Creating new devices to engage and direct children’s attention towards the history and emotional worth Anzac Day bears is crucial, and Narangba State School Deputy Principal, Mr Kerry Lofgren, has done just that by creating a song about Anzac Day which encourages the participation of students in remembrance celebrations.

Moulding the Future of Stellarossa Narangba WORDS: Tim Vetter

Have you ever left a restaurant or cafe disappointed after not quite finding what you were looking for? Well now is your chance to change that.

nights,” Peter said. “It doesn’t matter if the kids are rowdy or anything, we want families to feel comfortable coming here.

Peter and Cherie Hayes, new owners of Stellarossa Narangba, are asking for locals to help shape the future of the popular cafe.

“People are welcome to bring their dogs as well – we like seeing the pleasantly surprised reactions when we take out a bowl of water for dogs without customers asking for it.

“We can offer a variety of Chef’s Specials, but we need the feedback,” Peter said. “At the moment we’re just guessing and going by what we would like as customers, but we’d rather cater for what the public wants. “If someone tells us that a pasta night will be popular for example, or that they’d like more options of a certain food, we can do it.” Venturing into the industry for the first time, the Bellmere locals said that flexibility was one of the big reasons behind their decision to buy. “I’ve been in the furniture industry for 20 years and Cherie has been a full-time mum for 15, so we’re looking forward to the challenge of owning a business,” Peter said. “We wanted a change in lifestyle and career path, so thought we’d go out of our comfort zone a bit, and we’ve always preferred eating at a cafe than a tavern or club, so we saw this as a really good opportunity for us. “It’s quite different when you’re the one in charge rather than being told what to do, but we like the freedom that affords. With a lot of franchises you have to stick to a set menu which can’t be changed, but Stellarossa gives us the option to offer whatever Chef’s Specials we like.”

“The research we did shows a large portion of Narangba’s population is young families, so we want this to be their go-to destination, not only for a meal but to come and relax.” With three children aged fifteen, six and one, the couple say their biggest challenge is dividing themselves between work and family. “Lately we’ve been getting home and just wanting to do nothing but rest,” Peter said. “We’ve got a strong team consisting of three chefs and senior baristas who are helping train the juniors. “We love being near the water, and perhaps when things settle down a bit, we can have more time for some weekends up the coast like we used to – particularly Hervey Bay.” Originally from Sydney, Peter and Cherie have family around Morayfield and the Gold Coast, and themselves have lived in Bellmere for the last eight years. Peter says they want to get to know as many locals as they can, and welcome people introducing themselves or coming in for a chat.

As well as continuing the tradition of live music every Saturday night, the new owners have plenty of ideas for their new venture. “We’re trying to make it more of a family environment, by offering specials like kids eat free on Thursday

Burpengary East’s Commonwealth Games Funded Parkrun WORDS: Rebecca Fawcett-Smith PHOTO: Alycia Watt, ShutterSpeed Photography

While the victors of the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games (GC2018) are yet to be decided, North Harbour parkrun participants are already celebrating a GC2018 win. Launched last November as part of the Embracing 2018 #parkrun4everyone campaign funded by the GC2018 Legacy Program, North Harbour parkrun in Burpengary East is one of 20 new parkrun sites operating across Australia. The #parkrun4everyone campaign combines the Program’s aspiration to build active, engaged and inclusive communities beyond GC2018’s 11 days of unforgettable sporting competition, with parkrun’s free, weekly, 5km timed runs. North Harbour parkrun, the first of the new Queensland sites to be rolled out, launched with over 260 participants. Parkrun Australia’s CEO Tim Oberg said, “North Harbour parkrun was chosen as part of the Embracing 2018 Legacy Program as it is located in the heart of a major growth corridor between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast that was lacking in parkrun events. I’m so glad we chose to support this location as the course is sensational; weaving its way, cross country style, through the North Harbour Heritage Park and along the Caboolture River.” One of only a handful of parkrun sites that offer a full cross country course, North Harbour participants navigate grass, gravel and narrow trails as they make their way through the paddocks of a working farm. Dogs are not permitted due to the resident cattle, and all terrain prams are strongly recommended.

who walk the course every week, and it’s a really good opportunity for whole families to go out and get some exercise in, free of charge.” Participants are able to navigate the course with ease thanks to the support of North Harbour Development. Connie (also Co-Event Director of Central Lakes parkrun) said, “North Harbour have provided so much support. They had full course signage put up all through the course before we even launched.” Starting and finishing within North Harbour’s future $3M Heritage Park precinct, the course offers participants glimpses of heritage listed archaeological remains of the ‘Moray Fields’ settlement, which in coming years will be transformed into an interactive, educational historical attraction. North Harbour Project Director Peter Lightbody said, “North Harbour parkrun showcases the history and beautiful natural parklands in the area, and is encouraging people to take their first step towards a healthier lifestyle and to engage within the local community. “We’re extremely grateful to Connie and her team of volunteers who have made North Harbour parkrun so successful. It’s a great way to keep fit and healthy in a beautiful location along Caboolture River around our future Heritage Precinct site.”

“There’s a growing body of people that are starting to want to get off road, and who can see the benefits of running in nature itself,” said Event Director Connie. “The course has quite uneven terrain and the grass is quite thick in places, so it’s a good course to build your strength as a runner. Some sporting groups like soccer and AFL clubs come down and use it as training runs. “The course is for walkers as well. We get plenty of people

Easter Trivia WORDS: Karen Carter

Unbelievably, Term 1 2018 is already done and dusted! I hope your child has had a happy and successful first term at school. This year, Easter falls at the beginning of the school holidays, starting with Good Friday on March 30. Whether you are religious or not, Easter is a happy time of the year and a lovely opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends. Here are some interesting facts about Easter you might care to share with your child. •

Easter is a Christian festival forming part of Holy week, which consists of; Palm Sunday - the week before Easter Sunday, Good Thursday - the day of Jesus’ Last Supper, Good Friday - the day that Jesus was crucified, and Easter Sunday - the day Jesus rose from the dead.

•

The word Easter originated from’ Eastre’, the AngloSaxon goddess who symbolises hare and egg.

•

The date we celebrate Easter changes from year to year. This is because Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the full moon on the Spring Equinox between March 22 and April 25.

•

The Easter Bunny originated in Germany and the idea was taken to America during the 1700s. The first story of a rabbit (later named the ‘Easter Bunny’), hiding eggs in a garden was published in 1680.

•

The tallest chocolate Easter egg was made in Italy in 2011. It was 10.39 metres tall and weighed 7,200 kilograms! That’s taller than a giraffe and heavier than an elephant.

•

The traditional act of painting eggs is called Pysanka.

•

Apparently, about 80% of people prefer to eat the ears on a chocolate bunny first! Only 5% start with the tail.

•

In Australia, the Easter Bunny is widely controversial due to the damage rabbits cause to crops. Many Australians buy a chocolate Easter Bilby instead. Profits from many sales go to support bilby conservation projects.

•

Australians also enjoy eating hot cross buns. Some believe that the cross on a hot cross bun is a symbol of the cross Jesus was nailed to, but in fact, the AngloSaxons ate these buns, decorating them with a cross to symbolise the four quarters of the moon. In English folklore, it is believed that hot cross buns would help an ill person get better.

However you choose to spend the Easter break, go easy on the chocolate and may it be a happy time for all. Enjoy the break - Term 2 is just around the corner.

Why Do You Cry On ANZAC Day? WORDS: Nicholas Hastie

Emphasising the importance of Anzac Day to the younger generation through commemorative services is an important duty, as it allows an appreciation to grow. An appreciation of Australia, the freedom it carries, and all the lives sacrificed to achieve this. Creating new devices to engage and direct children’s attention towards the history and emotional worth Anzac Day bears is therefore crucial, and Narangba State School Deputy Principal, Mr Kerry Lofgren, has done just that by creating a song about Anzac Day which encourages the participation of students in remembrance celebrations. Written in 2007, ‘Why Do You Cry On Anzac Day?’ was inspired by a series of events that occurred during Mr Lofgren’s previous Deputy Principal posting. Responsible for coordinating the school’s Anzac Day ceremonies, Mr Lofgren noticed that the school had a sizeable amount of families in the Australian Defence Force, and that Anzac Day therefore played a very significant role for the children with parents serving. “I saw a girl crying during the ceremony, we had a reflection lawn, and we had mothers and fathers serving in the Australian Defence Force,” recalls Mr Lofgren. “One year as I was leaving, a father in uniform holding his child’s hand said thank you to me as he left. I thought this was interesting, and I was humbled because I should have been thanking this man.” An inner motivation and passion drove Kerry to orchestrate the musical piece, and with the concepts of his experiences incorporated into the lyrics, a meaningful song developed. “This is what I do. I take stories from people and events around me and write songs. I think it helps me put these things into context, and most of the time I feel appreciative of my situation.”

The first song that the school choir learns each year, ‘Why Do You Cry On Anzac Day?’ has been performed at Narangba State School’s Anzac Day ceremony for the past decade, with the school also extending the reach and message of the song to the surrounding communities. In 2010, the school choir were gifted the opportunity to perform the song on 612 ABC’s AM morning show, and in 2017 they performed the song at the Burpengary War Memorial Anzac Day Service.

Why Do You Cry On ANZAC Day? by Kerry Lofgren

I attend a ceremony ANZAC day each year. And as I think of what it means to me, my friend’s in tears. Why do you cry on ANZAC day? I just don’t understand. My father isn’t serving in another war torn land, I just don’t understand. My mother is standing with me on the reflection lawn. She doesn’t know how proud I am when she wears her uniform. Why do you cry on ANZAC day? I just don’t understand. My mother isn’t serving in another war torn land, I just don’t understand. He says thank you as he walks with his child, hand in hand. I’m beginning to understand, I should be thanking this man. Why do you cry on ANZAC day? I just don’t understand. My father isn’t serving in another war torn land, I just don’t understand.

WOMEN LIKE US 13th North Lakes Sports Club From 6pm 18+ event

Standup comedians Mandy Nolan and Ellen Briggs join forces in Women Like Us to deliver two hours of rapid fire, sharp, honest, sometimes self-deprecating, somewhat irreverent standup comedy for audiences who love their humour straight from the lip. With seven children between them, parenting and their own reoccurring instances that they call ‘failure to parent’ are certainly the focus of some of their material, but then so is the beauty industry, getting older, getting fatter, strange surgeries, weird TV shows, obsessions, frustrations, and at the end of the day, who unpacks the flipping dishwasher. The two friends have teamed up to bring two hours of stand up to communities they believe would love a dose of Women Like Us. “We’re not rarefied trophy wives,” says Nolan. “We are the kind of women who know how to put up our own shelves! We just don’t dust them.” Doors – 6pm | Dinner – 6.30pm | Show Starts – 8pm 18+ Event only TICKETS: $55pp - Includes a two-course dinner & reserved seating.

ABBALIVE are long-time favourites at Caboolture Sports Club, and every time they perform they are guaranteed crowd pleasers. With live instruments, full choreography, spectacular costumes, and brilliant production, ABBALIVE is without a doubt one of the best ABBA shows to emerge from Australia.

Australian Army Cadets Supporting Indigenous Youth

WORDS: Rebecca Fawcett-Smith

With increasing Indigenous participation in the Australian Army Cadets (AAC) program forming part of AAC’s priorities for 2018, we took the opportunity to speak with to two local Indigenous AAC members about the benefits of the program and how it has affected them personally. Cadet Sergeant Josh Anderson is a descendent of the Wulli Wulli People and the Gangulu People from the Dawson Region of Central Queensland. Joining Military Cadets at age 11, CDTSGT Anderson transferred to the Australian Army Cadets (AAC) 103 ACU Burpengary unit in April 2017. “I’ve always dreamed about going into the army because of the amount of people you meet, the amount of friends that you make, and the life experiences,” explains CDTSGT Anderson. “Also, my uncle was in the Vietnam War, and despite copping a lot when he came back, he’s always had a positive attitude about the [Australian] Defence Force.” Pride in self, and the broad range of skills he has developed with each promotion within the AAC rank system is what CDTSGT Anderson finds most rewarding. “You get to learn something different with each rank. As Lance Corporal, I was more the carer running around making sure everyone was okay. As Cadet Corporal I got to share details, and as Cadet Sergeant I get to really be a leader.” Major (AAC) Trevor Ruthenberg said, “Josh is an outstanding example of what can be when a young person works hard toward a goal. He has a calming way about him, and commands respect from the other cadets because they know he won’t ask them to do something he wouldn’t do himself. He has earned their respect.” Like many ex-cadets before him, CDTSGT Anderson hopes to secure a trade career in the Australia Army after finishing school. “103 ACU is a big family,” said MAJ (AAC) Ruthenberg. “We have cadets with all sorts of heritage, and Josh’s indigenous roots provide our family with the rich aspects of his heritage. But most important, along with his parents, we are so proud of the young man he is turning into.” Officer of Cadets, Captain (AAC) Darryl Petfield, is a Quandamooka Man descending from the Nunukul clan of Minjerribah (now known as North Stradbroke Island). Following in the footsteps of his son, CAPT (AAC) Petfield joined AAC fourteen years ago, and now holds the position of secondin-command (2IC) for 10 Battalion. Prior to taking on the 2IC role earlier this year, CAPT (AAC) Petfield was Training Coordinator of the Battalion, overseeing the delivery of activities including archery, watermanship, navigation and survival. “The activities allow me to be a big kid, however in regards to my own personal growth, it is great being able to pass all my knowledge and skills on to the younger generation,” said CAPT (AAC) Petfield. “And it’s not just knowledge of the Australian Defence Force. It is important life skills like selfdiscipline, leadership and goal setting.” Working nine to five as Indigenous Services Coordinator at Sarina Russo Job Access, CAPT (AAC) Petfield knows firsthand just how favourably employers view job applicants with AAC backgrounds. “I can tell you 100 per cent that having AAC experience helps job seekers. It was one of the reasons my son, who got to the rank of Cadet Sergeant, got his job as an electrician. The company snapped him up because they could see that he could follow orders, and that he had set himself goals to move up through the cadet ranks.” CAPT (AAC) Petfield promotes the benefits of AAC at Moreton Bay Regional Council’s Murri Network Meetings attended by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous government, service providers and community representatives. “By going to the Elders and the community, we can let them know about AAC and how it can support indigenous youth. The friendships and comradeship they gain by participating in ACC activities on weeknights and on the weekend are a big support.”

Headaches Are a Pain in the Neck! WORDS: Zac Cronk, Moreton All Body Care

Headaches are, unfortunately, something that affects many of us, and some of us even daily! So it’s important to understand what type of headache you might suffer from, and if there are steps you can take to be able to prevent it. There are three main types of headache disorders: migraine, tension type headaches (TTH) and cervicogenic headaches (CGH). CGHs account for up to 20% of all headache disorders, often present as moderate to severe pain that starts in the neck, and can last from four hours to a few weeks. People who suffer from CGHs will often have a variety of symptoms such as: • • • • • •

Pain and stiffness in the neck that is aggravated with movement. Tenderness in the neck - often associated with referral pain. Decreased movement at the affected area/s. Headaches that are one-sided and feel that they start in the neck. Pain in areas such as the temples, around the ears, behind the eyes and the back of the head. Nausea, poor concentration and irritability.

CGHs are considered a secondary type headache, meaning that the cause of the headache originates from some place other than in the head. In the case of CGH, the culprit is the upper cervical spine (the top three bones in your neck). Pain is often felt behind the eyes, in the temple region, or at the back of the head. Although it sounds strange that the cause of the headache and where you feel the headache are in different places, it makes a lot of sense when you consider the anatomy behind it. The roots of the nerves connecting to the upper cervical spine share a sensory processing centre in the brain with the trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for carrying information from your brain to your jaw and face, and vice versa. Due to the shared processing centre, pain is felt in the head when it is originally coming from the neck. So what can cause CGH? Injury or dysfunction of the upper cervical spine can occur due to a range of different conditions. Some of these include osteoarthritis, whiplash, sleeping in awkward positions or poor posture. The good news is that many research articles support physiotherapy interventions as a successful treatment option for managing CGH. Treatment is often aimed at improving range of motion at the affected vertebrae, decreasing muscular stiffness, and decreasing pain. Techniques that may be used by your physiotherapist include joint mobilisations, soft tissue massage, stretching, muscular strengthening and retraining, dry needling and other exercises. Your physiotherapist will perform a detailed assessment comprised of an interview and physical examination to determine the cause of the headache. Physiotherapy treatment will usually include a component of manual therapy (hands on treatment) as well as prescribed exercises. If you do suffer from headaches, you don’t need to suffer alone! Say goodbye to nuisance headaches, and come on in for a visit to see what physiotherapy can do for you to sort out your pain in the neck.

But none of those pastimes had anything to do with why he was unhappy. His problem was his new neighbour. A nature lover, she spent most of the daylight hours tending her newly created garden and feeding an ever increasing number of wild birds. “It wouldn’t be so bad if she just fed the lorikeets, maggies and pee wees, but she is now feeding the crows and that really jerks me off!” he said angrily. “Why?” I asked quietly, feeling his anger. “Because the blighters make so much flaming noise. This was a quiet neighbourhood, until she moved in and brought at least half of Queensland’s crow population with her. Caw! Caw! Caw! That’s all you hear from sunup to nightfall,” he growled. With a desire to alleviate Garry’s problem, I decided it was time for a history lesson. “Mate, they are a protected native bird and were here a long time before us white fellers came along,” I said. “So what does that prove?” was Garry’s response, tinged with a certain belligerence. “Well nothing I guess, except that they have as much right as you to be here,” I replied. I had, by now, realised that my attempt at using history to calm Garry’s ruffled feathers had only inflamed his passion. This was further evidenced by his next statement. “I think I’ve got the answer. Have you ever heard the sound of a pair of thongs being sharply slapped together?” he asked. I admitted to not being familiar with that sound. “Well, it’s the same as a gun going off, and that will send them packing!” he laughed gleefully, while rubbing his

hands together. Now I admit, that the thought of Garry running around the neighbourhood, banging a pair of thongs together did, momentarily, hold a certain twisted delight for me. But I hastily brushed it aside and in doing so, decided to employ my next tactic, which I call the David Attenborough disarming approach. “Did you know that there are five species of crow in Australia? The one here is the Torresian Crow, distinguished by its white eyes with blue inner rings. They…” “Those are the blighters!” said Garry, rudely interrupting my best Attenborough delivery. He had stopped me relating why this big, black, intelligent bird was one of the most interesting Australian birds. But with no hope of using Attenborough to solve Garry’s crow dilemma, I simply gave up and let Garry rant on. Like an Einstein about to announce his Theory of Relativity to the world, Garry said, “Mate, I will share my solution with you, which will rid us of the wretched crows. I have purchased a machine from the United States, which emits ultrasonic sound waves and it’s guaranteed to frighten even elephants. It’s state of the art technology. The crows don’t stand a chance!” he smiled confidently. I didn’t see Garry again for a couple of weeks, but when I did, I asked wickedly, “How is your elephant busting machine working?” I instantly regretted my question, when I saw the smile disappear from his face. “The useless thing cost me over a hundred bucks with postage and packing. All it did was make the crows caw louder!” he said downheartedly. But then suddenly his face brightened as if he had remembered something important. “Have you ever heard a pair of thongs being sharply slapped together? It’s just like a gun going off. That will send them packing!”

Are YOU Disaster Ready? WORDS: Kerri-Anne Dooley

Recently I attended a ‘Disaster Preparedness for Older People’ workshop hosted by our very own Moreton Bay Regional Council and Volunteering Queensland. It was an excellent workshop with great reminders to put plans in place before a disaster occurs. With the end of summer, you may wonder why this article? Disasters can occur at any time, not just in summertime. Here’s a quick checklist to see if you are disaster ready: 1. Stay alert – Sign up to receive weather alerts on your mobile, email or landline by registering with Moreton Bay Regional Council. Call their office on 3205 0555 or register online www.moretonbay.qld.gov.au/ moretonalert 2. Arrange an Emergency Kit of essential items - Torch, first aid kit, food, water, mobile phone charger, emergency toiletries, pet food, scan and keep important documents (mortgage, bank, insurance policies, EPOAs, AHDs, wills etc.) with another member of the family. 3. Take action – Secure loose items around yard, outdoor furniture, pets, and livestock. If you need to evacuate, take your Emergency Kit and remember if it’s flooded, forget it! 4. Know your risks – How could a cyclone, severe storm, flood, heatwave or bushfire impact you? 5. Prepare you and your family – Get to know your neighbours and prepare an Emergency Plan that includes checking on vulnerable neighbours, or (if living solo), that you have someone who can check on you. 6. Prepare your property – Check condition of roof and gutters, clear gutters, trim back trees and long grass, check insurance policy for home, contents etc. for storm, flood and bushfire damage, and identify how to turn off mains supply to electricity, gas and water. Other important numbers to keep in your phone or handy to landline: State Emergency Service (SES) 132 500 Energex (fallen powerlines or electric shock) 13 19 62 Energex (loss of power) 13 62 62 QLDTraffic (traffic reports) 13 19 40

LOCAL DINING

REVIEW:

CABOOLTURE SPORTS CLUB

Somewhat hidden behind Harvey Norman on Station Road, Morayfield, the multi-award winning Caboolture Sports Club was founded in February 1994 when six local sporting groups - Softball, Touch Football, Cricket, Dog Obedience, Soccer and Rugby Union collectively formed a single incorporation, and Caboolture Sports Club Inc. was born. Then, on December 9, 1997, the six sporting clubs’ dream was realised when the venue officially opened its doors to the public, and today it offers an extensive range of dining, entertainment and function options. There is always a special to be had with Monthly Meal Deals, Chef Selection Specials and Weekly Members Meal Deals. However, you don’t need to be a member to enjoy the wide selection of tantalising treats from The Bistro’s a-la-carte menu for lunch and dinner. If it is something light you are after, Cafe Oz provides a great range of hot and cold beverages, along with grab-and-go cakes, slices, and light meal options. Both dining options are available seven days a week. Terraza Pizza Cafe brings a taste of classic and gourmet pizzas, light meals and snacks to the table from Wednesday to Sunday, and The Showroom Brasserie is open for dinner on Wednesday and Saturday. But what is great food without great entertainment? This local, affordable venue doesn’t miss a beat with free live music five times a week, with some of the best shows from across the country all in free performances! Daytime and evening shows, promotions, cash bingo, trivia, raffles, not to mention Smirnoff Ladies night every Friday night! If it is a touch of class you are after, the Terrace (Caboolture Sports Club’s award-winning alfresco space), offers an elegant range of entertainment, casual dining, bar and event facilities. Boasting a unique blend of both indoor and outdoor environment, the Terrace captures the best of Queensland’s superb climate, while offering an all-weather venue and a range of amenities, including a private bar with a range of beer, wine, cider, spirits and cocktails, with a food menu and catering packages also available. Perfect for a catch up with friends, birthdays, celebrations, cocktail parties or even corporate events. As if this wasn’t enough, this must-see venue is proud to be a not-for-profit organisation that continues to provide assistance back into the local community through its various sponsorship programs. Each year, the Club gives more than $1 million in both cash and inkind support to a wide range of local community service groups, sporting clubs, individuals, and charities. With The Bistro having recently launched a brand new menu, April is the perfect month to enjoy what the Caboolture Sports Club has to offer.

does your laundry need a makeover? WORDS: Oxmar Properties

ou might never have thought of it before, but your laundry room could be one of the most neglected rooms in your home when it comes to design. With the tips listed below, you can decorate your laundry even if you do not have a lot of money to budget for these improvements, and you will have a beautiful space that is sure to make you feel a lot better about washing clothes too! Start with Paint A little paint can go a long way, especially in a laundry room. Whether you have a large laundry space or just a little room to work with, changing the paint colour on the walls can make the area look amazing. Go for a much different colour than the one you start off with, and remember that pale colours are a good choice for tighter spaces. Do not be afraid to paint an accent wall in a bold colour and work with neutral tones on the other three walls either. Add an Armoire If you do not have a lot of built-in shelving in your laundry room, or if you prefer to keep things a little more out of sight and out of mind, try adding a rustic armoire to the space and install shelves inside it. This way, you will be able to store your laundry items and even your dirty clothes without having to see any mess while the doors to the armoire are closed. You can even paint your armoire to match any style you are trying to recreate in your newly decorated laundry room. Hang Curtains If there are shelves or other messy areas that you want to hide in your laundry room, consider hanging small curtains to cover these problem areas. You can easily make a set of curtains out of any fabric you like by simply hemming one long side and sewing a pocket in the opposite side. Thread these DIY curtains onto a tension rod and suspend them over your shelves, washer and dryer, or storage areas to bring a lot of colour and help de-clutter your space. Whether you have a large laundry room or a small one, you can put these budget decorating ideas to good use and make your space come alive. You will never have to step into a boring, drab laundry room again when you use these ideas to improve yours!

Artisans’ Guild Celebrates 30 Years WORDS: Nicholas Hastie

Continuously supporting and nourishing the creative capabilities of the artistic community, The Artisans’ Guild of Caboolture & District Inc has developed into a prominent organisation amongst the Moreton Bay Region. Celebrating 30 years of establishment this year, the Guild will be hosting a 30th Anniversary Members Exhibition for the month of May, commencing with an Official Opening on Friday, May 4. Originally founded in 1988 as a means for individuals mutually interested in art to improve their skills across a variety of styles and showcase several pieces, for the last three decades the Guild has promoted the development of artistic talent and diversity through an array of resources such as helpful and knowledgeable staff, daily exhibitions, galleries and art classes. “We feel the major accomplishments of the Guild are the bringing together of people of various artistic backgrounds, encouraging them to develop their talents by providing a venue for classes, and exhibiting their work,” says President Jacqui Ferguson. Humbled to be president during the 30th anniversary celebrations, Jacqui is passionate about, “Honouring the work that has been done to get the organisation started, and the years of hard work to keep it going.” The 30th Anniversary Members Exhibition, which debuts at the Official Opening and will run for the course of May, will include ten art sections and nine craft stations. With participants showcasing only the best of their work, the judges will have a tough task ahead. Prizes include trophies for the champion art and craft works, as well as certificates for participants. “Due to the generosity of sponsors, we are able to provide monetary prizes as well as vouchers,” says Jacqui.

art pieces will be available to purchase on the evening, with entry to this memorable event only $10.00. The anniversary celebrations don’t stop there. “We are also having a market in the grounds of The Old Bay Road Cultural Centre with the other occupants of the complex on Saturday, May 19th,” explains Jacqui. Sausage sizzles, stalls, music and a morning tea shop will be available for patrons to enjoy, while they explore the wonderful gallery and chat to the friendly staff. With membership ever rising, the Guild is as active as ever, offering educative programs throughout the week including watercolour painting, children’s art lessons, drawing classes, craft groups, painting groups and imaginative art classes by various experienced, friendly artists. Future building improvements scheduled for the Guild’s Old Bay Road, Burpengary site will allow for the potential of more workshops. “The future of the Guild is very promising,” says Jacqui. “The generous Moreton Bay Regional Council is in the process of calling tenders to extend the Gallery, so in 2019 we will have two classrooms, more space for the hanging of art, a bigger display area for craft, plus a new kitchen”. For more details visit https://artisansguild.org.au/ or the Artisans’ Guild of Caboolture and District Inc Facebook page.

Approximately 130 guests are expected at the Official Opening, where wine and cheese, juice, tea and coffee will be served, along with a 30th anniversary cake. Various

Get Your Life Back!

WORDS: Katrina Webb, Acupuncturist at Zen Chi Natural Therapies

The American College of Physicians (ACP) has released a study recommending acupuncture above painkillers for the treatment of back pain! Why? A modern scientific explanation is that the insertion of the tiny needles into acupuncture points has an effect on the nervous system. Your nervous system then releases chemicals and hormones into your muscles and tissues; these chemicals can change how you experience pain and stimulate your body’s own natural healing abilities. People frequently ask if acupuncture hurts; this is the answer – Acupuncture needles are very, very small, not much thicker than a hair on your head. The insertion is quick and painless, nothing like having blood taken or getting an injection. In fact, you could fit 30-40 acupuncture needles into the barrel of a hypodermic needle! They are also sterile and disposed of after one use for your safety. A treatment utilising acupuncture, cupping therapy and massage can help you get back to what you love doing faster, whether it be the footy field, lifting your kids, or just moving without crippling pain. So, if you want to get a decent night’s sleep again, try acupuncture!

How to end your Words: Gina Wells

A tenancy agreement is a legally binding agreement that can only be ended in certain ways. An agreement may end: • • • • • • • • • • •

When a fixed term has ended (correct notice has been given) During a periodic agreement (correct notice has been given) If the property manager/owner and tenant mutually agree in writing to end a fixed term If there is a serious unremedied breach (e.g. for unpaid rent, damage to the property, illegal use of property, property owner fails to maintain property) If a serious breach of the agreement occurs in the same way more than twice in one year (QCAT order) If the tenant has not complied with a QCAT order If the tenant has abandoned the property If the property is to be sold (and the tenant is on a periodic agreement) If a mortgagee is in possession of the property When a sole tenant dies, or QCAT order ends the agreement (e.g. for excessive hardship)

The person ending the agreement must use the correct form and comply with the appropriate notice period. FORMS Tenant: Notice of intention to leave (Form 13) or Resident leaving (Form R13) for rooming accommodation. Property manager/owner: Notice to leave (Form 12) or Notice to leave – Rooming accommodation (Form R12) for rooming accommodation. Ending the agreement early A tenancy agreement is a legally binding agreement. If it is broken, compensation may need to be paid. If a tenant or property manager/owner ends a fixed term agreement before the end date without grounds (i.e. without sufficient reason) they are breaking the agreement. This is also known as breaking the lease. A tenant cannot be made to leave the property during a fixed term agreement without an order from QCAT (e.g. excessive hardship). However, should the tenant agree to the property manager/owner’s request to leave early, they may negotiate a compensation payment (e.g. moving costs). Any agreement should be put in writing. Leaving the property The tenant must leave the property in the same condition as when they moved in (except for fair wear and tear). All the keys must be returned (even extra keys the tenant had cut). The Exit condition report – general tenancies (Form 14a) and Refund of rental bond (Form 4) should also be completed. Bond refunds Agreed refund • There must be an agreement on how the bond should be paid. • Everyone listed on the bond signs the refund form. • Refunds are generally processed within 2-3 working days.

I am a dog owner and I love my dog. He’s a Dalmatian and his name is Bertie. Bertie is ten years old and is a large, clumsy, loveable, untrained fellow. He is a friendly sort of bloke, particularly towards children. But he develops a personality shift when we walk him on the lead. In particular, towards other dogs. It’s almost as though he says, “I’m restricted in this harness you have put me in. How can I defend myself? So I am going to act, mean. Understand?” Now, we have considered freeing Bertie from his shackles and it does have its pluses. Firstly, the freedom would please Bertie immensely. Free to roam and be able to detect all of those mysterious smells that dogs eternally find so appealing, Bertie would be in seventh heaven! It would also make our walk more enjoyable as well. No more sore arms, caused by joints being painfully yanked out of their sockets, while trying to keep Bertie in check. Conversely, an unleashed Bertie could create havoc in the neighbourhood. With unfenced gardens, he would want to explore and chase the neighbour’s ginger cat. He would certainly want to `face to face’ challenge the cattle dog at number 96. That’s the one who always barks and growls at him. He might even take a liking towards that peaceful, little Pekinese, who gently strolls with her mistress on their daily walk. There is another reason why Bertie would enjoy his freedom and we and our neighbours would not. He would be free to wee and poo wherever he liked, causing us endless, stressful minutes, watching for the ubiquitous squatting posture, so classically Bertie and then searching for those small Council black poo bags. Then we must not forget the Council rangers who occasionally patrol the neighbourhood, looking for unleashed dogs and their wayward owners. The resultant hefty fines, have made many a dog owner’s eyes water. Training could be an option, but what’s that saying about teaching old dogs new tricks? So after much consideration and to the relief of the general neighbourhood, Bertie will have to remain shackled on his walk around the suburbs. Unless we take him to the local dog park. Now, there’s a good idea! Photo: ‘Bertie’ by Barry Tuton
