This week...

From the editor In my quest to find "slow" in my busy life, I tried yin yoga last weekend. Yin yoga is slow and passive, with postures that are held for a few minutes at a time (which, if you're a beginner, like me, roughly translates to eternity). Needless to say, I was stiff for a few days.

I'm one of those people who struggle to switch off. I realised this, mid-downward-facing dog, when I caught myself craning my neck for a glimpse at the TV that was on in the studio behind me.

But, I figure, it's like faking a smile: even if I'm doing it for appearances, surely if I keep at it, I'll start to feel the benefits… Right?

Even if you're a mindfulness master and totally have this calm thing down pat, Christmas time and the holiday season is enough to put even the coolest cucumber on edge. Shopping centres are getting busier, the social calendar is filling up, and, of course, there's the ever-mounting pressure to plan the perfect soiree for the day it all culminates in: Christmas Day. This year, I think I'll make a conscious choice for minimal fuss.

Good food and my tribe are all I need to have an enjoyable day. Maybe the yoga is having an effect on me?

Namaste, Newcastle Weekly readers.

We hope you enjoy this week's edition.

Silence breeds violence

THIRTY3SOUTH Films managing director, Owen Burns, is helping to address domestic violence this White Ribbon Day. Photo: Peter Stoop

“I will stand up, speak out and act to prevent men’s violence against women.”

That is the White Ribbon oath.

But what practical steps can we take, when we witness or hear of a man perpetrating violence against a woman, to ensure our voice is heard?

That is what Newcastle-based THIRTY3SOUTH Films managing director, Owen Burns, aims to address in his latest production.

Burns has volunteered to produce a domestic violence awareness video, to be screened at the annual Hunter White Ribbon Day Breakfast at Wests New Lambton on Friday 25 November.

It was inspired by a scenario he recently encountered with his two young sons in Newcastle.

They drove past two people fighting in the street – a man being violent towards a woman.

Burns tried to shield his sons and kept driving but they briefly saw the outburst.

When the boys asked their dad what had happened, Burns did his best to explain it and why it was wrong.

One son then asked why they didn’t do anything to stop it – a poignant moment that stuck with Burns.

He believes many men don’t know how to safely intervene, so he set about producing the video for the White Ribbon Day breakfast.

Hunter White Ribbon Committee chairman Jon Chin says male violence towards women is a male problem, and they have the power to help end this “insidious scourge” in our community.

“It is not enough for men to not be violent; we must not stand by when we know violence is occurring,” Mr Chin says.

“The most important thing is not to be silent; not to keep the problem hidden.

“Silence gives perpetrators oxygen.”

During the breakfast, a panel will join a discussion led by guest speaker, Dr Angela Jay, who was doused in petrol and stabbed 11 times by a man she met on the dating app Tinder, and lived to tell the tale.

Proceeds from this year’s breakfast will go to Hunter-based charity Got Your Back Sista, which helps women experiencing domestic violence.

Tickets cost $35 each and include a cooked breakfast. Phone 4935 1287 or visit proticket.com. au/Events/Details/4787 - Georgia Osland

news Program supports mental health In an Australian-first, local community housing provider, Compass Housing, has launched a mental health and suicide prevention awareness program for its 9,500 tenants.

The Shout Out program will include messages via SMS, Facebook, newsletters, and forums.

Frontline staff and tenants will also be trained to recognise, and respond to, suicidality and mental health issues.

Former tenant and chair of Compass Housing’s Tenant Involvement Panel, Mark O’Dwyer, backed the initiative.

Mr O’Dwyer, who lost his brother to suicide, believes that, like all Australians, social and community housing tenants need to look after their mental health.

“Research shows that people from low socioeconomic backgrounds experience higher rates of suicide,” Mr O’Dwyer says.

“Many social and community housing tenants have previously dealt with housing

stress and other issues in their lives, which negatively impact on their mental health.

“Programs like Shout Out will benefit tenants because they will have greater awareness and understanding of their mental health and the health of other tenants.”

The recently-released 2016 national suicide data shows eight lives are lost to suicide in Australia every day.

About 100,000 Australians experience suicide ideation each year. It remains the leading cause of death for all Australians aged between 15 and 44.

Hunter-based Compass Housing is an international community housing provider, managing more than 4,600 properties in Australia and New Zealand, as well as community development projects in Australia, New Zealand and Vanuatu.

The Shout Out program is being supported by the state government’s Suicide Prevention Fund until June 2020.

‘People power’ behind hospital decision The state government’s decision to provide X-ray services onsite at Tomaree Community Hospital from early next year has been hailed as an “example of people power”.

Port Stephens state MP Kate Washington praised the community after countless hours of campaigning.

“The community has spoken; they needed X-ray services at Tomaree Community Hospital and it’s finally being delivered,” she says.

“This is about quicker, more efficient treatment – and less travelling for basic diagnostic tests for local residents.

“Federal MP Meryl Swanson and I have been fighting alongside our community for on-site medical imaging services.

“I thank the hard-working doctors and nurses, who have been doing all that they can without adequate resources for too long.”

Currently, local residents can only access X-ray services off-site in Nelson Bay during business hours, Monday to Friday.

Outside these hours, patients must be rushed to Newcastle or Bulahdelah for diagnostic imaging.

The new X-ray service is due to open in February 2018 following various modifications to the hospital, including a power upgrade.

We will be opening a brand new aged care home in Wallsend, Newcastle in February 2018.

Wallsend Manor Aged Care will provide quality care and offer permanent residential accommodation, dementia specific services and respite.

The iconic Newcastle Co‑operative Store in Hunter Street will be demolished as plans for a bus interchange move forward.

The Newcastle Bus Interchange Review of Environmental Factors (REF) was approved by the state government’s Transport for NSW body following a four‑week public display period between June and August.

Feedback led to a suite of measures aimed at commemorating and conserving the history of the former Store building.

This includes the establishment of a Heritage Reference Group and the preparation of a Heritage Interpretation Strategy.

“We know this site is important to the social and cultural history

of Newcastle, and we plan to make sure its legacy is recognised in any future development on the site,” Revitalising Newcastle program director, Michael Cassel, said.

“We’ve taken community feedback on board to make sure the future bus interchange recognises Newcastle’s history, and is ready for its future.”

The Newcastle Bus Interchange is part of more than $650 million being invested through the program.

The project conditions of approval also require the preparation of an archival recording and heritage reuse strategy prior to demolition at the site.

Construction of the bus interchange is planned to start in mid‑to‑late 2018.

Light rail construction continues in the city Hunter and Scott streets between Crown and Perkins streets are now closed to traffic.

Detours also remain in place on Hunter Street between Auckland and Darby streets.

Pedestrian access has been maintained and all businesses in the area are still open.

While temporary traffic diversions are in place, Honeysuckle Drive, Wharf Road and King Street remain available for road users.

Please allow extra travel time and be prepared.

news University rewarded for leading research

Project not just a pipedream A single watermain lies on the sea floor in the Swansea Channel.

If it were to burst, every home, school and business in the area would be without water for up to a week.

But Hunter Water has moved to address the “unacceptable risk” and improve security for more than 4,000 properties south of Swansea Bridge.

The organisation is drilling a 300-metre long, 20-metre deep tunnel beneath the channel as part of a $3 million project, which will remove the threat of residents running out of water.

“If the current pipeline breaks in the underwater section at Swansea Channel, it could take a week to repair using divers and underwater equipment,” Hunter Water executive manager for investment and innovation, Darren Cleary, says.

“Although the reservoirs in Swansea and nearby suburbs are larger than most, our modelling shows some residents would run out of water within 24 hours of a break.

“To remove [this] risk, a second pipeline is

being tunnelled underground from Little Pelican to Swansea.

“Residents will have two connections to Hunter Water’s network, essentially providing a safety net in case of a break.”

Mr Cleary says that, while the existing pipeline utilised the best technology of its time, an innovative technique called horizontal directional drilling will allow the new pipeline to be placed deep beneath the channel, away from tidal movements and salt water.

The Swansea Channel watermain crossing project will be completed by Christmas.

The University of Newcastle has secured more than $6.7 million in Australian Research Council funding for 2018.

Researchers were awarded $6.3 million last week to fund 16 Discovery Projects and $365,000 for a prestigious Discovery Early Career Researcher Award.

Senior deputy vice-chancellor (research and innovation), professor Kevin Hall, said this outcome, in such a competitive funding round, was recognition of the world-leading research being conducted at the university.

“The scope of the successful projects is a testament to the diverse and innovative work being undertaken, and I would like to congratulate all the successful recipients,” he said.

“I look forward to their critical work shaping a better future for our globe.”

A Hunter dry cleaner has become the first business to formally partner with a local environmental pilot program that diverts soft plastics from landfill.

Pride Dry Cleaning in Islington has joined forces with motherof-two Samantha Cross, whom keen Newcastle Weekly readers would remember was behind the installation of a world-first playground bench, made entirely of recycled soft plastics, at Biddabah Public School last year.

Through her Plastic Police Partnerships program, Ms Cross is driving a soft-plastics recycling initiative in conjunction with schools, councils and businesses, which aims to turn scrunchable plastic that cannot be recycled, into useful products by collecting, baling and storing them until they can be used.

Pride Dry Cleaning owner Jennie Lyons says she has been looking for something like this for years, and wants to help reduce the impact of plastic beyond her business.

“We are happy to accept dry cleaning plastic and any other clean, scrunchable soft plastics from anyone, not just our customers, at our Maitland Road, Islington store,” she says.

“If our small business is recycling a bale a fortnight, imagine how much plastic from other dry cleaners and other businesses is going to landfill.”

The Plastic Police Partnerships program is exploring, trialling and developing local-end markets for products that can be made from recycled soft plastics.

Dungog and Singleton councils, plus several schools, have already joined the program.

Stroke survivor strides ahead Sarah Bleechmore remembers it vividly.

After battling through a week of what she believed were migraines, the then 17-year-old finally decided to go to hospital.

Sick, shaking and vomiting, she was handed a bag of fluids and anti-nausea treatment before being sent home.

“But, when I got home, I collapsed in a bindi patch,” she recalled.

Sarah had suffered a minor stroke. She lost 10% of her peripheral vision and the muscle mass in the left-hand side of her body decreased dramatically.

“I was so lucky that it wasn’t permanent and I got my strength back, but I lost a heap of weight as well,” she said.

“It was a life-changing day.”

That rang true three years later when doctors discovered five brain tumours during a regular check-up.

Despite the challenges, Sarah considers herself extremely lucky.

And, she’s determined to raise awareness for other stroke survivors and their families.

The Novocastrian is taking part in this month’s Stride4Stroke event – an annual fundraiser that aims to prevent, treat and beat the condition.

She believes there’s an alarming lack of knowledge on one of the nation’s biggest killers.

“There are so many signs that people ignore because they don’t know what to do or how to tell,” she said.

The Stroke Foundation recommends using the acronym FAST (Facial drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulties, and Time to call emergency services).

Belmont Baths to be reinstated The Belmont community is a step closer to having its Brooks Parade baths reinstated after Lake Macquarie council completed a concept design for the new swimming and recreation area.

The council voted earlier this year to build a new jetty and protected swimming enclosure to replace the finger jetty that was destroyed in the April 2015 super storm.

The facility will incorporate protective mesh on the remaining three sides to form a border.

“Residents and visitors have been reluctant [to swim there] in recent years due to a perception of danger, so our priority is to create a safe area that can be delivered quickly and will encourage people to swim again in the lake,” mayor Kay Fraser said.

Work is expected to start midway through next year.

news Hunter school engineers win

Circus’ creativity inspires students Michael Riddell was determined to bring creativity back into the region after the devastating 1989 Newcastle earthquake.

So, the Lake Macquarie native joined forces with The Great Moscow Circus.

“They came and worked with us, and it’s been a beautiful friendship,” he tells Newcastle Weekly.

“The [circus] shows kids that you learn by doing.”

Mr Riddell has developed a long-term vision, which he brought, along with the world-renowned circus, to Morisset High School last week.

He believes it will help inspire students to chase their dreams.

“One of the girls came up to me and said she’d never been to a circus in her life because her family couldn’t afford it, so her dream happened,” he says.

“Morisset is expected to be a big growth area, and the school is planning ahead.

“There are some kids here who haven’t experienced employment, so they’re focusing on things like job creation, tourism, and multimedia production.”

Bronwyn White, Keith Leyshon, and Michael Riddell.

Deputy principal Keith Leyshon says the circus’ visit supported the school’s ‘Big Picture’ program.

He says the initiative aims to “fast-track” the learning process for students.

“It’s a huge movement in changing the way students engage with learning,” he says.

“The circus is very creative and it can plant a seed; a lot of people have dreams but don’t know how to get there.

“So it’s about utilising your talents and being creative and innovative – that’s what we want to get across to our kids.”

A Maitland high school has won the Science and Engineering Challenge 2017 national final.

All Saints College, St Peter’s Campus finished first with a score of 1,174, while Tasmania’s Launceston Christian School claimed the runner-up spot with 1,072 points and Victoria’s Bendigo South East College came third with 984.

Program director, Dr Terry Burns, said the competition was always of a high standard.

“But this year, in particular, I was impressed by the enthusiasm and innovative solutions demonstrated by the competing schools,” he said.

The national final saw eight winning schools from each state go head-to-head in a series of challenging STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) activities.

news New vision for schools starts to take shape Australia’s oldest school – the iconic Newcastle East Public – is set to benefit from a major upgrade.

Plans for the project include: the construction of four new permanent classrooms; a covered outdoor learning area/communal gathering space; the replacement of the existing roof of the heritage building; and the removal of two demountable classrooms to provide better outdoor space.

The work is about to go to tender, with construction due to start next year and completion expected in 2021.

Apart from Newcastle East, another of the region’s schools, Hunter Sports High, is being transformed through a $45 million redevelopment.

Education Minister Rob Stokes visited the Gateshead school last week to inspect the start of works.

Stage one includes: 26 general classrooms; a science laboratory and specialist learning spaces; a sports and exercising complex; canteen facilities; and an administration block.

“This exciting redevelopment demonstrates the strength of our commitment to providing a high quality of education in the best possible learning environments for students in the Hunter,” Mr Stokes said.

Hunter Sports High has a history of producing the region’s best sporting talent, including rugby league stars Greg Inglis, Kade Snowden, and Tyrone Roberts.

news Mums make it happen They banded together at a time when they needed each other most, and, now, Newcastle & Hunter Mums will stand united to help others.

Administrated by Bec Tansey, Caroline Minords and Cassie Grieve, the Facebook-based group was founded in May 2015.

Bec had just moved to Newcastle from Brisbane, and, pregnant with her third child, was struggling to find a mothers’ group where she felt welcome.

What started with 10 members has since grown to a community of more than 8,000 mums in the Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and greater Hunter Region.

They organise regular meet-ups and use the online forum to discuss everything from rash diagnosis to renovation advice.

One of the other group

administrators, Caroline, joined a year-and-a-half ago after her family relocated from the UK, and found it invaluable.

Now that the group has become well established, and many of the mums have found their niches, Caroline wanted to encourage them to give back to the community.

So, she called the other admins to action to plan a Christmas fundraiser for the Cancer Council.

Her brother, Steve, who still lives in the UK, was diagnosed with melanoma in 2006, which returned earlier this year.

“I felt helpless here, being so far away,” Caroline told Newcastle Weekly.

“Unfortunately, cancer is worldwide, so, while the Cancer Council hasn’t done anything for Steve personally, I know they help other people here who need it.

Newcastle & Hunter Mums administrators Caroline Minords, Bec Tansey and Cassie Grieve. Photo: Peter Stoop

“So, [Newcastle Hunter Mums] came together to make it happen.”

This will be the second fundraiser the group has hosted, after they raised $2,000 for HeartKids Australia at a disco in January.

The Christmas fundraiser, planned for Sunday 3 December from 12pm to 2pm at Charlestown Bowling Club, is shaping up to be bigger and better, with a magician,

Sarah vs The Great Wall of China

Gateshead’s Sarah Williams at Charlestown Bowling Club, where the charity barefoot bowls fundraiser will be held. Photo: Peter Stoop

Conquering The Great Wall of China is a tough enough challenge for anyone to face, let alone someone living with multiple sclerosis.

But, that’s exactly what Gateshead’s Sarah Williams plans to do.

Sarah was diagnosed with the condition, which wreaks havoc on the central nervous system, a decade ago.

It was caused by a lesion on her brain, so big doctors thought it was a tumour, which resulted in severe vision and speech loss.

MS affects sufferers in different ways, but, luckily for Sarah, movement is her biggest ally, having maintained most of her body function.

“I’m better in the mornings; that’s why I get up and exercise then,” she says.

Sarah is a keen City2Surf and Sydney Running Festival participant, stopping at nothing to reach her goals. She goes to the gym most days and loves to set new personal bests.

In 2015, she raised $1,000 for MS Australia through a self-set, 12-hour treadmill challenge she undertook at Planet Fitness Charlestown ahead of the MS Walk and Fun Run.

Now, she’s upping the ante.

In September 2018, Sarah will take on Walk the Wall for MS – a five-day challenge covering five different sections of the 21,196-kilometre Great Wall of China.

Of how many people will be joining her, Sarah is unsure, but what she does know is that she needs to raise $3,500 to make it there.

“I’m doing this because I can walk, and others [with MS] can’t; some are wheelchairbound, and others, like me, have trouble talking,” Sarah says.

To help her reach her fundraising goal, Sarah is hosting a charity barefoot bowls event at Charlestown Bowling Club on Sunday 26 November from 3pm.

news Like mother, like daughter as charities benefit Tamara Ward’s shaved her head for charity before – three times to be exact.

The Charlestown business owner had generously raised funds in the past for the Leukaemia and Princess Charlotte Alopecia foundations.

But, this time, Tamara and her daughter, Livi, opted to support a local not-for-profit organisation, the Newcastle Night Angels, after a phone call with the group’s president, Samantha Banks.

“You often want to give to something, but you’re not sure who to,” Tamara says.

“We had a chat in the workplace and a few people mentioned the Night Angels.

“I rang Sam and straight away, I thought, ‘This is who I want to help out’.”

The Night Angels provide the Hunter’s homeless with food, clothes, toiletries, car maintenance, and temporary or permanent accommodation.

Volunteers work tirelessly, catering for up to 30 people a night, while offering sandwiches, Milo, tea, coffee, and breakfast bags on weekends.

“We’ve handed over $700 to the Night Angels, plus food donations,” Tamara adds.

“And, another $815 has gone to Variety – the Children’s Charity, so it’s been a good little fundraiser.

“Everyone’s been really generous.”

One of Variety’s initiatives, Hair With Heart, encourages donations of hair so they can be made into specialised wigs for those who have lost their own hair due to a medical

Livi and Tamara Ward can’t wipe the smiles off their faces after shaving their heads.

condition such as alopecia or cancer.

It particularly focuses on restoring confidence in children, many of whom become victims of bullying.

The length of hair required to make the wigs is 35.5cm, or 14 inches, which both Tamara and Livi met.

“It’s something good to do, and

it’s all for the kids,” Tamara says.

Nicki Day and Claire Browne take on Lake Macquarie on their stand-up paddleboards.

All I want for Christmas is a NEW BIKE! A leisurely stand-up paddleboard session is something many people enjoy as a pastime, but paddling 170 kilometres over three days is another thing altogether.

Piece of cake for a Lake Macquarie SUP Club trio.

Dubbed SUP’n It Forward, the journey saw Claire Browne, Nicki Day and Neale Martin circumnavigate Lake Macquarie to raise more than $3,500 for the Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children Hunter, based in Floraville.

When asked what spurred the idea, Nicki said, “We had the idea to paddle around the whole of Lake Macquarie, but then thought about doing it as a fundraiser. With a brother, a sister-in-law and a brother-in-law all with hearing loss, and driving past the centre nearly every day at Floraville, it was an easy choice.”

The trio started at Teralba Amateur Sailing Club, making their way around Toronto, Fishing

Point, Morisset, Mannering Park, Gwandalan, Caves Beach, Marks Point and Warners Bay, while their families followed them in a houseboat.

Wind and choppy waves posed the biggest challenges, with some earlier-than-planned starts required to make up time to return to Teralba on schedule.

“At some points of the trip, the wind and waves were like nothing I’ve ever paddled before,” Nicki said.

Alas, they returned to shore safely, and Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children hunter relationship manager, Darren Parmenter, said the institute was ever so grateful for the money the trio raised.

“We have an urgent need to assist children with getting their school textbooks converted into braille,” Mr Parmenter said.

Donations are still being taken online at give.everydayhero.com/au/ sup-n-it-forward

Getting proactive on food waste Food relief agencies and councils in the Hunter Region can now apply for a share of $2 million in grants to help rescue surplus food before it is sent to landfill.

Cash injections of up to $200,000 are available over two years to support projects that raise awareness and improve education on food rescue.

Previous state government funding for vans, fridges and freezers has already helped to divert 6,000 tonnes of surplus food from landfill each year, putting it to good use before it goes to waste.

Applications are open until 22 November.

NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO?

Patience pays off for Pender Talented swimmer Matthew Pender believes patience has been crucial to his success.

“You could say I’ve been taking a less forceful approach of late; you can’t rush for improvement,” he says.

“Putting in the hard work won’t always pay off immediately, but it will in due time.”

Pender added to his growing reputation at the New Zealand Short Course Swimming Championships last month, returning home with a monster haul of six finals, three podium placings, and four personal best times.

The 20-year-old from Aberglasslyn toured as a representative of the Coast and Valley Swimming Association and proved most potent in the 200m butterfly and 200m backstroke disciplines.

Based at the Kurri Kurri Aquatic and Fitness Centre, Pender is confident that his coach, Sam Frame, and the local facilities at his disposal can help him reach even greater heights.

“Sam’s program definitely

tailors to my needs and it shows throughout my continual progress with him,” Pender says.

“I grew up on local facilities – you can become competitive nationally when bred in this region if you possess the right attitude.”

A rigorous training regime, comprised of at least 40 kilometres of swimming each week, multiple gym sessions and strict nutritional discipline, is par for the course for Pender.

And, he’s as hungry as ever to keep improving.

“I hope I’m not swimming at my best,” Pender says.

“I want to know that I can push myself further and I believe that, if I continue to pursue swimming, big things are a possibility.”

A gritty, come-from-behind win on Saturday has propelled the Newcastle Jets to the top of the A-League ladder.

Newcastle went behind in the 24th minute when Adelaide midfielder Nikola Mileusnic slotted a cool finish past Jets goalkeeper Jack Duncan.

But the Jets began to dominate possession and, just before the break, managed to draw level as Ben Kantarovski steered home Dimi Petratos’ inviting cross.

Newcastle then hit the front in the 47th minute, with winger Andrew Nabbout pouncing on a

back pass to grab his second goal in as many games.

The Jets should have extended their lead shortly afterwards, but striker Roy O’Donovan missed an open goal.

It didn’t come back to haunt the visitors as Newcastle’s defence held firm against a desperate late flurry from the home side.

The win saw the Jets record their third consecutive away victory for the first time in the club’s history.

Newcastle will now face third-placed Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium on 18 November. Kick-off is at 7.50pm.

Koalas bound for USA They’re a Hunter institution; identifiable by their iconic sunburnt orange and coal black uniforms from a mile away.

The region’s own youth marching band, The Marching Koalas, is celebrating its 35th birthday in spectacular fashion, being one of only two non-American bands invited to participate in the 129th annual Pasadena Tournament of Roses parade in California on New Year’s Day. The eight-kilometre parade rings in the new year in front of a crowd of more than 750,000 people, plus millions more around the globe as the event is televised.

The Koalas were selected as one

of 22 participating bands from more than 100 applicants.

Almost 70 students aged 12 to 22 will join a 110-strong contingent, departing on 27 December for two weeks.

They will be hosted by Arcadia High School, with which the band has built a strong relationship since its inaugural American tour in 1983.

During their tour, the Koalas will perform at a number of other locations, including Bandfest, Disneyland California, Knott’s Berry Farm Theme Park – the oldest in America, Hollywood, and the local farmers’ markets.

It will be the band’s 16th international tour since it formed in

Music director John Gill, who teaches some of the band members at Belmont High School, says the band has had a profound impact on many young musicians’ lives.

“Certainly, they learn to refine their musical skills and get a sense of

marching and formation work, but I think one of the things about the band is that we’re one big family,” John said.

Community arts centre rises from the ashes This time last year, Newcastle Community Arts Centre didn’t know if it would have a home, let alone be in a position to host the 2017 Newcastle Emerging Artist Prize.

But, 12 months later, NCAC has a new home in O Block (Chinchen Street, Tighes Hill), and the emerging artist prize lives on.

Through the incredible hard work and dedication of all involved, NCAC is delighted to announce the emerging artist prize exhibition will take place from 18 November to 3 December, with the opening night to be held this Saturday 18 November at 6pm.

By the prize’s definition,

emerging artists are those, of any age, who have mastered the basic techniques of their artform through tertiary education or post-school practice, and are in the early years of kick-starting a professional career.

This year, there is a $6,000 prize pool thanks to support from local businesses, with four section-winner titles plus overall winner up for grabs.

The four categories are: painting, 3D/sculpture, works on paper and photo media.

The 2017 Newcastle Emerging Artist Prize judges are Lake Macquarie City Art Gallery director Debbie Abraham; artist, educator and former section winner Todd Fuller; and Maitland Regional Gallery cultural director Brigette Uren.

The talented young cast of Roman & Jules.

Twist on time-old classic From Theatre on Brunker comes Roman & Jules, a contemporary twist on the Shakespearean classic.

Now showing at St Stephen’s Anglican Church hall, Roman & Jules is a musical revue, loosely based on Romeo and Juliet, that explores love, belonging, and traditions.

It’s more than just a story about star-crossed lovers; it’s about societal pressures, family pressures, and conflicts between two groups of young people – the Newys and the Gongs (Newcastle and Wollongong).

Fifteen talented young artists sing and dance and guide the audience through the gamut of emotions, as well as some of the

backstreets of Newcastle and Wollongong.

Written and directed by Theatre on Brunker production manager Meri Bird, Roman & Jules features songs from some of our favourite musicals, such as Mama Mia, Singing In The Rain, Godspell and Rent.

Theatre on Brunker is volunteerrun and is one of only a few dinnertheatre venues in Newcastle. It helps keep the church’s doors open.

Roman & Jules’ final show dates are 18, 24 and 25 November.

Tickets for dinner and a show are $45, or $22 for show-only; $18 if you are a student or a pensioner.

Story’s morals help children grow A few positive words every day can go a long way toward helping children grow in confidence and resilience.

The Hug, written and designed by two Newcastle mums, harnesses the power of words to help children further develop their sense of self-worth.

The first book to come from Wonderful Me, The Hug reinforces positive concepts to give children the tools they need to thrive in everyday life.

Find out more at wonderfulme.com.au To celebrate the book’s release, Wonderful Me is giving away five The Hug sets (includes book and a plush toy), valued at $39.90 each.

PICK OF THE WEEK Magnolia

Thor: The Dark World

Friday, SBS, 8.30pm, MA15+ (1999) Tom Cruise (pictured) gives one of his best performances as a misogynist motivational speaker in director Paul Thomas Anderson’s emotionally epic drama. Anderson masterfully weaves together the lives of apparently unconnected people – from William H. Macy’s heartbreaking turn as a former child star to a conflicted trophy wife (Julianne Moore) caring for her dying TV mogul husband (Jason Robards). There is no question it’s among Anderson’s finest works.

Friday

Sunday, 7MATE, 8.40pm, PG (2013) Aussie Chris Hemsworth (pictured) returns as the Norse god Thor in this dark Marvel sequel that is peppered with welcome moments of humour.

Back in the fantastical world of Asgard – and in a plot that doesn’t really make sense, but when did that matter? – Loki (a fantastic Tom Hiddleston) is in prison, while on Earth scientist Jane (Natalie Portman) is trying to get on with life without Thor, but a normal existence is out of the question when she gets cursed with a powerful object.

Django Unchained

Thursday, 7MATE, 9pm, MA15+ (2012) After taking on the Nazis in Inglourious Basterds, Tarantino set his sights on slavery in the South and came up with an exhilarating spaghetti western-style movie.

Dr King Schultz (Christoph Waltz), a German dentist turned bounty hunter, frees Django (Jamie Foxx, pictured), a slave who’s hellbent on rescuing his wife from the Mississippi plantation owned by the sadistic Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).

On the career front, she will be taking the lead and will find herself in charge of others.

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

The New Moon on the 18th brings with it an opportunity to increase your funds. It is the ideal time to put cash matters in order. If there is a difference of opinion with your partner, a fresh perspective is useful to help arrive at any kind of agreement.

The New Moon on the 18th favours romance, friendships, socialising, entertainment and networking as you mix and mingle. Attached Capricorns will try to be extra romantic. This month is all about getting the ratio right between your busy public life and your private inner world.

The New Moon on the 18th falls directly in your 9th house and indicates that when it comes to romance, you will find it whilst travelling or amongst foreigners and people from very different backgrounds than yours. Keep romance fun and light and enjoy it rather than becoming too intense.

Venus in your 12th house indicates an emotional disappointment and because of this it would be a good idea to put duty before enjoyment.

The New Moon on the 18th indicates it’s a good idea to trust your instincts as they will lead you in the right direction.

FAMILY My wife Debbie and I have been married for 32 years. We have two wonderful children, Averil and Ash, with whom I love to spend time at the end of a busy work day.

My favourite things HUNTER COMMUNITY It is the skills and experience of our pilots, crew, paramedics and doctors that make our service exceptional. But they are supported by an outstanding team of engineers who keep things working in the air, while our fantastic finance and marketing people keep things progressing on the ground.

RUGBY LEAGUE I grew up playing rugby league locally and was fortunate enough to turn my passion into a career. I played professionally in Sydney for St George and, on returning home, played and coached for South Newcastle and Singleton. I ventured overseas to play in Paris in 1992, where injury ended my professional career. In hindsight, I could think of worse places to be sidelined.

Richard Jones

WESTPAC RESCUE HELICOPTER SERVICE CEO

MUSIC Although I couldn’t play a tune if you paid me, I love music and especially going to live gigs. Watching the very talented Tim Freedman at Lizotte’s is one of my favourite memories. He, like Paul Kelly, is a great storyteller and that’s something I really appreciate in a musician.

Richard Jones is CEO of the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service. In this role, Richard has overseen many significant changes, including several major upgrades to helicopter technology; the establishment of and upgrades to bases at Tamworth, Lake Macquarie Airport and Lismore to complement that at Newcastle; and the successful contract with NSW Ambulance to deliver aeromedical services to the communities of northern NSW. Born and bred in the Hunter, Richard completed his Higher School Certificate at St Pius College, Adamstown. Postschool, he enjoyed a career in rugby league, playing at a BAR BEACH senior level for the St George Dragons before making his way I have grown up with the sand between my toes. It’s been a while since I got on a board (thanks to those footy injuries), but I still love nothing more than spending summer days down by the home to hold senior playing and coaching positions for a water with my family. My youngest, Ash, also likes to have a skate at the bowl across the road, so I often go and watch from the sides. number of Hunter clubs.
