LOCAL RSL representatives joined students at ANZAC Commemorative assemblies last week to honour the memory of Australia’s fallen soldiers. Bulahdelah Central School Captain Maddison Boyd said it was a special opportunity to acknowledge the Anzac spirit. “I was very proud to lead the school community in this special remembrance ceremony,” she said. “It was about coming together to reflect on the significance of ANZAC Day and honour all those who have served.” At Tea Gardens Public School, RSL members Jenny Ross-Henry, Bob McMaster and Ray Prigg q Tea Gardens RSL sub-branch members Jenny Ross-Henry, Bob McMaster and Ray Prigg with student Izabella Pollock, Simone Miller and Gethyn Bryant.

Graduates day to shine Years of academic commitment have come to an end for a group of Myall Coast young adults who recently graduated from the University of Newcastle.
By John SAHYOUN
YEARS of academic commitment have come to an end for a group of Myall Coast young adults who recently graduated from the University of Newcastle. Donning academic gowns and mortarboards for the formal occasion, the graduates were all smiles as they celebrated the milestone achievement in their educational journeys. Mitchell Blanch, who proudly collected a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering with Class II Division 1 Honours, said all the hard work had paid off. “After five long years I can finally say I’m an engineer,” he said. “I am now working in project management, maintaining power stations and chemical plants throughout Australia.” Completing their degrees through the Faculty of Education and Arts, Hayley Follett and Casey Gooch were each awarded a Bachelor of Teaching in Early Childhood and Primary with Honours.
Brittany Dorney, who collected a Bachelor of Business, and Daniel Sahyoun who received his Bachelor of Communication with Distinction, were also amongst the university’s newest graduates. With one degree now under their belts, Brittany and Daniel are both continuing with their

If you have resigned, in certain circumstances it is possible that you may have unfair dismissal remedies available to you. A resignation is not legally effective if expressed “in the heat of the moment” or when an employee is in a state of emotional stress or mental confusion such that they could not reasonably be understood to be conveying a real intention to resign. If an employer accepts a resignation made “in the heat of the moment” the resignation may be characterised as termination of employment at the initiative of the employer and could result in the employee having unfair dismissal rights, allowing the employee to be reinstated or compensated. If a resignation is made “in the heat of the moment”,
the employer should clarify or confirm with the employee after a reasonable time that the employee genuinely intended to resign.
Further, a resignation that is forced by conduct of the employer will also be considered a dismissal. In deciding whether an employer has forced a resignation, the Court will consider whether the employer engaged in conduct with the intention of bringing the employment to an end or whether termination of the employment was the result of the employer’s conduct such that the employee had no effective or real choice but to resign. Again, in these circumstances, the employee may have unfair dismissal remedies available and may be able to seek an order for reinstatement or compensation.

Blue Light Shines By Daniel SAHYOUN BULAHDELAH School of Arts Hall was rocking with dozens of excited children who danced the night away at the Blue Light Disco last week. Flashing lights and glow sticks lit up the faces of the youngsters during the funfilled event, illuminating a mass of beaming smiles. As non-stop music including blaring renditions of the Macarena and Katy Perry’s popular hits roared around the hall, the energetic
crowd bopped along on the dancefloor in almost perfect formation. The event was organised and funded by the Bulahdelah Blue Light Committee, with plenty of volunteers on hand to ensure the children enjoyed the night. Committee member Senior Constable Ash Ray said the “kids had a ball”. “We are very happy with the turnout and the great atmosphere that was created by the community,” he said. “It is fantastic that

people of all ages are doing something for the kids and come and support these nights.” If the success of the disco is anything to go by, the Community Fun Day to be held on Saturday 28 April is sure to be a treat. Competitions, displays and a host of interactive activities suitable for all ages are bound to delight. Ash said although the day will be a Blue Light organised activity, “it is a community event where everyone gets involved”. The Community Day will run from 1-4pm in Wade Park.

OPINION
Dear News Of The Area, ONCE again our Raft Race held on Easter Sunday was a great success. The setting and weather couldn’t have been better with some very innovative floating contraptions. All were cheered on by family and friends. The children then had their handicapped Easter Egg Hunt, with more than enough chocolate eggs. Our raffle was drawn by Sandy Snape and the winners were. Terri-Anne Howard, Cooloon St. Hawks Nest; (Leather Bag); Marnie Corr of Pindimar Road, Pindimar, took the knitted throw and Mark Hill of Cunningham Street, Pindimar took the
leather painting. On a disappointing note it was discovered that a person, or persons unknown, went to our Rural Fire Service shed and dismantled the water pipework leading from the two water tanks. This happened around the Tuesday after Easter so if you saw anyone entering or leaving the premises without it being a fire call, please let us know. Betty Economos, Secretary, PBCA. Pindimar-Bundabah Community Association.
Sun Shines on Grey Fest By Margie TIERNEY ORGANISERS of the inaugural GreyFest are taking a well-earned rest after a staging a weekend with something for everyone. “Many people enjoyed the Grey Nomads Golf, the evening with local historian, Jan Winn and John “Stinker” Clarke,“ Lorraine Lock said. “The Stalls and musical entertainment together with Bob the Bush Poet at both Hawks Nest and Tea Gardens also proved popular.” GreyFest, following on from the Grey and Thespian Mardi Gras, incorporated some of the most popular events from the past two years and added some new highlights through Seniors Week. “The Bush Dinner Dance at the Hawks
Mrs JL, Tea Gardens Dear Mrs JL, YOU know, years ago, my boss made all the staff attend yoga for team building. The problem was, we didn’t want to team build as we’d been stuck in an office all week. We wanted to drink and talk about each other, like normal workmates. It was doomed from the start. Now, when I think of a meditation session, I think of a guru named Sven (dressed in white) saying something about the light radiating through my body. There’s some bergamot oil in a diffuser and some whale music and basically all I need to do is curl up in a foetal position while Sven whispers sweet nothings about chakras aligning. It involves no concentration, no anger, and no guttural sounds, because meditation is supposed to be calming. After a meditation session, you should feel as though you’ve had a massage and six mojitos. Your experience doesn’t sound relaxing at all. How can you be relaxed when you are facing complete strangers and making weird noises? Are you sure you went to the right room? Imagine if your meditation session was actually down the hall, and instead you accidentally entered the Advanced Anger Management class. Did the other people look angry? Were some of them wearing home detention bracelets instead of Lava Rock bracelets? I think you need to contact the program organiser and double check the details. If it was a meditation session, then perhaps you will start to feel that anger bubbling to the surface, and you will be primed for the next instalment.

Pigs Fly in Tea Gardens By Margie TIERNEY DID the pigs fly? Well not quite, but they certainly ran like little rabbits at the second annual Pig Races at the Tea Gardens Country Club last Saturday. Last year it rained cats and dogs, but this year the sun shone down on the event and hundreds turned out for the family fun day. There were six pig races, each one sponsored by a local business. Race One was the Datrys Hogwash Hurdle, Race Two, the Porkers Handicap
q
sponsored by Partnership Finance Group, Rod Morrison Gyprock sponsored Race Three, the Squealer’s Handicap, Race Four, Jeff’s Quality Meats was behind the Pickled Pork Plate, Race Five, B & K Landscaping and the Snouts in the Trough Slipper and Race 6 sponsored by Stuart Sinclair from Ray White behind the Tea Gardens Hawks Nest Cup. There was so much enthusiasm on and off the track you could have been forgiven you were at a Randwick Race meet with Winx as the lure.
FACE PAINTING: 4 year old Zoe McCullaugh.
q TEA GARDENS COUNTRY CLUB: Pigs draw big crowd. But the big winners were the local community groups, the Hawks Junior Rugby League Club and the Tea Gardens Hawks Nest Surf Club. “Last year we raised $3,000 for the Surf Club, this year we’re hoping to top that,” Club Manager, Warren Gooley told News Of The Area. And top that they did, the day raising $7,000 for the Surf Club. “We’ve expanded the day this year, to include mechanical bull riding, exotic confectionary, face painting and live music,” Warren said. In With such a great turnout this year, you’d be a good chance to bet on the Pig Races being back to fly again in Tea Gardens next year.
Trail of Autumn Treats THE Great Lakes Food Trail returns on Sunday 22 April to showcase the region’s sensational autumn produce. Buffalo ice-cream, wood-fired artisan breads, succulent pork and crisp local wines are some of the tasty offerings available along the route. This season’s event coincides with World Earth Day which focuses on eliminating single-use plastics and reducing pollution, values embraced by members of the trail. Bungwahl Public School, who joined the trail last season, will be putting the Earth Day principles into practice by
running workshops to teach participants how to create reusable cling wraps from beeswax. Visitors will also be able to tour the schools award winning bush tucker and permaculture gardens and purchase treats made from the produce. Tianjara Eco House, Old Inn Road Vineyard, Topi Open Range, Wootton’s Brush Turkey Café, Billabong Cottage and Great Lakes Paddocks are also amongst the local producers who will be opening their gates to public. Coordinator Julie Steepe from Bulahdelah’s Lucy Land Merino Farm said the trail
emphasises the ethical and chemical free approach utilised by a network of local producers. “It is about like-minded, ethical producers who are working together to showcase this great region and everything it has to offer,” she said. “We have a huge variety of great ethical food, and just like the diversity of our landscape, our produce is just as diverse.” The Food Trail is a selfdrive tour of the region’s farms, gardens, wineries and cafes with more than a dozen stops along the route stretching from Bulahdelah to Forster.

Marriah Band at the Tea Gardens Hotel By Rachael VAUGHAN
THE owners of the Tea Gardens Hotel, Ben and Emily Hanson, have already made a good impression on the community in Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest, after only a year of owning the Hotel, and making some great changes. This weekend, if you’ve never been to Tea Gardens, this is the weekend to plan a trip up North to try it out. Friday night there is a kids disco at the Hotel, with
party food, fun games and tunes for the kids to have a ball while the adults kick back in the restaurant and bar and enjoy a meal. Tea Gardens Hotel are becoming well known for their top quality, fresh cooked foods. You can enjoy a variety of meals, from their fish cones and great steaks, to pizzas and gourmet pies. On saturday night, come along and enjoy ‘Marriah Band’ as they cover all the classics.
Marriah’s high energy riff driven rock echoes influences from Janis Joplin, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Cold Chisel, Divinyls and the Gunner’s, plus many more favourites from the 70’s and 80’s as the foundation of their repertoire. Annie Cee, lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist from Marriah Band, said, “Possessing an extensive and varied rock pedigree, we came together four years ago and have been gigging
country/city and up and down the coast ever since.” “We deliver a high energy packed show, and will have you rockin’ out with our infectious sounds for a night
to remember.” Marriah Band is Annie Cee on lead vocalist and rhythm guitar, Scott Grice on lead guitar and back up vocals, Paul Job on drums
and percussion, and Wayne McCrae on bass guitar, vocals and on stage sound. Marriah have a diverse repertoire that is guaranteed to make for a great night out.

Major Pairs Championship Tea Gardens Men’s Bowling Club By The JAFFA
7 APRIL: Because of work commitments by some players, the final of the Club Major Pairs Championship was played today on an immaculately prepared grass green. The team of Peter Gurney and John Parkinson were taking on the former champions, Richard Lee and Sean Mearrick. The Mearrick team were quick out of the blocks and by the 4th end held a handy 8-0 lead. By this time, most of the pundits were shaking their heads and thinking, “here we go again”. Big mistake! The Parkinson pair
MYALL COAST
also thought otherwise and emphatically won the next five ends to draw level. The game was there for the taking with both teams neck and neck to the 19th. A “2” at the penultimate end to Peter and John gave them a handy 3 shot lead going into the last. They eventually ran out the winners, by taking the last end. The final score Peter and John 17, Richard and Sean 13. A great game of bowls! Congratulations to the 2018 Club Championship Pairs, Peter Gurney and John Parkinson. 11 April Today we had 42 bowlers, including visitors from Wamberal, Earlwood and Bulahdelah, enjoying our great autumn weather and
our Tea Gardens hospitality. Three teams went through undefeated; Keith Smith’ team on 53 points, Brian Emmett’s team on 54 and the winners on 55 points Henry Dallas, Ron James and Daryl Martin. The Myall Restaurant and Bistro winner was Keith Smith. A big thank you to Jason from the restaurant for their continued support! 13 April The continuing warm weather and the start of the school holidays possibly deterred some players from competing in the usual Friday Open Pairs competition. For those that played, it was a beautiful day enjoyed by all. Bragging rights went to Bill Moon and Peter Cheney who notched-up a great win
with 32 Points. As Sunday Bowls is in recess for the time being, those players who normally play on a Sunday are more than welcome to avail themselves of playing in the Friday Open Pairs competition. In other news; Saturday Pennant information day will be held on Saturday 21 April. This is an important day for all Pennant players who have indicated their ability to play. It will commence at 10.00 am. The day will start with information and questions; the games programme and bowls stickers distributed.
