boats competing over two days and board and ski events taking place on Saturday. Spectators are encouraged to catch the action from the Surf Club at Park Beach, 23 Surf Club Rd, Coffs Harbour, where they might witness future Olympic champions in action. The decision by the International Olympics Committee to include Coastal Rowing in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles adds an extra layer of excitement to the event. "At the Jetty Foreshore precinct, right next to our heritage-listed Jetty, the newly introduced Olympic sport, coastal rowing, will be on display,” Dan Backhouse said. “Australian rowers representing the nation will participate in this pilot event, and the action will heat up around midday on Saturday. “This event is running in conjunction with the carnival on Park Beach and promises to be an exciting format." A strong contingent of competitors from the Coffs Coast will be vying for top honors.

"Coffs Harbour will be represented by several boat crews competing for the cash prizes on offer. “The defending NSW champions from 2022 - 2023, known as the 'Trainwrecks’, will be rowing for our club at the carnival. “They will undoubtedly aim to assert their dominance early in the season against rival crews. “The club's A crew has put in significant off-season training and is expected to feature in the finals. “Local athletes, including Lucy Wilde, Abbey and Payton Lawler, Coco Backhouse, brothers Xavier and Elliot Hulbert, Cohen Franklin, Ethan Dawson, and Cooper Gunther, will all be competing for top results. “Former Sawtell athlete Rhys Mulholand, now with the Surfers Paradise club, will also be attending the carnival and is expected to perform well. “Isabella Tait from Cudgen, who has been making waves in the surf sports arena lately, is anticipated to dominate in the U17 age group on Saturday," Backhouse concluded.

Another member, Nijole, highlighted the convenience of parking available near the hospital pool. CHERP was set up in 1985 to provide education and exercise opportunities for the local elderly demographic, adhering to the basic principle of ‘use it, don’t lose it’. Geriatrician Dr Gordon Myall was a driving force in the program’s establishment, which ultimately attracted 600 members across Tai Chi, aqua-fitness, craft and other classes that offered mental or physical stimulation as well as social connection.

“We paid an annual membership and $5 per session, with CHERP then passing on a portion of the money to the hospital,” Phyll said. Pool classes included specific workouts, especially catered to stroke rehabilitation and those with arthritis, as well as general stretching and breathing. “There’s so much more we can do in the pool than out of the water. “In the meantime, we are seizing up… we’ll have to get out the WD40 if this closure carries on,” quipped Phyll. The CHERP group feels the situation is unfair and are seeking an immediate resolution. “We had all the safety measures in place, with every class manned by three members trained in CPR and pool retrieval,” Phyll said. Urged on by their doctors who advocate for keeping active in mind, body and spirit, a core group of CHERP members have launched a petition. To sign the petition, email Phyll at petool27@gmail.com. Otherwise, the CHERP ladies suggest you write to the hospital and ask them to reopen the pool to CHERP: Chief Executive Hospital, Coffs Base Hospital, Locked Bag 812, Coffs Harbour, NSW 2450.

“PLEASE let us back into our pool.” That is the urgent message from a group of elderly members of the Coffs Harbour Education and Recreation Program (CHERP). With the closure of Coffs Harbour Hospital’s hydrotherapy pool during COVID, the reopening was highly anticipated by the keen members of the CHERP aqua-exercise group. Instead of a welcome back, they were told the pool would not be reopened to CHERP but would be accessible exclusively to the hospital’s patients. “The pool is perfect for older people, it’s purpose built with a ramp to get in and a safe four-feet shallow end,” CHERP member Phyll told News Of The Area. “The aqua-fitness class I used to go to started at 8am and we were out by 9am,” said Phyll. Fellow CHERP member Margaret said, “Older people don’t feel safe climbing in; gradually getting into the water through the ramp feels safe for us. “At our age some of us get frightened by deep water.”

land at the Jetty Foreshores for the Coffs Harbour community. City of Coffs Harbour Mayor Paul Amos put forward a Mayoral Minute on the proposal at the Council’s 9 November meeting, which was discussed and subsequently endorsed by councillors. The proposal includes an offer to purchase the Jetty Foreshores land at the City’s recently obtained market valuation, as well as the offer of 2,000 m2 of Council-owned land in the CBD to enable the NSW Government to develop key worker or affordable housing. Cr Amos said the proposal would deliver a win-win for the government and the community if the NSW

Government accepts it. “This proposal aligns with the NSW Government’s commitment to keep state government land in public ownership,” Cr Amos said. “It’s an opportunity for the NSW Government to enable what a large section of the community wants to see happen at the Foreshores. “It also means economic development could happen where it’s best suited at the precinct, and it would see the end of decadeslong uncertainty about this vital open space for our community.” Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh, however, was less than impressed with Council’s resolution. Mr Singh said the decision would “stall the Jetty Foreshores revitalisation”,

describing it as “another kick in the guts for local residents who want our wonderful city to progress”. “This decision to offer up to the NSW Government two quarter-acre blocks in Gordon St in exchange for land at the Jetty Foreshores is laughable,” he said. “City of Coffs Harbour has no plans or funding for the rejuvenation of the Jetty Foreshores, which means opportunities for our city to progress and prosper may be lost for another decade at least.” Mr Singh said the overwhelming majority of residents who took part in an “extensive consultation process” supported the draft Jetty Foreshores Masterplan and he urged the NSW Government to continue with this process. City of Coffs Harbour

General Manager Natalia Cowley responded, saying Mr Singh’s comments to the media did not accurately reflect the full resolution endorsed by Council in relation to the Jetty

Foreshores land. She said the City is offering to purchase the Jetty Foreshores land from the NSW Government at its full market valuation and, in

addition, is offering 2,000 square metres of Councilowned land in the CBD for the NSW Government to use for key worker or affordable housing.

About 7.30pm on Friday, November 10, officers attached to Coffs/Clarence Police District commenced an investigation into the alleged sexual assault of a seventeen-year-old girl at Arrawarra Beach. Following extensive

inquiries, a 34-year-old man was arrested at a property on Arrawarra Beach Road, Arrawarra, at about 5pm on Sunday, November 12. The man was taken to Coffs Harbour Police Station where he is assisting police with their inquiries. A resident has written to the City of Coffs Harbour

and the federal Department of Employment and Workplace Relations to express residents’ anger and frustration that their complaints and warnings over a long period have culminated in a young resident allegedly being sexually assaulted. The resident detailed a list of issues that are

alleged to have occurred over a period of time. “Every step of the way we have been highlighting the problems but nothing happens,” the resident said. When contacted for comment, the City of Coffs Harbour and the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations both said the alleged assault

was a police matter and did not comment on residents’ previous concerns. As inquiries continue, anyone with information, particularly anyone who may have been around the Arrawarra Beach area at the time, is urged to contact Coffs Harbour Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Rapid growth for Aboriginal language school done so for many decades. GGFS says its students are currently achieving outstanding results culturally, socially, emotionally and academically and the school has plans to continue to grow K-12. “Our mob know what to teach, and how to teach our junuybin (children),” a school spokesperson said. “Our barrmarrany (family) connect to our values of wajaarr (country), guunu-warluuny (culture) and gala miindalay-gam (wisdom), through our cultural curriculum, which centres our wajaada (on country) learning, and (puts) our junuybin first.” GGFS students are regularly taken out on country and are highlymotivated learners inside and outside school.

BEGINNING withjust fifteen students, the Giingana Gumbaynggirr Freedom School (GGFS) is finishing its second year with 53 Aboriginal students and has 72 enrolled for next year, with more on a waiting list. The school is now seeking partners to support the school for the long term as it grows. GGFS is the first bilingual school of an Aboriginal language in NSW and is based on revitalising the Gumbaynggirr language whilst offering high quality education to its students. It aims to be the first ever full immersion school in the nation, because, around the world, research shows that language immersion schools lead to success for First Nations students, and have

“At Giingana Gumbaynggirr Freedom School we position First Nations knowledge at the forefront of teaching,” said Fiona Webb, the school’s Secondary Education Development Manager. “GGFS is the first bilingual school of an Aboriginal language in NSW and we are committed to striving for academic excellence among all students by developing and implementing innovative practices through language and education. “We believe that children who are strong in their identity engage better in education.” The school is currently at capacity in its current building, and, with the aim of growing by two grades every year, more space for its ‘junuybin’ to learn is critical.

The school has designed a four-classroom demountable to ‘future

proof’ it until 2025, but needs financial support. To support GGFS, go

to chuffed.org and search ‘Giingana’.

“This plan outlines the shift in our initial vision for the hub based on the community's input. “Crucially, the Action Plan can serve as a resource for any community group or organisation in the Orara Valley seeking funding or

support for a local project. “Our reinvigorated committee is committed to driving this project forward with renewed vigour. “In the coming year, we have ambitious plans to bring this vision to fruition.” The project was auspiced

by Glenreagh Heartstart and received funding from the Foundation for Rural Regional Renewal and the Yulgilbar Foundation. For more information visit www.facebook.com/ heartstartglenreagh.org.au/.

or repurposing an existing one. “Over the last six months, we conducted several informationgathering activities, including workshops with community representatives, postcard surveys, one-onone consultations, and community outreach at the Orara Valley Fair. “Subsequently, we organised a feedback opportunity at the Timber Festival stall and convened another community workshop to determine the way forward,” he said. Based on the insights gathered from the community, the group is moving forward with a plan to create a network of interconnected hubs throughout the broader

THE ORARA Valley Community Hub Action Plan was officially introduced to the public at the Glenreagh markets on Saturday 4 November. The Action Plan represents the culmination of a six-month process involving engagement and consultation with the Orara Valley community to identify their needs. Chris Hanson, President of Glenreagh Heartstart Inc, provided an overview of the initiative. “In May 2023, we initiated the Orara Valley Community Hub project with the aim of establishing a community hub in Glenreagh, either by constructing a new building

Orara Valley. “These hubs will make use of existing facilities and assets like community halls, and we are exploring the concept of a mobile service to support this network,” Mr Hanson said. “The hub will take on a virtual dimension and will aim to enhance the capabilities of existing groups and organisations.” The Orara Valley Community Hub Action Plan is a reflection of community engagement and transformation, marking a pivotal step towards enhancing the Orara Valley and its communities. “The results of our sixmonth consultation are detailed in the Action Plan,” Mr Hanson said.

Climate scientists raise alarm over ocean warming

A NEW report by the Climate Council on ocean warming has been released, warning that Australian ocean’s are in crisis as “extreme heat punishes marine life and raises the spectre of irreversible changes with profound consequences for all life on our planet”. The Climate Council’s 'Code Blue: Oceans in Crisis' report reveals the immense amount of climate-change induced heat currently being absorbed by the world’s oceans is equivalent to boiling the Sydney Harbour every eight minutes. Key findings include that the rate of ocean warming has more than doubled since the mid 1990s and that global sea levels have risen 20cm since the start of the 20th century, with the rate of rise accelerating. In addition, the Climate Council ran a highly targeted survey of 30 leading ocean scientists across five continents. All (100 percent) were ‘extremely’ or ‘very’ concerned about climate-driven changes to the world’s oceans. Half (53 percent) said these changes were outpacing scientific predictions. Overwhelmingly, these scientists agreed ‘rapidly phasing out fossil fuels’ is the single most important action governments could take to address ocean warming. Report author and the Climate Council’s Research Director, Dr Simon Bradshaw said, “The science can’t be any clearer: our oceans are in deep trouble. “Today the ocean is absorbing excess heat energy that’s equivalent to five

Hiroshima bomb explosions every second, or enough to boil Sydney Harbour every eight minutes. “As our climate changes, driven by rampant burning of coal, oil and gas, our seas are transforming before our eyes. “More frequent and severe marine heatwaves are pushing coral reefs to the brink, ice sheets are melting at an alarming rate, ocean currents are slowing and seas are rising. “The climate crisis is also an ocean crisis. “In hospital emergency rooms, a code blue is called when a very serious lifethreatening event is underway. “We are calling a 'code blue' for our oceans today, because this threatens all the species that inhabit them, the people who depend on them, as well as all life on land. “Over the past few decades as the climate has warmed, the oceans have done an incredible job of protecting us by absorbing CO2 and an immense amount of heat, but there’s a limit to what they can take and we are close to crossing dangerous tipping points. “We must scale up the use of clean energy like solar and wind, backed by storage, as quickly as we can so the use of coal, oil and gas is phased out. “Every step that cuts pollution will help secure our future.” Ocean scientist Professor Gretta Pecl, Director for the Centre for Marine Socioecology at the University of Tasmania, author of the Australian ocean section of the latest IPCC report and report co-author added, “Make no mistake, ocean scientists around the world are growing increasingly concerned about rapid and intensifying changes to our oceans. “While much of the worry for the brutal summer ahead is quite rightly about the impact on our iconic Great Barrier Reef, the scientific community is also extremely concerned about the Great Southern Reef. “With forecasts of unprecedented and 'off the charts' marine heat this summer,

these critical marine ecosystems face risk of utter devastation. “We’re observing the transformation of the oceans in real time, as marine species move to survive. In Australia, at least 200 marine species have shifted since 2003, with the vast majority headed south. “As waters warm further south, many will have nowhere left to go. “While climate change has already caused extensive change to our oceans - and we’ll continue to see devastating impacts for decades - stronger action by governments to reign in fossil fuels right now can limit future harms and ensure more species and ecosystems are given a fighting chance. “Scientists agree: the single most important action we can take now is to leave fossil fuels in the polluting past - and it has to happen this decade." The Code Blue report also raises concerns for the future of surfing, claiming sea level rise and changing wind and swell patterns threaten to undermine treasured surf spots around the country, disrupting one of Australia’s most iconic pastimes. Pro-surfer Adrian ‘Ace’ Buchan, Surfing Australia Deputy Chairman, has joined the Climate Council’s call to declare a Code Blue emergency, adding, “Surfers have a deep and spiritual connection to the ocean and we are deeply concerned about the devastating impact the climate crisis is having on our big blue playground. “Erosion is threatening our most iconic surfing spots. “Our water is being polluted from flood runoff and dangerous jellyfish moving south. Loss of coral reefs and impacts on sandbars, is not just altering where and how waves break, but is also having devastating impacts on marine life. "This is all terrible news for the millions of ocean loving Aussies - every one of whom should be concerned and take note. “This is a call to action: we must work to draw attention to the ocean’s plight and push for decisive and rapid climate action now.” To read the full report, visit www. climatecouncil.org.au/resources/codeblue-our-oceans-in-crisis/.

Urunga remembers the fallen on Remembrance Day By Susan KONTIC

MORE than 100 years after the end of what was described as “the war to end all wars”, Remembrance Day remains a powerful reminder of the terrible cost of war. As tens of thousands of Australians around the country came together to pay their respects to those who lost their lives in service to the country, residents of Urunga and surrounding areas gathered at the town’s cenotaph a little before 11am on Saturday November 11 to

observe Remembrance Day. “The date and time are significant,” said RSL sub-Branch President John Piggott, “In the first great war the armistice was signed at 11am on the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918.” After more than four years of continuous warfare, the guns of the Western Front fell silent. Originally known throughout the Commonwealth as Armistice Day, it became Remembrance Day after the Second World War, but the tradition of pausing at

the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month continues today. November 11 is now acknowledged as a day to commemorate those who died or suffered in all wars, and to reflect on the horrors that war inflicts. The thoughts of most local people were directed to soldiers from Urunga and surrounding villages, particularly descendants of those soldiers whose names are etched on the cenotaph. Many of those attending the service wore red poppies pinned to a shoulder or lapel, and in

q Annette Rieper, Secretary, and members of the local Country Women’s Association branch, created this poppy centrepiece in honour of Remembrance Day.

q Bellingen Shire Mayor Steve Allan was one of a number of people to place a wreath on the cenotaph.

q President of the Urunga RSL sub-Branch, John Piggott, presented a very moving and well-researched address, with a little help from his wife, Barb.

his address John Piggott explained their significance. “Poppies were chosen to be a symbol, or emblem, for Remembrance Day because they grew wild in the battlefields where the soldiers had previously fought, and they bloomed through the devastated earth,” he said. Members of the Urunga CWA created a poppy centrepiece that was draped over a pole in front of the cenotaph by Annette Rieper, secretary of the local Country Women’s Association branch. Annette explained that the red poppies symbolise the soldiers killed and injured, while the white

poppies stood for the nurses, and purple for the animals. Wreaths were laid on the cenotaph by a number of local organisations, including Greg Rieper representing Urunga RSL sub-Branch, Barb Piggott, representing C.ex Group, and by a representative of the Urunga Lions Club. Bellingen Shire Mayor Steve Allan was also in attendance and laid a wreath. In keeping with tradition, the haunting Last Post was sounded a few minutes before 11am and was followed by a minute's silence at precisely 11am. q The Urunga cenotaph was the focus of the Remembrance Day service.

The flag was lowered as the National Anthem was sung.

Kimberley rock art the focus of ADFAS talk By Andrea FERRARI

COMING home, the Australian Decorative Fine Arts Society (ADFAS) final presentation for 2023 is set in Australia. On Monday 20 November, at the National Cartoon Gallery, guest lecturer Dr June Ross will be talking about the Kimberley rock art in northwestern Australia. Internationally acknowledged for its beauty

and scope, many theories have been proposed to explain the content and stylistic changes evident in the art. Some theories about this rock art are far flung and have seemingly been plucked from the air and others based on decades of data collection. June’s talk focuses on explanations for the stylistic changes evident in Kimberley rock art and the roles art played in

mediating the dynamic social and environmental changes faced by past Aboriginal societies. As Adjunct Professor of Archaeology at the University of New England (UNE), her area of expertise covers rock art, arid zone archaeology and Australian Aboriginal art. She has researched and written in depth about this very old and distinctive Kimberley rock art. After completing

Kimberley rock art is the focus of the ADFAS talk on Monday 20 November.

q Dr June Ross will be talking about the Kimberley rock art in north-western Australia for the final ADFAS event for 2023. a degree in Aboriginal Studies and Archaeology at UNE, June undertook postgraduate studies focused on rock art in northwest Queensland. Always drawn to remote areas of Australia, she completed a PhD in Central Australia researching rock art and its role in ritual. More recently, along with colleagues, June has been Chief Investigator on three Australian Research Council projects with a focus on archaeology and rock art. In the last two decades she has taught

courses at UNE on Rock Art, Art and Society and Australian Archaeology, supervised postgraduate students, produced rock art management and conservation plans for government agencies, and worked closely with Indigenous communities in

Central Australia and the New England. In 2024 ADFAS Coffs Coast is changing its name to ArtsNational Coffs Coast in line with the national organisation. There’s a taster for next year’s program on www. adfascoffscoast.org.au.

THE Great Southern BioBlitz (GSB) is back for its fourth year, with the local region gearing up to make the most of this citizen science flora, fauna, fish and fungi data recording project. The goal is to encourage awareness and engagement amongst individuals, groups and government in our environment. Open to the whole of the southern hemisphere, the local region for the purposes of the BioBlitz includes the Coffs, Bellingen and Nambucca LGAs. Over four full days, from Friday 24 November until Monday 27 November, the idea is to find, photograph and upload sightings of plants and wildlife from the local area using the iNaturalist app.

Once again, GSB stalwart Nick Lambert, a schoolteacher and life-long local resident of the Coffs Harbour district, has taken on the role of organiser for our local area. “I have a fair amount of experience using the iNaturalist platform and hope to encourage other locals to engage with their natural environments and take a closer look at what is around them, sometimes literally in their backyards,” Nick told News Of The Area. This year Nick is assisted by Jodie Armytage, another local environment enthusiast. It’s easy to join in, says Nick. “All you need to do to be involved is create a free iNaturalist account via the website or the app. “You then take photos of any living things during the

what you've seen when you upload, to help you make an initial ID,” said Nick. Once uploaded, your sighting can be viewed by the iNaturalist community, made up of amateur naturalists and experts alike, both local and international. The community will help to identify what you have seen.

Questions and learning are encouraged. “We are lucky to live in a highly biodiverse area of Australia with a huge range of different environments to explore. “Sub-tropical and temperate rainforests, coral reef, sandy and rocky shorelines, saltmarsh and estuaries, wet and dry forest, heathland and many more variations of all of these. “It's a great opportunity for families with kids or people of any age really, that have a particular or general interest in our local wildlife, to get outside and explore, enjoy and learn.” Last year the Coffs region came fifth for the overall number of species sighted and sixth for the number of observations uploaded out of the 216 participating

regions across the Southern hemisphere. “Not bad,” said Nick. “We are hoping to increase the participant numbers this year. “It is free and open to anyone.” To find out more and sign up visit www.facebook.com/ coffsbioblitz To participate, go to the iNaturalist homepage and create a free account. There is also an app for devices. Visit www.inaturalist. org/home The Coffs Botanic Garden is hosting free fifteenminute tutorials on using the iNaturalist app on Saturday 25.

Biodiversity can rebound after bushfires, but recovery lags in the most severely burnt areas Differing post-fire recovery regions

For the study, the researchers used tens of thousands of wildlife observations of multiple groups of invertebrates, plants, and vertebrates collected by citizen scientists as part of the Environment Recovery Project and the iNaturalist platform to investigate how biodiversity has recovered after the fires and how the type of fire is essential for determining recovery trajectories. “This initiative was critical, as long-term biodiversity monitoring data covering multiple groups of organisms, such as plants, insects, birds, and more, especially at the scale of these mega-fires, does not exist outside of citizen science data,” Mr Gorta said. “These data allow us to draw conclusions about the overall effects of these events and determine conservation and management approaches for post-fire recovery.” Overall, the researchers discovered species diversity increased in burnt regions compared to before the fires

in both burnt and unburnt parts. But, compared to unburnt regions, species diversity significantly decreased in areas exposed to extreme fire severity. “The increase in species diversity, or richness, in burnt areas was greater than the increase after fires in unburned areas, which suggests they can recover well if fires are not too severe,” A/Prof. Cornwell said.

“But pushing them into this high severity zone has the opposite effect on biodiversity.” The researchers say they’re not sure whether or when diversity in the extreme severity regions will fully recover. “We don’t have the data yet to know whether diversity will bounce back – a lot will depend upon whether they burn again with the same intensity in upcoming fire seasons,” A/Prof. Cornwell said. “It implies that in the immediate post-fire aftermath, we need to focus our efforts on supporting recovery in areas that were subject to the highest severity burns.” In addition to the findings at the biodiversity scale, the study also identified how species with post-fire recovery mechanisms can drive response patterns, particularly for plant species. For example, plants with limited resprouting capacity after severe fires in rainforests are particularly vulnerable to increasingly frequent and intense fires. “The study highlighted adaptations such as firecued flowering, which is

a key part of the life cycle of many Australian native plants, potentially increased the detectability and attractiveness of plants in the post-fire environment,” said Dr Mark Ooi, co-author of the study. “This provides both an understanding of the post-fire patterns we see and highlights some of the challenges in surveying biodiversity after these events.” The researchers plan to conduct further studies monitoring different postfire impacts, including which species are most at risk. They say the efforts of citizen scientists to capture observations represent not only a critical data resource but also reflect the willingness of the public to participate in science to protect the environment. “Fire seasons are only going to worsen under the current climate projections,” Mr Gorta said. “We need amateur scientists to help grow the dataset further so we can continue to monitor and manage the environmental impacts of wildfires in a rapidly warming and fireconducive climate.”

context is crucial,” A/Prof. Cornwell said. “For example, many Australian species can persist, even with very high severity fires, but some species may struggle when extreme fire severity occurs over large scales.” Simon Gorta, lead author of the study and a PhD candidate at the UNSW Centre for Ecosystem Science, said the research will help scientists and conservation managers understand which animal and plant species may be impacted by future fires, and identify the areas most needing monitoring and management. “Our findings illustrate the extent and severity that fires can reach under extensive drought and above-average temperatures, conditions typical of climate change projections,” Mr Gorta said. “As we grapple with the effects of these events on lives and property, we should also be concerned about how our wildlife and ecosystems respond, and how this can be better managed.”

EXTREME fires drove biodiversity declines despite overall resilience after the 2019-2020 Black Summer bushfire season in NSW, a new study suggests. The Black Summer Bushfires burnt an unprecedented area of over five million hectares of eastern Australia, with severe economic, environmental, and human impacts. Now, a study conducted by University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney researchers shows plant and animal life has struggled to rebound in locations subjected to the most severe fires. The study, published in the journal Global Change Biology, analysed differences in species diversity in the aftermath of the 2019-2020 bushfire season in New South Wales. The researchers found that up to eighteen months post-fire, biodiversity can recover after fires of low to high severity (when fires burnt the understorey and scorched or partially consumed the canopy) – and did increase a year and a half after the Black Summer Bushfires. However, areas burnt by fires of extreme severity (when fires completely consumed the canopy) experienced reduced levels of biodiversity compared to unburnt and other less severe burnt regions. Associate Professor Will Cornwell, senior co-author of the study from the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, said the findings highlight the fire adaptations of Australian fauna and flora, but also that these adaptations have limits. “Fire can have both positive and negative effects on biodiversity, and the

Artists' event takes a break By Andrea FERRARI

ARTISTS in the Garden (AITG) is taking a break as the directors review the event format. A free and inclusive art experience, with all forms of artistic expression welcomed, AITG has been enthusiastically supported by the community since its inception. The grassroots, artist-led initiative succeeded in its purpose to bring art to people and people to art. “Public art forms an essential part of healthy communities; we will endeavour to bring connection and meaning to future event formats,” codirector Tammy Mills-Thom told News Of The Area.

festival from last year,” he said. Artists in the Garden was supported by a City of Coffs Harbour Arts and Cultural grant from August 2022 to July 2023, which meant all the events were free from August 2022, for one year. The grant was auspiced by the Friends of the Botanic Gardens Inc., who administered the funds on behalf of AITG. The North Coast Botanic Garden proved to be an ideal location for the events, with the combination of art and nature being the perfect

recipe for a Sunday afternoon, with only one AITG afternoon rained off. Directors James and Tammy are proud of the achievements of the concept and how the event played out each month. The pair said AITG has delivered more than can be measured by mere statistics. “It has given public art the space it deserves in the community,” said Tammy. “I love the synergy, spontaneity and sharing the event generates. “Art is a medium of expression and connection and every event brings its own energy and surprises; it is diverse and inclusive and it's just fantastic to see people

involved and enjoying it all.” “I really enjoy seeing people given the opportunity to attempt something they would not have normally considered,” James told NOTA. “From its inception, AITG has been a level playing field that emphasises experience over outcome. “Such is the joy, inspiration, and creativity of Artists in the Garden.” Broad, local promotional networking proved effective in attracting performers and participants, with an average of seventeen artists attending each event. These included visual artists, spoken word, writers, poets, musicians, and songwriters from a diverse

Christmas Bowl Appeal launches By Andrea FERRARI

THE Christmas Bowl Appeal 2023 will be launched by the Coffs Harbour Council of Churches at Mary Help of Christians Church in Sawtell on Friday 8 December. Everyone’s invited to come along and join in the carols from 6:30pm before an ecumenical service starting at 7pm. The singing and service are followed by supper, supplied by those attending bringing share plates. All profits from this

Christmas-focused evening will be donated to Act For Peace. For more than 70 years, Act For Peace has brought people together to create a more just and peaceful world. Act For Peace is the international humanitarian charity of the National Council of Churches in Australia. Drew Bogema, spokesperson for the Coffs Harbour Council of Churches and Congregation Chairperson of the Coffs Harbour Uniting Church,

told News Of The Area, “Act For Peace is currently contributing to those suffering from the invasion of Ukraine and the turmoil caused by terrorists in the Middle East, whether in Israel, Palestine, or Syria as well as the refugee catastrophe in Europe.” The Christmas Bowl Appeal began on Christmas Day 1949, when the Reverend Frank Byatt in Victoria placed a simple empty bowl on the table and asked his guests, if they wished, to contribute to the cost of the meal.

The monies collected were then gifted to people who had fled the horrors of World War Two and were suffering as refugees. Today this simple gesture has grown into a world-wide movement, the Christmas Bowl Appeal, where over 2000 Christian churches come together at Christmas to share this tradition and help the world’s most vulnerable. “Since 1949, compassionate Christians across Australia have followed Rev Frank Byatt’s

legacy, coming together each Christmas to provide safety in exile for people forced from their homes by conflict and disaster,” said Drew. “Your gift through attending the Christmas Bowl will support local partners to meet urgent needs and help create a world where uprooted people have a safe place to belong. “Do come along to the Christmas Bowl Appeal to prepare yourself for Christmas, and to share with those in need. “Carols from 6:30pm

Many original performing artists were given the first chance to showcase their talent to an appreciative audience. Launched in September 2022, the Photos In the Garden festival, sponsored by Coffs Central, was a huge success amongst participants and the community audience. “While there are no current applications for grants in the pipeline, when our next projects are decided on sponsorship will be warmly welcomed,” said James. will begin our Christmas celebration as together we act with justice and hope to bring love and peace in our world,” said Drew.

Pokémon club launches in Sawtell By Andrea FERRARI

THE Pokémon craze is alive and well in Sawtell and surrounds thanks to the formation of a club created by Matt Tobin, a year 4 teacher at William Bayldon Public School. The Sawtell Pokémon Club is an evolution of weekly morning sessions Matt held at the school to encourage reading and positive social interactions between students. “Over the two years of those sessions, I had a lot of parents from other schools in the local area state that they wished there was something like this for their children,” Matt told News Of The Area. “I can see the educational and social benefits of

Pokémon the Trading Card Game, so I decided to trial six weeks worth of sessions at the Sawtell Bowls and Rec Club venue and it really took off.” With the free-to-join, notfor-profit club established, it is fast turning into a social hub attended by kids and supported by parents and carers. Recently, they celebrated a Pokémon Club participant’s tenth birthday. The Club also gave away some Halloween booster packs on the Monday before Halloween, and Matt is planning a special Pokémon Bundle Christmas give-away on Monday 18 December. “And we’re currently taking interest for a Pizza and Pokémon afternoon,” he said. Seeing positive, genuine

interactions between children, their friends and family members is the best thing about the Club, according to Matt. “Win or lose, children who participate are always smiling, happy and appreciative of the opportunity to play against others with similar interests in a safe, supportive environment.” The Club attracts equal numbers of boys and girls, from ages eight to fourteen. “The structure of the game, our current set up and my experience teaching students with additional needs, allows me to support neurological diverse participants, by making adjustments or modifications to the game or environment.” The Club meets at Sawtell

questions and encourage communication and fair play between players. “I also try to find time to interact with parents, carers and family members or even encourage them to have a go. “So far, every parent who’s learnt the game, loves it,” he said. Currently, the club can cater for up to 30 participants at a time. New members are welcome and parents are encouraged to join the club’s Facebook group by searching Sawtell Pokémon Club, the best route to making enquiries.

Melbourne Cup lunch supports Legacy A FABULOUS Melbourne Cup lunch in support of Legacy took place at the delightful, ocean-view Rattle Restaurant, in Emerald Beach on cup day. A splendid gathering of smartly turned-out Coffs Coast folks were treated to a gourmet Rattle platter menu, including delicious seafood and drinks, sophisticated musical entertainment by River Williams and Marty Robinson, and a crystal-clear big-screen TV to watch the racing. Ladies pulled out all stops to match the theme of 'Coastal Spring Glamour'.

The Fashions on the Field ladies' prize was awarded to Gabby Smith, who wore a striking marine-blue dress with a head-piece of her own creation which featured flowers of intense blue and white with matching earrings. Judge Sarah Charlesworth, a veteran of the fashion industry, complimented Gabby's channeling of Frida Kahlo as “very on-trend”. “Sadly, too few men rose to the same standard, and best-dressed man was awarded, by majority vote, to dapper baby Toby,” said

Legatee Christopher Chayko. “The Coffs Coast Legacy Woolgoolga Chapter greatly appreciates the support of Hugh and Lou and the team at Rattle for such a sumptuous, good-value lunch. “Thanks also to Fashions on the Field prize voucher donors Lalu Lalu Boutique, Bodyworks Woolgoolga, Pilates and Yoga with MaryAnn and Rattle Restaurant too! “The sum of $300.00 was raised for Legacy from an element of each ticket price and other donations gratefully received,” Mr Chayko said.

Women’s art celebrated By Andrea FERRARI

‘GARDEN of Life’ is an upcoming ceramic and painting exhibition at Sawtell Art Gallery (SAG), opening at 6pm on Saturday 18 November. This exhibition is billed as a tribute to women in the arts from around the world, celebrating spirit, colour, art

and culture. The presenting group is a local women’s art collective, established in 2015, which has since held bi-annual exhibitions. This is the fourth exhibition by the group. “Twelve local, busy, vibrant women who make art and have lots of fun in the process,” member Paula

James told News Of The Area. All proceeds from this event are being donated to the Warrina Women’s Refuge, which offers safe, short-term accommodation for women and their children who are escaping domestic and family violence.

TAFE NSW’s tourism training in the limelight

q TAFE NSW Head Teacher Tourism and Hospitality Philip Caldicott, TAFE NSW studens Isaiha Kelly and Alistar Driver, BMNAC Enterprise Director Kamla Webb and BMNAC Tour Guide and former TAFE NSW student, Ronan Singleton.

By Andrea FERRARI

TAFE NSW has been announced as a finalist in the 2023 National Travel Industry Awards (NTIA) for Most Outstanding Travel Industry Training Institution. This nomination follows years of work by TAFE NSW to realign course delivery to offer more flexible training solutions, to prepare students for success in a constantly evolving sector. A hybrid training model of delivery has been adopted, minimising employer down time and providing learners with a range of study options to suit their work commitments. TAFE NSW Executive Director of Education and

Skills (Sydney region) Raf Marcellino said the nomination recognises TAFE NSW’s focus on establishing and maintaining close relationships with employers as a key priority and helps to identify emerging trends and challenges of the industry. “We are actively working with Destination NSW to optimise our training for evolving needs of the industry.” In the recent NSW Tourism Awards, supported by Destination NSW, TAFE NSW partner the Bularri Muurlay Nyanggan Aboriginal Corporation (BMNAC) won both a gold and a bronze award. “Cultural tourism is a significant growth sector for

regional NSW, particularly in the Coffs Coast region,” Dr Marcellino said. “We are helping to create opportunities in this space through courses like a Certificate III in Tourism, with a focus on Aboriginal culture, that includes work placement partnerships with local Aboriginal organisations like the BMNAC. “We also offer a Certificate III Guiding course, where students learn to conduct tours on Country.” TAFE NSW strives to provide the training needed for the industry to capitalise on opportunities for growth. . The National Travel Industry Awards are run each year by the Australian Travel Industry Association and are

followed by a march through the city to Observatory Hill. To celebrate both International Men’s Day and Movember, the Coffs Hotel is holding promotions and will donate to the Movember Foundation. General Manager Luke Van den Boom said he was concerned about men’s health and decided to do something to contribute. “International Men’s Day ties in with Movember so we were motivated to have conversations about men’s health by the slogan ‘Healthy men, healthy world’ (from the Australian Men’s Health Forum).” The current International Men’s Day movement was established in Trinidad and Tobago by Dr Jerome Teelucksingh, who chose the date to honour his father's birthday. He promotes International Men's Day as not just a gendered day but a day where all issues affecting men and boys can be addressed.

His International Men’s Day organisation has ‘6 Pillars’. The first pillar is to promote positive male role models, not just movie stars and sports men but every day, working class men who are living decent, honest lives. Others are to celebrate men’s positive contributions to society, community, family, marriage, child care, the environment and to focus on all facets of men’s health and wellbeing. The final pillars are about highlighting discrimination against men, improving gender relations and promoting gender equality and generally creating a safer, better world where people can be safe and grow to reach their full potential. The International Men’s Day organisation has a theme for each November 19, and, for 2023, it is ‘Zero Male Suicide’, targeting a major aspect of men’s health that concerns almost every men’s organisation.

highly regarded. The NTIA recognises excellence in the Australian travel industry, through

a process which includes nominating, voting and judging candidates. The winners will be

announced at a ceremony held in Melbourne on Saturday 18 November, 2023.

John Mandile, from MENtors for Men, said men tend to isolate themselves under stress from issues such as partnership break ups or loss of work. Mr Mandile’s organisation, one of a number of Coffs Coast support groups for men,

works with men to help them move on to the next stage of their lives after upheavals in their lives. “We try to present positive scenarios to our mentees and help them to move on,” John said. “We help them see their

potential and work with them on strategies to fulfill it. “We wholeheartedly support the aims of International Men’s Day.” Mr Mandile can be contacted at 0419 258 023. Crisis support is available from Lifeline on 13 11 14.

International Men’s Day in Movember By Andrew VIVIAN

BEFORE March each year, as publicity for International Women’s Day ramps up, a cry goes out from a small section of the population of “What about International Men’s Day?”. Well, there is one, on Sunday, November 19, and it’s been running on this date since 1999. Fortuitously, International Men’s Day is in ‘Movember’, which began in Melbourne in 2003 when two friends joked about making moustaches a “thing” again, and then grew it into an institution to raise money for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health and suicide prevention. Various individual countries have been celebrating a day for men since the 1960s. The first Australian International Men’s Day took place in 1994. A rally took place in Sydney which began with a gathering at Circular Quay

Cheers all round for Landcare legends By Andrea FERRARI CHEERS of “Hear!

All three awards received a great number of nominations, requiring serious deliberation by the judges to name the most notable amongst these Landcare legends.

Local conservationist Ashley Love was guest speaker at the awards event, covering his predictions for the region’s conservation,

noting amongst other points the development of the Great Koala National Park and the advantages of using drones in spotting koalas, gliders, possums and owls. Landcare President Barry Powells thanked two Life Members, Ron Smith and Desnee McCosker, for their attendance and continued work in protecting the environment. Barry also thanked the City of Coffs Harbour’s Coastal Works team. “They do fantastic work for us; they are unsung heroes. “Council plays a significant role in accessing the environment levy funding which is the main driving force for keeping us (Landcare) alive,” he said.

Multicultural festival shines bright light on diverse communities By Andrea FERRARI

THE first of its kind to be held in Coffs Harbour, Saturday’s International Food and Dance Festival well and truly lived up to the hype. With a theme of ‘A bright light in a worried world’, 240 locals and their children filled the Cavanbah Hall on Saturday 11 November to watch dancing and music performances and enjoy traditional food from around the world in a warm atmosphere of multicultural collaboration and connection. The International Food and Dance Festival was the dream and creation of Htun Htun Oo, a well-known citizen and businessperson in Coffs Harbour. The event’s success is being put down to the

dedicated work of a large and multicultural organising committee. “But, more than anything else, the success of the festival was due to all the spectacular and talented multicultural performers whose dancing and singing delighted their audience,” Htun told News Of The Area. “For everyone present at this wonderful occasion, while they were listening to and watching the joyous multicultural dancing and singing, the International Food and Dance Festival truly created a bright light in a worried world.” Htun intended this festival to demonstrate to Coffs Harbour, and to the world that “we all can and must live together peacefully, and that this can be done by

helping, caring for and loving each other”. Uncle Richard Widders provided the Welcome to Country before City of Coffs Harbour councillor Tony Judge opened the festival. Mr Judge spoke about how Australia has benefited from migration and multiculturalism. “Modern Australia was built on migration,” he said. “People who leave their own country and their own culture to seek a better life in a new place make great citizens. “They are courageous, ambitious and willing to take risks. “They are the people who have built our country. “We undoubtedly have a richer culture now, most obviously in the choice

of food and the variety of cultural experiences available to us,” Mr Judge said. “More importantly, the diversity in our culture has allowed us to see the world in a different, more realistic way.” Deputy Mayor Sally

DESPITE “some miserable weather”, the first weekend of the Coffs Coast Festival of Motor Sport (CCFMS) brought with it some high octane action. The first event, an Open Drift event at Raleigh Raceway on November 4, brought together a strong field, ignoring periods of rain. Sunday brought more wet weather, but the show went on. The Kempsey Sporting Car Club hosted the first round of the Festival’s Hill

Climb Tri Challenge. It was a different story for the motorbikes at Kempsey, with the event “totally washed out”. Bob Carle, chair of CCFMS and Coffs City Rotary told News Of The Area, “The Burnouts at Raleigh Raceway brought about fifteen cars which performed the best they could to make smoke on a wet track. “A good day was had by all.” The Coffs City Rotary Clubs Motor Show n Shine took place in the middle undercover car park at Park

Townley spoke of the great contribution that diverse communities have made to life on the Coffs Coast. “One in seven people in Coffs Harbour was born overseas,” Ms Townley said. “That diversity in culture makes our region a better place to live.” Ms Townley praised the efforts of Htun Htun Oo in organising such a successful event, expressing her hope that similar events would be held in the future. The delicious food, provided free, included dishes from Afghanistan, Indian, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as seafood pasta salads and Western foods. With more than enough food supplied, the surplus was dispatched to those in need.

“I packed at least eighteen food boxes for local homeless people after the event which Pastor Joseph from Salvation Army Church delivered to homeless in Coffs Harbour,” said Htun. Taking place on Remembrance Day, Tony Judge took the opportunity to explain the purpose of the day and instigated a minute of silence at 11:11am. “That is the first time multicultural communities have held recognition together for Remembrance Day,” said Htun. The multicultural organising committee would like to thank and acknowledge the work and contributions of participants, donors, volunteers and the people who filled the hall with their attendance.

Crowd numbers were reported as “better than expected with the weather conditions we had”. The day rounded out with a trophy presentation sponsored by Shannon’s Insurance with the gift of Bowden’s Car Care products for the winners. With events throughout November, the Coffs Coast Festival of Motor Sport continues this weekend. First up on Saturday November 18 is 104.1 CHY FM’s Amazing Scavenger Hunt Scramble. On Sunday November 19, racers will contest the second round of the Hill Climb Tri Challenge at Raleigh Raceway. On Saturday, November 25 the action continues

with the Quality Accounting Coffs Coast 100 Rally and a Speedway event at Grafton. On Sunday November 26, the final round of the Hill Climb Tri Series will be held at Grafton Car Club’s Mountainview track.

THE Jetty Memorial Theatre hosted the NSW premiere of Atomic the Musical, with a local production company and cast from the Coffs Harbour Musical and Comedy Company (CHMCC), on Friday 3 November. Having a ten-year history, Atomic has been performed across Australia and overseas, with the Coffs Harbour opening night drawing attendance from the writer and composer. “It was a great privilege having the writer and composer of the show, Danny Ginges and Philip Foxman, travel from Sydney to attend all the shows over the opening weekend, including participating in an informative Q and A on Sunday, 5 November,” Annamarie Cohen from CHMCC told News Of The Area.

Danny Ginges said that since Atomic held its initial showcase ten years ago, he and Philip Foxman had seen nine productions across three continents. “Unlike Disney and many other musicals, there is no rigid template for Atomic,” Mr Ginges said. “The sets, costumes, artwork etc change each time in an organic process that has never failed to surprise and delight us. “Coffs Harbour is a six-hour drive from the big smoke of Sydney. “We were expecting hokey… we got awesome.” Danny said transitions that had been a little clunky in previous versions were seamless, and that the set was genius. “And the performances were outstanding,”

Atomic is described as ‘an explosive new rock musical produced by the Coffs Harbour Musical Comedy Company, the same people who brought School of Rock, Priscilla and Mamma Mia to the Coffs Harbour stage’.

THE NEW ROCK MUSICAL

Atomic Assistant Director Tahlia Stagg commented, “It has been an absolute privilege to work with the incredible local talent of the Coffs Coast. "The cast and band have spent months rehearsing, and to now have all the added elements of lighting, sound, and projections come together, this production has become even more spectacular than we could have hoped.” Attending opening night, Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh said, “An amazing show that touches on a confronting period in modern history.” Founder and Artistic Director of Naidu Theatre Company in Woolgoolga, Jade Naidu said, “The cast, crew and creatives have made me fall in love with the music and songs after one viewing - it’s a show about friendship, betrayal and love told through incredible stories that still exist and matter.” The company has also been putting on some special performances. On Saturday 11 November they presented a special accessibility AUSLAN viewing and on Thursday 16 November the show was a Veteran Mentors charity performance. Director Rebecca thought that being a show that touched on war, she wanted to give something back to veterans and it was a cast member who is a veteran, Ben Mclean, who suggested a Veterans Mentors fundraiser performance. Veteran Mentors (VW) youth military programs are designed to assist children, aged twelve to seventeen, to become accountable for both their behaviour and decisions. These programs are ideal for children addicted to technology or who are demonstrating poor behaviours, low selfesteem and lack of respect. VM’s aim is to improve family relationships, contribute to safer communities and enrich the lives of its participants, supporting them to start fresh with leadership qualities, higher self-esteem and greater resilience. Atomic the Musical is on until Sunday 26 November.

ENTERTAINMENT EATERY

Dynamic young duo play Coffs Harbour on national tour

By Andrew VIVIAN

VIOLIN and piano is a classic combination, capable of both great intimacy and intensity, and, combined with youthful energy, makes for a wonderful evening’s entertainment. 21-year-old Dutch violinist Noa Wildschut appeared live on Dutch national television at Amsterdam’s Prinsengracht youth concert at age six and, aged seven, made her debut in the Main Hall of the Amsterdam Concertgebouw at the ‘Night of the Promising’ concert. Only five years older, German pianist Elisabeth Brauss is already making waves across Europe. These two young artists will begin their Australian tour this week and Coffs Harbour audiences can hear them on Thursday, November 30 at 7.30pm at the Coffs Harbour Education Campus, presented by the Coffs Harbour Music Society and Musica Viva Australia. There will be a pre-concert talk at 6pm. In Australia Ms Widschut will play a 1750 violin by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini, previously played by violinist Joshua Bell. As a member of the BBC New Generation Artist (NGA) scheme, Ms Brauss has many solo, chamber and concerto engagements across the UK, including her debut at the BBC Proms, performing Mozart with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra in 2021. ‘Wildschut and Brauss’ have been practising a specially-commissioned new Australian composition created for them by Melbourne composer May Lyon.

q Elisabeth Brauss plays ‘the full gamut of musical expression’ on piano. Photo: Coffs Harbour Music Society. “It was an easy decision for me - they are both brilliant and an extremely dynamic duo,” Ms Lyon said. She began by watching the artists’ online performances, analysing their gestures and Ms Wildschut’s energetic body language. She imagined creating music that would also allow Ms Brauss to convey the full gamut of musical expression, from delicate to thunderous. Ms Lyon’s interpretation of the performers, at a distance, was an intentional tool in forging Forces of Nature in which she paints a picture of nature’s wildest forces - fire and ice.

Wildschut & Brauss

Concertgoers will hear “ice sheets, the reflecting sunlight on the freezing water, and cracking ice; the bubbling of an underwater volcano in its early stages; the searing heat of a fiery volcano, with leaping lava...". ‘Epic landscapes’ such as this usually are heard in large orchestral works, overtures and symphonies, but Ms Lyon has realised visions of the natural world using just two instruments. “When given to a talented performer, a single note can hold a whole auditorium,” Lyon said. “I know what Noa and Elisabeth make of this piece will be wonderful.” Tickets are $60 or $15 for students and are available from www. coffsmusicsociety.com.au, by phoning 0466 985 652, or at the door. The pre-concert talk at 6 pm is free and there will be a cash bar and nibbles before the concert.

Court considers promise made to worker ROBERT has lived and worked on a vegetable farm for 40 years. Robert had an agreement with the owner which allowed him to grow crops and maintain the property in return for a share of the profits. He was also given the right to reside in a cottage on the property. During the course of Robert’s occupation of the property, the owner made several promises to him to the effect that the farm would pass to Robert upon the owner’s death. Many years later, the owner passes-away but under his will, he leaves the farm to his daughter, Alice. Robert commences action in the Supreme Court. He seeks orders that the farm be transferred to him on the basis of the owner’s promises, under a remedy known as “estoppel by encouragement”. Robert says that in reliance upon the promises, he continued to work on the farm and did not make any attempt to build a superannuation fund or consider how he might acquire a home of his own. The Court rules that in the circumstances, Robert only stayed at the farm because of a “reliance” on the promises and that it was reasonable for Robert to expect the promises to be fulfilled. The Court states that Robert would have ceased farming the property and pursued a more lucrative occupation if he had not relied on the promises and that Robert had therefore sufficiently established that he had suffered “detriment”. Finally, the Court finds that it was “unconscionable” for the promises to go unfulfilled and made orders that Robert was entitled to become the registered proprietor of the farm. Alice appealed the decision and the Court of Appeal, who again found in Robert’s favour. This case demonstrates that whilst verbal promises can be upheld in a court of law, it is important to reduce agreements to writing with a view to avoiding the costs and uncertainties associated with court action.

DEAR Jasminda,

We all lost DEAR News Of The Area,

I WOULD like to acknowledge the Gumbaynggirr peoples who have been part of this beautiful land for many thousands of years. I would like to thank the Gumbaynggirr people for sharing their land and its natural treasures with us. I would like to acknowledge the hurt that has gone on for over 235 years and the recent events that have caused more pain. It has been a tough nine months and a lot has happened and I don’t think it is a matter of whether you are Aboriginal, nonAboriginal, voted yes, no or abstained. We all lost. Not from the well-intended referendum

or its question which was done with a spirit of good will towards Aboriginal peoples. But, what we learnt about our country. Uncle Micklo gave some advice by saying "We need to come together and move forward". I am not sure how to do that, yet, and I hope it is alright to share some sentiments with local songwriter Kym Pitman and say I also believe that every drop in the ocean makes a difference, every stroke of a brush on a painting makes a difference, the first cry of a newborn baby makes a difference, and every hand extended in friendship makes a difference. We all can make a difference. I look forward to walking together as one with Aboriginal peoples. Regards, Colin HUTTON, Thora.

Congratulations on plover protection DEAR News Of The Area,

I’D like to congratulate City of Coffs Harbour on its attention to the needs of a nesting plover. I saw the little roped-off area with a plover sitting on the ground in the middle, on the western side of Jordan Esplanade near the roundabout with Marina Drive. I’d like to thank Council for being so thoughtful in protecting the plovers, and

protecting the public from angry plovers if their nest is disturbed. Nesting for plovers is generally in spring or anytime conditions are right. Temporary cordons are much appreciated. Regards, Lorraine WOODBRIDGE, Jetty Dunecare volunteer.

Vale: Don Clinch OAM By Tom STRICKLAND OAM

CITIZENS of our northern beaches have reason to pause in respect for the passing of a local legend. Don Clinch established his pharmacy in Woolgoolga 72 years ago, a service that struggled in a small community. Although economic reality presented a new career in real estate, Don was still concerned for the health and welfare of his community friends as recently as last year. Born in the Manning Valley, Don knew the hardships of the Great Depression and World War Two, which awoke a strong humanitarian awareness in him.

He believed families prospered in the security of owning their homes. Beyond many of his sales, Don contributed endless acts of kindness, drawing plans, advising – and even facilitating construction. Don loved his community and made every effort to serve wherever needed. He was a visionary who rolled up his sleeves for progress. Contributions and achievements by others were acknowledged and appreciated, often commented on as “some kind of a genius”. Culture was a passion for Don, who supported many cultural groups.

EARLIER this year we contacted a local recruitment agency seeking a maths tutor for our son. They sent us three resumes and we made our decision based on the one with the most experience. When we met the tutor, it quickly became apparent that she wasn't just a maths wiz, but also model material. My son has been tutored for the past nine months and his maths results haven't improved, in fact he is now barely passing. Despite this, he is adamant she is the right tutor for his HSC year. We don't think so. Ken and Marion B. Dear Ken and Marion, Having worked in recruitment, I know all the rules. I also know all the unwritten rules. Often, despite a candidate looking great on paper, they are not the appropriate selection or the right 'fit' for the organisation. When we hired staff for our company, we were mainly concerned about whether or not they would be open to playing pool on a Friday afternoon (which may or may not have regressed into some very bad karaoke). Experience in job-specific software, reverse marketing and outstanding communication skills came further down the list. I feel as though your son is getting a lot out of his tutor, but very little of it relates to trigonometry, linear relationships, single variable data analysis, or probability (though there is a high probability of him flunking maths if you continue with this arrangement). You need a tutor who looks like Mrs Doubtfire, sounds like Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Full Metal Jacket and who has the maths skills of Eddie Woo. If you are paying for his tutoring sessions, you get to choose. Next time, ask the recruitment agency if you can meet their top three picks before making your final decision. Your son may thank you one day (but there is a high probability he won't). Carpe diem, Jasminda.

he contributed regularly to the Sydney Morning Herald and letters on community issues. Don’s accomplishments include being the founder of the Woolgoolga Heritage Walk, the Woolgoolga Arts and Crafts Gallery and a foundation member of the Woolgoolga Chamber of Commerce. He was chairman of the Woolgoolga Beach and Lake Committee and the Woolgoolga Urban Committee. A man of integrity and compassion, Don Clinch has left his mark for the benefit of the community he loved so well.

Times gone by go

By Karen FILEWOOD BONVILLE was the destination for John Burgess, his wife Agnes and their eight children when they moved from the south coast. In 1903 he had bought neighbouring portions 13 and 46, of 100 and 98 acres respectively, portion 46 wrapping

Biblical Bequests around the eastern and southern border of portion 13, with Bonville Creek forming their northern boundary. The family ran the local post office along with their farm and soon became involved in local community groups, officially taking ownership of their land in December 1908. John finished a new residence in late August 1908, then fourteen months later donated all of portion 46 to the Anglican church, the transfer being finalised in January 1911. To build a new church fundraising began, which included flower shows, dances, costume parties and jumble stalls.

Significant trees DEAR News Of The Area,

I’M wondering how many residents know that Coffs Harbour has a Significant Tree Register. And even if they are aware of it, whether they have ever been able to find the list of trees on the council website.

COFFS COAST News Of The Area

If you Google “coffs significant trees” you will be taken to a council webpage that advises you to click through to the “online mapping tool”, and then to use the “identify tool” to find a specific tree. I have not been able to find any trees using this method. I think it should be easier to locate

Meetings were held to arrange construction and in July 1914 John cleared scrub and undergrowth near the church site for the laying and blessing of the foundation stone on 26 August 1914. Complete with the Coffs Harbour choir in a white-robed procession with the clergy, the block was laid and church title revealed as the Church of the Holy Faith, followed by a sermon by the Venerable Archdeacon Seymour and a supper in the Bonville Hall. Tenders were called for the church’s construction in mid-1915, however WW1 halted progress. Tenders were again called in 1921, however the successful

Such an easily accessible register would complement the ecotourism credentials of Coffs Harbour, and would be a very simple measure to implement. When such information is not easily

The irony of local politics DEAR News Of The Area,

ADAM Fuller’s divisive and personal attack on Councilor Judge in his letter to NOTA (3/11/23) is a sad example of why we need an active and informed Government department calling the shots on water harvesting rights. Not to mention the legacy of noncompliance our region is now famous for. Councilor Judge called out the cheap political beat-up on the current water minister over the reversion to the previous

ten percent water harvesting rights by North Coast Nationals which ignored some relevant facts. While the minister might have made the announcement; it was on advice from a Department with significant scientific credibility. Water harvest limits protect all land users as well as our urban and natural environment from excessive uptake. They also promote efficiencies in water use otherwise not achieved. The recent two year 30 percent

trial period apparently saw very few applicants, and resulted in no more than twelve licensed recipients. Given this and the future dry outlook, some might say the revision was prudent. In early 2021, DPIE offered our community the opportunity to understand and comment on the then latest Draft Regional Water Strategy. The Coffs Harbour Conference was attended by only three persons. There was a staff member from a local blueberry grower, another from Council’s

tenderer, Mr W Jacobs withdrew for health concerns. After a four-month delay Messrs Patterson and Mathie’s tender was accepted and work began in May 1922. There was seating for 80 people, featuring a Sanctuary with splayed ends and gothic windows with cathedral glass. Expected to open by mid-May, fundraising continued to furnish the church. The first wedding in the church was between Miss Susie Williams of Bonville and Mr James Kelsall of Coffs Harbour and in accordance with church tradition, were presented with a family bible at the conclusion of the service, which was held on 11 November 1923.

water services department, and one interested community member. As I read it, Councilor Judge’s simple point was that our local water issues are more important than opportunist politicking. I think he nailed it. If anyone wants to know the current water rules and reasons behind them, the DPIE has an excellent website offering significant opportunities for informed engagement. Regards, Dave WOOD, Boambee East.

Roundabout eyesores on Hogbin Drive DEAR News Of The Area,

WHEN I first came to live in Park Beach five years ago, the drive along Hogbin Drive always lifted my spirits… such colourful roundabouts, always so

beautifully maintained. I understand the need to change to plants that require less water and when well maintained they still look attractive. But why have the three roundabouts along Hogbin Drive North been abandoned

to weeds and dying plants. This is a tourist strip and first impressions are important. Even native plants and succulents need watering until they are established. Such a waste of money to see them

In support of multi-use forests DEAR News Of The Area,

I READ that Premier Minns, Minister Sharpe and Minister Moriarty visited Bongil Bongil National Park to announce the process for the establishment of the proposed Great Koala National Park and that Minister Sharpe pulled out of a planned meeting “because a group of people, including Knitting Nannas with protest signs, and media, were waiting at the entrance to the Community Village” (NOTA 10/10/2023). Well, I’m a nana and I knit rather badly, and I would like to voice my support for our multiple-use native forests and timber industry, based on observations over the past fifty years. In this age of renewables, the ultimate renewable is wood from trees! All it needs is sun, soil, water, professional management and a viable sawmilling industry. Managed forests provide timber flooring, house frames, furniture, veneers, electric light poles, wharf timbers, paper etc. whilst at the same time sequestering carbon from the

Friday, 17 November 2023

atmosphere. This carbon is stored in wooden products for their lifetime. In a time where carbon emissions are considered so critical, doesn’t it make sense to grow trees and store as much carbon as possible in a range of timber products. Managed forests also offer naturebased recreation, tourism and sporting opportunities including car rallies and fossicking. They provide habitat for native fauna, including koalas, which have co-existed in multiple-use, native forests for well over a century. DPI Principal Research Scientist, Dr Brad Law, states, “While habitat clearing, cars and roads, dogs, disease and fire are demonstrated, well-known threats to the koala, this research indicates that timber harvesting as practised under the comprehensive rulesets applying in the native forests of north-east NSW, is not.” (‘Koala Update’ Australian Rural and Regional News 14/11/2022). There are protests if a small area of

forest is logged and the emotional pull of koalas is exploited in the ‘No tree, no me!’ mantra. Surely people realise that a logged section of forest grows back from natural regeneration and/or planting, and that koalas flourish on the young shoots from new growth. Only one percent of ever-diminishing, managed forests in NSW is harvested each year, under very restricted conditions. “There are 20 million hectares of forested land in NSW. Around seven million hectares is designated as National Park and two million hectares is State Forest” (Louise Faulkner, Coffs Coast Focus July 2023). The addition of around 175,000 hectares in the Great Koala National Park will add to the already sizeable NP estate whilst removing productive timber supply areas. Surely the balance between conservation reserves and multiple-use forests in NSW has long been reached. The Greens are pushing the NSW Labor state government to end native

forest logging, which in turn, will impact the timber industry, one that provides many direct and indirect jobs. It’s a shame that NSW Labor needs to shore up the preferences of innercity Greens at the expense of regional industries and communities like ours. Managed, multiple-use native forests provide a broad range of benefits to the people of NSW and our Coffs region, especially in relation to the ongoing supply of timber products and regional based employment. Kind regards, Ann THOMPSON, Coffs Harbour.

Coffs Harbour Suns women remain undefeated By Aiden BURGESS

COFFS Harbour Suns women have continued their winning ways during the latest round of the Sunshine Basketball Conference representative

season. The Suns women remain unbeaten this season, after a 73-57 win against the Ballina Breakers in Ballina. The Suns women sit at the top of the ladder with just one

game to go before this season’s finals series. The Suns men were defeated by the Ballina Breakers and Bellinger Valley Braves White last weekend. The Suns men sit one game out of the top four with two games to go before finals. The Bellinger Valley Braves White sit undefeated at

the top of the ladder with 10 wins. Coffs Harbour Basketball Association gave a recap of the Suns games on their social media page. “Our Sunshine Senior Teams travelled to Ballina and Macksville over the weekend. “The women's team was low on numbers for the second

week in a row, and after a close contest in the first half they dug deep and came away with the win to remain in top position on the ladder. “The men's team had a tough double header, with nearly exact score lines against the Breakers and Braves White. “Low on playing numbers

Adam Hudson top scored on 30 not out, with David Schutt the best of the Sawtell bowlers taking 2-15. Sawtell successfully chased down the total in the 18th over finishing at 4/119. James Arnold top scored

with 38, and Matt Nolan took 2-11 for Adams Family. Coffs Colts were also winners in Round 3, having a seven-wicket victory against the Northern Districts Rebels at Woolgoolga. The Rebels opened the batting and were bowled out for 69, thanks largely to a sensational spell from Jojy Abraham who took 4-10 from

his 4 overs. Zac Creenaune also bowled well taking 3-12 from his 3.2 overs. The Colts reached the total after 12 overs finishing at 3/70. Zac Creenaune top scored with 36, and Clay WattersCampbell finished on 23 not out. Valleys Cricket were

Sawtell, Coffs Colts, and Valleys Cricket have wins in T20 Cup

By Aiden BURGESS

SAWTELL, Coffs Colts, and Valleys Cricket have all been victorious during the latest round of Coffs Harbour District Cricket Association’s T20 Cup.

Sawtell won their second straight T20 Cup match with a six-wicket win against Adams Family at Richardson Park. Adams Family won the toss and elected to bat, scoring 6/116 from their 20 overs.

also victorious in Round 3, beating Diggers Cricket Club by 7 runs at Fitzroy Oval. Valleys Cricket opened the batting and scored 6/177 from 20 overs, with Alec Baldwin top scoring with 49 and Josh Bartlett scoring 37. Diggers finished at 5/170 off 20 overs, as Reuben Carey scored 42.

Northern Districts shine in T20 Cup opener

q Northern Districts celebrating their round two victory in the T20 Cup.

By David WIGLEY NORTHERN Districts secured an impressive victory in the 2023/2024 T20 Cup on the weekend, overpowering Diggers Cricket Club at the Wiigulga Sports Complex in round two of the competition. This marked their debut match under the floodlights at Wiigulga Sports Complex, and Northern Beaches shone brightly led by Captain Aaron Bhangu who won the toss and chose to bat. Northern Districts amassed an impressive 157 runs for 9 wickets after 20 overs. The charge was spearheaded by Prabraj Sidhu, who contributed significantly with 54 runs off 39 balls, continuing his exceptional form with the bat. Diggers responded with determination, with Kieran Cunningham's defiant 37 runs from 32 balls hinting at a possible comeback.

However, the match's dynamics took a pivotal turn when Cunningham was run-out for 37 runs. Club legend Aaron Bhangu stood out with his exceptional bowling performance, claiming four

wickets for a miserly 10 runs. In doing so, Bhangu reached the pivotal milestone of 100 wickets for the club, at an average of 8.93 runs. Gopi Hayer's solid

bowling efforts also played a crucial role, as he bagged three wickets for a mere 16 runs from 3.4 overs, effectively keeping the Diggers at bay. Captain Aaron Bhangu attributed the victory to

his team’s exceptional fielding efforts, stating, “Our fielding pressure was intense with only a few chances going. “We batted well with good partnerships forming which accelerated towards

the end of the innings. “We have a good balance of youth and experienced players with a mix of players from all grades looking forward to a great season.”

THERE’S no place like Coffs Harbour according to the NRL’s Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks, with the team’s return to the C.ex Coffs International Stadium locked in for a fourth consecutive season. Monday’s NRL draw announcement confirmed Coffs Harbour will host a

showdown between the Sharks and the Titans in round 18 of the 2024 NRL Premiership. The action will kick off at 6pm on Friday 5 July 2024 at C.ex Coffs International Stadium. “It’s great to see the Sharks yet again hosting a home game here at our

state-of-the-art C.ex Coffs International Stadium,” said City of Coffs Harbour Mayor, Cr Paul Amos. “It shows the City has made itself a go-to regional destination for top sporting fixtures. “We can credit this to the wonderful facilities at the stadium, and to everyone

involved with bringing together these events.” Bumper crowds have turned out to NRL games held in Coffs Harbour in previous years, creating a great atmosphere for Sharks players, members, fans and sports enthusiasts alike. “The Sharks are very much looking forward to

again making Coffs Harbour our home away from home and building on the success of the previous three years by playing a home game in the region,” Sharks CEO Dino Mezzatesta said. “While we hope to make it four wins from as many visits, our taking a game to Coffs for a fourth consecutive

season isn’t all about match day, it’s a chance to engage with the community. “We have experienced great local support, our fans embrace the opportunity to travel to the region and we know that connection with the Coffs Coast community will continue to grow into 2024.”

Coffs junior cricket teams get ready for Inter-District grand finals COFFS Harbour District Cricket Association’s Under 16s and Under 14s representative teams are set to play their grand finals of the North Coast Cricket Council’s Inter-District competitions this weekend.

Coffs Harbour’s Under 16s side take on Valleys Cricket at Phillip Hughes Oval, while the Coffs Harbour Under 14s team play Clarence River at Fitzroy Oval. The Coffs Harbour junior representative teams qualified for their

respective grand finals after victories in Round 3 of the Inter-District competition. Coffs Harbour’s Under 16s side had a seven-wicket win against Lower Clarence Cricket Association at the Coffs Coast Sport and Leisure Park. Lower Clarence opened

the batting and were bowled out for 161 in the 41st over. Maison Simmons top scored with 84, while Jake Creenaune was the best of the Coffs bowlers taking 3-21 from 8.4 overs. Leo Tarlinton also took three wickets with a spell of

3-46 from 10 overs. Coffs Harbour had a successful run chase finishing at 3/162 in the 31st over. Daniel Craig top scored with a captain’s knock of 61, and Cooper Pearce finished on 46 not out. Coffs Harbour’s Under 14s team had a dominant 162-run win against Lower Clarence in Coffs Harbour.

EARLIER this year, Coffs Harbour and Districts Sporting Car Club members began work on hosting a rally event as part of the Coffs Coast Festival of Motor Sport. This idea has turned into the Quality Accounting Coffs Coast 100 Rally that is planned to occur on Saturday 25 November, and the Flooded Gum Shootout Sprint

on Sunday 26 November. The events will be run by local car and rally enthusiasts, with experts from elsewhere helping as needed. The Quality Accounting Rally and the Flooded Gum Sprint will have a different feel to the events of the last decade. While there will be a

number of modern rally cars competing, there is likely to be a larger portion of the field in different cars from years gone by. The Coffs Coast has a long history of forest rallies, with car rallying in its current format becoming popular in the 1970s. Old timers tell stories of the region being included

in the Southern Cross Rally series that was run in the seventies. This was a speed and endurance event on special “competitive stages” closed to other road users. Each year the event involved a number of different areas of NSW. In these events some of the longer competitive

stages, on forestry and council roads, could be up to 100 kilometres or more in length. Since those Southern Cross years there have been many rally events held on the Coffs Coast, from local club events and Group 6 events to rounds of the NSW, Australian and World Championships.

STORY STARTS on BACK COVER, Page 48

Coast players will be part of a massive Australian contingent of 30 teams who will take to the field in South Africa and New Zealand. Dean Herbert will be making his Australian debut, and explained what it meant to be selected to represent his country. “Being selected to play for your country is something special, and at a World Cup is even more special,” he said. “It's a pretty big deal to be selected, and all of us local players who have been selected have been playing hockey all our life and are excited to represent our

country. “Hockey Coffs Coast is proud of all of us.” The Hockey Coffs Coast president explained how Hockey Coffs Coast players were selected to their national sides. “Teams got selected at the Hockey Australia Men's and Women's Masters Championships, which were in Perth this year, and you have to nominate for selection beforehand,” he said. “We had selectors watching those who nominated playing in Perth.”

The Northern Districts Rebels were also winners in Round 5, beating Diggers Cricket Club by 9 wickets at Woolgoolga. Diggers won the toss and elected to bat, and were duly bowled out for 81. Rebels captain Anu Grewal was the chief destroyer with a sensational spell of 5-15 from 7 overs. Hamish Rissel led home the successful chase for the Rebels finishing on 38 not

out. The first-grade season continues this weekend with Round 6 matches in Coffs Harbour, Sawtell, and Macksville. Nana Glen Lizards look for their first win of the season when they take on the Northern Districts Rebels at Fitzroy Oval. Diggers Cricket Club also look for their first win of the season when they play Sawtell at Richardson Park. Round 6 also sees Valleys Cricket host Coffs Colts at Phillip Hughes Oval.

the Seaside Classic was a good way to prepare for the upcoming representative season in 2024. “It’s a great pre-season event which gives our rep teams a chance to have a hit out before the season,” he said. “And it's the first time most have played together as a group.”

SBS, 9.20pm

Social media star and comedian Celeste Barber ﬁts this three-part sartorial series like a glove. The Wellmania star is a beguilingly forthright yet fun presenter in this playful, personal and insightful dip into the evolution of Australian fashion and how our clothes have consciously and subconsciously shaped our national psyche. Tonight’s premiere examines the evolution of fashion media, with upcoming instalments focusing on fashion pioneers and how our thriving fashion sector has been curiously overlooked. It’s written, directed and produced by Nel Minchin (Matilda and Me, Folau) and features interviews with Collette Dinnigan, Catherine Martin and Akira Isogawa.

Creator Noah Hawley returns to the moody, sub-zero climes of Minnesota for another snow-covered crime caper in this fifth season of his quirky black comedy crime anthology. Last season’s race-themed story about two warring mob families in 1950s Kansas City ambitiously departed from its trademark oddball script; this 10-parter goes back to its character-filled basics with comic flair. Set in 2019, housewife Dorothy “Dot” Lyon (Juno Temple, Ted Lasso) is in trouble with the authorities when her old life comes back to haunt her. Also starring Jon Hamm (Mad Men), Jennifer Jason Leigh, Lamorne Morris (New Girl) and Joe Keery (Stranger Things), it all unfolds with enthralling weirdness.

THE WAY WE WORE

FRIDAY

MINISERIES: THE THIEF, HIS WIFE AND THE CANOE

SEVEN, 8.30pm

You’ll scratch your head in spellbound disbelief, laugh and perhaps have an anxious knot form in your stomach through this darkly comic four-part caper. Eddie Marsan (Ray Donovan) and an unrecognisable Monica Dolan deliver superb performances that hit home, but perhaps the most intoxicating element of this riveting miniseries is the fact it’s ﬁrmly based on a wild, but true, story. True crime is elevated with tragicomic wit in this crazy chronicle of a harebrained insurance scam. Premiering tonight with a movielength double episode.

FOR a sporting association to have one player chosen for national duties is a wonderful achievement But to have ten players chosen to represent their country is simply phenomenal. Ten Hockey Coffs Coast players have been selected to represent Australia at the 2024 Masters World Cups in South Africa and New Zealand. The Over 35s and Over 40s Australian players will travel to play in Cape Town, while the Over 45+ age groups will play in Auckland next year. Hockey Coffs Coast players selected to their respective Australian teams
