LOCKDOWN ENDS, LOCALS WARY Time will tell if we can ‘return to normal’

By JOHN RYAN

MANY local businesses have opted to remain closed until December 1 rather than have to police whether the customers entering their premises are double-vaxxed.

Meantime, many locals told Dubbo Photo News they’ll see how the number of cases pans out in coming weeks before believing

Knife threat

By JOHN RYAN A 32-YEAR-OLD man who was threatened with a knife while leaving a Windsor Parade service station at about 10am on Tuesday, October 12, has sparked a police appeal for information into the incident.

Police say the staff member threw a drink at the armed man before he fled on foot through the medical centre car park towards Wheelers Lane.

The alleged assailant is described as being Aboriginal/ Torres Strait Islander appearance, mid-late teens, about 170cm tall with black hair and wearing a black jacket with a hooded jumper, grey trackpants and a black bandana face covering.

Anyone with information or dashcam footage is urged to contact Dubbo police or Crimestoppers on 1300 333 000. ›› MORE NEWS: P19

things can ever return to normal.

That’s the uncertainty underlying Dubbo’s short-term future as businesses such as pubs, clubs, barbers and cafes open up after more than two months of lockdown, with stories such as a Walgett baby just a few months’ old being diagnosed with Covid-19 overshadowing the spectre of ‘freedom’.

Many businesspeople ap-

proached by Dubbo Photo News said they were cautiously hopeful that things would gradually improve and life would return to some sort of normality as 2021 runs into the Christmas period.

As Dubbo Photo News went to print the latest statistics from NSW Health (up to 8pm on Tuesday, October 12) showed 14 new cases of Covid-19 had been detected in the Western NSW Local

Health District in the previous 24 hours.

There were no news cases in Dubbo but two in Wellington, both infectious in the community.

Nine of the new cases are known to be linked to previously confirmed cases, nine patients were admitted to hospital across the health district, with one in intensive care.

Walgett recorded eight new

cases, five of which were infectious in the community.

Orange and Bathurst both recorded single cases and fragments of Covid were detected in the sewerage at Brewarrina, Gulgong and Oberon.

In the Dubbo Regional Council area, 126 people are currently receiving care, with 87 people having been discharged from care in the period from October 6 to 13.

PARTY OF

FIVE

By NATALIE LEWIS SOME people get pets as therapy, others view them as good companions. For Dubbo’s Annette Ferguson, it’s a combination of both these factors and more.

She shares her home with guide dog Leo, retired guide dog Delta, her daughter’s dog Kida and cats Rax and Banna.

“I’ve got five of them so it’s a busy nest. I loved having kids and I always wanted a big family,” she laughs. “I wanted 3-4 kids so I’ve got a big furry family instead.”

Local Government NSW conference changed THE format of the Local Government NSW Annual Conference has been altered this year, due to a range of external factors including the statewide lockdown and postponement of council elections.

The conference will now be conducted via an online event on November 29 followed by a special conference in person at the Hyatt Recency Sydney from February 28 to March 2, 2022 which will focus on the sector’s policy direction for the year ahead. The previous timetable from November 28 to 30 would have placed the three-day event squarely in the last week of the election campaign period.

Councillors Jane Diffey, Vicki Etheridge, Stephen Lawrence and Kevin Parker will act as the delegates for Dubbo region at the online meeting next month.

New gallery mines rich creative vein

By JEN COWLEY BY this time next week, there’ll be a new kid on Dubbo’s Macquarie Street block – a unique local enterprise that’s in the mining business, to wit: tapping into the rich creative vein that pumps through the western region and beyond.

Creative Fusion, the brainchild of renowned local artist Laura Holland, will open its doors to a creative-scene-starved public on Wednesday next week, and has come to life on the back of the success of last year’s pre-Christmas endeavour of the same name.

But like its pop-up predecessor, this new permanent space is not your average art gallery – in fact, it’s not specifically an art gallery at all, but a platform for all manner of artisans to bare their wares.

Laura believes the success of last year’s shortterm gallery in Talbragar Street is just one indication of a genuine and growing thirst for beautifully crafted creative works, particularly those works created in the regions.

“People want to shop local – that was clear to us last time. People were so impressed with how many creatives there are in our region, artisans who they might have known but didn’t necessarily know were creative.

“We have such a depth of creative talent right on our doorstep,” Laura said, explaining that selections for the space come from across a multitude of disciplines, from traditional visual artworks to photography, jewellery, books, fabric and food items and all points in between.

“This isn’t an art gallery – it’s a gallery of anything that’s beautifully created.

Yes, there will be art on the walls, but there’ll be so many other things that talented people in our region are making.”

As sole owner of the business, and a versatile artist in her own right, Laura will lead a small ongoing panel that selects the works to ensure a diverse and high-end offering.

It is a commercial exercise, no doubt, but the

born-and-bred Dubbo artist is also driven by a desire to showcase the creative talents of others.

“People need somewhere to see what’s on offer, and creatives need places to showcase their works. The art fair run recently by the Western Plains Cultural Centre was such a great example, and such a success – it was eye opening to see how many people were keen to enjoy local creative work.”

Laura is also keen to cast the net a little wider, and has sourced wares from artisans across other regions and indeed interstate.

“It’s for people who aren’t smack bang in a metropolitan area with any number of platforms available to them. It’s to showcase people who are regional and remote but who are making amazing things.

“I want people to walk in here and see really beautifully created pieces.

I want people to see the skilfully created works of those who have really honed and perfected their techniques and talents.”

Laura is quick to explain that Creative Fusion’s intention isn’t to muscle in on existing platforms for creative works, but to complement those spaces already showcasing re-

gional arts and crafts.

“What I’m aiming to do is fill the gap that exists in places for high-end creatives to exhibit and showcase their works, whatever form they take.”

Legal stalwart remembered WELL-KNOWN Dubbo solicitor Ray Nolan passed away on the weekend and has been remembered by his fellow solicitors as the bridge to a generation where law was done very differently.

Ray Nolan was formally admitted to practice by the Supreme Court of NSW on June 6, 1969. He moved to Dubbo for his first job and ended up practising law in the city for 50 years.

Orana Law Society president Andrew Boog said Ray Nolan was “larger than life” and said the local legal profession will remember him for the precise and courtly way he spoke along with his oldworld manners.

“You didn’t need to look over your shoulder when you were dealing with Ray, you didn’t have to worry about covering your back,” Mr Boog said.

“After a phone call with Ray you didn’t have to immediately put everything in writing.”

“I was always very keen on sport and quite soon after we came here I turned up to watch a couple of Dubbo CYMS’ games. The captain-coach Kenny McMullen got to know me and the next year I found myself on the CYMS committee,” Mr Nolan told Dubbo Photo News on the eve of his retirement.

“I also loved racehorses and became a member of the Turf Club.

DESPITE fears of an upward trend during the challenging times of Covid-19, there has actually been an overall downturn in the number of people to have died by suicide in Australia since 2019.

The decrease of 5.4 per cent is welcome news, but Lifeline Australia chairman John Brogden is reminding us that 3139 people still took their own lives in 2020.

That fewer Australians died by suicide even in the midst of Covid-19 is a pleasing statistic, however Lifeline points out that the aftermath of the bushfires and the impact of the ongoing pandemic has had a dramatic impact on many people’s mental health.

Calls to Lifeline rose significantly during 2020, with daily figures reaching a high of 3326 calls every day, and Mr Brogden says the downturn in suicides is a reflection of the impact of the life-saving services provided by Lifeline and other organisations and professionals, and of the fact that those who need support are reaching out for, and getting it.

The fact that people’s worst fears of increased suicide deaths during the pandemic have not been realised is reason to commend extra government attention and spending commitments for mental health support, however this must be maintained according to Lifeline.

It says the challenge is to maintain and build on these levels of spending, and to “ensure people at risk continue to be supported”.

“Over the past two years we have demonstrated to even more people that we are here to help them. Now we have to ensure that level of service is there for them into the future, so that everyone who needs support has access to it.”

Mr Brogden also called on the community to reach out to each other, especially during lockdowns and as the Christmas holiday season approaches.

“We all have the power to make a positive difference. If you know someone is having a difficult time or who might be alone, please reach out to them. By checking in with someone to make sure they’re doing okay, you can show you care.

That can make all the difference.” z Anyone who needs support can call Lifeline at any time on 13 11 14.

October 14-20, 2021 Dubbo Photo News

Ready, Set, Let us out!

DUBBO RSL Memorial Club is one of the city’s largest employers and the club also serves as the social hub in the lives of many locals.

The RSL has been significantly affected by the recent Covid-19 lockdowns, and that’s on top of the forced closure during the restrictions last year.

General manager Gus Lico spoke to Dubbo Photo News about the challenges of the past 18 months and how he thinks things will progress during the course of the year.

The club opened its doors on Monday.

••• Give us a rundown of the recent lockdowns. How much and in what ways did it affect the club across its operations?

Obviously the affect of Covid-19 and lockdown was unimaginable for the second time in less than two years and the cost to the business is enormous, running into the hundreds of thousands with multiple businesses and no income it was inevitable and unavoidable just like many other businesses that could not trade.

How did it rate compared with the lockdowns last year?

A lockdown is a lockdown and I’m not sure that one is better than the other. It takes a little time to get back to trading as we knew it then and I’m sure that this one is no different. If there is a positive then it would be that we can learn from experience from the shutdown to reopening.

How much impact did it have on staff and what was the organisation able to do to assist stuff through such a difficult time?

Staff are always a worry as any business will tell you they are the backbone of the business and so it was important that regular contact was made. These days everyone has issues and some handle things well and many just don’t in particular with the current environment and much of the mental illness that’s reported. We were fortunate we had some staff working behind the scenes a couple of days a week including HR which regularly kept tabs.

What feedback have you been getting from patrons during the lockdown – maybe people who are missing their pool comps, bingo days or the indoor pool?

Dubbo RSL Manager Gus Lico and his staff are pleased to be again welcoming customers through the club's doors.

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

Most of the feedback has been positive and can’t wait to have a meal or a drink or just get together with their friends for relaxation and few hours out. Then there are the ones who are not going to get the vaccine who point the finger at the club even though it was explained clearly that for us and many other businesses that we need to adhere to government and health regulations to be able to open. The fines are severe and we certainly do not want to attract any adverse reaction in this space.

Longer term, how much strain does it put on the financials for the club?

We are fortunate that we are in a strong financial position at present and carried on with assisting staff where possible. I can’t tell you that it’s a viable proposition and if this lockdown was to continue for further months it would be difficult to keep staff and financially would be a disaster.

How is the club going to manage coming out of the lockdown? Will it be a simple matter of all the doors opening up? Will it be staged? Are all staff still available to work as

before?

Coming out of lockdown will be testing. Obviously we won’t be coming back to how we traded prior as our experience from the previous comeback displayed that this takes time and members confidence but where there is hope there is a way. We won’t be having entertainment, raffles or bingo in the first week at least.

What are you anticipating the most about getting back to business?

I’m looking forward to staff getting back to work and supporting their families. The unfortunate aspect of reopening will be carrying out government and health orders to comply with opening so I ask everyone to be patient and supply any information that is requested from staff.

There are individual fines for patrons so it’s best that if you would like to enter you comply with the requests.

Do you ever think it will be business as normal while we’re living with Covid-19?

I’m no doctor or expert when it comes to pandemics but I would think that it will take some consid-

erable time to get any type of normality that we were used to. The worry will be further variants and what restrictions will follow.

Governments won’t make the Covid-19 vaccines mandatory but there are restrictions such as people not being able to work at various jobs unless they’re vaccinated. How is the RSL faring in that regard?

At this time we are fortunate that we have around 97 per cent of all staff vaccinated. We have well over 200 staff so it’s a good result and a boost of confidence for our workforce. Obviously there are some who do not want to be vaccinated and will not and this will be difficult to continue particularly (because) most are in a customer service environment and dealing face to face. Again, we will be guided by the government and health orders and hopefully there will be a solution for these staff members as well.

Governments have also been roundly criticised for not making the vaccine mandatory yet forcing businesses and organisations to police that on-ground compliance. How difficult

and unsavoury does that make the situation for organisations such as Dubbo RSL? We are one of the most regulated industries I know. We are used to asking the questions at reception.

We need to ensure (a person is) a member or a guest of a member, we need to ensure visitors (live more than) 5km from the premises.

(We need) proof of age and proof of residential address. We have responsible alcohol and gaming policies to adhere to and the list goes on. We need to ensure that our members feel safe and we provide this environment. It’s not ideal to be lumped with further policing of regulations particularly for the staff at the coalface who are required to obtain the information. Do we want to open? Of course... then we will certainly be doing our best.

Anything you’d like to add?

We are all looking forward to reopening and the challenges ahead.

We look forward to the visitation and support from our members in particularly and fingers crossed, no more lockdowns and get back slowly to some form of normality.

New library complex pitched to Council

National Carers’ Week to run online CARERS NSW will celebrate National Carers Week 2021 by holding a range of free online events that will focus on the health and wellbeing of family and friend carers across NSW. National Carers Week runs from October 10-16, with this year’s theme of Millions of Reasons to Care aiming to raise awareness of the significant contribution the 2.65 million carers across Australia make to society.

In celebration of National Carers Week, the Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) has funded 400 Carers Week Grants, with a range of local events for carer groups set to be held across NSW.

Former councillor Richard Mutton has proposed that Dubbo Regional Council builds a complex akin to the New Marrickville Library and Pavilion in Sydney.

PHOTOS: INNER WEST COUNCIL

By NATALIE LEWIS FORMER Dubbo City councillor Richard Mutton has praised Dubbo Regional Council for its recent $1.3m purchase of the former Carpet Court building in Darling St, and has urged the organisation to turn the site into a new library complex.

In a letter tabled at the September ordinary council meeting, Mr Mutton described the sale as “a wise and necessary purchase for

the future of Dubbo” but does not prescribe to Cr Greg Mohr’s suggestion to turn the area into a super-sized carpark.

Mr Mutton believes council should also purchase the buildings facing Talbragar St and convert the whole area into a fully contained council complex featuring the library, an outdoor area for relaxation and a memorial wall to house the names of citizens who had contributed to the city.

“While this overall plan may be too much for the council to afford short-term, it needs to be looked at and considered, at least for a new library, much better than a carpark.”

Mr Mutton believes “the library at its present site is not fully functional internally or externally”.

“Parking is a problem; part of the building is flood-prone and the internal fixtures do not represent what a modern library should be offering its citizens.”

He urged councillors to look at the New Marrickville Library and Pavilion in Sydney which converted an old hospital into a modern library, and has since won a number of architectural awards.

He said this could be done in much the same way as the old Dubbo High School became Western Plains Cultural Centre, opening its doors to art lovers in 2006.

The library complex in Marrickville includes a theatrette and coffee shop.

Oak Tree residents Marie and Bill

Downsize your home right-size your life For anyone thinking of moving house, it can initially feel as though there are multiple barriers in the way.

So when that decision comes later in life and involves selling the family home for something a little smaller, many people can feel like there are even more things holding them back: the legacy of the family house, memories and belongings to name a few. But as those who have gone through it can attest, by letting go there’s even more to gain.

Just ask Oak Tree residents Marie and Bill Dempsey. “It’s the best decision we’ve ever made and we’re enjoying it more than we thought possible,” they said. Like many in their situation, Marie and Bill were aware that the decision to sell the family home for a lifestyle choice would impact on the rest of the family. The tradition of parents wanting to pass on the family home to their children runs deep, but these days, more and more families are encouraging their parents to let go of that burden and actually enjoy their post-work lifestyles. “When we first talked it over with our children, they said go for it. They knew it was what we wanted,” Marie said.

A new beginning doesn’t have to mean leaving all your memories behind. It’s in you that those memory reside, not the house. Besides, downsizing is an opportunity to streamline your life, free yourself of clutter, and surround yourself with the things that truly matter. Without the upkeep of a traditional home, time spent with family can be enjoyed as quality time, instead of relying on them to help with gardening or maintenance on the house.

Downsizing into a village is a chance to reimagine your post-work years.

Surrounded by your peers, you can be as active and social as you please. Meet new friends, welcome old friends, take

up a new hobby and truly enjoy the time you’ve worked hard for. We take care of the maintenance so you can spend your time making new memories.

Following the advice of Bill and Marie, when it comes to the decision to downsize, there really is no reason to wait. “Don’t leave it too late to make your move. Don’t be afraid of the downsizing.

Do what we did and come in while you’re still active and can enjoy it.”

So make the move to Oak Tree and enjoy all that boutique retirement living has to offer.

Health boss’ coastal move Dogs in care: Natalee Talbot and her partner Ben love dogs, the more the merrier. The couple operates Orana Dog Training and Services which specialises in getting the best out of dogs that are experiencing difficulties. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By JOHN RYAN NATALEE Talbot’s day job couldn’t be further from the life depicted in the 1975 film Dog Day Afternoon – that movie title was designed to convey to viewers a hot, boring day – in other words, a dog day afternoon.

In fact, Natalee’s work produces just the opposite: helping to transform troubled dogs with aggressive or traumatised behaviours into well-balanced pets.

Natalee owns Orana Dog Training and Services and says her work brings her joy through knowing she’s significantly improving the lives of the dogs she treats and the owners who love them.

“I specialise in behavioural issues with dogs. I work with and rehabilitate the dogs most trainers refuse to work with,” she said.

“My process is different to most trainers as I work with the dog with the help of (partner) Ben – without the owners – to build a relationship with the dog and retrain it in a new standard that enables a stress free relationship.

“My motto is there’s no such thing as a bad dog.”

When Dubbo Photo News caught up with Natalee and Ben they had a massive dog-fix inside their SUV, those nine happy dogs making it impossible to walk past without noticing.

“We had just finished exercising the pack down at East Dog Park,” Natalee explained.

The stories she’s shared of her success in rehabilitating dogs are extensive, including how she came to meet her red dog, Reg. Reggie is a rising two-yearold cattle dog-cross-mastiff and his story began two days before Christmas last year.

“I received an emergency call from Central West Animal Rescue about a dog located in Orange that was “aggressive” and needed urgent boarding and training,” she said.

“Upon arrival I was greeted by the homeowner who informed me that Reg was dumped at their residence by the person who originally adopted him. She advised me he was very vicious and uncontrollable and they suspected

Reg had been used for pigging.”

Natalee went through the back gate to put a lead on Reg and she found him standing at the top of a flight of stairs near the back door barking at her and displaying dilated eyes.

“I was maintaining a very calm demeanour as first impressions are everything. The closer I got to Reg the further he backed away, non-stop barking and growling at me,” she said.

“He eventually backed himself in the laundry and I noticed he was shaking in fear. I crouched down but nothing seemed to work. He was scared of people, big time. I was able to safely slip the lead around his neck.

“When he felt pressure he immediately stopped barking. Reg and I walked to the car where he was almost pulling me to get the hell out of there and happily jumped in my car.”

Within 24 hours Natalee said she didn’t witness or sense any aggression from Reg, instead finding him a very calm and relaxed dog and she felt Reg was extremely grateful to be away from what-

ever horrible situation he was in.

“After three weeks of training he met another client’s dog that was having trouble with inter-male aggression and had attacked Ragnar (another of Natalee’s stable), so Ragnar was filled with fear around him,” she said.

“I introduced the client’s dog on leash individually to my dogs leaving Reg last. I was very surprised to see Reg communicate with dog on a level of securement and trust that enabled this male-hating dog to feel comfortable enough to let his guard down and engage in play. I made my decision right there and then, Reg would be my dog.

“Since then, Reg and I have helped lots of dogs together (including) respecting small dogs and their space to maintain confidence in the presence of a larger breed of dog. He is a very relaxed, obedient, intelligent and independent dog that continually excels in every aspect of training, socialisation and just being a humble best mate. Reg is a part of my heart.”

WESTERN NSW Local Health District CEO Scott McLachlan (pictured) has announced that he will be leaving the region to take up the role of Chief Executive of the Central Coast Local Health District.

“After eight years in this role, I believe it’s time for me to take on a new challenge, and to also allow a fresh leadership approach in this region,” Mr McLachlan said.

“This was my first posting as a Chief Executive and I’ve both learned from and enjoyed the role. It’s been a privilege to work with our exceptional clinical workforce, all the supporting services, our leadership team and board, and our local communities.

“It’s been a challenging role, but I could not have asked for a more rewarding experience.”

Mr McLachlan will depart on November 10, with interim leadership put in place before then, and permanent recruitment to also commence during that time.

“It isn’t easy to leave a job and a place that you love, but it’s time for me to take on something new.

I’m also looking forward to being able to bring my family closer together.”

Bubs galore as Dubbo springs

By JOHN RYAN ONE bub can be cause for huge excitement so the eight new baby Ring-tailed Lemurs at Dubbo’s Taronga Western Plains Zoo have given zookeepers and other staff a great boost as the organisation prepares to open its gates to the public after a demoralising lockdown period.

Zookeeper Sasha Brook said it’s the most successful breeding season for the Ring-tailed Lemur breeding group.

“We have five first-time mothers and three experienced mothers. They are all doing a great job caring for their babies. It’s not uncommon for keepers to see one mother grooming another mother’s baby throughout the day,” she said.

These bubs are the first offspring for new male, Skynard who arrived at Taronga Western Plains Zoo last year. Skynard recently immigrated to Australia from an overseas zoo which makes his fresh genetics incredibly important to the regional breeding program in Australasia.

“These babies are the second generation to be born at Taronga Western Plains Zoo and it is truly wonderful to see some of the first offspring born here now become mothers themselves.

“At the moment the infants are clinging to their mum’s bellies and suckling milk but in the coming month they will start to be more active and begin riding

on their mother’s backs more and more,” said Sasha.

Ring-tailed Lemurs only have a very small window to fall pregnant. The females generally come into season for just 24-48 hours each year, so if there isn’t a successful mating in those one or two days it’s a long time between drinks.

With the species’ breeding season generally falling around

March-May, births are usually expected in early spring following a four-month gestation period.

“The babies are currently a little difficult to see as they are small and clinging to their mum’s tummy but are most active in the mid-morning and mid-afternoon on the island if the weather is warm,” she said.

Dubbo’s very own zoo boasts

two groups of Ring-tailed Lemurs: a breeding group near the Savannah picnic ground and a bachelor group at the Savannah Lake. The breeding group now has 17 individuals including the most recent babies, while the bachelor group has four individuals.

The five males and three female babies are yet to be named.

Taronga Western Plains will reopen next Monday, October 18.

Study shows remote working healthier

DUBBO residents have been working from home like never before thanks to the Covid-19 lockdowns during the past 18 months so it’s interesting to see a new study commissioned by the NSW Government states flexible workers feel better rested, more engaged, and have a higher sense of wellbeing than their office-based counterparts.

The study, created in partnership with Edith Cowan University, analysed the experiences of 1039 NSW-based flexible workers throughout the 2020 pandemic lockdown to determine their psychological risk compared with non-flexible workers.

Director of the Centre for Work Health and Safety, Skye Buatava, said the dramatic shift to flexible work over the past few years caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need to ensure the right support mechanisms are in place for modern ways of working.

“Flexible and remote working has of course become common place over the last few years, and during last year’s lockdown, we commissioned this study to investigate how our workforce was finding working from home. It’s reassuring to see that for the most part, working flexibly can be a very positive experience for workers,” Ms Buatava said.

Flexible workers taking part in the study reported a more positive working environment and lower levels of sleeping troubles.

“It’s a rewarding responsibility”

By NATALIE LEWIS ANNETTE Ferguson relishes having her fur family around.

As someone who is legally blind, Annette’s guide dog Leo is a service animal providing assistance to navigate around the city.

Working with him has been a game-changer which has meant maintaining independence and feeling more confident in daily life.

“It’s changed my life heaps,” she said.

“It’s so nice to be able to have him there. It makes it easier to connect with other people; animals are a really good icebreaker. Before, I could walk in somewhere and not recognise anyone.

“It’s definitely a confidence in knowing where I’m going and finding things too. It’s given me more confidence to get around.”

Annette says pets also make the best housemates and begins to list the many ways in which they enhance her life.

“They are such good company, especially during lockdown!” she points out.

“They are nice to have around.

They like being with me. They are not demanding. They don’t talk back like kids! They are happy.”

Having pets as an alarm clock is also a valuable aspect of Annette’s routine.

“They are totally worth getting out of bed for and going for a walk,” she said.

“That routine is part of my day that I totally enjoy.”

She believes humans are also

happier when they have the role of care giver.

“I think people are happy when they have someone to care for,” she said. “If it was just me, I don’t think I’d be nearly as satisfied.”

She said having an animal as part of your life is enriching.

“I’m happy to sit around with

a cat or two, or a dog or two in the backyard. I think they are a natural anti-depressant. I feel 100 per cent happier when they are around. They are naturally happy and appreciative.”

However, this warm and fluffy story does come with a warning from this gregarious pet lover.

“When you are considering having a pet, you have to consider a lot of factors,” she said.

“You’ve got to put the time into them. You don’t just get a pet to throw them into the back yard.

Spending time with your pet, learning how they communicate and what they respond to is important.”

Her advice is to read books and watch videos about how they communicate and how to respond to your pet and its behaviour.

“There’s rules and etiquette, you need to socialise them,” Annette explained.

“It’s important for them to be around other dogs and not behave badly. They need to be confident and well-behaved.”

She summed it up by describing pet ownership as “a very rewarding responsibility”.

“It’s a responsibility, it’s not just for fun. There’s a lot of rewards in it as well.”

Cassie’s egg-cellent blues

By JOHN RYAN

CASSIE O’Neill may not be the legendary “Egg-Man” from the Beatle’s hit song “I am the Walrus", but she could well lay claim to being Dubbo’s Egg-Woman with her magical mystery blue eggs.

World Egg Day was October 8 and Cassie told Dubbo Photo News her business onthe-side is going egg-busters.

“They can’t lay them quickly enough. I’ve ordered more chooks for delivery next week,” she said.

“The word is out on just how good my eggs are.

They’re selling out mega quickly.”

She’s a big fan of eggs in all shapes and sizes and is keen to explore all the different varieties on offer across the world, as well as the dif-

ferent ways they’re cooked across varied cultures.

“How do you like your eggs? Every time I hear this question it reminds me of when I was in Fiji. I stayed at the Radisson Blu Resort on Denarau Island and I’d gone down for breakfast one morning,” she said.

“When they came to take my order they asked me this question. I thought about it for a minute and pondered how to answer. I only had it in my mind that I only ever have poached eggs for breakfast.

“So I said, well I like them cooked but still runny. Then he explained my options. I slid down my chair and hid under my table with embarrassment. Seriously though, we did all have a good laugh. I can’t hear this question without thinking of it."

Eggs are loved all around the world and enjoyed in many different ways and Cassie has all the relevant stats at her fingertips: “It’s incredible to know that in the past year, more than 6.3 billion eggs have been consumed globally with Australians eating more than 17.3 million eggs each day,” she said.

“If you’re one of the lucky ones, as my customers are, you get to eat eggs freshly laid by happy healthy hens.

Seriously you have not lived until you’ve eaten a fresh eggs laid only days before.”

On a sober financial note, eggs contribute $259 million to the NSW economy each year, but many of those chooks in that production line aren’t as pampered as Cassie’s, and the eggs aren’t quite as, well, egg-cellent.

Councillors return to City Hall AS the state goes back to work in what we’re all hoping will be the start of “the new normal”, Dubbo Regional Council’s elected representatives also returned to City Hall this week.

On Monday, fully vaccinated councillors and staff stepped foot into the Council Chambers for the first time in two months, returning for the last two scheduled meetings of the council term prior to the Local Government elections on December 4.

The public gallery was also thrown open to 15 double-vaccinated members of the community.

Mayor Stephen Lawrence was glad to be returning to the Council Chambers and to some semblance of normality.

“The return of a physical, in-person meeting symbolises the return to a normal way of life - albeit with some conditions, but it’s a positive step forward,” he said, signalling his intention to call a final council meeting for mid-November.

Cr Lawrence said upholding the Public Health Orders was “extremely important” to keep staff, councillors and the wider community safe, hence the requirement for all who attend meetings to be double vaccinated or at least have their second jab appointment booked.

Meetings will still be streamed via Council’s website and Facebook page, and should anyone who is not vaccinated wish to speak to Council, a presentation can be tabled and read aloud by staff.

If you would like to attend the council meeting on October 25, you will need to provide proof of double vaccination or evidence of booking for the second appointment, or an official health exemption.

You will be required to check in via QR codes and face masks will be mandatory.

You must register no later than two hours prior to the start of the meeting (that is, by 3.30pm).

If you are not vaccinated, you are still able to send a written submission.

DUBBO is just one community where residents will benefit from seven semi-trailers’ worth of donated groceries packed at Coles’ Adelaide distribution centre and distributed to communities across Western NSW that have been hit hard by Covid-19.

More than 160 pallets of goods including food and sanitary items will be transported to 12 regional and remote communities including Dubbo, Menindee, Tibooburra, Enngonia, Ivanhoe, Balranald, and Broken Hill.

The goods will comprise a total 3000 individual care packs which will help provide urgent support for vulnerable people who are in isolation in these communities and unable to leave their homes to buy food.

Each pack will contain about 22kg of food and other essentials, including pasta, fresh produce, cereals, shampoo and toilet paper.

Coles Chief Sustainability, Property and Export Officer Thinus Keeve said the Covid-19 outbreaks had left thousands of people in isolation, a situation that led to a large number of food security requests in these

areas.

“Team members at our Adelaide distribution centre will be working tirelessly to ensure the 3000 parcels of food will be delivered to people in communities who are in urgent need of essential food and grocery items,” Mr Keeve told Dubbo Photo News.

“Some of these care packs will take as long as 15 hours to make the 1300km journey from our distribution centre in Edinburgh Park in South Australia to where they are needed in regional NSW.” The New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council (NSW ALC) will be coordinating the on-the-ground distribution effort through its network of Local Aboriginal Land Councils.

Uniting, Salvation Army and Bourke Rural Fire Service will also be assisting with delivering care packs in their local communities.

NSW ALC Chairperson Anne Dennis said the organisation was keen to thank Coles for its generous offer of support during this challenging time for many communities, with this food a big help in enabling people to isolate safely.

“It will also provide a much-needed food supply for

October 14-20, 2021 Dubbo Photo News

communities impacted by product shortages and will help those communities coming out of lockdown to take a step towards recovery,” she said.

It’s a collaborative project: Coles has also partnered with The Big Issue’s Women’s Workforce to assist with packing the care packages, a social en-

terprise that employs women experiencing homelessness and disadvantage to complete third-party work for various organisations.

The Big Issue CEO Chris Enright said enlisting the help of the Women’s Workforce to pack hampers would provide women in South Australia ex-

Four-legged friends welcome as part of the Kintyre Package at Kintyre Living For Robina Boardman, bringing her two little long-time companions with her from Lightning Ridge to Kintyre Village was a deal breaker.

Fortunately, Kintyre management acknowledges the importance of furry family members and welcomed Robina’s two full-bred Chihuahuas to the fold along with their doting human.

Although there are strict policies in place with regard to pets to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all residents, Kintyre does everything it can to work with residents towards the best possible outcome for all, as was the case for Robina and her two little companions.

“I would not have been here at Kintyre if I hadn’t been able to bring the dogs. I lived in Lightning Ridge for 55 years and I found it fairly daunting to leave there, let alone face the pros-

pect of having to leave my pets behind, so that wasn’t an option.”

Mickey and Che-Che are half siblings, says Robina, adding that at 14 days older than her brother, Che-Che is definitely the “boss lady”.

Robina takes her little mates on a journey around the Kintyre Village twice a day, and has become a regular sight for fellow residents.

“Unfortunately, I don’t walk very well these days,” she says.

“But I’m a former golfer and I brought my golf buggy with me when I moved here from Lightning Ridge, so I walk the dogs on two long leads and on the buggy.

“We’re a fairly well-known sight around the village because we go around twice a day.

“Although we haven’t been here that long, Mickey and CheChe have taken over the whole

place and everyone gives them right of way!”

Robina says there are some residents Mickey in particular “absolutely loves”.

“He’ll jump out of the cart when he sees them and he runs up to get his morning pat.”

The positive impact Mickey and Che-Che have on Robina’s life at Kintyre Village is enormous.

“The dogs give me such companionship – I just do not know how I would cope without them.

They mean everything to me.

They’re very loving and I don’t know what I’d do without them.

“Living here at Kintyre is so good because the management here has been absolutely wonderful.

“It’s so wonderful that they welcome pets – I wouldn’t be here if they didn’t.”

YOUR STARS ARIES: With the recent change in weather, you’ll feel the need to stay in shape. This might prompt you to join a gym so you can exercise more regularly.

TAURUS: There’s no need to rush your decision. Let life’s ebb and flow guide you and carry you to the right destination. Listen to your intuition over the next few days.

GEMINI: Watch your step or you risk making a blunder that will leave those around you laughing.

Fortunately, only your pride will be hurt, and you’ll manage to ease the tension in the room.

CANCER: Time is in short supply. It would be a really bad idea to schedule too many appointments on the same day. Otherwise, some of them may end up over-lapping. A vacation might do you good.

LEO: As the days get increasingly longer, you’ll be eager to find an ac-

tivity to brighten your mood. A new pursuit will bring you a feeling of excitement that will make you want to go out and celebrate more often.

VIRGO: You’ll feel overly sensitive, and an event will push you to make changes in your life. At work, one of your company’s competitors may try to woo you with better conditions and opportunities for advancement.

LIBRA: You need to spruce up your look, and you won’t be able to resist spoiling yourself. You’re adept at negotiating good prices or cutting better deals for yourself and at work.

SCORPIO: At work, you find yourself stuck with all the emergencies and problematic files. Fortunately, this will benefit you in the long run by providing you with new tools for the next step in your career.

SAGITTARIUS: Your pride will be put to the test. Fortunately, you’ll have the opportunity to show off.

Just make sure it’s for the right reasons, and remember to share valuable information.

CAPRICORN: You’ll have to deal with some small, family-related obligations. You might also have to stay home for part of the week to keep an eye on renovations or wait for a delivery that’s expected to arrive.

AQUARIUS: You may find yourself being pulled in several directions at once. Plus, your phone won’t stop ringing. Avoid any type of criticism of your partner or loved ones if you want to preserve the hard-won peace you’ve earned.

PISCES: Be careful with your money, and try to stick to your budget as much as possible. There could be unexpected expenses around the corner related to your home or family. Discipline will become necessary if you have young children.

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

LOCAL business dynamo and founder of The Exchange, Jillian Kilby, is on the move north, expanding to take up a “second home” in Narrabri.

In 2018, Jillian purchased the old Telstra building in Dubbo’s main street – affectionately known as “the clocktower” – and set about restoring it to house a “social impact organisation” that provides co-working, office and event space along with “capacity building programs and an inclusive community for regional business

people”.

Now, following what Jillian says is the “overwhelming success” of The Exchange over the past three years since it opened its doors in Dubbo, the outfit is expanding to Narrabri, where it has purchased a heritage building in the town’s main street.

Local trades have already begun renovations on the 106-year-old red brick building, which originally housed a cordial factory and iceworks, and the new outpost will open in January 2022.

Even superheroes need help!

MENTAL health in Dubbo is being protected by a new generation of superheroes according to Provisional psychologist Kristy Cleary, who works as part of the Paediatric Psychology and Social Work Team at Dubbo Primary and Community Health.

Here she speaks with John Ryan about what Even Superheroes Need a Mental health Day Sometimes is all about.

••• Tell us about the Even Superheroes Need a Mental health Day Sometimes and why this event is so important.

Even Superheroes Need A Mental Health Day Sometimes (ESNAMHDS) is to recognise that even the bravest, strongest and most fierce people out there, need a mental health day sometimes. The idea of superheroes is something many kids look up to, and some even wish to be one when they grow up. By including a dress-up day in the process, where dress-up and pretend play is an important part of child development, we are more likely to gain the attention of our younger superheroes.

The reason our event is so important is that we need to make sure we look after our children’s mental health now, if we can,

Superheroes in Dubbo need help and, according to local child psychologist Kristy Cleary, the city’s children are keen to assist.

instead of trying to teach these life skills once they reach adulthood. There is still stigma around mental (ill) health and communities need to know that it is not only about going to see a psychologist, social worker or psychiatrist for therapy when times get tough.

Good mental health for ourselves as adults is learning about self-care, positive relationships, what is good for us and what to avoid. Good mental health in children follows the same theme, however children need guidance from their adult caregivers to learn these life-long skills.

Thanks to Covid-19, our plans for face-to-face activ-

ities changed. This year, we have kicked off October by scheduling daily posts on our Facebook page as resources for good mental health care. Not only do we have posts scheduled at 9am for the kids, we also have posts scheduled at 8pm for parents and carers. Whether it be Meditation Monday, Teaching Tuesday or Strategy Saturday, there is something every day of the week to support both children and their carers towards better mental health awareness.

What event do you have on Friday (Tomorrow, October 15) and how are you encouraging local businesses to take part?

We are holding our annual simultaneous superhero

dress-up day on Friday, and this year, along with schools, daycare’s and preschools, we would like to encourage all Dubbo and surrounding businesses to get on board.

The (people of the) Dubbo community and surrounding areas are a tough bunch. If it’s drought, fire, flooding, mice plagues or Covid-19, we stick together and get through it, no matter what is thrown at us. Joining in for our dress-up day shows we all recognise that Even Superheroes Need a Mental Health Day Sometimes and that is okay. If the kids see adults dressed up and know about our day, it will just consolidate the importance of looking after our mental health. We would love for anyone and everyone to send pictures via our Facebook page so we can share them with the community. Sharing to our page gives your consent for them to be published in the media.

Please get on our Facebook page and have a look at the posts scheduled every day.

There is a combination of great resources that we love to share with families and even if there is one small strategy, analogy or visual, that a parent or child takes away from the whole month of our posts, then we have done our job in creating better mental health awareness for our younger generation.

GROWING BACK TO NORMAL

Native plants grow into a social nest

By JOHN RYAN

Dream come true: Rob Riley, with son Nathan, at their nursery’s new site at Old Ganarrin. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

THE native plants have landed and Rob Riley couldn’t be happier.

He loved working at the site of the former ICAN nursery in the old Forestry block opposite the RAAF Base but says welding his varied operations into the location at Old Ganarrin Nursery has worked like a charm.

“After a couple of years in the wilderness of not really knowing where we were going to be, after NSW Forestry eventually sold the Cobra Street site, the NSW government basically sold the site from underneath us, but we’ve landed on our feet I think here in this location and we’re here, basically, for the next decade and I think it’s probably bigger and better than what we ever could have expected,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

He says while the nursery is a large part of the activities, the whole concept behind Pathways Together Aboriginal Corporation is about far more than simply selling native plants.

“We can’t wait to get back into our programs – obviously Covid-19 has affected the Aboriginal community pretty harshly here in Dubbo, it’s been really tough for a lot of people,” he said.

“I know within my own family there’s a large number who contracted Covid-19, thankfully most have got through that and that has gone right across the whole community.

“I think there’ll be a lot of people who’ll be crying out for assistance so we’ll be running our unemployment, school and carer programs. We’ve now got a café as well so we’re hoping to do some cooking classes and make it a café with a little bit of a different spin.”

Mr Riley said the many people who benefitted from participating in the various ICAN programs have been giving great feedback about how much they’ve missed social interaction and the opportunity for personal growth during the immense dislocation of participation that came with the lockdown.

“So every day we’d have a phone call from someone asking when they can come back, even if it’s just coming out for a cup of tea, or sit in the garden and unfortunately they haven’t been able to do any of that.”

And while the uncertainty of the past two years was difficult, he believes the new site is made to order not just for the retail business side of things, but in so many ways that aren’t so easily

accounted for in a balance sheet or financial ledger by which society these days seems to be judged.

“Everyone who’s come here has spoken about just the different feel that it has to our old nursery,” he said.

“The forestry land felt to us like a comfortable site but now we’re here we’re just realising the atmosphere and amenity is the next level, because I think, we’re truly connected back to the river so I think for Aboriginal people that was our lifeblood and just being so close with that connection I think will really help.”

He believes that ambience will not only help with sales, but also in the cultural sense when program participants will feel that positive impact on their mental health.

“We’re open for business and can’t wait to show people what we’ve got out here.

“I’ve handed the nursery over to our charity, so Pathways Together Aboriginal Corporation has the nursery now and it’s trading as Old Ganarrin Nursery and Café, while ICAN is still doing our school programs and still doing some of the other activities that we’ve been running for a decade.”

Exciting times! PCYC the happiness hub

By JOHN RYAN

IT was exciting interviewing Dubbo PCYC manager Emily Ross, because she was so excited to have kids back in the building.

In fact, this interview contained the word “exciting” more than any other.

“It is so exciting, I honestly couldn’t wait,” she told Dubbo Photo News, while wearing a huge smile of joy and relief.

“I’ve missed them. I was so excited to call all the staff and let them know we’d be opening the doors and everyone else said they’d been missing the kids as well.

“Whatever your day may bring, when you see smiling kids coming through the door it makes any day good.”

The one message that came through loud and clear down at the PCYC was that working there is far more than just showing up for a job.

Emily said staff have an immense culture of being passionate about creating human happiness.

“I think everyone here’s the same. If you enjoy what you do, you don’t work a day in your life and I truly believe that here, everyone here is passionate and has a commitment to the youth of our community.”

Many of the youngsters, she

says, treat the PCYC as their second home and there have been many remote interactions between staff and their charges during the lockdown period which show just how important such a safe and fun place is for so many young Dubbo lives.

“It has been tough. A lot of our staff have found it tough as well as the kids. A lot of our gymnastics

coaches for example participated here as kids in the program and then moved into coaching and I think the fact we’re reopening is that little bit of light for them, that they’re able to come back to the PCYC,” she said.

The semi-chaotic, organised mayhem of the super successful Friday night police programs have proved so crucial for so many local

kids and their families. Emily says everyone has been missing those evenings and while she’s not sure when they’ll get back underway, she’s hoping the regulations will evolve to allow them to resume as soon as is safely possible.

“I don’t know when that will happen or what that’s going to look like. We’ll obviously be guided by health guidelines with that and

what we can actually do to ensure that everyone stays safe as well.

“When we put the reopening post up we had so many kids messaging us saying they couldn’t wait to be able to come back. We had voice messages from kids saying thank you so much for letting us come back, it’s really, really exciting.

“I love it. I get goosebumps. I had one of my staff come in, in tears, because one of her kids had sent her a voice message saying thank you so much for letting me come back. I think that just shows the passion of our staff and the importance of what we do here.”

She said the lockdowns had created fracture lines across the community with so many people forcibly separated from family and friends.

That rebuilding of community, she says, is one of the great strengths of Dubbo PCYC, where relationships blossom between everyone involved.

“It’s gorgeous to see the relationships grow. Some of our kids in kinder gym come in and do their class and then they’re waiting outside putting their shoes on, they’re all excited and go next door for a milkshake with their friends so you see those relationships grow and blossom in and outside of class.”

Working dog auction strikes gold

By NATALIE LEWIS THE Geurie Golden Collar working dog auction has been held for the third time, with astounding results. Organiser Ryan Johnston said the annual event achieved two national records.

The highest priced Border Collie to be sold at auction in Australia was Lot 26 Cabra Glebe Big for a whopping $30,100 by Casino-based Joe Leven to a North QLD buyer. The second record was the highest priced dog under 12 months – a 10-month-old Border Collie – which sold for $21,500, eclipsing the 2020 record of $17,050. This was Lot 10

FL Search sold by Rob Hodgman from Pinkett NSW to a North West NSW purchaser.

With 28 vendors from NSW and QLD and buyers from five states, the auction was held wholly online for the first time due to the Covid-19 pandemic restricting travel.

Using the Helmsman selling system where all lots are visible at one time, the auction was hosted

by AuctionsPlus for seven days.

“My worry was that we weren’t going to get the excitement you would get with a live auction,” Mr Johnson said.

“I thought people would be more conservative online.”

Mr Johnston was astounded by

the auction’s outcome which featured 182 active bidders and 37 buyers. He said 44 of the 48 dogs were sold to average $6302, making it a highly successful event.

“I’m blown away,” he said.

“I was completely shocked by the prices some of the dogs obtained, it was a frenzy of bids as the 2pm auction cut-off time came around. People hooked in; they went ballistic.”

Mr Johnston said 80 per cent of bids were made in the last 40 minutes.

“The dog that made $30,100 had 47 bids. The dog that made $21,500 was at $5700 when the top priced dog made $30,100. It was just a

flow-on effect. We were probably $2000 higher across the lots.

“People didn’t want to go home empty-handed,” he said.

Mr Johnston said it was highly positive that 11 dogs were sold locally to Molong, Dubbo, Geurie, Toongi and Yeoval.

“It was really great to have the local support,” he said.

And while the Geurie Golden Collar Working Dog Trial weekend had to be cancelled for the

second year in a row due to Covid-19, the auction is growing in dog and vendor numbers, and average price each year.

“I think it shows the huge demand for quality working dogs and that people are starting to really see their true value and put a monetary price on the value to their jobs and business.

“It’s a great time to be in the working dog industry.”

Magnolia blossoms despite Covid conditions Plenty of cavities

By JOHN RYAN LOCKDOWNS have been tough for so many local businesses in what has become a real twospeed economy.

Sectors like construction are so busy the various trades and suppliers can’t find enough workers to keep up, yet players in other sectors may never recover.

Karyl-Lee Callaghan operates Magnolia Nursery on Wheelers Lane and said her experience has been a little different to most business during lockdown, with her business classified as essential, and therefore "lucky" to be allowed to trade through the lockdown.

“I’m grateful for being able to trade, as this lockdown coincided with Spring, the most important financial period for a plant nursery,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“But I say "lucky" certainly with tongue-in-cheek. The stresses involved with trying to trade in a pandemic, while trying to protect your staff, your family and yourself have been ridiculous.”

Public Health Orders and regulations have been put in place to ensure the safety of both customers and staff but Karyl-Lee says individuals often don’t have the patience or insight to comprehend the situation.

“Some people do not understand that it's not the retailer setting the

public health rules,” she said.

“The rules have been ambiguous and kept on changing which made them difficult for customers to keep up with and/or understand. I have wished many times that the rules for essential shopping were spelled out clearly, so that my staff and I were not put in the difficult situation of having to explain and enforce rules.

“Shopping in a plant nursery is supposed to be enjoyable and relaxing, certainly not under these

conditions.”

Like many retailers, Magnolia has found operating the business under pandemic conditions being described as difficult is an understatement.

While Karyl-Lee says the rules allow the shop to be open, it’s far less clear how that can happen on a daily, practical basis.

“It is okay to say you can open and trade, but how? The practicality of running your business when the transport system col-

lapses and you can’t get your stock here, suppliers run out of stock, etc etc, we could go on for hours,” she said.

“The nursery industry has worked extremely hard to keep things running and, my gosh, I appreciate the efforts of our friends in the production nurseries and our fellow retail nurserymen who have worked together with us to keep our industry working.

“It has been a hard slog but we are hopefully nearly there.”

Canine care and companionship

PETS are part of the package at the Dubbo Homestead Care Community where the resident dogs are both carer and companion.

Eleven-year-old Miley the border collie came onto the scene as a therapy dog last year.

General manager Margaret Irish says Miley is an important aspect of the care community.

“She is part of the leadership team of the home,” she explained. “I spent 18 months looking for her.”

Earlier this year, Miley was joined by Brim the fox terrier, who moved into the home as an existing companion to one of the new residents.

CLADDING SPECIALS

Margaret said they get along well, with the pecking order quickly established.

“Sometimes she lets him know who is boss but they are friends,” she laughed.

According to Healthline, interacting with a pet can help overcome many physical and mental issues. It can reduce blood pressure and improve overall cardiovascular health.

It can also release endorphins that produce a calming effect.

This can alleviate pain, reduce stress, and improve your overall psychological state.

Margaret said becoming a therapy pet is well-suited to a retired guide or police dog.

She explained that therapy or assistance dogs provide a better quality of life for residents in aged care or nursing

facilities.

“The results show that dogs are fantastic for the elderly or people in long term care,” she said.

“If they have a pet, it combats loneliness, and also helps with dementia if they have a dog as a companion.

“Doing things like walking the dog, feeding the dog, watching the dog get washed, brushing the dog – it helps with their routine. It gives individuals a sense of living with purpose.

“If they are agitated, it helps with calming them down. It’s about distraction.”

Margaret said the dogs are an important part of their care community.

“A home has a dog and this is their home.”

DUBBO kids, like their mates across much of the nation, often have an aversion to cleaning their teeth and with World Cavity Free Future Day marked on October 14, new research has revealed some troubling findings: z 70 per cent of parents and nearly half (45 per cent) of their children have suffered from tooth decay, with one in five (20 per cent) of these children experiencing symptoms of the disease in the last 12 months z Nearly half of children in the 6-12 age group don’t brush their teeth for the recommended two minutes per session (43 per cent) and nearly 18 per cent are only brushing their teeth once a day z 40 per cent of parents surveyed said they are worried about the health of their children’s teeth z 78 per cent of parents who said they face challenges when it comes to brushing their children’s teeth, the need for supervision (48 per cent), the morning rush (39 per cent) and kids wanting to eat after brushing their teeth (31 per cent) were cited as the most common barriers to brushing z Seven in ten (71 per cent)of parents say they wish they had taken better care of their teeth when they were younger The presence of dental cavities (tooth decay) is the most common oral disease and among the most prevalent health conditions in Australian children – it is more common than asthma.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

Home invaded THERE are some gutless lowlifes who live amongst us.

About 3.30am last Saturday morning (October 9) an 85-yearold man and 84-year-old woman woke to a noise inside their Tamworth Street home.

Imagine their horror when they found two unknown males searching the house and their shock when these two cowards allegedly threatened the elderly occupants with secateurs.

The couple was detained by the men, who demanded firearms.

They fled in the victims’ Ford Fairlane with some cash – the car has since been located.

Thankfully no injuries were reported from the incident.

The alleged home invaders are described as being of Aboriginal/ Torres Strait Islander appearance and both were wearing dark hooded jumper/jackets, face masks and gloves.

If anyone has any information or noticed any suspicious activity, please contact Dubbo Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Puzzling health orders DO you understand the current health orders now that we’re coming out of lockdown?

Clear as mud?

You’re not alone. No-one I’ve talked to seems to be totally clear on everything, with most people having far more questions on various issues than answers.

“This is a mess and it shouldn’t be,” Shadow minister for Regional NSW Mick Veitch said.

I reckon that sums things up.

That said, I don’t know if anyone in politics has the answers at the moment and the last time I checked, there weren’t any crystal balls for sale in the Dubbo Photo News classifieds.

Pursuit, drug charges

POLICE on patrol noticed the driver of a Toyota Aurion acting suspiciously just before 9:30am on October 8 on Cobbora Road. After a pursuit was initiated, the driver allegedly hit speeds of about 100km/h in a 50km zone. The pursuit was terminated due to safety concerns when the Toyota allegedly crossed onto the incorrect side of the road at Fitzroy Street.

Police found the car abandoned in Strickland Street, with residents telling them a man had been seen running through backyards in the vicinity and, following a

brief foot pursuit, a 36-year-old man was arrested.

Officers found $1460 cash during a search of his clothing and nearly 14g of methylamphetamine (ice) was located in a sock nearby and also seized.

Checks revealed the 36-yearold’s driver’s licence had recently

been suspended.

The Trangie man was charged with police pursuit – not stop – drive dangerously, drive motor vehicle while licence suspended, take part supply prohibited drug (indictable quantity) and knowingly deal with proceeds of crime.

Further inquiries saw a search warrant executed on a Cobbora Rd home where police seized an amount of cocaine and methylamphetamine (ice), as well as prescription medication, more than $2100 cash and mobile phones.

A 33-year-old man was arrested at the scene and subsequently charged with owner/occupier knowingly allow use drug premises, three counts of possess prohibited drug, and two counts of deal with property proceeds of crime.

High rise hits record price for Dubbo A MUCH-ANTICIPATED residential development has changed the Dubbo landscape in more ways than one, with a new record sale price recorded for a single residence.

An un-named buyer has forked out a staggering $1.775million off the plan for a three-bedroom penthouse at the development known at No.1 Church Street, which is also a new high for a strata title property.

Contracts exchanged in late September, establishing what agents Bob Berry Real Estate say is “a game changer for confidence in the local housing market”.

“This sale has taken Dubbo housing to a new price level as buyers react positively to the opportunity to buy previously unavailable prestige apartments,” according to the agency.

Located in the CBD on the corner of Bligh Street overlooking the river, No.1 Church Street is Dubbo’s first high rise apartment building.

I only moved here with my Mummy and Daddy in February. Fingers crossed that lockdowns will be over soon and I can party with

Gracie’s birthday is October 21, so we hope the easing of restrictions means she is able to spend her special day with family and friends.

Gracie Rose Bailey may be just shy of her first birthday but she definitely knows what she wants - an end to lockdowns so she can celebrate turning one with her family and friends.

Wello councillors vote against ward abolition

Wellington Lions' president Chris Hardy says you never know what you'll find at the club's pre-loved book fair. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/JOHN RYAN

Books galore at Wello fair Wellington councillors believe the town will miss out if the ward system is abolished at the next Local Government election. Pictured is the Wellington offices of Dubbo Regional Council, formerly the Wellington Council Chambers.

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

By NATALIE LEWIS A MAJORITY of Dubbo-based councillors have opposed the wishes of their Wellington cohort by voting to hold a referendum to abolish the ward system.

Cr Vicky Etheridge proposed the motion which was backed by all but one fellow Dubbo councillor, Greg Mohr, and the two Wellington representatives, David Grant and Deputy Mayor Anne Jones.

Cr Etheridge described the ward system as "undemocratic" and "a disaster".

“The ward system simply doesn’t suit this community,” she said.

“By splitting us into five wards, we don’t offer a proper choice for everyone. That was why it was so confusing and unpopular at the last election.”

Cr Etheridge’s initial motion was amended by Mayor Stephen Lawrence to include shifting from a five-ward system with 10 elected councillors to a single area with 11 councillors.

Cr Jones stated she couldn’t support the proposal because she believes the ward system ensures the Wellington community has a voice.

“I understand Dubbo voters want to be able to vote for a candidate of their choice but this will be at the expense of representation in Wellington,” she said.

“In the 2024 elections, will the residents of Dubbo and Wellington know the candidates from the whole Local Government Area or will the Dubbo candidates overshadow any candidates from Wellington?” she asked councillors.

“Please give Wellington a fair go and have a voice to represent

its diverse rural community.”

Cr David Grant was disappointed to see the notion raised, saying he was concerned they were not taking the right process at the right time.

“We’ve worked hard to get the community to come together. I don’t think losing our two voices is democratic,” he said.

“It was confusing last time but we have gone through that.”

While supportive of the abolition of the ward system, Cr Greg Mohr said he wants Wellington to have a voice as well. In voting against the motion, he said he needed more time before he could support it.

In passing the motion, Council’s CEO Murray Wood will now engage the NSW Electoral Commission to conduct the referendum as part of the Local Government Election on December 4.

By JEN COWLEY ALEX Boney has the kind of twinkle in his eye and quick cheeky grin that makes you smile even before he opens his mouth to say g’day.

It’s just one of the things that makes the 25-year-old new dad such a popular and valuable part of the LeaderLife team, which operates out of Apollo Estate in East Dubbo, helping young people to live their best lives despite sometimes overwhelming challenges.

Alex is well known and loved throughout the social housing estate where, in LeaderLife’s own words, most people are living with “intergenerational disadvantage and trauma”, but his dedication to the community and to his job as a youth worker have not gone unnoticed in wider society.

Back in January, the born-andbred Dubbo man was named the city’s 2021 Young Citizen of the Year, and while it’s a fitting recognition for the positive impact he’s had on so many young lives, Alex is by no means in it for the accolades.

He simply loves what he does, the people he works for and with, and the way it makes him feel when he sees youngsters not just surviving, but thriving.

“I used to come here as a kid,” Alex says, sweeping his arm around to take in Apollo House and its grounds from where we sit on the verandah. “I used to live across the road there.”

His passion for working with youngsters came not just from his happy times at the long-established community hub, but from the example set by his father.

“My old man was in the industry for 30-odd years, so I had a good role model in him.”

As he grew up, Alex says the realisation dawned that neither

school nor academia were a good fit for him, but he knew he wanted to forge a career in youth work.

Enter LeaderLife, and its CEO Joh Leader, who gave the energetic young man his start.

“And here I am,” he beams, absentmindedly but dextrously tossing a footy up and down as we chat.

“The best part of my job is seeing these kids succeeding at life – seeing them smile really makes me happy. If the kids are happy, we’re all happy – that’s true for all society.”

As a youth worker, Alex spends his workdays – and often his own time as well – wrangling a cohort of “young fellas”.

“We do all kinds of maintenance, fencing, gardening, mow-

ing – all those kinds of jobs. We do a lot of yard maintenance,” he explains, adding that it’s not just about skills development.

“Some kids need tough love.

You’re there to be their father figure and you’re there to be their boss too – it’s about being a role model.

“We wear multiple hats and we have multiple approaches. We’re here moving mountains and doing the hard yards. We’re not here to be recognised, that’s not what it’s about.

“We’re here because of our love for these kids.”

Asked to name the most common misconception about the youngsters he’s working with, Alex is quick off the mark with his answer.

“People tend to think that as

soon as a kid makes a mistake, that’s it. If a young fella gets into trouble once, lots of people will write him off – they think he’s done and dusted.

“But really, these young blokes I work with, they’ve made multiple mistakes, but they still show up, they still turn up, they’re still having a go and looking after each other – then they go home and they’re taking that attitude of showing up and looking after each other, they’re taking that home with them.

“They’re going home and they’re looking after their families, and that’s the main thing.

“People don’t think they deserve a second chance, that once they’ve stuffed up, well, that’s it for them.

But that’s not the reality.

“Showing these kids some love and kindness goes a long way – that’s where it starts.”

With the benefit of having spent more than a little time at Apollo House over the years, I see LeaderLife demonstrably making a significant difference here in this often-troubled community, and I ask Alex how it feels to see a young person who was on a oneway ticket to disaster now turning things around, and to know he’s had a positive input in empowering that youngster.

“No words for it. Honestly. I can’t describe it,” he says, flashing an even more megawatt grin than usual. “That’s what makes you get up in the morning.

“Talking about it gives me goose bumps. There’s nothing to compare with the emotional impact of knowing you’re doing your job and that job is making a difference like it’s supposed to.

“I have a new baby and want to make sure she’s on the right path too. I know that life is a balance, and whatever hassles I’m bringing home from work, I’ll leave that at the front door. But I’m also bringing home lessons from the work I’m doing with these kids who are teaching me something every day.”

And his advice to others who’d like a taste of what it feels like to help empower our community’s young marginalised people to live their best lives?

“Show up. It’s as simple as that.

We’re here, we’re doing it.

MENTAL HEALTH

How life experience threw Cate a Lifeline

By JEN COWLEY THERE’S not much of Cate Whiteley, but what she lacks in physical stature, she more than makes up for with an energy and enthusiasm that seems to know no bounds.

The Geurie-based pocket rocket is a regional manager of renowned mental health support service Lifeline, where she holds the reins for the outfit across the Central West, Dubbo and Western Districts, a position she’s held for just over 12 months after first coming into the fold as a volunteer.

Over the years, she’s bobbed up in various places around the traps, but this gig with Lifeline seems like the ultimate good fit for a warm and engaging person like Cate.

It seems as though everything was leading her here to this role.

A life experience lifeline, if you will.

“Funny you should say that,” she muses as we sip our coffees in one of the meeting rooms at the organisation’s shiny new-ish Dubbo premises.

“I approached Lifeline Central West because I wanted to volunteer, and as I was going through the process of doing the training, I was told about this role and that it might be a good fit for me.”

It came, she says, at a moment in her life when she was feeling the need to “engage and support others in a meaningful way” so the opportunity to work in the organisation beyond being a volunteer was serendipitous.

“I’m at a stage in life where I just wanted to look at connecting with community in a way that I thought would be helpful.”

Cate holds a degree in business – “I did that aeons ago!” – and recounts her experience of moving into the “corporate space”, having her children, and continuing the pursuit of a work-life balance as a working mum.

“We’d always moved between our farm at Geurie and Sydney – we always had to have off-farm income – and I continued in that corporate world for many years.”

The life experience Cate gained

throughout this time has been invaluable in her current role, and she recalls Lifeline Central West’s CEO talking about “live, love, loss” as being the foundation for the empathy required for the job.

“I think anyone who has had experiences in those things can understand and empathise with the vulnerabilities of others.”

Although it’s a crucial part of the Lifeline operation, the organisation’s remit goes well beyond the telephone service – there’s work to be done in communities and with corporates, helping people to understand wellbeing and trying to debunk some of the prevailing myths about mental health and ill-health.

“We try to increase the conversation and decrease the sense of shame that some people have when they’re not coping.

“And we find that everything we do on the phone we use in our daily lives with family, with friends, the connections we make.”

Lifeline isn’t just for when you’re in crisis – that’s one of the myths, according to Cate.

“There is a very close association with suicide and people in crisis with suicidal thoughts, but actually it’s a line that links people to all kinds of services.

“We have a lot of people who ring and are asking for help on behalf of someone else, and we also often have three-way conversations with a person who’s concerned as well as the individual who is struggling.

“Lifeline provides that space where a person can tell their story safely and then have a choice about what course of action comes next.”

Sometimes, she says, it’s not necessarily the case that a person who calls will be in crisis – often it’s about simply having someone to talk to.

“A lot of people either feel others aren’t going to understand their challenges or they don’t want to share or burden their loved ones, but they’ve reached a point where they’re feeling beyond hopeless about certain things that are going on.

“Lifeline is confidential and you are able to be anonymous, so you can tell your story without judgement. There’s a sense of connection with someone who listens and understands who can then give support if that’s what the individual wants.”

Cate says the real value of an organisation like Lifeline is when it empowers those it’s supporting.

“Something we often forget about support organisations is that they’re most effective when they help people to help themselves.

“Part of any healing or growth is to consider how we take the next step to support ourselves.

“If we are helping to raise awareness in community, then it’s helping people to know where they can tap into services that can help them to help themselves.”

••• WHEN we think of Lifeline, it’s mostly in terms of the voice at the end of the “13 11 14” line, but there’s a lot that goes into keeping an organisation this size with a reach this large ticking.

Cate still gives her time as a support volunteer for the phone service, but when she’s not manning the phones, her place as manager is something of a sheep dog role.

“One day, I might spend getting in touch with volunteers or touching base with volunteer supervisors, another day I might be writing a grant or funding application so we can do some training in the community, or I might be assisting with training or talking to someone about partnering for programs.”

She laughs at the sheep dog analogy, but that’s the aspect of the job she most loves.

“It’s such a varied role. I find the work we’re doing with those touch points in a crisis situation over the phone, or building awareness in community or helping with the EAP (Employee Assistance Program) – those are all ways in which we support and link people to enable them to work out what’s right for them.

“It’s not about telling them what we think they should be doing, it’s empowering them to trust their

 It’s not about telling them what we think they should be doing, it’s empowering them to trust their own judgement... 

own judgement.”

We circle back to the start of our conversation, and the fact that this paid role came to be thanks to Cate’s approach to Lifeline in the hope of volunteering, and we agree that such can be the power of stepping up to “give back”.

“I had really forgotten the power of finding the right volunteering space for yourself as an individual. If you find that space, you often find you get so much more out of volunteering than you feel you give.

“Although we’re all busy and we all have competing demands in life, one of the things I’m constantly reminded of is when you’re in the right space and it aligns with your values, it actually gives you energy rather than taking it.”

For an organisation that serves the community – be it Lifeline or

any one of a number in that similar vein – volunteering as a first step is not only the rewarding but savvy way to get a foot in the door, Cate says.

“Volunteering is a brilliant way of getting a better understanding, and of finding out what something is all about rather than basing our impression on what we think we know – what we’ve read, seen, heard, rather than the reality.

“We all have different drivers, different interests, comfort zones.

“Volunteering is the perfect way to find what resonates with you without having to commit wholeheartedly immediately. It can help you understand if the organisation or that space is right for you.”  If you, or anyone you care about needs support or someone to talk to, Lifeline is available for ‘round-theclock support on 13 11 14.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Sad cemetery

The Editor, I read with interest the article by Natalie Lewis in the September 23-29 edition of Dubbo Photo News which expressed the concern of Yvette Aubusson-Foley at the poor state of the grounds at Western District Memorial Park.

As my wife is buried there might I add my voice of concern also at the poor state of that cemetery.

Although where her grave is situated is not as bad as that pictured where Yvette’s parents are buried, the whole place looks far worse than it should.

It was once very nice and a pleasure to visit, but I get quite despondent when I see it nowadays.

When compared with the New Dubbo Cemetery on the Dunedoo Road, WDMP comes off a very poor second.

Also, by contrast, I have a son buried at the Wagga Wagga Lawn Cemetery, and it is a far better design/layout and is set up and kept like a botanical gardens. It went through the same drought that Dubbo did.

I feel the owners/managers of WDMP could do a lot better and show far greater respect for the families of people interred there.

Brian E Semmler, Dubbo

Reds under the bed The Editor, There was a warning often used over half a century ago that said ‘Beware of the Reds under the bed’. This of course related to the hidden communists of that time.

Had the Reds stayed under those beds we would not be in the position we find ourselves in now.

A look at the socialist influences in nearly all our institutions paints a dismal picture. Neither the bureaucracy, military, legal system, medical,

financial and religious organisations, just to name some, have escaped this infiltration.

It is when the Reds got into their beds that the problems escalated.

Small wonder the many Australians have the feeling Australia is being screwed.

Martin Penny, Dubbo

Everyday objects a danger to white cane users The Editor It has been revealed that over 70 per cent of Australian white cane users are put in danger by ‘everyday’ objects.

Common objects like cars parked across driveways, bins left out on footpaths, dumped bikes or scooters, and even people being distracted by mobile devices can impact the freedom and independence of people with low vision or blindness.

On International White Cane Day (October 15), Guide Dogs Australia is focusing on how everyone can take simple steps to create a safer and more accessible environment for all, especially as communities re-open after extended periods of COVID-19 lockdowns.

Our ‘Keep Clear and Carry On’ campaign highlights the very real impact these ‘everyday’ objects can have on people living with low vision and blindness – causing them to feel anxious, unsafe and in danger when travelling. This can add to someone’s travel time, change daily routines or even cause some people to withdraw from going about day-to-day life.

White canes are designed to maximise independence and mobility, so this year we want to bring to light the barriers preventing this and raise awareness Dale Cleaver, CEO at Guide Dogs NSW/ACT

Great divide of “rampant corporate capitalism” John Ryan ❚ OPINION WHEN capitalism works, it’s great.

The problem is that so much of capitalism works only for the very few at the top who are already obscenely wealthy.

Don’t get me wrong – Communism is far worse, but the current situation, which I call “rampant corporate capitalism”, is laying everything and everyone to waste as it inexorably creates a class of super-rich, and a lesser class of people who don’t have to work, but work at becoming ever more wealthy.

And governments are complicit, they pander to these super-rich who hire lobbyists who are themselves super-rich, because they get more than their fair chunk of the pie.

Let’s look at the Pandora Papers, the even more horrific sequel to the Panama Papers: We’ve just seen the release of another 11.9 million documents which illustrate rampant tax avoidance by these uber-rich on an almost unbelievable scale.

In simple terms, that means the poorer people – who can’t get out of paying tax on a weekly basis – end up financing the roads, railways, hospitals, police, govern-

ment bureaucracies and health systems that these rich people use to get richer, without them having to pay for those costs.

Thank you to the Consortium for Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), an organisation which uncovered this 2.94 terabyte ‘data trove’ which exposed the “offshore secrets of wealthy elites from more than 200 countries and territories. These are people who use tax and secrecy havens to buy property and hide assets” according to the ICIJ website.

The investigations included more than 330 politicians from a range of nations as well as 130 Forbes billionaires, “celebrities, fraudsters, drug dealers, royal family members and leaders of religious groups around the world”.

The ICIJ said its reporters spent more than a year structuring, researching and analysing the data trove.

This news comes in the week where Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp melted down globally, with Facebook execs spinning it as “some people are having trouble accessing our apps and products” when in fact the entire online whole world had lost access.

And that outage comes just days after the Wall Street Journal ran a series of articles called the Facebook Files which prompted the US 60 Minutes program to air a story on a company whistle-blower, Frances Haugen, who stated that Facebook’s own research showed how the social media platform “ magnifies hate and misinformation, leads to increased polarisation”. ` It’s pretty simple to see All in the pursuit of money – why our politicians should making the world a worse place doesn’t seem to factor into the not be allowed to become company’s mission statement. lobbyists of any sort after It’s pretty simple to see why Austhey leave office... a tralia, at a federal level, not only

needs an Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), but also a total ban on professional lobbyists who get superior access to our elected and bureaucratic decision-makers.

It’s pretty simple to see why our politicians should not be allowed to become lobbyists of any sort after they leave office – so many have themselves become obscenely wealthy from these post-political careers.

Here’s a hypothetical example: A minister makes a decision which massively benefits a corporation.

That minister retires from

politics.

That former minister gets a consultancy role with that corporation that massively benefitted from their decision, on top of the generous parliamentary superannuation scheme which normal taxpayers don’t get access to.

That new ‘consultant’ tells the new minister who they mentored that if they make the ‘right’ decisions, they too will be featherbedded for life.

Similar things happen in the senior bureaucratic echelons.

The simple fact is that these uber-rich people get amazing access to our senior pollies, especially if they control much of the developed world’s media.

As senior politicians in the NSW Government bailed in recent days there’s been plenty of speculation about what information ICAC has up its sleeve.

But the most disturbing aspects to this issue of transparency in government are the fact that the state coalition has been progressively defunding ICAC, and that federal Labor has refused to support the establishment of a proper national Independent Commission Against Corruption.

If you’re an honest politician, how could you possibly not support that? z Note: John Ryan is also an elected councillor serving on Dubbo Regional Council. He writes here in his capacity as a Dubbo Photo News journalist.

GILGANDRA Evening Country Women’s Association (CWA) branch sees homelessness as an issue right near the top of its agenda.

Publicity Officer Hilda Newstead says this year’s theme for NSW Awareness Day was "Homelessness, Who is my Neighbour?" and told Dubbo Photo News homelessness is a problem that goes beyond "rooflessness" and lack of access to safe shelter.

“The experience of homelessness includes vulnerable people living in refuges, crisis accommodation or in temporary housing and a majority of people experience homelessness long term,” she said.

“In Australia many of the homeless are from larger cities and it’s estimated that at any given night approximately 116,000 people will be homeless, with many more living

in insecure housing which is one step away from being homeless.”

People known to be at a particular risk include those who have experienced some form of domestic violence, young people and children on care and protection orders.

“There are more then 15,000 homeless women in NSW with family and sexual domestic violence the leading cause of a crisis which has become a tsunami,” she said. “The hidden face of homeless that is growing at a terrific rate.

“It’s often women with no superannuation leaving a dysfunctional relationship and Indigenous Australians who find themselves homeless, without means and unable to afford a rental property. The CWA of NSW is trying to bring some of these stories into the light.”

She cites disturbing statistics, with NSW "boasting" both the largest and fastest growing population of homeless, 32 per cent of homeless Australians living in this state.

The Covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns have created extra hardship for so many and Mrs Newstead says women are at the greatest risk of housing stress, with mass unemployment directly linked to a rise in domestic violence.

“There are already more than 50,000 households on the social housing waiting list.

That was before Covid-19,” she said.

“Many homeless women, trying to survive by house-sitting for friends or couch surfing when these options were not available.

within a community is highly important.

“Many organisations provide crisis accommodation, however it is still a huge problem and this year’s awareness week had a particular focus on the need in rural and regional NSW.” She said building more community housing would provide a solid economic boost across the nation as those projects are labour and capital intensive.

Mrs Newstead said the CWA was also keen to see the removal of regulatory barriers at the local, state and federal levels of government to allow more homes and apartments to be built as well as reducing the time and cost of that building activity.

“That will make a very significant difference, we all must work together."

Dubbo Photo News October 14-20, 2021

Toga party signals end of lockdowns Words and photos by KEN SMITH THE last Friday evening before lockdown ended brought the perfect weather for a socially-distanced, driveway style “toga party” get-together with neighbours, Lakeside Circuit residents meeting at their own mailboxes to raise a glass to fellow householders doing the same thing.

Some weeks earlier, the first such get-together became a regular event with a weekly theme to kick the fun to another level.

Themes during the past weeks included the ‘80s, the formal (complete with finest attire and all looking fabulous) and the first day of spring (all bright and floral).

Dubbo Photo News was told the next gathering will be the eagerly anticipated return to normal backyard gathering, “just like we used to”.

Kerrie Murphy has enjoyed these socially-distanced neighbourhood gatherings.

Leo and Justine Foley getting into the toga spirit.

Katrina and Dennis Alexander found the garlands in their hair matched their red and white wines nicely.

Annaliese White and Justine Foley were all smiles in their haute couture togas. Bob and Trish Henry chose the minimalist approach at the neighbourhood toga party.

Warm welcome as hatches open The past year has been difficult for many families, and it’s been particularly challenging for those welcoming a new little member to the fold.

For the team at Dubbo Photo News – and we know for all our readers as well – the “hatches” are a favourite inclusion each week, so we’ve missed being able to celebrate and share all the little bundles of joy.

Restrictions have meant we’ve not been able to do our usual “rounds” and so there are a few precious “Covid kids” whose arrivals we’ve not been able to include in our pages until now, but we’re keen to get those “hatches” open, so to speak!

If you’d like to share your happy news, we’d love to hear from you!

A BIG warm welcome to all the new babes and a hearty congratulations to all the mums, dads, grandparents and extended families.

…and a call for bubs’ beanies And while we’re on the subject of “warm”, Dubbo Base Hospital’s maternity unit is on the hunt for donations of beanies for newborn babes, specifically those born by Caesarean section.

Because of Covid-19 restrictions,

the unit’s regular knitting groups haven’t been able to get together, so the stash of beanies for bubs has run dry.

The beanies need to be of a tight knit – not lacey – in order to keep those precious little heads warm and ideally, they would fit a head circumference of 33-38cm.

Acrylic or polyester wool is best because the beanies are placed in a 70-degree warmer to make sure they’re safe and sanitised.

Can you help?

If so, you can drop the beanies at the hospital’s reception and advise they’re for the maternity unit – don’t forget to leave your contact details so they can say “thank you”!

It’s a

COMPLETE EACH GRID WITH NUMBERS FROM 1 TO 6, KEEPING IN MIND THAT: - a number can only appear once per row - a number can only appear once per column - a number can only appear once in each box of 6 squares

MEGA MAZE

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE

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.

THE DUBBO BURROW THERE was a great deal of grand final fervour across the lock-downed city on Grand Final weekend and this Rabbitoh's burrow on Whylandra Street captured the eye of one of Dubbo Photo News' photographers.

Alas, for these Bunnies fans a premiership wasn't to be, with South Sydney going down in a nail-biting thriller to the Penrith Panthers.

Ultimate Frisbee back on the field

“Rabbits, rabbits, rabbits...”

By GEOFF MANN

LAST week’s piece on St John’s JRL stalwarts Ronny Sheridan, Tony Kelly and Mick Wilson drew plenty of comments from our readers.

While all agreed the three old CYMS men would have been happy to see Matt Burton and Isaah Yeo flying the club’s colours, they were just as adamant “Sherro would have been ful-

ly decked out in his myrtle and crimson guernsey with his Rabbitohs hat bemoaning the referee who “was crucifying my boys”!

The last known photo of Sherro, who died suddenly late last month was him in his beloved Rabbitohs cap.

Mick Wilson would have had the contented smile of a Panther as great nephew Isaah held the Provan-Summons Trophy above his head

but his old CYMS front row partner “TC”, they tell me, had his bottom lip hanging down – “Dez and the Sea Eagles wuz robbed in the finals”!

The two Dubbo rugby league products are expected back in town once the Greater Sydney lockdown is lifted. Both are spending time relaxing after their amazing premiership-winning season!

The eye of the Panther

By JOHN RYAN WHEN it comes to Penrith Panthers’ supporters out Wellington way, they don’t come much more committed than Adam Ryan.

While Adam is best known in local rugby league circles for his tireless work with the Wellington Cowboys, he also spends much of his time savouring the recent successes of his favourite NRL club.

He’s had a good couple of weeks, with a win in a Panther’s jersey raffle to go with the thrilling grand final win.

“Orange United Football Club has been running raffles all year to fundraise for the 2022 season

and using signed footy jumpers to do so,” Mr Ryan told Dubbo Photo News.

“I’ve been watching and waiting for the mighty Panthers one to come up and what a day it did – on Sunday, October 3 – grand final day.”

There were only 25 tickets available, and he bought five, choosing the birthdays of each of his family members as the selected numbers.

“The lucky number to come out was 10 which happens to be my birth date, December 10, so I knew it was going to be the start of a good day which only got better with the Mountain Men winning the NRL grand final later that day,” he said.

“I previously had a signed one

which I paid $600 for at a fundraiser for a good mate but I later donated that jersey to another friend in need to auction off as a fundraiser because they’d lost most of their belongings in a house fire.

“I've followed the Panthers for as long as I remember. The first ever NRL game I went to was the Panthers versus Balmain Tigers at Penrith.

From that day I've seen them win all three of their premierships: 1991, 2003 and 2021 with more to come.”

Panther’s supporters don’t come any more committed than Wellington’s Adam Ryan, who went to great lengths to win this Panther’s jersey in a raffle. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

By GEOFF MANN DESPITE the pandemic that cut short the winter competition, Dubbo Ultimate Frisbee enthusiasts are keen to get back to doing what they love.

A post on the club’s Facebook page has brought smiles to players’ faces.

“October disc: under 70 per cent roadmap rules, up to 30 vaccinated people can gather *informally* outdoors. This is a great opportunity for teams to get together to have a throw and run before the comp can officially kick off on 1 November when 80 per cent are double vaxxed.

While we cannot officially run anything in October, no other sport can either, so the oval is not officially booked so there should be plenty of space for a run on South Dubbo Oval!”

Check out the FB page for contact details.

Curious about what’s happening, always reading the news, enjoy writing, want to help tell people’s stories...

If this sounds like you, then read on.

Dubbo Photo News will soon have an opportunity for an all-rounder who would like to get a foot in the door to the world of media.

This maternity leave position will commence in December.

You’ll be based at our front desk, helping answer enquiries from our readers and advertisers. Working alongside our journalists, you’ll also have the opportunity to start learning about news gathering, including researching, interviewing, writing and photographing your own stories that will be published in our newspaper.

This position would be ideal for a gap year student who is about to finish Year 12, but others with strong writing and English skills, enthusiasm, a willingness to learn and good social skills are also welcome to apply.

Send your application and resume to: jobs@dubbophotonews.com.au, along with some samples to show us your writing style.

By GEOFF MANN IT is always pleasing to read of the blossoming careers of our young sportspeople.

Two year ago I filed a story on Zarrin Galea after he had led the Dubbo Kangaroos Colts to a stunning comefrom-behind win over the unbeaten Bathurst Bulldogs in the Central West Grand Final.

The year before he had been on the bench in the Dubbo CYMS Under 18s team led by Matt Burton. Charlie Staines and the Forbes Magpies ate Fishies for dinner in that Group XI decider.

This weekend the talented

back runs out for Malta, the country of his grandparents Joseph and Mary (pictured).

Helen Suckling contacted us at Photo News with an update on Zarrin’s impressive sporting deeds since moving to Brisbane.

Helen says Zarrin started playing football with the Narromine Jets when he was six and continued to play both league and union with Narromine High School.

His form in his early teens saw him selected in the Western Academy team and from there he was picked to represent NSW as part of the Young Achievers on a tour of New.

“Zarrin was only 14 when the Young Achievers played the curtain raiser for an Australian Prime Minister’s XIII match against the Kumuls (PNG National team),” Helen wrote.

“He finished his high school at Dubbo College where he played in the famous Astley Cup. He was also in the Western Rams team that played in the final of the Andrew Johns’ Shield but unfortunately took a hit in the first five minutes of match and had to leave the field.”

In 2018 Zarrin played with Dubbo Cyms Juniors then in 2019 Zarrin decided to play

The kid with neat hands, fast feet and a good kicking game was offered a contract to play with the Redcliffe Dolphins in 2020 and remains with the club that will enter the NRL in 2023.

NRL and Super League stars including Michael Vella, Ben Galea and Danny Galea, Jake Mamo, Shane Shackleton, Jarrod Sammut, Jon Magrin, Tyler Cassel, Luke Branighan and Lachlan Chandler have all honoured their ancestral home since the country’s first international in 2004.

Zarrin’s dad Joey and his parents will be tuning in when the rising star runs out for Malta for the tournament that kicks off in Turkey this weekend.
