Sharing her passion for more than three decades JoJo Spook ran for mayor in Robe at the 2011 local government elections because she’s passionate about giving back to the community. It’s the same reason she goes above and beyond creating her own works as an artist and spends much of her time teaching in schools or working hand in hand with communities on collaborative art projects - she feels compelled to give back and simply enjoys doing it.

JoJo Spook was never going to be anything but an artist. She was immersed in a creative world from an early age with two artistic parents and always encouraged to explore, experiment and create. With a father who worked in a Melbourne gallery and a mother who was a painter, art and creativity is in her DNA. Not surprising then, that she has been sculpting for three decades, and while sculpture has been the mainstay of her practice it is by no means the be all and end all of her work and the 2010 Penola Vinicultural Art Prize for one of her paintings is just one example of how JoJo Spook is so much more than a sculpture who favours limestone and metal as her materials of choice.

That being said she was front and centre during the period Mount Gambier hosted the National Limestone Sculpture Symposium on the grounds of the Old Gaol and her name is certainly synonymous with sculpture, although it is as strongly linked with the education sector and community art projects.

She runs the art program at Lucindale Area School and has been acknowledged for her work in

education through the 2008 Carclew Minister for Arts Award - she basically wrote an entire curriculum.

The Robe based artist, who is originally from the Mornington Peninsula, is determined to give children the three dimensional experience that comes with sculpting and believes she’s an exception to the rule but a good exception.

“You don’t get many artists that are art teachers,” JoJo said. “But what a great way to learn - from someone who actually has or is creating as a living.”

JoJo herself started her formal artistic education from a young age as well - attending night school at TAFE in Year 10 and so by the time she turned 17 she had a diploma and was accepted into Monash University’s Fine Arts program. That’s where her affinity with sculpture was developed and cemented.

“…what a great way to learn - from someone who actually has or is creating as a living….”

“I’ve always loved building things and putting stuff together,” JoJo said.

“I love working in 3D.” And she loves sharing her passion and her considerable talent with students. The community feel of Lucindale Area School is something she loves. “In a school of only 200, there is a real community focus - the community is the school and vice versa,” she said. “The support is

there.”

JoJo has been in the region for 15 years now, continuing to build a resume that sees her work nationally recognised.

Using satirical overtones of humour symbolic to her environment, JoJo has held more than 60 solo shows and been selected for various exhibitions and art prizes across the country, including the Southern Art Prize, Kelpie Art Prize and Balnaves Sculpture Prize.

When it comes to formal qualifications JoJo has completed a Bachelor of Fine Art, Bachelor of Craft, Diploma of Education, and a Master of Visual Arts, all from Monash University, in Melbourne and arguably, most proudly, received a National Inspirational Education Teachers Award for her contribution to arts education, having also completed many youth art projects that have been funded by councils and arts foundations in South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales.

She offers creative art workshops across South Australia at arts festivals and events and has developed her own program focusing on creating awareness about Ocean Rubbish that has been delivered to schools within the Limestone Coast.

In 2017 JoJo completed a residency with artist Sue Ryan founder of Ghostnets Australia, held in the Atherton tablelands of Queensland that included a 6-week tour in a motorhome, creating and painting her way to QLD and back travelling over 900 km on her own.

Most recently her career highlights include exhibiting at the National

“…I’ve always loved building things and putting stuff together…”

Heysen Sculpture Biennial and her recent solo show depicting her trip and use of environmental waste and Ghostnets.

And this year JoJo shows no signs of slowing down. She was selected as a finalist in the Southern Buoys Studio – Landscape Prize in Melbourne and is coordinating the 2020 Karatta Wines Southern Ocean Art Prize as well as another solo show, this time at Karatta Wines, exhibiting new works depicting aerial paintings of the Australian outback taken from a small aircraft.

Right now though, JoJo is one of the thousands of South Australian artists taking part in South Australian Living Artists Festival and her exhibition,

Retrospective, is a selection of works in various mediums symbolising life, travels, learning and passing on these experiences through her eyes as mini snapshots.

Restrospective opens September 5 at Hollick Estate and runs until November 29. Hollick Estate is at 11 Racecourse Road, Penola, and open seven days 11am–4pm. You can follow JoJo on facebook and Instagram.

Bring on 2022 They’ll be back. That is the promise from Lucindale Lions Club president Kevin Baker who has had to make the disappointing and frustrating announcement that not only did coronavirus claim the 2020 South East Field Days – the club’s annual major community fundraiser – it has claimed the 2021 event as well.

“It was a decision we did not want to have to make,” Kevin said. “But in the last six months a lot of people have had to make decisions they were not happy with. We couldn’t afford another hit like last year – our finances just could not take a hit like that again.”

The two day event, traditionally held in the middle of March, which was one of the first events to fall victim

to the pandemic, was already staring down losses of $100,000 so the hard call had to be made early, given preparations, site bookings and the like would be well underway if the 2021 event was set to go ahead.

“To go through that kind of financial loss again would have made it very hard to recover,” Kevin said.

Organisers were not prepared to entertain holding the rural showcase out of season but are as determined as ever to not only come up with some other fundraising options for 2021, but to plan a stunning return of the Field Days in 2022.

“We felt strongly about sticking to our March date that we have had for over 40 years,” Kevin said. “We are very determined to go ahead as soon

as COVID-19 allows.”

The good news for organisers is after being a majority older membership base for many years, the past tow or three years has seen an influx of younger members and they come with a renewed energy and fresh ideas.

“We will certainly come up with some ideas to still raise funds for the community even without the Field Days and I know the younger ones will be key in coming up with fundraising ideas,” Kevin said.

After more than four decades and more than two million dollars in fundraising for community projects, the South East Field Days are an iconic event, not just on the Limestone Coast calendar but as one of the more popular and patronised Field Days in South Australia.

With a town population of 400 and a district population around the 1000 mark, Lucindale is a community that packs a real punch and no event more so than the annual South East Field Days.

It is an event that brings the community together, it celebrates all things rural, showcasing everything from yard dogs to fashion, from machinery to scarecrows, and even more importantly raises much needed funds for a raft of community groups and projects.

The most significant contribution over the 40 years was $100,000 towards the Naracoorte Hospital CATSCAN. “That is something we are

exceptionally proud of,” South East Field Days secretary Lyn Crosby said.

The 40th anniversary Field Days were held in 2018 and as it always has, the event featured time honoured favourites as well as new and innovative exhibitors and special guests.

The SA Police Dixieland Band and Carlton Brewery draught horses have been mainstays of the event which in recent years has boasted around 600 exhibitors and 20,000 visitors.

The Lions Mobile Skin Cancer screening has become a feature of the event in recent years and given there were 90 cases referred for further medical assessment in each of the past couple of years, it has become a service well worth taking advantage of.

The evolution of the Field Days, has also necessitated the development of its home – Yakka Park – and that has seen the community roll up their collective sleeves to provide manpower and expertise to the many upgrades the facility has enjoyed over the years.

Funding secured for dog park

Dog lovers rejoice, a dedicated dog park is on the horizon for Portland.

The Glenelg Shire Council has successfully received funding under the Victorian Government’s $2.5 million Economic Stimulus Program for the formation for a dog off-leash park in Portland, the first of its kind for the city.

The project will be one of 17 new dog parks across the state, with other locations ranging from metropolitan areas such as Pakenham and Altona, to regional centres such as Ararat and Kilmore.

Glenelg Shire Mayor Cr Anita Rank said Portland was a fitting location for a new dog park, with the Glenelg Shire boasting some of the highest rates of pet ownership in the state.

“Glenelg Shire is the south-west capital of pet ownership, with about 40 per cent more animal registrations compared to our neighbouring municipalities. This announcement of an off-leash park will be welcome news for the many dog owners across our region with a dedicated site for our furry friends to run and play,” she said.

“Council is pleased to have secured this much needed funding, with the timing more relevant than ever as more pet owners at home looking for places to exercise their pets.

It is a fantastic investment for the region and will further add to shire’s liveability and family-friendly appeal.”

“Council will look to consult with the community in the coming months regarding the look and feel for the park and what elements should be included - we want to ensure that pet owners can have the chance to contribute to this exciting project.”

The Victorian Government will work with the Glenelg Shire to establish the dog park by late next year.

Training our future workforce When you get down to the nuts and bolts of it, skills training and apprenticeship programs are critical building blocks for the future workforce and last week was a celebration of that focus with National Skills Week.

Local businesses certainly know the value of training and apprenticeship programs and Whitty Engineering is a shining example of developing the future workforce.

“Whitty Engineering believe it is important to provide opportunities for local people to commence careers in boiler making, drafting, engineering and fitting and turning to provide employment for local young people and keep the region vibrant and growing,” Will Whitty said.

“Whitty Engineering uses the employment of apprentices as a way to address skill shortages within the engineering and manufacturing industry. An apprenticeship provides a structural training program over a four year period that enables the employee to complete modules identified by the employer that will increase their productivity and improve the quality of their workforce.”

While the uptake of apprenticeships is not as strong as local businesses would like, Whitty Engineering has taken matters into its own hands to attract more candidates to apprenticeship programs.

“Very small numbers of people are applying for apprenticeships,” Will said. “We believe many people

considering an apprenticeship are put off by the low wages at the start of an apprenticeship. This is a very short term view and fails to take into account the much larger picture.

Whitty Engineering has chosen to address this issue by paying wages considerably higher than the award to apprentices. The tradesperson emerges at the end of their apprenticeship with qualifications that are recognised nationally with the opportunity of a position that has real job security.

And as Whitty Engineering has developed and evolved, it has never lost sight of the importance of playing its part in training the next generation of workers for the industry.

“Whitty Engineering was established in 2008 and has had 24 people over the past 12 years commence apprenticeships,” Will said. “Of these people 14 have completed their apprenticeship and another 10 employees are working towards the completion of their apprenticeship.

Later this year a drafting trainee will be employed and further apprenticeships will be advertised for 2021.”

National Skills Week focuses on the critical role the vocational education and training (VET) sector has in the nation’s economic recovery from COVID-19.

As a part of the Federal Government’s economic response to COVID-19 a further $3.3billion has been committed to skills, including funding the creation of an additional

340,700 VET training places in areas of demand.

The Federal Government’s reforms and investments in the VET sector are looking to strongly assist economic recovery.

Minister for Employment, Skills, Small and Family Business, Senator the Hon Michaelia Cash, said National Skills Week is an opportunity to think about your career and consider where vocational education and training can take you.

“In response to the impacts of COVID-19, the Morrison Government is investing an additional $3.3 billion to give hundreds of thousands of Australians access to upskilling opportunities, rollout critical infection control training and keep apprentices and trainees connected to work,” Minister Cash said.

“Our JobTrainer Fund, is an investment of $500 million from

the Commonwealth Government, matched by the State and Territory Governments and providing around 340,700 additional free or low-cost training places.”

Member for Barker Tony Pasin MP said National Skills Week was a great opportunity for locals in Barker to think about your career and consider where vocational education and training can take you.

“…it’s encouraging to see this initiative inspiring students to create practical and entrepreneurial solutions…”

Trevor Evans (Assistant Minister for Waste Reduction and Environmental Management)

Plotting a future with

waste

Diverting waste from landfill – that is the essence of a Tenison Woods College program that is part of achieving the school’s lofty goal of being zero waste by 2025.

Project Recology is a community wide program that will focus on diverting waste from landfill in an enterprise model conceptualised and managed by youth. The program will involve young people working in partnership with community and national leaders to develop systems and products, replicable in other communities, to divert waste sent to landfill, fostering innovation and a circular economy. The program will process organic material, plastic, paper and e-waste on-site, converting items to raw material to

“…this goal aims to build a curriculum where waste education extends beyond the classroom, into home, wider community and future businesses and industries…” Tom Linnell (Tenison Woods College sustainability coordinator) then be manufactured into creative and valuable items with the help of specialised equipment.

Tenison Woods College sustainability coordinator Tom Linnell said Project Recology, which recently enjoyed a $20,000 injection from the Federal Government’s Communities Environment Program, is looking to change attitude and behaviour relating to waste systems and identify potential of business models driven by young people.

“In the process of these changes, we also plan to drastically reduce waste sent to landfill both by the college and local community,” Mr Linnell said.

The College site alone hopes to divert 30,000kg of green waste, 3000kg of plastic, 4000kg of paper waste and 1000kgs of e-waste per year.

It was in 2018 that the Tenison Woods College Board, guided by the College’s Sustainability Steering Committee, set the audacious goal of

being a zero waste school by 2025.

“This goal aims to build a curriculum where waste education extends beyond the classroom, into home, wider community and future businesses and industries,” Mr Linnell said.

And while we so often see environmental and sustainability issues as 21st century initiatives, nothing could be further from the truth as far as Mr Linnell is concerned.

“The college’s namesake, Fr Julian Tenison Woods was a renowned biologist, geologist, educator and priest,” Mr Linnell said. “His affinity with nature and all of God’s creation is a shining light in our sustainable and ecological journey.”

And that is why Project Recology is a whole school initiative, looking to drive the school’s reduction of waste to landfill to zero. Staff, students and parents all play an important role in this project, whether it be packing the best things into a child’s lunch box, making use of the college’s simple recycling stations, or bringing in clean recyclable plastics.

“We all have a part to play,” Mr Linnell said. “The theme of sustainability is growing in its presence in the formal learning of students at Tenison Woods College.

Although always present, teacher and students alike are beginning to connecting pieces of information to tangible actions within their local community. It lives in maths classes, who collect, sort, weigh and then visualise waste collected on beach clean ups. Texts in English regularly

have an environmental focus and all religious education classes involved five weeks each year investigating stewardship for creation and practical waste to make a difference in student’s communities. Tech students are installing solar panels on roofs at the college or visiting the local Vestas wind farms. We are lucky to have committed and pragmatic staff at the college, who understand that sustainability is not just another fancy word, it is a point of difference for our community.”

Education might be at the core of any college program but Project Recology is as much about behavioural change as anything.

“We want to build a bottom up approach to converting our community to take the easiest option to making an informed and sustainable choice,” Mr Linnell said. “We are already working with a number of local and national businesses to educate and action a greater understanding about sustainable waste management strategies and practices.”

A great example of this is Mondelez International on Pine Hall Ave who produce all of Australia’s Philadelphia Cream Cheese locally. Stan Wilkinson, Mondelez’s health, safety, security and environment manager has been working with Tenison Woods College throughout this year in an attempt to repurpose surplus Philadelphia plastic containers into new saleable items. This is one of many emerging relationships the college is building locally with industry and businesses.

And both Mr Pasin and Mr Evans were clearly impressed as they saw the government’s financial assistance in action.

“It’s great to see the Tenison Woods community bringing circular economy principles to life, where plastic bottle caps and similar products are seen as a value and an opportunity, not waste,” Mr Evans said. “Young people have an important role to play in the circular economy and it’s encouraging to see this initiative inspiring students to create practical and entrepreneurial solutions to benefit the environment and community.”

“The Limestone Coast is really kicking goals when it comes to waste reduction and it’s great to know that our Government can support projects like this,” Mr Pasin said.

“This Federal Funding program is an excellent way to encourage local, grassroots initiatives like this program at Tenison. Not only is it raising environmental awareness but also strengthening local community collaboration.“

The new Project Recology waste management centre also received a very generous donation of a custom fabricated plastic sheet press from local sustainable engineering firm, DMK Engineering Pty Ltd. This machine will soon be converting the recycled plastic material into bespoke one metre by one metre sheets, which will be put into action around the school in a number of different ways.

FROM OPP. PAGE The Federal Government grant has certainly ensured Project Recology has been able to continue to develop and evolve and Mr Linnell and the participating students were able to showcase this fledgling initiative to Member for Barker Tony Pasin and Assistant Minister for Waste Reduction and Environmental Management Trevor Evans.

“While the college has long had ambitions to drive sustainable change in its own community as well as the Limestone Coast region, we have always been limited by resourcing and funding,” Mr Linnell said.” The Communities Environment Grant, which has resulted into a $20,000 injection into both a physical space and the many initiative which it houses, will go a long way to ensure these projects, and many more are successful in years to come. The grant will also allow for the college to host presentations by local and national resource management experts, engaging the wider community in innovative waste management opportunities.

Hub contract a done deal A major step in the construction of Mount Gambier’s Community and Recreation Hub has been taken with the awarding of the building contract to South Australian based BADGE Constructions. Having a builder allocated to the historic project means the facility is finally becoming a reality for this community, with some areas of the project set to be delivered

by March 2022 with the entire project looking at a May 2022 opening date.

Announcing the critical decision, City of Mount Gambier Mayor Lynette Martin OAM and CEO Andrew Meddle both acknowledged the patience of the community.

“We acknowledge it’s been a long ride,” Mayor Martin said. “We know the community is eager to hear about the project. It is the largest infrastructure project council has ever undertaken.”

Changes in building codes, an emphasis on sustainability and the change in risk profile courtesy of COVID restrictions have all impacted on getting the project to this exciting stage where significant progress in the construction process looms in mere weeks.

“Mount Gambier deserves this, it is going to be a game changer for our city and after 30 years of our community asking for a facility of this type, now is the right time to invest in this project and finally get it started,” Mayor Martin said.

The contract value sits at $57.3million with estimates suggesting $22.9million will be injected back into the local economy throughout the construction phase.

“We anticipate multiple runs through our local economy of that $22.9million at a time when our economy has never needed it more,” Mr Meddle said.

The contract guarantees 40 percent of the project will engage local tradies and suppliers, with some of the elements having to be undertaken by specialists not accessible in Mount Gambier.

“But they (the specialists) will stay in our hotels and eat in our pubs and restaurants so there will be recycling of that money with our local businesses,” Mr Meddle said. “From an economic perspective this (the hub project) is an absolute winner in our economy.”

“To create this economic stimulus for our community is what the Federals and State Governments are calling on Local Governments to do to lead the recovery from COVID-19,” Mayor Martin said.

BADGE Constructions are a national award winning builder that are no strangers to Mount Gambier having been responsible for the UniSA, Resthaven and Mount Gambier Prison

projects over the journey and they will take possession of the Margaret Street site this week.

“It is a unique build that requires a company with suitable experience with complicated infrastructure,” Mr Meddle said.

“It goes without saying that we are thrilled to be awarded this project,” BADGE managing director Jim Whiting said. “Delivering important regional infrastructure projects gives us real opportunity to contribute to the local economy during the course, and provide long-lasting community impact with a quality facility.”

The project has secured an unprecedented level of financial support with the Federal Government chipping in $15million and the South Australian Government handing over $10million. The District Council of Grant has also injected $350,000, with the City of Mount Gambier funding the $31.95million remaining.

“...from an economic perspective this (the hub project) is an absolute winner in our economy...”

City of Mount Gambier CEO Andrew Meddle “When this project is finished council will have assets of $300million and a debt level of about 10 percent,” Mayor Martin said.

“Council is in a very good financial position to withstand the additional cost and service the loan, particularly with access to very low interest rates, and we remain committed to not increasing rates beyond the 4.5% outlined in the Long Term Financial Plan,” Mr Meddle said.

The decisions to invest heavily in sustainability measures looms large over the expected 50 year lifespan of the facility with the installation of solar power capacity set to be cost neutral within seven years.

The new costings also include the refurbishment of the 50m outdoor pool.

And while the Community and Recreation Hub is a facility for the Mount Gambier community, with a

“...Mount Gambier deserves this, it is going to be a game changer for our city...”

City of Mount Gambier Mayor Lynette Martin OAM

focus on wellbeing, it also looms as an asset that will attract and retain families and skilled professionals to the region.

“...delivering important regional infrastructure projects gives us real opportunity to contribute to the local economy...”

Jim Whiting (BADGE Constructions managing director Both the Mayor and CEO were keen to reiterate that the facility is not just about sport but also live performances, expos, conferences, exhibitions and a range of community activities.

Timber and limestone, raw materials synonymous with this region, will feature prominently in the building design, that has opted for a classic colour palette designed to stand the test of time.

“The use of timber is what will give the building its heart and soul, give it it’s warmth, give it a lovely tactile sense,” Mr Meddle said.

Celebrating an icon The countdown is on to the end of an era in Australian motoring with the demise of Holden and it has seen a rise in nostalgia around the iconic brand.

Earlier this month OGR played their part in the celebration of Holden’s Australian story by hosting a Suns Out, Holdens Out event that saw Holden lovers from across the region converge on the Penola Road dealership to create a lasting memory.

The day was instigated by South East Street Machines members Gary and Judith Marshall who visited the Penola Road dealership on August 2 looking for a photo with the Holden signs, which as of next month will have been removed.

That requested inspired dealership principal Bryce Roberts to think even bigger, suggesting the Sun’s Out, Holdens Out concept and the rest, as they say, is history.

Early predictions, incorporating members from the South East Street Machines and other Holden focussed car clubs in the region, sat at around 100 cars and their owners getting involved but registrations for the day saw that number well and truly eclipsed as Holden afficionados primed their vehicles for the photoshoot and the chance to be a part of history.

Compassion & support the key A Mount Gambier Community Hospice at Home service is to be established courtesy of a South Australian Government Palliative Care grant of almost $150,000.

The 12 month project will see the establishment of a community notfor-profit Hospice at Home service in Mount Gambier, that will provide people who are approaching end of life with the option of holistic, compassionate family centred care in their own home through the use of trained volunteers.

The goal is to provide 24 hour/7 days a week care and support, provided by trained volunteers, in collaboration with local GPs, palliative care team members and allied support services.

A project committee has been formed to deliver the project and includes chair Roslyn Taylor, deputy chair Maureen Klintberg, Kathryn Edwards, Roslyn Taylor, Maree Thompson, Liz Wheeler, Sarah Boyd, John Williamson, Dr Richard Try and Peter Wilson.

The successful application for the SA Government Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program was made possible by a collaborative effort between the Mount Gambier Private Hospital (MGPH) and the Mount Gambier &

District’s Health Advisory Council MG&DHAC. The MGPH Board of Directors and CEO Sandi Elliot, will oversee the community project until a not-forprofit Board of Management is established.

“The need for Hospice and an extension of the current local Palliative care to provide support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week has been expressed for sometime within the community, and these issues were highlighted at the Community Palliative Care Forum held in Mount Gambier last year by the MG&DHAC,” Hospice At Home project committee spokesperson Maureen Klintberg said.

Currently Country Health Connect Palliative Care nurses offer care Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and there are no palliative care volunteers.

Hospice care is most often offered when a person is expected to live six months or less if the illness runs its natural course. The person centred care provided can bring together a team of people with special skills – among them nurses, doctors, counsellors, spiritual workers and trained volunteers to deliver care

based on the holistic, individual needs and preferences of the dying person, respecting their preferences and dignity.

The Mount Gambier Hospice at Home model will be based on the successful Warrnambool & District Community Hospice (WDH) which has been fully operational since 2016 and offers hospice care in the home provided by a team of some 70 volunteers.

“I was inspired after meeting with Dr Fairbank and the WDH management team earlier this year and greatly appreciates the opportunity provided by the SA Government Palliative Care 2020 Grants Program to establish a Hospice at Home service in Mount Gambier,” Ms Klintberg said.

With research showing that 70% of terminally ill people would prefer to spend their end of life days at home, there is understanding that many die in hospital for social reasons and not medical.

The care and support provided by the Mount Gambier Hospice at Home will be free of charge and accessible to all community members who wish to remain in their surroundings and may have been unable to do so due to lack of family or personal support.

Offering compassionate care and practical support that meets the needs of those who are approaching end of life as well as the needs of their family and friends, the planned hospice service aims to strengthen the ability of families to care for their loved ones at home. It will also potentially prevent unnecessary hospitalisations during the last 6 months of life.

“The project committee will be guided by the expertise of the Warrnambool Hospice management, including Dr Eric Fairbank AM who spent 13 years as a palliative-care physician in Warrnambool,” Ms Klintberg said. “It is hoped that we can offer our community the

opportunity to hear from Dr Fairbank sometime in the coming months, so that they can learn first-hand about the successful outcomes of Warrnambool Community Hospice.”

Aiming to fill identified gaps in existing services, the community Hospice at Home care service plans to provide 24 hour care over four shifts, including one overnight, with evening respite offered so that relatives, care givers or friends may gain respite and sleep.

The care provided will be made possible by recruiting local volunteers who will undertake palliative care training that is guided by state palliative care services.

No specific skills are required to become a trained palliative care volunteer, just a desire to support and help those in need. Volunteers do not offer medical care or advice, instead they focus on providing practical assistance to the dying person, family and carer.

A hospice manager will be appointed to manage and coordinate the services provided.

A Board of Management is also currently being established to ensure that there is ongoing management of the service and planning of future developments in all aspects of end of life care, support and education for the benefit of the local community.

“We would be delighted to hear from

members of the community who are interested in supporting this valuable project by becoming a volunteer or board member,” Hospice At Home project committee chair Roslyn Taylor said.

Expressions of interest can be directed to the Chairperson via email at mountgambierhospiceathome@ gmail.com or by contacting deputy chair Maureen Klintberg on 0438 010 780.

“We are also seeking a premise within the city that will be used to provide space for management, training of volunteers and use by caregivers, families and identified partners supporting the provision of end of life care so if anyone knows of a suitable property we would be keen to hear from them,” Ms Taylor said.

Initially the service will focus on the population within Mount Gambier and surrounding districts, with its ongoing viability dependent upon both community and government funding.

It is hoped to further expand the service across the Limestone Coast Local Health Network with future planning and development.

This community project is supported by the Mount Gambier Private Hospital.

Taking the classroom outside Given a choice between sitting at a desk and reading about our natural world or getting out amongst and getting your hands dirty, most students will not only choose to head into the great outdoors but they will also learn and retain the information having seen it firsthand.

Mt Burr Primary School Year 5, 6 and 7 students have just enjoyed such an outdoor classroom, working on a collaborative project with Millicent High School, Mt Burr Primary, Beachport Primary, Rendlesham Primary and Kangaroo Inn Area School at Mt Burr Swamp and Southend.

Mt Burr primary teacher Lisa Scott coordinated the project, tapping into the expertise of Landscape SA Limestone Coast’s environmental education officers to shine a light on the Mt Burr Swamp ecosystem.

“The students have learnt about the importance aquatic macroinvertebrates play in the food web,” Ms Scott said. “They also conducted water tests in the high school science labs to prove their findings are correct.”

Students travelled to the swamp and were assisted by Landscape SA Limestone Coast environmental education officer Damen Bickley to identify and classify aquatic macroinvertebrates to establish if the water was healthy.

While at the swamp, students also tested the pH of the soil, participated in a soil test to identify the type of soil at the swamp and the impact that would have on the plants required to revegetate part of the area that has been cleared by forestry operation OneFortyOne. They also collected soil samples to complete an experiment to identify the percentage of any clay and silt in the soil.

And the project is far from over, with the learning set to continue.

“Students have identified inquiry lines that they will further investigate

through research, engineering thinking, scientific reasoning and predictions of future needs at the site,” Ms Scott said.

The students will then present their research at a gallery exhibition at Millicent High School on October 21.

As part of the Mt Burr project, students from both sites learnt about plant health and the impact different variables have on plant growth. Groups of students entered the 2020 Plant Health DAF Hermitage Research Facility Schools Plant Science Competition. A total of 71 science and art entries from 21 schools throughout Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and the Northern Territory were submitted for judging with students required to submit a mind map and a plant health journal and experiment.

Mt Burr Primary Year 6/7 students Blake Brant, Kaylei Alcock (Year 7) and Kaylah Wilson, Aleesha SayerRenshaw and Jett Williams (Year 6) were part of the team who won third prize in the Year 3-7 team competition. Millicent High School Year 8 students Charli Kaigg, Jasmine Holland and Lilly Ryan (Team 1) as well as Christopher Verrall, Jonathan Bennier and Jacob Tully (Team 2) received highly commended awards for their entries.

The Southend project had a focus on coastal erosion.

Landscape SA environmental education officer Vanessa Freebairn said collaborative projects between schools and industry or organisations such as Landscape SA Limestone

Boat ramp works on track

Coast are a great way to make learning real for students.

“They can gain new skills and knowledge that relate to a real life project,” Vanessa said. “Students have the opportunity to meet staff that are employed in the environmental field in the region which increases their understanding of potential career paths. It is nice to get students out of the classroom and connecting with their local environment in a meaningful way that is led by their interests. Students become more engaged with their learning when they are exploring new places and hearing from new people. Engagement also increases if they have ownership over the project and choose what they would like to be learning.”

Vanessa said the value of students learning from experts in their field and getting out to immerse themselves in the natural environment could not be underestimated.

“To fully appreciate an environmental issue you need to feel a part of it, be there on the ground observing all of the influencing factors, gathering data,” Vanessa said. “When all of your senses are fully engaged you are gaining a better quality of learning. Looking at pictures on a computer screen just does not cut it.”

The education officer cited the example of learning about coastal erosion.

“It makes more sense if you are actually at the coast feeling the strength and direction of the wind, observing the vegetation growth that has been affected by that prevailing wind and comparing the sheltered side of the coast to the exposed side,” Vanessa said.

A case in point was the opportunity availed of the students to speak with senior ranger Glenn Jackway (pictured left) who has decades of experience and has lived in that local area most of his life observing changes.

Dredging of the Beachport Boat Ramp is on track for commencement in midSeptember thanks to some solid negotiating to allow the contractors to visit the seaside twon. Wattle Range Council has been working hard with the District Council of Robe to get approval for the Geelong-based dredging contractors, Victorian Marine Services, to enter South Australia and they have now arrived in Robe and are expected to be in Beachport in a couple of weeks as scheduled.

Reading program receives business sponsorship boost United Way Glenelg is thrilled to be the recipient of a grant from Pacific Hydro to further fund books for children living in the Glenelg Shire community.

Funding will support local children to receive books to their mailbox each month through United Way Glenelg’s Dolly Parton Imagination Library.

Due to its immense popularity, the early literacy initiative is oversubscribed, meaning children are placed on a waiting list until funding is available.

United Way Glenelg’s executive officer Nicole Carr welcomed the grant saying it will encourage parents and caregivers to read to their children with guaranteed access to books.

“The best way to ensure a healthy future is to raise well-educated children, and the best way to ensure children are educated is to promote literacy from a young age,” Ms Carr said, “We are grateful to Pacific Hydro for supporting our work and funding the Imagination Library” Pacific Hydro’s senior project leader community investment and communications Bernadette Holland, said Pacific Hydro was thrilled to be able to support United Way Glenelg and the Dolly Parton Imagination Library.

“Improving literacy skills will provide lasting benefits for the children and the wider community for years to come,” Ms Holland said.

“Providing books to children in their home will increase the opportunities for caregivers to read aloud, thereby improving literacy skills and school readiness.

“Partnering with United Way Glenelg will give children in the

Glenelg Shire community every possible opportunity to grow and develop” Parents of children involved in the program have also expressed their gratitude to Pacific Hydro for their further funding of the project.

“I just want to take a moment to send this email to thank United Way Glenelg and Pacific Hydro for their sponsorship and paying for all the other expenses that I’m sure comes with it,” a parent spokesperson said.

“Getting a book once a month means so much to our family. I’m not sure who’s more excited to get the new books my daughter, my wife or myself.

“Thank you for helping provide the special moments when we will sit down and read our new books together” If you would like to contribute to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library please contact Nicole Carr on 0410 513 305 or mail@unitedwayglenelg. com.au Above - Wren Heeley-Spry, aged 3 months and his mother Shae Spry will be one of the families to receive books in the mail courtesy of Pacific Hydro funding.

For the first time, delivery of library resources will be available for members. Drop-off of items will be available to those living in Portland and immediate surrounding areas, with Australia Post deliveries available for all other residents across the Shire.

The Library2Go Outreach mobile library service will also be reinstated, ensuring regular access for community members in rural areas such as Dartmoor, Merino and Digby,

resuming service as per the regular three weekly basis.

“Libraries play such a vital role in supporting our community and it is fantastic to be back providing resources to our many loyal members,” said library and information services manager Yvette Parker.

“Whilst Stage 3 Restrictions are in place, the Click and Collect service will allow members to access resources for work, study, their family or for their own enjoyment, whilst safety remains paramount.

“To take part in the service, simply place a hold through our online catalogue.

“If you prefer you can call us directly to place a hold an item or ask us for a recommendation.

“Library staff will then make contact to organise a mutually convenient time for you to collect your items.

Sharpen up...

I’ve had one of those weeks where I seem to be encountering every stupid person in the surrounding areas. I suspect that with the whole Covid situation, they’ve had to shut down all the circuses (or is it circi?) and so all the freaks are back living in our communities.

The worst thing with these encounters has been the feeling that all of these stupid people don’t realise they’re stupid. They think they’re fine.

In fact in many cases, they don’t simply think they’re average or competent, but it’s been clear that they think they’re really quite intelligent. Many I would describe as having delusions of adequacy.

People who don’t have an accurate understanding of their own abilities have always puzzled me. I’m a pretty self aware person and I think I have a pretty solid understanding of

my limitations. In fact, “a man’s got to know his limitations” is a motto that I live by. I’ve got a good idea of what I’m good at and aim to not extend myself past these abilities. I know what I’m not good at and work hard to work around these issues.

But as I’ve encountered stupid people this week, I’ve been pondering the question, not being sharp enough to know you’re not that sharp; is that a blessing or a curse?

I’ve sometimes thought, would it actually be better to be stupid but oblivious to the fact. With a little analysis I suspect there would be some problems with that. If I didn’t realise I was a buffoon, I may have ambitions of achieving something with my life.

As I received the knockbacks and failures that reflect my lack of intelligence and ability, I may be upset thinking that I’m being unfairly treated. I wouldn’t be able to comprehend that the issue is actually my lack of ability.That would have to be frustrating.

If I was stupid and realised I was stupid, I would have the ability to set reasonable goals that reflected my lack of competency. I may actually be able to make the decision that I’m not very smart and so trying to achieve something with my life or get a job is a waste of time.

In this way I could simply accept my limitations and avoid a lifetime of disappointment. This seems like a pretty good place to be.

Have a look at Donald Trump and test out my theories.

Clearly President Trump has no

September 2 understanding that he is an imbecile.

He has a massively inflated opinion of his abilities and value as a human being in general. Somehow he did manage to achieve a success despite his limited capabilities (this probably reflects the fact that the majority of American voters don’t understand that they’re not that sharp and probably shouldn’t have voted).

In the longer term though his stupidity has led to significant failure as a leader. Unfortunately he doesn’t understand that he’s simply not that smart, so seems to think that everyone else has a problem.

He simply won’t understand if he doesn’t get revoted in as president, although let’s say it again that the American people who have a massively over-inflated understanding of their own value, are far too likely to vote him in again.

It’s not just the difficulty it causes the stupid person either that can be negative and frustrating. You may have seen the meme that says, “when you’re dead you don’t know

you’re dead. It is difficult only for others.

It’s the same when you’re stupid.”

I think we all share that pain, although if you don’t share that pain, it may well be that you’re the stupid person in your social group.

To quickly finish my analysis of this issue, consider an intelligent person who doesn’t realise they’re intelligent. Not a big problem. This sort of person will quite contentedly do whatever they feel like doing, without overstepping their strong abilities.

An intelligent person who realises how intelligent they are. Could be a bit of a problem. No problem doing what they want with their life and reaching their potential, but also cocky and arrogant.

Inadvertently will cause problems to themselves with no positive, useful relationships, and probably won’t be able to comprehend it emotionally.

HAIR CARE MADE EASY Hair is at its most vulnerable when it is wet so gently use a comb to detangle after shampooing and use your styling tools on the lowest setting possible to get the job done.

LABELLING WITH A DIFFERENCE Apply chalkboard paint to one side of a metal container to create a writing surface. When you change the contents of the box/container just wipe off the chalk and rewrite the label. Chalkboard paint can be applied to most non-porous surfaces.

Matt McCallum was pivotal. Ruckman Kurt Rodis rounded out what has been a break out season for him, while John Forster won plenty of the ball in what has been another typically consistent season from the Bulldog.

LOCAL SPORT Final quarter frenzy earns Demons a home ground grand final In the end, it was a six goal final quart5er from South Gambier, while also keeping Kalangadoo goalless that saw the Western Border Demons advance to the inaugural Limestone Coast Football League grand final on their home turf this weekend.

While the breeze was negligible, the southern end of the ground proved to be the scoring end at the Vansittart Park semi final with 16 of the 19 goals scored at that end and it was the end, where South piled on their six goals, having only kicked five for the previous three quarters, in a final quarter frenzy led by old heads and a couple of young guns.

Playing under duress with a hamstring strain skipper Brett O’Neil willed himself to some critical contests in the frenetic final term, while coach Bronson Saffin also won some hard balls when toughness around the contest was needed.

Port MacDonnell recruit Mark Smith, who was best for the Demons, showed great composure in the final quarter when cool heads were required.

Teenager Oscar Adams started in the ruck in the final term and his ability to outleap his opponents and hit the ball to clear space, away from the congestion, was pivotal in South’s ability to move the ball forward quickly, giving forwards Brayden Kain, Brodie Foster and Kym Eagleson some good one on one contests and they took full toll.

Twenty points down at three quarter time, South looked tired and with Jack Casey looming large in the forward fifty and Mitch Lowe having proven himself to be one of the best intercept possession players in the competition, it looked a steep mountain to climb for the Demons.

Importantly a quick centre clearance saw the Demons inside their forward fifty and Glencoe recruit Patrick Mitchell was all class as he read the ball off hands and snapped truly, South’s second goal of the term coming in quick succession before a courageous mark from Smith as Kalangadoo was pressing hard inside fifty set up a chain of events that saw Brock

Keding win a clearance ball and spot up Kain on the lead and the margin for the Magpies had quickly evaporated to just one point.

Another quick major to Kain, who suddenly found space for his trademark leading game, saw South his the front when the youngest player on the field – Jake Walker – laid a critical tackle in the middle of the ground to win a holding the ball free, spotting up Foster and suddenly it was the Demons who looked unstoppable.

Walker, whose composure belied his years, also won a couple of critical balls in defence and used the ball with precision in only his third game of senior football.

Lowe was doing everything he could to stem the flow and give his side a chance to bridge the gap but the Magpies just couldn’t get their hands on the ball.

Andrew Stone, who was prominent all day, continued to fund the football but the key movers and shakers from the opening three quarters , including Sam McManus and Brad Bryant, just couldn’t find the same space and connection as they had in the opening three quarters of the contest.

Jack Casey was best for the Kalangadoo with his four goal haul, including one impressive

mark in the goal square that would have to be mark of the season, if such an award existed.

Casey was just too big and too strong for the Demons defenders when he was isolated one on one.

Smith was the standout for the Demons, while Kaleb Bowd’s ability to win the hard ball and Kyle Jones pace and quality ball use were pivotal, especially in the final quarter, while Todd Reid, who at times found himself one on one with Casey, still managed some timely intercept marks and was also critical when the ball hit the deck.

In the end, South recorded a three goal victory and the right to take on Mundulla, who survived a nailbiter against East Gambier, to advance to the interim league decider with a one point win.

The Western Border Bulldogs led by one late in the final term but Mundulla was in front when the siren sounded.

It was the usual suspects for the moots with James Hinge, Jake McGrice and Tim McIntyre building on what has been a superb last month for all three players, while Reagan Tink returned to form with three goals and plenty of possessions.

East was best served by Keenan Jacobs, while the work rate and marking power of

LOCAL Weatherill takes out winter series SPORT CAVE TRAIL PITTS LANE SECTION READY FOR ACTION

A section of the Caves Trail along Naracoorte’s Pitts Lane has been completed.

This section has been created within the width of the old vehicle track. The Caves Trail project is an initiative that council believes will be used by locals as well as visitors, with enthusiasm for the project shown by regular bike riders, walkers and families seeking opportunities for family activities. The trail heads through an attractive landscape and it is hoped that will encourage use and improve community health, wellbeing and fitness.

Earlier this month the final race of the Mount Gambier Cycling Club’s Winter Series was run with 12 riders competing in a 25km out and back course along Caves Road. The three limit riders were given an eight minute start to another group of three, with a further group starting one minute later. The final group of three left 12 minutes after the front-runners.

By the turn around point, the gap had narrowed considerably, with the limit riders only three minutes in front of the middle group, which had joined together, and the scratch riders closing only two minutes further behind. Within the final 4km of the race, and battling a head wind, the middle group caught up to the front riders, with the scratch riders closing fast. At the line it was Tess Wight, fresh off her victory, at the State Road Titles the previous week, who took the win, closely followed by Gerard Coote and Bruce McLaughlin. Fourth place, and fastest time, went to the overall Winter Series Champion Colin Weatherill. In the Juniors, a 10km team race was held with Molly Opperman and Eddie Buckland working together to hold off Freya MIller and Elmer Buckland with a 2:30 head start. Molly and Eddie were caught just after the halfway point, as Elmer and Freya rode away to collect the victory. The Mt Gambier Cycling Club will now take a week off from racing, and return on Sunday, September 6, for the Spring Series.

August results for 2-4-2 bowls series Millicent Bowls Club is a hive of activity at the moment with the regaulr Thursday 2-4-2 competition up and running. In wet conditions on August 20, 25 players too k to the greens to play the 25 ends of 2-4-2.

The club was pleased to welcome Fred and Chris Godley, from Prospect-Broadview, who travelled from Robe for the day. First place, with a score of 35+11, was the team of Barry Smith and Derk Pietersma, while runners up for the day was the visiting bowler Fred Godley, who teamed with Peter Varcoe, for a score of 33+11.

Other winning rinks were David Botting, Wayne Burris 33+10; Derek Bowering, David Reichelt 32+6; Eddie Hann, Mary Clifford 31+16 and Robert Radley, Terry Barnes 28+3.

Please contact Derek Bowering if your phone number has changed or you wish to add a phone number in the bowls book for this year as the book is nearly ready to be printed.

The practice for open pennants for September 19 has now been cancelled as it is the day before the Scudds/Earl Shield day. Please note this in your diary.

On August 27, the weather again played a role, looking quite good when the game started with 44 players registering to play but after six ends things started to change.

By the 12th end bowls were being blown off their bias or even making them look as though they were on the wrong bias and by the 18th end the rain was tumbling down and because of this the Tournament Committee called the game off and calculated the scores after the 16th end.

The results for the day saw the team of Glen Schapel and Robert Radley taking home $44 each winning the day with a score of 32+36.

SOUTH EAST VETERANS GOLF

Runners up, with a score of 32+15, was the team of Robert Atkinson and Mary Campbell.

Sixty players visited Blue Lake Golf Club and a surprise winner in first division was Tony Steen, who excitedly announced his win by pocketing the cheque and claiming he is now a pro golfer. His peers weren’t so impressed saying that on his home course, he should have done better than a lazy 37 points. Millicent pair Ron Hately and Terry Chant were next best with 36. The second division scored higher, 40 points from Gerry Holmes, of Naracoorte, winning his second consecutive cheque, followed by another Millicent pair, Glen Tilley, on 40, and Bobby Childs, on 34. The ball rundown went to 28 and the NTPs to Mike Atwell and Tim McLean. The Ross Orchard went to Mike Lyons and Leigh MacCracken. The next outing is at Bordertown on September 7, followed by Naracoorte on September 21.

LOCAL SPORT Panthers go on scoring spree

MG PLASTERERS SECBL MEN Panthers had a great response to their loss the previous week taking down the second place side Roos by 35 points. The Panthers ball movement and perimeter play was too much for the Roos to handle, Kyle Tipene could not be contained on his way to 43 points.

Panthers 115 (K Tipene 43, J Walker 28, O Thompson 24) d Roos 85 (M Makoi 24, B Jolley 17, M Sutton 12)

Cats have really found their form with the return of Josh Murphy to the side and used a well balanced attack to keep the scoreboard ticking over with four players reaching double figures. Matt Black and Josh Berry continue to put points on the board for their Bulldogs side however it was not enough to stay in touch with the Cats in this contest.

Cats 99 (J Murphy 22, K Bradley 17, N Joy 17) d Bulldogs Red 55 (M Black 21, J Berry 20) MG PLASTERERS SECBL WOMEN Predictably this game was a tight contest with both teams struggling to gain real control of the game. It was a two point field goal by Alyssa Duncan right at the end of the third quarter that gave the Panthers the momentum they needed going in to the fourth as they managed to stretch the lead out to nine points. The Bulldogs Roos managed to threaten however could not find enough fire power to get over the hard working Panthers side.

Panthers 47 (A Duncan 13, J Jones 11, N Facey 10) d Bulldogs/Roos 41 (O Wormald 11, C Hunter 10) Both Millicent sides went head to head in this contest. While Cats challenged throughout this game Saints never really relinquished control.

Behind 29 points from Olivia Fuller and the leadership of Jasmin Howe, Saints were able to withstand runs from Cats. Emily Winter continued her good form with 23 points and was well supported by sister Georgia with 16.

New era for harness racing

Simon Phillips has taken the reins of the Mount Gambier Harness Racing Club in what looms as one of the most challenging seasons on record for the Greenwald Paceway based club but he is up for the challenge and still has outgoing club president Mick Lamond by his side in the vice president role.

“Work commitments were making it hard to me to give the time I needed,” Mick said. “But I am happy to keep helping and doing what I can for the club.”

The duo has in fact swapped roles and Simon has already had a front row seat to what the top job entails.

“There were times last season where I had to do things for Mick when he was too busy so I certainly know what I am getting myself into,” Simon said.

As with many sporting and community groups in this region, the Mount Gambier Harness Racing Club has always enjoyed cross border support and drivers from this region also have been able to thrive given they could head to meetings in Stawell, Hamilton and Terang, where the prize purse is richer, in between their home track meets.

Having the 90 minute to two hour trips to the lucrative Victorian meetings taken away from local trainers with only the five hour-plus trip to Adelaide’s Globe Derby Park on offer, club officials were desperate to come up with a plan.

And they have. The local club and Harness Racing SA have worked in close conjunction to some up with a solution to retain a viable harness racing scene in Mount Gambier and club officials are excited about the opportunity a new Tuesday night racing schedule will provide the 23 locally based trainers.

Initially the Tuesday night meetings, which will have a start time of 5.30-6pm, will see four races from Mount Gambier and four from Port Pirie, with each location running their races back to back to keep crowds interested.

“Basically Tuesday nights are all ours, so we can do with them what we want,” Simon said.

“As horse numbers increase for meetings we can increase the number of races we host so we are really looking forward to it.”

Not being able to access the usual Victorian contingent for Greenwald Paceway meetings loses the club between 20 and 25 horses a

meeting.

The club is now working on a COVID management plan to keep trainers, owners and drivers separate from what they hope will be the usual, family friendly crowd. The Pick Avenue access road will be for the drivers and trainers and the Jubilee Highway entry point will service the crowd.

“The trainers and drivers will have access to the stables and that whole area and then we will make sure the crowd has the usual access to the canteen bar and betting facilities,” Simon said.

And those betting facilities are critical – it is the majority source of the sport’s income.

The cub’s premier event, the Pacing Gold Cup, is yet to be scheduled with the club set to push for that to be a Saturday night event as per previous years, with some hope still being held out for open borders and the usual contingent of Victorian trainers and drivers looking to challenge for the club’s top prize.

It could be argued Simon Phillips has been training for the role of Mount Gambier Harness racing Club president his whole life, having been going to harness racing meetings since he was three months old.

His family has a strong history with the sport, with his father and uncles all hands on with horses, and Simon’s passion for the sport has only grown with age, having become an owner in the past 10 years, really ramping up his interest in the past five years.

“I love the sport, love the horses, love the industry and I always enjoy coming to the trots,” Simon, who has been a stable hand right through to his status now as an owner, said.

And the outgoing president Mick Lamond believes the attraction of the sport is simple.

“It is family orientated racing,” Mick said.

“It really is more of a family outing than the gallops.”

The first race meeting of the season is expected to be confirmed for mid-October.
