Nana Glen playground brings community together By Andrea FERRARI THE opening of a new playground in Nana Glen on Tuesday means so much more to the community than a place for the kids to play. A $205,000 Federal Government investment and $105,000 in Coffs Harbour City Council funding has resulted in a playground where parents can meet, families can socialise and all ages can be outside in the fresh air; safely and locally. The playground features a variety of newdesign play equipment for the kids to enjoy.

Ag Visa Concerns By Andrew VIVIAN

THE Minister for Agriculture and Northern Australia, David Littleproud, has claimed that

farmers have warned that removing the Agricultural Visa will increase food prices.

He quoted local fruit and vegetable farmer Paul Shoker as being disappointed that the

Australian Labor Party has said it will not proceed with the Agricultural Visa, believing this

Nana Glen playground brings community together FROM Page 1 Cassie McCabe, a Nana Glen mum of two boys aged six and eight, and Winnie, aged four, told News Of The Area, “We’ve needed this for so long. “All through Covid we couldn’t go into school and talk with other parents…we’ve all been feeling disconnected from other mums, having those day-to-day chats.” Michelle Kassulke, the Bucca-based mum of Sunnie, seven, and Yeti, four, agreed. “It’s great, I can drop Sunnie at school and come down to the playground with Yeti to play, it’s a really nice addition to the community.” The Nana Glen playground project is a success story of The Orara Valley Progress Association, led by President Stephanie Luck, who were instrumental in gaining the grant from the Federal Government, in partnership with Coffs Harbour City Council. The Progress Assocation lobbied and consulted with Council, preparing all the q Federal Member for Page Kevin Hogan said opening the playground is very special and will bring the community together.

paperwork and feedback to make the playground dream come to life. Mayor Paul Amos officiated at the official opening of the playground on Tuesday 10 May. “What I’m most excited about is the variety of new equipment here that will provide more diverse play opportunities for kids, as well as the new seating and shading that will make it a more comfortable meeting place for the community of Nana Glen,” said Mr Amos. Construction of the playground began in November 2021 on the Len Towells Oval where Nana Glen Cricket Club plays regularly. Built by Moduplay, it features a combination unit with slides, basket, infant swing, spinner, natural play obstacle course and shade sail. There is a small car park, picnic setting and seating, footpaths and shade trees. Mums Cassie and Michelle commented on the colour scheme of autumnal forest shades. “I am so glad it’s not bright primary shades,” said Cassie. Federal Member for Page Kevin Hogan also attended the opening and chatted with parents before making a brief speech. “Out of the many things we do, it’s these

things that are the most special," Mr Hogan said, spreading his arm out to encompass the playground, "seeing community and families getting together – a community like this is more cohesive. “Nana Glen is a growing area, with the number of children at the school increasing, so the playground is very welcome.” Alison Johnson, owner of the Idle In Café in Nana Glen, thanked Council and Kevin Hogan for supporting the development of the playground. “A place where families can enjoy the green space, safely,” she told News Of The Area. “On behalf of the mums and dads who visit my café, we are very appreciative of what things like this bring to our village.” And the last word goes to long-time Nana Glen resident, Shirley Towells, whose late husband Len worked so hard to create the cricket ground in 2016 – hence being called the Len Towells Oval. “It’s great to get the children down here, playing safely in the fresh air, and their parents can all get together, too – that’s Nana Glen community,” Shirley told NOTA.

will cause greater workforce shortages in the industry. Mr Littleproud said, “Worker shortages are a significant contributor to grocery food prices rising four percent in the first three months of this year.” Mr Shoker told News Of The Area, “Until recently we thought there was bipartisan

agreement on the Agricultural Visa but Labor seems to have moved away from this, undoing five years of good work.” He said there have been a lot of band aid solutions during the past two decades and the Agricultural Visa opened up work opportunities to other countries Mr Shoker said the Agricultural Visa was an

acknowledgement of the difficulties of getting a stable agricultural workforce. He said currently, workers use a variety of visas to work on farms, but the dedicated Agricultural Visa would allow people from a wider range of countries to enter Australia for a wider range of work options. The Labor candidate for Cowper, Keith McMullen,

Teachers Rally Again By Andrew VIVIAN

MORE than 1500 Coffs Coast teachers rallied at the Coffs Harbour Showgrounds on Wednesday 4 May in protest at what they say is an unwillingness by the NSW Government to negotiate with the NSW Teachers’ Federation. Ian Watson, the Regional Coordinator for the Federation told News Of The Area, “There are no negotiations - the Government has sat down to one meeting in eighteen months.” He said the last teachers rally was an opportunity for there to be negotiations. “However, we’ve heard nothing,” he said. The Premier of NSW, Dominic Perrottet, and the

Friday, 13 May 2022

Minister for Education, Sarah Mitchell, said teacher salaries will be discussed when framing the next budget, but this is not acceptable to the rallying teachers. News Of The Area spoke with a secondary teacher who wished to remain anonymous. He said, “I’ve been 30 years in the business. “With the amount of extra work that young people have it’s no wonder that they are leaving the profession. “Every day there are two or three classes being covered by one teacher at my school. “When I first moved to the area, it took people ten years to get a job, and now they can’t fill positions!,” he said. The main Showground pavilion was a sea of red as teachers crammed in to hear

increasing its benefits to Pacific nations and Australian employers from July 2023. Mr McMullen said Labor will relocate the proposed Agriculture Visa to sit as a third visa stream under the PALM to “create a robust and sustainable four-year visa, with portability, strong oversight mechanisms, protections and rights for workers”. He said the Agriculture Visa is a great opportunity to

provide jobs and economic support for the Pacific Island nations and Timor Leste with 55,000 pre-screened workers ready to go without the need to enter into bilateral agreements. Mr Shoker said while there might be an increase of workers from the Pacific, the Agricultural Visa opened up opportunities to workers from a much wider range of countries.

a number of speakers. Many sounded angry and spoke about staff shortages (leading to teachers taking classes for which they are not trained and classes being inadequately supervised), extra and unnecessary work for accountability, and the Government's refusal to listen. One speaker said, “The Government has taken advantage of our passion for the profession for too long.” The teachers listened to the Federation President, Angelo Gavrielatos, streamed on a large screen from Sydney, before assembling for a march around the town centre. The marchers could be heard chanting “What do we want?, More than thanks, When do we want it?, Now!”.

Caz Heise Raises Local Issues By Andrew VIVIAN

CAZ Heise, the Independent candidate for Cowper, is urging the community to forensically study the latest State Government’s Master Plan for the redevelopment of Coffs Harbour’s iconic Jetty Foreshores. Ms Heise said she was speaking out after hearing concerns from a growing number of residents. She said, “I know the redevelopment is a State Government issue, but the Federal Government has made significant investment in the Jetty precinct, and so it is imperative that

redevelopment at the Foreshores is endorsed and supported by the local community. “Over the years people have repeatedly said they don’t want to see large tracts of public land converted into expensive private assets or concrete recreation areas and carparks, and yet that’s what this Master Plan is focused on. “People have also repeatedly rejected the notion of residential accommodation east of the railway line but the Master Plan incorporates up to 300 units in blocks up to six

stories high fronting Jordan Esplanade.” Ms Heise said she had told Coffs Harbour Mayor Paul Amos that many people were also worried that the State Government is rushing the process so it can cash in on developer interest. “In my many discussions about the Master Plan I’ve also heard Indigenous elders express concerns about how culturally significant sites will be protected into the future.” Ms Heise is also advocating for a long term, sustainable and disasterproof alternative to

Waterfall Way. She said, “It was great to see our State and Federal members and local Mayors coming together in March to discuss solutions to the many problems faced with maintaining the connection between the coast and the tablelands during times of flooding. “Waterfall Way is an essential link for the community and business and every time it is closed the cost to the local and national economies runs into millions upon millions of dollars.” Ms Heise said a thorough scientific case study is

minor burns. “They will be open during extended business hours – at least 8:00am to 10:00pm – seven days a week. “No appointment will be needed. “All patients will need is their Medicare card.” Mr Deegan said a Labor Government would prioritise the construction of new social housing residences in Northern NSW. He said, “Our region already had a huge shortage of affordable housing before the floods, but now the housing situation is a crisis. The Shadow Minister for Housing and Homelessness, Jason Clare, has announced a $10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund to build 30,000 new social and affordable housing properties in its first five years. Mr Deegan said, “Northern NSW will be the first region to benefit from this program.”

The Greens candidate for Page, Kashmir Miller, said, “It is no secret that the Greens policies are great for the environment and wildlife, but they have also been developed in the interests of social justice and putting regular people first. “As a young person growing up in Page, it saddens me to see my friends move to the city for better employment opportunities.” Ms Miller said the Greens plan to create a TAFE-toJobs Guarantee and skilled jobs program that will train workers for quality, sustainable and local jobs and provide incentives for employers will make a huge difference in the lives of struggling locals. It is also not a secret that, based on an emerging circular economy, the Greens plan to phase out coal and gas in favour of renewable and green technology. Ms Miller says this creates jobs and economic growth for everyday Australians. She said the

Page Candidates Put Forward Election Policies By Andrew VIVIAN CANDIDATES for the seat of Page have been outlining their policy statements during the campaign. The sitting member, Nationals candidate Kevin Hogan, officially launched his campaign last week alongside the Minister for Agriculture David Littleproud, in Grafton. Mr Hogan said, "It is a great honour to be our community’s representative in Canberra. “I have and always will have, our community’s interests front and centre. “This is the most important election in recent history – it is about jobs, flood recovery and cost of living.” He said local jobs must continue to grow and the cost of living is also a priority. Mr Hogan said lowering taxes and cutting fuel excise will help. Rebuilding lives after the floods and preventing

it from happening again requires money, and Mr Hogan said that more than $200 million for flood mitigation works for the whole catchment has been announced The Labor candidate for Page, Patrick Deegan, said a Labor Government will establish a Medicare Urgent Care Clinic in Lismore to improve access to medical assistance and take pressure off the Emergency Department at Lismore Base Hospital. He said the clinic would bulk bill, ensuring that patients do not have out-ofpocket costs. The Medicare Urgent Care Clinics will be based in existing GP clinics and community health centres and provide bulk billed services delivered by doctors and nurses. Mr Deegan said, “This includes treating sprains and broken bones, stitches and glue for cuts, wound care, insect bites, minor ear and eye problems, and

needed to minimise the risks posed by flooding and landslides, and to engineer long term solutions to ensure freight and people can safely move between the Dorrigo Plateau and the coast. “Climate modelling suggests we are in for more frequent and severe storm and flood events in the near future, so it is imperative that weather-proofing Waterfall Way and Eastern Dorrigo Way is a national priority and that it is done properly.” She said if more than $870 million can be promised for a dam at

Manufacturing Australia fund will help local manufacturers recover from the pandemic and move away from fossil fuels into thriving new sectors, creating jobs in Page so that workers can stay with their families and friends while making a substantial living. “Since we do not take donations from corporations, the Greens only answer to the communities we represent,” Ms Miller said. “I am a born and bred Page local, therefore I know first-hand what our region needs from the Federal Government. “We want secure and sustainable work, and a plan from the Government for our flood and pandemic recovery.” Hanabeth Luke, independent candidate for Page, said she would push to put local industries, farms and businesses on an equal footing with faster internet, safer roads and appropriate development. Ms Luke has an extensive policy agenda to stimulate the regional economy, create a fairer future for all Australians by investing in housing and health, taking effective

action on climate change and restoring integrity to Federal politics. Local issues Ms Luke considers to be essential include safer roads, improved mobile phone and internet services, encouraging renewable and innovative local businesses and industry, affordable housing, crisis accommodation (especially for those fleeing domestic violence), skills education for young people and improving local health care. Bigger picture issues include implementation of the recommendations of the Royal Commission into Aged Care, privatisation of public assets, equality in education, improved outcomes for Indigenous Australians, climateresistant infrastructure, legislation for Net Zero and an effective Federal Integrity Commission. With many people still recovering from the floods, Ms Luke said, “I’m broken hearted and tired of hearing my community telling me they are still waiting on flood relief funding. “I demand the National Emergency Response Fund be spent on our recovery needs now!”

Ms Heise said, “I will also advocate for upgrading Armidale Road to ensure freight and people can safely travel between the New England and the Macleay when Waterfall Way is out of action. “Upgrading both these roads will open up new economic and tourism related opportunities as well as ensure safer travel for local residents, so it’s a win-win solution that should not be put into the too hard basket.”

‘FOREST Neighbours’ at Tuckers Nob State Forest staged a peaceful protest against the logging operations which are now occurring in Compartment 9. Wendy Robson, one of the ‘Neighbours’, said, “This beautiful area of forest contains native rainforest, remnant native forest and plantation forest. “It contains endangered fauna and flora species, including koalas.” The forest being logged adjoins Bindarri National Park, and Ms Robson says it is a crucial part of the ecological Koala Bridge corridor which aims to link Bongil Bongil and Bindarri National Parks. The protest focused on the lack of genuine consultation with the community by Forestry Corporation. Ms Robson said community consultation with Forest Neighbours is an Australian standard requirement, and appropriate, given State Forests are owned by the community. She said the Forest Neighbours were not supplied with adequate information by Forestry Corporation about the logging operations, including ecological impacts and detailed maps of the areas being logged. When the Forest Neighbours met with Forestry Corporation in early April (after initial advice of logging being received last year), Ms Robson said they were informed that some parts of the plan had already been "signed off". Ms Robson said materials provided by Forestry Corporation in this meeting were “scanty” and in “draft format” and the Forest

Neighbours understood that the various questions and issues raised at this meeting would then be incorporated into the final plans, with the opportunity for further clarification and discussion. She said this did not occur. A joint forestry visit was arranged between Forestry Corporation and the Forest Neighbours, who requested the involvement of experienced and qualified ecological and forestry expert Dr Tim Cadman to join them in this visit. Ms Robson said Forestry Corporation initially agreed to this approach, but then would not allow Dr Cadman to attend, so the ‘Neighbours’ withdrew from the visit. She said, “We’ve been in the forest mapping it so we know which areas should be protected from logging.” Ms Robson said protestors are asking for 20m ‘hard buffer’ zones along the creeks to protect endangered frogs and create a wildlife corridor, but Forestry Corporation are classifying the creeks as ‘drainage lines’ which allows machinery to come within 5m of the creek. She said logging operations commenced the day after the scheduled meeting, The protesters aimed to alert other community members of the “soul destroying” logging now occurring in Tuckers Nob, and to ensure that the community is aware of the approach of Forestry Corporation to focus on commercial objectives at the expense of ecological and social community requirements, according to Ms Robson. She said that a similar "consulting process" has or is about to commence in

Orara East (Karangi) and other areas of Tuckers Nob State Forest (between Gleniffer and Bellingen). A Forestry Corporation spokesperson said it always engages with neighbours before and during harvesting of timber plantations. Forestry Corporation also publishes information about each individual operation on its web page and community members can subscribe to any plans they are interested in to receive updates from the Forestry Plan Portal. Timber plantations in the Coffs Harbour area provide a range of important sustainable and renewable wood products to local industry and are replanted with local native tree species grown at its Grafton nursery.

Mr Nott is also concerned about the threat of logging in Pine Creek Forest, where he was joined by NSW Greens MPs Cate Faehrmann and Sue Higginson. “Now we know that native forestry logging operations are losing money and thus are taking money from the community to remove a valuable forest, I can not support this,” Mr Nott said. “Other forest products,

GREENS lead Senate candidate for NSW David Shoebridge and Greens candidate for Cowper Timothy Nott met with Gumbaynggirr Elders at Muurrbay Language Centre this week to talk about the priorities of First Nations people in this upcoming Federal Election. Mr Shoebridge and Mr Nott were welcomed to Country by Uncle Micklo Jarrett who said, “Housing, education, employment and language and culture are the most important things that I feel will benefit my people, the Gumbaynggir people.”

Uncle Micklo Jarrett also highlighted the importance of protecting the environment. “The protection of our forests, the protection of our waterways, the protection of our sacred places, that is what Gumbaynggirr people, and everyone who lives on Gumbaynggirr land should be about. “It should be about the protection of all the animals, all the forests, all the waters and all the sacred places. “That’s who we are,” he said. Mr Nott said, “As a community representative, I will promote First Nations peoples' voices in deciding

management outcomes for Aboriginal heritage as well as housing, education, employment and culture.” Mr Shoebridge said, “By empowering First Nations communities, handing decision-making and funding to local communities, we can ensure that First Nations people thrive and live good lives in this country.” The Greens will use the balance of power in Federal parliament to ensure the next Government works with First Nations communities to deliver outcomes on First Nations housing, education, health, climate and environmental

Koala National Park is the right thing to do socially, economically and environmentally. Cate Faehrmann supported him, saying, “Pine Creek is a vital corridor for koalas from the coast up to the tablelands and must be protected so that this population can thrive and grow. “Any politician who is not committed to protecting and expanding their habitat is essentially signing the koala’s death warrant.”

Woolgoolga Residents Unhappy With Council Approach To Two Projects By Andrew VIVIAN

AT Council’s April 28 meeting, the Whale Trail and Trial Bike Lane projects in Woolgoolga were considered by Councillors. Four alternate options for pathway width and alignment around the corner of Pollack Esplanade and Carrington Street were considered for the Woolgoolga Whale Trail. Council resolved to proceed with Option C – construction of a 2.5m wide elevated path that follows the road alignment around the reconstructed road corner. Coffs Harbour City Council Mayor Paul Amos

said there has been a long history of conversations on this project but is glad to see that broad agreement has been reached to proceed with Option C. He said, “Council must now seek the necessary environmental approvals as a matter of priority and urgency as grant monies need to be expended in certain timeframes.” The next step will be seeking environmental approvals because the potential removal of nine trees is involved in this Option. Council says appropriate mechanisms will be put in place to ensure pedestrian safety in areas near road

traffic. The Mayor said to optimise the safety of cyclists and avoid impacts to Clarence Street for the trial bike lane, Council resolved to create an appropriate transition from the existing footway in Clarence Street to the on-road cycleway in Beach Street. The on-road protected cycleway will run along Beach Street from River Street to Boundary Street where it will ramp onto the roadside verge and continue as a new, 3.0m wide shared path to Wharf Street. The new shared path avoids changes to the angle parking between

Boundary Street and Wharf Street while providing a comfortable and safe route for both pedestrians and cyclists. Cr Amos said, “Again we need to be full steam ahead here as time is running out to make use of this grant money. “What hasn’t been understood by many is that the on-road bike lane trial is essentially community consultation in action, you try before you buy. “Sure it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but we need to see what’s possible and this trial will allow that to happen.” It isn’t everyone’s cup of tea because the Northern

Beaches Residents Association (NBRA) is unhappy with both results. NBRA spokesperson Ray Willing told News Of The Area that his group and the Woolgoolga Chamber of Commerce met with two Council staff about the Whale Trail and it was a disappointing meeting. “We didn’t understand Option C and, after meeting with two Council officers, we are asking Council for further clarification,” he said. Mr Willing said the community consultation that was supposed to happen in regards to the options has not occurred. NBRA and the Chamber

of Commerce sent a joint letter to Council on 26 April, but it did not appear to influence Council’s decision. Mr Willing said, “We want the Whale Trail to be iconic, and if the $1 million allocated is not enough, we are prepared for it to be built in stages. “We want to be sure that the entire whale trail is built with quality.” With regard to the bike lane, Mr Willing said making use of grant money is not an appropriate way “to see what’s possible” when an accident is a possibility “We believe it is unsafe, will lead to bottle necks, will take away parking and is a waste of NSW taxpayers’ money.” Mr Willing is hopeful that negotiations can continue about both projects.

Emma Macey-Storch Wins Ferguson Film Prize By Andrew VIVIAN

EMMA Macey-Storch was announced as the winner of the inaugural Ferguson Film Prize at the Closing Night of the Screenwave International Film Festival (SWIFF). The director of the documentary ‘Geeta’ will receive a $3000 personal cash prize, a trophy, and an official accreditation. Ms Macey-Storch is an award-winning director and producer, having worked across documentary, animation and fiction, on projects with a social justice focus. Her sophomore feature documentary, 'Geeta', is both a personal tale of a mother fighting for her daughter’s

destiny and a powerful call to action against domestic violence. After surviving a malicious acid attack at the hands of her husband, leaving both Geeta and her daughter, Neetu, badly injured, both women are left to grapple with poverty and social ostracism. But they have also joined a burgeoning social justice movement working to end violence against women, catapulting Geeta onto a global stage, as co-founder of a local activist movement Sheroes, and in her fight for law reform and justice. Nine directors were nominated for the Prize, in honour of the late Kate Ferguson, including Leah Purcell for ‘The Drover’s Wife’

and Allan Clarke for ‘The Bowraville Murders’. ‘Geeta’ was judged as featuring the most captivating, daring, and ambitious storytelling. Bonnie Ferguson thanked the SWIFF organisers and said, “Mum really wanted to support young creatives.” She said the judges, who included acclaimed Australian director Kriv Stenders, Sydney Film Prizewinning documentarian Sascha Ettinger-Epstein, and ABC News Breakfast’s film critic Zak Hepburn, watched the nine films nominated and then discussed them. Ms Macey-Storch accepted the Prize and thanked the audience for supporting her campaign. David Horsley, co-director

Bishop Druitt College celebrates opening of Dance Academy

By David TUNE ON Wednesday 4 May Bishop Druitt College (BDC) officially opened their new Dance Academy program in the Garra-Garraji Dance Studio (named for the Gumbaynggirr word for ‘movement and dance’) with a student dance workshop run by The Sydney Dance Company. The program is designed to allow students that have reached a high level of dance in their elective courses to achieve an advanced level of skill and dovetails with HSC Dance as well as connecting to careers in performing and choreography. BDC Principal Mr Nick Johnstone said, “The Sydney Dance Company is one of the premier dance companies in Australia if not the world, to be able to have their teaching artists here in Coffs Harbour is a wonderful opportunity for our students. “In only three to five hours our Dance Academy students were able to put on a

Dance Academy parent Vanessa Crossley said of her son Hunter, “The Dance Academy was a big reason why Hunter wanted to come to BDC, he knew the school had a great Dance Academy and he wanted to be a part of it. “His previous school was not a big supporter of the performing arts and he really wanted to pursue dance at school. “Hunter can further his studies and do dance for his HSC at BDC. “He is in an environment where it is okay for boys to dance and he feels comfortable to be able to dance at BDC and feels part of the team. “He loves it,” Vanessa said.

Australian Record for Coffs Harbour LGA Volunteers By Andrea FERRARI

WITH 968 working volunteers from the Coffs Harbour LGA officially registered, The Australian Book Of Records has confirmed that our region is tops, with the most volunteers registered and working in an LGA. Di Woods, Manager of Coffs Coast Volunteering and Coffs Harbour Neighbourhood Centre has the certificate to prove it. “Receiving The Australian Book of Record’s congratulations and confirmation of achieving the

record was magical,” Di told News Of The Area. “What a wonderful way to recognise and celebrate our volunteers - each and every one of them should be proud. “We know there are even more volunteers than that, and not all organisations forwarded their documentation, but what an achievement. “The Australian Book of Records informed me of the process and documentation we would need to submit to be considered. “We contacted services that are already members of

Coffs Coast Volunteers and were also contacted by other services that recruit their own volunteers.” Over fourteen services contributed, providing letters and documentation of the volunteers that supported them in the past twelve months. The Australia Book of Records fast tracked their collation, recognising the importance of being able to make the announcement for Volunteer Week (May 16-22). Di is aware every day of the selfless contribution of volunteers.

Wizard of Oz comes to Jetty Memorial Theatre By David TUNE

COFFS Harbour Musical Comedy Company (CHMCC) will open their long-awaited production of ‘The Wizard of Oz, Young Performers Edition’ at the Jetty Memorial Theatre tonight, Friday 13 May. Originally planned to be presented in 2020, the production team have worked tirelessly with the young cast to bring the show together. The hour-long production has a total cast of 35 performers ranging in age from eight to seventeen with some roles double cast, and two ensemble teams that will alternate during the twenty performances. Directed by Billie-Jo

Dukes and Rebecca Riches, the production tells the classic tale of Dorothy and her adventures in the land of Oz. Billie-Jo said, “We have a beautiful cast that range from eight to seventeen and they have all worked so hard and have taken any hurdle thrown at them in their stride. “I am so proud of them. “I played the role of Dorothy when I was a child, and this show has had a special place in my heart ever since.” The production team also features an up-and-coming choreographer in Ginger Freudenstein, who has been involved with CHMCC productions since her lead role in ‘Annie’ in 2014. Billie-Jo also said,

“Special mention to Ginger Freudenstein; as a junior member herself, Ginger has done an incredible job on choreography - her talent and vision at a young age is inspiring.” The show is suitable for the whole family and will delight younger children. Performances are on Friday nights, twice on Saturdays and Sundays from today until June 5. Tickets can be bought through the Theatre at https://www.jettytheatre. com/wizard-of-oz-youngperformers-edition/ or by calling 02 6648 4930 Tuesday through to Friday 12 noon to 4pm.

q Coffs Harbour has the highest number of registered volunteers working in an LGA. Deb Wall, Donna Hunt, Jacqui Fogarty and Michael Feisst, with the certificate to prove it. She talks with pride of the more than 60 volunteers that she and coordinator, Anna Joy, directly support. Part of the role Coffs Coast Volunteering undertakes is to support over 30 local services that host and support volunteers, which provide key services to everyone in Coffs Harbour and also help people wanting to volunteer find a role that they will find rewarding and inspiring. “I have always been in awe of the local culture of locals helping locals in Coffs Harbour,” she said. All team members need support and training, paid or unpaid; it is what keeps services on track and providing quality services for

our community. “At present that support is significantly underfunded which is ludicrous given the hundreds of thousands of dollars they contribute in time and expertise into our community. “I was actually looking for statistics to support a funding application to help boost local support and training for volunteers, when a Coffs Harbour Council document highlighted that the level of volunteering can indicate the cohesiveness of the community and how readily individuals are able to contribute to that community. “In the Coffs Harbour LGA, nineteen percent of the population reported doing

some form of voluntary work. “That is incredible and as a community is something to celebrate. “That must be one of the highest in Australia I thought, so that’s when I started to look and contacted The Australian Book of Records.” For people who would like to be involved, check out the Volunteering Expo on May 18 at Cavanbah Hall, where people can chat with over 25 services who are looking for volunteers right now. Register at www. trybooking.com/BYZQO and come along; or call Coffs Coast Volunteers 02 6648 3660 to make an appointment to find out about local volunteer opportunities.

In memory of Joginder Kaur Arkan By Andrea FERRARI

JOGINDER Kaur Arkan, a well-known, valued member of the Woolgoolga community, passed away on 2 May, 2022, aged 87. Her funeral was held on Wednesday 11 May at Karangi Lawn crematorium followed by a service and social gathering at Guru Nanak Temple in Woolgoolga. John Arkan, a former Coffs Harbour City Councillor, real estate agent and shop keeper in Woolgoolga, spoke about his beloved mother. “We carried mum into Karangi Lawn accompanied by the Coffs Pipe Band, then went back to the Guru Nanak Temple in River Street, Woolgoolga, for a service, hymns and food. “Mum came to Woolgoolga in 1957,” John told News Of The Area. “Mum was a wonderful lady living firstly with her husband and six kids in Korora then moving to Woolgoolga.” Widowed with six young children, Joginder’s story is one of a person who, against real hardship, was able to survive, endure and celebrate living and bringing up her family with true Aussie spirit. “She was proud to say her children all contributed to Australia; Nachatter - a

primary school teacher at Naranga Primary School; Rashmere - coordinator of Woolgoolga Neighbourhood Centre for the last 20-odd years; Peter - restaurant owner and grape farmer in South Australia; Sarjeet - a human resources manager in Sydney; and Geoff - who worked in corrective services and has now retired.” And son, John, who served as a Coffs Harbour City Councillor, and Deputy Mayor for one year, the first Sikh councillor elected to the local government of Australia. Here John shares some more of his mum’s history. Joginder Kaur was born in the village of Masopur in Punjab State on 20 October 1934. Hers was a well-respected ‘jatt’ (agricultural landowner) family and deeply affiliated with the Sikh religion, with her father and brothers wearing long beards and the turban. Tragedy struck when her adored elder brother Joginder, who was her namesake, acquired an illness that resulted in his death shortly after his marriage. The grief stricken family moved from the Punjab to join family in Bikaner in Rajasthan circa 1945. This was Joginder Kaur’s

first experience of migration, and the desert of Rajasthan is very different to the fertile green crop laden fields of the Punjab. Joginder spoke about playing in the sand dunes, the water of the canals and picking cotton as a young girl. She also remembered the “upheaval” (understood to mean Partition) in 1947. Migrating to Woolgoolga, Joginder found that she was to live in a rough ‘humpy’ on a banana farm without electricity, hot water or an indoor toilet. With a return to the Punjab and then back to Australia, the family was growing. Joginder and Harjeet Arkan settled on a banana farm in Korora in 1965 with their four children. They built a house on the Old Coast Road and their children attended Korora Public School. Two more sons were born to them. In May 1970 the family moved to Woolgoolga, to take advantage of the cultural life of the growing Punjabi community, which then numbered six families, and the establishment of the Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara temple. Harjeet died in a horrific car accident at Avocado Heights on the Pacific

Highway in September 1970 and Joginder was left alone with six children aged three to thirteen. As a result of her grim struggle to survive financially, she became a trail blazer for women in Woolgoolga's Indian community. "You girls are not going into the bananas and getting married early," she told her three daughters, pushing them to finish school, go to university and have independent careers.

The family did not have television and Joginder enthralled the children in the evenings with stories of life in Rajasthan, her move to the Punjab after marriage and her migration to Australia. She instilled in them a deep respect for education and the Sikh religion. She was actively involved in multicultural education and travelled to schools from Iluka and Yamba to Macksville, giving hands-on lessons in Punjabi culture to primary and

secondary school children. She was invited to open the Moonee Beach Shopping complex in 2005. Joginder Kaur was a proud mother, with fifteen grandchildren in careers such as health professionals, marketing, teaching and hospitality. John closed, “I don’t believe Mum set out to be a person so many came to love. “More so I think Mum had an enormous faith in doing the best with what you have.”

Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is on By Andrea FERRARI

DAPPERLY dressed and on their prized motorcycles, the men and women supporting The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride will motor out on Sunday 22 May, 2022 to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men’s mental health. Big numbers are expected, with almost 50 riders already registered. Organisers say if you want to join the ride yet know no one else taking part, just sign up and you will be instantly made welcome on the day. This is the tenth anniversary of the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, having been founded in Sydney in 2012 by Mark

Hawwa and taking off around the globe. Mark decided a themed ride would be a great way of connecting niche motorcycle enthusiasts and communities while raising funds to support the men in our lives. The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride unites classic and vintage style gentlemen and gentlelady motorcycle riders all over the world. Dressing in a dapper fashion, riders raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer research and men’s mental health. In 2019 there were 116,000 riders worldwide, in 679 cities from 114 countries, raising in excess of $6 million USD. Numbers were reduced in

Campfire cooking demo By Andrea FERRARI

A UNIQUE foodie discovery event is on offer during the Coffs Coast Food and Wine Festival at the privately owned Levenvale Farm in Valery, hosted by owners Sam and Georgina Baker. The Cooking with Fire workshop sees Toni Swain instructing guests on the preparation and cooking of her award-winning beef madras by campfire. Toni will share her methods to workshop attendees at Levenvale Farm; from the roasting of spices to slowly cooking the organic Bellingen beef straight off the land. “I will be demonstrating how to make my beef madras, the ingredients and cooking method, and also bringing along aloo palak, garlic naan and beggar's chicken recipes,” Toni told News Of The Area. While the beef madras stews, guests take a leisurely walk around the stunning Bellingen farm and hear about the regenerative farming techniques and pasture diversity that produces thriving crops and animals. While the meat is getting more and more tender, you’ll prepare naan bread, basmati rice and a seasonal vegetable

By Susan KONTIC THE village of Mylestom might be small, but it always comes up big for a good cause. That was the case on Tuesday when most of the town turned out to support Maureen Heelis and her hard-working team who had organised a Biggest Morning Tea to raise money for the Cancer Council. The hall was filled to capacity and tables were set up in the courtyard, all decorated with bright cloths and flowers. Many of the local women had spent days baking and decorating the delicious spread that was enjoyed before the raffles and lucky

door prize were drawn. With a host of prizes donated by local craftspeople and businesses from Urunga and Raleigh, there were plenty of happy winners. The speaker, Shandra Higgs, expressed her appreciation and thanked them all for their generosity. She went on to remind us that we all know someone whose life has been affected by cancer, and we’ve all been by touched by it either directly or indirectly so it was pleasing to know that the fun and friendship we were experiencing would provide funds to help raise vital funds to bring us closer to a cancer-free future.

Appeal after home invasion – Coffs Harbour POLICE are appealing for public assistance after a home invasion earlier this year. About 10pm on Friday 28 January 2022, emergency services were called to a home on Aquamarine Drive, Tormina, following reports of a home invasion. Police have been told three males – one armed with a knife and one armed with a machete – attempted to force entry to the home, causing damage to the front door. Two vehicles parked in the driveway were also damaged, after the tyres were slashed and one vehicle had its windscreen smashed. The males left the scene in a vehicle, described as an older model 4WD. Two men aged – 54 and 29 – and a 33-year-old woman were home at the time but were uninjured. Officers from Coffs/Clarence Police District attended and established a crime scene, which was examined by forensic officers. As inquiries continue, detectives would like to speak to three males who may be able to assist with their inquiries. One is described as being aged in his late 20’s, about 185cm tall, of athletic build, wearing a black t-shirt, baseball cap and surgical mask. The second man is described as being of Caucasian appearance with olive skin, aged his late 50’s, about 155cm tall, and wearing a blue chequered flannelette shirt. The third man is described as being aged in his 30’s, about 190cm tall, with curly blond hair wearing a brown baseball cap. Anyone with information which may assist investigators is urged to contact Coffs Harbour Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Taking steps to help the homeless By Andrea FERRARI

LIFEWALK is a fundraising effort created by LifeHouse Care to boost the not-forprofit’s depleted funds in order to continue to support homeless people across the Coffs community. “We have been hit really hard the past two years with Covid, then throw in the fires, floods, hailstorm and more floods, and our funding has been smashed with so much need,” Mandy Dawkins, Community Care Leader at LifeHouse Care told News Of The Area.

LifeWalk is happening on Saturday 4 June, starting at Gallows car park, walking 7kms along Boambee Beach, finishing up at Boambee Bay Reserve with a sausage sizzle. “We’re encouraging participants to get droppedoff and picked-up, but we are also offering a bus return service to Gallows.” People can walk individually or as a team for part or all of the route. “I'd love to encourage the businesses, individuals, families, schools/sporting groups in the community to really get behind LifeWalk,”

said Mandy. “We are all aware of the devastation of homelessness in our area. “Our goal is to continue to support and care for the people in our region without turning anyone away.” LifeHouse Care receives funding, but since Coffs has had such a hard couple of years with fires, floods, Covid, hailstorms to more floods, the need to provide is greater than the availability. “We offer support to families and individuals that may be affected by DFV, homelessness, high rent increases, high medical expenses, increasingly high food/fuel expenses, and flood

Over the 23 years spent operating in Coffs as a local community charity, LifeHouse has built up its services to be able to offer personal crisis intervention, food assistance, pharmacy expenses, clothing and furniture, electricity vouchers, advocacy and referral services and swags/ tents. “With the rising level of homelessness though, our goal is to be able to offer more services specific to those without a home,” added Mandy. To get involved, register to walk as an individual, gather a team and walk and fundraise together, or sponsor a team if you can't join yourself. Businesses or individuals can donate to support on a larger scale. For more info see https:// www.lifehousecare.org.au/ lifewalk.

The art of landscape By Andrea FERRARI

INSPIRATION from our region’s natural beauty is the theme of ‘Groundswell: the art of landscape’ exhibition at Urunga Art Space. Groundswell shines the spotlight on the appreciation of nature for its own sake, and explores how we relate to the places we live in. Sixteen local artists and craftspeople have beautifully illustrated their interpretations of our rural landscape, where streams of light dance and shadows brood across open fields, rolling hills and blue-green waterways. The artists in this exhibition are: Evan Cleland, Kelly Finley, Bruce Gilchrist, Carole Helman, Eleanor Holliday, Ute Kardinahl, Zephyr L’Green, Rhonda Mair, Tom Maxwell, Cath O’Gorman, Phillip R Pomroy, Dubravka Sabjak, Sharron Sykes, Lloyd Tubb, Polly Wells and Richard Wrobel. Chris Wilson and Hugh Wade were the curators of the Groundswell exhibition and have found their own method for hanging an

exhibition of this sort. They first place the large, strong pieces, then build around these, taking account of colour, groupings and rhythm, or "pace". “The placing of Phillip Pomroy's ‘The False Fisherman’ in the window, augmented with Tom Maxwell's beautiful sculpture was a quick decision, as the window is lit at night,” Chris told News Of The Area. "Pace", to them, means not having repetition, rather changes in groupings, colours and sizes so the viewer is surprised and stimulated, not bored. “Above all, the exhibition must work as a whole, almost as an artwork in its entirety, with colours flowing and carefully balanced,” said Chris. The 3D work is usually done last. “We had fun placing the ceramics, woodwork and large basket sculptures to complete the curate. “We were very fortunate with the variety and standard of the works, and were very pleased with the result.”

Urunga artist Phillip Pomroy's love of landscape painting began in his twenties, when he was introduced to the art of Arthur Streeton, Frederick McCubbin and Tom Roberts, who painted en plein air in or around Heidelberg, in Melbourne’s rural outskirts, and became part of a movement that came to be known as the Heidelberg

AFTER two years of watching the South Solitary Island lighthouse cast its beam from across the sea, locals and history buffs will once again be able to see it first-hand as the island reopens to guided walking tours. As of last weekend, Precision Helicopters has brought back the popular tour, which gives lighthouse aficionados access to the winding interior of the structure itself, and a peek within the now-abandoned Keepers Quarters. President of the Friends of South Solitary Island Lighthouse (FOSSIL) group, Chris Bramley, believes the buildings that are situated on the island have a special historical significance. "Built just 92 years after the first fleet arrived, the construction of South Solitary Island Lighthouse and the dwellings remain an extraordinary

Dorrigo’s winning horse events A HIGHLY successful Dorrigo Show Horse Challenge and Indoor Camp Draft drew competitors from all parts of the Northern Rivers and Lower New England. Organisers said they were overwhelmed with the success of the two-day event and the standard of competition and horsemanship. Dorrigo Plateau riders were joined by men and women from Kempsey, Macksville, Grafton, Tamworth and the Coffs Coast. Saturday events included led and ridden classes for all breeds of horses, followed by the Horse Challenge. “The Horse Challenge involves skill in riding to a set pattern, steering your horse through an obstacle course (walking over a bridge, going through a gate, over a jump, cracking a whip just to name a few challenges) and a twohanded cutting event,” a spokesperson for the event told News Of The Area.

HYPOTHETICAL Taking a Legal Look

DEAR Jasminda,

By Manny WOOD

I recently inherited my grandmother's fur coat. It is a beautiful item, but I can't imagine wearing it for ethical reasons. I also don't want to sell it because of the sentimental value. It seems a waste to just leave it hanging in the cupboard. What should I do? Matilda W.

Family provision claim made against brother’s estate BARRY has never been married and has no children. He has two sisters and a brother named William. William retired from his work as a manual labourer at the age of 55 due to health reasons. He assists Barry in maintaining his home and takes Barry shopping and drives him to his medical appointments. William and Barry, as brothers, had a close relationship during most of their lifetimes, until they had a heated argument, regarding William’s driving ability. In response, Barry makes a new will, appointing his two sisters as executors and giving his whole estate to them equally. When Barry passes away, William makes a claim on his brother’s estate. The Court hears that William received a disability pension for many years and now receives the aged pension. There is evidence that William’s health has continued to decline and that he requires domestic assistance and ongoing medical treatment. He resides in rental accommodation and has no substantial assets. Accordingly, the Court accepts that William has significant financial needs. Despite the evidence establishing William’s financial needs, the Court must also decide whether William falls within the definition of an “eligible person”, who has standing to make a claim. For a sibling to be eligible, they must establish that they were a member of the same household and, in this case, that William was at least partly dependent upon Barry at some stage in his life. The Court is satisfied that they were once members of the same household, having grown-up together. The Court accepts that Barry may have been partly dependent upon William due to his assistance with the maintenance of his home and transport. However, the Court finds that there is no evidence that William was ever dependent upon Barry. Ultimately, the Court orders that despite being brothers, William was unable to prove that he satisfies the definition of being an “eligible person” and his claim against Barry’s estate is dismissed. If YOU would like a particular issue addressed, please email me at manny@tblaw.net.au or call me on (02) 66 487 487.

Dear Matilda,

Independents can strengthen our democracy DEAR News Of The Area, THERE has been a scare campaign about independent candidates in the upcoming election. Independents in parliament can lead to better government. Strong democracies allow diverse views of their community to be expressed in government decision making. Independents

are MP’s elected to represent views of their electorate as intended in our Constitution. Independents are more likely to represent the views of their community than party members who are constrained by party rules and powerful donor groups. A minority government with strong independent members relies on negotiated, consensus based policy development. Policy based on broad consensus is simply better policy and better government. Regards, Tim OUTRAM, Coffs Harbour.

Shutting Down Free Speech and Alternate Views DEAR News Of The Area,

I WOULD like to comment about things to do with the coming election. I have been getting together with a small group and making banners to save koalas. We put banners up last Saturday and they were gone shortly after dark. One banner took three people many hours to paint, then hand stitch the loop for the bamboo rod top and bottom. They have also taken many A4 posters off community notice boards and three ‘Climate Action

Now’ posters were removed. Talking with a ranger he advised they had a call from the Greens as twenty roadside posters had been removed. The loss is one thing but for us it is more disappointing that we have people in our community that do not want free speech and want to stop alternate views. These are people who do not want action on climate change, do not want an ethical Government and a fair, decent and democratic Australia. Regards, Colin HUTTON, Thora.

Rate Rise Retort DEAR News Of The Area,

REGARDING a possible increase in our rates: - Surely Council must be cognisant of and reduce an increase by incorporating their enormous funds already received from the myriad of subdivisions in the past two years with more to come from this source, the possible sale of land at the Jetty Foreshore and future commercial leases of land they own at the airport, plus funds allocated by

24 COFFS COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

State and Federal funds for roads and flood mitigation etc. . The recent spate of heavy rains have made a huge mess of the road leading from the local airport back to Hogbin Drive; the potholed dirt "road" is a disgrace and not a good intro to our beautiful area for visitors to encounter.

media@newsofthearea.com.au

Sincerely, M TRACHTENBERG, Coffs Harbour.

YOUR grandmother sounds as though she was a stylish woman and no doubt came from an era where the ethical issues of fur coats were perhaps not as well researched. Either that or she was a sociopath who enjoyed the idea of wrapping herself in the skin of slaughtered animals. Regardless, you are stuck with an item that is impractical and, as you say, leads to an ethical dilemma. In this situation, I can only suggest taking the path that doesn't cause any further harm. I remember a friend having the same issue. She kept her coat in a box in the top of her wardrobe. Unfortunately, a rabble of rats (which may be the most adorable, alliterative collective noun in existence) nested in it, so it ended up as a rat-infested bin item. If you currently wear other animal by-products (leather, for example), it could be argued that this is no different. The coat is already in existence and the 300 chinchillas, 250 squirrels, 60 minks or 40 foxes it took to make it are already dead, so you can't cause them any further harm. Having researched this a little further, there are organisations that accept fur coat donations that are then repurposed to provide warmth and comfort to orphaned animals. This seems to be a way to keep the memory of your grandmother alive for all the right reasons, while perhaps sustaining the life of other animals and offering them a better fate than those that went into the coat. Carpe diem, Jasminda.

OPINION

Life wasn't meant to be easy DEAR News Of The Area,

MALCOLM Fraser once famously said life wasn't meant to be easy. He was wrong, since then for the main, apart from a few hiccups, it has been far too easy. Like a mob of cows, in a good paddock they put on weight. The average Aussie since that statement has also put on weight.

We have become complacent, expecting a lift up on every stumble and getting it. Dining out, new car, holidays and so many things once regarded as a rarity or luxury is now expected as an entitlement. Remember our older generation’s working class? With Dad out there bending his back Mum at

home doing it just as hard, rearing the kids and doing all the house chores on one meagre income. But they saved, never wasted a crumb, and for the majority, owned their house before retiring on the pension. Those who today are on the pension and renting are in a desperate situation. Conservative, selffunded people relying on

Vote By Yourself DEAR News Of The Area,

COWPER is a safe National seat. What does that mean? It means the Nationals don’t have to work hard to keep it.

It means that for every dollar spent here per constituent, a marginal seat might be receiving several thousand dollars per constituent. Look at where the major leaders are

travelling to and what they are promising where? Look at the money that has been spent in electorates like Bass. It’s likely that here we will have funding announced for projects

Developing for Profit DEAR News Of The Area,

THE NSW State Government, in its draft masterplan for the Jetty Foreshore, professes to be “not developing the precinct for profit”. However, if the private

developer intends to sell the railway land it will be driven by nothing but profit. If history is anything to go by, the developer’s first move will be to attempt to increase their commercial return with a

concerted attack on the height, bulk and density provisions of the plan. When the government’s “preferred developer” at the Barangaroo foreshores project tried this in Sydney, the City Council rejected all their proposals only

bank term deposits are also doing it tough. Turning the coin, house owners, due to free money, have seen their houses, even in little old Bellingen, increase by at least $400,000 in two years. Tax free wealth creation. There is little appreciation for that older generation referred to above, for what so many

today take for granted. But I see dark clouds on the horizon. All that cheap money, with so many rushing into unsustainable debt. The average mortgage is near $700,000. The housing market is holding the country to ransom. Touching on the upcoming election, if as predicted, we get a Labor/ Green government, that might be just what we deserve, resulting in a wake up call.

We need incentive not disincentive, with red tape and bureaucracy the biggest hurdle faced by all small operators. How many do we see tossing a good job for the dream of being their own boss, to mostly fail in quick time. Bureaucracy having replaced productivity will result in this country paying a terrible price. Tighten your belt.

that have been promised in previous elections and not delivered e.g. the tidal pool in Port, work on Sportz Central and the Coffs bypass. Seriously, let’s make Cowper marginal and see the benefits flow. I want an MP who will listen to me, rather than

a party, who will work on returning some decency to politics and getting some real action on climate change and someone who will finally put Cowper on the election map, rather than leaving it as a safe, taken-for-granted seat with minimal funding. I think we would be

better to trust the cross bench, rather than the back bench this election, for our own good. Let’s back Caz Heise and make some history.

to be dismissed as the consent authority by the government. The Department of Planning then accepted the developer’s amendments root and branch, including the proposal of a mega casino for James Packer The final development bears little resemblance to the original concept,

private interests and those of shareholders trumping public interest at every turn. What was previously public land has become, in the words of the chief architect of the original prize winning scheme, an “enclave of privilege”. I see no reason why the government will not treat

us in the same cavalier fashion. I for one would prefer to see continued Council management of the foreshores with incremental improvements over time.

delivered to New Horizons. This organisation employs people with disabilities to prepare articles for shredding on a commercial basis but has included our books free of charge. The finished item is recirculated in a guaranteed fashion for use in Australia.

So, all donations have achieved a great community outcome and the primary recipient, the Lismore Library, was grateful for the high-quality books it received. Yours sincerely, Gerry DE GABRIELE, Secretary Rotary Club of Sawtell.

Day on 10 December 1948, it was not without unanimous support from Australia. Today Australia supports the 17 UN Sustainability Development Goals. The Goals represent a practical set of goals for a more equal and sustainable society. These goals support no poverty, zero hunger, good health and well-being, peace and justice. I think all political candidates at all levels

should declare their support for these goals for all humanity, publicly and unreservedly. I don’t think anyone should call for our any banning or exit from the UN. In these dangerous times we should be strengthening the UN to make it work better or we have learned nothing from past wars.

Thank you for book donations! DEAR News Of The Area,

THE View Club of Bonville Boambee and the Rotary Club of Sawtell wish to thank the community of Coffs Harbour for their superb support for our call

for book donations for the Lismore Library. Because of their generosity 30 boxes of new/near new adult and junior fiction and children’s books were delivered to the Lismore Library on Monday

2 May. Some of the books donated were of good quality but either not in the category of fiction or not quite new/near new as requested by the Lismore Library.

These books are destined for contribution to the Rotary Club of Coffs Harbour for their book sale from 13-20 August. Some books received were not of saleable quality. These books have been

Strengthening the UN in these dangerous times DEAR News Of The Area, TO say that I am appalled at the outrageous, ignorant and dangerous statement made last week by the One Nation candidate for Cowper would be an understatement. Ms Aspiotis, if reported correctly, has apparently

called for Australia to exit the United Nations based on the UN’s collective work in addressing the climate crisis. What shame this type of statement brings on to all Australians. I agree with the concerns of many that the UN Security Council

has been unable to be more effective in relations to conflicts, especially currently with regard to Ukraine. The use of Russia’s veto at the UN Security Council is a tragic failure for the victims of Putin’s criminal invasion. Condemnation of the UN for positive action for the benefit of all humanity is an entirely different matter and demonstrates

the worst elements of uninformed xenophobia. It is dangerous and damaging for all of us who want to live in a peaceful sustainable country within a harmonious global humanity. When Eleanor Roosevelt read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to the UN General Assembly prior to its adoption on the first International Human Right

PROPERTYWEEK 48 Twenty-fifth Avenue, Sawtell For Sale: $1,645,000 5 bed, 3 bath, 4 car Land Size: 926 m2 Internal Build size: 390 m2

BY far one of Sawtell’s largest existing homes with an approximate internal size of 390m2, this property presents a fantastic family size home, close walking distance to the picturesque Boambee estuary and beach.

The upper level hosts the main living areas and sleeping zones of the home. The kitchen directly overlooks the rear yard and allows easy connection to the covered outdoor entertainment space via a sliding door. The master bedroom is very spacious, with a built-in-robe, ensuite bathroom and air conditioner. The remaining three bedrooms upstairs are all well-sized with ceiling fans and carpet underfoot. The main bathroom features a separate wash area, toilet, and a separate shower and bathtub. The downstairs floorplan allows potential for a self-contained one-

bedroom flat with an exceptionally spacious living area, air conditioning and approved bar with sink. This would be an ideal space for a livein family member or income producing space for holiday letting. While most of the home is in its original condition, the sheer size that this home offers presents a limitless range of renovation possibilities.

Need for Feed needs a park in Coffs By Andrea FERRARI

NEED for Feed, the Victoriabased specialty Lions Club which donates fodder to farmers in need during times of drought, fires and floods, needs a space to park up for the night on their next trip through the Coffs Coast. On the June long weekend, the Lions Club Need for Feed convoy will be travelling from Victoria with about 40 vehicles carrying fodder for farmers devastated by the floods along the North Coast. Members from the local Lions Club have reached out

to News Of The Area to help them find a stopover spot for their fellow Lions on their long journey north.

Sunshine and Rain By David WIGLEY

LOCAL band Unison have released a new song named ‘Sunshine and Rain’, inspired by their life on the Coffs Coast. The pandemic hit local musicians hard as cancelled gigs became the new norm, but as one door closed another door opened when the band took it as an opportunity to create new music. Sunshine and Rain opens with “Living your life in lockdown, nothing more or

less to gain” and tells the story of why we wish for sunshine without embracing the rain. Songwriter and guitarist Marty Bouma explained the meaning behind the lyrics of the thought provoking song. “Everyone is always striving for ‘sunshine’ in their lives, often forgetting the fact that it is the ‘rain’ that helps you to stop and appreciate those moments of sunshine. “This song is about recognising that life is not perfect and that there will always be challenging

moments that add to the tapestry of life. “These moments help to balance out the yin and the yang and we should not necessarily shy away from that. “The lyrics are told through the eyes of somebody searching for that perfect someone when really it is the imperfections in people that make them more interesting and relatable, more human, and in the long run a 'better catch',” said Marty

Bellingen FC Team of the Month By David WIGLEY

BELLINGEN FC were announced as the Northern NSW Football team of the month for April following five wins from five to start their inaugural season in the Coastal Premier League. Some sceptics feared the Bats would be out of their depth considering their top flight team in 2021 played in men’s division two but the men from the Shire have let their results do the talking. Former Urunga FC centre back Henry Gale has

taken the helm as the Bats coach and called upon some of his former teammates to get the band back together. Urunga FC were a formidable outfit in the men’s regional top flight competition but when the team folded many players were forced to move out of the Shire and some hung up their boots to take a football sabbatical. Players who answered the call to represent the Shire returned to Bellingen and dusted down their boots to return to top-flight football in the region. With their home ground

Rangers too strong for Sawtell By David WIGLEY

WITH the match poised at 2-2 after 45 minutes, Sawtell FC did everything but score and it was the Macleay Valley Rangers who grew stronger to triumph 4-2. Sawtell enjoyed large periods of possession with their brand of passing football and created many chances peppering the

opposition goal and a missed penalty but they couldn’t find the back of the net in the second half. Sawtell coach Joe Skrtic gave his assessment of the game. “We played well when in possession and created some good goal-scoring opportunities, however, we could not capitalise on them.

“Macleay also had a strong defence which made it difficult for us to get a shot on goal. “We ran out of puff in the second half which affected our decision-making and allowed Macleay to get back in the game and take the three points,” he said. Sawtell’s next match is against the Kempsey Saints on Saturday 14 May with a 3pm kick off in front of their home crowd at Toormina Oval.

The Lions lost two potent attackers in Mabior Garang and Jemilla Oko to the National Premier League, but have filled the gap with the emergence of Tahseen Edo and Azad Qasim, who both made first team debuts.

The bumper scoreline takes the Lions past Bellingen FC on goal difference and to the top of the Coastal Premier League with one game in hand. The relentless rain has resulted in postponements and matches relocated to the synthetic fields but coach Glen Williams was glad to see the Lions back in their natural habitat. “It was great to get back on the grass again as we traveled to Taree for the match versus the Wildcats. “The field was damp but definitely playable.

“First half goals from Matti Kelleher, Habib Noorani and Lorenzo Rigoni had the score at half time 4-0. “Second half saw a couple of substitutions due to sickness and injury and the Lions went on with it to score another 6,” said Glen.

THE YORKSHIRE VET

7TWO, 7.30pm

The green pastures and hay meadows of Yorkshire are a sight to behold, but it’s the friendship and camaraderie between vets Julian Norton (above) and Peter Wright that oﬀers the real feel-good viewing. The animals and their stories are the icing on the cake. Tonight, season 11 of the family-friendly series premieres, and it’s not without its unique countryside challenges, many of whom are the furry kind. Julian heads to an emergency at Jackie’s alpaca farm, where a new mum urgently needs his help and Peter returns to the Greens’ farm.

Creativity is the name of the game in this lively competition hosted by comedian Hamish Blake (right), and tonight it pays for the teams to have their heads in the clouds. With an elimination looming at the end of the episode, the teams are given a LEGO cloud and challenged to build something amazing to live on it. With 14 hours on the clock to whip up their creations, it’s much more than an average day’s work – but for these teams it’s a dream come true. After all, most of them dedicate hours on a normal day at home to LEGO. The Brick Pit is the place where inspiration sprouts, but with around 4.4 million types of bricks to choose from, the players are spoilt for choice.

MATT WRIGHT’S WILD TERRITORY

NBN, 8.30pm

He’s a modernday Crocodile Dundee, but he’s no work of ﬁction. What’s more, he’s a family man with an adorable young son, Banjo, and photogenic wife, Kaia. Meet Matt Wright (above), a croc hunter, conservationist and all-round top bloke who is on hand to help and rescue anyone in dire straits. Wright lives a life most of us can only imagine in the remote and beautiful Northern Territory and after starring in Outback Wrangler, viewers’ taste for his exotic, actionpacked existence was whet. Tonight, in “Don’t Hold Back”, a romantic ﬁshing adventure is spoiled when Matt makes a dangerous detour, and of course there’s a wild croc chase to boot. 1305
