Newcastle Weekly contents

thursday 16 march 2017

08 From the editor I wrote, in an earlier column, how my son entering Year 11, this year, was making me feel old. Well, that feeling was more than amplified last Sunday when he celebrated his 16th birthday.

It seems like only yesterday that his mother and I were packing him off to his first day of Kindergarten and sitting through a seemingly infinite line of school plays, performances and Book Week parades – all delightful of course.

Now, the Thomas the Tank Engine DVDs and Captain Underpants books have been replaced with studying for the HSC, career choices, tertiary education options and driver’s licenses – eek!

While his mother and I view our son’s impending adulthood with a due sense of bittersweet reminiscence and would keep him in ‘feety pyjamas’ forever, given the choice, ushering him into this new phase of life is also quite exciting for all concerned.

I’ve also mentioned, on more than one occasion on this page, how much talent we have here in this region. Well that fact is rammed home again, this week, with our story on the upcoming Newcastle Fringe Festival. While there are a number of performers from overseas and interstate, some of the highlights are sure to come from the locals such as Circus Avalon, Kara Zmatiq and more. Make sure you turn to page 33 to read all about it and make sure you get along to a show or two.

Have a great week.

Students in danger

H

alf of Jewells Primary School’s students are at risk every time they walk to school. About 235 of the school’s 470 students live west of Ntaba Road – the main road that feeds into Fencott Drive, where the school is located.

Those whose parents let them, walk to school. But Ntaba road has

8

no pedestrian crossing, and no school zone speed limit.

The school’s P&C has been fighting for two decades to have a pedestrian crossing installed.

Lake Macquarie council is currently considering public submissions on its proposal to put in kerb extensions and no-stopping zones either side on Ntaba Road.

“The use of kerb extensions reduces the crossing distance for pedestrians, while the no-stopping signs on either side improve visibility for both pedestrians and oncoming traffic,” a council spokesperson said.

But Jewells Primary School P&C secretary Liz Evans, whose two eldest sons walk to school, said this was not good enough.

“Children between the ages of five and 12 actually don’t have the ability to negotiate oncoming traffic,” she said.

Member for Swansea, Yasmin Catley, agreed, adding it would give children “a false sense of security”.

Mrs Evans and Ms Catley joined Shadow Minister for Roads, Maritime and Freight, Jodi McKay, at a public meeting last Friday to hear from concerned parents and community members on the issue.

The crowd echoed the P&C’s call for a 40-kilometre per hour school zone and flashing lights on Ntaba Road, as well as a pedestrian crossing.

The P&C has started a petition, calling upon the state government to provide this infrastructure.

Ms McKay said both Roads and Maritime Services and the council would need to commit to this.

But Ms Catley said the community would continue to fight, whatever the cost.

“Two decades is too long to be fighting for something,” she said.

“So we’re actually going to make change now. We will continue to agitate until such time that we are heard.”

Sign the P&C’s petition at Jewells Primary School; Jewells shops; or Yasmin Catley’s office.

news Boost for social housing Newcastle-based Community housing provider Compass Housing has been awarded a major state government contract to boost social and affordable housing throughout NSW. The Social and Affordable Housing Fund is the first initiative of its kind for the social housing sector and will see Compass Housing deliver 600 new dwellings built across the Newcastle, Wyong, Lake Macquarie, Gosford, Maitland and Singleton local government areas.

“The government deserves major credit for taking bold steps to increase supply,” Compass Housing managing director Greg Budworth said.

“Adequate housing is crucial to a person’s wellbeing. Without it, it’s next to impossible to make a go of things in any other part of your life.”

Cusack’s shock resignation leaves Hunter in lurch

Available Wednesday 15th - Sunday 19th

of March..

After less than two months in the top job, Catherine Cusack has resigned as Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter.

Ms Cusack reportedly sent NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian an email criticising the makeup of her new cabinet, announced at the end of January.

Member for Port Stephens Kate Washington said Ms Cusack’s shock resignation was a blow to the Hunter region.

“The Hunter will now have its third parliamentary secretary since the beginning of 2017,” Ms Washington said.

news NSW Ambulance Commissioner Dominic Morgan, Cliff Marsh OAM, NSW health minister Brad Hazzard, Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service chief pilot Mike deWinton, Dr Mary Morgan, and Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service CEO Richard Jones.

New era for rescue helicopter The Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service will deliver life-saving aeromedical services and search and rescue operations from the Hawkesbury River to the Queensland border through a new partnership with NSW Ambulance.

Under the new contract, four Agusta Westland 139 helicopters

will service the northern zone of the NSW Helicopter Retrieval Network – 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The AW139s are an improvement on the current fleet in speed, range and endurance.

These aircraft have on-board patient care features, such as the ‘zero lift’ arms to assist moving Newborn

Emergency Transport Service cribs.

The helicopters will be manned by an outstanding team of pilots, crew, doctors and paramedics, with additional specialist care available if required.

Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service chief executive officer, Richard Jones, said the service had undertaken extensive training and preparation for this since it was announced as the successful tenderer in December 2014.

“This work is a great credit to our pilots, crews, engineers and NSW Ambulance medical teams in Belmont, Broadmeadow, Lismore and Tamworth,” Mr Jones said.

“I acknowledge their efforts and hard work and we are very proud of everything that has been achieved.”

NSW Ambulance Commissioner Dominic Morgan welcomed the

continuing partnership with the rescue helicopter service.

“NSW Ambulance is pleased to partner with the service to support local communities in NSW,” Mr Morgan said.

“I am confident this partnership will enable our highly-qualified NSW Ambulance paramedics and NSW Health helicopter doctors to continue delivering exceptional out-of-hospital critical care to patients across the state, no matter where in NSW they live.”

Established in 1975 as a weekend beach patrol, the rescue helicopter service became a 24/7 emergency service through fundraising and community support.

Today, it is jointly funded by the state government, corporate partnerships and community support.

Council revamps website for flood preparedness An interactive flood map is a new feature of Newcastle council’s redesigned webpages on flooding.

The map shows the city’s floodplain, and highlights floodprone areas across the city.

Residents and business owners can search their address to identify their flood risk.

Flooding affects up to one third of all properties in Newcastle.

In a storm even, such as the

2007 Pasha Bulka storm, flood waters can rise quickly, and sometimes there is less than an hour’s warning between the start of a storm and the onset of flooding.

The best defense is preparedness: know what your flood risk is at home, work, school, or other places you frequent.

In its webpage relaunch, Newcastle council also added more detailed information on flood events, with the aim of reducing reliance on the SES by increasing public awareness.

The website contains information on basic flood mechanisms (flash, mainstream and ocean flooding), and steps to take to prepare, respond and recover from a flood.

It is hoped that this will discourage people from walking

or driving through floodways, as well as evacuating too late.

Newcastle Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes said the council aimed to improve the city’s liveability while potentially saving lives during floods.

“Recent surveys undertaken by Newcastle Voice found a limited understanding in the community of the physical aspects of the water cycle, with many unable to name their local catchment or waterway,” she said.

“This understanding is key to ensuring residents understand the behaviour of stormwater in their local surroundings and the value of everyday activities that maintain the drainage network.”

news Mentors give back to youth

Youth Frontiers program coordinator Nicole Molyneux at Community Activities Lake Macquarie (CALM) in Toronto. Photo: Peter Stoop

You don’t need any special qualifications to mentor a young person; all it takes is passion, care and commitment.

So says Nicole Molyneux, newly-appointed coordinator of Youth Frontiers, a statewide youth mentoring initiative funded by the Department of Family & Community Services.

Ms Molyneux speaks from the heart, having mentored a 15-year-old Newcastle High School student through the program in 2015.

Over the course of two school terms, Ms Molyneux worked with the young girl on a project she was passionate about.

Together, they organised a high tea at an aged care facility to promote intergenerational connections; all the while Ms Molyneux was helping her mentee build valuable life skills.

“I think she got a lot out of the program,” Ms Molyneux said.

“It really built her confidence.”

Delivered locally by Community Activities Lake Macquarie (CALM), where Ms Molyneux is based, in partnership with YWCA NSW, Youth Frontiers is about to kick off for another year.

There are nine schools participating across Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens and the greater Hunter region.

Volunteer mentors work with students over two terms on projects that will be showcased in November.

This usually involves two hours a week; some sessions are in a group setting, while others are one-on-one.

Ms Molyneux said the only requirement for mentors was that they were over the age of 18, and that they felt they could contribute to a young person’s development.

CALM is looking for 120 volunteers across the region. To register as a volunteer mentor, visit youthfrontiers.com.au, or attend one of the following information sessions: 22 March, 9.30am-12.30pm at The Place: Charlestown Community Centre; 22 March, 12pm-6pm at Wests City; or 24 March 9.30am-12.30am at East Maitland Bowling Club.

Call for quad bike safety summit

Seven quad bike deaths across the state in the past 16 months have prompted the NSW Labor Party to call for “meaningful action”.

Those deaths have all occurred since the State Coroner released its report into quad bike deaths in late 2015.

Among the coroner’s recommendations was the need for a safety rating system; a nationally-accredited training package; an independent survey to assess the benefits, risks and efficacy of crush protection devices; and a media campaign

to increase awareness of the risks involved in using quad bikes.

In response, the state government offered a helmet subsidy for farmers. Labor has labelled this response as “woefully inadequate”, calling for a summit to address quad bike safety.

Shadow Minister for Innovation and Better Regulation, Yasmin Catley, said the government needed to take urgent action.

“It is becoming clear that the NSW government’s response is not quick enough, nor good enough,” she said.

“Labor wants to work with the government in looking at programs, legislation and other regulation to try and prevent more tragic deaths.”

Nationwide, more than 109 people have died in the past six years as a result of quad bike accidents.

Speers Point goes to the dogs Speers Point Park will play host to Lake Macquarie’s first fenced dog park as part of upgrade works, starting in the coming weeks.

“For some time, we have received requests from the community to provide a fenced dog park area to allow dog owners to exercise and socialise their dogs in an enclosed setting,” Lake Macquarie City Council’s community planning manager

John Ferguson said.

“It is hoped this new area will not only provide a space for dogs to exercise and play freely but will allow people to socialise, build a stronger community and encourage our residents to become more active as well.”

“It is hoped this new area will not only provide a space for dogs to exercise and play freely but will allow people to socialise,

build a stronger community and encourage our residents to become more active as well.”

The announcement of the fenced dog park forms part of a raft of improvements, in line with the council’s Speers Point Park Master Plan. Other works to be carried out include the construction of a central promenade and modern lighting, new shelters, barbeques and amenities, the realignment of the shared pathway and irrigation works.

During construction, the majority of the park will remain open to the public with select areas closed off while works are taking place.

“We will be working with the community and park users to keep them informed throughout the construction process,” Mr Ferguson said. Works are expected to be completed by late 2017. For more information, visit lakemac.com.au /city/works/speers-point-parkupgrade

RESCUE CHOPPER THE REAL HERO

F

or New Lambton mum Holly Wyndham, the decision to rally her pint-sized sidekicks and register for the 2017 Superhero Stride was a no-brainer.

Next Sunday 26 March, Holly and her two daughters, Poppy, 10, and Ivy, five, as well as Ivy’s school friend Erin Beveridge, also five, will don

their favourite superhero costumes as team Windybums and join Novocastrians in walking, running, strolling or jogging a three-kilometre loop around Newcastle Foreshore.

The course culminates in a family-friendly event at Nobbys Beach Reserve, with stacks of fun, food and entertainment on offer.

It’s all in the name of raising much-needed funds for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service, which transports critically-ill patients from the scene of emergencies to the nearest hospital for free.

Holly, a nurse at John Hunter Children’s Hospital’s intensive care unit of seven years, has seen firsthand the impact the service has on patients and their families.

“You’re in the ICU, chatting to these parents, and you can hear the sound of the chopper overhead,” Holly says. “You can sense their fear, but also their relief that help has arrived.”

In October, Holly signed up to work with the hospital’s secondary retrievals team.

The team accompanies the rescue helicopter service in the air or on the road in the Hunter New England Health District to transport patients between hospitals for specialist

care (whereas primary retrievals are from the scene of an emergency to hospital).

Though she is still in training and is yet to fly in the helicopter for an active retrieval, Holly knows these operations make a real difference.

“You’re really exposed to how limited services are in regional areas, and how necessary the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service is,” she said.

“If we didn’t have it, we wouldn’t be able to give patients the care they need, or they’d be waiting a lot longer to receive it.”

Though the service is partly funded by the state government, it also relies on community support to ensure no one has and no one will ever need to pay for it.

Program builds happy, healthy students Student Program during National Youth Week.

Held from 31 March to 9 April, National Youth Week is an Australia-wide celebration of young people and the contributions they make to their local communities.

police officers, sportspeople, and representatives of headspace, a national youth mental health support service for young people aged 12 to 25, among other free support services.

West Wallsend High School head welfare teacher Vicki Hutchinson said the idea was to make students aware of what services were available to them.

“It’s really, really important that they’re getting this, because a lot of kids think they’re on their own, and they don’t understand that there’s help out there,” Ms Hutchinson said.

“They also think they’re alone; they’re not. There’s other kids out there going through exactly the same thing.”

The Healthy Student Program will run on 4 and 5 April.

news The Fluro Friday crew hit the surf at Newcastle Beach. Photo: Peter Stoop

Beach-goers tackle life with a grain of salt Salt water is the best therapy.

Take it from the group of 10 to 15 regular beach-goers who wake up at the crack of dawn each Friday to hit the surf at Newcastle Beach.

If nothing else, their fluro get-up is a conversation-starter.

The enthusiastic early birds are part of Fluro Friday – a local branch of a national, not-for-profit community group called OneWave.

Originating in the USA, OneWave holds weekly Fluro Friday sessions all over the world

– from California to Bali to New Zealand – where participants dress in fluro beachwear to swim, surf and do yoga to tackle funks like depression and anxiety.

The Newcastle group was initiated by Merewether’s Aimee Blacker in October 2015.

Having suffered depression herself, Aimee thought the sessions would be a great way for people to come together, share their feelings, and support one another through some of life’s greatest challenges.

And she was right.

“Everyone loves it,” she said.

“It’s been a great outlet for so many people.”

While the mental and emotional benefits of exercise are scientifically proven, Fluro Friday is as much about those conversations on the beach as it is about the physical activity.

“We’re making conversations about mental health more everyday,” Aimee said.

“And that’s where the fluro comes into play: it’s about making something invisible (mental health issues), visible.”

The group meets at Newcastle Beach at 6.30am every Friday.

The sessions are free and anyone is welcome to join. Some stay for an hour, some stay for a few, but almost everyone gains something from the experience.

The 24 March Fluro Friday session will be a particularly special one. Participants will don as many fluro colours as possible and stand, hand-in-hand, on the beach for a minute’s silence, in recognition of those we have lost to suicide, and in celebration of OneWave’s fourth birthday.

Newcastle Knights player Nathan Ross scores a try during the match against the Gold Coast Titans at McDonald Jones Stadium. Photo: Getty Images

Newcastle turn tables in thrilling win The Newcastle Knights found themselves back in the winner’s circle, for the first time, in a remarkable 19 games, after downing Gold Coast Titans in a thrilling contest at McDonald Jones Stadium on Sunday.

The Knights grabbed the first points of the match in the 18th

minute, courtesy of new fullback Brendan Elliot, who crashed through the Gold Coast defence to find the try line. Just minutes later, prop Jack Stockwell came off the bench made good on a tidy pass from Mitch Barnett to make it 12-0.

Not to be outdone, the Titans hit

back in the form of a freakish flickball from Anthony Don that found Konrad Hurrell who crossed the line with Ash Taylor converting to make it 12-6.

After Newcastle was denied twice by the video ref, Titans hooker Karl Lawton grabbed another four points and a conversion from Taylor made it 12-all.

Gold Coast took the lead just before half-time when winger Tyronne Roberts-Davis scored in the corner, after Elliot had knocked on from a scrum win.

Winger Nathan Ross levelled the score just minutes into the second

half before Joe Greenwood put on four more for Gold Coast.

After local junior Sam Stone gave Newcastle a two-point lead, the Titans kicked a penalty goal, minutes later to make it 22-all with less than 20 minutes of play.

Pete Mata’utia got the Knights back in front, in the last five minutes when he barged his way over the line. Minutes later, Ross cemented the victory when he claimed his second try to take the red and blue to a 34-26 final score.

Newcastle take on South Sydney Rabbitohs at McDonald Jones Stadium on Saturday 18 March.

Jets fail to fire against Roar The Newcastle Jets were left crestfallen after their dramatic 3-0 loss to Brisbane Roar at McDonald Jones Stadium on Sunday. Despite taking the lead early, thanks to a penalty from Andrew Nabbout, a red card shown to Newcastle captain Jason Hoffman proved to be the incident from which Newcastle never recovered. Goals to Jamie Maclaren and Nick D’Agostino cemented a Roar victory. To add insult to injury, Jets coach Mark Jones was also sent from the ground after making comments to the fourth official.

Kurri Kurri Nostalgia Festival feature A RETRO CELEBRATION elebrating all things from the 1950s and '60s, the Kurri Kurri Nostalgia Festival is all about rock 'n' roll, classic cars, hot-rods, fashion, music, dancing and everything retro. The popular weekend attracts massive crowds from all corners of the country – creating an electric atmosphere as the town centre is transformed into all the glory of a bygone era.

This year, one of the major drawcards will be the Shannon’s Show and Shine, on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 March, with an amazing display of immaculate classic cars and hot-rods to satisfy even the fussiest of gear-

heads. On Saturday, there is a limited closed road area and 100 car spaces and on Sunday all roads around Rotary Park and in the CBD will be closed with up to 500 cars on display.

Another ‘must-do’ at the festival is definitely the Retro Market Place, which brings together some of the biggest and best nostalgia-themed retro and vintage market stalls from across the country including the likes of Miskonduct Clothing and Rainbows and Fairies.

Here, you’ll find a mammoth range of themed merchandise, retro goods, vintage clothing, rock 'n' roll memorabilia and

collectables and much, much more. The Retro Market Place will operate from 8am to 4pm on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 March at Rotary Park.

The event will kick off with a bang on Friday 24 March with a family fun night at Rotary Park from 5pm to 8pm. Grab the kids, get your best dancing shoes on and get ready for a night of great rock 'n' roll courtesy of local outfit Jumpin’ Jukebox and learn some dance steps as Eagle Rocks demonstrate their skills on the dance floor.

The fun won’t stop on the Rotary Park Main Stage with the likes of best-dressed parades,

Getting into the

swing of things To some, the 1950s is little more than a bygone era, but to many – especially those who lived during that time – the fifties still conjures up nostalgic memories of rock ‘n’ roll music and wide swing skirts.

That holds true for husband and wife Gary and Kerry Haigh, who own 1950s rock ‘n’ roll dance studio All Shook Up. “[The fifties were] a lovely time,” Kerry said.

“After the wartime, things brightened up; there was more money around for people to enjoy themselves and the music changed.”

Kerry and her husband teach traditional four-step rock ‘n’ roll dance twice a week in Newcastle and Maitland.

Gary is the only level-three rock ‘n’ roll dance teacher in the Hunter Valley with accreditation from the Australian Rock ‘n’ Roll Dancesport Council.

Established 11 years ago, the studio offers beginners and intermediate classes at Telarah Bowling Club on Wednesday evenings and Mayfield Bowling Club on Thursday evenings.

The classes run as part of a five-week course, which starts afresh after the last course finishes.

Some come for friendship, others come to learn a new skill, but they all have one thing in common: they’re there to have fun.

And not only do they get into the swing of things with old-time music and dress; four years ago, the studio established its own classic car club, and many members participate in local car shows.

All Shook Up will be performing a dance display at the Kurri Kurri Nostalgia Festival between 10:00am and 10:30am on Sunday, 26 March in front of the main stage.

Gift certificates are also available.

Popular local children’s circus, Circus Avalon, will be enthralling revellers with a line-up of vagabonds and misfits in their Gallery of Rogues, while comedian Uncle Nath will have them rolling in the aisles with his Dad’s Have Feelings Too show which he describes as “a warm take of a well-intentioned dad hanging by a thread”.

Little Fictions is an evening of actors reading short Australian stories and as well as featuring authors from all across Australia.

The shows will include work by local authors while well-known local magician Joel Howlett will

An eclectic smorgasboard of performing arts – from comedy, theatre, music, dance, circus and almost everything in between – will descend on Newcastle when the 2017 Newcastle Fringe Festival kicks off later this month.

Running across multiple venues – Birdwood Park, the Royal Exchange Theatre, Newcastle Cathedral, Newcastle Leagues Club, Catapult Dance Studio, the Grand Hotel, The Crown and Anchor, and the Unorthodox Church of Groove – this year’s festival will feature 21 different shows with a mix of international, interstate and local acts.

Comedian Uncle Nath will have them rolling in the aisles at the Newcastle Fringe Festival.

If it’s death-defying stunts you’re after, then Dangerboy definitely has you covered. Putting himself in harm’s way for your entertainment for over 20 years, Dangerboy has graced the stages of many high-profile festivals and events nationwide.

Newcastle’s own Kara Zmatiq – "Australia’s best singing drag queen" – will be hosting “A Soiree” at the Crown and Anchor Hotel, with guests encouraged to

dress up in drag-tastic style.

Add to that performances

by Madhouse Circus, Two Tall Theatre’s production of the darklycomic Dropped, Clark Gormley in Dial N for Nerder and local comedian Matthew McFarlane’s Conda Conda Conda and much, much more, you have a Fringe Festival worth writing home about.

The Newcastle Fringe Festival will be on at various venues from Wednesday 22 March to Sunday 26 March. For more information, visit newcastlefringe.com.au

One of the many names to keep an eye on at Lake Macquarie Music Society’s Young Performers of the Year concert is soprano Tashana Hardy. The 17-year-old talent will be one of 16 up-and-comers who will be performing at the event and she told Newcastle Weekly audiences could expect an eclectic performance.

“I am going to be performing an operetta and a classic jazz number – both are quite different and I’m hoping the crowd will be surprised.

It’s also a bit of a workout, singing both classical and jazz – it’s like vocal gymnastics,” she said.

Acrux Art Gallery owner Nadia Aurisch in the gallery with her puppy, Mabel.

Swimming in the deep end What fun would life be if we did things in half measures. Acrux Art Gallery owner Nadia Aurisch certainly agrees.

It’s been six months since the 28-year-old ceramicist opened the gallery with her furry sidekick, Mabel, in Hamilton.

“I have a habit of biting off a lot more than I can chew,” Nadia jokes.

All fun aside, things have been going well for Nadia and Mabel, and the gallery seems to have established itself

well in Newcastle’s art scene.

The gallery attracts a healthy number of exhibitors each month, and Nadia says she’s had a great response so far from exhibitors and gallery-goers alike, abating any initial fears Nadia might have had about running a gallery whilst studying fine arts at Newcastle university.

“There are quiet days and there are busy days,” she said. “It’s had its ups and downs, but mostly ups.”

16 March – 2 April 2017 group exhibitions featuring a number of artists.

There is also a solo pop-up space at the back of the gallery.

The gallery has showcased the work of ceramicists such as Sharon Taylor, and printmakers including Valé Zakarauskas, Jeanne Harrison and Penny Wilson.

Up next in the gallery is a group exhibition called Animalia, which runs from 16 March to 2 April.

This will feature several artists’ work in various mediums, from natural illustration to abstract works.

James McFarland will exhibit in the solo pop-up space.

And as for looking toward the future, Nadia’s short-term goal is to finish uni, before knuckling down on some big plans for the gallery – most of which is under wraps.

What she can share, however, is that Acrux will hold a collaborative exhibition with fellow Hamilton art space, Gallery 139, in June.

Natural health and beauty expert and holistic nutritionist, Samantha Sargent, shares her tips on nurturing the body, mind and spirituality to achieve selflove, a concept she believes people overlook.

“I wholeheartedly believe that holistic happiness and health is achieved by first and foremost nurturing the relationships that we have with our self, which then provides us with the energy to gift love to those around us,” she says.

It’s not selfish to love and treat yourself; here are four steps to practise self-care:

Take a moment each day for some ‘me time’. Even if it’s only a couple of minutes with mindful breathing paired with your favourite calming essential oil (e.g. neroli, lavender). With every inhalation, breathe in the properties of nature, and with every exhalation let go of

your worries.

Quit whining. Before you open your mouth, ask “is it kind?”, “is it necessary?” If it’s a 'yes' to both, then go for it. If it’s a 'no' to either one of the questions, then keep quiet. Do this for the next two weeks and see the difference in your life, and the way in which people interact with you.

TIPS FOR SELF-CARE

We’re expanding our mental health services.

Depression is one of the world’s most common and disabling medical illnesses.

The World Health Organisation estimates that depression will be the leading cause of disease burden globally by 2030 (WHO, 2004).

At Toronto Private Hospital we’re introducing Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation also known as rTMS, a revolutionary therapy for treatment resistant depression. rTMS is a safe, non-invasive therapy with no systemic side effects, that has proven success where pharmaceutical treatment has failed. Over 80 international studies of rTMS have found significant decline in conditions following rTMS therapy.

Toronto Private Hospital is the first to offer rTMS in the greater Hunter region.

To access rTMS at Toronto Private Hospital, talk to your GP or call the Toronto Private Hospital Intake Officer on 1800 311 470.

RENOVATING

Living life with purpose game, called the Mins Game.

On the first day, they each found one item to throw out; on the second day, two items, and so on and so forth.

By the end, Mike and Inga had each discarded 456 items; even Andy had donated some of her toys.

“Once we started decluttering, once we started taking these things that we realised didn’t mean anything to us, out of our life, that just created so much space,” Mike said.

No longer anchored down by their physical possessions, the Campbells jetted off to Northwoods, Wisconsin.

They house sat and pet-sat their way across the US, spending spring in Colorado, summer in Rhode Island, and autumn in upstate New York.

All the while, they rented out their home fully-furnished.

While overseas, Mike started the Live Immediately website, to chronicle the life lessons he had learnt, which all started with decluttering.

It led to an epiphany about how

Live Immediately curator Mike Campbell in his Hamilton South home. Photo: Peter Stoop

Mike spent this one, precious life that he had been gifted with.

“I was looking at my own life, and what I was just doing was wasting it away. Whether that be mindlessly flicking through my social apps, or mindlessly watching TV, or complaining that I don’t have time, and I’m just busy being busy,” he said.

“That decluttering aspect gave me time to think about that and really question the things I was doing.

“We work for eight hours, and we sleep for eight hours, but what

in the garden The colours of Autumn

IN THE GARDEN JUDY SHARPE

Autumn is the ideal season for colour coordinating the garden, because it is cool enough to move plants that aren’t doing exactly what you want.

Think of your garden as a chess board.

Don’t hesitate to move the players around, watering thoroughly after resettling into the new position. Prune off some growth and apply Seasol to stimulate new roots.

Green and white still tend to dominate garden design, but I prefer to include blocks of colour as highlight. I tend to favour pinks

but love a splash of blue, which is nature’s most unusual colour.

Intense blue flowers need paler contrasting backdrops such as silver-leafed plants. Annuals can be used to provide variation - try African Queen Marigolds as a background for blue pansies. Many blue plants that are bedded in autumn don’t flower until late winter/spring. Annuals, perennials and bulbs that can be planted during autumn include hyacinth, cineraria, pansy, viola grape hyacinth and iris.

are we doing for those other eight hours?”

Mike now works from home on his own terms, and makes time to walk his daughter school every day – he lives life with purpose.

And now, he’s inspiring others to do the same.

Mike releases weekly podcasts through the website, in which he takes five with ordinary people who have chosen to live immediately.

A life, Mike Campbell says, is only “a few uncomfortable steps” away for anyone.

In 2015, Mike, his wife Inga and their then four-year-old daughter, Andy, discarded, donated or sold 70% of their belongings, including their cars, in preparation for one of their biggest journeys yet.

Uninspired by his job in marketing, Mike felt something needed to change.

Inga suggested they pack up their belongings and live overseas for a year for a change of scenery.

“Usually when that topic comes up, people think, what are we going to do with all our stuff,” Mike said.

“But that never came into our thoughts, because our stuff wasn’t holding us back anymore. That cleansing of our physical space had cleansed our thoughts.”

In the lead-up to their decision to board a plane bound for the USA in October 2015, the Campbells had spent 12 months decluttering their home.

They did this through playing a

Decluttering their Hamilton South home was the Campbell family’s catalyst for a massive lifestyle change.

PICK OF THE WEEK Candy Friday, SBS, 11.10pm, MA15+ (2006) The late Heath Ledger plays would-be poet Dan, who falls for art student Candy (Abbie Cornish, left). The film charts their rocky romance, both with each other and with the heroin that gradually comes to dominate their lives. There is never any doubt where the pair are headed as the plot unfolds in three aptly titled chapters; Heaven, Earth and Hell. Geoffrey Rush is superb as the pair’s dealer, a shady, bohemian professor with a seemingly endless supply of drugs and lovers.

Sombre and compelling cinema.

Friday

Blood Diamond

War Horse Saturday, 7TWO, 8.30pm, M (2011) This Steven Spielberg opus drew a divided response from many critics on its release, many of whom saw it as a display of the both the best and worst of the director’s tendencies. The film opens in early-1900s Devon, England, when a family buys a beautiful thoroughbred despite their poverty. Son Albert (Jeremy Irvine, above) bonds with the horse, but his father, perpetually drunk, sells it to the army.

What follows is an epic war film that hearkens back to bygone classics, with some of the most stirring sequences Spielberg has put to film.

Tuesday, GO!, 9pm, MA15+ (2006) Leonardo DiCaprio (right) went two for two in 2006 with his great performance in The Departed followed by an equally striking effort in Edward Zwick’s stirring action-drama. DiCaprio plays cold-hearted South African diamond smuggler Danny, caught in a crossfire of moral conflict in civil war-stricken Sierra Leone. Djimon Hounsou and Jennifer Connelly are part of his quest to possess a priceless stone.

Blood Diamond has a lot in common with The Constant Gardener – also structured around the wages of war in Africa – but lacks its subtlety. On the flipside, the action is thunderous and the heroics are genuinely exciting.

Energy, power and drive are Reese’s during the year ahead so now is the time to make progress and use her creative powers constructively. When it comes to her personal life she needs to use tact and diplomacy when dealing with others. Loved ones who are not as strong as her will require a helping hand and by giving it to them she's setting some positive karma into motion. She has confidence, self-respect and inner understanding in spades.

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

CANCER JUN 22 - JUL 22

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

You may decide to start a creative venture and if so, this is the time to do some research on your ideas and to see what materials and methods would best suit your purpose. A trip to the theatre or a riotous night out will be right up your alley.

Try to stretch your mind by pitting your wits against a problem or two. There’s no need for this to be serious; it may simply be a case of doing some crosswords, enjoying a computer game or something more energetic, like a sporting match with friends.

You can begin to make sense of your home and work situations and friends may come up with solutions for issues in both of these areas.

You may be given an opportunity to buy something for the home at a knockdown price and loved ones will be supportive of your choices.

Jupiter puts you in a business-like mood and any routine work will be accomplished with ease, but the reason for that is you will be thinking happy thoughts and dreaming about the future.

Nothing wrong in that as long as you get your tasks done.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Conventional values are not for you since you’re determined to chart your own course. Make time to have fun, you deserve it. This is quite a lucky time for a little wager; don’t put your shirt on anything but buy a raffle or lottery ticket if you get the opportunity.

If you listen to your intuition you will discover a clever way around a financial issue. Whether this makes you a fortune or brings in a small but useful sum, it will be worthwhile.

Romantically, this month’s planetary aspects will help get things going in the right direction.

The Sun in Pisces indicates that if you’re still waiting on something big to happen where your relationships are concerned, your luck is about to change for the better. For those already spoken for, luck may be in the form of some sort of resolution with a current issue.

An expansive personal or professional project will go ahead in leaps and bounds. Keep tabs on your spending though as money will slip through your fingers. There will be news from distant places and you may be asked to join friends or family for a special celebration.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 21

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Guard against being talked into buying anything, avoid slick sales people like the plague and don't agree to anything on the phone or on the doorstep in order to get the vendor off your back. Romantically, you may be attracted to a fascinating stranger from a strange land.

With the Sun in aspect to Neptune you will be feeling nostalgic; perhaps an old photograph will trigger memories of a time when life seemed idyllic. There is no harm in revelling in the past, just long as it doesn’t replace your present life. Don't overload your schedule.

Friends, family and partners could all be making demands upon your time, just when you feel you most need a little space for yourself. Do what you have to do and let them do the rest for themselves. Make sure your opinions are heard by those who matter.

You seem to be making some quite important long-term decisions and the indications are that this is the right thing to do. Some of these decisions revolve around relationships and partnerships and they could lead you either into or out of some kind of major commitment.
