TOCAL Agricultural College (TOCAL) and Nambucca Valley based youth not-forprofit ShoreTrack will team up to develop a model to support young people in the region no longer interested in completing their education at school.

The partnership is possible through an $840,000 investment by the NSW Liberal and Nationals Government.

“This program is for people as young as fifteen who are looking for a different educational pathway.

Dramatic arrests made after water pursuit of wanted man

the location of a wanted man.

Local police, with assistance from the Marine Area Command, the Dog Unit and Traffic and Highway Patrol, attended Gumma Reserve and commenced a search of the

location.

A short time later, two men were seen exiting bushland nearby and entering a boat near Warrell Point.

The boat was pursued by the Marine Area Command after it failed to stop when directed, before the men abandoned it on a riverbank west of Macksville, where they fled on foot.

Following a short foot pursuit,

two men, aged 29 and 27, were arrested in a nearby farm paddock in Wilson Road and both were taken to Macksville Police Station.

The 29-year-old man was charged with four outstanding warrants relating to traffic and further domestic violence-related offences.

The 27-year-old man was charged with hindering police in

the execution of their duty, breach of bail, operating as master of a vessel without a licence, not carrying specified safety equipment, operating an unregistered vessel, and operating a vessel not displaying a registration number.

Both men were refused bail to appear at Port Macquarie Local Court on Sunday 15 January 2023.

Investigations are continuing.

Reflections responds to vandalism and parking concerns

q The damage to the grassy area near the Recreation Hut.

ACKNOWLEDGING the recent vandalism to the grassed area of the Scotts Head Recreation Reserve, Reflections Holiday Parks, who manage the reserve, say they are working with Nambucca Valley Council to respond to issues occuring around the reserve and parking areas.

“The damage to the reserve is disappointing,” said a Reflections Holiday Parks spokesperson.

“On the reserve area, we will be doing maintenance work to repair the grass, and we plan to install bollards around the reserve area to prevent unauthorised access, while still allowing access for essential vehicles (e.g. markets and associated services).”

The spokesperson said

Reflections had received concerns from the community regarding vehicles (e.g. campervans) parking on the Scotts Head reserve area (adjacent to the park) overnight and in some cases, for days.

“We have looked into the matter with Nambucca Valley Council and can confirm that those vehicles are not connected with the Holiday Park,” they said.

“We have been working with

Council to identify a solution.”

Reflections have agreed to install signage prohibiting parking between 10pm and 5am.

Council will then arrange patrols and can issue infringement notices.

learning accredited skills such as laser cutting and 3D printing,” Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional NSW Paul Toole said.

“As a former teacher, I understand a school-based education isn’t for everyone.

“Piloting this program will set young people up for a successful future by giving them the opportunity to gain a hands-on learning experience.”

Member for Oxley Mel Pavey said the Certificate II Rural Operation Program Pilot will also create a pathway into the workforce for people aged up to 22 who need to upskill or weren’t able to complete their education.

“It’s programs like this that will mean more people don’t have to travel to get an education, they can stay in their hometown, with their support networks and have the best chance at starting a successful career,” Mrs Pavey said.

“I am pleased to see even more education options being made available to young people across the region.

“ShoreTrack and TOCAL will allow these young people to complete assignments and develop their work readiness in a supportive environment before giving them the chance to participate in work experience two days a week.”

Cliff Cooper celebrates 100 years on Christmas Day

By Mick BIRTLES

FOR the family of lifelong local Cliff Cooper, Christmas has always been a double celebration.

It was on 25 December 1922 that Cliff Cooper was born and he has now spent a century sharing a birthday with someone notably born in Bethlehem.

On Christmas Eve his family gathered at the Macksville ExServicemens Club to celebrate this amazing milestone.

One of Cliff’s daughters, Robyn Wood, told News Of The Area, “Dad still lives at home at Warrell Creek

and although he has some mobility issues, his mind is still sharp.

“When you are 100 years old your friends have long since passed away so it was mostly family there to help him celebrate, and it was special that Dad's younger sister, Shirley, could be there also,” Robyn said.

Cliff has led a fascinating life.

Born in Macksville, and spending his school years at Eungai and Warrell Creek, Cliff moved to Queensland as a young man and it was from there he enlisted in the Army in 1942.

Serving as a medic with the

2nd Australian Imperial Force, Cliff was posted to Lae in New Guinea as a reinforcement.

Cliff spent his 21st birthday on Christmas Day in 1943 on an American troopship receiving a special lunch of a cup of coffee with two army biscuits spread with peanut butter and plum jam.

In 1945 he served at Morotai and then Balikpapan, Borneo, arriving under gunfire and

Time To Check Electoral Roll

By Marian SAMPSON

NOW is the time to check that you are correctly enrolled to vote in the upcoming State Election.

For those who have just turned eighteen, the 25 March election will be their first opportunity to have their say on who governs our state.

NSW Electoral Commissioner John Schmidt said with polling

day fast approaching, now was a great time to get election ready.

“Whether you need to enrol for the first time, update your details or just check where you are enrolled, it’s quick and easy to do online.

“Go to www.elections.nsw. gov.au and you’ll get all the information you need.”

Mr Schmidt said more than 100,000 people in NSW would be

eligible to vote, but are not on the electoral roll.

“It is compulsory to enrol to vote in NSW if you are eligible and eighteen or over.”

It is important to check your enrollment if you have moved house or changed your name since the last election.

nearly crippled with sea sickness.

When Cliff was discharged from the Army in August 1946 he was given ten pounds with which he purchased a sledge hammer and a kit of wedges; going bush to become a timber cutter.

Always a man of the land, through his life Cliff has also been a dairy farmer, a banana farmer, beekeeper and has owned race horses and greyhounds.

Cliff married Audrey Searle in 1952 and

they went on to have three children, Ross, Robyn and John, all born at Taylors Arm.

Sadly, Audrey passed away in 2016.

Cliff, who has eleven grandchildren and nine great grandchildren, believes his secret to longevity is a healthy diet, a physical lifestyle, good genes, and good luck.

Karl S Williams mesmerises at the Bowraville Theatre

By Mick BIRTLES

IN a six concert series that has continued to bring renowned artists to the humbly beautiful Bowraville Theatre, the fourth instalment played out in spectacular fashion last Saturday night when the genre defying Karl S Williams walked the boards.

The softly spoken native of Northern New South Wales was jaw dropping from the first note to leave his lips until the last.

The man's vocal range is so rich and vast that it is almost distracting as you try comparing him with some of rock and folk greats and just when you think you have nailed it you hear something else.

Think Jesus channelling Bob Seger and you are kind of in the ballpark.

When Karl performed his latest single ‘Mighty Judgment’ it is hard not to think you have

found the last great protest singer, then you rethink your stance as he puts down the guitar, takes up his place at the keyboard and delivers piano ballads overflowing with love and spirituality.

Karl S Williams was paired with his perfect supporting act on Saturday night in the form of Vena Klymo.

The singer/ songwriter has the rare ability to turn what might otherwise be mundane topics, such as the love for her first car and growing up in a small town, into clever poetry set to velvety guitar.

Still in her mid-20s, Vena has been able to accumulate enough

life experience to populate an impressive catalogue of songs that are as meaningful as they are fun.

Karl S Williams was overtly in awe of the Bowraville Theatre as a place to perform and told News Of The Area, “Venues like this theatre are rare and it has been an absolute

pleasure to share my music in such an intimate and beautiful space.”

This concert was the fourth of six events at the Bowraville Theatre presented by Archive Mid North Coast.

Their program is designed to refresh and reliven the theatre, to

provide opportunities for touring and local musicians and to bring accessible and inclusive music events to this regional community and made possible by the NSW Government’s Reconnecting Regional NSW - Community Events Program.

‘Simply Irresistible’ Drag Night at Yarrahapinni Hotel

By Jen HETHERINGTON

ON Saturday night, 14 January, the Yarrahapinni Hotel at Stuarts Point hosted the return of its ‘Drag Night’, a glitzy cabaret production that was last performed seven years ago.

Master of Ceremonies for the evening, Tiffany Mackay, told News Of The Area, “We have been saying for a few years that we need to do it again, so a date was set, the girls were coming back to wow us."

Tiffany provided News Of The Area a rundown on the talented range of performers.

“‘Charlotte the Harlot’ has been the alter ego of Charles Taylor since way back in the day when she/he performed in Sydney,” she said.

“‘Natasha’ (Wayne) lives in Stuarts Point and has been entertaining with Charlotte and in her own right as Natasha for decades.

“She is known for her amazing renditions of Cher.

“She’s cheeky and lots of fun while calling it like it is.

“‘Coco’ is a Brisbane performer and announced to us later backstage that this was her last performance.

“Her Japanese Geisha dances are a wonderful sight to see.

“‘Kara Van Park’ has a wide repertoire from ‘traditional’ drag to modern.

“She loves to mix things up, especially reworking song lyrics that suit her, fun and bawdy.

“Kara is your classic ‘Queen’.

“Local Mike Cooper as ‘Maria’ had fun as Helen Reddy, letting us all know he/she was all woman.

“Mike is married to local real estate agent Catarina.”

Kate, the local Stuarts Point Pharmacist, and her three coperforming ‘fellas’ known locally as

the ‘The Pelican Smugglers’, offered a sassy, gender-bending performance of Robert Palmer’s 1988 hit single ‘Simply Irresistible’.

“It was frantic at times backstage, with all of us jockeying for mirror space in a tiny three stall bathroom,” said Tiffany.

“I took a teeny tumble down the stage stairs and sprained my foot, but on with the show.

“So the heels came off and I was reprimanded on stage, ‘a lady never walks in bare feet’.”

Tiffany extended praise and thanks to those who helped inspire the event’s long-awaited return.

“Charles Taylor was the instigator of it all, he was missing the fun and excitement of performing.

“A special mention to Helen, who was the wardrobe and makeup lady and has worked with the girls for years.

“She’s a marvel and the girls love her.

“We say thank you to the pub and to the people of Stuarts Point for their support and hopefully we can do another show next year,” Tiffany said.

Many of the large audience came along dressed for the occasion and all attendees had a great time.

ON February 25, Nambucca Valley Phoenix Gallery in Bowraville’s High Street opens a statement art exhibition called ‘Walking Together –Voice, Treaty, Truth’, a group exhibition of paintings, sculpture and mixed media works by local artists living on Gumbaynggirr and Dunghutti Country.

Contributors Janet Besançon and Julie Byers live in Coffs, Carol Clarkson is from Sawtell, Jaine Rubine is a Raleigh resident and Lee Albert is from Goolawah, near Crescent Head.

The works as a collection offer a very personal response to the Uluru Statement from the Heart and its three elements –Voice, Treaty and Truth.

“It is our way of honouring the Uluru Statement from the Heart,” participating artist Julie Byers told News Of The Area.

“As a group of nonIndigenous female artists living on unceded Gumbaynggirr and Dunghutti Country we accept the gracious invitation given us by First peoples - to walk together for a better future.

“Responding through the power of creativity is our small way of adding our voice toward positive change, acknowledging that this is complex and contested terrain.”

The works in the exhibition draw from the artists’ personal experiences of growing up or

emigrating to an Australia that did not see or celebrate itself as home to the oldest living culture on earth, stretching back over 65,000 years.

“It did not understand or accept sovereignty as a spiritual notion, the ancestral tie between the land, or ‘mother nature’, and First peoples,” Julie said.

“Instead, it sought to silence First peoples, to disempower and subjugate.”

This is the hard truth that drives the artists’ work.

Another exhibition contributor, Janet Besançon shares the inspiration behind her work.

“More than three hundred languages are spoken in Australia, so it is difficult to find one way to put everyone together.

“The only way found was to speak from the hearts to the hearts.

“I speak the heart language and always find other hearts to communicate with.

“It is in this humble and colourful language I show my respect and support to First Nation hearts.”

Julie Byers said the Uluru Statement from the Heart was a motivation to learn more about Australian history and Indigenous culture.

“To be truthful it has taken the Uluru Statement from the Heart for me to go away and educate myself about our shared history and to learn more about First peoples’ ways of knowing and being.

“My work for this exhibition maps this journey, from truthtelling to hope for a fairer, better future.

“I use both language and visual imagery in the medium of ‘analogue’ collage to tell a story and combine experimental printmaking into my work.”

Carol Clarkson is an English born artist who has called Australia her home for the last 40 years.

“Upon my arrival I was totally ignorant of Australia’s colonial history and even more ignorant of the 50-100,000 years of Indigenous history preceding it.

“It has been with a sense of shock and shame that I have learned of some of the past atrocities that have been committed by white Australia against its First Nations people.

“It is with an on-going sense of shame and disgust that I continue to learn of the terrible injustices committed against First Nations people in the present day.

“I whole-heartedly accept the generous invitation, as

outlined by First Nations people in the Uluru Statement from the Heart, to accompany them on their journey for a kinder and fairer Australia.

“Let us all walk together and vote ‘yes’ in the upcoming Referendum to support a Voice to Parliament.”

For this body of work, artist Jaine Ruben has focused on seeds, which she believes are “a symbol of growth and new life”.

“I honour the tenacity and potential encapsulated in each one, at a time that requires regeneration on so many levels,” Jaine said.

“With these works I pay my respects to the original custodians of this land, and offer gratitude for the invitation extended through the Uluru Statement from the Heart to join in their walk toward recognition of the right to Voice, Treaty and Truth.”

Artist Lee Albert took inspiration for her exhibition

work from a phrase within the Uluru Statement, which states that ‘sovereignty is a spiritual notion’.

“(The phrase) fixed in my mind as perfectly describing the ancestral tie between the land and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples,” Lee said.

“Sovereignty was never

ceded.

Phoenix Gallery opens Walking Together exhibition

“It can’t be taken by force or written out of history by western arrogance.

“As I have researched and tried to educate myself about our shared dark history, I acknowledge there is a depth of trauma and powerlessness unimaginable to most white Australians.”

Brazilian dance delights Stuarts Point

By Jen HETHERINGTON

WHO knew that a relatively quiet Monday evening at Stuarts Point would turn out to be a barefoot dance party enjoyed by all ages in the welcoming surrounds of Stuarts Point Community Hall?

Forro Dance Party, coordinated by Brazilian born Carolina Moretzohn and her troupe of beat driven dancers and musicians, organised the event held on 16 January as a way of sharing their enthusiasm for movement through music and dance, with an admission donation of $10.

“We are a group of girls who share a passion for dance and music and found that

it was better when we do it together, supporting each other,” Carolina said.

This approach easily translates to the local community attitude, as demonstrated during recent events in Stuarts Point.

Fresh from swimming in the ocean, the Forro Troupe, consisting of relatively inexperienced performers delivered raw, yet inspiring musical renditions of familiar Latin American, Cuban and Contemporary tunes.

Carolina, in her role as a vibrant dance instructor, took participants through the basic steps of Brazilian Dance, and emphasised the fact that partnering for dance need not be a gendered conclusion, born out by the surprise birthday dance for her friend,

The little town with a big heart

By Mick BIRTLES

IN 2014 some caring residents of Bowraville decided to work at putting on a Christmas lunch for locals in the St James Anglican Church Hall.

The St Jimmy’s Christmas Lunch was born.

The lunch, held on

Christmas Day, gives locals who don’t have other plans, may be alone or just not able to venture too far from home, an opportunity to have a great community Christmas lunch.

Local pharmacist Kerrie Savins and caretaker of the Anglican Hall, Tony Fuller, are now the organisers.

Tony told News Of The Area, “This year we were able to provide a delicious Christmas lunch for 86 people and our wonderful volunteers who give up their Christmas Day to help.

“Feeding that many people does not come cheap and we are very grateful to a number

of businesses in the Nambucca Valley and Coffs Harbour for getting behind this wonderful initiative.”

This unique annual event ensures attendees enjoy a day filled with the Christmas spirit and includes much singing and laughter.

“We have lucky door prizes throughout the day but really everyone walks away with a gift,” Tony said.

Kerrie Savins told News Of The Area, “Our wonderful St Jimmy’s Hall has recently been improved with the installation of a new air-conditioning system making us all much more comfortable while we celebrate Christmas with our community lunch.”

The groundswell of support for the St Jimmy’s Christmas Lunch is impressive with a long list of businesses helping out.

Macksville, Macksville ExServices Club, Bowraville Lions Club, Norco Milk Factory Raleigh, Bowraville Post Office and the Macksville CWA.

“The St Jimmy’s Christmas lunch is also for those beyond Bowraville and some folks come along from as far as Kempsey and Coffs and it is also free of charge,” Tony said.

Bowraville truly is a little town with a big heart.

The Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional NSW, Paul Toole, said the 24 scholarships, valued at more than $6,000 each, are available to women from regional, rural and remote parts of the State to develop their leadership skills.

“There are so many amazing women leading communities, leading businesses and leading critical conversations in the bush - and we want to encourage those wanting to step up and do the same,” said Mr Toole.

“This program is a great chance for 24 women from all corners of the State to supercharge their leadership potential.”

Bronnie Taylor, the Minister for Women, said the program has been an overwhelming success and encouraged women from all corners of regional and rural NSW to take up this once-ina-lifetime opportunity.

“This program equips our region’s future female leaders with the tools and knowledge they need

The NSW Government has partnership with Future Women, an organisation delivering virtual events, leadership training and a curated digital network to its members.

Recipients receive a place in the Future Women Platinum+ Program worth $6,000, where they will take part in networking, mentoring and digital learning opportunities.

They will also be invited to attend the Future Women Leadership Summit on March 6 and 7 this year to celebrate International Women’s Day.

Cath Fowler, one of last year’s two Coffs Coast recipients said, "A key part of the Future Women's scholarship was the trip to Sydney for their Leadership Summit back in March 2022.

“It was great to be able to come together and not just enjoy great talks about issues facing women in leadership, but also have the next twelve

“The sessions on building relationships in communities and a chat with Grace Tame, about using your voice, I found particularly inspiring.”

Ms Fowler said forming a strong connection with the other scholarship recipients throughout rural and regional NSW was the greatest thing she took from experience and some recipients organised catch ups online once a month, with ongoing plans to stay in touch and support each other in the future.

“Having come from a corporate career environment in Sydney where these types of opportunities were readily available for leadership development, it's been great to have these kinds of opportunities extended to us here in regional NSW through this scholarship,” she said.

Applications are open until February 16 for all women living in regional, rural and remote NSW aged 18-39 years old.

Dorin’s Draws

By Manny WOOD

Promises lead to claim on real estate

ROBERT and his mother, Janice each own neighbouring properties.

Robert moves-in with his mother to look after her and decides to rent-out his property.

Robert’s work as a truck driver means that he is often away.

David has been a good friend of Robert’s for many years and after Robert has problems with his tenants, he talks to David about moving-in.

Robert says to David, “If you look after my mother when I’m not there, you can move into my property.

“All you need to do is pay the rates and other outgoings and keep the property in reasonable repair. If you do that, you can stay as long as you like.”

David is more than happy with the arrangement and soon moves-in.

While Robert is away working, David checks on Janice a couple of times a night and takes her shopping and to medical appointments.

This arrangement continues for ten years until Robert says to David, “Thank you for your help over the years. If anything happens to me, I know you will look after my mother. Don’t let her go into a nursing home. She will hate it. If you do this, you can keep the property.”

Unfortunately, Robert unexpectedly passes-away.

Robert’s will had not been updated in many years and leaves everything to his only son.

David continues to look after Janice until she passes-away a few years later.

When Robert’s son asks David to vacate the property, David commences Court action.

After a three-day hearing, the Court finds that Robert’s representations and David’s reliance on those representations, created an “equitable estoppel” and that it was unconscionable for Robert’s son to depart from the promises.

The Court rules that David was entitled to not only reside in the property for life but that he was entitled to the property outright.

Robert’s estate is ordered to pay the legal costs.

David also receives a gift of $100,000 under Janice’s will.

DEAR Jasminda,

Two months ago, I met a wonderful woman, and everything is going brilliantly except when we watch movies together.

During the movie, she picks at her nails and I can't focus on the movie because all I can hear is this hideous picking noise.

I don't think I can make this a longterm relationship as I'm a movie buff.

Nambucca Valley Emergency Services - Australian Red Cross

By Nambucca Valley Red Cross

JANUARY 2023

The Nambucca Valley team were busy towards the end of the last year with a number of community events within our area and further north.

Community Events Club Scotts: Wednesday 23 November 2022

Nambucca Valley Red Cross were invited by Vanessa Barbour, Manager, to present a brief session on the role of the Red Cross at an Evacuation Centre.

Vanessa and committee members of the community were supportive of this event and group discussions provided clarity concerning the key considerations and issues at such centres.

The safety of the community is a key consideration for the Club Scotts and we thank Vanessa for inviting Red Cross to connect with this community.

Club Iluka: Fun Day, Sunday 27 November 2022

Woolgoolga Emergency Services Red Cross invited Helen Mower and Adele McCollom to attend a Fun Day at Iluka, as Pillowcase Presenters and assist with two pillowcase presentations.

The day was sponsored by COPE (Iluka Community organisation - planning for emergencies) to promote future disaster preparedness and assist in connecting the community.

A Red Cross marquee was located in an outside area of the club and provided support to residents on up-to-date resources available to help in an emergency situation including the latest Apps for Emergencies.

It was a fun day full of activities including barefoot bowls, face painting and tattoos with live music and farm animals for the younger members of the family to see and enjoy.

AS Facility – Coffs Harbour Airport: 16 December 2022

Networking with Woolgoolga Emergency Services also occurred in December 2022.

Both teams attended a tour of the Air Services

at Coffs Harbour Airport.

This was an opportunity for all members to familiarise themselves with the layout of the facility which could be beneficial should an emergency event unfold at this location.

Pillowcase – Preparedness session

Red Cross deliver the program ‘Pillowcase’ to primary schools across the state.

Since Covid this delivery has been suspended until restrictions were lifted regarding access to schools.

2023 will see the reintroduction of this into our local community once again.

We encourage local primary schools to a take advantage of Pillowcase and invite Red Cross to deliver this short

presentation to their students.

This session is fun and helps children to think about an emergency and what to pack in their pillowcase.

NSW Floods

The floods in Eastern Australia have had a devastating impact on communities.

People who lost their homes months ago are still living in limbo, struggling to recover.

Red Cross teams have supported communities in the Northern Rivers, Murray Riverina, Central West, Far West, Central Coast, Hunter, Hawkesbury and Sydney.

We will continue to help people face the huge task of putting their lives back together and connect with people who are isolated from friends and family.

Overseas: Ukraine

24 November 2022 marked nine months since the escalation of the international armed conflict in Ukraine.

It’s estimated up to eighteen million people have been affected, many of them living in active conflict zones facing loss of power, heating, water and health care.

Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement have reached over ten million people, providing essential humanitarian assistance, healthcare including mental health support, cash and

Oh, Roger,

While I appreciate that you are a movie buff, I can't quite fathom that you would end a relationship due to what is probably a subconscious, nervous habit.

We all have irritating predispositions and in the scheme of annoying habitsbinge eating, nose picking, smoking, openmouthed chewing, compulsive swearingnail picking seems relatively innocuous.

Perhaps she is bored senseless by your movie selections.

Or maybe you select horror movies that scare the living daylights out of her and she's too polite to say anything, so she has to pick her nails as a form of self-soothing.

Instead of thinking of ending the relationship, you could hold one of her hands, a romantic gesture that will kill two birds with one stone.

Or you could give her a relaxing hand massage.

Maybe you just need to turn up the volume so you can't hear nail-picking antics.

Another option could be to treat her to a manicure - some gel nails may prevent the habit.

Frankly, if you would consider leaving someone due to such an innocent vice, I think nail picking is the least of your problems.

Stop being so picky.

Pun intended.

Carpe diem, Jasminda.

voucher assistance, water and sanitation services, as well as supporting voluntary evacuations from armed-conflict-affected areas.

As a last thought, recovery is never short or easy.

Like our fires and floods or any emergency situation, please remember and be reassured that Red Cross will be there for as long as it takes.

Red Cross Emergency Services: Team Meeting

Our first meeting for 2023 will be held at the Red Cross Teahouse in Bowra Street on Saturday 4 February at 9:15 am.

If you are interested in learning more or joining our team, please come along.

Times Gone By: The Wreck of the s.s. Belmore

By Karen FILEWOOD

BUILT at Macleay River in 1870, the 66-ton s.s. Belmore was owned by the North Coast Steamship Navigation Company (NCSN Co.) and worked as a tender, transporting passengers and cargo between port and larger steamships, when bigger ships could not dock.

Exactly a hundred and thirty years ago today in 1893, unable to cross the Bellinger River bar, Belmore came to Coffs Harbour, complete with passengers and cargo from Burrawong, to shelter from a rising easterly gale.

Winds blowing up to 96km per hour kept the ship in the harbour until the following evening when, to save passengers and cargo,

the captain beached the timber ship south of the jetty at 7:40 pm.

Everyone landed safely, then in the morning cargo and luggage were unloaded and taken to the jetty goods shed.

A week later the supervising engineer of the NCSN Co. arrived to plan the refloating of Belmore, helped by Mr Davis of Nambucca and his men who arrived at the end of February.

Although the ship had deteriorated after its extended stay on the beach, over the following days the men worked hard bracing the steamer and raising it out of the sand by three feet.

‘Ways’ were laid over 150 feet (45 metres) and three teams of bullocks hauled the steamer along them, ready for

media@newsofthearea.com.au

launching on the next high tide in a few hours.

While waiting for the tide a large sea began to roll into the harbour and by midnight waves were breaking over Belmore undoing all the men’s work to ready the ship for launching.

By morning it was found the ship had been thoroughly knocked about, re-buried in four feet of sand and had three feet of water in the hold.

Unable to save Belmore, Captain Nicholson removed the engine and boiler, which were placed on the jetty ready to be shipped to Sydney.

The hull remained sound and it was thought that after some repair it would be floated and turned into a punt.

The time variation should be added to the corresponding Fort Denison time.

In view of the variations caused by local conditions and meteorological effects, these times are approximate and must be considered as a guide only.

They are not to be relied on for critical depth calculations for safe navigation. Actual times of High and Low Water may occur before or after the times indicated.

FRIDAY

MONTY DON’S ADRIATIC GARDENS

ABC, 7.30pm

British gardener Monty Don’s screen presence is intoxicating – is it the curly hair, the lilting British accent or his smooth voice? – but it’s only fair to concede that it’s no match for the scenery in his travel shows, which is uniformly magnificent. In this new three-part series starting tonight, the plant lover and culture connoisseur invites us on a fascinating journey as he explores the influence that the Venetians have had on horticulture, from centuries past through to the present day.

MONDAY GHOSTS

TEN, 8.45pm

Young couple Sam (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) are trying to turn the ramshackle country house they inherited into a successful B&B. After a near-death experience, Sam can see and hear the many ghosts who inhabit the house, so the couple always have some spirited helpers to call on. In this episode, feisty jazz singer Alberta’s (Danielle Pinnock, pictured) Prohibitionera expertise comes in handy when Sam and Jay run into complications during a whiskey tasting soiree. Meanwhile, Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones) wants to start his own ghost fraternity, but finds the others joining a group set up by Trevor (Asher Grodman), because of the fun it promises.

MONDAY BODY OF LIES

7MATE, 10.30pm

Based on the novel by David Ignatius, Ridley Scott’s geopolitical

war on terror as waged by Americans on foreign soil, and back home in the US. Leonardo DiCaprio (above) plays a young spy who infiltrates a terrorist cell under the remote instruction of an indifferent CIA veteran (Russell Crowe). Writer William Monahan, who won an Oscar for Martin Scorsese’s The Departed successfully brings the novel’s gritty urgency and combative character dynamics to the big screen as the mismatched pair team up to bring down an emerging terrorist leader.

“We also entered a team into the Intermediate Senior Girl team competition held in Sydney and proudly, they gained fourth place.
