This week...

From the editor The spring school holidays are fast approaching (where has this year gone?!) and we thought, what better way to celebrate than by taking a road trip to Nulkaba to meet Hunter Valley Zoo's newest additions.

Journalist Ben Murphy was the first to volunteer, and, lucky him, he had the chance to play with emu chicks, tortoises, and marmosets – the latter of which I'm told were very cheeky and climbed all over Newcastle Weekly's photographer.

At the end of the day, the adorable emu chicks were the stars of the show, and made the front cover of this week's school holidays edition. If you're looking for things to keep the kids entertained, aside from a trip to Hunter Valley Zoo (which, by the way, NW staff highly recommend), our school holidays feature is your one-stop shop.

It starts on page 27.

That glorious spring feeling I talked about last week is well and truly here, with the mercury starting to climb. I can almost taste the salty afternoons spent at the beach, which will soon be upon us. There's lots to look forward to in the not-too-distant future, including the Newcastle Spring Racing Carnival, Mattara Festival and various food and wine soirees – and that's just in the next few weeks! What a time to be alive.

Bringing the government to heel over Williamtown woes

J

ust over the Stockton Bridge lies the sleepy suburb of Fullerton Cove.

The wide, open fields and presence of horses, sheep and cattle give it an idyllic countryside feel.

The lush green grass, however, belies a dirty little secret.

When resident Lisa McDonald noticed both her dogs were getting sick, she knew something wasn’t right. Her 14-year-old cattle dog Ned

was slowing up.

Mrs McDonald initially thought it was just old age, until the vet ran tests and discovered Ned had lymphoma.

When her six-year-old dog Chuckie was diagnosed with the same disease, alarm bells rang.

“Chuckie was only six, so it was unusual to see cancer in a dog this young,” she explained.

Mrs McDonald lives inside the Red Zone, the area contaminated by PFAS fire suppressant from the nearby Williamtown RAAF Base.

Sadly, both Ned and Chuckie died last year, within a fortnight of each other.

And, Mrs McDonald is not the only resident who has lost their beloved pets.

Her neighbours have all lost dogs to varying health conditions, and they suspect it’s the carcinogenic PFAS. “I’ve noticed an increase in cancer

and illnesses,” Mrs McDonald told Newcastle Weekly.

“Cushing’s disease, lymphoma, bone cancer – just in this street [Fullerton Cove Road] alone.

“I love living here, it’s so close to the beach and there’s room for our horses.

“It’s easy to get out if you’re renting, but we have a mortgage and own our house.

“The pets didn’t ask for this, they don’t deserve this. They’re like our children.”

Federal MP for Paterson Meryl Swanson wore a red ribbon in Parliament last week and reminded Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull that the government was the only hope for those living in the Red Zone.

Ms Swanson invited Mr Turnbull to her electorate to meet those whose lives have been tainted by PFAS. - Alice Hennen

news Two big wins and a tight tussle in election race

Brace for coming bushfire season

The mayoral race has produced big wins for Newcastle’s re-elected lord mayor Nuatali Nelmes and Port Stephens’ newcomer Ryan Palmer.

Voters flocked to the polls at the weekend for the local government elections.

As of Tuesday afternoon, Labor’s candidate, Cr Nelmes, had attracted 42.71% of first-preference votes, with her nearest rival, independent Kath Elliott, in second on 21.19%.

Cr Nelmes, who was initially elected lord mayor in November 2014 after Jeff McCloy’s departure, became the first Hunter winner when polls closed on Saturday.

Over in Port Stephens, voters showed no hesitation in anointing Mr Palmer as the successor to retired

After the driest winter in 15 years, Hunter residents have been warned of challenging conditions ahead as bushfire season approaches.

Two bushfire hotspots in the region – Medowie and Mulbring, near Cessnock – will be hosting a Get Ready Weekend at their fire stations. Residents can visit the local brigades to pick up vital fire safety information.

Medowie Fire Station, located at 47B Ferodale Road, Medowie, will be open from 10am to 2pm this Saturday 16 September, while Mulbring Fire Station, which can be found at 1 Wood Street, Mulbring, is open during the same hours on both days over the weekend.

When preparing for the bushfire danger period, there are a few simple steps you can take to make sure you are fire ready.

Some of these include: trimming overhanging trees and shrubs, mowing your lawn and removing cut grass, clearing and removing debris and leaves from gutters, and ensuring you have a hose or hoses that can cover the perimeter of your home.

incumbent Bruce MacKenzie.

In his maiden bid for office, Mr Palmer secured 35.05% of firstpreference votes.

The independent candidate was comfortably in front of second-placed Sally Dover, who earned 17.85% of the vote.

While both Newcastle and Port Stephens delivered emphatic results, it proved to be a much tighter tussle for the top spot at Maitland.

Labor’s Loretta Baker sat slightly ahead of independent Philip Penfold as Newcastle Weekly went to print on Tuesday.

Cr Baker had pulled 31.36% of the votes, with Cr Penfold on 28.22%.

Newcastle and Port Stephens’ council elections were managed by the NSW Electoral Commission, while Maitland administered its own election.

news Sheer tenacity behind spelling bee success All it took was for people to believe in him.

James Black suffers from autism, cerebral palsy and epilepsy.

It wasn’t an easy road for him to access mainstream education but, after encouragement from his parents and a psychologist, he eventually gained entry into Hamilton Public School.

“We were told he could never contemplate going to a mainstream school and, if he hadn’t been supported so much, then he wouldn’t be achieving these wondrous things,” James’ mother, Sharon, says.

“I guess the main message I’ve got is: Don’t listen to the first person who says you will never achieve much.”

James, a Year 5 student, became one of only two children from the school to reach this week’s regional

12

finals of the Premier’s Spelling Bee competition.

Despite being largely nonverbal, he communicates through typing words into a computer, which are then read out to the judges by his support teacher.

“Our family is lucky to have a great support network of therapists, school and medical professionals, without which, this type of thing for a kid like James would not be possible,” Sharon adds.

“His dad, Andrew, and I are very proud of him and just want him to show everyone what can be achieved through sheer tenacity.”

James’ passion for words started from an early age, and he can often be found quietly reading through his library of books.

He is one of about 153,000 students who have taken part in

Koala project’s big windfall The Port Stephens Koala Project has been handed an additional $30,000 by the state government.

The project will develop a fire management plan for koalas in their habitat in the Port Stephens area, while also engaging the broader community in koala awareness programs.

Port Stephens Council general manager, Wayne Wallis, says the threat to the region’s koala population is “very real”.

“This funding from the state government will support council’s efforts toward engaging the community on awareness of koalas, their habitats, and the challenges they face,” he says.

The grant came through the Saving our Species program. More than $1.8 million has already been invested in koala conservation.

news Kahibah celebrates centenary When a Kahibah local handed a real estate flyer to post office manager Scott Evans, a little piece of history was discovered.

The flyer, dated April 1917, advertised land blocks for sale in the fledgling township.

A stop on the former railway now known as the Fernleigh Track Cycleway, Kahibah became a hub of activity, with orchards, dairy farms, a quarry, as well as the ever-present passenger and coal trains shuttling people and goods along the colliery railway line.

These days, the Lake Macquarie suburb boasts a number of small businesses, and is the gateway to the lush Glenrock Lagoon. It’s close to Charlestown, but just far enough off the highway to offer some peace and quiet from the hustle and bustle of the city.

After some research, Mr Evans

and the Kahibah Business and Community Alliance discovered that the first block of land was sold on 16 September 1917, and quickly set about organising an event to mark the centenary of this occasion.

Proudly displayed in the front window of Kahibah Post Office, the old flyer has evoked memories of yesteryear among local residents.

Mr Evans explained that the coal mines in the area yielded a wealth of stories.

“People used to roam the area, sometimes riding the mine horses and taking their lives into their own hands. Other stories mentioned by visitors to the local post office have included memories of orchards, dairy farming, a clay quarry and the colliery railroad, better known these days as the Fernleigh Track Cycleway,” he said.

The centenary is the perfect

time for Lake Mac Libraries and the Sustainable Neighbourhood for Greater Charlestown to launch a local oral history project.

Residents can come and share their stories, which will be preserved and archived for future generations to discover.

The Kahibah Centerary will take

place on Saturday 16 September, from 10am to 2pm. Country music star and Kahibah native Catherine Britt headlines a showcase of local musical talent, and there will be displays of old photos and stories from residents, as well as market stalls and kids’ activities.

Connect to combat loneliness In today’s fast-paced world, it can seem like everyone is only out for themselves. Feeling isolated and disconnected from other people and society as a whole, mental health issues can snowball out of control when there’s nobody to talk to.

Today (Thursday 14 September) is R U OK? Day, and it’s a chance to connect with others and support

people who are going through a tough time.

Belmont Neighbourhood Centre is throwing open its doors for a community event for volunteers and anyone who wants to connect and chat.

Disability support service Ability Links is showing participants how to make a delicious salad in a jar, and

discuss mental health.

Centre coordinator Chris Brown says it’s important for people to check in with each other, even if it’s simply asking the question, “Are you okay?”

“At Belmont Neighbourhood Centre, R U OK? Day is a chance for our volunteer team to check up on each other’s mental health and look after each other in the workplace,” he says.

“For a long time, mental health has been pushed under the rug. We are happy to be bringing mental health out into the sunshine.”

Join in at the free event today from 12pm to 1.30pm at Belmont Neighbourhood Centre, 359 Pacific Highway Belmont North.

If you need help, phone Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Maitland City Council will receive a $22,000 crime prevention grant from the state government to reduce malicious damage and improve community safety at Metford Recreation Reserve.

A fence is set to be installed to stop the recreational fields being used as an unauthorised race track by motorbikes and cars, which are tearing up the ground and endangering others.

“Metford Oval has seen its fair share of damage recently, so this funding announcement is very welcome news for our community,” outgoing Maitland mayor, Cr Peter Blackmore, says.

The reserve is home to East Maitland Little Athletics Club, where membership numbers have fallen dramatically over the past three years due to ongoing safety issues.

Wallsend Town Coordinator Rhonda Campbell says the local business community views the Mattara Festival’s move west as a win for all concerned.

After more than half a century within Newcastle’s inner city, the popular event now has a new home at Wallsend Park.

And, Ms Campbell believes it will be a central and convenient spot for Hunter residents to enjoy the festivities from Saturday 30 September to Sunday 8 October.

“The picturesque parkland [has] provided plenty of room for the festival’s expanded program in 2017,” she says.

“Importantly, Wallsend also provides the convenience of a local business and main street district, offering dozens of complementary shopping, lifestyle, and eating options.”

The upcoming festival has a non-stop program of free family entertainment and activities during the spring school holidays.

The 56th edition will operate from 10am to 4pm each day, with highlights to include energetic stage entertainment, amusement rides, a baby animal farm, circus, sideshows, show bags, market stalls, and prizes for children of all ages.

Plus, on Sunday 1 October, you can stay a bit later to be entertained by the popular Jumpin’ Jukebox Rock and Roll Band from 4pm to 7pm.

The sky will then light up with fireworks to officially launch the festival.

Entry is free. Tickets for carnival rides and a full program of activities and entertainment are available at mattarafestival.org.au

sport Country polo at its finest

Wirragulla Polo Club president Beau Blundell at a previous edition of the Hunter Polo Challenge.

The 2017 Hunter Polo Challenge is shaping up as one of the best yet.

Wirragulla Polo Club has been hosting the event at Dungog for the past eight years.

And, captain Jock Mackay expects this weekend’s edition to be another tough contest.

“We currently have 12 teams from around the state booked to play, which is a good indication of the anticipation of our event,” he says.

“The level of polo will be high, with some competitors very keen to win trophies and defeat previous winning opponents.”

As a key member of the Australian team, Mackay will be working on his skills in the lead-up to the Polo World Championships in Sydney next month.

In addition to the games

that will be played, Hunter Polo Challenge guests can expect gourmet food vendors, an allday barbecue, plenty of outdoor space for the children, as well as activities to get the crowd involved such as the quintessential ‘stomping of the divots’, fashions on the field, and a number of prizes.

Proceeds from the event will go to the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service.

Entry on both days – Saturday 16 September and Sunday 17 September – is $10 per person, while children under 16 years of age are free.

The Wirragulla Polo Club ground is located at Tabbil Creek, Cemetery Road, Dungog. Gates open at 10am.

Eating well for diabetes

Accredited Practicing Dietitian and Credentialed Diabetes Educator, Melissa Vassallo, talks to a client.

There is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to managing diabetes.

But, by choosing healthy foods and understanding your dietary needs, you can better manage your blood glucose levels, as well as your body weight.

Here at Hunter Diabetes Centre, we take a personalised approach to your nutritional requirements, with our dietitians tailoring your diet and working with you towards setting goals that meet your needs and lifestyle. With our expert advice and ongoing support, you’ll be able to integrate healthy eating into your everyday life with ease.

Understanding Nutrition Labels Knowing the nutritional value of your food will allow you to make healthy choices with confidence. Through a consultation with one of our dietitians, you can learn how to read food labels and understand what is in different products.

Preventing Portion Distortion Being aware of your ideal portion sizes will allow you to dish up a balanced meal with ease. Portion

control is essential for maintaining a healthy diet, and an invaluable tool for people with Type 1 and 2 Diabetes wanting to lose weight. Our dietitians will defi ne your appropriate portions, and demonstrate simple techniques to help you measure out the right size every time.

Carbohydrate Counting A key part of managing diabetes is matching carbohydrate intake to your insulin dosage.

Our dietitians will walk you through the effect carbohydrates have on your blood glucose levels, and teach you how to count the carbs in your food. This is also a great tool for portion control and those wanting to lose weight.

Strategies to Reduce Non Hungry Eating There are many reasons we eat other than to nourish our body or satisfy hunger. This may be coping with stress, difficult emotions, fatigue or boredom, or simply eating because others are or the food is there. This type of eating often hinders our long term dietary goals. Our dietitians can help you develop strategies to reduce your

non-hungry eating cues and improve your dietary habits long term.

Your Team for a Healthy Life Our team is on hand to help you make the best nutritional choices whilst still being able to enjoy the food you eat. The health goals you can reach with the knowledge and support of our dietitians will help you live your best, healthiest life.

Do You Have Depression?

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).

rTMS is Now Available At Toronto Private Hospital we’ve introduced 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.

Look who's new at the Hunter's zoo Brace yourself for cuteness overload at Hunter Valley Zoo this month.

As spring arrives, so do the baby animals.

Tortoises, emus and marmosets (monkey species) have recently been welcomed into the world.

And, you can catch a glimpse of them all, plus plenty more, during the upcoming school holidays.

Hunter Valley Zoo primate keeper, Daisy Murphy, says it’s an exciting time of the year.

“We’ve got a new species

coming soon, but we’re keeping that a secret at the moment,” she says teasingly.

“It’s something that will bring a fair bit of attention because it is pretty cool, and we’ll have heaps of shows and interactive opportunities for kids as well.”

Another highlight will be the annual health check and feeding of the alligators for the first time this season.

“That’s quite a big thing,” Ms Murphy adds.

“It’ll happen in the first week of

the holidays. We drain the dams so that we can go in and catch [the alligators].

“The biggest one is over 200 kilograms, so it takes about six guys to catch him.”

Hunter Valley Zoo will be open every day during the school holidays, with at least eight shows on offer.

The zoo is located at 138 Lomas Lane, Nulkaba (near Cessnock).

Admission prices are generally $29 for adults, $23 for concession, and $15 for children (aged three to 15).

It’s as close as you will get to experiencing a Michael Jackson concert.

Texan William Hall has been performing since the age of three, and his love of the ‘King of Pop’ started at a young age.

He is now recognised worldwide as one of the best Michael Jackson tribute artists, embodying the voice, dance character and persona of the legendary musician.

“I’m just thrilled to be able to put on this type of show for people who might not have seen Michael perform live,” Hall tells Newcastle Weekly.

“A lot of people probably watched him on television, but to see Michael live was a whole other aspect.

“I’ve been doing this for a while and, over the years, I have been able to recreate the symbol

A Frank representation of a young girl’s life The Diary of Anne Frank is perhaps the most well-known story to come out of World War II. When Adolf Hitler’s Nazi regime forced the Frank family into hiding, teenager Anne Frank kept a daily diary of the triumphs and tribulations of life in the cramped quarters that her family shared with other Jewish fugitives.

Maitland Repertory Theatre brings to life Anne’s experiences as a Jewish teenager hiding from those who seek to destroy her family, with their adaptation of The Diary of Anne Frank, directed by Guil Noronha and Lesley Coombes.

The production stars Abbey Matt as Anne Frank, Ian Robinson as Otto Frank, Dimity Eveleens as Edith Frank and Giverny Burke as Margot Frank.

It is an uplifting representation of the hardships and victories of the Frank and Van Damme families, as they adjust to life in a secret annexe.

Opening night is on Wednesday 20 September at Maitland Repertory Theatre, 244 High Street Maitland (opposite Maitland Town Hall).

Complimentary cheese and wine will be served at 7:30pm, with the performance starting at 8pm.

The Diary of Anne Frank is set to go from Wednesday 20 September to Saturday 7 October, at 8pm, with two Sunday matinee performances

and add different inks to get a variety of vivid colours on the pot.

Step 4: Keep dipping the pot into the water until the whole surface is covered and you are happy with the pattern – remember to not twist or dunk it completely as this will disturb the pattern.

Potted colour

This is an edited extract from Living With Plants by Sophi Lee, published by Hardie Grant Books $29.99, available in stores nationally. Photography: © Leonie Freeman.

You can use a new or old terracotta plant pot for this howto. Either way, make sure the pot is clean and unglazed, or the inks will not stick.

Step 1: Drip a couple of drops of each of your chosen colours of marbling ink into the bucket of water, then use a stick to swirl the inks around.

You will need •

3-4 different coloured marbling inks

•

Large bucket filled with clean water

•

A stick

•

Unglazed terracotta plant pot

•

Rubber gloves (optional)

•

Newspaper or plastic sheet

•

Paint brush

•

Sealant

•

Plant of choice

Step 5: Stand the pot upright on some newspaper or plastic sheeting to protect the surface from the ink. Leave it to dry for at least 3 hours for the marble ink to set.

Step 6: Using a paint brush, coat the dry pot with sealant to protect the plant from any toxins in the marbling inks. Leave the sealant to dry completely (about 2 hours).

Step 2: Hold the pot on its side and place it in the water, keeping your hand steady to avoid twisting the pot. Then, again without twisting the pot, lift it all the way out of the water. Feel free to wear rubber gloves for this part (but I prefer to get messy!).

Step 7: Once the sealant is dry, pot up your favourite plant and display with pride.

Whetting your appetite ahead of ramble One of the loveliest events on the spring garden calendar is the Maitland Garden Ramble, being held this weekend from 10am to 4pm on Saturday and Sunday.

The ramble is initiated by the Maitland Black and White Committee who donate the funds to Vision Australia. This year, the ramble will introduce eight new gardens, which will be diverse for those gardeners who have previously visited the beautiful gardens on show.

Now to whet your appetites with a brief look at each garden. ‘Zetta Park’ has been created over the last 20 years – a short walk down to the Paterson River leads to the orchard.

The garden features hedges and circular rose gardens planted

PICK OF THE WEEK The Lego Movie

The Truman Show

Friday, GO!, 7.45pm, PG (2014) You’ll find it hard not to fall in love with this flick. Animated films are a dime a dozen, but The Lego Movie stands bricks above everyone else with its superb attention to detail and its clever and diverse range of humour. A familyfriendly movie that is consistently funny, it will have the adults in fits of giggles while the kids will be enamoured by the special effects and cute characters. Awesome.

Friday

Saturday, GO!, 8.50pm, PG (1998) Nothing is real in the sedentary life of deskbound Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey, pictured).

Unbeknown to poor Truman, his life is one big soap opera and the world is his audience.

But what happens when the charade is broken? That’s the crux of Peter Weir’s haunting assessment of the decline of modern television, based on Kiwi director Andrew Niccol’s savvy script. Touching, funny and perhaps clever enough to reverberate for decades to come

PRIME7 (ch 6)

My Super Ex-Girlfriend

Monday, ELEVEN, 8.30pm, M (2006) Trying to lampoon superheroes the way he did spooks in Ghostbusters, director Ivan Reitman’s wryly ridiculous comedy sees likable New Yorker Matt (Luke Wilson) become smitten with bookish art gallery worker Jenny (Uma Thurman, pictured). But when the pair’s initial chemistry turns sour, Matt breaks it off. Big mistake. It turns out that Jenny is a superhero by the name of G-Girl and manifests her heartache by making her regretful ex’s life a living hell. Uma throws herself into playing the sassy, sexy crime fighter and Wilson is his reliably low-key, humorous self.

15 September 1984

ARIES: MAR 21 - APR 20

CANCER: JUN 22 - JUL 22

LIBRA: SEP 24 - OCT 23

CAPRICORN: DEC 22 - JAN 20

Venus in Leo indicates that a romantic flirtation may have a surprise outcome but don’t let a small matter or disagreement spoil the chances of this developing into something quite important. You’re likely to listen to advice from loved ones rather than insisting on having your own way.

Opportunities for advancement are all around and it seems those who are close to you are also being blessed with the chance to take new pathways and expand their horizons.

You will encourage one another to take what fate is offering you and make the best of it.

The Sun is in your 12th house so, whatever you do, take time out for yourself. Avoid making contact with workmates about work while you’re off duty, because even over the phone you could find yourself in the middle of a disagreement. Don’t take any chances with money.

You seek independence and woe betide anyone who gets in your way; they will be trampled underfoot.

There really is no limit how far you can go once you’ve decided where you want to go. What your next move should be needs to be considered seriously at the moment.

TAURUS: APR 21 - MAY 21

LEO: JUL 23 – AUG 23

SCORPIO: OCT 24 - NOV 22

AQUARIUS: JAN 21 - FEB19

With Venus in Leo until 21 September a vibrant social mood will colour this week and it’s a time when you’ll find it relatively easy to find support and affection. Your enthusiasm is contagious, but you need to keep your feet on the ground.

Focus on enjoying yourself.

There’s a possibility of you finding a new ambition or objective in life that fills you with enthusiasm, vitality and hope for the future. Friends will be very supportive and so, if you need any favours from them, this is the time to ask, so shelve that Scorpio pride.

Get any official matters resolved so you can breathe more easily. Above all else, you must hang on to your wonderful sense of humour. There’s no point in dragging out arguments to the bitter end because it will only result in everyone and everything turning sour.

VIRGO: AUG 24 - SEP 23

SAGITTARIUS: NOV 23 - DEC 21

PISCES: FEB 20 - MAR 20

A good sense of timing and an enterprising spirit will help you to make progress and restore confidence.

Expect recognition for imaginative ideas which you communicate and apply well during the year ahead.

Singles, this is a great time for visiting a club as it could lead to romance.

Quite naturally, you want to be top dog, but perhaps you are forgetting to look at the needs of those who are offering you real support. Be confident and think positively, but do try hard not to tread on other people’s toes. Give attention to loved ones.

Sorting out your financial life is of major importance at this time. Loved ones will offer some great advice which should be followed. Should you be in a professional partnership then be more open-minded about the other person’s opinions. The same applies to your personal life.

With Venus in Leo it’s a great time to spruce up your home or to arrange a celebration at home.

For singles, it’s a happy time for romance and for get-togethers with friends. You may be introduced to some new contacts through a loved one.

GEMINI: MAY 22 - JUN 21 One or two members of your family will need your help; perhaps they have been struggling on alone, but now really do need a helping hand.

It seems as though you will be meeting new people who will affect your life in a major way.

FOOTBALL It’s given me a career, many wonderful memories and friends for life. I’ve always enjoyed the comradery of a team environment and love the way the game builds community, bringing people of all backgrounds together.

My favourite things FAMILY Christine and my boys Scott and Stuart – the most important people in my life. We arrived in Australia as a young family, only having each other as we settled into our new home. Today, Christine and I are the proud grandparents of Mitchell and Hayden.

SCOTLAND My heritage is important to me. I’m a proud Scotsman (originally from Galston) and still take regular trips home to visit family and friends.

It’s a beautiful country, but I’ll take the weather in my adopted home any day!

Lawrie McKinna NEWCASTLE JETS CEO

Lawrie McKinna has been involved with Australian football for more than 30 years as a player, coach and administrator.

Lawrie moved to Australia from Scotland in 1986 following 87 appearances with Scottish Football League side Kilmarnock, before being involved with a number of Sydney-based NPL clubs, including Blacktown, Wollongong and Parramatta Power. He was the inaugural coach of the Central Coast Mariners, taking the club to the A-League grand final in 2005/06 and 2007/08, with the club also crowned premiers in the same year. The popular local identity then turned to a career in politics, serving four terms as mayor of Gosford City from 2012 to 2016. These days, Lawrie is an adopted (and proud) Novocastrian, as he works with the local football community to promote the game throughout the Hunter.

WINNING I love setting goals and achieving them, whatever the task. I’ve always relished working hard to be the best. The sense of achievement that success can bring is second-to-none, and I’m looking forward to seeing the Jets put some wins on the board this season.

NEWCASTLE My new home town, and what a town it is!

Christine (my wife) and I love the sense of community, the city and the culture. We’ve been made to feel welcome from the minute we arrived; it’s a wonderful place to call home.
