St Paul’s rectory facelift reviewed by congregation Many people took the opportunity to inspect the historic St Paul’s rectory in Commissioner Street, Cooma last Sunday. The rectory was open for inspection following the 107-yearold building being given a facelift prior to the arrival of Reverend Lance and Rosemary Lawton. Mr James Litchfield spoke at the open
day, commemorating the laying of the Foundation Stone by Arthur J Litchfield in 1906. Pictured, James Litchfield passes around the ceremonial trowel used at the laying of the foundation stone in 1906.

Little fires a concern across Monaro Lightning strikes during a dry thunderstorm across Monaro last Wednesday were responsible for starting a number of small fires, mainly in the south. About nine fires were started in the
lower Snowy area, which became obvious as the day warmed up. They were located from the Victorian border to just south of Dalgety, but were quickly brought under control. By Monday, the fires were all under

Repairs to Lake Jindabyne foreshore and path ready for Easter Repairs to Lake Jindabyne foreshore and path will be completed by Easter and ready in time for the 2014 Lakelight Sculpture. Council is pleased to announce that works to repair the erosion damaged foreshore and path is scheduled to commence 17 February (after the Flowing Festival) and be finalised before the busy tourist period of Easter. General Manager, Mr Joseph Vescio explained, “Council agreed on funding at the 17 December Council meeting to repair the damaged sections and the work must be completed while the lake level is relatively low. It is also highly dependent on good weather so we will commence as soon as we can after the school holidays.� “Snowy River Shire Council have consulted with Snowy Hydro and agreed to a foreshore design that should prevent similar erosion if the Shire was to experience weather conditions and lake levels like those in 2012. The design will require a significant amount of rock and material to stabilise the embankment and limit the damage caused by the ebb and flow of higher than expected lake levels but also seeks to enhance the view from Jindabyne as you look out onto the lake.�
“I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their patience while we looked at different possible funding streams. We are all looking forward to having the work completed and the fences removed.� The work which is expected to take approximately six weeks

Still time for tourism operators to access funding Tourism operators throughout the Monaro can still apply for a share in $2.25 million available through the NSW Government’s Regional Visitor Economy Fund, the Member for Monaro John Barilaro said today. Deadlines for applications close on Friday, 31 January 2014. “The Regional Visitor Economy Fund provides funding for the regional tourism operators to grow their business, which in turn boosts the local visitor economy through the injection of visitor expenditure, and of course creates and sustains tourism-related jobs,� said Mr Barilaro. “This funding provides a great opportunity for tourism providers in the Monaro to access funding that will help them to develop and promote their tourism products to visitors both in Australia and overseas.�

The $2.25 million is part of the Regional Visitor Economy Fund 2013-2014 which totals $7.2 million. This includes a pool of $3.7 million, quarantined for Regional Tourism Organisations, and $3.5 million through two contestable funding rounds which are open to the industry, Local Government and Regional Tourism Organisations. Further information on the Regional Visitor Economy Fund, including Guidelines, Frequently Asked Questions and the Regional Visitor Economy Fund Application Form, is available on the Destination NSW website at www.destinationsw.com.au/ rvef

Home and Community Care (HACC) Funding in Eden-Monaro This is a book you will read again and again. The book is narrated by Death. It is the story of a German girl Liesel Meminger who is nine years old. Her mother has given her up and she goes to live with the Hubermann’s in a small town just before World War II. On the way her younger brother dies which leaves her traumatised. Her new father is a gentle man who teaches her to read, starting with a book she took from the cemetery where her brother is buried. Liesel befriends a boy, Rudy Steiner who falls in love with her. At a book burning the local Mayor’s wife, Ilsa, sees Liesel stealing a book and later invites Liesel to read in her library. Hans agrees to hide a Jew, Max Vandenburg, keeping a promise he made to the man who saved his life. Liesel and Max become good friends and Max writes Leisel two stories about their friendship. When Hans gives bread to a Jew being sent to a concentration camp there are repercussions and Max must leave and Hans is drafted into the military. Liesel next sees Max being marched to Dachau concentration camp. Liesel’s loses hope and blames the written word for the everything that has happened to her. Ilsa encourages her Liesel to write her own story. Liesel survives the war and goes on to live and only dies after living a long and happy life.

Community service order for animal offences A man facing six charges of not adequately caring for his animals, has been given 100 hours of community service for his offences. Cory Fenwick appeared in Cooma Local Court on January 7. He was charged with failing to provide adequate food, drink, shelter and service to the animals, namely five dogs and one sheep. The offences occurred in March 2013, at a property at Shannon’s Flat which the defendant was renting off Amanda Harriett and her partner. Fenwick had sourced the property through the online service Gumnut.
Fenwick, his partner and two children moved to the property in January 2013, bringing with them, five dogs, eight sheep and four horses. In March, one of the horses fell into a septic tank on the property and drowned. The incident caused a difference of opinion between Fenwick and his landlord, resulting in Fenwick, his partner and children, leaving the property on March 12 and leaving the animals behind. On March 16, the landlord visited the property and saw the five dogs restrained in cages without food or water. She tried to attend to the dogs, but one was very aggressive and she was unable to
do so. The next day, police and council rangers attended the property. They found the five dogs- a young Border Collie, a young Great Dane and two Staffordshire terriers, plus one large bull mastiff, confined to the cages. None had food and there was only a little water in the cages. The cages also contained dog faeces. The bull mastiff was very aggressive and despite attempts to pacify it, it was decided to euthanise it, in order to reach the other dogs. The remaining dogs were examined by local veterinarian, who determined they
were at best, a body score of four out of 10, with the Great Dane being at best, a score three. The RSPCA was involved, looking after the animals, to a cost of $11,453. On March 31, police were again called to the property, where a sheep was found to be severely flyblown and unable to get to its feet. Once again, a local vet was called in and advised the animal’s condition could have been prevented with care. Fenwick said he had organised with someone to look after the animals, but that person could not be identified by police.

Following the floods in March 2012, which caused major and significant damage to Snowy River Shire's road infrastructure; I am pleased to advise that Council is nearing completion of the works required to repair the network to pre-disaster condition. This work has seen almost $7M of disaster relief funding committed to the road network with some of the more challenging repairs contracted to Huon Contractors Pty Ltd through NSW Public Works (Project Management). Two of these projects are Bobundara Bridge and William Street Culvert (Berridale), which are currently being worked on by the contractor at a cost in excess of $600,000.00 and which required considerable negotiation between Council, RMS and Fisheries to gain approval for the designs and then for work to commence. However, both projects are now underway and scheduled for completion by February 2014. Hopefully the completion of all projects will close yet another chapter in Council’s continuous attempts to maintain the Shire's road network.

Local museum awarded NSW Government funding A volunteer-run museum in Adaminaby has been awarded NSW Government funding to help enhance its collection, the Member for Monaro John Barilaro has announced. The Volunteer Initiated Museum Small Grants Program offers grants of up to $2,000 for short-term, collectionfocused projects delivered by volunteerinitiated museums across the state. The Snowy Scheme Museum at Adaminaby will receive $1,753 to purchase solar panels and lights to light up external display walls at the entrance to the museum, to be visible to night time visitors.
Mr Barilaro said the funding will help this important community museum to develop its collection. “The displays at the Snowy Scheme Museum at Adaminaby highlight the achievements of engineers and builders, the machinery and the role that the project played in the development of the modern Australian nation,” said Mr Barilaro. “The museum showcases one of the greatest engineering feats of the world. “Community museums play a vital role as custodians of our history and heritage, so it’s fitting the Government supports projects that help to preserve local
collections for the rest of the community to enjoy. “This funding is part of the NSW Government’s commitment to increasing opportunities for participation in arts and cultural activities in regional communities.” The Volunteer Initiated Museum Small Grants Program is an Arts NSW devolved funding program administered by Museums and Galleries NSW on behalf of the NSW Government.

REVITALISING COUNCILS WITH MERGER PROPOSALS The Minister for Local Government Don Page, last week released the long awaited final reports addressing the financial, governance and administrative problems facing local government. These reports of the Independent Local Government Review Panel and the Local Government Acts Taskforce, address the challenges and tribulations in the journey towards a revitalised, stronger and more sustainable local government. They contain a series of recommendations for reform and solutions that work. In the initial report released by the Review Panel last year, amongst other matters, there was considerable concern expressed by the community and Local Government over the proposed amalgamations and boundary changes. Whilst this final report does not support forcibly amalgamating councils now, it does provide a very interesting and detailed “merger” blueprint for the government without the need to progress the current government’s “no forced amalgamation policy”. To this end, a fascinating array of new structures, rating systems and revenue support are being proposed for local government. Some novel approaches include concepts such as Joint Organisations of Councils, Rural Council and Community Boards, Boundary Commissions and financial assistance with voluntary mergers. It is understood that the NSW Government will consider these final reports over the coming months and provide appropriate consultative processes and legislative protocols to progress some of these, if not all, recommendations. Councils and the community have the opportunity to comment on these final reports and have until 7 March 2014 to make a written submission. Given that the proposed changes need to be developed in partnership with councils and the communities they support, this council is advised that feedback provided by the community in the current round of consultations will assist to inform the appropriate government response. Community members are encouraged to take this opportunity to access and review the reports by visiting the Premier & Cabinet Division of Local Government at their website at www.dlg.nsw.gov.au.

As of Monday, registered shooters are once again allowed into state forests to blast the hide off various prey. While there are a number of new restrictions and requirements, The Postman still has issues with the whole concept. It is The Postmans’ opinion that anyone who considers shooting defenceless animals a sport, is the sort of person who should be denied a shooter’s licence on psychological grounds. It’s a bit like all those fishing programs, where some fishing guru drags a fish out of its natural environment and holds it, gasping, so the camera can cover all angles. Then, so as to be seen not to be cruel, the fish is ‘swum’ for a couple of seconds and then left go. Unless of course it has fought for its freedom so fiercely that it has no hope of surviving. One of two things should happen here – 1. the fishing guru should be made to try to survive in the fish’s environment or 2. Don’t throw a line in unless the resultant catch is going to be donged on the head and eaten. As for the crazy bloke on TV chasing river monsters – well, what can one say? This Sunday is Australia Day and there is enough happening all other the Monaro to keep everybody busy – especially the organising committees! So, do your bit – attend the ceremonies and celebrate. It’s a great day for a barbecue and maybe some backyard cricket. Congratulations in advance to all the awards winners – it’s people like you who make our communities what they are. Congratulations. Congratulations also to Barry Ager (that’s with an ‘er’), who retires from the Cooma ExServices Club on Friday. You’ll be missed, Baz, but enjoy retirement!

Congratulations for Cooma-Monaro Shire Council’s future planning process of repealing the Development Control Plans for Exempt and Complying developments. It was a strategic masterpiece, advertising the repeal issue when most people were distracted by Christmas partying, holidays and closed council offices. The repeal has no ratepayer benefit, no replacement plans were indicated and the NSW State Planning Regulations seem unchanged on this issue.

shires. Now every building of any size needs a DA and fee which is another disincentive for the Cooma-Monaro region. Are we forgetting the past 20 years of stagnant population growth and recent birth rate decline, the current drought and economic and business downturn, which all hint at a recession, while council doubles their staff numbers and has always increased rates and fees greater than CPI for reduced basic service. The repeal of the Exempt and Complying Development Plans is another mode of exploiting ratepayers, ensuring council’s future empire will remain. Glynn Kay Cooma
Reply to a ‘ludicrous’ article Editor, I refer to a ludicrous article, ‘No stomach for selling off Snowy Hydro’, w/e Australian Jan. 11-12, 2014 and in particular the nonsense that privatisation was prevented in 2006 by an alliance of environmentalists, unionists, farmers and nostalgists. Environmentalists have been the sworn enemies of the scheme and instigated the vandalism conducted by the Carr govt. Unionists have had no influence on the scheme in any respect from its inception in 1949 to the present and that has contributed in a large measure to the success of the scheme. Farmers are too parochial and disorganised to contribute to anything substantial - it is true that one local farmer managed to get photo opportunities from gullible journalists but his only contribution has been to donate large quantities of his topsoil towards the build up of silt in the Snowy river downstream from Jindabyne dam. In fact it was a concerted effort by a triumvirate of two professional engineers and the then Commissioner of the SMA, Vin Good plus the efforts of local State MP Steve Whan who strenuously opposed privatisation by his own govt. both in and out of parliament plus intense representations by Gary Nairn federal MP for Eden Monaro to John Howard that resulted in Howard pulling the plug. At the same time John Howard was made aware of the legal complexities which would make implementation virtually impractible. Following the collapse of privatisation Steve Whan instituted proceedings in State parliament which will only permit privatisation
following passage of legislation through both houses of parliament. Now that Steve is a member of the upper house that will certainly not happen. The Snowy scheme was instigated primarily to transfer water from the Snowy river catchment where it was wasted out to sea to the Murray and Murrumbidgee rivers for irrigation with the consequent generation of hydro power to pay for the scheme. The emphasis has changed as the value of the renewable energy has increased but the requirement for the transfer of water remains. It is hard to believe that any responsible body would sell into private, possibly foreign hands control of Australia’s most valuable water system but then State govt.s are not generally considered responsible bodies. John Howards’ most monumental blunder was to hand any ownership of the Snowy scheme to the States. It was entirely a Commonwealth initiative with the diverted water being given to NSW and VIC. free. Rather than privatisation the most sensible solution would be for the federal govt. to buy back the shares given to NSW and Vic. Since corporatisation Snowy Hydro has been completely self sufficient has upgraded, maintained the assets and increased the installed capacity from about 3300 MW to more than 4000 and has at the same time paid handsome dividends. The present demand that the scheme pays more in dividends than its profits smacks of sour grapes - if we can’t sell it we’ll send it broke. Noel Carter, Cooma

WATER MAIN REPLACEMENT WORK AND TEMPORARY ROAD CLOSURE OF ALLARA STREET, COOMA Please be advised that weather permitting, water main reconstruction work has been programmed to commence in Allara Street between Orana Avenue and Attunga Place. This essential work will commence from 13 January 2014, and is expected to be completed within six (6) weeks. Works will be carried out between 8:30am and 4:00pm Monday to Friday and will involve partial and full closure of the roadway at certain times. The road closures are required to ensure the safety of staff and the general public whilst this work is undertaken due to the nature of the work and local traffic conditions. Individual property water services from the new watermain to the water meter
locations will also be reconstructed and will require Cooma-Monaro Shire staff and contractors to have access onto private property at times to complete this work. Council apologises for any inconvenience this work may cause and asks residents and motorists to be mindful of construction crews and machinery that will be working on and around this project. Should any unforeseen problems arise relating to this work during its progress, please do not hesitate to speak with any member of council’s on-site work crew who will be able to assist. Any enquiries can be directed to Councils Engineering Services on 6455 1801.
SALE YARDS ANIMAL WASTE REMOVAL Council is in the process of completing the removal of sheep and cattle waste from the Sale Yards. The works have been undertaken by local contractors meeting the strict requirements of the Environmental Protection Authority, NSW, and maintaining the day to day operations of the Sale Yards. In the first contract, approximately 1000 cubic metres of sheep waste have been removed from a settling pond for reuse as a soil conditioner. The second contract is still underway is for the removal of around 800 cubic metres of liquid sheep and cattle waste.
To meet environmental protection guidelines the liquid waste must be converted into a solid ‘spadeable’ state before being removed from the Sale Yards. The contractor undertaking the works mixes a coagulant into the liquor whilst pumping the mixture into a specially designed trailer where clean water is extracted from the mixture. The remaining dry product is then being transported to a site where it is being used as a soil conditioner. This represents a major step forward with these valued products being responsibly reused as opposed to the earlier practice of dumping the waste in landfill.

Barry Ager finishes his employment at Cooma Ex-Services Club this Friday, after 43 and a half years. He remembers the exact date he began working at the Cooma Ex-Services Club. It was July 4, 1970 and he began his career at the Club as a casual. Six years later he left his day job and joined the Club as a full time employee and hasn’t looked back. The job at the club supplemented his main job at Roy Howard’s record shop in Sharp Street. Like most young people of the time, Barry wanted a bit of extra money so he could travel, buy a car - do all the things that a young bloke wanted to do. He started out as a casual barman and then moved on to doing tray service in the dining room. Cellar work followed and then Barry was promoted to the position of bar supervisor and eventually became the operations manager.
When he spoke to The Monaro Post last week, he explained how much he loved his job. “I love the work and I love meeting people. In this job I have met so many different people. I’ve met Prime Ministers, State Premiers and show business personalities “I have worked with so many wonderful people.” He estimates he has worked with about 500 other staff members over the last 43 ½ years and worked under 12 secretary managers and nine presidents. He said he will miss his workmates and the many patrons of the club, but “there comes a time when we all need to have some “me” time”, Barry said. Continued on page 11...
WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND A HEART FELT FAREWELL TO
BARRY
Wednesday January 22, 2014
Farewell
to
Continued from page 10... “The industry is moving so very fast these days, it is very demanding. For the last 13 years, Barry has conducted the clubs raffles and badge draws, as well as organising other entertainment and promotions. During his time at the club, Barry has seen a variety of different acts strut their stuff in the functions room – from ice skaters to woodchoppers, rock bands to comedians. Having met so many performers, Barry said his favourite would be Troy Casser-Daly, who has performed in Cooma on a few occasions. Troy joins other Australian legends such as the Delltones who once performed regularly at the club. The club has seen many eras come and go during Barry’s tenure. Sunday nights used to be very popular for the smorgasbord which catered for the whole family. For a time, this was followed by the movies.
FAREWELL 11
BAZ Licensing restriction make it difficult for the club to still screen movies now. As time has passed, many things have changed. “When I started, a middy was only 18c – now it’s nearly $4” Barry said. Legislation has also changed in that time, with Cooma Ex-Services Club having to change with them. Barry spoke highly of his employers – “The club has been marvellous to me. “I could not have ever had a better employer. “I’d like to thank all the people who have supported me and what I have done at the club over the years – the patrons, the staff, the management. It couldn’t have happened without their support. Barry turns 63 in June. He is not intending to leave Cooma because he genuinely loves living here. “I’ve done a fair bit of work to the house lately, so it shouldn’t need any maintenance for a while and I have
the MG that needs to do a bit more. I’ll also do a bit of travelling. He said moving away to a new town, at his age would be difficult – ‘I love Cooma, I love the people. It’s such a friendly little town. I intend to enjoy my retirement. “It would be too hard, at my age to up stakes and move somewhere new – I’d be at a loss then. After four decades, Barry still believes the club provides an important element to the local community. It’s still a social hub and, he said, is becoming more and more popular with the younger members As a venue, he believes people cannot do better – especially for weddings and other big occasions. No doubt Barry will be popping in on a regular basis to keep in touch with is friends and other members.
Happy retirement, Baz.
A great big thankyou for all your hard work, loyalty and friendships you have made over the last 43 years, enjoy your retirement. Barry you have seen a lot of changes, faces and renovations and the Board of Directors, management, staff and our patrons would like to say
THANKYOU & FAREWELL TO THE FACE AND VOICE OF THE COOMA EX-SERVICES CLUB

SRSC photo competition winner Snowy Ruber Shire Council would like to thank the community members who participated in and supported the 2013 sustainability photo competition. The entries received were of such an amazing standard and creatively answered the question ‘What does sustainability look like in our Shire’. Public votes were tallied and Snowy River Shire Councillors had the hard task of deciding the winner at the December 2013 Delivery & Operations Committee meeting. Congratulations to Laura Paterson! Laura’s amazing image of ‘Natures Recycler’
was chosen as the overall winner of the competition. ‘Natures Recycler’ will become the cover of the 2014/2015 Waste and Recycling information booklet distributed to households across the Snowy River Shire in June. Council would like to thank each entrant for the images submitted and the community for taking the time to vote on Face Book and at the Recycling Expo.

As a child Victor Kline was sexually, physically ally and emotionally abused by his mother. Despite pite this, or perhaps because of it, he went on to o lead a diverse, exciting and often dangerous s life. From medical guinea pig, to Federal prosecutor, osecutor, to t outback barrister. From provincial France to o the highlands of New Guinea to dodging bullets in the Sri Lankan Civil War; The House at Anzac Parade is his story, and the story of his healing.
Biography Victor Kline started his working life as Sydney's youngest barrister. He worked as a Federal prosecutor in Sydney before going on to become a defence barrister in the wild west days of Alice Springs. Later he became an author of non fiction works and editor of the Federal Court Reports and Federal Law Reports. Victor has also worked as a playwright, theatre director and actor off Broadway and in various centres of Australia. As well as New York and Central Australia, he has lived and worked also in London, Paris, the South of France, and New Guinea. He currently lives with wife Katharine and a little grey cat called Spud, in Sydney, Australia.
On Monday November 25, 2013, Snowy River Shire Council staff members joined together to help raise awareness and important funds for White Ribbon. All attendees at the luncheon were asked to participate in the ’My Oath’ campaign for White Ribbon, by ’swearing’ to stop violence against women. Snowy River Shire Council is proud to be supporting White Ribbon in raising awareness about violence against women in our community and encourages others to do the same, not just on one day but every day. ’One in three Australian women has experienced physical or sexual violence in her lifetime,’ says Margie Ferguson, organiser of the event. ’This could be your mother, sister, daughter or friend. So by supporting White Ribbon you will be joining us on the path of prevention and change.’ ‘This is something that we generally don’t think about in our professional relationships and lives, much less talk about’, says Joe Vescio, SRSC General Manager. ‘To be able to share stories from personal experiences with
colleagues and listen to and participate in open discussions about the statistics is the first step in breaking down these societal barriers. Doing something as simple as swearing the oath and wearing a white ribbon is quite meaningful. 41 oaths were signed by staff on the day.’ Councillors supported the event by resolving that Council would match every dollar raised by staff. SRSC has been able to raise $200 for White Ribbon. This was just one of many events that took place across Australia to raise awareness for White Ribbon Day, 25 November, the UN Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. For more information about White Ribbon Day visit www.whiteribbon. org.au. You can also take part in the ‘My Oath’ campaign by visiting www. whiteribbon.org.au/myoath and swearing never to commit, excuse or remain silent about violence against women. Pictured, General Manager Joseph Vescio with Margie Ferguson holding a cheque for White Ribbon.
Snowy not for sale “Despite fevered media speculation that Snowy Hydro is being considered for privatisation, there are simply no plans to sell Snowy Hydro” said Dr Peter Hendy, Member for EdenMonaro. “During the election I made it perfectly clear that Snowy Hydro would not be sold. This was backed up by a statement of the then responsible shadow minister, the Shadow Minister for Finance, Deregulation and Debt Reduction, Andrew Robb. In reply to accusations from the Labor Party that the Coalition would sell Snowy Hydro, Mr Robb responded ‘The claim is of course false, totally baseless and Labor knows it’ [The Australian, 12 August 2013], said Dr Hendy. “Since the election that position has been reiterated to me by the Minister for Finance, Senator Mathias Cormann and the Minister for Industry, Ian Macfarlane. As the Member for Eden-Monaro I believe this issue is of
particular relevance to the electorate and it is important that the Coalition Government sticks to this election promise. The people of the electorate can be assured that I will fight to maintain that promise. “The Snowy Hydro scheme has a special place in the hearts of Australians. It is an icon. It ranks with other icons like the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.” “It is not a ‘natural fit’ for Snowy Hydro to be placed on any privatisation list. It is incumbent on those who argue for its privatisation to make the case. They need to show where the public benefit will be advanced and how the steady stream of dividend income from the existing operation would be replaced. They also need to explain how the water management and environmental responsibilities of the entity will be adequately met”, Dr Hendy said.

2014 Preparing the school lunch box is like walking a tightrope. Balancing the nutritional needs of growing children while offering foods they will actually eat can be challenging for even the most organised parents. With about a third of a child’s total food intake for the day being consumed at school, it is important that the bulk of food included in your child’s lunch box provides much needed nutrients, vitamins and minerals for energy and growth. Wholegrains for energy The first thing that needs to be considered when packing a lunch is a good source of carbohydrate for energy. For most children, this will be a sandwich but may also be a wrap made from flatbread such as Lavash or Lebanese bread, or from cracker biscuits or rice and corn cakes. It is known that wholegrain varieties of breads and cerealsA are digested more slowly than more processed white varieties and are likely to keep children fuller for longer.
Protein and vegies Aim for your child’s sandwich to contain a good source of lean protein such as 97 per
your child’s lunch box. Children will eat fruit if they are hungry and there are no other more appealing
lunch box runs the risk of them swapping their fruit for more appealing packaged options. A more realistic approach is to include
are better options, sometimes busy parents do need to rely on snack bars to fill lunch boxes. Small sized bars that contain less than 400kJ per serve are lower in calories and processed carbohydrates. Varieties that are also based on whole grains or contain some dietary fibre, ideally more than 4g fibre per 100g of product are also reasonably good choices.
Berridale Public School is pleased to offer your children outstanding educational opportunity in 2014. Students enjoy being part of small learning groups which allow greater opportunities for individual attention. Our school facilities are designed to maximise student learning outcomes. These facilities include well-resourced classrooms, integrated technology, a modern library and a large, well maintained playground.

The protein portion will keep your child full, help to maintain concentration levels through the afternoon lessons and help prevent the four o’clock rush to the fridge when they get home. Also try to add some sort of salad to the sandwich. Salad and vegetables add fibre and bulk, which also helps to keep him or her full. Some options that will not make sandwiches too soggy include lettuce, grated carrot, celery or capsicum and cucumber circles.
“junk type” options available. Different fruit options include small tins of fruit in natural juice, small plastic containers of grapes or strawberries, pieces of banana or melon, mandarins or stonefruit or small packets of sultanas or dried apricots. Water to drink Water should be the drink of choice. Fruit juices, cordials, flavoured waters and full strength soft drinks are very high in sugar and should not be consumed on a daily basis. Freeze water bottles the night before for hot summer days.

one, small nutritious snack. Unfortunately, it does seem that many parents are over filling their children’s lunch boxes with snack food. Aim for one small (~20g or <400kJ snack food) in your child’s lunch box each day. Other nutritious snack choices include reduced-fat flavoured milk, cheese sticks, yoghurt, cheese and crackers, mini-muffins and low-fat cookies.

Helping YOU Prosper New Year’s Resolution

Situated 6km north of Cooma with 1.5km frontage to Shannons Flat Road and 1km frontage to Pilot Creek Road. This unique block has a dwelling entitlement,electricity and phone lines. The block contains natural bushland with spectacular views rising from the river to an elevation of 850m. This land has been held by the same family for about 150 years. This a rare opportunity to purchase a quality bush recreational block in a prime location, with good access , river frontage and dwelling entitlement, only 5 minutes from Cooma. It would be most suitable to outdoor activities including horse riding, mountain biking, canoeing , fishing and more.
It is the time of year where we all look at ways of improving our life and making those New New Year’s Resolutions, but unfortunately most people do not stick to them and achieve their positive change. Why? Everyone has good intentions but the problem is change can be hard unless you “really want it”, you have specific outcomes (goals) and a plan to achieve them. As most people’s first thought for change in a New Year’s Resolution is to improve their health in some way, but a very large percentage want to improve their financial position. Whether that is increasing your income or investing for your retirement. Well if you are someone who would like to improve your financial position now is a great time, especially if you want to invest in property. All the elements are right for strong growth and large number of economist agree that 2014 will be a boom year and kick of a strong growth period in selected locations across Australia, with double digit percentage growth per annum forecasted. So if you want to benefit by this I would recommend you know what you want, set some goals, short, medium and long term financial outcomes and put a plan together to achieve these goals. Timing is crucial to your success so if you are considering investing, Property can increase your income and provide you leveraged capital growth. Living locally here in Cooma with a National Property Education and consultancy company I love helping people, especially local Snowy Mountains residents who would not normally have access to the personal education, the goal setting session, Prosperity Plans and quality wholesale property Australia wide. With over 15 years’ experience in property investing and 10 years in Personal Change coaching along with many years in the electrical trade and Business Management, the skills and experience has allowed me and our business help hundreds and hundreds of people many living locally in the Snowy’s. If you would like to take advantage of these services and kick start your New Year’s Resolution on the right foot, I would be happy to help. Where we help people from education, goal setting, to planning, to having a quality built property in the highest growth locations to finding a tenant please do not hesitate to contact me. A great place to start is to get some education, our website is a good place to start www.prosperitypropertyadvisors.com.au or you can always contact me for a personal 1 on 1 complimentary strategy session thanks to the Monaro Post.

Happy New Year! As we welcome in the new year of 2014, I have taken the time to reflect on 2013, and the changes in my life over the past 12 months. It was an exciting time as I established myself in a new business, welcomed a new grandson to our family, and saw my eldest son get married! I would like to thank those people who have put their trust in me, and given me the opportunity to help them with their home loan needs. I appreciate your support. I have been able to help quite a few people, either getting into the home they desire, or finding them a better deal on their existing loan. I have learned a lot in the process, and continue to do so with each new opportunity. I look forward to helping many more people in 2014 achieve their goals. So, whether you are looking at buying your first home, an investment property, or are simply unsure of what options you do have. Let 2014 be the year your dreams come true!

Riposte Lisa Ashurst It’s the lot of every doting pet owner I suppose; the tendency to drop whatever you’re doing whenever your animal companion shows their furred or feathered face to give you The Look and you instantly become putty in their paws/feet/etc. Well in its way that’s fine because they depend on us after all to see to their needs but the thing is they know all about the putty business and exploit it without compunction. Case in point is Hedwig. Hedwig is a
Wednesday January 22, 2014 compact ball of chook with quite a personality who knows her name, comes when she’s called and is incredibly cute and to those who believe chooks cannot think beyond food and water have obviously never owned any. Mine know exactly how to play the game and whether they leaned it from observing the Resident Pusses (felines are masters of manipulation when it comes to humans) or just picked it up over time is beside the point. Chooks can suck you in just as completely and when you have a small clutch of them like I do you really see those personalities (manipulations really) coming out. Case in point is definitely Hedwig and if ever a bundle of feathers knew she was as
appealing as they come, it’s this one, and she’s worked out that if she presents herself, cat fashion, at the door I will come out of it to give her some kind of treat or other and I suspect the others have cottoned on, or else she’s told them, because they are beginning to follow suit. What’s really strange is that it’s taken me till now to cotton to the obvious fact that I was being so skilfully managed! Yes managed, but the conditioning is so complete that even that knowledge fails to stop me from trotting outside with tasty bits for the little band of con artists! Talk about play on my emotions! But that’s what happens I guess when you give yourself over completely to your
pets. Sure, I ran around doing things for my kids too but I drew a few lines with the kids that I have never thought to impose on the Fur and Feathers. I don’t think this means I was a bad mother. But I think it does imply I’m a push-over when it comes to my animal companions. I can’t recall ever saying “Yes, but in a minute, okay!” to them! So why bring all this up now? Well, it’s because I dropped everything in the middle of an important job this morning because Hedwig was giving me The Look through the screen door...and the penny just dropped. So, knowledge is Power, right? Nope. Not at all.

First cattle sale for 2014 Cooma Associated Agents yarded 180 Scale cattle and 270 store cattle at the January 16 sale. It was a cheaper market across the board as the dry heat tightens its grip on South Eastern NSW and Victoria. Heavy cows sold to 106c with most sales 90c – 98c. Some pens passed in with Vendors unwilling to accept the prices on offer. Heavy heifers also cheaper with killable types out to 106c. Plainer unfinished types were harder to shift selling from 65c-80c per kilo Feeder steers to 140c with very limited supply. Store market held up reasonably well with Victorians’ supporting well. Cows and calves sold to $775 most sales $620 - $710. Yearling steers struggled in the cheaper market with yearlings to $405. Yearling heifers worst affected selling to $310 for store condition lines.

Schute Bell wool report An expected offering of close to 60,000 bales was rostered for this week sale however by the weeks close we had seen less than 54,000 bales actually offered for sale. The uncertainty created by this large expected offering and the way the market opened up after the Christmas recess led to the largest presale withdrawal rate in over 12 months. Early in the week the market followed on a similar trend to the previous week with prices continuing to ease. This was particularly the case for the lower spec and offtypes that suffered the greatest falls. On a positive note however the better wool sold to similar levels. This is a common result when we see large offerings hit the market as buyers continue to chase the better types and some of the lesser wools just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite get the competition. The market finished the week on a very positive note on the back of a fall in the Australian dollar that reached a three and a half year low. This resulted in all micron categories closing dearer on Thursday.
Scholarships on offer from NSW Farmers Association Students committed to agriculture and rural communities are encouraged to apply for a NSW Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tertiary scholarship before mid February. As part of a long standing scholarship program, this year the association will be offering 5 scholarships to the value of $4000 each for students committed to helping farming and rural communities grow and prosper. Students must be in their second or subsequent year of university study, or first or subsequent year of vocational study to be eligible. In addition, students, their partners, or parents must have held a full producer
membership with the association during the past two years. The chair of the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s selection panel Sarah Thompson said she is keen to reward students who show an enthusiasm and passion for agriculture and who demonstrate the ability to become future industry leaders. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We encourage all eligible students to begin the application process now to avoid missing out on this great opportunity,â&#x20AC;? she said. Full details and application forms are available on the NSW Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; website www.nswfarmers. org.au. Forms must be completed and returned to the association by 14 February 2014.
Landowners urged to be extra vigilant As expected we saw a high passed in rate of 15.7% across the country as some growers resisted the falling market and were cautious of the large offering. This weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sales This weeks sale consists of a National Offering of 47,612 bales across the three selling centres. We will be offering our catalogues Ja for sale on Thursday 23rd January 14. 2014.

The NSW Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) is requesting landowners on the Monaro to be extremely cautious whilst working in the paddocks due to the increased risk of fires. Community Safety Officer Ailish Pope said under the current period of increased fire danger, landowners play an important role in preventing fires from breaking out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Using farm machinery including slashers, grinders, welding equipment, pumps or any equipment likely to be a source of heat and fire on days of increased fire risk can be very dangerous. Property owners should also be mindful of driving vehicles and motorbikes in paddocks because hot exhausts in dry grass can start fires which can develop quickly,â&#x20AC;? said Ms Pope. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These fires not only have the potential to threaten property but also destroy pastures critical for primary production on the Monaro. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re asking landowners to stop all work
in paddocks that could start fires and be extra careful between the hours of 9:00 in the morning and 6:00 at night, or until the fire danger eases. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This includes the use of motorised, cutting, grinding and welding equipment in all open areas.â&#x20AC;? Ms Pope said the NSW RFS appreciates the co-operation of all landowners on days of heightened fire danger. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In recent years, substantial fires have been started by farm machinery and equipment in hot, dry conditions like the conditions forecast for the next several days. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A few hours of down time lowers the risk of fires breaking out, and can prevent a great deal of damage to our community,â&#x20AC;? said Ms Pope.

At the end of the 2013 half of the district night tennis, involving both Berridale and Jindabyne teams, the Dorpers and the Merinos hold a slight lead with 20 and 19 points respectively, followed by the Dohnes on 17 points, the Dorsets on 16 and the Suffolks on 12. Points are accrued with four for a win and two for a loss and three for a draw. To date the Dorpers, captained by Sue Luccarda, have won all their games. The Merinos are doing well with only one defeat and one wash out. This team has a strong rural element with names like Hedger, Suthern, Wellsmore and is captained by Robyn Reid. The leading Jindabyne team is the Dohnes, ably led by Tony Edwards, good to have a policeman on the court to keep the law and order. One prominent member of this team is the octogenarian Pat Edmondson, well-known identity who continues to hit a good ball. Due to a shortage of girls Gordon Griffen volunteered to fill the number two ladies position and we think he is enjoying his altered status. The Dorsets are captained by Liza Cox, this is largely a young team with players such as Georgi Nikora, Cooper Stevenson, Kristian Blackmore â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lee and Paddy McCraw and they are playing well and trying very hard. Once again the girls were in short supply when the teams were e formed and hence Terry Stevenson n occupies the number one ladiess position. Amy Ladhams from m Berridale kindly agreed to take up p the number four ladies position in n this team and she is really enjoying g her tennis. Finally the Suffolks bringing up p the rear on 12 points, captained d by Rosheen Nikora, they have the e potential to improve their standing g
in the months ahead. Rainer Beisner from Berridale kindly came to the rescue when they were a man short and he is relishing his comeback to tennis. From all accounts and the feedback the Jindabyne â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Berridale night competition is enjoyed greatly by all participants who really appreciate the availability of four courts with lights on three which enables everyone to be home at a reasonable time and assists those players who have to travel some distance. The Berridale Tennis Club members are very pleased with the outcome of the decision to launch the joint competition with Jindabyne and are hopeful that the interaction will continue well into the future and wish their Jindabyne tennis friends every success in their effort to have their courts upgraded. In the meantime they are most welcome at the Berridale courts. Finally a word of appreciation to Chris Redmond and Colin Mould for their assistance in having a light replaced on court three, having flood lights on 10 m poles makes for good tennis but when a bulb gives up the ghost, it raises the difficulty of getting up there to replace it. The Tuesday night social tennis continues until January 28, with the Monaro District Competition resuming on February 1 and the night competition on Monday February 3.

Handicaps tumble with hot scores Cooma Golf report by Garry Atkinson With scores in the 40 point range golfers are finding the conditions quite easy at the moment. Handicaps are tumbling as the extra summer run and preferred lies help scores plummet. Scores this week reflect the conditions and of course some great form by members. A reminder that the daylight saving competition is on every Wednesday afternoon up until 5:30pm and junior golf will be starting up on the first Sunday after school goes back. So what happened last week on the course… On Saturday 41 players hit off in round three of the Summer Cup. Wayne Ryan took out A grade with 41 points, just winning over Brian Searl coming home also with 41 points (one putt gentlemen).
In B grade Mike Carroll had a fabulous 41 points to just win from Bob Ashcroft with 39 points. C grade was won by Mark Kelly with the round of the day, amassing 43 points from Sam Scarlett with 35 points. Ball winners went down to 36 points. Norm Marshall was the closest shot on the fourth and Garry Atkinson was nearest the pin on the 11th. Wednesday saw another lovely day with 36 golfers playing an individual stableford. Norm Marshall took out A grade with 40 points, Tony Monday fired up in B grade with 39 points and Gary Batten hit form to take out C grade with 38 points. Nearest the pins were close affairs with Norm Marshall taking out the ninth hole and Mr Consistency Steve Young (in
great form of late) nearest the pin on the 17th. Ball winners went down to 32 points. On Sunday 21 players hit off in a single stableford medley. Gerard Day had the round of the day with 38 stableford points to take out first place. Second was the consistent Mark Rainsford with 36 points. Ball winners went down to Sean Smith who must be enjoying the holiday break with 32 points. Nearest the pins were not at hand at the time of printing. Next Saturday sees an individual stableford medley being round four of the Summer Cup. On Sunday we have a individual medley stroke and Wednesday there are individual medley stableford on offer for members and visitors so don’t miss another fine week of golf. See you on the greens.

Centuries the order of the day in district cricket
Round one of the Cooma McDonalds two day competition got under way on Saturday in perfect conditions for cricket and ideal conditions to bowl in. The bowlers didn’t get it all their way with several Monaro batsman cashing in on the longer format of the game with three hundreds being scored. Gary Thompson slayed the Jindabyne attack for a quick fire 136 with Dalgety all out for 245 and Jindabyne in reply looking fairly comfortable at 2/150 with Chad Stevens unbeaten on 80. Alpine’s Matt Moxon brought up a 100 in his first game since a major injury delayed the start to his season- Alpine all out for 246. Berridale saw out the day and sat comfortably on 0/36 and in the final match, Coffey’s Zach Smith scoring 113 being well supported by Steve Summerville 70. Coffeys all out for 247 the Cats in reply were 2/77. On Sunday the MDCA Jefferies cup team had a thrilling loss at Rotary with Monaro posting a solid 141 on a very tough rotary wicket with Far South Coast passing the Monaro score in the 48th over with two wickets in hand. Alpine V Berridale at Nijong. Berridale won the toss and elected to bowl in cool overcast conditions. The Alpine got off to a solid start and were 0/30 after nine overs before L Redmond (3/20) who was bowling quite quickly, got a double break through and Alpine were in trouble at 3/36. Redmond should have had a few more wickets including the prized scalp of M Moxon (101) who was put down on his first ball.
Moxon rode his luck early and Berridale gave Moxon every opportunity to find some form with six chances put down before Moxon had reached 40. After a long layoff due to injury, Moxon reached 50 and found some sparkling form as he sent many a ball sailing well over the short Nijong Boundary. Moxon was well supported by Luke Johnson (30) with the pair putting on 66 before M Bruce (3/45) ripped the heart out of the Alpine middle order. With the Alpine at 6/110 at the 30 over mark, a below par score looked on the cards, but Berridale couldn’t keep the pressure on the Alpine batsman with the aid of some sloppy fielding and poor bowling Moxon and Moon put on a handy 81 for the seventh wicket, with Moxon doing the bulk of the damage while J Moon did his best to see out a particularly hostile spell of bowling from A O’Keeffe (1/19). Both Moon and Moxon fell with the score on 191 with A Bartell finally being rewarded after a tough day with the ball with figures of 2/96 not really a true indication of how well he bowled. He was extremely unlucky not to have walked away with four or five wickets. L Fraser (29) and N Boate (22*) provided some much needed tail end runs the pair putting on 53 for the 10th wicket. Alpine all out for 246 in the 63rd over. Berridale had a tricky 17 overs to bat out the day’s play with Hearn and O’Keeffe shelving the attacking shots and played out the 17 overs relatively untroubled and go into next week sitting at 0/36 with 80 overs to chase down a further 210 to win.

The three Ps win district triples title Right: Ron Wainwright. Below: Jindabyne bolwers in action in the district triples on Saturday afternoon.
Brian Seears watches as Tony Brooks bowls.
Cooma Bowling Club was the venue for playing of the District Triples with four matches Saturday morning and three after lunch, which advanced it to the Semi-finals, played Sunday morning and final in the afternoon. Sergio Roncelli, Tony Gray and Guilio D’Amicio ran into a red hot team in Steve Seears, Wayne Lodge and Mel Storta. The latter team ran out to a 21/13 lead, although Guilio’s team won five ends in a row to trail 20/21 with three ends to play but were unable to keep up the good work and went down 30/20. Steve Lapham, Richard Nichols and John Schoon had a real battle with Mario Frezza, Ignazio Mondello and Terry Crocker to lead 12/10 on end 13 but then had to stand aside and watch their opponents win end after end and run out winners 29/18. Col Batten, Bernie Stove and Eric Corby were early leaders against Ron Wainwright, Colin Peuker and Denis Steinfort with the score in their favor15/11 on end 20. Dennis and Co brought the scores level 18/18 with an extra end necessary to decide the match. Four shots for Denis and Co on this gave them victory 22/18. In the final match for Saturday morning, the three Peters, Marsicano, Caldwell and Schroeder were kept honest for the early ends by Vic Weston, Greg Griffen and Tony Butler with the latter holding a slender 8/7 lead after nine ends. From that point the three Peters dominated and ran out winners 30/13. Saturday afternoon previously had a bye with the three Peters being pushed in the early ends against Denis Steinfort’s team but eventually going on to win a place in the semi-final 34/26. John Ruzic, Tony Sutton and Steve Harridan set up a very handy 15/9 lead over Mat Brown, Dave McDonald and Mat Griffith and kept in touch till end 22 but were unable to score again and went down 24/31. The match between Keith Maynard, Brenden Skelly and David Turner v Mario Frezza, Ignazio Mondello and Terry Croker started as many others on the day with both teams playing consistent bowls for the scores to be 10/10 on end 11. At that point David’s team played the best draw bowls and kept on end 19 put the back in contention, trialing 16/20 but were unable to take advantage for David’s team to advance to the Semi-final 27/17. The semi-finals played on Sunday morning saw Steve Seears, W Lodge and Mel Storta against Keith Maynard, Brenden Skelly and David Turner
with the former team setting up a good 15/11/ lead and then keeping David’s team on 11 for six ends before going to win 24/16. Peter Mariscano, Peter Caldwell and Peter Schroeder (the three Ps) were kept honest for 13 ends with score 14/12 in the Peters favour, in their match with Mat Brown, Dave McDonald and Mat Griffiths. Five shots to the Peters on end 14 gave them the boost they needed and went on to win 31/21, to meet Seears, Lodge and Storta in the afternoon final. In front of an appreciative audience, Steve Seears, Mel Storta and Wayne Lodge took to the green to battle with Peter Mariscano, Peter Caldwell and Peter Schroeder with the former team having the better of the scoring in the early stages, with Wayne’s boys leading 11/8 on end 14. The Peters then took control and kept their opponents on 11 for eight ends and themselves put on 13 shots to lead 21/11 on end 21. Six shots to Wayne, Mel and Steve put them right back in the game needing five shots over the remaining three ends to win. Unfortunately for them the Peters scored three shots to run out winners and Champions for 2014 24/17. Congratulations to the winners. Last Wednesday January 15, Ron Waiwright and Denis Steinfort played their match in the Club’s Major Singles with may thanks to Bob Douglas for acting as Marker. Ron scored four shots on the first end and went on with the job to lead 29/4 after just 15 ends and did not let up to win 32/8 after only 20 ends. In a second Major Singles match played on Sunday, Terry Croker was in equally devastating form against Nelson Wallace when he established a 23/2 lead over Nelson and went on to win 31/16. Only two social games over the weekend, both on Sunday. Keith Goodwin, Daphne Buckley and Mark Buckley made a good start against Judy McDonald, Don Jarvis and Jack Sajina when they lead 17/7 on end 13 and came home strongly to win 25/15. Mick Faulkner, Mario Frezza and Paul Cannell were early leaders in there match with Ken Rees, Richard Nichols and Kim Weston, but then faltered to allow their opponents to outscore them to win 17/13. Brian Seears and Paul Schulz were in top form for their match with Tony Brooks and Colin Robertson last Saturday and were untroubled to win 25/11.
