“ 100 years ago...
The Amamoor primary school opened in 1921. In 1924 the post office directory recorded 15 farmer/selectors, 10 dairy farmers, nine fruit growers, five timbergetter/teamsters, a sawmiller and a storekeeper at Amamoor. Banana growing succumbed to rust thrip disease, and pineapples took over. By 1949 the number of fruitgrowers had quadrupled, and the pineapple industry prolonged the life of the railway. The Amamoor State Forest also supplied regular consignments of timber to be railed to Gympie. If you would like to be involved with the planning of the Amamoor State School Centenary September celebrations or would like more information, or have photos or memorabilia please contact Diane Cleary 0468 494 029.

HISTORICAL SOCIETY CELEBRATES 40 I
40 YEARS ON THE ONE SITE
n 1950 the Kenilworth Centenary Celebration Committee was formed with the aim of celebrating the township’s centenary that year in a fitting manner. Part of the project was the publication of the book “Hinka Booma to Kenilworth”. (Nambour Chronicle 21.1.1969 page 13). The report continued “The members of this committee have now decided to enlarge the original membership and form a society to be called the Kenilworth Historical Society. The new society will take over all funds, books and chattels belonging to the centenary committee and its objects will be to investigate all avenues of Kenilworth and district history. The membership fee is expected to be 20 cents a year.” A decade later it was reported (Nambour Chronicle 16.8.1979, page 42) that “an agreement reached between the Maroochy Shire Council and Kenilworth Historical Society will culminate later this year in the opening of a fascinating new tourist attraction at Kenilworth. The council has leased almost two ha of land next to the water reservoir at the end of Alexandra Street in Kenilworth to enable the society to set up a full-scale historical display for the district. A former Little Yabba forestry barracks building has already been brought to the site to house the main display and an old road gang living quarters building will be used to show off heavy machinery.” Cr A.H. Sims whose brother Mr Alf Sims is working on much of the interior renovation of the old buildings said the hilltop site with its commanding views over the township was ideal for the historical society’s new home. For years the society has had irreplaceable historical items on display under the public hall – and there has always been concern they would be damaged by flood waters, he said. This new site not only does away with that worry, it will also enable Kenilworth to have an historical display to be proud of. And it is sure to be popular with tourists. “The Kenilworth Historical Society has been active for 10 years and at present has 15 members. President is Mrs Adah Slack and secretary is Mr Les Moreland. Mr Alf Sims said the official opening of the new headquarters had been tentatively set down for March next year – although displays were expected to open to the public before the end of this year. It was Mr Alf Sims who bought and donated the forestry barracks building for the historical society – even meeting the removal costs himself.” It was not until 24 January, 1981 that the Museum buildings were officially opened – as reported in the Nambour Chronicle (29.1.1981, page 3) – One hundred and fifty people helped the Kenilworth and District Historical Society celebrate the opening of its historical museum on Saturday. It is the first in the Maroochy Shire to be run on a voluntary basis. The museum was opened by one of the town’s long-time residents and state school principal Harry Welch. A cedar plaque, carved by former Kenilworth resident Ina Mallett, was unveiled by Sunshine Coast historian and conservationalist Stan Tutt. Visitors to the opening enjoyed an old time picnic lunch of damper and syrup provided by the historical society before a tour of the museum.” This 40th year milestone will be celebrated with a function at the Museum in Alexandra Street on Wednesday 24 February 2021, commencing at 10am – with the official launch of the re-edited “Hinka Booma to Kenilworth 1950-1960”. All are most welcome. Please RSVP by Sunday 20 February or see advertisement for contact details page 3. Lenore Meldrum, President, Kenilworth & Dist. Historical Assn Inc.

MEDITATION AS CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER
editation is a universal spiritual wisdom and practice found at the core of all the great religious traditions. It is a way of simplicity, silence and stillness. It can be practised by anyone, wherever one may be on life’s journey. In Christianity the tradition of contemplation, the prayer of the heart, became marginalized and often even sometimes suspect. It was practised primarily in a monastic setting or within a religious order. In recent times, however, there has been a major recovery of the contemplative dimension of Christian faith and practice. The World Community of Christian Meditation (WCCM) teaches a practice derived from the gospel teaching of Jesus and rooted in the Christian mystical tradition. The practice has been introduced in many settings around the world such as schools, hospitals and prisons. Just as importantly this way of meditation is practised in hundreds of small groups guided by the resources made available through the website. A group has been meditating in Kenilworth for nearly 20 years and is part of a network of groups on the Sunshine Coast. Anyone seeking a meditation practice as a form of prayer is welcome to attend. Where: St John Bosco Church, Kenilworth When: Thursdays at 9.30am Sue Wolter 0439 130 158. Website wccm.org

STRUGGLING FAMILIES CAN AVOID FAST CREDIT
ot for profit Good Shepherd has urged families in financial distress to consider government backed No Interest Loans, rather than adding to credit card debt or turning to pay day lenders and other sources of fast credit. “We know that the impact of COVID has seen many people experience financial distress who have never needed help before. This is always an expensive time of year for families and we want them to get access to safe, responsible sources of financial information and support,” Ms Avramopoulos said. No Interest Loans can be used to cover a range of back-to-school expenses including books, uniforms, tablets and laptops and even school camps. Ms Avramopoulos urged families on low incomes to apply for a No Interest Loan instead of turning to high interest credit cards, buy now pay later schemes or payday lenders. “NILS has been supporting low income families for 40 years. With these loans you can borrow up to $1,500 and repay only what you borrow with absolutely no interest, no fees and no charges, ever.” The NILS program is funded by the Australian Government, in partnership with Good Shepherd and NAB.

BUSHFIRE RECOVERY PROJECT
e know that last summer’s savage bushfires had dire consequences for many native fauna species, but what impact did they have on our amphibious friends? Amongst Xanthorrhoeas some of the worst affected areas in 2019 were large swathes of wallum wetlands from Woodgate to Peregian and more recently Fraser Island / K'gari (again!). These wallum swamps are home to some of our most vulnerable frog species – the Wallum sedgefrog (Litoria olongburensis), Cooloola sedgefrog (Litoria cooloolensis), Wallum rocketfrog (Litoria freycineti) and Wallum froglet (Crinia tinnula) – which are only found in wallum country in Northern NSW and Southern QLD. These habitats have been greatly impacted by coastal development, and droughts and fires add further stress on the flora and fauna of these wonderful ecosystems. In response to the bushfires in late 2019, the Federal Government Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment has provided funding for research into the impact of the fires on frog and fish of the wallum wetlands. The MRCCC has partnered with Griffith University, the Burnett Mary Regional Group, Australian and New Guinea Fishes Assoc. and local Traditional Owners to conduct surveys in burnt and unburnt areas to make a comparison and some recommendations for future management. Last month, I was privileged to join our ‘frog lady’, Eva, and knowledgeable volunteer, Mary, for four nights surveying the wetlands around Peregian and Noosa’s North Shore. Having spent a bit of time navigating Noosa’s motorways, beaches, housing estates, and abundant roundabouts, I was pleasantly surprised to find how much of Noosa remains relatively untouched by development when you veer off the beaten track a little. Being more familiar with bushwalks through rainforests and bushlands, I found the sites we surveyed were somewhat other-worldly. With no vegetation above shoulder height, other than the occasional banksia and the flower heads of prolific Xanthorrhoeas, (above) such beauty in this unique wonderland. Our nocturnal surveys began after dark each night (when frogs are most active), and required us to bash through several metres of thick scrub – donning our head torches, gumboots, long sleeves and plenty of Rid – in order to make our way into the melaleuca swamps and wallum heathlands we were studying. It was tough going, tromping through unstable terrain with lots of hidden sink holes provoking more than a number of falls. Between surveys, we were careful to clean our boots in order to avoid spreading the terrible fungal disease Chytridiomycosis, that has been responsible for threatening the survival of many species of frogs and amphibians worldwide. Once inside the swamps, we waded through ankle-deep – and sometimes gumboot-deep – water to survey a 50-metre transect at each site. We recorded the temperature, humidity, cloud cover, moon phase and other aspects of the weather, took water samples for testing and recorded the unique plant and animal species we could see – including plenty of frogs! – while listening hard for the presence of male frogs – as only the males call. Eva’s keen ear for frog calls was tested with a number of unfamiliar species that aren’t normally heard around the creeks, streams and dams she would usually survey. Among these, we heard the vulnerable Litoria olongburensis, Crinia tinnula and, during a shower of rain on our final night, amongst a chorus of other species, L. fallax we were thrilled to hear the call of Litoria freycineti. We also identified a number of frogs by sight. Funnily enough, the frogs we saw were almost always of a different species to the frogs we heard. Lucky they’re a noisy lot! It was fascinating to see up-close the bright blue colouring on the back of the thigh that distinguishes Litoria olongburensis from its eastern cousin, Litoria fallax (pictured). Some frogs made our task much easier by coming to greet us. At our very first site, a friendly Striped rocketfrog (Litoria nasuta) climbed up Eva’s pants! This was not the first time I’ve seen frogs willingly getting up close and personal with Eva. She spends so much time around these amorous amphibians that it seems they have started to see her as kin! The frogs of the wallum are unique in that they live and breed in and around acidic water. For this reason, they are sometimes referred to as ‘acid frogs.’ Our water samples revealed deeply tannin-stained water (like strong tea), with PH levels as low as 3.3! All in all, we had a very successful week, collecting important data for the scientific record and even identifying some species of frogs at sites where they haven’t been recorded before. Yay! Our data and observations will be used to inform the future RAINFALL MOY POCKET – JANUARY 2021 management of wallum wetlands, by Graham Brennan and will hopefully go some way This January 191ml, the wettest January towards protecting the incredible since 2015 which had 229ml. Last January flora and fauna that survive in 158ml. 20 year average for January 183ml. these unique ecosystems. We had rain on 18 days, average for January being 16

OBI SURPLUS DAY
RARE EVENT FOR OUR RIVER TURTLE
WEDNESDAY 3 MARCH
H
i again! This might be too late too include but here goes if your generous mag has space: The first Wednesday of every month is Surplus day. It’s local, free, and easy. You might have seen the sign at the Obi Obi Hall and wondered what it is about. People bring in things they don’t need and are happy to give away or would like to share. It’s just a formalised extension of handing some eggs over the fence to a neighbour. A demonstration is given by one of the people who come – it’s a great chance to share a special skill and as we have been going for three and a half years nearly every one has had a turn. Keeping the demonstrations sourced from within Surplus keeps it fun, casual and free. • Next Surplus is Wednesday 3 March at 9.30am and Nicole will be taking us step by step through making fresh milled sourdough bread at home. Surplus is on – see you there! Melissa, Obi Obi

CATERING FOR ALL ASPECTS OF TREE WORKS THE MARY VALLEY VOICE © JULY 2019
he Mary River is now home to 17 new, tiny, Mary River Turtles after a clutch laid in November last year hatched. Gympie Regional Council Environment and Lands Protection officers, together with the Mary River Catchment Coordinating Committee assisted Tiaro & District Landcare in the discovery and monitoring of the first recorded nest site of the endangered Mary River Turtle (also known as the “bum” breathing or green haired turtle) on a stretch of the Mary River previously thought to be out of their reach, close to Gympie. Mary River Turtles are endangered. On average, females take 25 years to reach adulthood. Males take a little longer; closer to 30 years before they reach maturity. The nest site was monitored and protected for a period of 21 days before evidence of nest disturbance (by a dog) and impending rising water levels proved too risky to the clutch’s survival. With permission from the State Government, the clutch of eggs was exhumed and transferred to an approved enclosure managed by Tiaro Landcare, which allowed the eggs the best chance of surviving through their incubation. Last week, the hatchlings emerged 56 days after being laid and 31 days after being transferred to safety. On average, the 17 tiny MRT hatchlings weighed in at a miniscule 6.43g (the weight of a teaspoon of sugar). All have been released back into their habitat.

WELLBEING... TOURISM VIDEO MAKES HERITAGE DISCOVERY A BREEZE
I
f you’ve never stepped back into the fascinating world of Sunshine Coast yester-year, now is the time, with a new video that gives us a taste of some of our cultural heritage highlights. The Heritage Discovery video promotes some of the Sunshine Coast’s most iconic places from First Nations sites to community museums, heritage walks and historic houses. Sunshine Coast Council Community Portfolio Cr Rick Baberowski said “Many visitors and our more recent locals are simply unaware we have so many places that help tell our region’s story – both natural and cultural. This video is a great way to feature both and create a list of new places to visit. Thank you to all the people who participated in making the video, particularly our heritage sector volunteers and our region’s Traditional Owners – the Jinibara and Kabi Kabi – and their First Nations dancers. A special thanks to Jinibara Elder Uncle Noel who features in the film and Kabi Kabi representative Lyndon Davis.” Sunshine Coast Council’s coordinator of Cultural Heritage Peter Connell said the promotional video formed part of council’s cultural heritage marketing collateral: “The video will be used at visitor information centres, museums, tourist outlets, on our website, and will be distributed further afield to travel agencies.” • More information is available in the Cultural Heritage Discovery Guide printed booklet, which can be collected from Sunshine Coast Libraries, council offices and information centres. The guide is also available for download at heritage.sunshinecoast. qld.gov.au or via ‘Things to Do’ on the SCC app. Pictured top, members of Sunshine Coast’s First Nations Gubbi Gubbi Dance and Jinibara Dance troupes at the filming of the 'Sunshine Coast Cultural Heritage Discovery'.

elivering local infrastructure As one of the regions in Queensland affected by the 2019-20 bushfires, Sunshine Coast Council has received an additional $1.336 million Federal Government funding boost for the “Train Sunshine Coast” initiative to help attract high value sports tourism to the area. The Sunshine Coast is already proving a popular destination for elite sporting teams from AFL, rugby, netball and water polo. With our eye on the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Queensland, this funding brings further critical investment to help local organisations, businesses and facilities to capitalise on the tourism revenue this brings to our region. One of my top priorities continues to be delivering infrastructure for the Sunshine Coast region to support economic growth with our three biggest infrastructure projects for 2021 being majority-funded by the Federal Government. • The Bruce Highway upgrades between Caloundra Rd and the Sunshine Motorway are due to finish this year and upgrades to the Maroochydore Rd and Mons Rd interchanges will continue through the year. • The tendering process for the first phase of the North Coast Rail upgrades, north of Beerburrum, is now underway. Building stronger communties I am encouraging local clubs to apply for funding to help upgrade their facilities, purchase new equipment or deliver new events to strengthen our local community. Please check my website www.tedobrien.com.au or contact my office on 5479 2800 for more information on Federal funding rounds that are now open. COVID vaccine roll-out My office has been receiving numerous calls and emails seeking further information about the COVID-19 vaccine roll-out strategy. Answers to the most common questions and links to further information are available on my website, or please call my office and ask for a factsheet.

BY JANINE HILL
hrough the dedication and tenacity of hardworking volunteers and the generosity of communityminded businesses, Imbil has a steam engine of its own forever. Proud Mary was moved from Gympie to the Imbil Rail Park, opposite the Railway Hotel, in mid-January in a massive operation involving a special crane, trucks and earth moving machinery. The 1926 C17 class locomotive had lived at the Mary Valley Heritage Railway’s Gympie base since 2009 but was secured by the Imbil Rail Park Inc committee mid-2020. Jimmy Budgen top left, who has a background in engineering, was tasked with organising the move, which was not easy for a low-budget organisation. Crowdfunding raised some money but eventually, Jimmy went cap in hand to businesses seeking help. Kelly Green cranes agreed to do the heavy lifting, a job which would otherwise have cost $14-15,000. Corbet’s Gympie did the trucking, backed up by Clarry Sutherland of Earthland Group and Brad Simpson Excavations, who pushed the loco and caboose into place once she was on the tracks in the park. “Half the town was waiting at the corner of the pub for us to arrive,” Jimmy said. “It was awesome. What a great reception we had. She sparked up the town.” Prior to its move, #proudmary had been sandblasted and painted in two-pack enamel by volunteers enabled by Railway Hotel's huge cash injection. The arrival of the 93-year-old locomotive is not the end of the job, though, and the Imbil Rail Park Inc committee still has a lot of fundraising and a lot of work to do to realise its dream for the park. Proud Mary will be the centrepiece of what the committee hopes will be a real hub for the township. The rail park committee’s next focus is its fundraiser, Dinner Under the Stars on Good Friday, 4 April. The event is an important *fundraiser as last year’s Dinner Under the Stars was cancelled due to COVID-19. The menu was yet to be formulated when The Mary Valley Voice went to press but committee president and hostess with the mostest, “Lady Penelope” had put her music industry contacts to work to on a fivestar entertainment line-up. John Schumann, the lead singer of Redgum, and who wrote and sang I Was Only 19 (A Walk in the Light Green), and friend will headline the line-up. Mary Valley resident Amanda Emblem, whose work spans from garage rock to folk, will give Imbilites a taste of what she turns on for Aussie troopers overseas and her performances when she opened for Kiss, Mötley Crüe and Aerosmith. Jamie Dunn, television and radio personality and the voice behind the talking bathmat Agro will MC the evening for the second time. Says Lady Penelope “He promised to behave but I know he won’t because he was naughty last time. That’s why I love him!” The event drew more than 100 people in its first year and more than 150 in its second year. About 200 people are expected to sit down for a four-course dining experience. Lady Penelope said it was attended mostly by Imbil locals, a few other Mary Valley residents, and some people from Noosa. She adds “There’s a lot of colour, a lot of movement, a lot of entertainment, and a lot of fun, along with some special food. There’s nothing else like it held in the area. It’s our big night

he locals had word through the Imbil bush telegraph, of a Proud Mary train robbery of a gold bullion safe. Serious Bushrangers would be ganging-up for action, camera, pistols and cannon fire under the midday sun. The Guards braced themselves and called upon Her Majesty's Troupers to back them up and thrill the crowd. There was a Damsel tied to the track, weeping and outraged Passengers and finally a Felon in shorties caught and half stripped for his righteous Flogging. The public bore witness to this historical re-enactment as it was also a fundraiser for the Imbil Rail Park Inc. Ye all were welcomed! A raffle and fun was had, shots were fired, while Out of Order the band, performed across the road at the Railway Hotel from 2pm. Great appreciation to Lady Penelope and Kylie Cowling for their Courts evidence presented here for posterity. Maybe a man (photo bombers beware) could be tied to the tracks next time? Or stray children thinks Jill for full use of 'public liability' insurance. Just kidding Jimmy B. Well done all!

oad identity Have you ever wondered if a particular road belongs to council or the State Government? Good news, the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) has added a new feature to their QLD Traffic website, 'Road Lookup' – visit qldtraffic.qld.gov.au/lookup to try it yourself. Another tip is that TMR generally controls roads which connect towns and often roads named after towns are TMR roads. The feeder roads are usually council-controlled. When a TMR road is also the main street of a town, while the actual road is theirs, the car parks and pathways are usually maintained by council. I hope this helps you in identifying which organisation to contact should you need to report any issues. To report matters regarding council roads visit www. sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au, contact council’s Customer Contact Centre on 5475 7272 or email mail@sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au To report matters regarding state roads, please contact TMR on 13 19 40 or visit www.tmr.qld.gov.au. Australia Day Awards Congratulations to all the Sunshine Coast Australia Day Award winners and nominees. Not only are these awards a great honour, they also recognise the hard work and community involvement of those individuals and groups. Thank you for your commitment to helping others and improving our Sunshine Coast. Award details are found on council’s website. Be asbestos aware With the ongoing storms that may cause damage to your home or even if you are carrying out home renovations, it’s crucial to know that asbestos removal and disturbance is extremely hazardous. Council strongly recommends homeowners only use licensed asbestos removalists when dealing with asbestos to ensure that fibres are not released into the environment and to avoid longterm health risks.
