chino, the team captain, started the South Cross Chimps about three years ago in Nowra. When he moved to Wollongong it relocated to Albion Park, and the group naturally renamed themselves as Knights of Albion and trained at Albion Park Centenary Hall twice a week. The KOA now train twice

a week at the Albion Park Poultry Pavilion and you can get in contact through their Facebook Page Knights of Albion. “Played D&D since I was 12, and tried to get my friends involved, and started LARP in NSW and then heard about Buhurt,” Baron Jaiden said. The combatants have Marshals to monitor any injuries, who can stop fights and first aid is available on site. Baron said the next stop for the Knights of Albion is the Viking festival at Sussex Inlet on 8 June 2024. Other Illawarra reenactment groups include the College of Saint Malachy at Wollongong University, who are part of the international SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) and the fantasy LARP group Battle Cry Wollongong who meet every second Saturday in Stuart Park.

A little bit of Foxy cricket history Last year, The Bugle published an article about the 100th anniversary of the Gerringong and District Cricket Association. There were five clubs that existed, Gerringong Town (The Seagulls) Toolijooa, Omega, Crooked River and Foxground. When the Association folded in 1938, all those clubs ceased to exist. This was a pity as they were such a big part of the community in those days. Foxground 90 years ago was such a vibrant community with a school, church and post office. There have been get-togethers from time to time, whereby old residents have met and remembered the good times. Horris Kemp, the schoolteacher, was a favourite topic. I was talking to Brad Speering, President of the Gerringong Cricket Club, about this and he said “no worries, I have established a social competition of cricket with five teams starting this year.” The teams will have the names of the five clubs from 100 years ago. He has even designed brightly coloured shirts. The name ‘Foxground Renegades’ will be prominently displayed on one of the shirts. I felt a tinge of excitement thinking about how proud the ghosts all of the residents of the old Foxground village would feel seeing the old Foxground Cricket Club live again, if only in a social competition. It got me thinking about an old article my father, Clive Emery, wrote about a cricket game between Foxground Cricket Club and a visiting group from Tonga. It does not have a date but I am sure it would have been in the 1930s sometime as that is when my father lived in Foxground. I wanted to share his story of the day as it mentions such a large number of those wonderful people from that community: Other writers may tell of their games, but I will restrict myself to one in particular that was as a fun game which the Foxground team played against a Tongan team brought to Australia by the members of the Methodist Church fraternity, Tonga being under their jurisdiction. The game was to be played during the week, so as not to impinge on the Saturday competition games. All hands and the cook attended as if it was an International game. School holidays were on, so most of the boys from the Foxground School were present, hoping to be included in the game if needed, which we were, since the Tongans brought along fifteen hefty fellows, all anxious to be part of the teams. It was therefore decided that all should have a bat, so our team picked enough of the schoolkids to make up to fifteen as well. It was the first and only time all the fielding positions ever invented were fully manned. We could almost hold hands around the batsmen! It was a terrific morning with plenty of sun-

shine. I had the stove hot before I went to the going to boil the water for tea. milking yard, to assist mother with her cookVenie Craig took him up on that, and said ing for the great day, and I know most of the if she fell in she would take him with her, women in the Foxground Valley were doing which he parried declaring if he had to fall in he hoped it would be with a younger woman, which brought a grimace, and a rather scalding response. By common consent the visitors were allowed to have first bat, and Stan opened the bowling, with Wenty stating he would be one umpire and Billy Winter at other end. Before the game started I heard Wenty whispering in Billy’s ear that he could close his eyes a bit to appeals, and Billy nodded his approval.

the same, for we were doing the entertaining and a big crowd was expected. Irvine Thompson would be taking his kerosene can along, blackened by the many services it had rendered for the making of tea, and a factory can of water for all purposes. Mollie Foley would be making her prize-winning sponges, cemented together with ample whipped and flavoured cream. My mother would be making enough scones and sandwiches to feed an army, and this would be replicated in the homes of all our players and supporters. Our home ground was really in Broughton Village, a mile south of Foxground, and an assortment of cars and sulkies gathered about and horses were tethered to a fence in the shade of the gum trees beyond the boundary line by the time Stanton’s truck load of happy Tongans arrived. They were dressed in the home costumes of shirt and skirt, with happy smiles and bare feet with pink soles and heads of massed curly hair. It was the first time most of the schoolmates had seen men coming to play cricket with bare feet, and thought it an odd thing to do, especially as we had a couple fast bowlers in Stan Leaney and Jack Thompson! The ladies arrived with their baskets of food, and Wenty Craig helped them across the stream that was one boundary of the ground. The pole bridging the stream was a bit daunting for them, so members of our team took their baskets across and then helped the ladies safely across to the shade of four gum trees where the meal was to be held, Irvine suggesting we should not trust them to carry the food across, else it might be lodged in the stream and be lost, but if a lady fell in she would surely survive and he could dry her off when he had the fire

Harry Miller was our wicket-keeper, and advised Stan to bowl on the off, not so much for the comfort of the visitors as much as for himself to get a good sight of the fast deliveries he had to stop. The wickets began to fall, but the Tongan captain, a huge fellow about fifteen stone proved a defiant batsman and began to take charge of our bowlers, and Irvine called upon Stan to lob one on his big toe nail as the way to get him out, but Wenty declared it would be a no-ball if he did, but Irvine said he would be able use the toenail for a shovel (as it was larger than a crown piece). Meanwhile, Stan kept bowling on the off as directed, then he bowled one on the leg side that the batsman could not handle, and neither could Harry, for it struck him right in the middle of his large paunch and knocked the wind out of him for a while, and he had to sit down and have the spot massaged by the slip fieldsmen to get his wind back. This caused a deal of merriment for the Tongan batsmen, but not as much as when Alan Motley slipped on the pole and dangled his feet in the stream, unable to resurrect

himself, and had to shuffle along the pole to the other side. Then it was lunch time, and Irvine, who had the can of tea boiled and wanted to call everyone to lunch, so he asked one of the Tongans how to call their fellows to lunch, and the fellow said: ‘Kai-Kai’, so Irvine kept calling out: ‘Kai-Kai’, until his wife told him to shut-up, ‘he sounded like a young magpie swallowing a grub!’ The luncheon was a hilarious occasion. Everyone was in a joyous mood, and suitable speeches were made, with Irvine declaring Mollie Foley’s sponge cakes were high enough to make a milking-stool, when she proudly accepted as praise when she brought them forth. The Tongans had scored one hundred and five runs and would have scored more if the ball had not been hit into the stream. A thorough search was required to find it and so much time was lost. With luncheon over, the Foxground team went in to bat. The two Thompson boys Jack and Tom opened for us, while the rest of our team sat under the Coral trees to watch, along with my sister Olive who was the Foxground scorer. One of our chaps hit a ball high into the air and it was going to come down where we sat, so Billy Winter, who had been relieved of umpiring, made to catch it, but the nor-east wind caused it to swerve and, in its descent, caught Billy right on the nose, which sent him to the stream to stop the bleeding. He had to have a handkerchief knotted around his head to protect the skinned area. He explained how he ‘had his eye on the ball, and the wind caught it, and…’ but Wenty Craig assured him if he had his eye on it he would have a black eye and not a bloody nose! Meanwhile, we sat and applauded every stroke and run, to try and urge our players to greater efforts. It was all great fun; even the tricks played on the unsuspecting spectators by Frank Thompson, one of our schoolmates, when he tickled the ears of the intense barrackers with a straw of paspalum grass and had them repeatedly slapping at the imaginary flies all the while. Frank was our fifteenth batsman and managed to win the game on an overthrow! We loaded our visitors on the lorry and gave them three mighty cheers and a basket of left-over food as they moved off, while we rolled up the mats and stacked the gear away. Altogether it had been a great day; one not to be remembered for the game itself, but by the comradeship and good humour of players and spectators alike, not to mention of course, the Billy tea and superlative luncheon provided by the ladies.’ Mark Emery

Morbid Curiosity Unveiled -

Insights from a Death Cafe

Engaging in conversations about death is often shrouded in societal taboo, but the veil is lifting in Gerringong, thanks to organisations like Compassionate Communities. Breaking the silence, they provide safe havens, such as Death Cafés, where individuals can openly share thoughts, ask questions, and recount stories sans judgment. At a recent Death Café in Gerringong, attendees delved into the world of 'life art coffins.' These personalised coffins, acting as canvases for expressions of love and memories, allow for a unique and meaningful tribute to the departed through photos and poems, resembling a poignant collage. Crafted from eco-friendly materials like sturdy cardboard or wood fibres, these coffins present an affordable and environmentally conscious alternative to conventional options. The Coffin Club, another distinctive group, injects discussions about death with humour, music, and shared experiences. Beyond

conversations about death literacy, participants also have the chance to construct their own coffins, fostering a creative and communal approach to destigmatising the topic and promoting a healthier understanding of grief. The gathering shed light on Dr. Kathryn Mannix, a former consultant in palliative care medicine. Her TEDx talk, "Why Don't We Talk About Dying?" and acclaimed books like 'With the End in Mind' and 'Listen,' offer a human perspective on 'ordinary dying,' encouraging people to face the inevitable with knowledge and understanding. Participants also explored various end-of-life options, from natural burial shrouds to affordable coffins and low-cost cremation. Conversations spanned advanced care planning, urging individuals to articulate their end-of-life preferences. An Advance Care Directive serves as a written record, guiding healthcare providers in decision-making when

thebuglenewspaper.com.au

individuals can't speak for themselves. Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD) emerged as another discussed option, providing eligible individuals the choice to end their lives under specific criteria. Rigorous assessments ensure the decision is voluntary and not influenced by external factors. The Death Café gathering fostered an open and honest exchange of stories, thoughts, and tears, creating a peaceful atmosphere where attendees absorbed valuable insights without pressure to contribute. It became a space where learning about death was an enriching experience. For those intrigued, Death Cafe are scheduled here and in neighbouring towns regularly. The events are free to attend, and all are welcome. One attendee shared, "I have a friend whose partner has terminal cancer, and we are going together."

Parkes at Elvis Festival time is a very busy place, filled with hundreds/thousands in Elvis costumes and countless performances by Elvis impersonators, who prefer to be called “tribute artists”. With accommodation at an absolute premium in Parkes and surrounds, we were pleased to discover that Railway Adventures, a company owned by TV personality Scott McGregor, was planning to run its inaugural “Elvis Special” journey, so we jumped on board. We left Central a couple of hours after the well-known “Elvis Express”. Refurbished carriages from the old Southern Aurora that are now privately owned provided our accommodation and most meals, and became our home for four days. Our forward journey used the southern route via Cootamundra and included a lunch-time concert by tribute artist Damian Mullin at the Centennial Winery at Bowral en route to the Festival. Once at Parkes, the train was stabled in a siding with the Main Stage in

Cooke Park, only a couple of hundred metres away as we enjoyed three days at the Festival. And what a great time we and 25,000 others had! All shows at Cooke Park are free, as they are in many other venues, while some signature concerts are ticketed. The atmosphere was great, with this year’s Festival theme “Jailhouse Rock”. In the traditional Festival Street Parade on the Saturday morning for over 45 minutes decorated floats and vintage cars, featuring countless costumed Elvis’s and Miss Priscilla’s, many in jailhouse apparel, sang and played Elvis songs. For a change of pace you could even play “Jailbird Croquet”! We were amazed at the overall quality of the Elvis tribute artists, many of whom are world-renowned, such as Taylor Rodriguez and Cote Deonath. Given Elvis Presley’s musical beginnings, the Sunday morning Elvis Gospel Service on the Main Stage is regarded as a key part of the Festival, with renowned tribute artist Gabe Phoenix and up-and-coming

15-year-old Charlie Gaylard performing brilliantly. Guest speakers including the Mayor, local clergy and ministry representatives and former inmates from the local Kairos Prison featured in the Service, very appropriate for the Festival’s Jailhouse Rock theme. We were on a high when our “Elvis Special” train rolled out of Parkes station around midday on Sunday, but the Elvis atmosphere well and truly remained in the lounge and dining cars on the train as we headed east through picturesque countryside towards the Blue Mountains, Central and home. One of the best weekends of our lives. Make sure you get to at least one Parkes Elvis Festival in your lifetime using any means of transport and accommodation. If you don’t enjoy the shows on the Main Stage in Cooke Park we will fully refund your entry fee. Please do go to the Festival- after all, “It’s now or never.” Heather and Gordon Bell

revitalising relationships

‘For things to change, first I must’ Renowned American entrepreneur and motivational speaker, Jim Rohn once said: ‘If you want things to change, you must change. If you want things to be better, you must be better.’ What he’s talking about is the importance of taking responsibility for your own life and making changes to achieve personal growth and success. He believed that change is a natural part of life, and it is up to each individual to embrace change and use it as an opportunity to learn and grow. I see many relationships in my rooms that are struggling with continuous arguing, not productive strategies to resolve conflict well, being stuck in the past, people not willing to solve issues …. The list goes on.

I have asked myself why these issues appear so many times, and I keep coming back to one basic fact: often when relationship difficulties arise, people blame the partner or other person. And Rohn believes it is up to us to change, not wait for the other person. If only she……. I often hear ‘we would get along well if she…..’ or ‘If he improved on that, we would get along famously.’ Notice what is happening here – the individual will be happy if the other person changes or does something different. And as we have no control over the behaviour of others, there is no certainty they will change, because they may think you are the problem. So, what is the best way to have a strong, happy relationship – if it’s a partner, a family member, a friend, a colleague or even the neighbour? Firstly, each person needs to look at the behaviours, beliefs and attitudes they bring to the relationship, acknowledging that some could be problematic. This takes courage, because it’s easier to blame others when things in the relationship go wrong because admit it – we don’t want to

feel part of the problem. If you recognise what you do to contribute to the problem, work out how to get better at it so the influence is a good one, not one that contributes to the problem. Most importantly, for things to change, first I must change. Focus on you, not the other person. Blaming others is a waste of time and will get you nowhere. Am I part of the problem, or part of the solution? We all bring our past into our relationships because our history (in part) determines who we are. If we are constantly arguing or the issues between you don’t seem to be resolved, then you may need expert help to move you through the ‘stuck’ zones and give you greater insight into how you can improve those areas where you both struggle. It takes two to make a relationship work. Two of you who want the relationship to work and will do whatever it takes to get there. It’s not easy, but it’s possible. What’s your choice? If you have a question, please send it to Caryn at hello@thebuglenewspaper. com.au Caryn Walsh is a Kiama Counsellor & Psychotherapist, Life and Executive Coach and welcomes your Relationship questions in this column.

Empowering your mind: strategies to preserve memory and age well. The number of Australians diagnosed with dementia is expected to soar to over 530,000 by 2025 and surpass 1.1 million by 2056 if no medical breakthrough occurs, according to projections from medical research organisation NeuRA As we grapple with this unsettling reality, preserving memory emerges as a crucial aspect of our daily lives, particularly as it tends to wane with age. Dr. Andrew Budson, a neurology lecturer at Harvard Medical School, says "There's more focus on this now because medical science has done a relatively good job of treating heart disease and cancer, but made fewer strides in addressing memory disorders such as dementia," and more people are worried about this than ever. A panel of experts from the St Vincent’s Brains Trust acknowl-

edges the absence of curative treatments for dementia but emphasises the potential benefits of targeted prevention strategies. Recent studies suggest that up to 40 per cent of dementia cases could be prevented or delayed, ushering in a ray of hope. Addressing the looming question of how to ward off memory decline, the World Health Organisation has developed guidelines for cognitive decline and dementia risk reduction. Recommendations include familiar elements like physical activity, stopping smoking, moderating alcohol consumption, and management of conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and cholesterol levels. Additionally, cognitive training, social engagement, and depression management are emphasised. Interestingly, maintaining a healthy weight and consuming a balanced diet are also integral components of this comprehensive approach.

Echoing these sentiments, global healthcare knowledge provider BMJ, most well-known for publishing The British Medical Journal, conducted a 10-year cohort study in January 2023 involving 29,072 participants aged 60 or older. The study highlighted the profound impact of a healthy lifestyle, encompassing positive behaviours such as abstaining from smoking and drinking, adopting a nutritious diet, engaging in regular physical exercise, and embracing cognitive activity and social interaction. The findings indicate that adherence to such a lifestyle is associated with a slower rate of memory decline. There are active dementia support groups in our area and don't forget the BrainTrack app! Dementia presents challenging times and the more tools and help we have the more we can work with the changes that are inevitable.
