Employment program going the extra mile

Parking plan threatens ‘Mum and Dad businesses’

WITH 40 per cent of Dubbo’s unemployed made up of Aboriginal people, one of the city’s largest employers is taking steps to alter the statistics by using a strategic approach.

Fletcher International Exports introduced their FACES program as a way to break down barriers and get more indigenous people into the workforce.

The company’s HR and compliance manager Maddy Herbert has been involved in rolling out the program.

“We have a real aim of getting people into the workforce and focused, with a view to keeping them going long-term,” she said.

VICTORIA Street neighbourhood shopping precinct tenants are up in arms over the Roads and Maritime Services’ intention to widen the road, putting parking in front of their shops into doubt.

City West Plaza developer Kath Skinner told Dubbo Photo News she was the last to find out after RMS representatives had visited her tenants last week, and advised them they could lose their parking. Mrs Skinner’s question to the RMS is: “What are you going to do about accessibility to the shops?”

December 6-12, 2018 Dubbo Photo News donations, but most people who ask are in need, some are desperate for help.

We’ll follow this up with more information in the coming weeks here in Dubbo Photo News.

DUBBO CITY LIFE Comment by TIM PANKHURST MANAGING EDITOR

Mel wins a Trike Adventure

Where to find help for a stranger in need I was out for a walk a few days ago and was approached by an older gent who asked for my help. He was polite and softly spoken, and explained that he was from out of town and wondered if I could give him a few dollars.

I was blocks from work or home, and had nothing on me, other than my keys. I explained that I couldn’t help with money, but that I was sure there were some good places down town who probably do offer some help for people in his situation.

Thinking I might not believe his story, he rummaged through the small pouch he was carrying and produced some paperwork. I noticed a Centrelink logo on one piece of paper, but assured him I didn’t need to see all that and so he popped it back into the pouch.

I shared this story with another local who, hesitatingly, suggested you do have to be careful because there are some people about who are just trying to ‘con’ some money.

But I wanted to believe this bloke on the street, and wanted to steer him in the direction of one of the local organisations that could give him the help he needed.

But who? I rattled off a couple of wellknown community names, but wasn’t 100 per cent sure which would be best to help him.

Whilst it’s unusual, it’s not the first time I’ve been in this situation in Dubbo, and I’m guessing I’m not the only person who would like to help when someone asks for a few dollars.

I made a few calls this week to find out

Watching cricket from “The Hill�: The works done this year at Victoria Park No.2 Oval include this pair of outdoor chairs, build on a slight rise overlooking the new picket fence.

which organisations can help, so that you and me both will know what to suggest the next time we’re asked for money.

The Dubbo Neighbourhood Centre (DNC) is an excellent starting point for community information, where you can access a very long list of local community organisations and how each can help in all sorts of situations. That list is available by calling the DNC on 6883 2300 or heading to their website www.dnc.org.au.

They were able to suggest to me several local organisations that help in situations like the one I’ve described above. One was Emmanuel Care Centre at 177 Brisbane Street opposite the RSL. I spoke to one of the staff there who confirmed they can provide emergency food relief along with EPA vouchers, a State Government system that can help pay for things like electricity in dire situations, but there is an eligibility process that needs to be followed.

While no one organisation in Dubbo that I’ve been made aware of offers 24/7 food relief, between several local groups, including the Emmanuel Care Centre, many of the hours each week are covered.

And don’t forget there’s the Community Kitchen at Holy Trinity each Friday night.

I know a few people who volunteer there and I’m sure more volunteers would be welcome.

So where does the food come from that places like the Emmanuel Care Centre are able to provide to people who can’t afford a meal? As you’ll read in one of our special features in today’s Dubbo Photo News, Village Bakery is one of the local businesses that donates left-over but still good food to these causes. It’s a great initiative which stops food wastage – a real win-win situation.

As one person I spoke to about this said, unfortunately, there are some out there who try to make a living out of asking for

CONGRATULATIONS to Mel Dait who is the lucky winner of the Dubbo Photo News/Trike Adventures First Christmas Lights Tour Giveaway. The competition, which has been running over the past few weeks, asked the question, “What would Santa like for Christmas?�

Mel’s answer was: “Santa would like to see every child happy on Christmas Day.�

And so would we all!

How an election works WE don’t give ourselves enough credit for the political system we enjoy in Australia.

Columnist Greg Smart has written a very interesting piece this week, addressed openly to the people of the USA, which explains the differences between our system of voting and theirs. Greg is correct – ours is much better, making for a better democracy. Make sure you read Greg’s column because it also gives an insight into what happens when the Aussie polls close at 6pm each election day.

Another nice addition I GAVE a plug here a few weeks ago to some of the new works happening around town, particularly by Council staff. And Dubbo Photo News’ sports team of Geoff Mann and Mel Pocknall have been following the changes happening at Lady Cutler, and Victoria Park No.2 and No.3 Ovals.

One addition we haven’t shown our readers yet is this semi-shaded outdoor ‘lounge’ (pictured) which has been built on the Dubbo Bowling Club side of No.2 Oval, near the WPCC. It adds a great little feature to the area. Thumbs up. feedback@dubbophotonews.com.au

Dubbo Photo News December 6-12, 2018 DROUGHT SUPPORT

PAGE 3 PROFILE

Sydney Muslim community digs deep for western farmers

Emma Stevenson, Village Bakery Store Manager Emma is part of the well-known Stevenson family of bakers. She grew up with the family business...

How do you remember Village Bakery as a child?

I’ve been here since I was a first born. I remember the ladies that all worked here. A lot of them have now gone through uni and have been married and had children. They still come in here today to see me now that I have grown up through the ranks, because we have had such a tight team.

I remember Baker Bill, our little mascot that we had in the shop. I remember all my friends at school coming in and saying ‘oh yeah, I know that’s the best bakery’. I remember coming in when I was little with my parents putting up Christmas decorations at Christmas time and putting up Easter decorations when I was too little and I couldn’t do it. I remember falling asleep on the chairs and watching my dad bake the bread and bring home the new specials, the new cakes that they had come up with, the new pies. And it was great.

Every person that we have work here is an extended part of our family, and we call ourselves the Village Family.

So it’s beautiful, we have a great team.

Did you always picture yourself going on to work with the family business?

Yes, always. There was never really anything else I wanted to do. I’ve watched my parents from a really young age, and as I’ve grown up, I’ve been able to be under their wings a little bit and follow their leadership.

I have developed business skills from watching different things that they have done and how they have grown as business owners themselves.

So I’ve always looked at it and thought ‘that’s all I want to do with my life’. It’s such an amazing thing that our family has and I would never want to be anywhere else.

What was your first role when you became involved within the business?

I started when I was 11 folding cake boxes out the back. I started from the very bottom.

And then when I was 14, I went behind the counter. I started to learn the POS systems and the back of house kind of things. And then I stepped up the same way as every single person that comes and works here.

I became a Crew Trainer, I then went up to a Trainee Supervisor, Supervisor, Assistant Manager, and now Store Manager. I’ve been Manager now for about six years. And I love that we did that because everyone else has more respect for me.

I know every job, I know the ins and outs of everything. If I had jumped the ranks, I wouldn’t have the knowledge to react to things that need to be sorted.

What is it like working in a family business?

It’s funny. You wouldn’t really understand it unless you were in it. I would say it is actually a blessing. Taylor Stevenson, my younger

By JOHN RYAN

brother, is my Assistant Manager, so he is my right hand and we don’t agree on everything, we have different views. But I think that is what makes our business so special too, because what one lacks the other one makes up in.

What do you like most about this business?

If anything, I think it is the people. I love the Dubbo community.

We work with 150 different people. I have 50 here (at the Darling Street bakery) and there are 100 up at our baking site, so it’s massive. I spend 90 per cent of my time here, but I do spend ten per cent of my time at Earlyrise as well, so getting to know those people is really special.

Tell us about the charities that Village Bakery is involved with.

Every night we donate all the leftover food to different charities. There are some churches and a few different organised soup kitchens. I volunteer once a month at a soup kitchen on a Friday night. My partner does as well so we both do it together.

We’ve just been in the Buy A Bale program, so we have just donated a dollar from every loaf of bread sold in a month, which

amounted to over $5000.

We always do breast cancer and homelessness campaigns, and we always have a charity box on the counter. So we try and give back to the community as best we can as they give to us so well.

What is it like being a young woman in the workforce?

In certain situations, I would say yes it has been challenging. With my family, the respect is still there and it doesn’t make a difference.

But some people when they first meet me think I am a little bit younger and don’t realise that I have had all the experience and the family background.

I get a little bit underestimated and then when I go and open my mouth, usually they go ‘yep, okay, she knows what she’s talking about, let’s take her seriously’ (laughs). It hasn’t stopped me in any way.

I just love working here. It has been our family history for 100 years. My great grandfather was delivering goods off the back of a horse and cart and now we get to sell the same goods 100 years on to the Dubbo community. What a special thing to be able to be a part of.

WHEN it comes to drought appeals to help stricken farmers, Australia’s Muslim community hasn’t been in the headlines but, from a standing start on August 18, charitable organisation Human Appeal Australia launched its Farmers Drought Appeal and raised $90,000 in just a couple of months.

And western graziers were the beneficiaries.

Human Appeal has a long-standing relationship with Dubbo-based Fletcher International Exports and so the charity group was keen to distribute hay bought from the money they raised to farmers in this region.

Cobar Shire Council has a sister city relationship with Canterbury Bankstown Council where a lot of the money was raised, so the country shire helped with allocations to farmers in that area.

Fletchers organised a number of Warren businesses to identify those farmers most in need and then draw 10 names out of a hat.

The Human Appeal team said they were concerned not only about the future of Australia’s sheepmeat industry during such a long and torrid drought, but also about the welfare of the graziers who produce the meat they buy.

Human Appeal chairman Riyad Qasim and the City of Canterbury Bankstown Councillor Bilal El-Hayek were among the crew who headed out west to ensure the donations had a human face to them.

affected the most in Cobar and Warren.

“The vouchers enabled them to collect their bales of hay instantly and the farmers expressed their gratitude and appreciation to the generous donors who contributed to this great cause,” Mr Qasim said.

Rusty Mitchel, a farmer of Cobar, thanked Human Appeal’s donors for standing with farmers not only financially but also for emotional support during the prolonged drought and rural hardship.

He said he appreciated the fact that, hundreds of kilometres away, someone cared and stood beside him during these tough times.

Mr Qasim said he was gratified at the support from Sydney’s Muslim community.

“Many thanks to our generous community for showing solidarity with our Aussie farmers by supporting the cause and helping many farmers who were at the brink of losing their farms due to the severe drought,” Mr Qasim said.

“We highly appreciate our community’s contribution.

“With their generosity, they are not just helping farmers, in fact, they are helping their own families and the whole Australian community,” he said.

MOVEMBER

HEALTH

Mo’s are getting men talking about mental health

By JOHN RYAN

ADAM Wells was crossing Macquarie Street this week when his mustache attracted the attention of Dubbo Photo News.

That led to the obvious question about whether he was involved in Movember, and that sparked a conversation.

“I lost my father seven years ago from cancer so it’s partly to do with remembering him, but also to do with raising awareness that it can strike at any age,” Mr Wells said.

“Obviously there’s the cancer side of it, but also there’s the big push for rural mental health at the moment that I think we as Dubbo guys need to be aware of.

“Whether it’s affecting ourselves or whether it’s affecting one of our friends, (it’s important) just to be there at any time to be a part of their lives, to reach out for each other and make sure we’re looking out for each other – and looking after ourselves.”

The Dubbo real estate agent said Movember was a spark of genius, given the way it has got people talking about issues that have

lain buried for generations.

“Absolutely, and I think that’s the biggest part of it – you get bagged out for having a silly mustache but it’s that deeper fact that there’s people struggling in our community, whether it’s their own health, whether its friends and family, whether it’s separation, things like that,” Mr Wells said.

“Whatever is happening I think if we’re looking outside ourselves, if we’re looking out for each other, it can make a big difference just saying g’day, saying hello, checking in on how friends and family are doing – it’s important.”

Mr Wells said he’s been surprised at just how much reaction his mo’ has been creating.

“I forget that it’s on there quite a bit because I obviously don’t look in the mirror too much, but I think I do get that reaction,” he said.

“There’s so many people doing different things now to help.

We’ve got Tradies In Sight, we’ve got different people looking out for others, and I think that male stereotype is being broken every day.” He said it’s now becoming the norm to see one guy having

Dubbo Base rates well with patients

a conversation with another guy about how they’re going.

“Being there for each other is so important,” Mr Wells told Dubbo Photo News.

He set up his own page online and raised about $1000. His last minute strategy was to film a short video clip with his kids asking for people to give their dad more money so he can shave it off.

“My wife will be pretty happy for it to come off as well,” Mr

Wells added.

“There are lots of people doing a little bit, which all adds up – both financially and also for collective awareness raising.

“There’s a lot of celebrities that are doing it – the cricketers, footballers and things like that – which is brilliant, and I think the money is great, but it’s almost secondary to the conversations.

“But any money that’s raised is going to a good cause,” he said.

THE vast majority of young people treated at Dubbo Base Hospital rate their experience as either good or very good, according to the latest annual report from the Bureau of Health Information (BHI) released yesterday.

The survey conducted throughout 2017 found that 94 per cent of 8 to 17-year-olds rated the care they received while at Dubbo Base as good or very good, the top two categories in the survey.

Parents of children under 8 were asked the same series of questions, with 93 per cent ranking Dubbo Base Hospital as good or very good.

Respondents were also asked how they would respond if friends or family asked about their hospital experience and while 66 per cent said they would speak highly of the Dubbo hospital, 6 per cent said they would be critical, with the remainder sitting on the fence.

BHI Chief Executive, Dr Diane Watson, said most children and adolescents had positive experiences of care in NSW public hospitals.

Dr Watson noted that 16 and 17-year-olds would like to be more engaged with the health professionals providing their care.

Awakening Health Dubbo would like to thank all of our wonderful clients for another fantastic year. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, we look forward to seeing you all in 2019.

Company announces it will upgrade Renshaw-McGirr Way/Suntop Road intersection

Community meets solar developer

A PACKED hall showed how concerned Suntop area residents are about a giant solar farm proposed for the area.

More than 70 people were at Wellington’s Civic Centre last Tuesday to garner information and get answers from representatives of Photon Energy, the company that has already proposed building a solar farm in the Suntop area and is now planning a second one.

There was resentment that local residents had to organise the forum, rather than Photon running the community consultation in a way residents felt was real consultation.

One of the organisers, Sam Frogley, said he was pleased with the turnout.

“The wider community has not had any consultation from Photon, so I am glad that we were able to get the word out there,” Mr Frogley said.

Dubbo Photo News contacted Photon Energy and was told in a statement that the

company undertook a number of community consultations.

“An initial public meeting was held on August 30, 2017, at the Arthurville Rural Fire Shed,” the statement said. “From there Photon Energy visited Suntop for oneon-one meetings with neighbouring properties on September 14, 2017, November 23, 2017, and February 5-7, 2018.

“The project was also publicly exhibited by NSW State Planning from June 6, 2018, to July 6, 2018,” the company stated.

After last week’s meeting, Mr Frogley said, “We didn’t really get any substantive answers, but it was great to hear so many relevant concerns raised.”

One major concern is the sheer size of the development, with the footprint of it and another proposed solar project just north of Wellington, more than a third larger than the Wellington township itself.

Other concerns raised included increased traffic and also plans for any bushfire emergencies.

“Fires was definitely a big one,” Mr Frogley said.

“As RFS volunteers, will we be expected to go in and fight an electrical fire?” he questioned.

“The extra traffic on the roads, which will include up to 40 B-Doubles on the Renshaw McGirr Way and Suntop Road daily for two years, was also a big problem.

“I think everyone that was there agreed that these roads are just not suitable for that amount of traffic,” he said.

Project Manager for the Suntop solar farms Nick Guzowski said the compa-

ny has heard the community concerns and is taking them on board.

The company sent Dubbo Photo News the traffic and bushfire studies it’s already undertaken and said, along with other required studies, these are evolving and still underway, which is normal for a project of this size at this point in the planning process.

“We have listened to concerns and I’m pleased to announce that we will upgrade the intersection of Renshaw-McGirr Way and Suntop Road,” Mr Guzowski said.

“We are working with Council to ensure that the roads are maintained in safe condition for residents and trucks during the construction period; we are committed to repairing any damage caused because of construction vehicles.

“Canadian Solar and Photon Energy are also instituting a driver code of conduct during construction to ensure heavy vehicles avoid these roads during the busy school bus pickup and drop-off times,” he said.

Mr Frogley urged other locals who could be affected by the development to make submissions to the State Government, voicing their objections. “At the

end of the day, they’re the ones who will make the final decision,” he said.

One resident who contacted Dubbo Photo News claimed Photon had put certain conditions on their representatives attending last week’s meeting, a claim Photon refuted.

“Photon Energy did not set conditions... We did not require questions to be submitted earlier, however we did ask that if there was anything that required a detailed response if those questions could be supplied earlier then we could properly answer them,” a company spokesperson said.

“The company did request the meeting was not recorded... as we wanted to ensure an environment in which people didn’t feel intimidated by cameras or recording devices to ask questions,” the statement said.

Mr Guzowski called the meeting a success. “We wanted the community meeting to be a genuine and fair process, to hear all of their concerns, take on board the feedback and respond in a considered manner. “(We) will continue to provide opportunities for the community to raise their concerns,” he said.

Because the Dubbo Region is the best place to build your career

BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS

Employment program going the extra mile

By NATALIE HOLMES WITH 40 per cent of Dubbo’s unemployed made up of Aboriginal people, one of the city’s largest employers is taking steps to alter the statistics by using a strategic approach.

Fletcher International Exports introduced their FACES (Fletcher Aboriginal Culture Employment Strategy) program as a way to break down barriers and get more indigenous people into the workforce.

The company’s HR and compliance manager Maddy Herbert has been involved in rolling out the pro-

gram since its inception six months ago.

“What we’re aiming to do is to get local people, particularly indigenous people, into the workforce with the support they need,” she said.

Miss Herbert explained that the company offers traineeships in meat processing and their aim is to retain employees long-term.

“We have a real aim of getting people into the workforce and focused, with a view to keeping them going long-term,” she said.

“We’ve offered support in different ways – by helping them find accom-

modation, transport, even childcare.

“When you start a new job, your whole life changes. For the longterm unemployed, existing support is cut off. We offer support through that critical period, they can come for help to apply for private housing, transport, getting their licence.

“We are doing everything we can to assist people in any way we can, to provide support and mentoring, to get them through the door and

keep them here. The idea is to keep them going long-term,” Ms Herbert told Dubbo Photo News.

“What’s good for the FACES project is good for the whole workforce.”

Earlier in the year, the Federal Government announced the Tailored Assistance Employment Grants as part of its Indigenous Advancement Strategy to connect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to jobs and more Australians into work.

HR and compliance manager at Fletcher’s, Maddy Herbert, has been involved in rolling out the FACES program since the beginning. “We have a real aim of getting people into the workforce and focused, with a view to keeping them going long-term,” Ms Herbert said.

FASCINATING CAREERS

Following in the family footsteps

By NATALIE HOLMES AFTER undertaking a degree in commerce and a post-graduate certificate in professional legal studies, Laura Carter has embarked on qualifications in embalming which will enhance her role as a funeral director.

In conversations with new people, the 24-yearold said they are often surprised by her career choice as the manager of Shakespeare Funerals.

“Usually they say that it’s really interesting,” she said.

“And I have to agree. No two days are the same. You never know what’s going to happen.”

Although she never 24-year-old Laura Carter admits many people are surprised when she tells them she is a funeral director. PHOTO: WENDY MERRICK/FILE

knows what each day will bring, Miss Carter is more than familiar with her surroundings.

She knows about all aspects of the business, from making funeral arrangements to client relations – even stonemasonry which she learned from a very young age.

“Mum and Dad bought Gilgandra Funerals when I was just 12 months old,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“Before I went to school, I was concreting!”

Miss Carter’s parents Paul and Barbara also own W Larcombe and Son Funerals, H Logue and Sons, Russell Everingham Funerals and Gilgandra Funerals.

While she toyed with the idea of becoming a pilot or a chef, her instinct was to follow in her family’s

footsteps.

“I always thought that one day I would take over; that one day I would come back here.

“I have grown up doing it, it’s second nature. It was always something that I wanted to do. And studying embalming is really interesting and will only widen what I can do.”

While Miss Carter admits that being a funeral director can be personally challenging, it is also very uplifting.

“It can be an emotionally difficult industry. But that’s what makes it the most rewarding, being able to help families through the most difficult time in their lives.

And we do genuinely care about our clients.

“The littlest thing you do can mean the most,” she said.

PROFILE ON FLETCHER’S

Courtney’s fast track to HR role

By JOHN RYAN AT just 23, Courtney Power’s fledgling career has already taken some twists and turns she was totally unprepared for – but she’s embraced them wholeheartedly.

In less than a year at Fletcher International Exports, she’s already had so many different jobs she finds it difficult to keep track.

“I’ve just moved into the Work, Health and Safety (WHS) office, so I’m helping out doing whatever it is that I’m told to do,” Ms Power said.

“I started in accounts in an admin kind of role and accounts payable with Colleen and then I did a bit of payroll with Brett and a bit of security for a new system. Then about a month ago I got moved over to the grain terminal and I worked with Joe there for three weeks and then it was like, we need you back over here.

“It is exciting, every day’s different which helps, it makes you want to get up and come in,” she said.

Before starting at Fletcher’s she thought an abattoirs was simply a place to cut up sheep into eating-sized portions.

“I never pictured this side of it. With every other business you have the main productive section and then you have offices in all different areas, but this, it’s all in one so it’s a different experience,” Ms Power said.

“I definitely did not think I would be in accounts. I did an animal science degree at uni and they needed someone to fill a role so I gave it a go, and within a few weeks I think I was pretty much on top of it.

“It’s a great culture at work and it definitely gives you a lot more confidence thinking that other people believe that you can

do things, even though you don’t think it yourself,” she said.

Ms Power is grateful she’s being pushed to her ability, to jump in the deep end and learn roles she’d never have thought about applying for. It has given her an incredibly broad skills base already for someone who began their fulltime working life less than one year ago.

“Everything’s tight-knit here, if you’re in one position and a role pops up and Melissa (Fletcher) or someone thinks you’ll be good at it, they just shoot you over there and say, ‘Give it a go and if it’s not for you, let me know and you can go somewhere else.’ They’re here to fit you to the role, not the other way round, it’s fabulous,” Ms Power said.

“I love it in HR, there’s a great feel here in this building, you get to communicate with the workers every day, help them out as much

Within the first year of her job at Fletcher’s, Courtney Power has been able to try her hand at multiple roles. She’s now in an HR position. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS.

as we can, I really enjoy doing that. If I can fix someone’s problems it makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something in that day, it’s nice.”

Courtney said with school life ending for so many locals at this time of year, she can’t encourage them enough to wander out to the northside of town and knock

# DUBBO JOBS COUNTER

on Fletcher’s door, even if it’s just to make some casual cash before heading off to uni.

“I’d definitely say come in and have a go, there’s something here for everyone and if it’s not the first or second job you try, it might be the 10th or 11th, but you’ll definitely find it,” she said.

Ashleigh Day Age: 20 Status: Happily single What’s your job? Baking Apprentice at Earlyrise Baking Company. I’m the first female apprentice in the bread section, and I would love for another female apprentice to join the team!

Have you always wanted to be a baking apprentice? I’ve always loved baking – I used to bake with my mum and Nanna all the time.

Mum makes an amazing marble cheesecake. I have tried to help her, but I think I will stick with the bread side of things (laughs).

I never really thought baking could be a career, until I saw a position advertised by Earlyrise Baking. I originally applied to be in the cake section, with no previous experience in a workplace, and was unsuccessful. An opportunity came

up to work at the Woolshed Café in Peak Hill, which is the area I live in. I knew that they get orders from Earlyrise, and I thought that would look good on my resume when the next opportunity arose to apply at Earlyrise again. It was an amazing little café. And then the position of Bread Apprentice came up and I got the job at Earlyrise!

Best part of your job? I just think the people are amazing. I really do think that they are a second family.

They are all so supportive. And not just in my section – from packing to cake making, they are all amazing.

What are you most looking forward to as you continue training? I’m really, really excited to learn how to make sourdough. My Production Supervisor, Nathan, has me set the sourdough culture most nights now.

Sweet or savoury? I’m going to

have to go sweet, just not jam!

Best advice your mother gave you? She’s given me a lot of advice!

Do what makes your soul happy.

If you could be invisible for one day, what would you do? I don’t think I’d want to be invisible, I bump into people enough!

Favourite quote/saying? It’s not about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.

Something you can’t live without? My dogs, I love my dogs. And my family. In that order!

Naughtiest thing you did when you were a child? I used to do prank calls when I was about five.

And one day they called back. They got in contact with my mum and I got into trouble over that!

MUSIC FESTIVAL

IN BRIEF

Beatlemania coming to Dubbo

Three problem residential walkways to close

By JOHN RYAN

BEATLEMANIA is coming to Dubbo next month, and while the City of Dubbo Turf Club’s Tunes on the Track is a stand alone event, club GM Vince Gordon is hoping it will inspire a full-blown ‘60s Festival for Dubbo.

“My job is predominantly about racing and training racehorses, but we thought we’d dip our toe in the water for a music event.

I’ve got a big belief that this facility lends itself to such an event, and January 19 we’ve got Tunes on the Track and the Beatlez Go Bush coming here,” Mr Gordon told Dubbo Photo News.

“We’ve had excellent support from the state government and locally as well. We’ve had a lot of interest in the event and people are quite excited that they’re seeing this coming to Dubbo.

“My vision is that it becomes an annual event and hopefully one day we’ll see Beatlemania hit Dubbo that week in between Elvis at Parkes and the Country Music Festival in Tamworth – what traditionally is a quiet time in Dubbo for visitation. We’re looking to fill that gap with an event that can grow into something quite large,” he said.

The club is keeping ticket prices at a very low rate to ensure it’s within everyone’s affordability, something Mr Gordon believes is crucial to making the event a success.

Jockeys as Bea atles: Four Dubbo jockeyss recreate the cover of o the classic Beatles “Abbey Road” album, crossing Dubb b o’s Macquarie S reeet to St o help l promote next month’s Tune n s on n the Track.

DUBBO Regional Council has resolved to permanently close three walkways across the city due to safety concerns raised by local residents.

The laneways between 36 and 38 Twickenham Drive, East Dubbo; between 11 and 12 Kookaburra Close, South Dubbo; and between Sturt Circle and Davidson Drive, East Dubbo will be closed with arrangements currently being made with neighbouring residents to dispose of the unused land.

Their closure has been made on the basis of ongoing anti-social and criminal behaviour.

“I would encourage anyone who has a laneway near them that they are uncomfortable with, contact Council and we will look at closing them,” Mayor Ben Shields said.

P TO: DU PHO D BBO PHOTO OT NEWS W

It’s just $30 for a single ticket or $70 for a family of four, and that includes a warm-up performance by stand-out Sydney band “The Breakaways”.

He said the Turf Club is working to get the best utilisation of its facilities, which is a key objective of the board, and the belief is that Tunes on the Track will be an event that the community can get behind and the city can get behind and support. The Turf Club is keen to play a role in helping establish a festival in Dubbo.

“The Beatles’ music is a legacy that lives on because there’s a

lot of music out there these days that’s been reproduced that the young generations recognise but maybe don’t recognise it as the Beatles. That’ll certainly be one of our targets, to get the younger generations here, so they learn that it’s the Beatles’ music, and to have a good time to that Mersey Beat,” Mr Gordon said.

“The feeling is really positive and I’m very hopeful it’ll be a great community event (that will) grow into a bigger event and be part of the fabric of the community.

“In five years’ time I’d like to see an event that progresses to a full-

blown festival, a week-long celebration of Mersey Beat. I’d like to see people up and down the street with Beatles’ wigs on, EH Holdens driving around with The Beatles in them, the motels chock-a-block full of fans, the hotels all playing Beatles’ music, attracting people from outside the area to Dubbo in what’s traditionally a quiet time,” he said.

ROBYN Lappa’s idea to hold a monster sale to assist her fundraising campaign for the annual MS Walk and Fun Run has turned into a mammoth, with donations far exceeding her expectations.

“This will be our fifth year,” she said.

“My two nieces in Sydney started the walking team, naming it Team MarLap after myself and their Aunty Marion.

Attended by thousands of community-minded participants each year, the Sydney event has an atmosphere which Mrs Lappa described as fantastic.

“My husband walks beside me, my kids and their partners, my nieces, nephews and sister.

“It’s a really good feeling.

“The first year, my husband pushed around an empty wheelchair because I was very motivated.”

With the event coming up in Autumn next year, Mrs Lappa decided to host a big garage sale to assist with fundraising.

Due to overwhelming support, the sale has outgrown her garage idea, and she is now searching for a larger venue.

“People are bringing stuff in, I’ve been picking stuff up, the response has been so amazing.”

Two rooms in Mrs Lappa’s house are filled with all kinds of objects, both new and pre-loved, including crockery and cutlery, clothing and shoes galore.

“Everything but the kitchen sink,” she laughed.

With complete strangers and business houses among the donors, Mrs Lappa is feeling buoyed by their generosity.

“It’s brilliant,” she said.

YOUR STARS

E RENOVATION RESCU RK AT WAHROONGA PA Main Photo by KEN SMITH As part of ongoing play park renewals happening around Dubbo, Wahroonga Park on Macquarie Street in South Dubbo is currently getting a makeover.

As reported in Dubbo Photo News on November 22, the Wahroonga Park upgrade has some exciting new features – including a flying fox!

Pictured is the work underway (main photo) and an artist’s impression of how the park will look when finished. The design was chosen by the community.

ARIES: Time will be in short supply this week, so you’ll have to choose between business and pleasure. Finding a balance will allow you to bring harmony to your life.

TAURUS: There’s travel on the horizon. Even if you’re not leaving for a few months, it’s not too early to start preparing things like passports and vaccines.

GEMINI: Expect some minor annoyances this week. It’s time to take care of things you’ve been putting off. You’ll be able to have some fun once you’ve accomplished what you’ve been postponing.

CANCER: You’ll close a big deal that will change your life.

Your perseverance will allow you to reach great heights, at work and in your personal life. Your audacity and warrior’s spirit will be on display.

LEO: You have a lot of work to do and many small details to take care of, both at work and at home. Let your loved ones help you so that you can take some time to appreciate your life. You’ll adopt a new philosophy that aligns with your personal values.

VIRGO: You’ll be very popular this week. You’ll be the only one who can accomplish an important task, and your superiors will recognise the work you do.

LIBRA: Breaking old routines will be good for you and your relationships. Say yes to invitations from friends; you’ll be pleasantly surprised, especially if you’re single.

SCORPIO: If you have any interest in real estate, you may make some profitable decisions this week. You’ll want to redecorate your home right before Christmas to make a good impression.

SAGITTARIUS: You’ll want to say what’s on your mind, but it’s important to think before you speak to make sure your meaning is understood. You may want to rethink a message or text to avoid confusion.

CAPRICORN: You’ll be tempted to buy yourself something expensive and luxurious, but your Christmas gifts may blow your budget. You’ll be spending your energy as well as your money this week.

AQUARIUS: Take time to think an important decision through. You’ll start to develop your spirituality in a way that aligns with your personal values. You’ll consider making a pilgrimage.

PISCES: If you work closely with people, don’t forget to take the necessary precautions to avoid getting sick. Your immune system is fragile right now, so carve out some time to rest and regain your strength.

The luckiest signs this week: Taurus, Gemini and Cancer.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

KIDS HELPING KIDS

Alia donates her hair to Variety

By KEN SMITH LAST Thursday was a big day for Alia Burn from Wellington. At 5 1/2 years old, Alia had her first ever haircut and she has donated 35.5cm of her hair to Variety, the children’s charity.

“I am following in my big sister’s footsteps who donated her hair a couple of years ago,” Alia told Dubbo Photo News.

“I have made the decision to make a difference by cutting

and donating my hair to be made into a wig for someone who has lost their hair due to a medical condition.”

Variety, the children’s charity, runs an ongoing campaign called ‘Hair With Heart’ which asks people to “Chop your hair to help Aussie kids”.

“Your hair is given a second life and made into a wig for someone who has lost their hair due to a long-term medical condition – giving back the gift of confidence and self-es-

teem,” is how Variety explains the concept.

Alia is in kindergarten at Wellington Public School.

What an amazing donation from someone so young, and her proud mum Zoe said Alia is loving her new hairstyle.

Wigs cost families up to $6000, lasting one or two years, meaning families can spend tens of thousands of dollars on the purchase of wigs throughout a child’s youth.

EMERGENCY ISSUES

The Dubbo Photo News page dedicated to the hard work of our emergency services personnel.

News analysis by JOHN RYAN

The week that was WHAT a huge week from our emergency services across the region, it just didn’t seem as if the problems were going to stop coming.

And hats off to all the volunteers who’ve gone off to help fight fires in Queensland, and others who’ve been recognised for their efforts.

When it comes to wildfires, it seems Queensland unfortunately has many of the same issues NSW is afflicted with, where the troops on the ground do an amazing job despite problems at the top-level, city-centric management.

Firies to Queensland A SECOND team of firefighters from our region to the Queensland fires have flown out, the first team arrived back in Dubbo on Monday arvo and a third team will head out at the end of the week.

The local brigade thanked two major employers for their understanding and support, to allow these members to leave their jobs for a week at such a short notice – Dubbo RSL and Fletchers International. So well done to those businesses and anyone else who allowed employees to take time off.

Vince Harland, volunteer VINCE HARLAND is one of the local volunteers heading off to Queensland, and you wonder where he gets the time.

As well as being an Orana Support Team Bushfire Brigade volunteer member, he’s also a stalwart volunteer for the Dubbo Rescue Squad.

“I couldn’t go on the first callout but I could this week so I decided to come up and help them, they’d do the same for us,” Mr Harland said.

“Just being able to help the community, I’ve got the time to do so and that’s why I do it.

“We’re all here for the same reason, to help the community,” he said.

Well done Vince.

Wellington arrest EARLIER this week police in Wellington pursued a black Nissan X Trail through the town’s streets after the driver was suspected to be in possession of a firearm.

Police allege the 25-year-old local man accelerated away from police on Pierce Street at 10.30pm

Above: Emergency crews work to free a 32-year-old Dubbo man who was pinned inside his ATV near Wongarbon after a freak accident. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED Left: Vince Harland is one of the local volunteers heading off to Queensland to fight bushfires.

and reached speeds well in excess of the speed limit, continuing his erratic and irresponsible driving, with total and utter disregard for the public’s safety.

The pursuit was terminated because of public safety concerns and a number of police units commenced an extensive patrol of Wellington.

Around 2.30am, acting on information, police swooped on a residence in Swift Street where the man was found hiding in a rear shed, he was arrested and a nearby car searched with a number of items seized by police.

He was charged with engaging in a police pursuit and further charges are likely be laid in respect to a host of other matters.

Tree through leg THERE was a two-hour rescue near Wongarbon on Sunday for a 32-year-old Dubbo bloke on the weekend after he ran over a tree branch in his Polaris buggy and a piece came through the floor and passed through his right leg like a spear, with the far end effectively pinning him in the cabin.

He called a mate to come and help him cut the branch out and the first thing that mate did on arrival was call emergency services.

The pain was incredibly severe but the delicate nature of the job, with a 1.5 metre long, 30mm diameter branch through his leg, and the enclosed space, meant it was two hours before he could be freed.

Well done to the paramedics and RFDS doctor as well as Dubbo Rescue Squad and their range of special cutting tools.

It’s not just a matter of sawing some wood off the ends – the leverage of the branch intensifies the pain and trauma suffered when it’s moved the slightest bit.

Happy to say the man was freed and transported to Dubbo Base in a stable condition.

Police have issued a warning to anyone operating four wheelers and All-Terrain Vehicles.

“We appeal to operators of these vehicle to do so with extreme care,” police said.

This accident highlights that unexpected occurrences can cause a freak accident that can seriously injure or even kill people operating these vehicles, they added.

“They should be operated on private property that is free of obstacles that can caused potential accidents and injuries.

“ATVs are not a registerable vehicle and therefore can not be operated on public roads, crown land, parks, or reserves.

“When operating these vehicles people should wear suitable clothing and footwear, and use common sense when negotiating rough terrain,” police urged.

Fatality near Gular MORE tragedy on our roads this past week, with police investigating a fatal crash near Gilgandra last Sunday, December 2.

Police say a Ford Mondeo appears to have lost control and crashed while travelling on the Castlereagh Highway at Gulargambone, about 25 kilometres north of Gilgandra, with the 18-year-old male driver dying at the scene.

Five male passengers were taken to Dubbo and Gilgandra hospitals, four with suspected minor injuries and the remaining man in a critical condition.

A report will be prepared for the Coroner and police are appealing for any witnesses to come forward.

Well done Jenny Chenhall.

Jenny does a power of volunteer work for Dubbo Rescue Squad and she was among three finalists vying for this year’s NSW Corporate Volunteer of the Year title in Sydney.

The annual event is run by The Centre for Volunteering to recognise the outstanding work of volunteers across NSW, such as that conducted by Jenny who volunteers for the Dubbo VRA. Jenny said it was an honour to be nominated for the award and to join fellow volunteers in highlighting the worth of volunteers in communities across the state.

“Recognition is not what you look for, you just want to get on with the job, but it is nice,” Mrs Chenhall said.

“That recognition isn’t just for me, it’s recognising the work that we do as a squad and as an organisation.” z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

What has been your reaction to its success?

It’s been bizarre! I’m a classroom teacher. We don’t go into this for attention! But I’m trying to use this opportunity to draw attention to the great work being done by teachers around the country.

You have been described as ‘an inspirational maths teacher who is revolutionising education’. What do you say to that?

I am definitely trying to have a positive impact; I wouldn’t describe it as revolutionary! My teaching is taking the approach of caring about the kids more than the subject. You place that relationship first to create engagement and interest which can then bring more excitement and energy to the classroom.

Why did you decide to write your book “Woo’s Wonderful World of Maths” which is said to make maths fun, accessible and relevant?

When I was at school I didn’t realise that there was a huge amount of maths that

Eddie Woo never set out to teach mathematics but with almost half a million subscribers on his ‘Wootube’ channel, his aptitude for the subject is evident in his attitude, enthusiasm and encouragement. NATALIE HOLMES chatted to the energetic educator to find out more about his calling.

When did you first realise that maths was your thing?

I don’t think mathematics is my thing! I never really had an aptitude for it at school, but at university I wanted to learn enough to apply it in a classroom. It wasn’t something at which I was naturally gifted.

How did that translate into becoming a maths teacher?

That is part of my message to students. Anyone can grow in their understanding. I came to maths teaching in response to the NSW shortage of maths teachers. I wanted to become an English/History teacher. I also believe that teaching is about the students, that’s what sent me down the rabbit hole.

What do you say to those who struggle with maths?

Doing maths is like playing music. I don’t expect anyone is going to be Mozart on their first foray. You find the skills you need in places you didn’t expect. Think of it as a creative subject. To someone who struggles, I say find someone who can help you see that there is maths in what you do.

How did Wootube originate?

Six years ago, I had a student who was 15 or 16 and diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. At his age, my mum was diagnosed with lung cancer. Going through something like that, you just want to be normal. I know how difficult it can be to continue learning just by reading a textbook so it was in response to that need. It ended up being more useful than we anticipated.

can be applied in life. There are patterns in nature that show that maths is everywhere. I wrote the book to make people see that maths is everywhere!

Do you have a special shelf or room for all the awards you have received, which includes 2018 Australian Local Hero and Top 10 finalist for the Global Teachers Prize?

I actually keep them in a filing cabinet! I feel really honoured but my work is in the classroom. I am just doing my job.

What do your family, friends and students think of your fame?

My family treats me the same! To my kids, I am just Dad, to my students, I am their teacher. I hope I show them that what I teach is very valuable, I hope I show them great joy.

Thanks Eddie, I wish there were maths teachers like you around when I was growing up!

Eddie Woo will be at the Book Connection Dubbo from 4pm on December 13.

Donna Rees and her award recognising 21 years of service to the Dubbo & District Deaf Club. PHOTO: SUPPLIED.

A happy 21st birthday festival to celebrate the coming of age for the Dubbo & District Deaf Club (DDD) was held last Saturday, and whilst the sheer weight of activities across the city saw a smaller turnout than expected, it was still a well-supported event.

Pony rides, petting animals, the volunteer Bush Fire Brigade fire truck with water activities and fire safety

tips, face painting, Christmas crafts and a Santa visit kept the kids happy.

The adults amused themselves with a chocolate wheel, DDD history in a picture display and there were plenty of market stalls.

The highlight of the afternoon was the presentation of the club’s first life member, Donna Rees.

The hard-working volunteer was presented with a plaque acknowl-

edging that she’s a founding member, was the inaugural president and also to recognise her tireless work for the club.

Donna’s family was present to share in the celebrations and a home-baked cake created by a member of the club was also cut and enjoyed by all those present, followed by a casual dinner to celebrate the milestone.

Creative kids get $100 support from State Govt

Join oin Dundullimal and volunteer at NYE Fireworks Party

By DARCEE NIXON DUNDULLIMAL Dubbo Property Coordinator Karen Hagan and her husband Sean Hagan, who is also a Dundullimal volunteer, have put their hands up to help run Dubboâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upcoming New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve Fireworks Party.

They will both be working at one of the gates and are thrilled to initiate the complementary contribution between Dubboâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest new year celebration and the Dundullimal Dubbo Support Crew Inc. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really excited to be involved and the event is so well organised,â&#x20AC;? Ms Hagan told Dubbo Photo News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really important community event to bring everyone together. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important economically for Dubbo as well, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to pitch in and help out,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The share of funds that the Support Crew will receive will go towards the maintenance of the Dundullimal site,â&#x20AC;? President of Dundullimal Dubbo Support Crew Inc. Sis Honner said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dundullimal was here before Dubbo was gazetted a village in 1849, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preserving our history,â&#x20AC;? she added.

And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the dedication of vol-

unteers and contributions from the community and organisations such as this that continue to uphold the National Trust Siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unique charm and architecture.

The Dundullimal homestead is open to the public from 11am3pm Tuesday to Saturday with visitors welcome to drop in, however bookings are recommended for larger groups.

Other volunteer groups that will be benefitting from Dubbo New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve Fireworks Party include the VRA, Rural Fire Service, SES, Macquarie Homestay, Girl Guides, Golden West Holden Owners Club and ORISCON. The Golden West Holden Owners Club will be running the always popular Motor Show.

If you would like to volunteer and nominate a community group to receive a portion of the funds raised, contact Dubbo New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve Fire Party committee chair Peter Judd dubbofireworks@ gmail.com.

Attendees please note, the Kokoda Place gate (off Wingewarra St) is this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entrance for general patrons; Coral Crescent is reserved for the disabled and elderly only. The Cobra St gate will be closed.

ORGANISATIONS eligible for the NSW State Government Creative Kids program are invited to register with Service NSW to enable parents to claim their $100 vouchers with them after January 1, 2019.

Parents will be able to use one Creative Kids $100 voucher for every school-age child in their family per year to help meet the cost of structured creative and cultural activities, such as music lessons, languages, coding, drama and theatre, photography and graphic design.

The vouchers are a follow-up to the Active Kids voucher scheme helping families get their children involved in sport.

ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S A RECORD! A huge anamorphic painting symbolising hope and uniďŹ cation has been completed on a South Korean dam located near its northern neighbours. The 3D-looking painting stretches across 4775.7 square metres of concrete on the Peace Dam located on the Bukhan River. The painting covers almost the same surface area as four Olympic-sized swimming pools, and took a team of painters almost two months to complete. PHOTO:

The Village Bakery is the retail arm of Earlyrise Baking Company and its large team serves Dubbo seven days a week with guaranteed freshly baked goods and meals

shop in Macquarie Street from Phillip Kieler.

A 100-year-long dream to bake quality products for Dubbo residents started with a bag of flour in 1918 when Francis Oswald ‘Ossie’ Stevenson met and married Dorothy Wright, of Coonabarabran, and was offered a chance to learn the baking trade a little out of town, at Tooraweenah.

“Ossie” built a successful business to support his wife and five children at the time – Dorothy, Robert, Joan, Audrey and Douglas.

In 1923 he moved to Dubbo to supply his baked goods to a larger market where he bought a small

Stevenson’s Bakery “Ossie” named it Stevenson’s Bakery and developed a large network of customers, particularly in West Dubbo, and serviced the Army Camp which was located where Taronga Western Plains Zoo is today.

“He was delivering the bread by horse and cart. The roads were not sealed which was very slow work,” local businesswoman and Ossie’s granddaughter Helen McLean said.

In 1933, he relocated to Talbragar Street near the Civic Hotel, then further west next to the Pas-

toral Hotel.

During these times, Ossie’s sixth child was born in Dubbo; a boy, John Francis Stevenson. The family worked hard to ensure Dubbo had freshly baked goods until 1944 when “Ossie” sold the bakery to his children Bob, Audrey Stevenson and Audrey’s husband, Jack Goss. Audrey & Jack were Helen McLean’s parents.

“Mum worked at the bakery with her three brothers, Bob, Doug and John Stevenson, in the evenings, and then went to work at a grocery store called Moneysavers during the day,” Helen said.

Goss’s Bakery “In the four years that Dad was

a

away at war, he also helped the priest administer the sacraments whenever possible, as well as being a trader of sorts, and with any money he saved, he sent home,” Helen said.

“There was a reason for this.

There was a hope that after the war our grandfather would teach my dad to be a baker.”

When Jack returned from the war in 1947, after serving in New Guinea, he and Audrey bought Bob’s share and started trading under J.E. and A.L. Goss, and the store was named Goss’s Bakery.

The next 40 years continued to be a family affair, with Audrey’s brothers Doug and John Steven-

son, and Audrey and Jack’s children Helen (McLean), Ted and John, all working in the bakery.

“Our grandfather was a terrific worker and I remember how hard he would push us kids to finish our jobs at the bakery. My job before I went to school was really early in the morning, to slice and wrap the bread,” Helen recalled.

“Ossie Stevenson would be the one feeding the chute with bread, pushing it down to where the blades would slice through evenly. Then my turn was to wrap it in wax paper, and place it in a heated machine that would seal the paper.

son, who would uld a ask â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;cutting bread again?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; i ?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are so many stories that us kids would listen to from our Pa and we were really blessed to have had him, not only as the hard task master to show us the ropes, but also because Ossie was genuinely a great human being. He had nothing handed to him on a silver platter, but took his life and his family in his own two hands and made a remarkable job of it,â&#x20AC;? she said.

South Dubbo Bakery, Boundary Road In 1960, Helenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uncle John Stevenson fell in love with Christina Kosseris when she started working at Gossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. She was the daughter of another Dubbo baker, Nick Kosseris.

John and Christina married in 1965 and inevitably their children, Bill, Robert and John, who run the business today, would learn about the art of baking from a very young age.

Nick would often take Bill and Robert to his bakery on weekends to help him, and they also learnt from their father John whilst at Gossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

When Bill left school he went to work fulltime with his father at the South Dubbo Bakery in Boundary Road.

This gave Bill the opportuni-

ty to undertake a baking apprenti hi and d his hi brothers b th h ticeship, a chance to gain experience after school, on weekends and during school holidays.

Tragedy sees Bill, Robert and John Stevenson take over Their resolve to be bakers was tested however in 1982 when their grandfather died on January 2, and their father died from a heart attack on December 26.

Bill was 16, Robert, 15, and John was only 10 years old. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was pretty tough times and we had to stick together and it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really matter what happened, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing as bad as that. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a case of letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just get on and get the job done. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to carry that through for the last 36 years,â&#x20AC;? Bill Stevenson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was like, I went to work with Dad on Boxing Day and that was it,â&#x20AC;? Robert said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had a major heart attack and it was all over. His birthday was on Christmas Day. Things changed pretty quickly.â&#x20AC;?

They had always thought they would follow in their fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s footsteps and after his death this goal became concreted in their minds.

Their fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s words that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;once the flour gets into your veins it is always thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; has stayed with

them, and urged them to strive the ffurther. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were brought up with a very good work ethic and we knew at the time that Dad had already taught us enough baking skills to carry the business on. The business side was something that we had to learn by experience over time â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we just had to learn. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still learning,â&#x20AC;? Bill said.

Village Bakery CafĂŠ In 1990, Bill, Robert and John and their wives Carol, Wendy and Kelly purchased the Village Hot Bake in Dubbo, gutted the building, and made way for significant renovations to create the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first bakery cafĂŠ.

In 1998, the Village Bakery CafĂŠ opened the doors to decades of success, producing awarding-winning products, popular with residents and travellers alike. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We married three good ladies.

Rob met his wife in the bakery, and I met mine through the bakery by doing deliveries â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I used to take her lunch every day,â&#x20AC;? Bill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done without the girls. They work in the bakery, not as much now, but they did in the early years. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be there on a Sunday morning at 6am. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have the bassinets in the office and the kids were in there,

and they were out in the shop serving customers or baking the bread.

Once one kid was old enough to look after the rest, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what they did. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown up in the bakeries. We all grew up in the bakeries,â&#x20AC;? Bill said.

Earlyrise Baking Company One hundred years on from the family businessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s humble beginnings, Bill, Robert and John are proud to be regional country bakers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; born and bred in the country â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and remain committed to providing regional communities with the freshest products daily.

In 2001, as the demand for their fresh baked products grew, the need arose for the retail and wholesale businesses to be split, and they established the Earlyrise Baking Company located here in Dubbo, where more than 250 delicious varieties of products are made daily.

Over two decades the brothers have grown the business greatly. It now distributes their bakery products right across rural, regional and metropolitan NSW, ACT and Queensland supplying to shops, cafes and supermarkets. Even Qantas!

They also operate a Village Bakehouse store in Orange and the group employs a staff of 180.

Earlyrise Baking Company has now entered its fourth-generation and in true family tradition the brotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children are now moulding careers in the family baking business.

Emma and Taylor Stevenson are the managers of Village Bakery Dubbo, Nathan Stevenson is the Head Baker at Earlyrise, and Beau & Brady Stevenson are in sales and administration roles within the business.

Where does Earlyrise Baking Co. deliver to?

They deliver their fresh baked goods daily to Dubbo, Nyngan, Cobar, Bourke, Lightning Ridge, Coonamble, Coolah, Orange, Bathurst and all towns in between.

The bakery operationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ingredients are sourced from Australian farmers.

The use flour and canola that is grown by local farmers around the Central West, Parkes, Forbes, Trangie, Nyngan and Narromine, eggs that are laid at Molong, and beef that has been bred throughout the areas they distribute to.

Using the highest quality ingredients, combined with secret traditional Stevenson family recipes that have been handed down through generations, has seen the business win more than 150 awards for their products.

Village Bakery production manager Brad Wilshire. PHOTO: WENDY MERRICK

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY WHEN Earlyrise Baking Company production manager Brad Wilshire was 15, he was getting into a lot of trouble at school.

“I walked out the back of Dubbo High one day and across Victoria Park onto Talbragar Street and I saw the Village Hot Bake sign and told myself I was going to get a job there. I went in and saw Bill Stevenson and he said, ‘You start tonight at 12 o’clock’,” Brad told Dubbo Photo News.

"I sliced bread for a few days and they offered me an apprenticeship. I have never looked back."

Just about every job at Earlyrise Baking Company is a roll-up-yoursleeves position and working his way up in the company from apprentice to Production Manager has rewarded Brad in many ways.

“I’ve made a lot of life-long friends.

I like the teams and the team energy.

some big days, weeks, even months and you get to the end of that, sit down together and you think to yourself, wow, we just did that.

“You get out of it what you put in though. It is hard work. It’s a fast-moving consumable product so it’s not easy, but it’s very rewarding,” Brad said.

In a production line that’s putting out thousands of products an hour, such as 400 pies every 15 minutes out of seven ovens, or monitoring the slicing of 75 loaves of bread a minute, his job keeps him on his toes.

“There’s always challenges. We always try to be positive and look for solutions. That’s the name of the game. If you let things that are going wrong get on top of you, you’re in trouble.”

Walking away from trouble as a 15-year-old set him on a path to success and Brad is sure it was meant to be.

I was a young kid and we lived next door to Henry’s Hot Bake, so I used to kick around with their son a bit, and I’d see inside the bakery and it intrigued me back then.

“As I grew up, my grandmother, Beryl Wilshire, ran a smoko van. She was very well known, and she was supplied from Goss’s Bakery and then later on from Village Hot Bake, so on school holidays, I’d be doing the smoko with my grandmother and I’d see the bakery and all the baked products.

“I never really forgot it, so for destiny to lead me across the park that day, and see the bakery and tell myself I’m going to get a job there; I get a buzz out of that.

“I’m proud of my achievements. I’ve won some awards along the way. The company has won many awards. It seems it just keeps ticking boxes and it’s onwards and upwards. It’s a great feeling to be part of that team,” he said.

Dubbo barrister’s unique view of justice on Nauru

By NATALIE HOLMES DUBBO barrister Stephen Lawrence’s involvement in a high-profile case in Nauru has led to a deeper understanding of the island nation and its people.

Mr Lawrence is representing the Nauru 19 as one of four Pacific region judges assembled there this week to hear new appeals arising from the case. The group is accused of public order crimes following the suspension of the Parliamentary opposition and the expulsion of the entire judiciary.

The appeals will be the first sitting of the newly created Nauru Court of Appeal, created earlier this year following that Government’s termination of the Treaty

that had previously given the High Court of Australia jurisdiction over appeals from Nauru.

“I can’t comment on the case itself as a barrister, but the experience of regularly travelling to Nauru in the last couple of years has been very rewarding,” Mr Lawrence told Dubbo Photo News.

“We always travel as a team and we always have a house to stay in. The Nauruan people are very decent and have a unique culture.

“The work there is intense, but I’ve used my spare time to walk around the top of the island, explore World War II relics, go fishing and learn about the local culture and history.”

Mr Lawrence believes

that the country and its people have often been publicly misconstrued.

“I have met a lot of refugees there and observed places they live and work.

I think a lot of the truths about life on Nauru get lost in the media debate.”

According to Mr Lawrence, the case has united the civic centres of Dubbo and Nauru.

“I think Nauru/Dubbo relations are definitely at a high point. Many of the Nauru 19 and their families follow my Facebook page and when I go there, many Dubbo political and Council issues get raised for discussion,” said Mr Lawrence, who is also a Councillor on Dubbo Regional Council, and the Labor Candidate

for the 2019 election for the state seat of Dubbo.

Judge Geoffrey Muecke said that the influence of the Australian legal team had been positive in the case.

“In my judgement, such conduct by the prosecuting and administrative authorities within the Executive Government of Nauru was inappropriate,” the Judge said.

“My assessment of the defendants’ Australian legal team is that at all times they acted appropriately, professionally and courageously in putting their clients’ case to the courts. In all these respects, I am satisfied and find that each and every one of them upheld their duties as lawyers and their

responsibilities to their clients,” he said.

Spokesperson for the group Mathew Batsiua said the Nauru 19 are eagerly awaiting the appeals.

“We are calling this the final showdown, we have fundraised thousands of dollars from our passionate supporters to pay for

our pro bono legal team to travel to Nauru,” Mr Batsiua said.

“We all look forward to the end of the case. We have suffered blacklisting and persecution and the burden of this case has been huge.

We hope it ends once and for all.”

Study claims farm dams are emissions hotspots

By JOHN RYAN

One of the workshops run in the Wellington region by Peter Andrews earlier this month.

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

THE man behind the Natural Sequence Farming method, Peter Andrews, has just run a series of workshops around Wellington encouraging landholders to set their country up so it acts as a giant sponge, to soak up water and store it in the soil so it keeps the soil alive during extended dry times.

For years farmers have known the dangers of water evaporating from farm dams as the weather gets warmer, with evaporation rates around Dubbo estimated at up to three metres each year.

Now a new university study claims farm dams are emissions hotspots.

According to the Deakin University research, which sampled

77 farm dams across western Victoria, those 77 dams combined to produce the ‘’same daily emissions as 385,000 cars’’.

Hungry microbes thrive in the niche aquatic habitats and release carbon dioxide and methane gases into the atmosphere, potentially making farm dams one of the highest freshwater system emitters in the world, the paper suggests.

Researcher and PhD candidate Quinn Ollivier said the small bodies of water dotted across agricultural land had slipped “under the radar” when it came to man-made climate change discussions.

In Victoria there are 375,000 farm dams with a combined volume greater than Sydney Harbour, making them “absolute

hotspots” for emissions, Mr Ollivier said.

“Put simply, the freshwater in farm dams creates a unique environment for microbes,” he said.

“When all these little microbes munch on the plant and animal matter coming into the dams, they breathe out potent greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide.”

The research also suggests that farm dams produced more than three times the greenhouse gas emissions than reservoirs, despite covering less area.

Some solutions put forward include having far more plants around dams to reduce not only synthetic fertilisers getting into the water, but also filtering ani-

mal waste run-off.

That could reduce nitrate nutrient levels thereby cutting the emissions from the dams themselves.

Peter Andrews says it doesn’t need to be a problem.

“The landscape used to store the water underneath the grass and there was no evaporation and no loss, instead that sub-surficial layer of water drove plant growth and allowed the plants to pull what they needed from the air, instead of the other way round where we’re losing things to the atmosphere,” Mr Andrews said.

“This landscape ran itself for millions of years before we stuffed it up and we have to recognise that and get things working properly again,” he said.

Petrol price extremes, water dangers A billion regrets

John Ryan

Ned’s super Santa

Ty’s Movember target

NED JOHNSON (above) is pretty stoked about an early visit from Santa Claus, the one-year-old local Blues’ fan seeing a Santa made from a couple of round hay bales by his dad Myles.

A few months ago that hay would’ve been far too valuable to put anywhere near the roadside.

Hopefully this rain will continue and there’ll be plenty of fodder around over the summer and well into next year.

I did a yarn a few weeks back about Ty Hawkins and his ongoing Movember crusade. I’m happy to reveal he hit his personal fundraising target – and well beyond in reality since he inspired a host of other Dubbo Junior Rugby cricket coaches to join him this year.

Well done mate, spreading that awareness and inspiring others to do the same is in essence even more important than raising the cash itself.

HERE’S the state government’s PR spin doctoring headline: “Return and Earn: a billion reasons to celebrate.”

That’s such a long way from the real story, but read on, because this is the sort of guff that consumes most reportage these days.

NSW Environment Minister Gabrielle Upton said Return and Earn has been an outstanding success and changed the way people dispose of empty drink containers.

“Before Return and Earn, many drink bottles and cans became litter and only a third were being recycled through yellow lidded bins.

“Now the trend is reversed: far more are recycled than are littered and the state is a cleaner place,” Ms Upton said.

This is one of the most poorly designed schemes I’ve ever heard of.

Taxpayers and consumers have to pay extra and then do a whole lot of work just to regain that extra capital outlay, and they have to do all this work for free. They have to store the recyclable bottles and cans, buy bags or have containers to put them in, find time to put them in their vehicle and then, in their own unpaid time, drive their own vehicle and using their own fuel down to the unreliable Return and Earn machines

time, it’s absolutely true. As a species, we have never enjoyed better health, higher standards of living or more diverse opportunity. One simple statistic – longer life spans – proves the point.

So why do we feel so worried?

Remember we are designed to focus on the negative. When we evolved in the jungles and on the savannahs, it was important that we took serious notice of the grass that moved a little differently, or the leaves that rustled when others didn’t. It may have been a tiger, python or neighbour planning to have us for lunch. Or it may have been potential lunch for us. Either way it was important we took notice. A matter of survival.

To illustrate, there is this

quote from Margaret Attwood’s best seller Blind Assassin – “Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.”

To achieve anything, we have to ‘have a go’ – and having a go involves failure. Achieving ongoing success involves learning the skill of “failing forward”. That means learning from our mistakes and moving on – applying the lessons learned and not making those same mistakes again.

So here is the summary. We are built to focus on the negative. That’s a survival trait. To achieve we have to strive and when we strive we will sometimes fail. This can add up to defeat if we don’t cultivate the habit of remembering that ‘failure’ is one of the most important

ingredients of a ‘successful’ life.

The key skill is to find the good in the mistakes – the silver lining in the cloud and consciously focusing on it. The silver lining – rather than the cloud.

American neurobiologist Dr Rick Hanson, author of Hardwiring Happiness, says “taking in the good” each day trains the brain to turn transient positive moments into something more long-lasting, and gradually sensitises the brain to positive experiences. He offers this formula: H.E.A.L. H – Have a positive experience and notice it, whether it is a physical pleasure, feeling or sense of determination.

E – Enrich it. Consciously stay with the positive experience for 5 to 10 seconds and let it fill

Tradies in sight: this Saturday, not last NORMALLY I don’t admit I get things wrong, except to my long-suffering wife, but I guess no-one’s perfect.

In last week’s column I mentioned Tradies In Sight and I got everything correct except the date of their catch-up at South Dubbo Veterans and Community Shed.

These two great organisations are partnering up and collaborating for better health outcomes for men, especially in the mental health space.

Anyway, if you’re a tradie or a bloke who wants to get involved, the first brekky at the South Shed wasn’t last weekend as I stated in the last edition but rather this Saturday, December 8, starting from 7am.

It’s a great initiative so get along and support what all these good local blokes are trying to achieve for our community.

Dubbo Photo News December 6-12, 2018

7 DAYS • ANALYSIS OF THE WEEK’S NEWS it’s better than $1.50?

A mate who was in Melbourne this past week showed me a pic of the prices down in the southern capital.

That’s 30 cents less per litre.

I’m all for free-enterprise and people being rewarded for risking their capital to start businesses, but when we have these transnational corporations taking us for a ride like this, the government should step in.

Mojo Juju MOJO JUJU’S brother Luis Lurzuriaga is a mate of mine and a former Dubbo photographer and he was pretty chuffed when his sis was nominated for three ARIA Awards.

“Even though she was not successful it’s an amazing effort getting nominated,” he said.

“AND she is a winner to me – I am so very proud of her in so many ways and has my upmost respect – she does not need an award for that.”

Well said.

Inland waterway dangers WE’VE already talked about warnings for people on the water with the weather heating up, now a major new Royal Life Saving campaign is under way warning people of the dangers of inland waterways.

Concerning figures show

that in the past 15 years, 1087 people have drowned in rivers, creeks and streams.

Males account for 80 per cent of all drowning deaths, and 56 per cent of the males who drowned had alcohol and/or drugs in their system.

What this means is that while everyone should be able to have a bit of fun, you have to look after your mates, especially if their judgement has been impaired by grog or drugs.

And 74 per cent of people who drowned in rivers were locals, not visitors.

To be totally honest, I did so many stupid things when I was a young bloke when it came to irrigation channels and the Murray River where I spent much of my time outdoors, I now reckon I was just plain lucky, along with my mates.

Knowing what I know now, and having reported on so many tragic drowning deaths, many by misadventure, I’d behave very differently.

Q Fever concerns: FEDERAL Member for Parkes Mark Coulton is concerned the dry conditions have seen the Q Fever disease amplified recently, due to increased hand-feeding and other management practices required on-farm during the drought.

Q Fever is an infectious disease that is almost always related to direct or indirect con-

tact with animals including cattle, sheep or goats.

“At the moment, Q Fever vaccinations cost over $300,” Mr Coulton said.

“I believe this vaccination must be made more cost-effective for farmers in my electorate to take advantage of it, and avoid becoming infected with this debilitating disease.”

Last week Mr Coulton spoke in Parliament House about the importance of this matter to the farmers in his electorate and others.

“I have written to the Agriculture Minister, David Littleproud, and Health Minister, Greg Hunt, to receive guidance and advice on how we can make the vaccination for Q Fever more cost-effective for farmers,” Mr Coulton said.

One of my best mates has been suffering chronic acute Q Fever for the past decade and in many ways it’s destroyed his life.

As soon as he was diagnosed I rushed in to get the vaccination. Many people who get hit hard by Q Fever believe it’s a fate worse than death. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best z Additional reporting by Dubbo Photo News staff.

COUNCIL WATCH VICTORIA STREET SHOPS

RMS parking plan threatens ‘Mum and Dad businesses’, developer says

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

CITY WEST PLAZA developer Kath Skinner and the Victoria Street neighbourhood shopping precinct tenants are up in arms over Roads and Maritime Services’ intention to widen the road, putting parking in front of their shops into doubt.

Mrs Skinner told Dubbo Photo News she was the last to find out after RMS representatives had visited her tenants last week, and advised them they would lose their parking.

Eventually Mrs Skinner was able to arrange a meeting where she was advised that was never said, but “it’s looking likely that...”. “‘It’s looking likely that...’ is the wording that they’re using, that we’re going to lose all the parking in front of the (Victoria Street) shops up to IGA. There may be parking on the other side of the street, but there’s going to be dual carriageway all the way along Victoria Street, and this is not drawn up yet, but there will be a concrete median strip down the centre to house the traffic lights, and in all probability, but not definitively, that it will extend to the western end of the IGA,” she said.

“Well, my question to them is this: what are you going to do about accessibility to the shops?

Those businesses are ‘Mum and Dad businesses’. They’re not Myer or Coles, or multinationals.

They’re ratepaying, taxpaying, business operations; they’re sole traders. “What are you going to do about the accessibility to the ser-

vices that they offer? The tenants have taken those leases on the basis that it’s high profile and people can park in front; it’s zoned neighbourhood shopping centre.

Mrs Skinner said she got the impression the RMS had no idea what the zoning was or what it meant.

Dubbo Photo News contacted RMS and were advised late last week that no decision had been made about parking on Victoria Street at Dubbo.

“Roads and Maritime will continue to work closely with business owners to achieve the best possible outcome for them,” a spokesperson said.

“Road safety, freight access, traffic efficiency are also key considerations in the design of the intersection upgrade.

“The $20 million proposed upgrade on the Mitchell and Newell highways intersection at Dubbo will provide wider lanes to improve safety for road users,” they said.

That’s little consolation for Blossoms of Dubbo florist manager Sarah Clews.

“I moved in, in March or April.

Parking is more than a little important to my business, and not just for people coming in to buy flowers. I’ve got nowhere for my couriers to park if I have no parking here at all,” she said.

“I cannot get flowers to my couriers by walking across four lanes of traffic. I get stock that arrives from the markets, three times a week, and not just the flowers, but all my sundry stuff like ceramic vases which come in quite large

Looking for answers: Left to right, Ted’s Milk Bar co-owner Kim Barling, City West Plaza developer Kath Skinner, concerned citizens Peter and Christine Bray, Blossoms of Dubbo’s Sarah Clews, City West Plaza’s Terry Skinner, Lumina Hair Design’s Kristy Schneider and tenant Margaret Brown all share concerns that the Victoria Street shopping strip may lose street parking.

boxes.”

All the businesses reliant on product deliveries have struggled with the fact there has been no loading zone available.

Promised beautification also hasn’t happened despite assistance from Dubbo Regional Councillor Vicky Etheridge who has been advocating for an upgrade and revitalisation of neighbourhood centres across Dubbo since October 2017.

“We’re still rattling that cage,” Mrs Skinner said. “We started this journey nearly five years ago, spurred on by an occupancy

rate of 28.5 per cent; that’s two out of seven shops vacant at the time. Occupancy is now at 100 per cent,” she said.

In response to tenant concerns Dubbo Regional Council mayor Ben Shields told Dubbo Photo News that planning and design of the intersection upgrade is still in draft stages and further consultation is to be undertaken.

“Council is working collaboratively with RMS on revising and preparing a detailed design for this intersection, particularly in relation to minimising the impact on parking in front of the shops

COUNCIL NEWS...

IN BRIEF

This council-supplied map shows the new roads at the airport to be named Walters Way (marked in pink), Weyand Drive (green), and Howe Circuit (blue).

Dubbo Airport roads to be named after community members DUBBO Regional Council recently adopted names for three new streets in new developments at the Dubbo City Regional Airport.

Walters Way, Weyand Drive and Howe Circuit recognise the contribution to the Airport and Emergency Services precinct under development by Olaf Weyand, Noel Howe and Max Walters.

Olaf Weyand established AirLink Airlines in 1974, which eventually became

part of Regional Express (REX) Airlines.

Mr Howe was a respected flight instructor, flying school owner and founder of the Dubbo Aero Club, and Mr Walters played a role in establishing the Dubbo Rescue Squad and NSW Volunteer Rescue Association.

Mayoral minute supports LGNSW call on waste levy reinvestment A MAYORAL minute was adopted by Council in support of the Local Government NSW ‘Save Our Recycling’ campaign

calling on all political parties to commit to the reinvestment of 100 per cent of the waste levy collected annually by the NSW Government back into waste management, recycling and resource recovery.

“Now that China has gone down the path of no longer accepting our recycled waste, costs are going to go up significantly,” Mayor Ben Shields said.

“We have this rubbish levy, effectively, which goes to the State Government, but the operators of waste do not get nearly as much money as they should be. There are major changes needed,” he said.

100-metre pedestrian bridge over Macquarie River proposed DUBBO Regional Council has been advised that an expression of interest for the ‘Destination Dubbo – International Ready’ project that was made to the NSW Government has been successful, and it will progress to a business case under the Regional Growth Environment and Tourism Fund.

“This expression of interest proposed for Dubbo Regional Council is to invest in a number of products to lift our offering to the international tourism market,” said DRC economic development and business director Natasha Comber.

Projects include the Dubbo Wiradjuri

along Victoria Street,” Cr Shields said.

“The intersection design is to ensure the proposed intersection upgrade achieves the goals of significantly improving local traffic flow through this intersection, facilitating the efficient movement of heavy vehicles on the Newell and Mitchell Highways and addressing road and pedestrian safety and accessibility issues around the intersection.

“At the same time, in accordance with work already undertaken by Council in collaboration with the property owners along Victoria Street, Council aims to ensure this shopping precinct remains active and vibrant and that access to these shops for both motorists and pedestrians is recognised as a key outcome of the intersection upgrade works being undertaken

by RMS,” he said.

“Council is fully committed to maintaining effective ongoing consultation with RMS and the community members along this section of Victoria Street as this project develops,” Mayor Shields said.

Mrs Skinner got one glimpse of hope late last week following discussions with RMS regional director Alistair Lunn.

“He said they may need to make some different decisions based on what they’re hearing. I’m prepared to take him at face value but the jury is still out. I’ve said to him, please keep us in the loop. We’re more than happy to talk with you.

I’m sure there’s a reasonable solution here.”

Tourism Centre, the Macquarie Foreshore Cultural Precinct and Trail, and a 100-metre pedestrian footbridge over the Macquarie River.

Budget to consider CBD car parking areas lighting COUNCIL has recommended funds be allocated in the 2019/2020 council budget for the development of a lighting strategy within CBD car parks.

An audit of 16 council-owned CBD car parking areas was undertaken in late October 2018 which found there was a total of 58 lights, of which 12 were not working, and were reported to Essential Energy.

The audit identified that some tree pruning is required, five parking areas had no lights installed, a further five car parking areas would benefit from additional lights to improve visibility, and some off-road car parks may benefit from on street lighting.

OPINION & ANALYSIS LETTERS & FEEDBACK

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Federal Member responds to “Missing million” story The Editor, I announced in August that all 18 local councils in my electorate, as well as the Unincorporated Area, would receive $1 million in extra grant funding under an extension to the Drought Communities Programme (DCP).

This important funding has been welcomed widely by councils in the Parkes electorate both large and small, prompting them to identify and pursue local projects that will boost community infrastructure and stimulate local employment and community spending.

I am aware of many excellent projects already in the works under this program, and I know they will go a long way to help the communities doing it tough at the moment as a result of the drought.

I note that I was not con-

tacted regarding a recent article published by Dubbo Photo News [“Mayor asks: Where’s our missing million?”, November 29 edition] in relation to the DCP. In this article, it was suggested that Dubbo Regional Council should be entitled to a further $1 million, due to the 2016 merger of Dubbo and Wellington, and that population differences in council areas should also come into consideration, with reference to smaller populations such as Gilgandra and Narromine.

The Federal Government has committed this significant drought funding to support council areas that have suffered greatly from the ongoing drought. Historic council amalgamations are not considered, nor is population, in determining a council’s eligibility for the DCP, which is based

on the level of hardship experienced as a result of the drought. It should be noted that towns with a small population, but larger numbers of farming residents, can often be the hardest hit.

I have invited the Mayor of Dubbo to share a letter with me, that I can pass on to the Minister responsible for further discussion.

I thank the Mayor for his comments.

More information on the DCP – Extension is available at www.business.gov.au/assistance/drought-communities-programme.

To our American brothers... How to vote better Greg Smart ❚ OPINION AUSTRALIA has a kinship with the United States of America, we often use the saying ‘when America sneezes, Australia catches a cold’. When something happens ‘in the States’, it is not long before we have the same experience on our side of the Pacific Ocean, be it a popular culture high or a stock market low.

We see your patriotic declarations of freedom, democratic process and global leadership; and have long admired your courage and creativity.

Now, through the 24-hour news cycle and social media, we have an unimpeded ringside view of your inner workings. And what we see is a land that is barely free, and a home given over to inequity.

Why do we Australians look at your nation and recoil at what we see?

The simplest answer is your electoral system bears little relationship to your boasts of freedom and is divorced from the basic tenants of democracy.

It excludes when it should be inclusive; it is partisan when it should be neutral, and lacks conformity across your States. It seems so far removed from the concept of ‘free and fair elections’ that we Australians shake our heads in disbelief at the disconnect between what you claim is democratic freedom, and what actually occurs.

Let me compare and contrast the Australian electoral system with the fractured American system.

Australia has mandatory voting. This is not seen as an attack

on freedom of speech or individual rights. It engages the ‘sensible centre’ of political disposition to vote, and mutes the loudest voices of the political fringe ideology. Those fringe dwellers still have a voice, just not the rallying voice needed in a non-mandatory system to get the people ‘out to vote’.

People can opt out of voting and some do. They have their names marked off the electoral role on election day and don’t fill out a ballot paper. Some people don’t even do that and choose to pay a nominal fine. But the overwhelming majority put aside their indifference or dissatisfaction with politicians and engage with the process as their civic duty.

To ensure our mandatory system is well regulated, we have a network of federal and state electoral commissions who administer the electoral roll of voters and the various elections. A major role of electoral commissions is to make voting easy.

Electoral commissions are tasked to ‘get out the vote’. A person turning 17 years old is invited to enrol to vote, by confirming their address and providing a driver’s licence number for example. This ensures that on turning 18 they are already on the roll, should a snap election be called. Most people remain on the roll for life.

Because electoral commissions

are at arm’s length from government, partisanship does not factor into voter enrolment or any commissions functions. Voter suppression does not exist. Electoral boundaries are determined by population, not socioeconomic factors. Gerrymandering is not a word in our vocabulary.

Our elections take place on Saturdays. This is part of making voting easy. With each election, more people take advantage of pre-polling by voting any day before the nominated election day, which again is part of making voting easy.

And how do we vote? With pen and paper.

This may sound completely incongruous in the digital age, but it works. All ballot papers are ac` And how do we vote? counted for both before and afWith pen and paper. This ter the election. Paper ballots are may sound completely next to impossible to tamper with, incongruous in the digital because so many would have to age, but it works. All ballot be altered physically to swing an electoral result. Ballot papers don’t papers are accounted for need passwords or antivirus softboth before and after the and they cannot be altered election.... a ware, in bulk with the sweep of a finger.

Because the system is uniform and regulated, there aren’t lawyers peering over shoulders. To allow fair scrutiny, political party officials may watch the counting, but not touch the ballot papers.

Within a couple of hours the polling booths have completed counting and initial results are publicised.

Every used and unused ballot paper is accounted for to ensure probity in the result and transparency in the process. The election result becomes clear late on election night. The vanquished concede honourably, to the victor the spoils.

All the ballot papers are recounted by the electoral commission as a matter of course over the following weeks, not just the seats with tight results. Again, the integrity of the process matters. Each ballot must be accounted for, whether damaged, discarded or replaced.

Can the American electoral system claim to be this inclusive, non-partisan and uniform?

From our Australian perspective we believe it can’t.

Through the lens of the 24-hour news cycle and social media, we see your system mired in gerrymandering, voter suppression, court orders and hyper-partisanship. And we remember the internationally embarrassing ‘hanging chad’ fiasco.

Your chaotic methods do not give rise to orderly outcomes. Worse, your claims to freedom and democracy are severely eroded, and certainly diminished in our view.

Take some advice from your Australian kin – it’s time you had the intellectual honesty to reset your electoral system.

They are tangible and treated consistently across all polling places.

How does election day work?

The number of electoral commission staff is swelled by people like me and other interested members of the public who are paid by the electoral commission to run polling booths. Polling booths are spread across the country at accessible places such as schools and town halls, with the locations determined by the electoral commission after studying previous election data and current population distribution.

Voters turn up to have their name marked off the electoral roll, are issued with a ballot paper (from a stockpile of new ballot papers which were counted earlier to confirm the number on hand).

They place the completed ballot in the ballot box and head outside for a ‘democracy sausage’ being sold at the school fundraising barbecue.

At 6pm the voting booths are closed, doors are locked and counting begins. The polling booth staff empty the ballot boxes, then z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, sort and count the ballot papers. and is keen observer of current affairs.

Narromine Rotary Club helps Tottenham Central School students in dry times

WHEN Geoff Smith travelled through the Tottenham district earlier this year, he was astounded by how dry the area was. Having spent many years as a member of the Rotary Club of Narromine, Geoff contacted the Tottenham Central School’s Parent’s & Citizens Association president Greg Radford to find out how the local community was coping.

Next, Geoff contacted his colleagues on the eastern seaboard to raise awareness of the extent of the drought and the toll it was taking, not only on farming families, but also on the small businesses reliant on the local agricultural industry.

With the support of the Rotary Club of Narromine president Chris Barnett, Geoff found that members from other Rotary Clubs were only too eager to fundraise.

The combined efforts of the Rotarians have assisted the students and families of Tottenham Central School, with a cheque for $8750 presented to Greg Radford and school principal Amanda Thorpe at a recent school assembly.

Demi and Lilly were recognised for their selection in the NSW All Schools Touch Football team. Congratulations to you both!

It was also great to catch up with Wellington’s Ben Austin OAM who gave the audience a fascinating insight into what it takes to be an elite athlete and perform at the elite level.

Everyone is feeling the crippling impact of this drought, including local businesses.

One of the projects Council will apply for funding for is the allocation of a water source for Stuart Town. The $560,000 in Federal funding would see a bore and storage tank installed, providing non-potable water for the village. Residents will be able to collect water from the storage tank for uses such as livestock consumption and gardening, while keeping their own potable water exclusively for human use.

It was wonderful to catch-up with Michael White from Wellington CRT last week, where I also purchased a solar snake repeller for the upcoming warmer months.

(It could come in handy for politics too!)

Michael, and his wife Carolyn, have been running the CRT in Wellington for more than 30 years and like many small businesses, are feeling the impact of this crippling drought. By shopping locally or using local service providers, you’re helping to create local jobs in our region, so I’m encouraging everyone to support our local businesses and shop local – especially during the festive season!

LABOR’S RETIREE TAX TO HIT CALARE Retirees in Calare stand to lose thousands of dollars from their nest egg every year under Labor’s proposed retiree tax.

In Calare there are more than 6,500 people whose hard earned savings will be raided. Of those adversely impacted, on average, individuals lose $2,200 a year and self-managed super funds lose $12,000 a year. For many, the losses will be much higher.

These retirees that are being hit hard are not ‘rich’. They are people who’ve worked all their lives in regular jobs to plan and save for retirement. Some retirees are reporting losses of $30,000.

Sunset After Storm: Our region's unpredictable weather may be causing some problems for some, but not for keen photographers such as Matthew Peterson who captured this image late last Wednesday afternoon.

Country sunset: Thanks to photographer Peter Woodward for this latest contribution, taken over the weekend as sunset was approaching.

The Table of Knowledge: Another Paparazzi correspondent got a secret tip-off that this group of well-known Dubbo faces – colloquially known as 'The Table of Knowledge' – had donned their Christmas hats for the group's latest get-together.

The group is pictured enjoying a snack on Macquarie Street.

Street entertainment: One of Paparazzi's correspondents just happened to be in the right spot at the right time to see this demonstration by Kang's Taekwondo next to the Rotunda in Church Street last week. This gent's demo was all done to a backing track of music, adding a nice bit of festive cheer to the main street.

The crowd that gathered to watch seemed to be loving it!

According to the guests, the highlight of the evening was Brad’s garter throw dance with Lisa.

The day started out with a sprinkle of rain but cleared up into a beautiful day prior to the ceremony.

As they say “you can’t get a rainbow without rain” and we did indeed capture a rainbow on the day.

Overall it was everything we ever dreamed of and more. It was absolutely perfect!

After honeymooning, Brad and Lisa returned to reside in Dubbo.

MEET THE BOSSES Bill, Robert and John Stevenson - Earlyrise Baking Company directors The business has grown a lot in 100 years, are you planning for the future?

JOHN: That’s all we think about!

BILL: We’re looking further ahead, what’s different, what’s new, where we’re going now.

ROBERT: We’ve had to change products. As the market changes you have to change and evolve with it, if you don’t you’re standing still and going backwards.

Is sourdough one of those products?

JOHN: I was making sourdough in 1993 and we couldn’t sell it. I used to have a few Polish people that used to come and buy it.

BILL: And Italians.

JOHN: I had a live sourdough culture going and you have to feed it all the time and look after it.

BILL: He’s still using it. Now it’s in demand.

What about the wholesale arm of your business, Earlyrise Baking Company?

BILL: In our wholesale market we’re supplying all caterers, schools, clubs, pubs, cafes, supermarket chains, Qantas; a whole range of customers.

JOHN: I’ve always said you’ve got to have excellent product. It doesn’t matter how big you get. You’ve got to make sure you can supply the demand but keep the quality and freshness. When you get to the point you can’t do that anymore, you’ve lost the plot.

Of the hundreds of awards you’ve won, what does the Emile Serisier Roll of Honour award mean to you?

ROBERT: I remember in the early days going to the Rhino’s and look-

ing at that award and thinking how prestigious it was. I thought, yeah, one day we might get there. Then when we were overseas and that happened, I thought, geez, we’re too young for this!

Then I thought, well, no, we have done a lot. I think I’m honoured to be on it.

JOHN: When you look back at all the people on the Roll, like Frank Brennan; they’ve all done a lot. To be in that pool of people... you do think, ‘Wow!’ How did your children feel about the award?

BILL: My daughter had to accept the award. We were away, and I said you’ll have to accept it and her reply was, ‘Dad, I’d love to do it.’ No hesitation.

JOHN: It’s a great moment for the kids. The difference with our business is that it’s generational. For us to invest all our time and effort into a business and then have the kids become part of it, have them grow up in the business, from sucking dummies to where they are now. They’ve learnt a lot along the way.

Is it hard to have so many in the family, working in the business?

BILL: Whenever we have a family dinner, it’s always about work (laughs). On Christmas Day, my wife says, ‘Right, no work talk today.’

What do you love about your jobs?

BILL: We’re driven I think. We’ve had that strong work ethic from a young age and we just enjoy work, we enjoy the bakery, we enjoy what we do. It’s a joy to come to work.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

HARNESS RACING

Gilgandra Cup and Windmill another huge success

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL WHEN the inaugural Gilgandra Cup meeting was held at this time last year, there was an immediate desire to keep it going.

Last Sunday confirmed organisers’ optimism and plans are already in place to bring the colourful event to Dubbo Paceway again in 2019.

“It was a fabulous day,” according to Graham Phipps from the organising committee.

“A few drops of rain followed by the wind and

dust just as we were kicking off probably scared a few people away but the spirits were up for those who came. Gilgandra and Tooraweenah Lions Clubs raised funds for the Cooee Cash Card Drought Relief initiative, families had fun and the racing was top class.”

Graham says owner-trainer Tony Higgs was over the moon when Count Montecristo claimed the unique Windmill trophy, and the Cup went to Bathurst with Emma Turnbull on board Tuapeka Glory

ARCHERY

Field Archers invite new members to try out

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL THE Dubbo & District Field Archers is open to all ages and levels of experience. On Sunday, November 25, members enjoyed the beautiful weather for the fortnightly shoot.

The club welcomes families to try a different sport and has equipment available for those who want to have a go.

The Field Archers operate in a bush setting range only 15 minutes from Dubbo on Hennessy Road.

At the bi-weekly shoot, archers enjoy 20 target rounds with a sausage sizzle lunch in the middle.

Meat is provided by Butchers On Macquarie to raise money for the club.

Field Archers is one of three archery clubs in Dubbo. 3D Archery meets every month, currently at the paintball range, and Indoor Archery meets each Wednesday evening in the Centenary Pavilion at Dubbo Showground.

This was the Dubbo & District Field Archersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; last shoot for the year and Mel went along to test his shooting skills. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit a target but got plenty of photos of those skilled bow hunters who did!

Archery resumes in the city in early February and Shoot Calendars will be published in late January.

If you would like any information please text or call the club President John Carpenter on 0427 574 243.

Henry Gordon Memorial bowling tournament

By DARCEE NIXON FOR the third year running, a memorial bowling tournament has been held to honour the legacy of Henry Gordon, a descendant of the Barkindji and Ngemba Nations.

Mr Gordon started his bowling career in Brewarrina, before playing at the West Dubbo and Railway Bowling Clubs when he moved to Dubbo.

He was well-known as a skilled player who displayed a high degree of sportsmanship both on and off the green. Fittingly, he was on the green just the day before his passing on May 16, 2016. His posthumous induction into the NSW Bowls Indigenous Hall of Fame cemented his legacy within the sport.

Gordon’s memorial tournament was held at Dubbo Railway Bowling Club on Saturday, November 24.

The two teams – the Indigenous All Stars and the Flying Stars – were Indigenous people representative of the first nations within the Western footprint, and non-Indigenous bowlers from the same region.

All money raised on the day was donated to The Heart Foundation.

WHITNEY CUP CRICKET

Another ton for Dunners!

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL NEWTOWN’S opening batsman Wayne Dunlop confirmed his status as the club’s leading centurion with a power-laden 142 against Souths on Saturday. The strongly-built batsman showed his full range of shots, clattering the new pickets 15 times and blasting 8 sixers into the park! Mitch Russo and Doug Potter lent their support with 40s before Dan Holland and Tom Barber chipped in with

3 wickets each to secure the win. Mitch Bower top-scored for Souths with 81.

CYMS maintained their momentum with an easy win against Macquarie. Experienced opener Stu Naden (85) combined with up-andcomer Tom Coady (70) to set the platform and each of the Cougars bowlers took two wickets!

In the final match, RSLColts ageless duo Wes Giddings (89) and Jason Ryan (44no) helped the red and whites to a 90-run win over Rugby.

CRICKET

Opening partnerships remembered

By GEOFF MANN FORMER Test opener Rick McCosker and NSW batsman Stuart Webster were all smiles at the Baggy Blues Dinner in Dubbo.

The pair were reminded of the day they opened the batting in a Tooheys Cup match in Rick’s home town of Inverell in 1977. The Test opener left early but “Webbers”, who grew up in Orange before representing NSW 23 times between 1972 and the 77/78 season, went on to make a hundred.

“I was building a fence,” Stu laughed as he analysed the scoresheet brought by one of the bowlers on that day.

“It took me a while to break the run of singles but then I found my range and hit the pickets a few times,” he smiled.

McCosker, of course, is remembered for his stunning, selfless performance in the Centenary test in Melbourne in 1977. The gritty batsman was felled by a bouncer from Bob Willis and fell on his stumps but showed extraordinary courage to return to the crease in the second innings to help

Australia record a memorable and historic win.

Rick’s younger brother Jim was Man of the Match in the first Dubbo Night Cricket final in the 1982/3 season.

“He won it for saving an RSL boundary that would have won the game and was carried off the field by his Rugby teammates!”

Stu of course found his way back out west after a stint in Newcastle and has been an incredible influence on the local Association. Apart from his tremendous batting record in the Whitney Cup and rep teams, he has mentored many promising juniors including State players Nathan Pilon and Don Nash and future Sydney first grade captains David Carson (UNSW) and David Taylor (Penrith).

Another of the Blues legends who played in the Tooheys match at Inverell was wicketkeeper, Steve “Stumper” Rixon.

CRICKET

Narromine cricket THE Glenn McGrath Nets in Narromine are set to be completely overhauled following news of successful grant applications by the local Cricket Association.

Narromine Junior Cricket Association President Dwayne Kent says the nets have been in poor condition for a number of seasons, but with the injection of funds from the NSW World ICC T20 Legacy Fund and other sources, a refresh is on the way.

“Narromine Shire Council will receive $37,973 for the redevelopment of the Glenn McGrath Nets, which will be moved to Dundas Park. It is a massive boost for the game in our town.

We may even be able to reform our senior competition once people begin to train in topclass facilities and realise the quality of our grounds,” Dwayne said.

If all goes to plan, Glenn McGrath might be home to send down a few on the redeveloped net complex.

“Pigeon” is a national treasure so any time he comes home, the whole town flocks to catch up.

Hopefully he can show some of the youngsters how to bowl line and length and work out a batsman’s weaknesses.

Treat your loved ones to a magical Christmas lights tour!

Big shoes to fill

By GEOFF MANN “I am humbled that the NSW Country selectors consider me to be in the same league as Tim Cox and Jordan Moran,” Ben Patterson remarked when he was told of his selection for the Australian Country Cricket Championships next year.

Jordan left his mark with an unbeaten double century in the grand final and played a huge role in the Bush Blues win.

He overcame a broken thumb to prove his mettle earlier this year.

“Tim Cox is an absolute legend. He set the platform for Jordan when he was named NSW Country Cricketer of the Year. Jordo followed up two years ago, so I really have some big boots to fill,” he said with admiration for the two Dubbo champions.

Patto has earned his place with his crisp batting and explosive pace.

“My batting has probably taken over in recent years. I started off as a fast bowler who liked to hit the ball in the lower order, but after I hurt my back playing with Hawkesbury and St George in the Sydney grade competition, I was able to concentrate more on wielding the stick,” he laughed.

And wield it with power and precision he does!

In last week’s Baggy Blues challenge, Patto smashed the first ball for six and followed up with three more in the same over, racing to 53 from just 23 deliveries before heading back to the stand.

“I have had some handy performances over the past few years. Last year I was with Rugby and this season I’ve returned to my junior club, Newtown. I love play-

ing club cricket with my mates, but I know if I am to reach my goals of playing first class level, I will need to head back to Sydney.”

Ben is playing T20 with Campbelltown in the Sydney competition now but hopes to be back “in the smoke” on a more permanent basis before too long.

Michael Slater’s renowned coach Warren “Wazza” Smith and former NSW captains Rick McCosker and Steve Rixon all agreed that Patto “must be in Sydney”.

“He has oodles of talent but it will never be fulfilled playing out in the bush,” Wazza remarked.

“He is a clean striker, he’s got plenty of energy in the field and bowls at a lively pace. I’d be happy to have him with me at UNSW and in the Blues training squads."

Ben says the secret to his batting suc-

cess is his willingness to play his shots right from the start.

“I love to hit the ball over the fence!

If it is in the slot I will hit it, but I know that to do that I have to practice, practice, practice. That’s what I have done with my reverse sweep and now I can play it much more easily than the traditional version of the shot,” he said confidently.

Ben and the NSW team head to Shepparton on January 2 for ten days of competition against all states and territories.

“They will pick an Australian Country team at the end of the carnival. I aim to score enough runs and take so many wickets that I am selected to follow in the footsteps of Jordan and Tim and former star, David Tink, who played several years for NSW and in the Australian Country team.”
