CAMO REVEAL

By LYDIA PEDRANA

THE facade of the Bunnings building proposed for Dubbo’s former RAAF Stores Base would pay homage to the paint scheme on the giant storage facilities 80 years ago.

Unlike any other Bunnings Warehouse in the country, the outside of the $30 million hardware store would be painted in a camouflage design as a throwback to the original igloos.

Applicant for the Bunnings development and director of Igloo 5 Pty Ltd, Mark Stanford, said as the site is redeveloped for adaptive reuse, the project team want to design buildings that give a nod to the base’s history.

IN BRIEF

2020 organ donation outcomes released show urgent need

EDUCATION

Schools fast forward to future learning

NATIONAL organ donation and transplant data for 2020, released by the federal Minister responsible for the Organ and Tissue Authority, Mark Coulton, shows while Australia’s donation rate has doubled over the past decade, the national program took a hit in 2020 due to COVID-19.

“Last year saw a 12 per cent reduction in the number of people receiving a transplant and a 16 per cent decrease in organ donors, compared to 2019,” Mr Coulton said.

“Most significantly, 18 per cent fewer kidney transplants were performed, resulting in 153 fewer renal patients receiving the kidney transplant they need.

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY DUBBO College students at Delroy, South and Senior are already reaping the rewards of a record-breaking investment in regional digital education.

The NSW Government is rolling out a $365.8 million Rural Access Gap investment, providing rural and regional schools with interactive panels, laptops for teaching staff and additional student devices.

Dubbo College Executive Prin-

cipal Mr. Charles Gauci said the involvement of Dubbo College in the pilot phase of the program has provided students and teachers access to cutting edge 21st Century teaching and learning.

“It also concentrates resources on the upskilling of teachers to fully utilise the technology in their teaching practice,” Mr. Gauci said.

‘Digital Classroom Officers’ for each campus have been instated.

The officers will receive specialist training with digital technologies in the classroom and will lead and

coach their fellow teachers to help deliver an innovative curriculum to students.

Dubbo South Campus Principal, Linda Macleod, Delroy Campus Principal Debbie Head and Senior Campus reliving Principal Marisha Blanco have all praised the upgrade.

“The introduction of this improved technology into every classroom will assist with our future focus learning,” Ms. Macleod said.

“It means all of our classroom

spaces now have new interactive panels to bring modern learning techniques to the forefront of our teaching – allowing us to really make an impact on the educational outcomes of our students” Mrs. Head said.

“We’re proud to provide the best curriculum offering and state of the art classrooms for our stage 6 students, preparing them for the HSC and into the future.” Miss Blanco said.

RIVER STREET BRIDGE

Bridge debate date set

By LYDIA PEDRANA THE Parliamentary debate on Dubbo’s controversial River Street Bridge will begin on Thursday, March 18, it can be revealed.

The debate comes after more than 10,000 people signed a petition asking for a bypass option to be fully explored.

Parties from both sides of the debate remain confident their arguments will prevail.

A strong proponent for the River Street Bridge, Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders told Dubbo Photo News he looks “forward to being involved in the debate relating to the project when it comes before the Parliament”.

Meanwhile, opponents are hopeful the growing public pressure against the bridge will be recognised.

Member of the Stop The River Street Bridge Coalition, Karina McLachlain, feels the group has made progress with their campaign and she said they’re positive about the upcoming hearing.

“We are very much looking forward to it and some of us are going to be travelling down there as well. We also have some supporters in Sydney, like truck companies and other organisations, and it’s always very busy in trucking, but some of them have said they will come along as well,” she said.

“We have no illusions that the petition will necessarily change the government’s mind, but they’ll have to acknowledge that a large section of the community, the majority of the community, are actually against the project and no matter how much they repeat over and over again that it will provide

another flood-proof crossing and improve congestion and all this sort of stuff, it doesn’t matter how much they repeat that, nobody believes it.”

Mr Saunders also explained his absence from last Wednesday’s protest against the project which saw a convoy of trucks take to Dubbo’s streets.

He said he had locked in commitments prior to being invited by shadow regional transport minister David Harris, less than a week before the demonstration took place.

“I wasn’t invited by the organisers of the convoy to take part in the event, rather the opposition spokesperson for regional transport sent me an email on the Thursday prior,” he said.

“By that stage I had confirmed my attendance at other meetings

and events.”

However, Ms McLachlain rejects Mr Saunders explanation, instead accusing the MP of a lack of care for the matter.

“We actually asked David Harris to invite him on our behalf,” she said.

“We also don’t believe that he wasn’t available, one because he had a lengthy interview on 2DU the same morning while he could have been at the convoy, and shortly after the convoy, he had a lengthy interview with Channel Nine out the front of his office, so if he was really that busy, we don’t believe it.

“We believe he didn’t go because he doesn’t care, he doesn’t care about truck drivers, he doesn’t care about the motorists in Dubbo, he is putting forward a project that is going to make con-

gestion and road safety last while claiming the opposite, and if he turned up he would have got the evidence that his claims are complete rubbish.”

Dubbo Photo News can also confirm that Mr Harris will lead the opposition as first speaker in the debate, followed by Barwon MP and member of the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers party, Roy Butler, as second speaker.

The third opposition speaker and line-up for the affirmative side are yet to be announced.

CONSERVATION

TRIVIA TEST

Wandering the Western Plains

By JOHN RYAN ONE of the cutest but critically endangered Australian species is enjoying a resurgence at Dubbo’s Taronga Western Plains Zoo. Plains-wanderer keeper Stephanie Sim said four chicks were hatched from two separate clutches late last year.

“2020 was a really successful year for our Plains-wanderer conservation breeding program with four successful clutches hatching a total of 10 chicks for the year,” she said.

“The chicks that hatched in December are the second generation to be born at Taronga Western Plains Zoo, with the mothers of both clutches hatching here in Dubbo just last year in March 2020.”

Plains-wanderers can breed all year round provided the conditions are favourable, but the species generally favours spring and summer as their peak breeding seasons. They often hatch two to four chicks from up to five eggs in a clutch and the new bubs are fully independent after about two months.

“Plains-wanderer are a naturally timid species and initiate a freeze response at any sign of disturbance, so we monitor the rearing of the chicks via CCTV,” she said.

“We have been really happy with the growth and development of all four chicks to date, both dads are doing a great job raising

and caring for their chicks.”

Once these latest chicks are fully grown and independent, they will be paired with other unrelated individuals and join the conservation breeding program at Dubbo’s zoo and staff are hopeful that the breeding success of 2020 will continue into 2021 to

help grow the ‘insurance’ population for this critically endangered species.

Incredibly, it’s estimated there could be as few as 500 Plains-wanderers remaining in the wild, so every chick that hatches is vital to the long-term survival of the species.

The breeding program is a collaboration under the Saving Our Species (SOS) program aimed at maintaining an insurance population against extinction in the wild, as well as to maintain a healthy genetic population that will boost wild populations in managed habitat.

Government funds new treatment for rare heart and lung disease A NEW oral treatment for a rare heart and lung disease became available on February 1, under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) for people living with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

PAH presents with non-specific symptoms that can be indicative of any number of medical conditions such as shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, chest discomfort or pain.

It’s estimated up to 3,800 Australians have PAH but only around 2,300 are diagnosed.

“Living with PAH can mean difficulty carrying out day-to-day tasks, work, travel and social opportunities. This can have a major impact on patients’ functioning and physical, psychological and social wellbeing,” Lung Foundation Australia CEO Mark Brooke said.

CORRECTION THE headline in the Meet the Volunteer column in Dubbo Photo News on February 4, page 18, featuring volunteer Julie Wilson, was incorrect. It named her as ‘June’.

IN BRIEF

Balancing the scales

Good news for electric vehicle owners after Victorians reject tax

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

WHEN former St John’s College and Dubbo South High School student Nicole Ford was in Year 10, she did two week’s work experience; one at the hospital and one for a law firm.

“After that I thought the law seemed like a better option than medicine – I didn’t have a strong stomach!” she told Dubbo Photo News.

That early gut instinct paid off, seeing her appointed last week as a Local Court magistrate.

“When I first commenced my legal career, it wasn’t my goal to become a magistrate. At that time, I was just so pleased to have graduated with a law degree and to have found employment as a solicitor.

“Later in my career, after I started working for Legal Aid, one of my managers told me he thought I would be suitable for the role and really gave me the confidence to consider it as a possibility.

“The appointment means an opportunity to serve the people of NSW in a different way to my previous roles. It is an honour to be recognised as someone suitable for such an important role,” Magistrate Ford said.

The Attorney General Mark Speakman had called her before Christmas to ask if she would be happy for him to forward her name to Cabinet for a magisterial appointment.

“It made for a very happy but strange Christmas as I wasn’t able to share the news until my name had gone to Cabinet and the Executive Council had signed off on the appointment on February 3.”

When the news could finally be announced to her family, her parents and children were ecstatic.

“Of course, they have always had faith in me and said they knew it would happen one day.

My sister and I are close as there are only the two of us and she was so pleased for me.”

Mum, Gai, told Dubbo Photo News she didn’t know whether she cried in that moment, but she did cry afterwards.

“I knew it was something she wanted, and it’s been a long time coming. It’s as my son-in-law said, there’s another overnight success of 25 years. She will be very good at it. She’s a strong lady. We’re absolutely delighted.

“It’s also been wonderful hearing from so many family and friends that we haven’t heard from in a long time. It’s lovely everyone’s been so very happy for her.” Gai Ford will be even more delighted on her birthday – that’s the day her daughter will be sworn in as a magistrate with the family in attendance.

During her 25-year overnight success, Magistrate Ford had been managing and mentoring lawyers.

“That will be something that I will miss but I am looking for-

ward to being in the courtroom every day and to the pace of my work being different.”

She is also very proud that all of her career was built working in regional NSW. “My career has been entirely in regional NSW. Now, more than ever, we live in a world where you can have the same opportunities in regional areas that we once thought would only come if you worked in metropolitan cities.

“I am really proud to not only have completed my schooling in Dubbo but to have spent my career to date in regional NSW.” It’s also significant that Ms Ford’s appointment – along with four other women – gives the magistrate pool a gender balance of almost 50 per cent.

“A gender-balanced judiciary is more reflective of our community.

This is important because magistrates and judges make decisions that have a significant impact on the lives of so many people within our community.

“It is also important for the legal profession that gender is not seen as a barrier to certain careers – including judicial roles. I have been fortunate in that I have never seen my gender as a barrier in my career.

“I am sure that is, in part, due to my generation and my good fortune to have worked for progressive and flexible employers, both in private practice and with Legal Aid.”

Former Dubbo resident Nicole Ford, has been appointed as a Local Court Magistrate. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

For young women – and men – in Dubbo contemplating a similar career path Ms Ford says, “Absolutely – you can do it.

“Nothing beats hard work and putting your hand up when an opportunity comes along – don’t wait for the right time. Ask questions and accept all the support and guidance people offer.”

Magistrate Ford’s first appointment will be in the Sydney Local Courts.

“I expect that the first few years will be a time when I will learn a lot. I have been in my previous role as Solicitor in Charge of Legal Aid (Riverina) for almost 12 years, so I am looking forward a new challenge.”

A POLL of 2000 people has revealed significant cross-party support for the electric vehicle industry with almost 80 per cent agreeing it was important for the Victorian government to encourage the take up of electric and non-polluting vehicles.

Almost two thirds of those polled also said they would like to see cash incentives rolled out to make electric vehicles more affordable.

The Electric Vehicle Council said the results clearly demonstrated that the Victorian Government’s plans to introduce a tax on electric vehicles was way off track.

The NSW Government is considering a tax on electric vehicles to make up for lost fuel excise revenue amid fears it will hinder the low emissions mode of transport.

Driving home a message

Cybersecurity inquiry highlights State’s failure to protect information

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

“YOUR driver’s licence is not safe.

Your personal information is not safe. The Premier needs to step in and take control.”

That’s the message from Shadow Minister for Better Public Services Sophie Cotsis after a parliamentary inquiry into Cybersecurity confirmed the state government knew Service NSW data breaches were imminent before they occurred.

Deputy Auditor-General Ian Goodwin told the inquiry the coalition knew Service NSW was vulnerable to attack at least 12 months before the data breach in March last year.

The inquiry also heard Cyber Security NSW doesn’t know how many government agencies have citizen data held by private companies or whether the data is held in Australia or overseas.

“Every person in NSW is vulnerable to ID theft from a lazy Government that knew a year before the cyber-attack that they had dud data security,” she said.

“We demand that banks protect our personal information, yet the NSW Government doesn’t uphold the same standards.”

TRAVELLERS on the Newell Highway will see a billboard near Peak Hill featuring the work of Aboriginal Danish artist Sharon Smith.

It is one of nine billboard artworks installed on major highways around NSW designed to increase awareness about the traditional lands of First Nations people.

Descendant of the Wiradjuri tribe of western New South Wales, Sharon has created an artwork titled The Three Rivers which represents Wiradjuri Country.

“Wiradjuri is known as the land of the three rivers because of the rivers that make up the area – the Wambool (Macquarie River), the Kalare (Lachlan River) and the Murrumbidjeri (Murrumbidgee River),” Ms Smith said.

“My artwork is based on my childhood memories of visiting the three rivers of Wiradjuri country and hearing the colourful stories being passed down from my elders. It gives

me and my ancestors a stronger voice and a unique way to connect with other members of the community.”

NRMA Insurance Manager for Indigenous Engagement Phil Lockyer said the artworks are a great way for people to learn more about the traditional lands they’re driving through, and the 50,000-plus years of First Nations history and heritage in NSW. “The artwork is designed to create awareness and help drivers connect with the land as they pass through and contribute to a proud and shared national identity for all Australians, while reminding everyone to drive safely on the roads.

Other billboards are located at Banora Point, Heathcote,

Greystanes, Kempsey, Tamworth, Singleton, Bega and Wagga Wagga.

NRMA Insurance is a proud supporter of First Nations communities and the Reconciliation movement in Australia.

In February 2019, NRMA Insurance parent company IAG launched an Elevate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), its third RAP. The RAP outlines commitments including providing employment and internship opportunities to First Nations people and supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses.

The billboards are the result of a partnership between the NRMA, Local Aboriginal Land Councils and Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Co-operative.

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY FOR the trauma young Durakai Smith and his family have been through since a motorcycle accident last August almost claimed his life, it’s exciting to see the seven-year-old easing back into Year 1 school life and contemplating the wonders of a loose tooth, but the road ahead still involves visits to Sydney for treatment, made easier thanks to Little Wings.

Little Wings is a non-profit organisation giving sick children and their families throughout regional NSW free ongoing flight and ground transport during the treatment process. “Since the accident Durakai has a 15-minute attention span and separately, our one-year-old daughter Keirajarli also has hip

dysplasia and bowel problems.

They’re both patients,� mum, Brinae Smith said. “The first time we drove home from Sydney we had to keep stopping every hour because Durakai physically couldn’t be in the car that long,� she said. “I didn’t know about Little Wings, and I guess you don’t know until you’re in that situation, until you know how many times you have to go back. Another parent told me about it. “I’d like people to know there is a charity out there they can donate to – and there’s a fundraiser at the Dubbo RSL Club coming up – so they can spread the word.

Without Little Wings, I don’t know how we’d do it,� Mrs Smith said.

For both children, further trips to Sydney are needed every three

months but since having a Little Wings experience, those essential visits no longer need to involve a car. “When we flew with Little Wings, David was our pilot. He’s a volunteer and he was lovely. He walked us all the way to the plane and helped carry our stuff; he met all our family. He made us feel very comfortable. It was good to have that relief,� Mrs Smith said.

On arrival in Sydney, another volunteer was waiting on the ground to welcome the fami-

ly and take them to Ronald McDonald house – complete with car seats and drinks for the kids. “He drove us straight to Ronald McDonald. It just took the stress out of having to organise your own flight, how you’re going to get there, then Durakai with his attention span, Keirajarli with her dislocated hips. It was just good to have the relief.�

Durakai is also looking forward to the next flight, recalling the pilot gave him chocolate Tiny Teddy’s. “Mum and Keirajarli were asleep but I was still awake.

NSW LABOR is demanding the state coalition government takes urgent action to fix the healthcare crisis in rural and regional NSW that is leaving women at risk.

It comes after 700 people from regional and rural communities made harrowing submissions to the Parliamentary Inquiry into Rural and Regional Healthcare, highlighting systemic issues impacting on women living in these areas.

In a detailed submission from Family Planning NSW (No 107), the Inquiry was told women are experiencing poorer reproductive and sexual health outcomes. This includes higher teenage fertility rates, higher maternal death and higher rates of sexually transmitted diseases (STIs).

Of great concern, women have lower rates of cervical cancer screening. Yet between 2012-2016, Far West LHD & Western NSW had the highest incidence rates of cervical cancer.

The Shadow Minister for Health Ryan Park said it was clear that the Government has failed to invest in healthcare in rural and regional NSW. “No wonder the Government didn’t want this Inquiry to go ahead. These are the stories they didn’t want to be told. “These reports show we have a health and hospital system in crisis in NSW. Women should have access to good quality services regardless of where they live.�

New Bunnings design tips hat to history E XC L U S I V E !

By LYDIA PEDRANA THE facade of the Bunnings building proposed for Dubbo’s former RAAF Stores Base would pay homage to the paint scheme on the giant storage facilities 80 years ago.

Unlike any other Bunnings Warehouse in the country, the outside of $30 million hardware store would be painted in a camouflage design as a throwback to the original igloos.

Applicant for the Bunnings development and director of Igloo 5 Pty Ltd, Mark Stanford, said as the site is redeveloped for adaptive reuse, the project team want to design buildings that give a nod to the base’s history. “The proposed Bunnings building with camouflage details complements the original large, isolated building layout and maintains the sense of scale and industrialisation of warehousing and construction,� he told Dubbo Photo News.

A black and white aerial photo taken on February 14, 1944 shows a bird’s eye view of the site and the five, camouflaged, igloo-shaped stores.

An architectural render of the proposed Bunnings Warehouse building reveals a similar camouflage design, executed using the well-known Bunnings colour scheme.

According to Mr Stanford, the original igloo store buildings had jagged edge roof profiles and barrel-vaulted ceilings to cast broken shadows.

The camo paint was to resemble hills. “The site was a coherent 1940s cultural landscape that combined forestry remnants with the careful placement of large buildings to result in a site that was innovatively camouflaged to reduce the risk of aerial attack,� he said. “As the only World War II stores depot to remain in military service until the 1990s, the former RAAF Stores Depot is important for its historic association with the development of Australia’s defence over 50 years. “The site also has heritage significance for its association with Aboriginal relics, previous forestry uses of the landscape and its use as a makeshift camp during the Great Depression.�

In terms of size and the amount of stock held, the Dubbo RAAF Stores Depot was the largest in Australia.

After the war, a delegation from the Dubbo Chamber of Commerce inspected the site and was advised that the total cost of construction has been over ÂŁ300,000, which is approximately $10.9 million in today’s money. “It is a big 38-hectare site, and it needs big business,â€? Mr Stanford said. “The RAAF base had a significant contribution to Dubbo in the 1940’s and Bunnings will have a significant contribution to Dubbo in the 2020’s.â€?

A development application for the new facility, which will be 17,500 square metres and include a 500-space car park, was lodged with Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) last month and if approved, it would replace the existing Bunnings, currently located on Sheraton Road.

GUESSING GAME

FUTURE OF CURRENT BUNNINGS SITE

By LYDIA PEDRANA WITH a move into town on the cards for Bunnings Warehouse, it begs the question: what will take its place at the Sheraton Road site?

A Facebook post by another news organisation attracted more than 500 comments with the top suggestions from locals being IKEA or Costco.

Another popular choice was an indoor sports complex with activities such as go-karting, rock climbing and adventure courses.

But despite local enthusiasm, the future of the site still hangs in the balance with property owners remaining tight lipped about plans.

Michael Wedgwood, managing direc-

tor of BWP Management Limited, the owners of the land the hardware store currently sits on, said there is still a longterm lease in place with Bunnings. “We are not in a position to talk about the future use of the property at this point in time,� Mr Wedgwood told Dubbo Photo News. “In the event that Bunnings does move out at some point in the future, we will investigate all available options for re-purposing the site.�

If the application for a $30 million Bunnings at the RAAF Stores Base is approved, what would you like to see on the old site?

SOLAR SOARS

Record year for rooftop solar

By LYDIA PEDRANA AUSTRALIAN solar was one industry that managed to thrive through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic with data revealing a record-breaking 5,000 megawatts of solar power was installed in 2020.

That’s equivalent to almost 15 million solar panels, bringing the country’s total solar capacity to 20,000 megawatts according to new research by solar industry consultancy SunWiz. Dubbo electrician and solar installation specialist, Mick Edwards, from JME Electrical and Solar said many locals decided to make the switch to solar when the pandemic hit with many looking to decrease electricity bills.

“We saw lots of people opting to install solar from April onwards last year,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

“A lot of the comments we got (from customers) were around, ‘well, we can’t spend it on holidays, we may as well spend it on solar,’ and there were other people who had changed from working in an office environment to working from home and had seen an increase in their energy consumption and costs, so they were looking to offset that.

“But also, just the fact that solar is getting cheaper and cheaper and becoming a more mature technology that people trust, I guess there is so much social

Mick Edwards from JME Electrical and Solar said requests for solar energy surged as the pandemic hit in April last year. Photo supplied.

proof around now because they can see that their friends have been their guinea pigs for the last few years, so now they are finally doing something about it.”

Working with solar since 2009, Mr Edwards said today, renewables account for a large per centage of JME’s total business.

“Probably 80 per cent of our work is solar related so whether it’s grid connect systems for

homes or businesses or farms, or whether it’s off-grid power, say for remote power applications pumping caravans and that sort of stuff,” he explained.

“We are also starting to see some customer attitudes change, they are realising that cheap doesn’t always mean good, so that’s been a positive shift.

“There’s still a lot of people sucked in by the specials with ce-

lebrity endorsements that they see on TV, we fix a lot of those sorts of systems, but people are starting to realise that if you pay once, that’s a smarter way of spending money.”

In terms of the financial benefits of sun-fuelled energy, Mr Edwards estimates households can save around $100 per kilowatt of solar.

“So, if you have a five-kilowatt system, you can expect to save on average around $500, as a conservative estimate, per bill or quarter.”

Although household solar thrived through COVID, commercial growth in Australia slowed as businesses and the economy suffered the pandemic impacts.

Despite this, SunWiz managing director, Warwick Johnston is confident the industry will continue to boom this year.

“It’s an exceptional time to be working anywhere in the Australian rooftop solar supply chain, and things will only get better as solar system prices continue to hit record lows and momentum builds on reducing emissions to tackle climate change,” he said.

“While we need policies that ensure every household can connect solar to the grid and ideally make it simpler and more affordable for renters across the country to install solar panels – similar to what is underway in Victoria, 2021 looks to be another bright year for solar.”

Temporary traffics lights at western end of LH Ford Bridge

TRAFFIC using the western end of the LH Ford Bridge are advised that works to remove the existing concrete roundabout will continue until Thursday, February 18, weather permitting.

Traffic control will be in place during work hours and outside these times, the intersection will continue to operate as a roundabout until temporary traffic signals are switched on in mid-March.

Work will be carried out from 7pm to 6am on weekdays and from 8am to 5pm on Saturdays.

Every effort will be made to minimise disturbance to residents by turning off machinery and vehicles when not in use.

Nearly one million young workers’ super closed or drained

NEARLY one million young workers under the age of 35 have either closed their super accounts or now have less than $1000 in super as a result of the COVID Early Release Scheme, according to analysis by the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST).

In addition, over 73,000 Australians lost insurance cover linked to their account.

“Young women, in particular, will struggle to make up the COVID savings gap as many will be entering the phase of their life when they take a career break to have children and their employer super contributions are on hold,” she said.

Kintyre Lodge nursing staff on duty 24/7 Kintyre Lodge is a leader in residential aged care , ensuring there are qualified Registered Nurses (RN) and Enrolled Nurses (EN) on duty 24 hours a day to provide the quality and standard of care Kintyre and family members expect.

“At Kintyre we have a really strong focus on high quality clinical care. We have a care manager and clinical leader who are Registered Nurses leading the team. We also have RNs on all shifts, 24/7, supported by ENs and Personal Care Workers (PCWs),” Kintyre Living Customer Liaison Manager Danielle Chapman said.

“We also offer physiotherapy Monday to Friday and scheduled podiatry services. We take great pride in the high quality personal care that we provide. That sets us well ahead in Dubbo to ensure all the residents are fully supported as far as their clinical and also, their emotional and wellbeing needs.

Our team also includes a Quality Officer who oversees staff training and education programs and also works with our Clinical Consultant to monitor our clinical governance.

Kintyre Lodge Care Manager and registered nurse Dulan Weerasinghage oversees all staff working in the facility, including the Memory Care Wing.

“I look after the clinical side of care for our residents and ensure my staff’s responsibilities are fulfilled to maintain a high standard including resident care needs such as medication management, personal care and dietary but also social, emotional, psychological well-being,” he said.

“What’s special about Kintyre is that we provide 24/7 clinical care and we have included quality benefits to the residents such as nurses who trained to work with people living with dementia.

“Our nurses are not just providing the clinical care, but also

emotional and psychological wellbeing by participating on a daily basis with residents in their activities. “Especially with COVID restrictions it has been isolating for residents, so maintaining their emotional wellbeing has been our priority,” he said.

“It’s a big decision to come into aged care so we make sure this is their home. It is their home, and we come into their home to work, that’s what we believe. That’s our priority always.”

“Some people believe when their family member comes into aged care; they decline quite a lot. What’s special about Kintyre is that we try to change that and improve in terms of mobility and cognition, so we have two physiotherapists permanently here Monday to Friday, making sure residents’ mobility is maintained and they’re engaged in physical exercise.”

Supporting Dulan in overseeing care workers is clinical leader and registered nurse Kusum PC. “I support the care manager’s role and the clinical staff, RNs

and care staff. I mainly work with the RNs to support their daily activities. Including me, we have six RNs on staff.”

Working directly with personal care staff, registered nurse Amrita Roka Baruwal oversees the delivery of residents’ personal care, resident activities and is also qualified to give medical supervision as required.

“What sets us apart, is that not all facilities can offer the high degree of clinical care and the number of RNs that we have on staff. That’s our norm, but more broadly, it is an exception,” Ms Chapman said.

COMING CLEAN

Clean machine

By JOHN RYAN GOWER carpet cleaning and restoration, Vanessa and Zac Steve Gower is often seen zipping around Dubbo in his work van and 2021 marks his 40th year working in the carpet industry.

He said when he started out Australia was a very different work environment.

“I left school at 16 and like every young fellow of my age back then I was wanting a trade and 40 years ago you didn’t have choices, you took what you could get, and I had no idea about carpet laying at all, but I got a start and it just went from there,” Mr Gower told Dubbo Photo News.

“I did my apprenticeship and went on to work for myself as a subcontractor and then the body started to tell me I needed to do other things and just luckily I had a carpet cleaning catalogue sent to me as a mail out and then I bought some equipment six months later and then just went from there.

“I went back and did one training course after another which was all accredited in carpet cleaning, upholstery, every aspect of our business I’ve done some form of training which is accredited, there’s exams involved and things like that.”

He said he had no idea as a 16-yearold school leaver that he’d be working in the carpet industry 40 years later.

“That’s exactly right and what’s happened is the business has kept transitioning and one bit of advice I had when I was a young bloke, my boss at the time he said to me ‘stick with what you know’ and that reso-

nated with me,” he said, explaining that his career has moved one logical step at a time.

“There’s actually a real science behind cleaning carpet, more so than just spraying a bit of stuff on and sucking it out, there’s a lot involved, and you need lots of different products for all the different situations and stains, so it’s not just a one thing fixes all scenarios, so you need to learn that science behind it.”

He said he enjoys his job, and he says relationship building is a core value of his business – many people he laid carpet for decades ago still get him to clean their carpets.

“There’s days, like everybody, you go ‘wow’, what am I doing this for and there’s other days when you come across magnificent people, very interesting people, I love talking to people and getting to know them, they’re not just customers to me, they’re people I want to get to know and build relationships with.

“An integral part of the business, it’s not all about me, my wife Vanessa, she’s the one who answers the phone, she deals with all the customers, the paperwork side of things, the back office stuff, which is the downfall of most tradies, that they don’t get that back office stuff under control.

“My son Zac is 21 now and he’s been working for me since he was 12-years-old and he loves the restoration side of work – he’s in his last year of a plumbing apprenticeship and if I need an offsider, he’s trained in water-damaged restoration and structural drying and he knows all those aspects of the business and he does take a pride in his work.”

Steve Gower says his 40 years dealing with carpets has seen a natural progression from laying the floor coverings to cleaning them for things like storm, sewerage, flood or mould damage.

DESK ORGANISATION

Tips on creating a workable workspace

By LYDIA PEDRANA

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

WE’VE all heard the saying, ‘tidy home, tidy mind,’ and that includes your work desk.

Sophie Le from global stationary company Pilot Pen has shared her top tips for organising your workspace to help you work effectively, whether it’s from home or in the office.

Firstly, Ms Le recommends making your desk both visually appealing but also as practical as possible.

“Place your most used items at the centre of your desk so they are at arm’s reach the moment you sit down,” she said.

“Have three pens you always love using? Pop them into a cute cup and put away anything you don’t use as often.

“Choose the path of least resistance by reducing unnecessary clutter.”

If you find yourself struggling to stay focused, Ms Le recommends implementing Ryder Carroll’s Bullet Journal Method which is described as “mindfulness practice disguised as a productivity system.

“It is a super flexible way of not only organising your tasks but also encourages you to reflect and engage with any thoughts or details that are significant to you throughout the day,” she said.

Tracking your goals can also help you feel fulfilled and productive.

“Creating a simple tracker page helps you stick to your work and personal goals, whether it be building healthy habits like drinking more water or seeing how close you are to saving enough money for a holiday,” Ms Le explained.

“Not only do you get instant gratification every time you mark something off but you also get a clearer idea of the progress you’ve made.”

To further pretty up your space, Ms Le suggests having a plant on your desk to help create calm, while an inspiration board filled with photos, quotes and souvenirs can help maintain motivation.

Lastly, and arguably most importantly, make time for yourself by scheduling in breaks.

“Make sure your block out time in your diary for lunch, a walk, or a quick stretch,” she said.

“This gives you the opportunity to set expectations of what you can realistically do in one day, manage your energy levels, re-evaluate your priorities and increase productivity overall.”

Mitch Hodder says he loves saving trees but if they have to come out, it requires careful planning to ensure they’re removed safely and without injuring any of his team or neighbouring property. PHOTOS:

Saving trees plus community work

By JOHN RYAN THE owner of Dubbo Tree Service, Mitch Hodder, says that as an arborist he gets great pleasure when he can save a tree that others thought would have to be chopped down “I love that sort of work and I love being able to give people that option,” Mr Hodder told Dubbo Photo News.

“I think, save a tree wherever you can, obviously you’ve got to weigh up the risks, say if that tree’s mature, it might not last, but can we cut it back, can we try to prevent heavy limbs from falling, you know, if it’s out in the paddock, leave it, if it’s next to the house, let’s see if we can trim it, whatever we can do to try and preserve as many trees as we can.”

And he says while being able to tell people he can save their trees gives him great pleasure, it’s also the most rewarding way to make clients happy.

“Oh, definitely, yep, and you know it’s not just the value of the tree to the environment, it’s also the value of the tree to them, they may have had that tree in their yard for a long time, maybe their

grandfather planted it, maybe their late husband planted it, it has that sentimental value, and it means more to them than just being a tree.”

Mr Hodder says the philosophy around his business is as important to him as the actual work itself.

“I love coming to work, I honestly do, and I’ve got a good team, we all get along really well and having a happy work environment for me is probably the key part of my business, you’ve got be happy to be there, you’ve got to be happy to be at work together, you know, positive attitude, it just makes the day go heaps easier,” he said.

I’m glad I moved back to Dubbo, it’s a great place, I love it, it’s a good community here, I’ve got a good network of family and friends, it’s a small town, good schools, affordable housing, I love it, what more could you ask for,” and he says his most rewarding job in the three years he’s owned the business was working at restoring Jinchilla Gardens.

“Helping the Tubba-Gah Corporation try to restore that place and get it back in good shape, I loved that, it’s probably the highlight of

And there seem to be plenty of community organisations who have benefited from his assistance.

Walan Community Garden recently praised Mr Hodder for dropping some free woodchips off and then coming back after the working day was done to spread not only his woodchips, but also woodchips donated by fellow arborist Shannon Hart from Arbortec Tree Service.

Mister Hodder says he’s so glad he moved back to Dubbo after a stint in Sydney.

“When I left school, I went and

worked for dad doing landscaping and putting in swimming pools and then I moved to Sydney and did a bit of construction labouring and I had a lawnmowing business down there around the Fivedock/ Abbotsford area on the water,” he said.

“I wanted to buy a house but it was too expensive in Sydney so I moved back to Dubbo and bought a house when they did the Gordon Estate makeover, I originally had a lawnmowing business, but I wanted something more career-based, something that would be long term for me.”

He said he enjoys the mix of physical work outdoors with the challenges of not only running his own business, but also using his brains to make everything happen on a daily basis in an industry which is far more complex than just knowing how to start a chainsaw.

“Every day we’re working with uncalculated risks, you know, in any other industry you can calculate how that piece of steel is, what weight it can take, whereas we’re just constantly taking uncalculated risks and hoping things are going to go the right way.”

ASTRONOMERS at Coonabarabran’s Siding Springs Observatory have spent the last seven years turning their telescope towards more than 3000 galaxies in a bid to better understand them, and at the same time enhance the understanding of our own Milky Way. Results so far have allowed astronomers from around the world to explore how these galaxies interacted with each other, and how they grew, sped up or slowed down over time.

The SAMI galaxy survey has involved the 4-meter Anglo-Australian Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory.

“The SAMI survey lets us see the actual internal structures of galaxies, and the results have been surprising,” ASTRO 3D and the University of Sydney lead author Professor Scott Croom said.

“The nature of galaxies depends both on how massive they are and their environment. For example, they can be lonely in voids, or crowded into the dense heart of galactic clusters, or anywhere in between.

“The sheer size of the SAMI Survey lets us identify similarities as well as

differences, so we can move closer to understanding the forces that affect the fortunes of galaxies over their very long lives,” Professor Croom said.

Last week, all the data collected was released to the public, in the hope that amateur and professional astronomers will continue to sift through it and see new discoveries made.

Overall, 3068 galaxies were studied, 13 at a time using a custom-built instrument called the Sydney-AAO Multi-Object Integral-Field Spectrograph (SAMI), connected to the telescope at Siding Spring Observatory and operated by the Australian National University (ANU).

Co-author Associate Professor Julia Bryant from ASTRO 3D and the University of Sydney said: “The next steps in this research will make use of a new Australian instrument – which we’ve called Hector – that will start operation in 2021, increasing the detail and number of galaxies that can be observed.”

When fully installed at Siding Springs, Hector will survey 15,000 galaxies.

The full data set is available online through Australian Astronomical Optics (AAO) Data Central.

Have your say on west Dubbo’s Joira oval play space masterplan

Funding available to promote awareness of Aboriginal languages

DUBBO Regional Council (DRC) is inviting the community to provide feedback on the draft masterplan for a play space in Delroy Parklands, West Dubbo.

The masterplan was developed following a commitment identified within the recently adopted Mayoral Playground Shade Improvement Program.

Installation of a new play space within Delroy Parklands/Grangewood Estate area was identified, to cater for population growth in this area and help balance the current inequity between West and East Dubbo recreational opportunities.

The proposed play space will create a key connection to Delroy Parklands and the existing pedestrian accessible path system.

View the masterplan at www.dubbo.nsw.gov.au/ public-exhibition/joira-oval-playground-draft-plan

THE Aboriginal Languages Community Investments Program is offering $800,000 across three categories.

“Reawaken” supports projects encouraging the development of new or emerging language activities with up to $20,000.

By LYDIA PEDRANA THE flags at Dubbo Regional Council flew at half-mast on Monday to honour Cobar Mayor Lilliane Brady OAM who passed away peacefully at age 90 last weekend.

Cr Brady the State’s longest-serving female Mayor totalling 20 years in the role and sat on local Council for 40 years.

Mayor of the Dubbo Region Ben Shields paid tribute to his friend and mentor, describing her as “legendary figure” and “an icon of Western New South Wales”.

“Her fierce determination to progress her community will be talked about for generations to come,” he said.

“Lilliane’s involvement with the Dubbo region goes back a long time.

“She was a friend to Dubbo and liked to remind the successive Mayors about how important it was in our role to work in partnership with the rest of the region.”

Mr Shields said Cr Brady had great passion, a no-nonsense way of dealing with bureaucrats and politicians, unrivalled determination and sheer will to get things done.

“Personally, it has been a

great privilege to have known and become friends with Lilliane,” he said.

“She was a true advocate for Western New South Wales and a legendary figure whose legacy will endure for years to come.

“My sincere condolences to her family and the community of the Cobar Shire.”

Cr Brady was due to retire this September.

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

plenty of economic benefits for the city and the broader region.

Some sort of incident

Blacked out

THERE’S not much straight talking done these days whenever the bureaucracy gets involved.

Here’s a Facebook post from Dubbo College at around 2.20pm on February 9: “Dubbo College South Campus students and staff are to be commended for their response to the safety procedure initiated today.

The safety procedure was initiated to ensure students’ safety during an emerging issue. The prompt response enabled staff to effectively manage the issue and students were safe at all times with lessons and normal routines continuing promptly. Dubbo College South Campus and other public schools practise a number of safety procedures regularly and today’s safety procedure demonstrated the value of these rehearsals.�

My time is valuable, and I really didn’t have any to spare to dance around with the education department’s media team to try and get the simplest of straight answers, when past history shows me that just wouldn’t be happening.

Years ago, at least the state and federal governments felt half obligated to let you know about things as and how they happened.

Fire activity boost RURAL Fire Service (RFS) members from across the state are participating in Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) training this weekend at the RFS Training Academy, Dubbo.

This new complex is not only training up this generation of volunteer firefighters and paid RFS staff, but also bringing working visitors to Dubbo and creating

POWER blackouts in Dubbo’s CDB are becoming so common that many locals are wondering if they’re living in a nation with expensive infrastructure that performs at third-world standards.

This last one a few days back, the third in the past few weeks, once again took out traffic lights and businesses, extending to much of West Dubbo.

For the money we pay the power companies, and for the cash that flows into Essential Energy, this essentially just isn’t good enough.

POLICE are investigating a break, enter and steal at a property on the Mitchell Highway at Wellington between February 6 to 7 where forced entry to a cottage saw a number of items stolen, including: z A Honda CRF 450 motorcycle, red and white in colour with Renthal kit z A Honda CRF 250L motorcycle, red and white in colour, with a broken left peg and cracked case. VIN number MLHMD38U1D5001548 VIN z A large number of assorted tools z A Tohatsu 9.5HP outboard motor and an unknown brand outboard motor z A 6 x 4 grey box trailer; NSW registration number J27722 z A quantity of rough opal and two ornamental swords.

If anyone has any information about this incident, or you know where this property is, please contact Wellington Police Station on 02 6840 2099, or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or email via crimestoppers.com.au.

Alleged Dubbo thefts – three charged POLICE have charged a man and two teenagers as part of ongoing investigations into the alleged theft of multiple vehicles after earlier this month commencing an investigation into reports of multiple aggravated break and enters, and motor vehicle thefts in Dubbo between January 25 and February 2.

A 14-year-old boy was arrested at Dubbo Police Station about 11.30am on February 4 and charged with 22 offences including: z Never licensed person drive on road z Aggravated break and enter and commit serious indictable offence – people there z Six counts of take and drive conveyance without consent of owner z Two counts of destroy or damage property – less than $5000 z Two counts of aggravated break and enter dwelling in company intend steal – less than $60,000 z Be carried in conveyance taken without consent of owner z Three counts of dishonestly obtain financial advantage by deception z Five counts of enter building/ land with intent commit indictable offence z Police pursuit The boy appeared at a children’s court last Friday, and he was formally refused bail to reappear before the same court on February 15.

On February 5 police arrested a

conveyance without consent of owner The teen was refused bail and appeared at a children’s court.

Investigations continue.

Operation Trance IF you thought there were extra highway patrol cars in town last weekend, you’re correct.

The first phase of Operation Trance commenced on February 4 and finished on February 7, targeting unsafe driving behaviour in and around Dubbo, Orange and Moree.

Police say 1365 random breath tests were conducted with four people charged with mid-range drink driving.

Police conducted 43 random drug tests, with 10 people returning a positive indication for the presence of a prohibited drug.

Twelve charges were laid in total, and an additional 172 Traffic Infringement Notices issued for a range of offences.

North West Region Traffic Coordinator, Sergeant Kelly Wixx, said saturation strategies such put police at the front of mind for motorists. “While many drivers comply with the road rules, police continue to detect motorists demonstrating unsafe driver behaviour and place other road users at risk,� Sgt Wixx said. “Driving on regional roads requires concentration and vigilance; adding alcohol, drugs, distractions and dangerous driving behaviours increases a driver’s chances of being involved in serious collisions.

New data shows solar and wind had a record year in 2020

Banjo of the Bush

By JOHN RYAN MARK Wednesday, February 17 in your diaries.

Ian ‘Macca’ McNamara from Australia All Over will be in Yeoval to unveil a three-metre-high bronze sculpture of Major Andrew Barton ‘Banjo’ Paterson to mark the 157th anniversary of his birth.

The Light Horse Re-enactment group will be in attendance as will a contingent of the regular Australian Army, the Salvation Army and the British Deputy High Commissioner.

Yeoval was the childhood home of young “Barty” Paterson who grew to become the town’s most famous son. He adopted the pen name ‘Banjo’ to avoid being seen as one of the Bohemian Poets of the day.

First and foremost, ‘Banjo’ was a well-known poet and storyteller known the world over – he wrote many stories as a war correspondent, played many sports, and edited several Sydney newspapers.

During WWI he rose to the rank of major and oversaw the Allied Remount Unit in Egypt. He spent the later years of his life as a well-respected turf writer for eastern state newspapers and was a familiar figure at many race meetings, especially the Melbourne Cup. Yeoval’s ‘Our Banjo Paterson –

more than a Poet Museum’ shows the many and varied activities and adventures undertaken during the lifetime of A B Paterson including original letters and unpublished works, together with a large collection of associated material and memorabilia of the day.

This Bronze Sculpture was commissioned by the museum and created by Melbourne sculptor Paul Smits. It depicts the poet in his WWI uniform.

The sculpture will stand at the front of the Museum and show the village’s pride in its most famous son.

Everyone is invited to attend, and a free morning tea will be served to all those attending.

Langley’s Coaches of Dubbo have a Coach available for a small fee bookings on 68828977.

NEW data has revealed gas generation in Australia’s largest electricity grid fell by 19 percent in 2020 while solar and wind had a record year despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

“This latest data clearly shows that gas is on the way out and has no role to play in our economic recovery. It is foolish to waste taxpayers’ money building new gas power stations. It is completely unnecessary,” said Climate Council researcher Tim Baxter.

Renewables provided 26 percent of power to the National Electricity Market in 2020, while gas provided just eight percent.

The data reveals that gas power stations in New South Wales had a whopping 46 percent drop in generation to just 1.6 percent.

“Gas is a fossil fuel driving climate change and Australians are being hit hard with catastrophic bushfires and the third mass bleaching of the Great Barrier Reef in five years. The good news is we do not need any new gas infrastructure,” he said.

IT’S A RECORD! Freddy the Great Dane, who held the record for tallest dog living (male), has sadly passed away.

He was 8 and a half years old. The gentle giant was a much adored and pampered pet who became an international superstar when his record was announced in 2016. When measured by a vet and Guinness World Records, Freddy was a towering 103.5cm from foot to withers.

Standing on his hind legs – not a measurement that GWR officially counts – his height was an imposing 226cm. Freddy’s owner Claire Stoneman from Essex, UK, was devastated at her beloved pet’s passing: “He was not just the tallest dog but the dog with the most love and the biggest heart. A total soppy bugger who was hand fed.”

Court in between Just as the state’s justice system rolls inexorably along, so too is the construction of a new courtroom in what was open space between the Dubbo police station and the original courthouse building.

COUNTRY WOMEN’S ASSOCIATION

Country ladies

You are invited to attend the RAISE the WINGS Dubbo Dinner to raise funds for Little Wings, a not-for-profit charity that provides free ongoing flight & ground transport to seriously ill children & families in need from regional NSW.

By JOHN RYAN COVID-19 restrictions prevented those attending the Country Women’s Association (CWA) Macquarie Group council meeting from singing the national anthem, but those in attendance were able to get plenty of other things done.

The first guest speaker at the meeting was Camilla Herbig who’s the ambassador for Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) based in Dubbo.

She spoke on services that are available for people with mental issues as well as loss and grief.

Members heard about the massive scope of the job, as RAMHPs covers a huge area from Dubbo to the Queensland border and the meeting heard on occasions there are phone and video sessions available.

One of Camilla Herbig’s main tasks is to let people know about the services that are accessible.

Simon Target was the second guest speaker – he’s a British/Australian film director and is currently working on a documentary on CWA of NSW and he’s in the process of travelling extensively around the state filming and interacting with CWA members.

Daughter Caroline Israel told Dubbo Photo News that her mum never misses picking up a copy of the paper, so we were only too happy to give mum Marjorie something to read that’s very close to home.

“We are super proud of them and are hosting a family celebration later in the month,” Mrs Israel said.

As the attached wedding invitation shows, the happy couple were married at 11am, Saturday, February 11, 1961 at St Michael’s Church, Dunedoo with the reception held at the RSL Club Rooms.

“Mum was born and raised in Dunedoo and dad in Gulgong.

They now live in Dubbo and are the proud parents of a son and daughter, five grandchildren and three great grandchildren.

“The secret to a long and happy marriage? Well, they have always been able to laugh together, always supported each other and the love is abundant.”

Maryvale road to be upgraded

By NATALIE LEWIS A NOTORIOUS part of the Mitchell Highway linked to a number of fatal road accidents is finally getting an upgrade.

Transport for NSW Director West Alistair Lunn told Dubbo Photo News that the NSW Government has committed $4.87 million for safety upgrades along a 2.3 kilometre section of the road at Maryvale as part of the Safer Roads Program.

“Transport for NSW is currently developing the project which will include installation of flexible safety barriers, road widening and intersection upgrades,” he said.

“The community will be notified in advance of this work starting, once planning and de-

sign work has been completed.”

The Safer Roads Program is a road safety infrastructure treatment program that delivers sustainable and long-term reductions in road trauma through upgrades of the existing road network.

The program is a partnership between key Transport for NSW divisions and local councils to install a range of safety treatments on existing roads across NSW. Across five years to 2022/23, $822 million will be invested in the Safer Roads Program. In 2020/21 the program will carry out 203 road safety infrastructure projects across NSW to the value of $258 million.

ments through two key initiatives: Saving Lives on Country Roads which addresses high risk curves and fatigue as two of the main contributors to road fatalities and serious injuries on country roads and Liveable and Safe Urban Communities which aims to improve the safety of people in urban areas through infrastructure safety upgrades for pedestrians and bicycle riders, and by specifically addressing serious injury crashes in urban areas.

The Mitchell Highway between Geurie and Wongarbon, Dubbo to Narromine and Wellington to Orange are also earmarked for the improvements along with the Burrendong Way between Wellington and Kerrs Creek.

Creating heart smart communities

BY NATALIE LEWIS

A CELEBRITY entertainer has joined George Chapman’s mission to install automated external defibrillators (AEDs) across the region, and the Dubbo first-aider couldn’t be happier.

Best known as the original Yellow Wiggle, Greg Page AM visited the area on Monday (February 8) to announce a donation of five AEDs to the Wellington CBD which will take the town’s total to 20.

Mr Page learnt of the grave importance of the devices after suffering a heart attack during a bushfire relief concert in January 2020.

“I left home believing I was coming home,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “I didn’t even know it was happening.”

While he is married to a carAfter a defibrillator saves your life, every diac nurse, Mr Page’s active lifeday is a bonus according to Greg Page. He style and healthy diet weren’t is pictured with local first aider George Chapman on his left. PHOTO: DPN/KEN SMITH enough to save him from the sud-

den cardiac arrest that could easily have killed him.

“There was something wrong that I couldn’t see,” he said.

“I could have died – that’s why I’m so passionate. It’s a unique experience being in a life-threatening situation. This is my life after death.”

His experience led to the establishment of the Heart of the Nation initiative, which is operating across Australia. Like a hot potato, Mr Page’s aim is to pass on the knowledge of the benefits of AEDS to the community.

“I want more communities to become heart safe, to have more AEDs, creating greater awareness of their location and how to use them. Having a community prepared with the skills and tools is just so important,” he said.

Local AED advocate George Chapman is no stranger to the concept and has initiated the installation of up to 140 devices across the Local Government

Area in the past two years for a total of 160.

The initiative started with donations from the likes of Rotary and the RSL and now businesses are buying them. Mr Page heard about the effort and contacted him out of the blue (or yellow.)

“We have saved two lives, and as time goes on, there will be more,” he said.

The AEDs are guaranteed for eight years, with a potentially longer life span.

Mr Page said it’s now about trying to create awareness of the chain of survival, about doing CPR and using the AED. “George is getting these life-saving devices out into the community but people need to know how to respond,” Mr Page pointed out. “It’s an incredible opportunity.

Mr Page believes that ‘any amount of effort is better than nothing in that situation.’

“The person that saved me was

a nurse but anyone can do it. Any attempt to save your life is better than no attempt.”

He also said that finding people like Mr Chapman in every town will make a difference.

“George is doing an amazing job This guy is a stand-out champion – being the catalyst for so many AEDs is phenomenal. We need to hold him up as a beacon.

We need more Georges.”

Mr Chapman described the new devices as the icing on the cake for Wellington’s AED count.

“They should fill the gaps,” he said.

In the future, Mr Page is also hoping to change the AED signage colour from green and white to blue, red and his signature yellow.

Greg Page’s donation will allow AEDs to be installed at:  Shell Wellington  Jespresso  Stubberfield Toyota  St Patrick’s Catholic Church  Federal Hotel

SOLAR FARM

Company welcomes community

By NATALIE LEWIS A WELCOME to Country and smoking ceremony has been held on-site at the Suntop Solar Farm near Wellington as part of the property’s development. Energy company Canadian Solar is undertaking construction of the 189MW development utilising Bouygues Australia along with local service providers for civil and earthmoving works, vegetation management, site security, catering and accommodation.

Project manager Bjorn Schultz said they have appointed Spinifex Recruiting to assist with labour hire. “The prime EPC contractor Bouygues has engaged Spinifex, who have an office in Dubbo, to recruit contractors for the project with the objective to maximise local sourcing of labour including con-

tractors of Aboriginal heritage,� he explained. “Electricians working on the site must be certified Australian electricians and Bouygues will source these locally unless their requirements exceed the local supply.�

The company hosted an information meeting late last year to brief the community about the project. They also have a website with information about future opportunities at the site.

Once the solar farm is completed, there will also be some operations and maintenance positions available.

The project began in late 2020, with early generation targeted for spring 2021. Founded in Canada in 2001, Canadian Solar is one of the world’s largest solar power companies. The Suntop property is just one of many renewable energy projects being built in the area.

There will also be a special feature for local farmers to be advised closer to the date.

Mr Hanney said the event is held every Easter Saturday in the historic township. “It's Easter Saturday, so that only means it’s the Man from Ironbark Festival. “Mark this day in your calendar, as this year’s event promises to be the best ever!�

The Man from Ironbark Festival will be held at the Stuart Town Recreational Ground and Moxon Park on Easter Saturday, April 3 from 9am to 4pm with

ticket entry to comply with COVID-19 restrictions. “The festival will be held wholly within the Stuart Town Recreational Ground with only one main entry and exit. To help maintain controls due to COVID-19, the only main entry and main exit will be at the entry of the reserve in Bell St. We will have a secondary exit at Moxon Park that will allow visitors to head over to the Ironbark Hotel,� Mr Hanney said.

STAA is working closely with and being supported

by Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) to stage the event which hasn’t been held since 2019.

A grand old home restored

By NATALIE LEWIS ONE of Wellington’s grandest old homes is being lovingly restored and owners Carl and Jennie Palmer don’t mind how long it takes them.

“You can build a house in a year, but you can’t restore a home in the same time frame, it certainly doesn’t happen in a day!” Carl said.

Carl is the local Anglican Minister, and his wife works casually in a local bank. They have always loved the house at Nanima.

When the timing was right, they took the plunge to own the historic homestead.

“We lived in Wellington in the ‘90s. I was principal of the Christian School and Jennie was the Bursar,” Carl explained.

“Jennie had an eye for this house. One day we came out for a visit and saw the For Sale

sign. That was in 2013.”

At the time, the couple was living near Canberra. They returned to Wellington in 2016 after they purchased the house in 2015. The rest is history.

“It took us nearly a year to move,” Carl explained. “There was a lot happening in our lives, and we spent time getting things ready.”

With eight bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dressing room and a ballroom with an 11m clerestory, Nanima House is certainly a sight to behold.

There’s also dining and drawing rooms along with the kitchen, laundry, storeroom, butler’s pantry and maid’s quarters.

Its features include wooden floors, a tessellated tile entry way, stained glass windows, marble fireplaces, chandeliers and roses on the ceilings. Every room has service bells, and the home has wood fired heating.

The Palmers have also in-

stalled a pool which complements the beautiful old home.

It’s been a long haul for the local couple who describe their journey as ongoing.

“We liked the home but could see it was a lot of work,” Carl said.

“We’d already done our homework and started the process of repairing ceilings and bathrooms. We restored the veranda, did foundational work, and replaced old wiring and plumbing.”

Everything is done with TLC and keeping the Federation features in mind.

“It’s hard work and hard to find people to assist with the restoration; it’s very specialised,” Jennie explained.

Last year, their restoration work became the focus of the ABC program, Restoration Australia, after the network showed interest in the project.

“We weren’t keen to be on

television, but we wanted the restoration to be recorded. We thought the house deserved it.

It was all about the restoration of the house.”

The finished program is indeed a beautiful keepsake of the home’s transformation, which continues every day.

“We are still renovating,” Carl said.

“This home has a lot of history, and our job is preserving that. When it was built, it was described as the grandest house in Wellington. Work began in September 1900 and in 1901, the house was finished, at a cost of 2600 pounds.

“It was in one family for four generations, and Banjo Paterson was a nephew of Charles Hampden Barton, the original owner. If the walls could talk – many great stories would be told!

“It’s a grand house, but it’s firstly a home.”

For the past five years, Carl and Jennie Palmer have been lovingly restoring Wellington’s historic Nanina homestead. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/COLIN ROUSE

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Bunnings should stay at current location The Editor, Concerning the development of the former RAAF Base, Bunnings should stay where they are as it’s currently on an industrial/retail estate, not a zoned residential area on the corner of Goode and Palmer streets facing west where they wish to relocate to.

There are several issues which should be looked at carefully: (1) Traffic – the whole of Cobra/ Palmer/Goode streets will become one big traffic jam as people try to get in and out of the place; (2) Operating hours – 6am10pm Monday to Friday and 7am7pm Saturday and Sunday. This is not acceptable when it borders a large residential area. Palmer Street has always been a quiet area.

Looks to me like the developers will win unless council reins them in to make it more acceptable to the residents that live there.

For interested parties, the full Bunnings development proposal can be viewed by accessing D.A. Tracker from the homepage of Dubbo Regional Council’s website, then: (1) Enter the application year (2021) and application number (39) or alternatively enter the development address into the search engine of D.A. Tracker; (2) Select the correct application from the results returned, and; (3) Select the Documents tab to view the various plans and supporting documents submitted in support of the application.

Written submissions with respect to the proposed development can be made to council by March 5, 2021.

Roadworks need to get a wriggle on The Editor, How long is it going to take for Transport for NSW to finish changing the roundabouts to traffic lights at Cobra/Fitzroy Streets and over in West Dubbo at the highway intersection?

They are both a nightmare to

drive through and are very dangerous for pedestrians.

Dugald Saunders must see that people are fed up with how slow these projects are being built. And we are even more fed up with the lame excuses we are being given.

It’s time for Dugald to step up and make them get a wriggle on.

Simone Naden, Dubbo

Tradies In Sight: good work continues The Editor, Our dream of owning a food trailer is slowly but surely becoming a reality.

Since the reinforcement of the COVID restrictions we have had to think outside the box and our solution came in the shape of a food trailer which will not only meet the COVID requirements but also still be able to serve our purpose of creating a conversation around food.

This concept will enable us to go out to various work sites, businesses and also the surrounding towns and offer support to those who may need a helping hand.

We have served over 4000 meals in almost three years and this has been through a variety of methods such as Umu (underground cooking) and catered events.

We have had hundreds of conversations during this time that have impacted families in a positive way as people have taken away new insight into mental health and wellbeing including where and how to get the right kind of help. We have also seen a positive increase in good conversations reducing the stigma of mental ill health and the struggles people – and men especially – have faced.

We want to reach more country blokes and this concept will continue to enable us to do that.

We have been so blessed to have a few local businesses that have come alongside us in this journey to help provide us with the funds towards this great concept.

These businesses in particular have recognised that there’s a need in our community for men’s

mental health support and could see the value in what we are trying to achieve.

I would like to offer our sincere thanks to Darren Semmler from G.J. Gardner Homes for your generous donation towards our food trailer and for believing in our work. Bless you guys.

If you or your business could also see the value and would like to get on the journey with us, please contact us as we would appreciate all of your support.

Comment on Deputy Premier’s complaints The Editor, Recently the deputy premier (John Barilaro) has been complaining about regional hospitals in NSW. I hope he was not referring to the new Dubbo hospital.

More recently he cannot accept the umpire’s decision from the Independent Planning Commission (IPA) about the mining of coal from two sites near Avon and Cordeaux dams. The IPC rejected the application for the Dendrobium mine expansion saying the project risked irreversible damage to Sydney’s drinking water. The Deputy Premier is talking about removing the IPC from its role of protecting water supplies.

WaterNSW strongly opposed the project because of expected damage to water quality and quantity, and to the 25 key wetlands that would be affected by the diversion of water caused by subsidence and cracking.

There are no cases of major cities in the world allowing mining in such situations.

Chris Owens, Dubbo

Wasting our money is wrong The Editor, Dugald Saunders is sending birthday cards to ‘strangers’. How many? Why? Last week my husband received a birthday card from Dugald Saunders. (My husband is not turning 100.)

Dugald Saunders has exclusive access, as an MP, to the Electoral Roll which contains names, addresses and dates of birth of all the voters in the Dubbo Electorate. To use the birth dates for any

purpose is an abuse of power and an invasion of privacy.

I could just throw the card in the bin and forget about it but I am so outraged that I want the people of the Dubbo electorate to know what Dugald Saunders is using taxpayers’ money for. It’s not just an ordinary cheap card. The card was especially printed, my husband’s name was printed inside with a message and ending with “Warmest regards Dugald and Karen Saunders”.

Dugald Saunders, you (shouldn’t) draw your wife into your foolishness. Plus there is the cost of the stickers with the address, the envelope and the postage, all paid for using parliamentary entitlements (as stated on the back of the card).

Money that Dugald Saunders receives for parliamentary entitlements is taxpayers’ money, your money. This is a blatant misuse of taxpayer money.

FEEL GOOD FEBRUARY

The profound importance of just being there Jen Cowley ❚ OPINION THROUGHOUT my life so far, I’ve been fortunate to have witnessed and been on the receiving end of many an act of kindness, random and otherwise.

Choosing one example is an almost impossible task, but I well remember a moment in time that would later make me realise how important it is to be present for someone who is hurting, and how kindness is almost always returned somehow, somewhere, sometime.

My age wasn’t yet in double digits when a neighbour, a close friend of my father’s, took his own life, leaving behind a shattered wife and four young children.

Most of what I remember comes, I think, from others’ accounts of that day, but one very strong memory stands out: my big, tall Dad wrapping that traumatised mother up in his arms and just holding her, saying nothing, while her grief came in great wracking waves.

I recall watching with fascination, not really knowing what was happening but conscious that it was something profound.

That woman, with whom I became and remained very close until her own death in recent years, would lat-

er tell me how much my father’s simple instinctive gesture meant to her that day.

It gave her strength and courage and let her know that help and support would be there for her. He didn’t need to say anything, he just needed to be there. It’s an important lesson.

When my own father was diagnosed with late-stage cancer just a couple of years later, one of my brothers and I went to stay with that family for months on end while our parents were in Sydney for lengthy – and ultimately futile – treatment for my father.

When he died, and when a series of tragedies befell our family, that love and support was returned tenfold, not only by that family, but by many

others who were part of the kind of safety net that is woven by and in small communities.

On reflection, this tangible manifestation of good karma has helped shape my own attitude towards community, and the importance of a sense of place that comes from belonging to something bigger than oneself.

I often remind myself of how lucky I am to have regional community roots, and I am acutely conscious of the privileges I have had and continue to have in my life. The only time I will ever apologise for them is if I ever fail to use them in support of others who don’t enjoy them. z Jen Cowley is a writer, former editor, and community advocate.

Thumbs down to the ‘customer’ at a Dubbo store who thought it would be funny to set a rat trap in store which ended up going off on a staff member’s finger resulting in excruciating pain. Had this been a small child it could have been more serious.

Thumbs Down to a local radio announcer who made a cruel comment on air about the way you should treat some reptiles.

Thumbs Down to junk mail not getting delivered to some houses in a street, but is getting delivered to other people in the same street who obviously don’t want it because the junk mail gets left out on the street. It’s a waste of paper and we keep getting missed.

DUBBO South Public School Stage 2 and 3 students are organised to grow.

The dedicated primary teachers are supporting and challenging the students to learn the WICOR (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organisation and Reading) skills they will need to be successful in their academic studies.

With a spotlight on ‘organisation’ in 2021, the school has designed a folder system to help students because re-

sponsible learners who are able to manage their own learning tools, collect evidence of their growth, as well as develop positive goal setting and problem-solving habits in mathematics.

Staff say that the students have assembled their own folders and are already feeling the benefits of being organised learners.

MEET THE BOSS Lynn Wallace Company: Fleurish & Pampa Position: Florist Owner/ manager I got involved in business... as I am passionate about design, colour, texture, form and sharing and expressing this with my customers.

Our business is known for... its fun staff, fresh and dried beautiful blooms, beauty services, hairdresser, barber, massage therapist, art and quirky home objects.

Our best-selling product is... all the above. I am also privileged to work with Abbey Funerals Dubbo and Walsh Funerals Nyngan doing their floral casket sprays which is a big honour and heartfelt part of my business.

My role in this business is... to keep the staff amused while being an allrounder with a license to create whatever I feel like.

According to my staff working for me is... “entertainment!”

I spend my down time... gathering, collecting, drinking wine with good pizza, gardening and art (often all at once).

In my opinion the biggest issue facing small business is... the big, big businesses.

What three famous people would you invite for dinner?

Austin Powers, Brett Whitley and Michael Hutchins I’m most proud of... my family, building relationships and appearing to be organised while being in absolute chaos when under the pump. I am so proud and humbled to be part of this

little community (Narromine) who have such big hearts. They share all their gardens, love, humour, produce and stories with me in my little business daily.

When you were a child, what did you want to do when you grew up? I wanted to be a nun when I grew up as we lived close to the church and I was always there. I also wanted to decorate everything and make everything prettier in my family’s home.

The best piece of career advice I can offer is... when dealing

with not so pleasant personalities, help them even more as you don’t always know what they might be experiencing in their life. This has always worked for me in work and personal situations.

And if I wasn’t in my current role, I’d be... wandering around India, Africa gathering interesting objects and exploring the vibrancy of its culture, people and landscapes.

Back to racing

By SOPHIA ROUSE THE races were back at the Dubbo Turf Club on Monday, February 1. Dubbo Photo News went out to get some photos and some tips. After receiving two tips, one on Unrestricted and the other on Little White Lies, we managed to get a 50 per cent success rate but unfortunately it wasn’t enough to buy us a colourful shirt for the upcoming event ‘Wear your loudest summer shirt’ on Valentine’s Day.

SUDOKU EXTRA

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.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE z There is a company called Little Miss Matched that sells packs of mismatched socks. z Syphilis was a major problem in the late 19th and early 20th century. Doctors found that the bacteria that caused it was sensitive to heat, so they thought giving a patient a fever could help get rid of it. How did they induce said fever? With malaria injections!

While effective in curing syphilis, some patients unfortunately died from – you guessed it – malaria. z Instant noodles topped a Japanese poll of the country’s greatest inventions of the 20th century. z The word “freelancers” originally referred to self-employed, sword-wielding mercenaries: literally, “free lancers”. z In ancient Rome, having a

crooked nose was considered a sign of leadership. z Andrew Lawrence ran two hours, 47 minutes and 41 seconds in a banana costume during a London marathon in order to secure the title of the fastest time to run a marathon while wearing a fruit costume. z Before mercury, brandy was used to fill thermometers. z Author William Faulkner refused a dinner invitation from President John F. Kennedy’s White House. “Why, that’s a hundred miles away,” he said. “That’s a long way to go just to eat.” z Founded in 597 AD, The King’s School in Canterbury, England is the world’s oldest institution of learning. z It’s illegal in the US state of Vermont to prohibit anyone from putting up a clothesline.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z Save and thoroughly clean egg cartons (preferably the ones made of foam) for kids’ paint palettes.

The wells keep colours contained, and the flat space on the lid side is great for resting brushes. They are easy to rinse off and just as easy to recycle if you are done with them. z When topping a pie with meringue, make sure that it touches all the edges of the pie crust.

Otherwise it will shrink. z Wrinkled ribbons? You can use your curling iron or flat iron to give the satin a quick freshening up. z “You can use a little bit of cooking oil to remove the last bits of sticker adhesive from a glass picture frame. Remove as much of the paper sticker as possible, then dab the spot with oil on a paper towel.

Rub off. When all the adhesive is removed, use glass cleaner.” – R.H.

z Got stale bread? If it’s not too stale, you can try to bring it back in the oven. Set on a low heat alongside – but not in – a pan with water. If it’s too far gone, you can always cut it up into cubes and make croutons instead, or toast and grind into breadcrumbs. No waste! z Geometric patterns painted on walls are hot right now, and they can add interest to a room for a small price tag. One place where you don’t want to skimp, though, is on your low-tack masking tape.

Buy a good-quality painter’s tape that will give a really clean line.

Take the time to press it down so that no paint bleeds underneath.

Then, after painting, wait until the paint is dry to the touch before removing. z Send your tips to now-heresa-tip@dubbophotonews.com.au

LEAGUE TAG

Wellington League Tagged!

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL MICK Peachey is looking forward to a return to the field for the Wellington Cowgirls this season.

The multi-premiership winning coach took a group of young players through the Group XI competition two years ago.

“We certainly missed League Tag last year but I think it’s made a lot of the girls more hungry to get back in action. They weren’t totally inactive with a few social get-togethers but it’s not the same as getting onto the field in the Cowgirls colours,” Mick said.

The Cowgirls were being put through their paces when Mel called in to Kennard Park. He was impressed with the workout and says it took him back to the days when he was behind the cameras covering Mick and his brilliant Cowboys teams of the early 90s.

The Wellington girls will once again benefit from the sponsorship from Ian Jones and Taree Auto Group.

“We think this is fairly unique to have a team from the Mid North Coast looking after a club in the central west, hundreds of kilometers away.

We’re very grateful for the confidence they have shown in us and are going to do our best to make them proud,” Mick promised.

The Wellington league tag girls train on Kennard Park at 6.30 each Thursday night.

Coach Peachey puts his players through their drills!

The Ultimate sport

By TIM HOSKING Photos by MEL POCKNALL THE Autumn 2021 Mixed League for Dubbo Ultimate commenced recently, with 100 players in eight teams taking to South Dubbo Oval to compete for the shield.

This is the longest-running and largest Ultimate Frisbee league in regional NSW. We’ve seen some returning players and a bunch of new starters throughout the compe-

tition as people take up our fast and fun non-contact team sport where there are no refs, so no team reffing duties!

We’ve just launched our second season of Dubbo Ultimate Youth, hosting a dozen youngsters of ages 10-15 though fun activities to boost their skills, fitness and experience as Ultimate players.

We’re hoping this will become a fixture for future seasons.

On the horizon is the return of representative Ultimate, and our ‘Dubbo Meerkats’ mixed rep

side are set to re-form and take on Orange and Blue Mountains Clubs in mid-March, working on a lead-up to the Bathurst Stampede tournament – the largest tournament in regional NSW – where over 20 rep teams will be attending from across NSW and the ACT. If people are keen to play they can reach out to our Club at dubboultimate@gmail.com or hit up our facebook page at:  www.facebook.com/ Dubboultimate

Junior athletes striving for state

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL DESPITE the wet start on Saturday, athletes who had travelled from as far west as Broken Hill, Bourke, Cobar and Brewarrina and east to the Blue Mountains completed a full program of events.

The aim in the still COVID restricted State Littles Qualifiers was to record times to compete at the next level.

According to local organisers, it was just good to be back on track!

“We had plenty of personal bests and several qualifications both on the track and in the field events,” coach Mark Penman wrote on the club’s Facebook page.

Socially Sundy

By PISTOL PETE DUBBO City hosted 31 bowlers on Sunday, all keen to roll up and exchange the gossip of the week.

Gary Huggins combined with Mike Twohill to scrape a win over Paul Martin and Gary Scott 20 shots to 18.

Everyone agreed it was the ‘double score’ on end 8 that did the damage.

Meanwhile on Rink 7, Steve Kelly and Gaye Cottee, ably led

by Gordon Lummis struggledthrough their game winning only 5 ends for 14 points while Ron McAuley, the ‘Stick’ DaveDavis and Eric Satchell cruised to 20 shots and the comfortable feeling that comes with winning.

Leo Balstad led Ross Pharo and Pete Ruzans along with Bruce ‘the DOC’ Livingston and Chris Cristante through what was described by all as “a good game”. Leo was

not tempted by anyof the bribes offered! The Pistol / Ross combo eased to a 15-7 to a win. To be fair, the score was not a reflection of the closeness of the game.

Mick Linnane teamed up with Cheryl Storch and Annette McMillan for a dominant 10 shot win over Sue McAuley, Pat Sherwin and Maurie Cole. Annette McMillan ensured her team kept discipline and played very consistently.

Kevin Scott and John Cole met Phil Knight and Karen Greenhalge in a Pairs with plenty of good-hearted feeling and won 22 shots to 10. Kev and Coley were very pleased with their efforts; the other pair did try. They did try!

In the final matchup, Roger Shirwin skipped Shirley Marchant and John McMillan to a comprehensive 22-6 victory against Carl New, Helen Linnane and Li-

LEAGUE TAG

Canowindra to host Western Challenge League Tag Carnival

By GEOFF MANN THE Wellington Cowgirls are keen to return to Tigers territory next month for what coach Mick Peachey described as one of the most enjoyable, well-organised and high

quality tournaments with which his team has been involved.

“We loved it last year.

There were some really skilled individuals in all teams but the West Belconnen, Grenfell and Bathurst St Pats were excep-

tional. They set a standard that our youngsters are aspiring to this year,” Mick said.

The 11th annual Western Region League Tag Challenge is set down for Sat 13th March at Tom Clyburn Oval.

The Canowindra Tigers are celebrating a belated Centenary in 2021 and the prestigious carnival provides a perfect season opener.

The Tigers’ women claimed the inaugural trophy however Group

10 clubs Bathurst St Pats (2012/16/17/18/19), Orange Hawks (2013) and Orange CYMS (2014/15) have dominated since then.

“It’s about time our Group XI girls brought it back,” Mick laughed

THE last couple of weeks the Platypus have been putting in extra work for this Sunday’s Western District AIF Championships in Forbes. 17 swimmers will represent Wellington in the Lachlan fed pool.

Ironically, some of the local swimmers are members of the Forbes Platypii Rugby Club. We could all be related – ‘extreme monotremes’!

Di Donnelly continued her good form in the lead up to the Championships by winning the 30 metre (0.07) while Tippy Dray won the 50m (- 0.11).

Bonni Sheridan and Oliver Hughes won the Junior events while Lilly Sheridan and Mason Hill combined to take the Brace Relay.

Results 2 Feb JUNIORS:  25m – Bonni Sheridan (+.18), 2nd Oliver Hughes (+.46), 3rd Lilly Sheridan (-.51)  50m – Oliver Hughes (-.38), 2nd Mason Hill (+1.64), 3rd Zacary Hill (-1.77) SENIORS:  30m – Di Donnelly (+.07), 2nd Colin Sheridan (-.13), 3rd Nick Knowles (+.42)  50m – Terry Dray ( -.11), 2nd Di Donnelly (+.51), 3rd Michael McLaughlin (+.62) Brace Relay:  Lilly Sheridan/Mason Hill (-1.33), 2 Bella/Colin Sheridan (+1.98), 3 Nick Knowles/ Sam Lemon

RUGBY LEAGUE

By GEOFF MANN WESTERN Rams Under 18s rugby league coach Kurt Hancock has endured the toughest two weeks of his life following the untimely death of one of his former players.

Mason Pollack had been a part of what Kurt called the “Rams family” since he was 14 years old.

“Mase and his twin brother Marlin were teammates throughout their careers, joining Hancock in the team that won the inaugural Andrew Johns’ Cup (Under 16s Country Championship) before stepping up to the 18s.

The twins had been training with the Penrith Panthers since late last season when tragedy struck. The young centre succumbed to depression and made the decision to end his own life.

“Mase was an amazing young bloke. He trained hard, he got on well with his teammates and brought a lot of energy to the group. We’ve all been stunned by what happened. We came together

after stacks of phone calls to say farewell on Thursday and vowed to stay and play in the famous green and white for Mason this year,” Kurt said.

In an emotional pre-match tribute Kurt and his coaching team joined with the players around Mason’s No 4 Western Rams guernsey.

“The boys decided to retire Mase’s shirt this year so Malakai Folau will wear No 18 throughout our program.”

The Rams’ performance was filled with plenty of grit as they raced to an 18-0 halftime lead against the Illawarra South Coast Dragons before adding another converted try in the second stanza on an emotional day at Sid Kallis Oval, Cowra.

The Rams Under 16s went down in a similar scoreline.

The younger Rams appeared nervous, dropping the ball on numerous occasions and conceding penalties in frustration.

The Rams head south to play Riverina this Sunday before home matches at Cale Oval, Narromine on February 21.

CONSISTENCY and determination earned Marg Ross the Dick Smith Transport Monthly Trophy at the Dubbo Ducks Sunday morning swim.

“Marg is one of our most consistent swimmers and swam a mere 0.17 seconds off her time in her heat of the 25 metres freestyle,” commented publicity officer Judy Walsh.

The Ross family was

well-represented on the podium with son Craig proving best in the 25m freestyle.

Judy also had plenty to say about Club Captain Dave Sparkes who doubles as the “Table Boss”.

“Sparkesy had us well and truly flapping our wings again on Sunday. He said it was for our own good this morning, assuring us all that it was all ‘good preparation for the Western Districts Carnival’

at Forbes this Sunday!”

In fact, Dave featured in all the results.

“He even managed to win the 100 free, however it was dark horse Gary Giddings who managed to double up in the pond with two wins for the morning,” Judy added.

Although most of the Ducks will be in Forbes on Sunday there will be a place in the pond for anyone staying at home.

Sporting the colour PINK

By KEN SMITH THERE was fun being had.

Sunday afternoon and Pickleball, in support of Pink Angels, was centre court at Dubbo Sportsworld.

“Pickelball is described as a combination of tennis, badminton and ping pong.

It’s fun, easy to learn and easy on the body, though you still get a great workout.

Any age can play and you can play singles or doubles.

Give Dubbo Sportsworld a call if you would like to give ‘Pickleball’ a go.

Well done to all involved.
