Big Donation to Community Transport

By Margie TIERNEY THEY’RE not high profile when it comes to their office which is tucked away in the industrial area of Tea Gardens, but the service provided by the Manning Valley and Area Community Transport is vital to hundreds of locals in the Myall region. Recently, members of the Myall Community Arts and Crafts Centre handed over a cheque for $1,000 to Community Transport, proceeds of their raffle run in conjunction with their January Arts and Craft Show. ‘’The raffle prize was a beautiful painting donated by artist Joan Richards,” Janette Coppock said.

TEA GARDENS local historian Janis Winn can now claim the title of prolific writer with the upcoming launch of her fourth book on the history of the Myall region. Entitled ‘Hawks Nest a Bird’s Eye View’, it took Jan years of research to compile the book of almost 300 pages and to collect over 800 photos. “There was a lot involved, a lot of knocking on doors, I’m sure many people got sick of me,” Jan told News Of The Area. “When you start you don’t take ‘no’ for an answer.” “It starts with the AA company which came to Tahlee in 1826.” “They had sheep and a grant for a million acres.” But they found what they were doing with sheep wasn’t suitable so they moved west.

Jan’s memory is remarkable. Her research and discoveries equally so. “There’s a lot of history about Yaccabba and its shipwrecks.” In fact she worked her way through the

streets of Hawks Nest. Jan’s other three books can be found in the NSW State Library and this one will join them. IGA at Hawks Nest was only too happy to sponsor the book.

the earlier years, which are being shared on the school’s Facebook page. “It is heartwarming to see the family generations in the school photographs, confirming our family orientated school community,” she said. Records show 30 pupils, accounting for a third of the total population of the Bulahdelah district, were enrolled at the oneteacher school when it opened in 1868. Today, more than 400 students from Kindergarten to Year 12 fill the classrooms and specialist learning areas under the guidance of dozens of teachers. Although classrooms and teaching methods have changed considerably since the school first opened its doors, Mrs Gilbert said BCS remains an important part of the community. “It is interesting to see how

much our school environment, the teaching and learning and the technology has evolved during this time,” she said. “Most of the blackboards and then whiteboards have now been replaced with interactive screens, rooms are air conditioned and we deliver flexible educational pathways.” A small but dedicated planning team are organising a host of activities to commemorate the anniversary including a street parade, open school, commemorative garden and a celebratory dinner. Mrs Gilbert hopes you will save the date and join the Bulahdelah community to acknowledge this significant milestone in the school’s history. “I am looking forward to the celebrations to reunite with many familiar faces and share our special memories of our time at BCS,” she said.

Poles to Hawks Nest The Polish dance company, Lajkonik is making a welcome return to Hawks Nest.

By Margie TIERNEY

THE Polish dance company, Lajkonik is making a welcome return to Hawks Nest. Lajkonik was last here in 2015 and once again they’ll be performing courtesy of the Myall U3A group. “Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest residents are eagerly awaiting the return of the Lajkonik Dance Ensemble,” Lyn Chaikin said. “Their last performance was dynamic and colourful and full energy.” “It will be a joy to see them again,” Lyn said. Over the past three years Lajkonik has performed at Festivals in Brisbane,

Melbourne and Jindabyne, the Snowy Mountains town holding fond memories for the group. “The Jindabyne Festival was particularly special as it commemorated the 200th year Anniversary of General Tadeusz Kosciuszko’s death,” a spokesman for the group said. “The name of ‘Kosciuszko’ is of course the name given to Australia’s highest mountain by the Polish explorer Sir Paul Edmund Strzelecki in honour of a great man who fought for freedom and human rights for all.” “We come back to Hawks Nest with fond memories of our first concert, and

q especially the warm hospitality of the people of Hawks Nest and Tea gardens, and hope that our

second concert will be enjoyed as much as the first one.” “We also look forward

to teaching you some Polish dancing” Lajkonik will perform at the Hawks Nest Community

Centre on Saturday 17 March. For more details contact Lyn Chaikin on 4997 1148.

Roads works at Stroud almost done MidCoast Council has just completed a $90,000 upgrade

FEDERAL Member for Lyne Dr David Gillespie has inspected nearly $500,000 in road works in Stroud and Clarence Town that have been funded through the Federal Coalition Government’s expanded investment in the Roads to Recovery programme. “Work has just about finished now on the upgrade of both Bridge Street in Stroud and Limeburner’s

Creek Road near Clarence Town, and I’m delighted some of our government’s increased investment in roads is being injected into important projects in the local road network,” Dr Gillespie said. MidCoast Council has just completed a $90,000 upgrade of Bridge Street in Stroud which includes a new 200-metre road pavement

with a bitumen wearing surface and improvements to the drainage. Dungog Shire Council has invested just over $400,000 on rehabilitation, widening and stabilisation of the pavement surface on Limeburner’s Creek Road, east of Duke Street. The 500-metre road upgrade also includes improvements to the road’s drainage. Funding from the Federal Coalition Government’s Roads to Recovery Programme is provided to all local government authorities to assist them maintain and upgrade their local roads.

Skyla on her way to stardom Skyla Conlon has been building on her love of performing, drama and music, and perfecting her skills, from a very young age.

By Rachael VAUGHAN

SKYLA Conlon has been building on her love of performing, drama and music, and perfecting her skills, from a very young age. She has just added a unique experience to the portfolio, being cast in an exhibition piece that will be played indefinitely in the High Court of Australia. The video is an information documentary style short film about the constitution of Australia, and will run on a repeating loop in a purpose built theatre at the high court in Canberra. The theatre and film will open the the public on 9 April and be open to anyone who visits the venue, including

school groups. Skyla attends Hunter School of Performing Arts as a drama students and this is her first professional casting Skyla’s love of acting began with public speaking in her junior primary years, where she realised straight away it was something she loved. Her mother and father thought she might enjoy drama classes, so in year 2 she started at the Young People’s Theatre. Skyla told News Of The Area, “I love everything about drama, simply being on stage performing and the buzz everyone feels before every show, or the sense of accomplishment I feel after every show.”

“THANKS to the support of our community during the period of water restrictions introduced on 1 February, we were able to conserve water supplies during what was a very dry summer,” said Council’s Director Water Services, Brendan Guiney. “The rain that fell this week has significantly increased the flow in our rivers. As a result we’re replenishing the water storages associated with our five water supplies – the Manning (also supplying parts of the Great Lakes),

Gloucester, Bulahdelah, Stroud and Tea Gardens.” MidCoast Water Services constantly monitors weather conditions, river levels and water use and does implement restrictions when required. “While we have only been in water restrictions four times since the year 2000, we greatly appreciate the community’s understanding and participation in water restrictions when they are necessary” added Brendan Guiney. MidCoast Water Services is nearing completion on

This is Skyla’s first paid and on camera role, but she has already performed in quite a few musicals. Skyla said “Some of my favorites so far have been Cinderella and winnie the pooh, which I did with Young People’s Theatre, and Hairspray and Grease with Harvest Rain.” Skyla’s Mother Samantha keeps an eye on jobs that come up, and she will keep auditioning in the hopes of more work like this role. Skyla remarked, “I have 2 auditions coming up this month, my schools musical Little Mermaid and my drama schools production of Pinocchio.” Skyla thoroughly enjoyed her first on camera experience, telling News Of The Area, “I loved having a hair & makeup artist, I also loved my costume and working on set at the NSW Rail Museum.” “I felt very special because the production company paid for all our accommodation and all our food.” “Overall, it was such a great experience, and I cannot wait to do it again,” she said.

a project to improve our region’s water security and reduce reliance on Manning River flows for the main water supply.

Scouts are back in town By Rachael VAUGHAN

LOOK out Hawks Nest, the Scouts are back in town, but they need your help to make it a grand revival. It’s time for a resurgence and the Scouts are calling on you to get involved. There’s already a Scout Hall begging to be used, and youth putting their hand up wanting to be involved, so there’s nothing stopping this fantastic movement in regaining the popularity they once had in our

beautiful area. A public meeting has been called on Tuesday 13 March at 5:30pm in the Hawks Nest Scout Hall on Yamba Street to discuss the options for re-commencing the Scout Group in Hawks Nest. Stan Woodrow, District Commissioner for Manning District Scouts, told News Of The Area, “We’ve got the hall, we’ve got interested youth, we just need volunteers interested in having as much fun as the

kids will.” “Come and meet the District Commissioner and Assistant District Commissioner, who will explain what Scouting has to offer, both youth, and adults, and what’s involved in becoming a leader.” “It’s not just for the kids, Scouting is dynamic and fun.” As a Leader, you will help to provide selfdevelopment to young people through challenging, adventurous, achievementoriented, teamwork and leadership-based experiences. Scouting provides adults with an opportunity to lead and gain satisfaction working with young people and other adults; to make a direct positive impact on your local community and on the lives of young people. Stan speaks highly of the suitability of the area for scouting, telling News Of The Area, “The Tea Gardens/ Hawks Nest location is ideal for Scouting as there is an abundance of suitable facilities.” “Plenty of waterways for kayaking and canoeing, as well as venues that are ideal for hiking, camping and

bushwalking, and there are even caves that are suitable for caving, and great rock walls for abseiling, that are not too far distant.’ “The Myall River is a magic canoe paddle from Bulahdelah down to Mungo Brush, or perhaps building a raft and rafting down the river - already have Scout Groups come up from the Sydney area because of our facilities, yet we don’t utilise them enough ourselves,” he said. “Being located just a short drive to Bulahdelah where we have a very tidy

It teaches social and leadership skills through challenge and outdoor adventure. The program follows the school calendar year, with activities held on weekends and during school holidays.

A NEW Regional Growth Fund designed to support major projects over $20 million that take advantage of the region’s natural economic strengths has been launched. Federal Member for Lyne Dr David Gillespie said the new $272-million programme was now open for applications. “This programme is all about seeking big ideas from the community that can help shape the future of the regions. The Regional Growth Fund will support additional investment for sustainable economic growth, including from the private sector, other levels of government, and not-for-profit organisations,” Dr Gillespie said “Initial applications close on 27 April 2018 and I encourage everyone eligible in our community to look at the program guidelines and get started on an application.” The Regional Growth Fund is an open invitation to everyone eligible who believes in regional and remote Australia to partner with the Coalition Government to support positive change for the future.

OPINION

Main road is getting worse Dear News Of The Area, I AM both irritated by, and fascinated with, the selfinterest of political priorities. Has your irritation with political funding decisions challenged your passive thinking to a point of provoking public advocacy? Well, well, well, I am out of the kennel! Congratulations to the communities of Pindimar & Buladelah on securing promises of Federal Funding for road upgrades to their communities. It is also noted with interest that the access

We work, we buy things we don’t need with money we don’t have, we gossip about people who don’t deserve to be gossiped about, and we complain about first world problems such as having to scan our own grocery items. These are not problems; they are reminders that we have the capacity to make choices in a country that is relatively prosperous and laid back. I don’t want to get all Louise Hay on you and start chanting affirmations, but health is the number one priority. Anything else is a bonus. If you and your husband are well enough to swim with stingrays or dance up and down alps like the Von Trapp family, I say go for it. Don’t wait until you get a poor diagnosis like the characters from your movie. The other advantage is that your husband has watched what seems to be an inspirational, feel good, family-friendly flick.

So, could I ask the Federal Member, the next time he puts his hand into the lucky dip jar for federal roads maintenance funding that the twin towns of Tea Gardens/Hawks Nest’, is miraculously pulled from the jar. Alternatively, could he ensure that the sign on the notorious hill out of our twin towns, with the irritating sign, albeit somewhat dated, THIS IS A FEDERALLY FUNDED PROJECT’, be removed.

But as a resident of the significantly increasing population of Tea Gardens my cynicism is magnified and my despair is enhanced when you note the inferior comparative state of our major access road. Hawks Nest, a major holiday destination, visited by substantial numbers of caravaners are confronted with, in some instances narrow roadworks unsuitable for passing caravans and indeed the causeway mid-journey, presents serious challenges for these vehicles.

A special kind of person is needed when families are dealing with the loss of a loved one, and families on the Myall Coast may just recognise the friendly face of Nadine Stone.

By Rachael VAUGHAN

A SPECIAL kind of person is needed when families are dealing with the loss of a loved one, and families on the Myall Coast may just recognise the friendly face of Nadine Stone. Nadine is the Salamander Bay Supervisor of White Lady Funerals, but has developed strong connections with families all over the Myall Coast over many years of commitment, compassion, and professionalism. It is a difficult decision to choose the people who will help you with the process of farewelling a loved one, and Nadine takes immense pride in her connections to community to ensure this process for local families is as easy as possible, by providing genuine care and support, gently guiding families through the arrangement process.

Nadine also offers an extra element to her service, offering to visit you in your own home to plan and make the process easier. Nadine Stone told News Of The Area,”We understand how hard it is to lose someone close, and the importance of honouring their life, which we ensure with our specialised approach to funeral services.” “I think women are excellent listeners and attuned to the needs of others through our natural nurturing qualities, so a woman’s understanding of these matters can make all the difference to the precious memories that your family will have forever.” “We aim to make the steps of arranging a funeral as smooth as possible to ensure your loved one’s funeral is carried out with respect and dignity,” she said. “When someone says that I’ve ‘made it easy’ for them,

I know I’ve done my job,” Nadine added. With their elegant white uniforms and distinctive fleet of white cars, White Lady Funerals brings a refreshing, modern touch to the funeral industry. Nadine says, “Our care begins with your first phone call and doesn’t just end when the service is complete.” “Our care also extends to families after the funeral is over via memorial services and grief support offered throughout the year.” Importantly, White Lady Funerals can also assist you in speaking with your family about your desired funeral or memorial arrangements. Discussing death can be difficult and the team at White Lady Funerals has the expertise to ensure the conversation is managed gracefully. If you prepay your funeral with White Lady Funerals

extensive range of radio hits. Using guitar, vocals and a range of harmonicas, James beats out each song with passion and enthusiasm that is unique, all through a state of the art sound system. James has and will continue to cater for a huge list of venues week after week. From wall to wall crammed pubs to laid back cafes and functions for all ages. James fell in love with Music at the age of 12 or so and begged his parents for guitar tuition. Jamie said, “I thankfully had a disciplined tutor who taught strict reading music much to my disappointment at the time, but as soon as I began playing, I was writing my own music and lyrics.” The love for music became permanent, and Jamie longed to make it his career. Jamie said, “As life went on I became frustrated with

the mundane working to pay the bills life and left my job to pursue my dreams, and I haven’t looked back.” “I have never given up on this dream and now here I am doing it.” “I am truly doing this for myself but I dearly hope you

enjoy it,” he said. Nelson Bay Bowling Club is a venue that has something for everyone, and it’s the place to be this weekend if you want to enjoy a relaxing night out.

Breaking Records on the Track

By Margie TIERNEY

YOUNG local athlete Keira McGregor continues to break records. After a brief break over summer, 11 year old Keira returned to the track recently at the Little Athletics Regional Championships at Mingara. “She won all 4 of her events, the 100m, 200m, triple jump and long jump, with a record leap of 5.12m, a record that has stood for 28 years,” proud dad John McGregor said. A modest Keira said, “I wish to thank my coach Charles Ringuet for the hours, days, weeks, years he has spent helping me .” “Also many thanks for the help and support from my Raymond Terrace Athletics Club and Dave Summerville.” “I was very happy to break a 28 year old long jump

record.” The Hawks Nest youngster has been competing since she was seven years old and late last year won a silver medal at her first international competition. “Keira deserves all the achievements that she obtains because of the enduring and concentrated training schedule she carries out all the year,” John McGregor added. Keira’s is now off to the State Championships being held at Sydney Olympic Park from March 23 through to March 25. She’ll be competing in 4 events. Keira now has her own fundraising page with the Australian Sports Foundation. If you’d like to donate go to https://asf.org.au/ athletes/keira-mcgregor.

Notification of proposed upgrade to a nbn™ Radio Network Base Station Facility at Williamtown The National Broadband Network (nbn™) is a high speed broadband network designed to reach 100 per cent of national premises and provide the communications infrastructure to prevent Australians from falling behind in an increasingly online world. nbn™ is committed to delivering leading edge broadband services to all Australians by leveraging the three available types of technology – fixed line, fixed wireless and satellite, depending on location. As part of the fixed radio (wireless) component of the Network, nbn™ is proposing to install one (1) parabolic dish antenna, eight (8) panel antennas and twelve (12) remote radio units on the existing AUSGRID facility in Williamtown. nbn™ regards the proposed installation as a Low-impact Facility under the Telecommunications (Low-impact Facilities) Determination 1997.
