A WORLD-WIDE pandemic is always going to be a challenge, but Main Street Mornington faced it head on. Main Street traders innovated, pivoted and persevered through the lockdowns. Main Street’s “Pay It Forward” program allowed community members to buy vouchers at hospitality venues around the town, who then supplied the vouchers to families in need. It was highly successful and praised for “going to extra mile” to help those struggling through the pandemic.

There are many benefits to becoming a Mermaid THEY come in all shapes and sizes, but they all have the same goals of fitness, friendship and fun. Mornington Mermaids is a swimming group that started early last year, meeting at Fishermans Beach every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 7am for an invigorating, cold water swim and after swim, cafe catch-up.

Organiser Jacky Howgate says the daily dip is not about being fast or even a good swimmer, it’s about the benefits of aqua exercise, cold water and supporting each other. “Not everyone swims, some just float and enjoy the serenity,” she said. “I love each and every one of my ladies and they bring me so

much joy whenever we are together. ” Ms Howgate, who was diagnosed with a benign brain tumour in September 2018, is very much a glass half full kind of woman, and it’s her uplifting attitude and never-ending smile that makes the group gel so well. She said the group had grown quickly and

friendships were cementing, but there was always room for more. “We want to keep spreading the word, as it’s so beneficial to have 15 minutes in the water and the social aspect is just as important,” she said. To get involved either meet at Fishermans Beach or call 0416 860239. Liz Bell

Green wedge politics Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council has restated its preference for the peninsula to be “peri-regional”, a classification it says would protect the green wedge and unlock “the significant economic potential of our region”. The peninsula’s green wedge is one of 12 that effectively form a ring around Melbourne outside the urban growth boundaries. Regional areas have rural conservation zones, with

fewer planning and use protections. The shire’s statement on Friday follows claims by Liberal and Labor politicians that only their party’s views on its planning status are best for the peninsula, with the green wedge now a political battleground. At the moment the peninsula has green wedge zoned areas, and the Liberal Party says a regional classification, with legislative changes, can provide the same “protections”. Nepean Labor MP Chris Brayne told state parliament last week that the late Alan Hunt, a former Liberal planning

minister and father of Flinders MP Greg Hunt, helped establish Melbourne’s green wedge in the 1970s, which was “a key vital planning decision that has [protected the peninsula] from becoming overdeveloped for literally decades”. The Liberals’ regional classification proposal echoes the wishes of business lobby group Committee for Mornington Peninsula, two of whose former members are now standing as Liberal candidates for state and federal parliament. The shire’s (unattributed) state-

ment last week said it too shares “the concerns of [the committee] that the peninsula is disadvantaged by its current metropolitan classification”. In a possibly record-breaking news release (for the eight names it was issued under) from the office of Mr Hunt, the Liberals accused Mr Brayne of having “openly threatened that the Victorian government would act to rescind the Mornington Peninsula Green Wedge if the decision to classify the area as regional is approved”. The “joint” news release from Mr Hunt’s office gave equal billing to

retiring MPs Neale Burgess (Hastings), David Morris (Mornington) and Liberal candidates Zoe McKenzie (Flinders), Sharn Coombes (Dunkley), Sam Groth (Nepean), Briony Hutton (Hastings) and Chris Crewther (Mornington). Ms McKenzie was formerly a director of the Committee for Mornington Peninsula and Ms Hutton its executive officer. The shire’s statement said it was a “clarification” of an “interview” broadcast on radio station 3AW but did not quote the interview or name of anyone involved. Continued Page 13

Doctors suffer bureaucratic hold-up Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au

BALNARRING Medical Centre’s new UK doctor, Dr Mo Mafunga, has been waiting 10 months to confirm her qualifications and get Australian registration and a visa, but she still does not have a provider number and cannot work. Picture: Gary Sissons

MEDICAL practices on the Mornington Peninsula are being turning away new patients as they struggle with staff shortages and bureaucratic delays in recruiting overseas doctors. A Senate inquiry, sitting in Frankston, has heard how practices faced frustrating hurdles in getting the paperwork completed for overseas doctors recruited to work in many priority areas Australia, including the peninsula. This is despite an expected mass early retirement of doctors and nurses after two exhausting years of COVID. Balnarring Medical Centre’s new UK doctor, Dr Mo Mafunga, arrived in Australia on February 18 – after a 10-month process to confirm her qualifications, get Australian registration and a visa – but she still does not have a provider number and cannot work. Practice owners Dr Sarah Romilly and her registered nurse husband Simon Spalding are calling on Health and Aged Care Minister. Flinders MP Greg Hunt, to accelerate the process. Simon Spalding was a witness on Monday 7 March at the Senate inquiry into Provision of general practitioner and related primary health services to outer metropolitan, rural, and regional Australians, held at Frankston Arts Centre. “Our local population is growing, we have been advertising for four to five years for more GPs, and the Mornington Peninsula is in a distribution priority area due to the shortage of GPs,” Dr Romily said. “We tick all the boxes and have recruited a person who has both nursing and medical qualifications, and who has satisfied the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, and the Immigration Department.

“But it has taken months longer than it is supposed to. Our new doctor quit her old job late last year and withdrew her kids from their school before her move to Australia was delayed. “And now, after arriving here, she will wait a further 12-14 weeks without pay to get a provider number so she can start work. Why? Issuing a new provider number to a local doctor is an almost instantaneous process.” It is a similar story at Dromana’s Beachside Doctors, where an experienced UK doctor arrived on 16 October last year but did not get a provider number to start work until 31 January. Owner Dr Paul Heathcote says he has not had a holiday for three years. Dr Romilly has been told by the Health Department that it will look into the experiences of two more UK GPs joining the Balnarring medical centre, to identify roadblocks in the process of overseas recruitment. Mr Spalding said action was needed urgently. “The shortage of GPs is affecting many parts of Australia, including newer population growth areas which are not even recognised as a distribution priority area to recruit overseas GPs, due to a lag in the classification process,” he said. “GPs in the UK are currently being treated like cannon fodder – this a great opportunity for Australia to bring in GPs who are used to a very similar medical system to ours. “But the process needs to be smarter and faster – to have a doctor travel here and sit idle for 12 to 14 weeks is crazy. Especially after the long process to get to that point. Issuing a provider number to a new doctor should be the easy bit, after they’ve satisfied all the other requirements. “If the predicted mass exit of retiring doctors and nurses occurs, Australia needs to be prepared, and should learn from the painful experience after we were slow to order vaccines, and rapid antigen tests.”

Post-lockdown help for families Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THE end of lockdown has for many families not meant the end of the distress endured throughout restrictions and providing care in isolation. But a Mornington-based, not-for-profit disability support provider is reminding families that there is help for the challenges ahead. CEO of Biala Peninsula, David Greenwood, said the provider had more than 320 children under its care across the peninsula and wanted to stress the importance of therapy to help build on the positive strengths of the family unit, and “create a sense of rhythm and routine”. Biala family therapist Elsha Young said many families needing therapeutic support for their child were already feeling isolated and vulnerable, with the mental health of families directly impacting children. Ms Young said the recent cycle of repeat lockdowns meant that parents had to constantly dig deeper, well beyond their comfort zones and invariably, on their own. “Anxieties grew and the flow-on affect upon children often left them and their families exposed, with household tensions amplified,” she said. “During the lockdowns, therapists continued to provide support, but it quickly became obvious that therapists too were having to work within similar parameters of the challenges faced by families. “As one therapist observed, ‘families were already feeling isolated because of their circum-

stances and this was exaggerated because of the lockdowns, so us going into the home when permitted was empowering for all of the family, not just the child’.” Biala social worker Tiana Boyd said faceto-face care delivery was a critical feature of the therapeutic support provided to children, since much of the approach was based around strength-based collaboration. “Yet with schools closed, jobs furloughed or lost, family confidence eroded, finances stressed and needs exacerbated by events, the challenges associated with maintaining routine and structure became that much greater,” she said. “Therapists are now having to respond to postlockdown recovery dynamics, which will not be immediately solved, by far. “For many children, masks have become a symbol of stress. Families think of their own circumstances, not about ‘being all in this together’.” Mrs Young said it was not common for parents with limited access to the services they so desperately needed fearing that they had failed. “And the sense of exposure and vulnerability has been escalated even further, so any response is certainly not an overnight fix,” she said. “Many of us in the community will quickly recover from the disruption through work and lifestyle, but equally, some families who have experienced extreme stress, need to adopt a slow, measured and gradual approach to any readjustment, for the benefit of children and families alike.”

Call to convert grazing land to ‘carbon forest’ AN alliance of community groups wants support to plant a carbon forest on the Parkdale Estate land in Dromana. This proposal would see community members being given the opportunity to invest in their own carbon draw-down project while allowing public access onto the site for compatible activities. The proposal utilises a platform that enables this investment and registers the carbon credits. It also pays for planting the forest. The project would be a leading example in Australia and, while modest in scale, would be a highly visible model for others to follow. “Strategic partners who can add value to the project include the likes of the Habitat Restoration Fund,” Greg Fitzgerald, president of Dromana Rotary Club, said. “With the HRF, we have undertaken significant replanting and weed elimination to several sites around the peninsula, including on the adjacent Hillview Reserve. “The community carbon forest will showcase how we can bring about improved habitat and environmental outcomes in general, and it will do it quickly.” The group says “engagement by government” is the missing component to having the proposal considered. “This land was donated by the Ross Trust for public conservation and recreation 40 years ago,” Simon Brooks, Dromana Association president, said.

Planting support: Members of Dromana Rotary, Dromana Football and Netball Club, Dromana RSL, Australian Conservation Foundation, Red Hill Riders, Dromana Association, Dromana Industrial Association and Peninsula Mountain Park Committee want to plant a “carbon forest” at Dromana.

Picture: Supplied “For most of that time the care of the land has rested with grazier Pat Clancy who has run cattle under a lease as outgoing land manager Parks Victoria has not had the resources to replant or allow public access.” The group says it “fears” the land will be handed over to Mornington Peninsula Shire to manage, “the latest in a line of processes with no outcome in sight”. “Unfortunately, the key community stakeholders do not have confidence in the shire to collaboratively deliver any project in any reasonable time frame,” Mr Brooks, a former councillor, said. “As with many other agencies and organisations COVID has had a significant impact on the shire and its ability to plan, coordinate and deliver community projects. “We wish it wasn’t so however, in our collective experience, we see examples of many years of significant strategies and plans which the shire

then struggles or fails to deliver.” Mr Fitzgerald said an example of this was shire’s failure to implement a master plan adopted in 2010 for the adjacent Hillview Reserve. “We have had a successful partnership with Parks Victoria over many years, yet we cannot get the shire to implement a relatively simple roadside trail signage roll-out that is agreed to and ready to go,” Toby Meredith, Red Hill Riders president, said. “We support the carbon forest initiative because it is doable, is a plan and aligns with better land management including support of recreational activities on the hill.” Mr Brooks said the groups had not been given an opportunity to discuss the forest plan “despite multiple attempts at engagement with the minister, state government public servants and our Nepean MP Chris Brayne”. “It feels to us that the state is just glad to hand this over to someone else to worry about and seems to trust

that the shire is best placed to deliver something for community,” he said. “We have voiced our concerns to the shire’s CEO [John Baker] in a letter co-signed with key stakeholders, regarding the commitment and capacity of the shire to deliver and to work with us. “However, as with other correspondence, we have not had a response.” Dromana Association member and former mayor Graham Pittock was “extremely disappointed” over the lack of response to the community’s concerns “and to the complete lack of progression of multiple strategies and plans for this area over many years”. “At least we have managed to speak with state government bureaucrats who have been managing the handover process, however they do not appear to have any power or influence to change what appears to be a set process underway.” Mr Brooks said the group’s early

concerns about lack of consultation over management of the land “have not been addressed.” He said the shire had dropped “budgeted monies” for pre-feasibility studies for the land from its mid-year budget reforecast. “They are apparently to be re-deployed in the next financial year. “What sort of message does this send to the community about the commitment and capacity of the shire to develop this land for community?. “In the meantime, we have a plan and we have the means to do something of worth; something that ticks multiple boxes in terms of community–led actions; an amazing transformative example of local action on carbon draw-down that is self-funded, increases bio-diversity and adds much-needed planned public recreational space.” Critically, it places the community on the site as the Ross Trust intended. “We do not trust that this land will always be protected for public use and we are aware of what its value would be subdivided for housing,” Mr Brooks said. “There is an emerging pattern of public land being rezoned and soldoff for development, including public conservation and recreation zoned land parcels such as this one. “We have asked that the state government pause the process to hand over the management of this land to the shire and to consider the community proposal.” Keith Platt

Intro to permaculture

CHATTY Cafe volunteers got together last week for an afternoon tea catch-up. Picture: Gary Sissons

Time to chat - a convivial social experiment Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au A SOCIAL experiment started in the United Kingdom to connect people though a coffee and a chat has arrived on the Mornington Peninsula. The Chatty Cafe scheme, which is now operating throughout Australia, aims to get people talking to build to social skills and connections within the community, and help to reduce social isolation and loneliness. Volunteer Mornington Peninsula coordinator Jacky Howgate said the concept was just starting on the peninsula, but already a variety of venues had signed on to participate, and the team of volunteer “chatters” who host a table and help conversation along

was growing. British founder Alex Hoskyn came up with the idea after going to a local cafe with her four-month-old son and seeing several people - including an elderly woman and a disabled person and his support worker - who looked like they needed conversation starters. While thinking about the positive impact people could have on each other if they sat together, Ms Hoskyn developed the concept of Chatty Cafe, which now has more than 900 venues in the UK. Ms Howgate took on the role of peninsula coordinator last year under the guidance of Chatty Cafe Australia, and said she was “delighted” so far with the response from venues. “I have also been lucky enough to have my good friend Gaynor Ridley

come on board as my volunteer manager and we are working hard as a team to generate momentum,” she said. Eight peninsula venues have signed up to participate on certain days and times and Ms Howgate said she was hoping to encourage others to come on board. Discussions are being held to involve service clubs and businesses. “I am hoping that some schools will also consider signing up to the scheme – not to encourage their students to drink coffee necessarily, but to promote friendship and conversation in the playground,” Ms Howgate said. “As a teacher, this is a particular area of interest for me. I am also hoping to approach retirement villages and hopefully aged care facilities in

due course, COVID-permitting.” Ms Howgate said COVID had affected a number of the peninsula’s commercial venues and so the main focus in recent months had been community houses, libraries and other community venues. “I am thrilled to have Mornington Information and Community Support Centre sign up to the scheme, with centre manager Stuart Davis-Meaghan last week opening the meeting room and welcoming the first visitors for coffee and a chat,” she said. “As with Mornington Community House, there is no charge for coffee and this means that we are truly able to invite and involve everyone in the scheme.” To find out about becoming a volunteer or suggest venues contact Jacky

All things Indigenous at festival THIS year’s Womin Djeka Balnarring Ngargee festival is shaping up to be one of the Mornington Peninsula’s finest celebrations of Indigenous culture and a familyfriendly community event. The annual festival began five years ago to recognise and honour First Peoples cultures and involve the community in caring for and learning with country. The festival is presented by Balnarring Pre-School, joint winner in 2021 of the Narragunnawali Award which recognises outstanding reconciliation initiatives in schools and early learning centres. Committee member Kate Rennie said the day would feature a diversity of sounds and cultural experiences with singers, multiple First Nations musicians, performers, dance groups, cultural workshops and market stalls. Ms Rennie said all performers shared a commitment to reconciliation and respect for coming together and sharing cultural heritage through music, dances, arts and crafts, stories, and experiences. The festival will open with John Wayne Parsons, a Yugarra and Ugar high baritone who enjoys all types of music and has provided backing vocals for various artists including Uncle Archie Roach’s album Into the Blood Stream, and was a member of the gospel choir, The Cafe at the Gates of Salvation. Welcome to Country will be delivered by N’arwee’t Dr Carolyn Briggs AM, a Boon Wurrung senior elder and the chairperson and found-

Police patrol

With Liz Bell

Busy time for highway patrol

New police chief takes charge THE new police superintendent for the Mornington Peninsula and Frankston areas, Fiona Bock, right, may be a newcomer to the top job and the peninsula, but she has a pretty firm handle on where police priorities lie. After 33 years of police experience across a range of areas including counter terrorism and the sexual crimes squad, Superintendent Bock has a strong focus on proactive policing, and is looking forward to building relationships with the peninsula’s diverse communities. She says that means getting police out into the community, building associations with community groups, schools and residents, and fostering trust between police and community. Some “trends” have already come to her attention, such as the annual schoolies chaos that can present a danger to young people and to the community, graffiti and youth crime. But, confident police are making progress in reducing crime and keeping communities safe, Superintendent Bock says the focus for her will be working with communities, getting to know the issues, and “talk early, engage early” with the people who are likely to come to police attention.

SOMERVILLE Highway Patrol was kept busy over the long weekend as part of Operation ARID. Before members could grab a morning coffee on Saturday they had already impounded three vehicles in under four hours. Around 7am a man, 36, man was intercepted on Mornington-Tyabb Road, Moorooduc, and found to be suspended from driving after a drink-driving incident last month. His vehicle was impounded, and he will face a charge of driving while suspended. At 8.40am the same highway patrol unit intercepted a 29-year-old man on Hodgins Road, Hastings. He was found to have been unlicenced since 2013. He further tested positive to a roadside drug test. The vehicle was impounded, and he will face charges of driving while unlicenced and drug driving. At 10.15am a woman, 46, intercepted in Bay Street, Frankston was found to be suspended from driving due to accumulated demerit points. Her vehicle was impounded, and she will also face a charge of driving while suspended. All three will front the Frankston Magistrates Court at a later date.

Witnesses sought Sommerville Highway Patrol has appealed for witnesses after a driver failed to stop at a breath testing site and subsequently crashed, leaving three people injured in Baxter on 7 March. Officers were working the site on Moorooduc Highway and waving cars in when an officer signalled for the driver of a Jeep Wrangler to enter the site about 6.50pm. The driver allegedly ignored the officer’s direction and sped off, narrowly missing a police member who had to jump out of the way. ADVERTISEMENT Police say the driver of the 2018 wagon continued towards the Sages Road intersection, where he ran a red light and collided with another vehicle. The driver, 46, of the wagon, from Mount

Eliza, and his 10-year-old passenger were both taken to hospital with injuries. The woman driver, 53, of the other car, who had to be cut from the wreckage, was also taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. It is expected the male driver of the wagon will be interviewed by police at a later date in relation to conduct endangering life, failing to stop on police direction and other traffic matters. Anyone who witnessed the incident or has dashcam footage can call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report to crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Identities sought POLICE are seeking public help to identify three men, right, who may be able to assist with inquiries into an assault on 14 January. It is alleged three men approached a person sitting alone on the footpath on McLaren Place, Mornington at 10.55pm. Police say that without provocation the person was assaulted and sustained a fractured nose and facial injuries. Investigators are hoping to identify the three men captured on CCTV. Anyone with information is urged to contact Senior Constable Avion at Mornington Police on 5970 4900, Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or file a confidential report at bddy.me/34FTHx2.

Christmas shots MORNINGTON Peninsula CIU officers have arrested and charged two men over a driveby shooting in Illowa Street, Mornington, at about 4.35am on Christmas day (Saturday 25 December). A 29-year-old Tyabb man has been charged with reckless conduct endangering persons, prohibited person possess firearm, theft of motor car and numerous other charges. A 46-year-old Mornington man was charged with possess drug of dependence.

Contractors called in for the big clean-up Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au CONTRACTORS hired by Mornington Peninsula Shire are struggling to keep up with demand to clear debris from last year’s storms. The shire’s infrastructure services manager Tom Haines-Sutherland said there were still thousands of clean-up jobs to be completed despite the shire having “committed every resource we have to the clean-up”. Mr Haines-Sutherland said there had many requests for help to clear debris and damage and the shire had brought in contractors to help, alongside the 12 crews already working on the clean-up. “We obviously couldn’t get to every job at once, so have had to prioritise

the work based on the level of risk and the impact on the community,” he said. However, that situation did not sit well with elderly Rye resident David Bierwirth, who said he had contacted the shire “many times” over the mess left on his property from last November’s storms and heavy rains only to be told at one stage he should clear it himself. To make matters worse, Mr Bierwirth – who suffers from a debilitating health condition - said he came home one day last week to find his neighbour’s property had been cleared of debris and the council had marked his job as “completed”, despite the remaining piles of debris and fallen trees. Mr Bierwirth said he had written to the shire’s CEO John Baker when the

storms brought down council trees and deposited mounds of debris on properties and footpaths, to no avail. “I've been trying to get the mess of their rubbish cleared for almost five months now. I'm 70, my health is fragile, and I am disabled, but they say I can clear this myself if I do it and pay for it at the tip as well, even though it is their rubbish,” he said. “Apart from the debris, which covers more than 20 metres of nature strip, we now have grass and weeds growing among the branches, now almost a metre high and the grassed nature strip will now need to be re-sowed. “The area is a fire hazard, having dried out over summer, and we have seen no action whatsoever from anyone from council. We have had excuse after

excuse from council staff. “My first email communication was answered by saying they will get back to me in around 12 business days. What kind of service is it when you can't speak to anyone in charge or get any answers?” Mr Haines-Sutherland said he acknowledged the frustration felt by some members of the community and wanted to “thank everyone for their patience with the time this work is taking”. “The good news is we’ve completed 80 per cent of the work and we expect the remainder to be finished by the end of March,” he said. Ms Bierwirth said that after contacting The News, contractors cleaned up the mess outside his property on Thursday.

Paving the way for dining out Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au WORK is already underway to make part of the footpath a 172-seat outside dining area for Sorrento’s Continental Hotel despite there being no agreement on leasing costs. Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors last week authorised CEO John Baker to reopen negotiations with the hotel despite their decision in December to $38,000 for the first year, $45,000 in the second and $50,000 in the third year. The hotel, through its lawyers, has rejected the lease conditions and “sought exclusive possession of the licence area”. Cr David Gill was the only councillor against the Mr Baker going back to the hotel to try and reach agreement. Cr Gill said the council had “already made a decision [on 14 December] and if the [hotel] doesn’t like it, they can walk away”. “[Setting the lease amounts] was a council decision, not a negotiation,” he said. Cr Gill said council officers had originally suggested council charge half of what it eventually decided. “Council decided that wasn’t a good enough. The outcome should be a fair recompense to our community for giving up public land.” “The hitch in all of this is the officers came back originally with a much smaller lease amount and then we’re going back to negotiate again - the outcome’s fairly obvious to me. “We shouldn’t be negotiating. We

CAR parks have gone and the footpath is baricaded, but the Continental Hotel is yet to agree on a price it is willing to pay Mornington Peninsula Shire for use of the public land. Picture: Yanni should be saying ‘do you want it? This is the price’. “You don’t ever get to halve the lease amount on a house. There seems to be a belief we’re the bunnies. “We’ve already made up our minds but [now] might change on the basis [the hotel] might walk away. I just don’t accept it.” Cr Susan Bissinger thought it “a good idea to have negotiations go on”. “Sometimes things get lost in emails and all that kind of stuff,” she said. “There needs to be some kind of faceto-face negotiations and see what the best outcome for the community is.” Nepean Ratepayers’ Association president Colin Watson, in a letter to

Mr Baker, said the shire was “in the unenviable position” of having the hotel refuse to agree to the lease. Mr Watson accused council officers of providing councillors with “incorrect and contradictory” information about the legalities of the hotel occupying the footpath. “The NRA urges all councillors to consider very carefully the implications of the refusal of the developer to agree to a proposed licence fee and the seeking of exclusive possession of the licence area,” Mr Watson wrote. He said the proposed $38,000 to $50,000 annual fees were “well below market value”. “The [shire] is well within its rights

to deny the exclusive possession of a community asset and can demand that the developer make good by returning the area to seven car parking spaces and footpath,” Mr Watson stated. “Should the developer again refuse to pay a discounted fee and enter into the licence to occupy then we urge all councillors to issue an order to remove the outdoor dining, return the seven parking spaces and make good the footpath.” Councillors who voted for Mr Baker to resume negotiations with the Continental Hotel were Antonella Celi, Kerri McCafferty, Sarah Race, Susan Bissinger, Lisa Dixon and the mayor, Anthony Marsh.

Councils agree to split the bill for meals service RISING costs have led to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council entering into a $1 million meals on wheels service partnership with Frankston Council. The shire has run a meals on wheels program for more than 30 years, producing around 75,000 meals annually, while supporting welfare and independent living. Community services manager Jo Bradshaw said costs had been rising due to a steady increase in new clients and so the shire joined forces with Frankston in a joint tender for the service. “This is expected to make the service more cost-effective and ensure a more competitive outcome for both councils,” she said. “Through this joint tender we have been able to provide value for money to our ratepayers, while also prioritising support for local businesses.” The tender was released on 12 June 2021 and the new contract will begin 1 July. “Supporting our community by delivering quality, cost-effective services is a key focus of our council and wellbeing plan,” Ms Bradshaw said.

Free legal forum for seniors INCREASING demand for advice on elder-related legal issues has prompted Peninsula Community Legal Centre to launch a free monthly elder law service. The forum, on 18 March at safety Beach Community Centre, is supported by Mornington Peninsula Shire and will address some of the most common legal issues affecting older people. PCLC chief executive Jackie Galloway said many life events associated with ageing involved legal issues. “We are holding this community event and launching our elder law service to meet a steadily rising demand for advice on elder law problems,” she said. Victorian seniors’ commissioner Gerard Mansour will open the event. John Corcoran from Russell Kennedy Lawyers, who advises leading providers of aged care and retirement living, will talk about the impact of the royal commission into aged care. Speakers from PCLC and the ANZ bank will talk about financial scams and financial abuse, as well as powers of attorney and estate planning. Ms Galloway said PCLC encouraged seniors wanting to learn more about the tips and traps of proper planning for their retirement and decision-making as they age to attend. There will be a chance to ask questions in a from the panel of experts. Morning tea will be provided. The forum is free, but bookings are essential. PCLC’s special elder law service operates on the third Friday of the month from its office in Rosebud. Elder law focuses on protecting older people’s rights and assets. It is also about ensuring that a person’s wishes are respected at a time when they are vulnerable. Ms Galloway said common legal issues associated with ageing included wills and estate planning; delegation of decision-making capacity regarding financial and healthcare decisions; aged care facilities and retirement villages, and guardianship issues. Free advice on these elder-specific issues, as well as more general civil law questions is provided at the clinics by lawyers from PCLC and volunteers from Russell Kennedy lawyers. The legal matters and ageing forum will be held 10.30am to 12.30pm on Friday 18 March at the Safety Beach Community Centre, 185 Marine Drive, Safety Beach.

Camp at the point

WORK has started on a $4.5 million camp ground at Point Nepean National Park on the lawn outside the historic Quarantine Station and will be designed for people new to camping. The camp ground will include pre-pitched tents on platforms, with facilities including a camp kitchen and toilets to be provided in existing Quarantine Station buildings. Parks Victoria is also seeking tenders for a project to provide visitors with “stories of the park”. One option being considered is for interpretive trails and audio and video installations at park buildings to explain its “living” Aboriginal culture and natural, military and quarantine histories. The campground and the storytelling projects are part of the 2018 Point Nepean master plan, designed “to protect and celebrate the park’s special natural and cultural values”. Completed parts of the master plan include making Defence Road safer and bicycle access and new visitor facilities in the Quarantine Station precinct including seating, picnic and barbecues, shelters and drinking water fountains. Works on the camp ground are expected to be completed by the middle of the year. Details: parks.vic.gov.au/projects

Labor’s $10m for sports promise

Green light for road works

THE Federal Labor Party has made an election promise to commit $10 million towards upgrading Emil Madsen Reserve in Mount Eliza. The reserve is the largest sports precinct in Mornington Peninsula Shire and services Mount Eliza and neighbouring areas. It is home to the Mount Eliza Junior Football Club, Mount Eliza Soccer Club, Mount Eliza Football Netball Club and Mount Eliza Cricket Club - some of the biggest sporting clubs in the region, Emil Madsen Reserve has almost 2000 people who use it on a regular basis. Shadow Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Minister Catherine King said the facilities were outdated and overdue for an update and did not properly cater to the emerging generation of girls and women wanting to play sport. Through the development of its master plan Mornington Peninsula Shire has recommended more than 40 separate but interconnected projects to increase participation and create a multifunctional and highquality sporting and recreation venue. Key projects include the construction of a new east pavilion, new west pavilion and an upgrade of the existing pavilion on oval 2. The masterplan also provides for the creation of a district level play space and skate park. Ms King says Labor is committed to partnering with the shire to deliver better facilities that meet the community needs. “Sport plays such an important role in our lives. This investment will mean more kids, more families, and importantly more girls and women can get involved in sport and involved with their local community,” she said. MP for Dunkley Peta Murphy said the project would benefit some of the largest sporting clubs in the region by creating a high quality and multifunctional centre. “Over the past few years we have seen major redevelopments of other reserves in our region, now it’s Mount Eliza’s turn,” she said.

THE state government has given the green light to the upgrade of the intersection of Forest Drive and Nepean Highway, Mount Martha three years after the federal government offered to pay for it. Flinders MP Greg Hunt said the federal government had committed more than $20 million to the intersection, with work now scheduled to start in 2023. The work will include traffic lights across Nepean Highway, a signalised pedestrian crossing, footpaths connecting the intersection’s bus stops and realignment of the driveway opposite Forest Drive. Mr Hunt said calls to Improve the intersection had been the subject of “countless community campaigns” since 2014, when VicRoads was petitioned to install a roundabout or traffic lights, following the death of a 91-year-old man injured in a crash. Mr Hunt said the cost of the upgrade had been met by the federal government’s urban congestion fund. On Friday, Mr Hunt said that he was pleased to see the state government getting on with the project but accused it of failing a commitment to start construction in 2021. The project can be reviewed at vicroads.vic.gov.au/planning-andprojects/melbourne-road-projects/ forest-drive-and-nepean-highwayintersection-upgrade

The political wedge Continued from Page 1 The news release from Mr Hunt’s office said classifying the peninsula as regional would “secure regional funding for regional problems”. However, the 2018 Liberal candidate for Nepean, Russell Joseph, said anyone wanting the peninsula to be classified regional “should be careful of what they wish for, and ensure the baby isn’t being thrown out with the bathwater”. “I have not heard from any regional area about a pot of gold being given to them from state or federal governments because they’re regional,” Mr Joseph, a director of the consultancy Strategic Policy Advice Victoria, said. He said funding opportunities for being classed as part of metropolitan Melbourne had “never been fully exploited”. “We have a second rate road network, education, public transport and power supplies, and being regional could cast that die for even longer. “All of this is missing the point, which is that the peninsula’s infrastructure is underdone and undercooked. “There’s no evidence that just changing from metro to regional will solve these problems.” Mr Russell said it was “hopeless to argue” for the peninsula to be regional because it endured the same lockdowns as Melbourne during the pandemic: “That is a health issue, not a planning issue.” He said the Committee for Mornington. Peninsula had commissioned a report which recommended regional status, but warned “people should remember, he who pays the piper picks the tune”. “This should be opened up for a broader debate,” he said. Mr Brayne said that some of the Liberal candidates had changed their “language” since he had “spoken out” about the need to retain the peninsula’s metropolitan status and its “sacred

green wedge”. “The line they now use is, ‘We will make the Mornington Peninsula regional while maintaining green wedge protections’. This is sort of like saying, ‘We want to get rid of the monarchy while also we want to keep the Queen’. It does not work, long term, actively pursuing a regional status.” Mornington Liberal MP David Morris said planning schemes were easily amended. “It’s not complicated… To suggest it’s too complex, or that the green wedge will lose its protection, is just plain wrong.”

Health charity’s sudden closure THOUSANDS of Mornington Peninsula and Frankston members of the Peninsula Ostomy Association will be forced to seek ostomy services elsewhere, after the association’s shock temporary closure. The POA, which in 2019/20 had a turnover of $4 million and around 2000 members on its books, has closed its doors until further notice. The association is a non-government self-help organisation with a coordinator, assisted by voluntary helpers, some of whom have a stoma (surgical opening in the body), or are family or friends of ostomates. Earlier this year members received a letter notifying them of a special general meeting to pass a resolution to transfer assets - including a BMW and a Mornington storage shed - to a volunteer. Legal advice was sought, and the meeting was cancelled, and the assets were not transferred. The POA is a registered charity, governed by

the rules and regulations set out under the Associations Incorporations Reform Act It is believed the Ostomy Association of Melbourne has become involved and supported the transfer and running of the POA program. According to insiders, there is still a skeleton service provided as other issues are sorted out and it is believed the federal health department hopes the POA’s Allenby Street, Frankston premises can still be used in some capacity for health services in the community. Under the Act the POA must hold a ‘winding up’ general meeting. One member, who wanted to remain anonymous, said the closure of the POA was a “tragic loss of a 40-year, long-standing association and not-for-profit charity community organisation “ that provided support to more than 2000 ostomates in and on the peninsula and Frankston areas”.

WHAT’S NEW...

Want to learn about backyard hens? THE growing popularity of owning backyard hens has largely been due to families wanting to become more self-sustainable. So why is keeping backyard hens so good for your family? Well, hens make for fantastic pets! Talking Hens breed of hens are Hy-line Browns which are extremely friendly and placid. They love company and like nothing more than to spend time interacting with their owners. Talking Hens hear lots of entertaining stories from our customers such as their hens going on school runs, on swings with the kids and happily jumping up onto their laps. Good egg-laying breeds like their Hy-Line also quickly pay for themselves by providing your family with highly nutritious and delicious eggs throughout the year. Their eggs are high in protein and minerals but low in calories. You also have peace of mind knowing exactly how your hens are treated and what food they have eaten. Of course, you can’t get more “local” food than what you get from your own backyard! When combined with a vegetable garden, your family becomes far more selfsufficient and able to live more sustainably. If you really had to avoid social contact, your hens and vegetables could keep your household well fed over the long-term. Hen ownership also teaches children some important, practical lessons about life. Not only do they need to be responsible for feeding and providing water for their hens but they must collect eggs daily and keep the coop clean and safe. Excess eggs can also be sold or given away to friends and neighbours which is a great way of benefiting others in your local community. Talking Hens are holding their third annual Open Weekend on the 19 and 20 of March 2022 from 10am to 4pm. It’s a great chance to visit the farm and see what keeping backyard chickens is all about. There will be a range of fun activities for the kids such as a petting zoo, face painting, craft activities, presentation on backyard hens and more! Come and visit Talking Hens.

SUNDAY

SEVEN, 7pm

TROPPO

ABC TV, 8.30pm

This week marks the halfway point of this enjoyable homegrown crime drama, which unabashedly taps into tropes and formulas. After all, there’s a reason why the disgraced ex-cop and eccentric private investigator are recurring characters. The scenic, unforgiving setting in outback NT doesn’t hurt, either, adding another sense of otherness to the mystery. Tonight, PI with a shady past Ted (Thomas Jane) and Amanda (Nicole Chamoun) ﬁnd their investigation getting more diﬃcult.1

SUNDAY

KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE

7MATE, 8.30pm

Colin Firth (right) plays Harry Hart, a veteran secret agent tasked with showing young recruit Gary “Eggsy” Unwin (Taron Egerton) the ropes. But it wouldn’t be an action ﬂick without a bad guy – enter Samuel L. Jackson as an evil genius intent on wreaking havoc. Michael Caine, Mark Strong and ark Hamill also make an appearance in this worthy comic book adaptation.

MONDAY

LA BREA

NINE, 9pm

If tuning into a series that helps you forget the headlines and news is a high priority, this American science ﬁction drama could be your remedy. Just beware: it’ll probably make your head spin. So far, the story of two families’ lives torn apart by a massive sinkhole in LA – which also happens to be a portal – has thrilled viewers. But it’s so over the top, weakly acted and confusingly written that it’s a sure-ﬁre distraction. Tonight, a super storm causes chaos, while Gavin (Eoin Macken) embarks on a journey into his past, which might be the key to saving his family in the present. It’s exhausting, in a diverting way.

On the home front, Adam Dovile is armed with front door tips to create an inviting home entrance, while Johanna Griggs (left) goes on a tour of an inspiring quick and simple DIY cabin.

Shire and police to thank for ‘returning park to the community’ I would like to pay a tribute to the Mornington Peninsula Shire and the local police. Earlier this year I reported bad behaviour and damage being done to the play and picnic equipment in Morell Reserve, Mornington. I visited the police to ask for advice, especially regarding the drug use and other activities I had seen being committed by youngsters who appeared to be no more than 13 to15 years old. The police, who were totally overextended at the time, suggested I phone 000 as these matters are considered criminal behaviour. The graffiti and damage were a matter for the shire to handle. It was our shire who organised visits to the park to repeatedly clean up ongoing damage and graffiti, even installing a warning notice to perpetrators regarding video surveillance and replacing the damaged picnic table and bench seats. The police sent cars past the area whenever they could and spoke to the groups of kids in the park on quite a number of occasions. It has had an immediate and positive effect. Slowly, our park is being returned to the community. Once again parents bring their children here to use the play equipment and families bring picnics to enjoy the shade of the great oak. The new table already has some graffiti on it, but only a small amount. More importantly, teenagers climb the great oak rather than using its shelter for inappropriate behaviour. During this time, I used a free app on my phone, called Snap, Send, Solve, to photograph and send messages to the nearest local authority regarding issues needing attention. The shire always responded immediately and acted within a given timeline. I’d recommend it to anyone in the community with similar problems to mine. Sue McCarthy, Mornington

Visitors to pay Mornington Peninsula Shire is investigating paid parking for tourists (“Pay to Park” Letters 8/3/22). This would help pay for additional services, such as extra bins and bin collections in public areas over the summer period. There is absolutely no suggestion that the shire implement paid parking for residents or ratepayers. Anthony Marsh, mayor Mornington Peninsula Shire Council

Committee applauded Congratulations to the Committee for Mornington Peninsula (CfMP) business lobby group for coming around to agreeing with the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council on a staged electrified train line extension from Frankston to Langwarrin, not Baxter. This will help to protect our green wedge around Baxter. Hastings will still be the preferred end of line station, which will help to promote industry and provide local jobs in a major activity centre. Also, well done to the CfMP for having two Liberal Party pre-selected federal and state election candidates from its executive. David Gill, Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Red Hill Ward

Support Ryman There is a huge downside risk to heritage and conservation posed by the inclusion of the Ryman property [in Mount Eliza] in this otherwise commendable C270morn zoning amendment (“April deadline to ‘save the green wedges’” The News 8/3/22). Some facts: n Moondah is a Victorian 42-room mansion built by James Grice in 1888. It is in desperate need of repair – this will cost $10m – or this priceless part of the Mornington Peninsula’s heritage will be lost forever. n Ryman spent $38m to buy this severely degraded property from Melbourne University in good faith. After Ansett ran a public hotel in the mansion, it was used as an education centre from 1957, most recently as the Mount Eliza Business School. The current zoning permits its use as a retirement village. This rezoning proposal is a cynical attempt to rewrite history. As Ryman wait for its permit to build, it is doing its best to prevent vandalism and decay. It has spent $800,000 restoring the gatehouse. How do

we feel about plundering $40m from a respected aged care provider in our community? n The Ryman village will have less footprint than the existing business school’s built form, as the shambles of outbuildings will be demolished. The site will become a jewel in the crown of this beautiful neighbourhood and a blessing to many senior citizens as they move into the care of this retirement home and enjoy their twilight years with the dignity they deserve. n No effort has been made by Ryman’s objectors to explore win-win options that will add amenity, conservation, jobs and care to shire residents – and the opportunities are immense if there were good faith and goodwill to consult. Frank and Jacquie Hoogenraad, Patterson Lakes

Mud-flinging MP How typical of [Flinders MP Greg Hunt] to be flinging mud (“Australia’s ‘laziest MP’” Letters 8/3/22). His comments would help the incoming candidates and not perturb him as he sails into the sunset with his parliamentary pension and maybe an offer of a diplomatic position. Google says politicians sit 50 to 60 days a year. Add in a few shaking hand and kissing baby days and it doesn’t add up to many days for their incredible salaries. I can see why our councillors are looking to the future to climb the political ladder. All at taxpayer and ratepayers’ expense. I guess somebody has to do it. Judi Loughridge, Rosebud

Missed opportunity Flinders MP Greg Hunt, a senior cabinet minister in the Coalition government, had an opportunity to discuss significant issues in the lead up to the federal election expected in May. For example, national security, climate change, response to national disasters, floods and bushfires, integrity in government, NDIS funding, COVID-19 mitigation strategies financial and therapeutic. Instead, Mr Hunt indulged in a vituperative ad hominem attack on Nepean MP Chris Brayne (“Australia’s ‘laziest MP’” Letters 8/3/22). Given the serious issues facing our country surely the electorate of Flinders deserves better than this? That Greg Hunt went down this path is instructive, and I am sure your readers will draw their own conclusions as to why he did so. Geoff Hilton, Mount Martha

Bipartisanship need I was very disappointed to see Flinders MP Greg Hunt name calling and making assertions that Nepean MP Chris Brayne is putting people’s lives at risk regarding the needed upgrade to the Jetty Road intersection with the Mornington Peninsula Freeway (“Federal money outstanding for overpass” The News 8/3/22). That intersection has been an issue for a long time, in fact my ex-partner was involved in a car collision there nine years ago while taking our children to school. Thankfully, no one was injured in that collision, but I know there were many before and have been many after. With 21 years’ experience as a federal politician, I would hope Mr Hunt knows by now that people don’t want to see him insulting political opponents but would rather see him, as a senior politician, show bipartisanship in removing this dangerous intersection. Craig Thomson, Rye

Glass house lesson I would simply say to [Flinders MP Greg] Hunt that “People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones” (“Australia’s ‘laziest MP’” Letters 8/3/22). I see his performance as a federal minister during the COVID-19 pandemic as being nothing short of an utter disgrace. It is with relief that we, the Australian people, look forward to your imminent retirement. Les Watson, Bittern

Economic wellbeing A simple enough question, surely? If, as Treasurer, Josh Frydenberg says, “the economy is doing so well” and I’m paying more at the supermar-

ket and for petrol and all other household bills, despite the $10 increase in my pension, who is really doing well? Treasurer Josh has said the pre-election budget at the end of this month will contain more money and measures to support women’s economic security, safety and health. A genderequal world, free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination? Chooks with their heads cut off springs to mind. Excuse me for being cynical. Cliff Ellen, Rye

Facts ‘distorted’ I see Flinders MP Greg Hunt calling Nepean MP Chris Brayne lazy over the Jetty Road overpass as a distortion of the facts as the federal money has not been made available: standard operating procedure (“Australia’s ‘laziest’ MP” Letters 8/3/22). Deaths of four women at Doomadgee hospital, Queensland is within Mr Hunt’s health ministerial responsibility, but report after report prompted no action (“Heart Failure” Four Corners, ABC TV 7/10/22). Children dying from an illness not seen in white Australia for decades and Health Minister Greg Hunt nowhere to be seen. The hospital issue is only the tip of the iceberg. After care is non-existent: Been going on for decades with no efforts to improve it so long as hidden under the radar. His written statement to Four Corners was political gobbledygook. He wouldn’t appear when requested. We know that this federal government is really good at promising money, for example, $5 billion disaster fund barely spent, $2 billion bushfire recovery fund, with many still waiting for support and most of which went to Liberal electorates. When it comes to pork this government is quick on its feet when allocating and spending to marginal liberal electoral seats. Perhaps seeing the writing on the wall Mr Hunt is retiring with a high pension - $200,000 with an amazing amount of other retirement perks that we pay for, including free “non-commercial” domestic and family travel. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Money ‘on the table’ The federal government has made $75 million available to the Victorian state government since 2019 for the Jetty Road, Rosebud project, which was confirmed in the 2019-20 federal budget (“Federal money outstanding for overpass” The News 8/3/22). This comprises three components - $60 million for the full construction of an overpass at Jetty Road, $10 million for immediate roundabout metering and pedestrian operated signal upgrades and $5 million to install noise reduction barriers along the Mornington Peninsula Freeway. This funding has been available to the Victorian government since 2019. Since then, the state government has only sought to access to $3.5 million of this funding to begin a planning phase. To state that federal money remains outstanding is completely false. It is deeply concerning that the State MP for Nepean, Chris Brayne, continues to stand in the way of progress and development on the Mornington Peninsula. There has been $20.5 million committed to upgrade the intersections of Uralla Road and Forest Drive with Nepean Highway and $225 million for the electrification of the Stony Point rail line from Frankston to Baxter. Mr Brayne and the state government have refused to utilise this Commonwealth support for state infrastructure projects and get on with the job. In relation to Mr Brayne’s claims about Australia’s COVID-19 vaccine rollout – Australia has one of the highest vaccination rates in the world and lowest rates of loss of life, accompanied by low job loss rates as a result of the pandemic. It is a matter of public record that I wrote to Pfizer on 10 May 2020 and negotiations to procure their vaccines - should they pass all the necessary safety approvals - commenced from then. Any claim by Mr Brayne to the contrary is completely false and a diversion from the issue at hand. Greg Hunt, Minister for Health and Aged Care and MP for Flinders

Road concerns I’m concerned about the new child learning centre at the top end of Strachans Road and Nepean

Highway, Mornington. Bus stops on each side along with cars parking make it very dangerous in Strachans Road or entering and leaving the centre. I hope Mornington Peninsula Shire plans to widen the road to make it safe for everyone. Ron Corcoran, Mornington

Memories of father It was very sad to hear of the death of the Rev Father Kevin Mogg, parish priest at St Macartans, Mornington in early 2000s. Kevin was at West Heidelberg in the late 1950s and early 1960s. If you speak to the “young people” of that time who were there they will relate wonderful stories of how he assisted the youth in all ways but particularly in sport. St Pious footy teams were number one in their eyes. You just need to ask former Collingwood great full forward Peter McKenna. At that time as a teacher at Parade College, Alphington I believed strongly that the boys should play for the school, but Kevin thought differently: he thought the parish. We had many interesting debates - a great happy rivalry. Kevin’s care for others was typical of his life as a priest, leader, generous mentor and thoughtful human being. He liked to eat out each night at the family homes of members of the parish. I believe he had a penchant for apple pie but preferred to put the greens to the side of the plate. Father Kevin brought all his wisdom, caring, enthusiasm, leadership to St Macs and all benefited from this wonderful compassionate leader. His only fault was he barracked for Collingwood. Go Pies. Geoffrey Lane, Mornington

‘Illegal’ immigrants These people in detention are not refugees, they are illegal immigrants who have paid people smugglers to jump the que (“Release refugees” Letters 8/3/22). They are in detention because they come here and destroy their identity documents so that nobody can tell who they are as they may be murders, rapists and drug criminals. That is why they are in detention and not on our streets. They were originally in offshore detention; however, I believe they have lied and faked medical problems to come to Australia and then won’t return to off shore as they should do. If they are released, taxpayers would have to give them a house, furniture, medical, government payments, schooling and many other free benefits that Australians don’t get. Our current LNP government and [Prime Minister] Scott Morrison were overwhelmingly elected because of their policies of stopping the boats and stopping illegal immigrants coming to Australia. Scott and his ministers are doing a great job in protecting Australians from these illegals arriving in Australia and it is our elected government who will decide who comes to Australia. The LNP government already has a very high intake of humanitarian refugees when you compare us to other countries, which is more than adequate without illegals coming here because they can pay people smugglers. The Australian people have spoken at the last election to say very clearly that we and the government say no to illegal immigrants and, if they do make it here, they will be in detention and that detention should be offshore. David Harrison, Seaford Editor: Under the International Refugee Convention 1952 (to which Australia is a signatory) it is not illegal to be a refugee or to flee and seek asylum in another country. Anyone who claims that nto be the case is buying the government line that says the people who arrived here by boat are “illegal maritime arrivals” (IMAs). Those beaing kept in the Park Hotel, Carlton appear to have been brought to Australia from Papua New Guinea and Nauru for medical treatment. They are seeking asylum and some have already been officially determined to be refugees. A different cohort of people in immigration detention held under Section 501 of the Migration Act (known as “the 501s”) have committed crimes here and been sentenced to 12 months or more prison time. They are mostly from New Zealand and the United Kingdom and are subject to deportation (after serving their sentence) under the “bad character” clause of the Migration Act. The federal government does not release its rationale or detail on numbers or categories of people detained, or released. Mornington News

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Nasty accident at Hastings Compiled by Cameron McCullough A VERY nasty accident, which might have ended much more seriously, took place on Friday afternoon of last week. Mr. H. Phillips, who has a young orchard on the “Run,” Hastings, was driving home about 4 o’clock. He had picked up three children going home from school, and was himself sitting in front of the spring-cart. Going down the incline where the Cemetery Road leaves the Melbourne Road, it is surmised, the backband or tugs broke, and the cart ran on to the horse’s heels. Mr. Philips was promptly kicked off the cart, and the horse bolted. Two of the youngsters dropped out along the road, escaping with a few bruises. Just across the bridge the horse came down, and the third boy, a son of Mr. J. Wilson, Cemetery Road, was pinned under the cart. Mr. Philips, who must be complimented for his grit, had followed up, though badly cut on the leg and head, and extricated him, when he was almost unconscious. Both are now doing well, and, it is hoped, will shortly be entirely recovered. The horse was badly cut about. It will be remembered that just a few months, ago Mr. Philips’ home was razed to the ground by fire during his absence, and every article of clothing and furniture lost, so he has had his share of bad luck. May good fortune now be his for a time! ***

HASTINGS still grows. Mrs. Hayes, of Frankston, is building a new shop next to Mr. A. Denham’s, where she hopes shortly to open a drapery business. *** KING APPLE By George Upton There is music in the packing shed, for you hear the papers rustle As each fruit is neatly wrapped and deftly put away, For the boys have got to hustle, and put on a bit of bustle, Now the boat is waiting for to take the fruit away. So the packers go on striving, while the fruit is still arriving, To wrap them and to pack them in a proper sort of way. And you’ll hear the rhythmic rustle, amid the hurry and the bustle, For the boats are all awaiting to take the fruit away. Throughout the Peninsula at present the main topic of conversation is apples. The daily work of most is amongst apples. The thoughts of many are of markets for apples, cases to contain apples for oversea or interstate markets, and the rush of work necessary to have the fruit picked, graded, wrapped, packed and consigned in time to reach the oversea boats that during March and April are being constantly loaded with fruit and other produce of the soil to supply the oversea demand. In the orchards the long rows of fruit trees are heavily laden with apples by the million, which, with

their bright tints of color, add a most charming and picturesque aspect to the orchards. Fruit is being picked into cases and carted to the packing shed, where the packers are busy all day, wrapping apples with others, all thoughts intent on finishing the case to a desirable level on top, and to make a record pack for the day. When it is considered that each case will contain 200 or more apples, it will be seen that the packer has to concentrate his mind on his work to pack a case in a few minutes. At the end of his day’s work he may have wrapped twenty thousand apples. The rustle of the paper used in wrapping apples makes continuous sound, and so it goes on each working day for two months – nothing but apples. They arrive at the sheds in legions daily, are packed away snugly in cases, loaded into railway trucks, and still they come pouring into the sheds to join this apparently inexhaustible procession of apples to the worlds of men outside the Peninsula. Can it be wondered at that the Apple is king? *** Langwarrin A pleasant social was held at the Methodist Church on Tuesday, 7th March, at which there was a good attendance. Parlor games were indulged in, and also a recitation by Miss Ridout and songs by Mr. D. Adderly and Miss Myrtle Corlett. A very pleasant evening was spent,

and the coffee supper provided proved something above the ordinary, and unstinted praise was bestowed on the gentleman who made the coffee; perhaps it was an art acquired during war service; anyhow, it had the real tang, and stamped the person who made it as an artist at the game. On Sunday, 19th March, harvest thanksgiving services will be held at the Methodist Church, and on the Monday evening following a sale of gifts will he held, which promises to be a record. *** MR Morris Jacobs, of Frankston, who has been in indifferent health for some time, is now, we are pleased to say, showing improvement, and hopes to soon be able to attend to business. *** The Somerville Tennis Club journeyed to Tyabb on Saturday last, to meet the local champions at tennis. After a very enjoyable afternoon’s sport Somerville retired the winners by 44 games to 34. The Ladies of Tyabb entertained the visitors to afternoon tea. These afternoons are most enjoyable and we would like to see more of them. *** WHAT already promises to be a large and representative meeting has been called for Thursday afternoon next at the Mechanics’ Hall, Frankston, when steps will be taken to form a Frankston Branch of the Alfred Hospital Auxiliary. The meeting has been convened by Mr. H. M. Collins, of “Gracehill,”

Frankston, Vice-President of the Alfred Hospital, who occupied the presidential chair during the recent absence in England of Senator Fairbairn. Mrs. J. Lambie is taking an active part in the movement and has secured the interest of other well-known workers in community causes. All ladies are cordially invited by advertisement elsewhere. The Alfred Hospital Auxiliary movement has proved a remarkably successful one in the short time since it was inaugurated. Branches have been formed in all the metropolitan centres which the hospital specially serves, such as those south of the Yarra; and now the organisation is being extended to take in districts such as Frankston, which send a majority of their patients to the Alfred Hospital. The policy of the Auxiliary does not include appeals for money, but the quiet contribution of articles in common use at the hospital. In this way the different branches in a few months have already relieved the expenditure at the institution by many hundreds of pounds – a most welcome assistance at a stage when the hospital is so rapidly growing. There will be refreshments and music at Thursday’s meeting. All who are interested in a great and popular charitable institution are asked to attend. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 17 March 1922

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

So Long to the Cinema of My Dreams By Stuart McCullough WHAT an absolute kick in the guts. I’ve no idea what kind of moron has been put in charge of the celestial ‘gut kicking’ Department but, whoever it is, they’re doing a bang up job. One minute, you’re going about your life; the next minute everything you hold dear has been desecrated. It’s as though somebody’s deliberately going out of their way to destroy every precious childhood memory I have that didn’t involve spoonfuls of Milo and peanut butter eaten in the pantry. I speak, of course, of the Frankston Cinema. For decades, it sat on the Nepean Highway, it’s unassuming façade barely hinting at the treasures that lay within. Now it’s been demolished. By ‘demolished’, I don’t mean turned into a discount bedding shop or an ‘all you can eat’ restaurant, but torn down entirely so that only dirt is left. There’s not even a plaque. Nothing. Just an empty lot that’s a vacant as my heart. For shame. Nobody had told me. We were eating dinner at the Mexican restaurant across the road when I noticed it was gone. My brother explained that the cinema had been demolished; notwithstanding the windswept, desolate piece of scorched earth before me made that something of a statement of the obvious. I felt sad. I felt demoralized. I felt deeply solemn. I felt bereft. The one thing I didn’t feel, however, is hungry. It’s difficult receiving such awful news while at a Mexican restaurant. As other people enjoyed themselves, I was unsure how best to mourn the loss of one of the most important pieces of my childhood. Given that I’d just eaten a burrito and was feeling the full impact of a dose of refried beans, I contemplated a performance of the ‘Last Post’ powered only by what I’ll refer to as ‘natural gas’ but decided that my fellow diners might think this was in poor taste. I first went to New York in Frankston. Paris and London, too. I got to visit those places through the films I saw at the Frankston cinema. It was always

Picture: Michael Purden

such a magical experience. What made it especially unique was the lobby. In the ceiling, there was an installation. It looked like some kind of ancient rock but, upon reflection, may well have been tin foil. It changed colours every few seconds. Now I realize this effect is achieved through lighting. At the time, however, I put it down to magic. I can’t be the only one. Surely, the coloured crystal / tin – foil installation meant something to other people too and was worthy of preservation. Heaven knows what the National Trust are doing if they’re allowing culturally significant coloured

tin foil lobby installations to be ruined. Is nothing sacred? I saw my first superhero at Frankston cinema. My first cowboy and astronaut too. I even saw my first creature from outer space at Frankston cinema. I also saw the movie ‘E.T. The Extra Terrestrial’ there, but that’s another story. Movies take us to other places, to other people and give us stories that entertain us and open up a world of imagination. I loved going to the movies there. Almost every single film I ever saw growing up, I saw in Frankston. ‘Superman’ and ‘Back to the

Future’ (as well as their sequels), ‘Return of the Jedi’ and ‘Batman’. In fact, it’s easier to list the exceptions. ‘Star Wars’ at the Burwood Drive In (also demolished - in favour of a business park) and ‘Police Academy Five’ at the Village Cinema in Bourke Street – a venue that should, in fact, be demolished solely because it elected to screen ‘Police Academy Five’. The Frankston cinema is where our father took my brother and I to see ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.’ It was a pivotal and life changing experience. I remember that my brother and I were deeply engaged with the film. There’s a moment in that movie (spoiler alert if you haven’t gotten around to seeing it in the eighty five years since it was released) when Snow White’s out in the woods and the Huntsman who’s been told to track her down and kill her is creeping up from behind. It was incredibly suspenseful. It was also too much for my brother, who leapt to his feet and screamed ‘Run Snow White! Quickly!’ (He was thirty years old at the time). My father still tells that story, whenever he gets the chance. It was while we were at the Mexican Restaurant that I relayed the tale to my niece who was surprised to hear that her father had ever done such a thing. It was that kind of place; where inhibitions were put aside for a few hours. If not the cinema or the multi-coloured tin foil installation in the lobby, my brother’s outburst is certainly plaque worthy. It was such an important part of growing up. That’s true for many people, I think. And it’s a shock to see that it’s gone, without warning or ceremony. It’s ridiculous, but I feel as though I ought to have been notified. Granted, it’d be odd to receive an email from someone because, according to their records, I’d been to a four o’clock showing of ‘Superman: The Movie’ in 1978, but I’d like to have known. So let me say it now - farewell old friend. See you at the big snack bar in the sky. stuart@stuartmccullough.com Mornington News

VANESSA AMOROSI GETS TO ‘THE POINT’ WHEN one of Australia’s most versatile singers, Vanessa Amorosi, takes to the stage at ‘The Point Live at Portsea’ on 19 March, it’s anybody’s guess what will happen next. Amorosi’s song-writing success and dynamic vocal range have seen her sell more than two million records worldwide, release six commercially and critically acclaimed studio albums, receive sixteen ARIA and APRA nominations, and stop the world in its tracks with her performance at the Sydney Olympics. But when she tours, and gets the chance to deliver more intimate, acoustic-based sets, it’s a whole new experience. “I like to be able to personalise my sets with each audience, so no gig is ever the same or predictable,” she said. “I get a feel for what the audience is into, what they want, and we take it from there.” Of course, there will be some of the old Amorosi favourites, but there will also be selections from her new album City of Angels, which features soulful, gospel songs well suited to her powerful voice and incredible vocal agility. While in the early days of her career she didn’t always get to demonstrate her versatility and impressive ability to sing evenly from the bottom of the vocal range to the top, Amorosi is loving the opportunity to bring a more soulful presence to the stage. “I have always loved the gospel arrangements, the melodies and the harmonies, and I’ve been very lucky to work in Los Angeles with some top American singers, including singer/song-writer Anthony Evans,” she said. “That’s reflected in my new album, and that’s what I’ll get to show the audiences here,” she said.

“I think this is my favourite album yet”. Amorosi, who is currently touring, said the gigs had so far been incredible, with audiences pumped to be back listening to live music “just like it used to be”. “With the way the world has been it’s fantastic to be on stage again, everyone’s partying again, I’m loving it, it’s so good to be back in front of an audience.” Amorosi has certainly earned her place as one of Australia’s most iconic female artists, having achieved incredible success in 1999 with her debut single ‘Have A Look’ followed by mega-hits in Australia and Europe with ‘Absolutely Everybody’ and ‘Shine’. Her debut album ‘The Power’ reached #1 in Australia, #7 in the United Kingdom, #1 in Hungary and the top 10 in several European countries. In 2008 Vanessa her third album ’Somewhere In The Real World’. Radio smashhit ‘Perfect’ became the most played song by an Australian artist in 2008. In 2009 she released her most successful album so far ‘Hazardous’, with the first single to be released, ‘This Is Who I Am’ debuting at #1 on the ARIA singles chart and achieving double platinum sales. In 2019 Vanessa released her fifth studio album ‘Back To Love’ followed by an Australian solo tour and successful festival tours. In March 2020, Vanessa released her first single ‘Coming Down Off You’ from her album titled ‘The Blacklisted Collection’, showcasing her first record as an independent artists and revealing a rawness and intimacy not heard before.

Sorrento and Old Peninsula set for Grand Final showdown By Brodie Cowburn

PROVINCIAL

SORRENTO upset Baden Powell to book a spot in the Provincial division Grand Final last weekend. The two sides faced off in the semifinal after Baden Powell finished the season in first place with ten wins, and Sorrento finished fourth with seven wins. Overport Park hosted the clash. Baden Powell were sent in to bat first, and set Sorrento a huge target to chase down. Rhys Elmi was Baden Powell’s best. He scored 75 runs before he was run out. Baden Powell finished their innings at 5/224, giving Sorrento a huge mountain to climb. Sorrento’s batters proved up to the task. Jake Wood was the difference maker, scoring 68 runs from just 42 deliveries to help get his side over the

line. Corey Harris and Robert Wilson also impressed with scores of 59 and 49 respectively. Sorrento won with three overs left to play. Old Peninsula will join Sorrento in this year’s Grand Final. They defeated Langwarrin to claim their place. Langwarrin set Old Peninsula a target of 170 to score to win. The Pirates managed to chase it down by hitting the winning runs in the final over of the match with six wickets to spare. Wade Pelzer’s unbeaten 67 proved instrumental for the victorious Old Peninsula side.

PENINSULA

SOMERVILLE and Pines will do battle in the Peninsula division Grand Final this weekend. Somerville earned their spot by defeating Heatherhill at Bruce Park. Heatherhill batted first last Saturday

and had some struggles at the crease. None of their batters managed to make a big total, and the side ended up all out for 158. Somerville chased down their target with a little more than two overs left to play. First drop batter Leigh Lowry was their best, finishing with an unbeaten score of 64. An excellent knock from opener Nicholas Christides helped Pines get the better of Seaford Tigers on Saturday. Pines batted first and set their opponents a target of 187 to chase down. Christides scored 78, his side’s best. The Tigers were competitive, but time ended up working against them. They finished their 40 overs at 7/175, 13 runs short of victory.

DISTRICT

THE 2022 District division premiers

will be either Carrum Downs or Dromana. The two sides booked their Grand Final spots with impressive home ground wins on Saturday. Carrum Downs bowled out Carrum for just 99 in their semi-final clash. Shane Smith posted their best figures, 3/17. Carrum Downs played a patient innings, and wrapped up the win with five overs and six wickets to spare. Dromana managed to defend a total of 200 against Delacombe Park on Saturday to confirm their spot in the Grand Final. Dromana’s innings was bolstered by good performances from Kierran Voelkl and Jack Fowler, who scored 65 and 59 respectively. Voelkl is finding his best form at just the right time. Delacombe Park was bowled out for 156. Christopher Vervoorst took 4/42, tearing through the middle order.

SUB DISTRICT

TYABB are a win away from being crowned Sub District division premiers. Tyabb took on Tootgarook in a semifinal on Saturday. Batting first, Tyabb put 193 runs on the scoreboard. Opener Aidan Pateman was their best with a score of 72, his best knock for the season. Tootgarook gave it a good crack, but fell 12 runs short. Their 40 overs finished at 6/181. Tootgarook opener Travis French gave it his all. He scored 82, but it wasn’t quite enough to get his side over the line. Seaford are also just a win away from premiership glory. They will join Tyabb in the Grand Final. Seaford got the better of Skye at RF Miles Reserve on Saturday.

Hunter bags his biggest win at Flemington HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou JEROME Hunter has trained the biggest winner of his career as Barb Raider dug deep to narrowly win the $300,000 Group 2 Kewney Stakes (1600m) at Flemington on Saturday. Hunter, who has been the private trainer for owners Graeme and Barbara Gathercole since 2012, has had stakes success with Warrior Of Fire (2015 Hobart Guineas) and Belwazi (2019 Kensington Stakes) in the last decade but his three-year-old fillies feats have continued to go to another level. Barb Raider, who placed third in last year’s Group 1 Thousand Guineas, has returned unbeaten this preparation for Hunter having also won the Group 3 Vanity (1400m) at Flemington three weeks ago. Adding to her record at headquarters, Barb Raider showed plenty of fight under the urgings of jockey Craig Williams to hold off the Anthony and Sam Freedman-trained Argentia to win Saturday’s Group 2 contest by half a head. Mornington-based trainer Jerome Hunter did his best to contain his emotion following his biggest win to

date. “I was a bit emotional a couple of weeks ago (following the Vanity win) and I’m just trying to hold it back now. To get a homebred winner like this for [Graeme and Barbara Gathercole] is just fantastic," Hunter said post-race. Craig Williams, who has ridden the filly at each of her eight starts, has noticed continued improvement in Barb Raider’s attitude on raceday. "She was quite raw [last prep] but she’s now quite mature. She's handling things a whole lot better, and goes to the gates on her own," Williams said. "It's just been a matter of process and the time that Jerome has decided to take with her, you can see the benefits of it now. "He's done a remarkable job with a really nice filly." Hunter said the $1million Group 1 Australian Oaks (2400m) in Sydney on April 9 is a possible option for the promising stayer. "We'll go home and have a think about it, but it is very enticing. I do know that she likes the wet as well, so looking at Sydney, it'd be nice," he said.

Too tough: Jerome Hunter’s Barb Raider holds on to win the Group 2 Kewney Stakes at Flemington on Saturday 12 March. Picture: Supplied

League starts, squads announced SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie THE 2022 league season gets underway this weekend with high hopes that for the first time in three years a full season can be completed. There are a few local clubs that fancy their chances this year none more so than Frankston Pines. However head coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor is on holiday in the UK and will miss the first three games. Assistant Paulo Pinheiro takes over as Pines embarks on a State 3 campaign it hopes will go some way towards making up for the club’s bitter disappointment at the outcome of the previous two seasons. Mornington rounded off its preseason preparations in a 2-2 draw with Caroline Springs George Cross in the Tony Mackay Memorial Game at Dallas Brooks Park on Saturday. The visitors pounced on a poor clearance from Mornington keeper Josh Gates to lead 1-0 and Mornington striker Josh Hine failed to convert a penalty late in the half. Two impressive Rhys Craigie goals inside three minutes in the second half gave the home side the lead but a penalty to George Cross rounded off the scoreline. Peninsula Strikers beat Noble Park United 5-1 on the back pitch at Centenary Park on Saturday. The match highlight was a Cooper Andrews hat-trick in just four minutes in between goals from Cassius Delaney and Callum Bradbury. Strikers’ round one league clash with North Caulfield on Sunday will be on the back pitch but subsequent home matches will move to Ballam Park on Saturdays with the reserves at 5pm and seniors at 7pm. The major makeover of the main pitch at Centenary Park is expected to be completed by the end of the month with floodlighting to be completed later this year. It’s not known when that pitch will be available for use. Skye lost 2-1 to Langwarrin’s under21s at Lawton Reserve on Thursday night. Skye led early in the second half from a Mitch Blake strike inside the area but Langy levelled through an Oscar Goble volley and the winner came from an Owen Murphy penalty that ended the match. Two days later Skye was again in action this time against Brighton at Comets Stadium. And again Skye succumbed to a lastminute goal. A Ryan Mravljak header had put Phil

McGuinness’ side ahead early in the second half after a James George surge down the left and a superb cross but an error at the back as Skye worked down the clock allowed Brighton to snatch an equaliser. Last Thursday Baxter took on Rosebud at Olympic Park with the State 4 side heading back up Peninsula Link later that night after a 5-0 win. Baxter gaffer George Hughes and assistant Robert Mathieson were satisfied with the result but it was Baxter’s performance that pleased them most. Lachie McMinimee (2), Lawrence Komba (2) and Luke Grant scored. On the same night Chelsea downed Aspendale Stingrays 1-0 at Edithvale Recreation Reserve. Adam Bartosy scored in the first half by running onto a through ball and rounding the keeper before knocking the ball into the unguarded goal. “I think we played really well and probably should’ve scored more but ultimately I was very happy with the win,” Chelsea head coach Carlo Melino said. On Sunday Somerville Eagles beat Knox Churches 4-0 with a Conor McFall double and goals to Ronnie Krishnan and Adrian Pace while Mount Martha swamped Mount Eliza 8-0 in the annual Mental Health Safety Net Cup. Adam Martin (3), Connor Mooney (2), Corey Riddle (2) and Mitch Hawkins were the scorers. Here are the local senior squads for 2022 with the previous club of new signings in brackets: ASPENDALE STINGRAYS GOALKEEPERS: Matthew Self, Joshua Mravljak. DEFENDERS: Matthew Leggett, Noah Berends, Peter Dimopoulos, Dominik Ogon, Liam Norris, Pal Calvino. MIDFIELDERS: Sam Timuska-Carr, James Macnab, Kieran
