HAPPY NEW YEAR! OUT WITH THE OLD
IN WITH THE NEW
CHEERS, 2021, it’s been... well, it’s been. As the sun sets on 2021 and we look forward to a new year of hope and promise (fingers crossed!) in 2022, the team here at Dubbo Photo News would like to take this opportunity to wish you all health and happiness as we bid farewell to what has been a trying 12 months. Like any other year, 2021 has been
different for everyone – there have been triumphs and tragedies, births and deaths, highs and lows, happiness and heartbreak, good times and not so good times. But unlike most years (with the exception of its predecessor), 2021 has had an extra layer of uncertainty and turmoil beset by the ongoing scourge of a shape-shifting global pandemic.
For those who have celebrated significant milestones or achievements, or additions or successes or who have triumphed over adversity, we say congratulations and may 2022 build on those foundations. For those who have suffered loss and hardship in any of its many forms, we extend to you our care and hope for a smoother time ahead, and wish for you to find com-
fort in the hope a new year brings. To you all, we say thank you for your ongoing support for our locally-owned, independent newspaper – we can’t do what we do without you. Be careful on the roads, safe on and in the water, considerate in your community, gentle on yourself and, most of all, kind to each other. Happy New Year! PHOTO: ERINNREDFERN_PHOTOGRAPHY

December 30, 2021-January 5, 2022 Dubbo Photo News
New mayor and deputy elected THE first meeting of the newlook Dubbo Regional Council went ahead last Thursday, after the NSW Electoral Commissioner ruled against a recount for the Wellington Ward. As at press time last week, the Commissioner was considering a recount request in light of the 31vote margin between the second and third-placed candidates in that ward. But by last Thursday morning the recount had been ruled out. “The Electoral Commissioner has reviewed the request for the recount (and) was not satisfied that a recount should be conducted on the grounds provided in the request, and the results were approved for declaration,” a spokesperson told Dubbo Photo News. The 10 newly elected councillors were subsequently welcomed Thursday morning, December 23. An extraordinary meeting elected Mathew Dickerson as mayor and Richard Ivey as deputy mayor.

Major distribution centre to bring jobs and business opportunity By STEPH ALLEN A NEW multi-million-dollar Inland Rail material distribution centre proposed for Narromine is expected to bring 7500 jobs to the state and produce $3.4 billion over construction and its first 50 years of operation. The Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) proposed the town for the construction of the project, due to its “prominence and locality” along the Inland Rail alignment. The facility will service the future installation of ballast, sleepers, rail and turnouts along the 1700km Inland Rail alignment. ARTC Inland Rail interim Chief Executive Rebecca Pickering said Narromine would be the staging point for the largest greenfield section of the project between Narromine and Narrabri. “It is hoped that the development of the facility will generate opportunities for jobs and suppliers of goods and services in the area,” she said. “In addition to storing materials, we would also set up site offices which will generate long-lasting employment opportunities.” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said the proposed centre was already providing “enormous benefits” to communities along the Narrabri to North Star section of the project.

“Now it’s Narromine’s turn to reap the rewards,” he said. “This distribution centre will create a boom for the local economy, providing opportunities for local people and businesses to be involved in this once-in-a-generation project. “Once complete, the Melbourne to Brisbane line will provide connection to a network of roads and rail that can increase the resilience of local supply chains and enhance capacity for regional
businesses to access new markets for generations to come.” ARTC will carry out environmental investigations of an area just outside the Narromine township to provide a comprehensive understanding of the cultural heritage, air quality, noise, vibration impacts and flooding risks. Ms Pickering said an Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Assessment would also be carried out, and people or organisations (with cultural knowledge relevant to de-

Pending the outcome of the Review of Environmental Factors and further planning, work will commence later next year. ARTC will work closely with Narromine Shire Council and will update the community as plans progress. Planning and investigations into the proposed development are currently underway.

Western health service prioritises testing
SPECTACULAR SUNSETS
Dramatic skies and spectacular sunsets have been a common sight across the western region as 2021 draws to a close, and if you get the feeling the last two months have been wetter than normal, you’re correct. While the long term average rainfall readings at Dubbo airport are 60.7mm for November
and 63.4mm for December, we had 180.8mm last month and 73.4mm for the current month up until yesterday. This late afternoon scene – complete with swirling clouds – was captured by Dubbo Photo News photographer Mel Pocknall at the harness racing meet in Dubbo on Boxing Day.
Localised school tests help bridge Indigenous gap By STEPH ALLEN NAPLAN organisers are closing the urban-rural gap in Dubbo by doing away with obscure references in test questions and introducing more culturally relevant and familiar content. The new and improved testing methods were introduced to more than 1100 students from 20 schools across Dubbo this year as part of a randomised control trial. During the trial, half the test papers were changed to replace unfamiliar references with local objects
and images familiar to local students. One example included a reading prompt that changed a reference from a lighthouse to “The Dish” at Parkes. Other prompts included substituting caring for a guinea pig to caring for a dog, a story about getting lost was based in the Wellington Caves, and in a numeracy test, half an avocado was replaced by half a chicken, and a treasure map was replaced with Aboriginal tools. The adjustments are expected to help improve
test outcomes amongst Indigenous students, reduce the urban-rural gap by a third and close the Indigenous reading gap by 50 per cent. Researchers from the University of NSW’s economics of education knowledge hub said the adjusted test could increase reading scores for year five Indigenous children by nearly 25 NAPLAN points, lifting them above the national minimum standard from band four to five. NSW Education Minister Sarah Mitchell told the Sydney Morning Herald
(SMH) the findings were “incredibly powerful for our Indigenous and culturally diverse students”. A study involving the NSW Department of Education and the Aboriginal Education Consultative Group, tested Years 6 and 8 students, with half receiving the original NAPLAN test and the other half receiving the amended, localised versions. Ngunnawal man Warren Richardson was involved in contextualising the questions on behalf of the Aboriginal Education Consultative Group. “I remember never be-
ing able to see myself within the questions, that’s what was driving me and my team to get these questions right,” he told the SMH. “For me, if you don’t understand the question, you’re not going to be able to answer it. “We’ve worked a lot in camps – STEM and language and culture camps. These give kids access to STEM through a cultural lens. “We could see the difference (in the students’ understanding), but we never had evidence. This is pure evidence.”
NSW recorded 11,201 new COVID-19 cases in the 24 hours to 8pm Tuesday, with 73 of those new cases identified in the Western NSW Local Health District. As at yesterday morning there were 206 active cases in the Dubbo Regional Council area which includes Wellington, 13 in the Narromine Shire, six in Gilgandra Shire, and 78 in the Mid-Western Regional LGA. With a high demand for tests, officials in the Western NSW Local Health District decided this week to strictly prioritise testing at its facilities. “Due to the high demand for COVID-19 testing and the subsequent stress on NSW Health Pathology laboratories, testing will be strictly prioritised at all Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) facilities,” a spokesperson said on Tuesday. “This does not apply to testing clinics operated in the District by external providers.” The specific groups that are now being given priority for PCR testing at WNSWLHD facilities, including all Hospitals and Multi-Purpose (MPS) facilities in the District, are: Public Hospital and MPS inpatients; Healthcare workers; and other emerging priority groups, such as aged-care facilities, as determined by the WNSWLHD Public Health Unit. “People showing active symptoms for COVID-19 are also treated as a priority,” the spokesperson said. “Those identified as close contacts of a confirmed case of COVID-19 will be processed after those priority groups, and we urge patience should they be required to wait after presenting for testing. “COVID-19 testing for travel is not advised at any WNSWLHD facilities as, due to high processing demand, results are unlikely to be available within 72 hours. Any COVID-19 testing for travel will be only be considered if capacity allows. “Please note, this does not apply to clinics operated by external providers and turnaround time at those providers’ clinics are also subject to demand.”

WELLBEING BOOKLET HELPING STUDENTS WITH LIFELONG SKILLS By STEPH ALLEN

AS mental health struggles continue to escalate throughout schools, one Dubbo student support officer is taking a stand and helping students develop lifelong skills of mental wellness. After witnessing the impacts of mental health issues first-hand, student support officer Emily Nettle decided to introduce an interactive wellness book for Delroy Campus students. “I knew we had to start focusing on a message of mental wellness, rather than mental illness,” Miss Nettle said. “Building resilience first meant identifying key strengths within our
students. “Using the interactive booklet has allowed us to redirect our students’ focus towards the positive supports they already have established in their lives, whether they be at home, at school, or within themselves.” The Wellbeing booklet was completed by students in class, during Positive Behaviour for Learning lessons. It provides teachers, support staff and fellow students with tools for instigating discussion around the topic of mental health. Student Support Officer, Esther Behsman, said the booklets have allowed students to highlight the positives in life, and develop tools of strength to draw on.
Violence is region’s biggest worry By BROOKE JACOBSON
A COVID-influenced drop in property crime has been welcomed by local police but the pandemic has also been a factor in rising assault rates. Orana Mid-Western Police District Commander, Superintendent Dan Sullivan, spoke to Dubbo Photo News after the release of the latest Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOSCAR) records. “The BOSCAR stats look at a five-year, and a two-year trend,” Supt Sullivan said. “Across the five-year trend, property crime is down significantly across the Orana region and the Far West; it’s down by 10 per cent, which is a solid result. “If you look at Coonamble, break and enter there was down by 26.4 per cent and in Dubbo, it was down by 16.5 per cent. “Malicious damage – such as graffiti – was down and you could say that was influenced by people not being out and out. “In the Warrumbungles (Local Government Area), break and enter was down by 31.4 per cent. “The challenging conversation we need to have is that violence against people is up by 4.1 per cent.” Supt Sullivan said the Orana and western region had always been “over-represented” when it came to domestic and family violence. “The one that concerns me is crimes against people, specifical-

ly family and domestic violence,” he said. “In Narromine, we’ve seen a 200 per cent increase in assault. “This region is over-represented per head of population in terms of domestic and family violence. “We need to examine ourselves as a community, and look at our attitudes towards violence, particularly violence against women. “There is still a lot of victim blaming – people ask “Why didn’t she leave?” rather than ask “Why is he being violent? “We need to reframe our thinking around this as a community. “It’s low key casual sexism, or sexism disguised as a joke, that leads to violence against women. It’s a slippery slope.” Supt Sullivan added the perception of crime levels compared to the actual levels of crime were quite different. “That’s why we’re posting on the Orana Mid-Western Police District Facebook page every day – this is what police are doing, these are the calls we’re responding to and most of the time, it’s domestic and family violence,” he said. “I moved here in June from Lake Macquarie and my car insurance premium dropped significantly – these types of things are based on crime levels. “Of course, one crime is a crime too many, and police here will never rest on our laurels, we are working together with the community every day.”
Across NSW, BOSCAR recorded 57 murder victims in the year to September 2021 – the lowest number since BOSCAR records started in 1990. BOSCAR executive director, Jackie Fitzgerald, said there had been a “significant long-term downward trend” in murder. “The highest number of murders recorded in a year was 126 in the year to September 1999, since then reports have declined steadily to the current low,” she said. “Crime fell noticeably during the three-month COVID lockdown but it is hard to say whether the recent low murder count was influenced by the COVID response or not. “This is an infrequent offence and the numbers do fluctuate. “What is clear is that murder in NSW has become less common over the past decades.” Property offending also dropped sharply during the 2020 lockdown and was still noticeably lower than pre-pandemic levels in June 2021. In line with the second lockdown, property crime again fell sharply and the level of property crime in NSW was currently at the lowest level on record. In the 24 months to September 2021 none of the 13 major crime categories were trending upwards, eight were trending downwards and the remaining five were stable. The offences trending downwards across the state were:

Focus on getting harvest done IT’S been a busy season for Dubbo region grain growers who are still working towards reaping crops heading into the new year. After wet weather earlier on in the season, harvesting was delayed, but now efforts are ramping up heading into the second half of the 2021/2022 season. GrainCorp corporate affairs manager Jess Simmons said while receivals were slower to come through this year compared to last year, the Dubbo-based branch was still expecting more grain through the gates in January. “GrainCorp’s sites in this area, which include Coonamble, Gilgandra, Gular, Armatree, Narromine, Nevertire, Nyngan, Peak Hill, Tottenham, Trangie and Mungeribar, have collectively received over 1.3 million tonnes since October 2021,” Ms Simmons said. “In terms of labour, we were able to recruit relatively well in NSW but we were not immune to the country’s labour shortages, plus the flooding earlier this year held up the usual internal movements of staff and site equipment to help manage the harvest. “There’s definitely some good soil moisture around the region so we expect this to come in handy next year, but for now we’re focused on getting this year’s harvest done and dusted and supporting growers through what has been a challenging season,” she said.

Cyber safety concerns prompt mental health warning By TIJANA BIRDJAN WITH the constant growth and transformation of social media and internet practices, mental health advocates are encouraging awareness of cyber safety in order to maintain healthy online experiences. Headspace Dubbo Community Engagement Officer and Program Support, Taylor Ryan, said research found that one in two young people had been cyber-bullied at some time in their life. The research, conducted through the headspace National Youth Mental Health Foundation, has found that one in three young people have experienced someone spreading a rumour or posting mean comments about them. “Bullying in general is associated with an increased risk of experiencing anxiety, depression and self-harming behaviours,” Mr Ryan said. “The effects of bullying can last for a long period of time and we find that young people often report that one of the worst parts of bullying in general is feeling like they’re going through it alone. “That is why it’s so important for anyone going through a tough time, to reach out to someone they trust for support.” Mr Ryan said young people will continue to interact online and
are changing how they do so. “We strongly encourage young people, their parents and carers to get informed, start a conversation and take steps to make their experiences online safer,” he said. In January 2021, the NSW government released an updated policy statement regarding student use of digital devices and online services. Students are expected to use
their devices in a responsible and respectful manner and advise their peers to do the same. Mr Ryan advised parents and carers to take young people seriously when discussing issues about cyber safety and online experiences. “Listen to their concerns and support them to take action,” he said. “This might involve report-
ing the incident to the platform, collecting evidence, seeking additional support from the eSafety Commissioner, involving the school or workplace, regularly checking in, supporting some screen free time, and helping them to do things in life that support their wellbeing.” Young people are encouraged to be safe when using online digital platforms.
Rural banking closures putting small businesses at risk AN industry ombudsman has called for more banking support for rural and regional small businesses as more branches close their doors across the country. The Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise has submitted a plea to the Regional Banking Taskforce, citing that branch closures were disruptive to small and family businesses. Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman Bruce Billon said these businesses relied on banking services to operate in today’s economy. “Branch closures increase small business administrative costs, the level of risk for business owners, and have a community wide economic impact caused by business patronage moving away, along with reduced community amenity, particularly if it is the last remaining bank in town,” Mr Billon said. “The loss of a local bank branch may even cause (some small businesses) to look for services outside the regulated financial system.” Mr Billon said his office would welcome working with the Australian Banking Association to amend the code of practice and ensure affected customers could transition to another bank without any cost penalties. “We have also asked the taskforce to consider expanding programs such as the Regional Tech Hub to help rural and regional small businesses to secure state banking services.”

Local authors have the write stuff for holiday reading
EMERGENCY REPORT
By TIJANA BIRDJAN
Children found: A good news story to end 2021
DUBBO’S leading independent bookstore, The Book Connection, has given Dubbo Photo News the inside story on the most popular books for this year’s holiday period. The store has an array of genres to choose from. Store Manager Rae Craft said The Book Connection has an advanced selection of established and emerging local authors. “There’s a great author from Bathurst, Ralph Cover, with his newest release Who the Hell is Ralphy?, which shares his anecdotes of life experience,” Ms Craft said. “It’s an interesting book recalling history set in a rural background.” Delving into Australian novels, Kim Kelly has expanded her collection with the addition of The Truth and Addy Loest, released in February 2021. “Kelly Rimmer is another best-selling author raised in rural NSW with books like The Warsaw Orphan and Truths I Never Told You,” she said. For students preparing for secondary school, Ms Craft recommends the Percy Jackson series, the Harry Potter series and Ahn Do’s collections. “My favourite book that I have

read recently is The School Teacher of Saint-Michel by Sarah Steele which provides an excellent look into a French school teacher in the post war world,” Ms Craft said. Senior sales associate Beverly Fearne also shared her curated summer reads. Mrs Fearne said My Adventurous Life, by Dick Smith, is a captivating Australian story as he shares his journey about staying true to yourself. “This book is for anyone who enjoys reading inspiring stories and biographies,” Mrs Fearne said.
New York Times best-selling author Diana Gabaldon returns with her newest release in the Outlander series Go Tell the Bees that I am Gone. The fiction novel focuses on two characters being torn apart by the Jacobite Rising in 1743 and reuniting once again after 20 years. The American Revolution
threatens them to repeat their personal history and potentially lose each other once again. “I highly recommend this book for lovers of fantasy romance,” Mrs Fearne said. “We have a lot of picture books in stock to keep the children entertained during their summer break.”
THERE was a collective sigh of relief on Tuesday as news broke that two children who had gone missing near Mudgee were found safe and sound. Just after 5.45pm on Monday, December 27, emergency services were called to White Cedars Road at Kains Flat – about 35km northeast of Mudgee – following reports two children were missing. Police were told a 14-year-old boy and his 12-year-old sister had left for a walk at about 2.30pm but not returned. “A large multi-agency response was commenced, with assistance from specialist officers from Police Rescue, PolAir and the Dog and Mounted Unit,” police said. Following an extensive search, the two children were located by the police force helicopter ‘PolAir’ in bushland about midday on Tuesday (pictured above). The family was relieved and grateful. “Our family would like to give our deepest thanks to emergency services and volunteers for assisting in the safe recovery of our children,” they said.

Mixed feelings over $12.5M bridge works
Region sees big economic boost in 2021: RDA By TIJANA BIRDJAN
The hundred-year-old Rawsonville Bridge will soon make way for a new river crossing. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS
By STEPH ALLEN FLOODING, safety concerns and poor conditions have put an expiry date on the Rawsonville Bridge, with a $12.5 million replacement scheduled for the Macquarie River infrastructure. However, despite the controversy surrounding the project, with some residents citing the significance of the “historic” bridge, many locals are pleased to see the new beginning of construction. Local cattle and grain farmer Jim Rose said while it was a “bit of a pity” to lose the old bridge, which was built in 1916, the narrowness and poor conditions
had left it a safety concern for residents. “Flooding is a part of it. It does get flooded north of the bridge – there’s a couple of hollows there,” Mr Rose said. “You can get cut off (during flooding). The main issue is safety – there are no turning lanes from Narromine Road and I think they are going to put them in too. They’ll have to. “If you’re coming in from Dubbo, you have to turn right when going over the bridge and sometimes you have to stop dead in the middle of the road, whereas if there’s a turning lane, you can get safely around.
“There’s a lot of traffic that goes to Dubbo from Narromine... it’s narrow, dangerous and some people don’t stop and give way.” Mr Rose said due to the width of the road, he has had to make accommodations to get his machinery over it, often moving some machinery over the bridge sideways or modifying equipment to fit. “(Another farmer’s) son does a lot of contracting and couldn’t get a header across it without taking it apart,” Mr Rose said. “They have to continually duck shuffle machinery (across the bridge).” While work has not begun on
the bridge, workers were spotted taking down trees near the bridge earlier this month. The new bridge, which will be funded by the NSW Government, was approved for replacement after extensive research, investigation and consultation as part of a Review of Environmental Factors for the proposal. Works will include a new bridge around five metres upstream of the existing bridge, construction of new roads to connect the bridge to the existing road network, the removal of existing roads on either side of the existing bridge, and the removal of the existing bridge.
Terrabella Bridge upgrade resumes after Covid delays WORK has resumed at Terrabella Bridge south of Dubbo, which involves replacing the existing timber bridge with a concrete one. The state government pitched in over $3 million for the project, a decision that Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said would ease “the financial
burden” on council, which would otherwise have to cover the cost in full, and ensure the project could be delivered sooner. Terrabella is one of four bridges being replaced across the Dubbo electorate, but work had to be paused as Dubbo Regional Council staff were rede-
ployed to help with the region’s Covid response, Mr Saunders said. “The replacement bridge will be about 2.8 metres higher than the old structure, allowing better vehicle access across the Little River during minor flooding, and ensuring the community is connected.”
Federal Member for Calare Andrew Gee said it was great to see work resuming after it was paused due to Covid-19. “The new bridge will safely connect the community and make it more efficient to move local farm produce around the region,” Mr Gee said. “The
COUNCIL SNAPSHOT
crossing will be safer and stronger and the increased load limit of 68 tonnes will be a huge benefit to farmers transporting grain.” The federal government has contributed $700,000, and Dubbo Regional Council, which is delivering the project, has invested $500,000.
IN 2021, Australian’s have faced significant hardships with the impacts of COVID, drought recovery and continuous lockdowns. With strength and recovery, the Dubbo community has seen expansions, buyouts and welcomed new businesses and workers into the region as well. CEO and director of regional development Megan Dixon said in a Christmas newsletter that after the shutdown, every industry in the region was turned on and, in many cases, turned up as well. “It’s been highly unusual to see every single sector going well and that’s put tremendous pressure on everyone for resources and workers,” Ms Dixon said. “The year has shown not only our region, but I think Australia, the reliance that we have had on migrant workers to ease worker shortage. “During the year, we continued our work on this front, with an Orana Designated Area Migration Agreement variation signed off on by the Minister, and we lodged a new request for additional occupations and concessions,” she said about RDA Orana’s activities during 2021. There have been several projects that have injected economic benefits into the region including the emergency hub at Dubbo Airport, the Renewable Energy Zone impacting the Warrumbungle, Mid-Western Region and Dubbo council areas, the Critical Minerals hub at Toongi, the Inland Rail hub at Narromine, and the appointment of tier one contractors for Narromine to Narrabri leg of Inland Rail. “All of these announcements have been followed by a flurry of commercial activity and new entrants into the region,” Ms Dixon said. “It gives the team great satisfaction to see new jobs being created across the region.”

Dubbo creatives launch latest short film
A screenshot from the locally made short film “5 Days”. PHOTO: STUDIO 138
By TIJANA BIRDJAN LOCAL film-making is alive and well, with the official launch of the short film “5 days” held on December 16. An accompanying music video also premiered on the day at Western Plains Cultural Centre’s Black Box Theatre. In August, Dubbo filmmaker Erifili Davis had a draft for a dystopian short film inspired by the novella “I am Legend” set in a post-apocalyptic horror, and influenced by the modern development of zombies and vampires. What started as a project to keep busy during the 2021 lockdown has resulted in an exclusive Dubbo creative collaborative piece. Originally written for two male and two female actors, Ms Davis decided to rewrite the screenplay for an all-female cast. “Dubbo has an amazing creative community and it’s easy to tap into other creatives as well,” Ms Davis said. “I’ve worked with all the actors on previous projects.” Young actors Milla Ross, Kalina Davis, Georgie Saunders and Kirra Hampson all had various experience locally, both on screen and
in theatre, and were excited to be a part of the project. “We all worked together on a mood board, collaborated on the script and dialogue, and together evolved the look and feel of the film,” Ms Davis said. “Thanks to Kalina, we were also able to get on board amazing local makeup artist Tayla Nicole Brown to do the special effects makeup. Local musician and Whisperhead frontman, Nolan Furnell, composed the song “Paranoia” to accompany the short film and which led to the featured music video. Ms Davis had previously worked with him on her short film “Seeing”, which had received a number of awards and nominations, including for Mr Furnell’s soundtrack. “We were just going to use scenes from the film along with some band footage from the music video,” Mr Furnell said. “From there (the music video) ended up as its own stand-alone project.” Mr Furnell also provided the opportunity for the actors to perform vocals on the song, which was something Milla Ross, Kali-
na Davis and Georgie Saunders could not refuse. The group initially rehearsed via Google Meet, but as soon as lockdown was over in October, they recorded the song and had filmed both the short film and music video by the end of that month. “The project was very collaborative, and everyone worked really well together,” Ms Davis said. “The premier was a celebration of both the cast and crew and how hard everyone worked during the time.” Ms Davis and cinematographer Marcello Davis made the decision to shoot the film and music video on an iPhone 8-plus with the potential of submitting it both a mobile phone film festival and a horror film festival. “There were some limitations, but the key strength is that it is freeing not having a lot of gear and having the ability to move quickly,” Ms Davis said. Ms Davis said the film took two days to film and 20 hours to edit with the help of a visual effect artist. The 12-minute film was mainly shot at Studio 138 and the music
video was shot at the historic Rabaul Store building at the RAAF base in Dubbo. “We are so grateful to John Grey and the Maas Properties team who made that possible,” said Ms Davis. “John in particular was so accommodating, giving up his Sunday to let us in.” The dystopian horror film features a group of young women living in a world overrun by monsters, who must put aside their differences and work together for the hope of survival. “The cast and crew were really excited to see the final product and hopefully it inspires them to do their own projects on day,” Ms Davis said. “I really hope to encourage emerging creatives to try new things and I’m sure we’ll see a flurry of projects from them in the near future. “They’re able to learn from one another and take their experiences into their next projects.” Ms Davis has been a Dubbo resident since 2005 and supports the Dubbo creative community by providing opportunities and growth for emerging artists.
Dubbo mum gets life-changing $2.9m Lotto win
A DUBBO mum received an extra special Christmas surprise this month – a whopping $2.9 million Saturday Lotto win. After purchasing a division one entry in draw 4217 from News at the Mall at Orana Mall Marketplace, the lucky Lotto winner was pleasantly surprised last week to learn she had one of two winning entries. After the December 18 draw, it was revealed that each winning ticket was worth $2,942,875.50. The lucky Lotto winner is planning to use her winnings for a brand new pool for her children and to help set them up for the future. When she received the news from an official from The Lott, she burst into cheers and tears. “I just popped into the newsagency today to get some last-minute Christmas presents and while I was out, I thought I’d check my tickets,” she said. “I’m feeling shell shocked. Honestly, I am trying to take this in. I just want to scream and cry because I’m so happy. “The last few years have been terrible. They’ve been draining in so many ways. This prize changes absolutely everything for me,” the winner, who preferred to remain anonymous, said.

Region on alert with fire season predicted to be worse than 2020 By STEPH ALLEN PROPERTY owners have been urged to keep an eye on their paddocks, gutters and vacant blocks after a number of grass fires recently sprung up around the Dubbo area. NSW Rural Fire Service’s Orana Team operational officer Level Three, Peter Fothergill, said while the recent wet weather had moistened grass around the region and normal fire activity had been absent thus far this bushfire season, there was still a risk for spontaneous ignition. “(Locals must) keep on top of the grass. With all these storms we get, the grass is growing pretty well but we can’t be too complacent with green grass... it won’t take long with hot weather for it to cure,” he said. “There’s been a few little fires. Luckily, we didn’t have too many with the harvest this year, but it isn’t over yet – there’s a possibility of more with thunderstorms and lightning strikes. “We had a small couple of fires in the forest, north of Dubbo (on New Year’s 2020), but due to the drought conditions at that time, it helped us because there was nothing to burn.
Local fire crews conducted hazard reduction burns in the lead-up to summer. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS
“If something like that were to happen this year, the potential for it to spread into open grazing country would be a lot higher than 2020. “The real risk is the western area of NSW; due to higher grass growth and the amount of time it takes for green grass to cure.” Earlier this month, four classrooms and a staff room were destroyed in a fire at Dubbo South Public School. Over the bushfire danger
period, which runs from October 1 to March 31, residents are advised to keep grass short around their home, clean out gutters, clean up leaf debris and twigs on rooves that can catch alight, and to remove firewood that has been stacked up from winter. Those living in rural areas should also check all their pumps, caps and hoses and ensure pressure pumps are serviced for potential
firefighting. “Talk over your fire safety plan with your family and do a run through, especially for people with horses and livestock,” Mr Fothergill said. “Make sure you have a plan to keep them safe. “We’re predicting some more fire activity (in January and February).” A large air tanker is currently situated at the airport – ready to go if any fire were to break out in the state.

If the shoe fits, put your best foot forward By JEN COWLEY Martha Munn has learned there's a science to finding the right fit for a sporting shoe. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS
AS a full-time retail assistant, or “fit technician” at The Athlete’s Foot in Dubbo, Martha Munn has learned more than she could ever have dreamed possible about feet and sporting shoes. It turns out there’s a lot more to the job than simply selling shoes – Martha explains that it’s not just a case of people choosing athletic or sporting shoes for the pure aesthetics, although that does factor into the equation. “I’ve learned a lot about shoes and feet,” says Martha. “I’ve actually learned quite a bit about my own feet that I didn’t know. For instance, I didn’t realise that my feet roll when I walk. “There’s a real science to it,” she says pointing to a state-of-the-art piece of in-store equipment that takes a 3D image of a customer’s feet and films the individual foot movements that help personalise the fitting. “I now know all this information about, for instance, where your arches are sitting and if you

need support because they’re low or cushioning if they’re high – all that sort of thing that helps us understand a customer’s unique foot and what they need in a shoe.” Martha enjoys helping people and has found great satisfaction in being able to guide a customer through the process of finding exactly the right shoe and fit for their needs, although she quietly confesses people don’t always want to heed the advice given. “Most customers will take what you advise them on board, but occasionally you’ll strike someone who just wants what they want regardless of what we have found during the fitting about the best type of shoe for them. “In a case like that, all you can do is offer your guidance and all the information you can, but in the end it’s their choice,” she shrugs. “Most people are genuinely interested in the fitting, particularly when they see the image the machine takes of their foot and they realise how that can help inform us about the best type of shoe for them.”

An opportunity exists to join one of Australia’s largest privately owned progressive agribusinesses in a casual capacity to help assist with the grain harvest season.

For more information contact 02 6801 3100
Getting the right fit is vital, Martha says, particularly when it comes to a shoe that you’ll be wearing for physical activity like walking, running or training. “For instance, most of the time, people’s feet are both different sizes, so you can have different arch heights, and the machine will show us exactly whether the person’s feet needs support or cushioning, or whether they roll their feet in or out and that can also determine which kind of shoe is best.” Martha even shows us shoes that have “guide rails” to ensure the wearer’s ankles stay straight. We’ve come a long way since the old Dunlop Volleys days, it seems. Martha herself is spoiled for choice when it comes to her own footwear. She admits she’s a creature of habit but that there are many different styles and brands she’d still like to try out, although she’s so busy helping other people choose their shoes she doesn’t have time to test drive. One thing’s for certain, this bubbly young salesperson always puts her best foot forward.

Making memories all in a day’s work By JEN COWLEY THEY say curiosity killed the cat, but for jeweller Stuart Gould it delivered a career in an industry he loves, doing what he enjoys. As the owner of Kings Hall Jewellers for the past three years, Stuart now holds the reins of a long-established family business that has a firm place in Dubbo’s heart. It’s a responsibility he takes seriously. Having worked with previous owner Craig Carolan for more than a decade, Stuart learned at the elbow of the master and learned not only the trade, but the importance of the work of a jeweller in making and preserving people’s memories. “Curiosity was what got me into the industry. My mother used to collect brooches, and she’d come in here regularly to see if what she’d found at a garage sale, for instance, was something of value. I was attached to her hip and I used to tag along. I began to wonder what it would be like to be a jeweller,” he smiles. As to what his day to day work involves, Stuart explains he’s not just a jeweller or a business owner – he’s both. “There’s the front of house as well as the designing and repairs, and there are different specialties within the trade – engraving,

stone setting, gemmology, metallurgy – they’re technically separate trades, but you really need to be across them all.” Asked if he has a favourite piece or job he’s worked on over the years, he admits he’s had some pieces of which he’s proud, but that it’s hard to single out a particular favourite. What makes that so is that it’s not always about the monetary value of a piece. “Sometimes even the cheapest item can have the greatest senti-

mental value,” he explains, pointing out the enormous responsibility that comes with being entrusted with people’s special memories. “Even a piece of costume jewellery that’s only worth a couple of dollars can be very precious to the person who owns it. You have to be very, very careful with those things because you’re holding someone’s memories.” Stuart is quick to nominate platinum as his favourite of the precious metals to work with.
LOVE YOUR WORK
“It’s difficult to work with because it’s such dense metal and it takes a lot of technique to get it shiny, but once you get it there, it’s worth it.” And gems? Does he have a favourite? Again he answers without hesitation: “The Australian sapphire would have to be up there. I love the different colours it can have. Australia has some beautiful gems – the Argyle diamond, the Kimberley diamond... we have a fair

few of the world’s most beautiful gems.” Over the years, Stuart has seen a number of different trends come and go and tastes change. “In the ‘90s, you had those heavier gold pieces, but as gold became more expensive you saw a shift away from yellow gold towards to the finer, more delicate pieces. “You do have certain styles that are timeless – like a traditional solitaire, which is always in style – and there are certain styles that are huge for a while then quickly go out of fashion. “These days, there’s a tendency towards more delicate, quite fine jewellery – you see it in engagement rings, for instance, they’re fine and quite high set.” When you’ve been in the trade a long time, it’s easy to spot a style that is simply not going to have longevity, says Stuart, adding that it’s important to have a line in the sand. “That’s because you do see your pieces that you’ve made 20 or 25 years ago coming back – so you want to see them last the test of time. “When you make something and you see a look of happiness on a customer’s face, that’s very rewarding. “I guess we’re in the business of making memories – that’s the nicest part.”

3200 blood donors needed now AUSTRALIAN Red Cross Lifeblood is calling on at least 3200 Australians – especially those with O+, O-, A+ and A- blood types – to roll up their sleeves and give blood before Monday – 1000 of those donors are needed in NSW. The head of Lifeblood’s donor centre network, Cath Stone, said this year’s holiday season had been like no other as the number of appointments not being attended reached record highs. “Donor numbers have plummeted due to a perfect storm of people waiting on COVID-19 test results or quarantining, many being away with the reopening of borders, and donors wanting to spend more time with family and friends. “More than half of all appointments are not being attended, which means we need more donors to roll up their sleeves and take the place of those who can’t donate,” Cath said. She said it was critically important that people donate blood between now and the new year, with donor centres open every day. Donors needed nationally by blood type: O+ 1500, O- 650, A+ 1100, A- 250.

By JOHN RYAN ALTHOUGH Tanya Hillery was taking advantage of the pre-Christmas rush to pick up some good buys while visiting Dubbo, it was anything but a shopping holiday. Dubbo Photo News caught up
with her as she was climbing back into her 600-horsepower, longnosed Kenworth prime mover which was pulled up in the dedicated truck-parking bays behind Dubbo Square. “I’m based in Toowoomba but I brought a load of cattle down
and I’m loading cattle back up to Condamine. “I needed a dress and so we parked the truck up to get some stuff.” Tanya began driving trucks years ago because she wanted to provide her children with the best
education she possibly could. “I wanted to give them something I never had access to and set them up with a foundation,” she said. “With driving trucks, you can put the long hours in to get ahead and now I love the job.”

Snake bites strike as temps rise: Do you know what to do? HEADS up, Dubbo – or heads down, as the case may be! As the mercury rises, so does the number of snakes that are out and about around and in our fair city, and we’re being reminded to keep a sharp eye out. With the warmer weather and the unusually wet and humid conditions comes a potential surge in the number of venomous snakes on the move, and St John Ambulance is urging people to know what to do in the case of a snake, or venomous spider, bite. Firstly, time is critical, so if you or someone with you is bitten, it should be treated as a medical emergency so first aid is vital. Know the signs and symptoms and what to do. Here in Dubbo, there has been a number of reports of snakes – brown and black – being out and about, particularly on our many walking tracks and near the river, but also in people’s backyards, since the weather started warming up and since the arrival of humid conditions. If you’re headed for or near the coast for the holidays, you should also be aware of the increased threat of venomous spiders such as the Sydney funnel web, which is a particularly nasty little critter whose venom can be fatal in just 15 minutes, so again, it’s worth knowing what to do. More than half of deaths caused by snake bites in Australia occur in the home, and with continued wet weather conditions forcing snakes and spiders out of their natural habitat in search of drier areas, it’s expected we’ll see an increase in their activities in our houses and yards. The snake that’s widely considered the most dangerous to Aussies is the eastern brown, which is responsible for more deaths than any other snake, and which is among those we regularly find out here in our region of the state. If you’re bitten, the first thing you should do is call 000, but you should also know what first aid to render because sometimes help can be further away than you’d like. Ultimately, says St John Ambulance, you want to stop the venom from travelling, which means while you’re waiting for the ambos,

you should keep the patient still and lying flat, and wrap the site of the bite with a bandage. Then apply a pressure bandage – starting from the fingers or toes and wrapping upwards as far as you can go. If you’re heading off to enjoy a coastal holiday, it’s worth knowing the symptoms of a funnel web bite – these include breathing difficulty, excess saliva, muscular twitching, numbness around the mouth, disorientation and confusion leading to unconsciousness. Making sure you have access to a first aid kit that includes a “what to do guide” and items including a pressure bandage is a smart thing to pack in the holiday kit, particularly if you’re going camping or bushwalking or spending any time outdoors. And don’t forget to check your shoes before putting them on. If you do come across a snake either while you’re out and about, or even in your own home, remember that they don’t want to be around you any more than you want to be around them.
First aid: Would YOU know what to do? 1. Follow DRSABCD (Danger, Response, Send for Help, Airway, Breathing, CPR, Defibrillation) 2. Call triple zero (000) for an ambulance 3. Lie the patient down and keep them still 4. If on a limb, apply an elasticised roller bandage (10-15cm wide) over the bite site as soon as possible 5. Apply a further elasticised roller bandage, starting just above the fingers or toes and moving upwards on the bitten limb as far as can be reached Use clothing or other material if an elasticised roller bandage is not available
6. 7. 8.
9.
Apply the bandage as firmly as possible to the limb. You should be unable to easily slide a finger between the bandage and the skin. Immobilise the bandaged limb using splints Keep the patient lying down and completely still Write down the time of the bite and when the bandage was applied. If possible, mark the location of the bite site (if known) on the skin with a pen, or photograph the site. Do not wash venom off the skin or clothes because it may assist identification. Stay with the patient until medical aid arrives

Most people are bitten when they try to kill or catch a snake – and remember, ALL native snakes are protected in NSW – so if you can, just leave it alone and let it move off by itself, but keep an eye on it from a safe distance. If you’re at home, make sure you keep your pets away – the snake will usually move off by itself, but if you’re concerned (and that’s understandable) contact a licensed snake handler to have it removed. If the snake is in your house, close the door to that room and place a towel under the door to stop it from moving to another room while you call for back-up from a professional. Bottom line? Be aware, be careful and brush up on your first aid skills.
Doggos and “danger noodles”: What to do if your pet is bitten NOW that it’s warm and snakes are more active in and around Dubbo and the region, pet owners need to be extra vigilant to keep their doggies and moggies safe from bites, and to know what to do if their “fur baby” is bitten. Because dogs will often try to chase and kill snakes, they’re usually bitten on the face and/ or legs, and cats – being hunters and chasers – are also quite susceptible. How your pet reacts to a snake bite depends on a number of things: the kind of snake, the amount of venom it injects when it bites, and where on the animal the bite site is. As a rule, the closer the bite to the heart, the more danger your pet is in because the venom
If you need help removing a snake, call someone like Kyle Lundholm Outwest Snake Catcher, who is a licensed professional. PHOTO: SUPPLIED
spreads more quickly to the rest of the body. Here in Dubbo, a bite from a brown snake is the most commonly fatal for pets, although tiger snakes also account for deaths and its venom is more toxic. Both the tiger and the brown have a toxin in their venom that causes paralysis and there’s also a particular agent in that venom that stops your pet’s blood from clotting. If you have pets, it’s best to know the signs of snake bite: z Sudden weakness followed by collapse z Shaking or twitching of the muscles and difficulty blinking z Vomiting z Loss of bladder and bowel control z Dilated pupils z Paralysis z Blood in the urine. If you think your pet has been
bitten, try to keep them calm and quiet (that goes for you too!) and take them to a vet immediately. The chances of recovery are much greater if your pet is treated early, with some pets making a recovery within 48 hours. If you’re a while away from a vet, and you can practically do so, try to apply a pressure bandage – a firm bandage over and around the bite site – to help slow the venom spreading to the heart. Do NOT wash the wound or apply a tourniquet. If you can identify the snake, tell your vet what type it is – but don’t try to catch or kill the snake. If it’s dead, take it with you, otherwise there is a blood or urine test that can tell if your pet has been bitten at all, and if so, by what type of snake. Snake bite treatment for pets is quite expensive, so the best cure is prevention. SOURCE: RSPCA

OPINION & ANALYSIS
WINNERS & LOSERS: Has Greg Smart
` The only solidarity and support was at a grassroots level. People looked out for other people... a
❚ OPINION THE year 2020 was marked by disruption. The COVID-19 pandemic wrought havoc on society. Home and work life was turned upside down by the need to isolate, and the necessary work of essential workers came into focus. COVID case numbers rose and fell. Most tried to make the best of it and what could be called the ‘new’ normal. Given the disruption of 2020, how would humanity move forward in 2021? Looking at where we are now, it did not. The year started with an attempted coup in the self-proclaimed home of modern democracy. Not willing to accept the results of the American election, Trump and his Republican Party hatched a detailed plan to illegally hold onto power. That a sitting president and his cronies should even contemplate subverting an election result should still be ringing alarm bells. Worse, Capitol Hill was overrun by a mob intent on killing the Vice President. This mob of “patriots”, high on social media conspiracy and low on critical thinking, was incited by Trump. Nearly 12 months on, the rioters continue to be charged and punished. Justice is closing in on Trump and his lieutenants. The Republican Party has given up any semblance of tolerance and forbearance of political foes. The country is heaving under a massive COVID death toll, a large section of the population rejects the science that has impacted their “freedom” and media outlets continue with highly charged anti-government rhetoric that stokes misinformation and division. This anti-vaccination conspiracy nonsense then came to Australian streets. Stoked by the dark corners of social media and the empty minds of Clive Palmer and federal politician Craig Kelly, coalitions of anti-vax/anti-mask/neo-Nazi nutters risked spreading COVID and derailing health measures
designed to keep the community safe. Prime Minister Morrison, ever the free speech warrior, actively avoided any condemnation of these fringe elements and their potential harm to society. Without a single thought given to thousands of medical staff dealing with the severely ill and dying, this fringe
element dismissed the pandemic as an assault on their “freedom”, choosing to be wilfully ignorant and harmful. These fringe elements have always existed, but the coupling of social media with a mainstream media determined to give non-factual alternative arguments an airing, causing unnecessary fractur-
ing of society, and highlighting a leadership vacuum in this country. As our national leader, the Prime Minister should have been vocal in his condemnation of the lunatic fringe, embrace medical advice, and secured vaccination supplies as early as possible. Morrison failed on all counts, clearly out of his depth. He wanted the job but not the work. In April he told the Australian Christian Conference he was called to do God’s work as Prime Minister. He admitted to putting his hands on bushfire survivors without their knowledge and praying for them. These are not the admissions of a person with a grip on reality and is the opposite of the leadership required to respond to COVID. With gritted teeth and pompous manner, Morrison and his government announced Job Keeper and Job Seeker programs in 2020, to support Australian workers and businesses. The implementation of the programs was widely criticised, and the lack of oversight staggering. Billions of dollars went to large businesses and corpora-
tions that did not meet the criteria. In 2021 Treasurer Josh Frydenberg dismissed the potential recovery of the overpaid billions as class warfare against business. And although the Constitution dictates the federal government be responsible for quarantine, we have no purpose-built quarantine facilities, only a tender to private enterprise for expressions of interest. The COVID response was just one of the federal government’s self-inflicted wounds. It and Morrison appeared to be on the wrong side of every issue. Revelations of sexual assault and cover up in a culture of excessing drinking, bullying and sexual harassment brought the house of our leaders into disrepute. A toxic mix of male bravado, hubris, and power, combined with no code of conduct and no accountability. Once again Morrison attempted to downplay the facts. The non-appearance of a federal integrity body, despite an election promise, gives the appearance of something to hide. This is supported by the litany of grants rorting, “commercial in confidence” contracts awarded without tender, LNP acolytes appointed to plumb positions, and undisclosed party donations. Morrison downplayed these issues too. Towards the end of 2021 when a female LNP member – Bridget Archer – crossed the floor to try to bring on the debate regarding a federal ICAC bill, we were once again given a lesson on how Morrison and Co. bully and intimidate female colleagues under the guise of “pastoral care”. Obsessed with public image, Morrison and Co. expend more energy on deflecting tricky questions, than leading the country. Morrison wants us to believe that whatever he says is true, even if it’s the opposite of what he said

OPINION & ANALYSIS
2021 taught us anything? last week, last month or last year. He constantly confirms himself as all show/no substance, when he is caught lying about facts, or lying about what he said and when he said it, such as his recent denial of his derision of electric cars in the last election campaign. The government is obsessed with secrecy and hates whistle-blowers. It spent 2021 and 3.7 million taxpayer dollars prosecuting former spy Witness K and his lawyer Bernard Collaery, for revealing Australian spies bugged the cabinet office of Timor-Leste to gain an advantage in deals to access the oil rich Timor Sea. And Julian Assange continues to suffer for his “crime” of revealing the war crimes of the United States and its allies. Underwater defence matters sank to a new low, with Morrison proving he is a diplomacy free zone by bungling the announcement of the AUKUS military alliance with the USA and England, which broke the contract to purchase French submarines. He managed to upset both the French and the Chinese Government to unprecedented levels, possibly irreparably damaging diplomatic ties. Our defence minister Peter Dutton also ramped up tensions with China by threatening military action to keep our trade routes with them open. Yes, that happened, and reveals his tenuous grip on reality. Division and the National Party went hand in hand last year, with another leadership spill initiated by Barnaby Joyce for his benefit. In a quirk of the Coalition, the number of people who voted for the National Party (excluding the Queensland Liberal National Party) was less than the informal vote in the 2019 election. With the fossil fuel-loving Queensland LNP, the Nationals rode roughshod over our country’s climate action and emission reduction policies, all the way to the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow. Australia was an outlier at this world summit, shackled with an unambitious emissions reduction target courtesy of the Nationals’ ransom demands, and a prime

minister sprouting PR inanities like emission reduction “the Australian way”. Thus, our national climate change policy was dictated by a minority party wedded to fossil fuel interests in direct contravention with the needs of their farming constituency. Farmers who need recompense for carbon sequestration and are fully aware of the need for emissions reduction and renewable energy. Farmers had enough to worry about in 2021 with an endless mouse plague, no backpacker labour and a prospective bumper grain harvest downgraded by persistent rainfall. Behind the lockdowns, we experienced a quickly evolving economy that altered our style of living, picking winners and losers. People who were underemployed or in casual jobs lost. People in full time employment who could work from home were the
winners. Cheap credit and the ability to work remotely drove a nationwide housing price boom. No travel meant households spent on consumer items and home improvements. Trades people are overwhelmed with months of
backlog just to get quotes. Transport networks are stretched to breaking, and fuel prices continue to rise making parcel deliveries slow. Overseas goods have become nigh on impossible to get. And house prices keep going up.
It had all the signs of a twospeed economy. The federal government boasted of a rapid post-COVID economic bounce back, which was of course false. The “bounce back” was driven by an over inflated housing market and historically low interest rates, masking stagnant wage growth, and increasing inflation. If you already had capital, you were okay, if not you face a life of renting. Gross federal government debt sped towards $1trillion, two thirds of which was incurred before the COVID-19 pandemic. Tertiary education was defunded to increase military spending. The effects on the economy of a lack of manufacturing enterprises is obvious in a world where overseas shipping is restricted. There was little to unify us in 2021. Federal and state leaders politicised COVID-19, openly hostile to each other with state border closures along political lines. The mainstream media ramped up this hostility with the Murdoch press openly undermining Labor premiers. It was a shameless situation. The only solidarity and support was at a grassroots level. People looked out for other people. Although the economy is important, it should serve us, not the other way around. Coalition governments appear to have decided the economy will take precedence over the impending wave of the COVID Omicron variant. We need to be on our guard against both this virus variant (and the next one) and this freedom mindset. If COVID forces a change to how we look after ourselves and the planet, so be it. This may be the only way for humanity to move forward. z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

Friendship group brings dementia carers together
&
Thumbs Up to Ross and the girls at Pet Medical Centre for their continued quality/friendly service and care shown to all pets – and my dog. A special big thanks to Ross who attended to my dog on Boxing Day.
&
DEMENTIA counsellors, Anne Gemmell and Jeanie Cronk were busy in the lead up to Christmas, baking treats for carers who attended the Friendship Group morning tea held at the Western Plains Cultural Centre (WPCC). Anne and Jeanie enjoyed being busy in the kitchen so carers and the person they care for could receive a lovely homemade Christmas pack. The Friendship Group is held monthly at the WPCC in Dubbo for carers to bring their partner along and enjoy morning tea at the WPCC. This is an
Thumbs Up to the staff working in the Covid testing centre at Dubbo showground. Being in PPE gear all day, no air conditioning, getting a meagre wage, but still being pleasant and helpful to those having to get a test – a huge Thumbs Up and thanks to you all.
&
Thumbs Up. I cannot find the words that can show my appreciation to the lady in the Roosters footy T-shirt at Coles supermarket on Wednesday, December 15, who so generously paid for my weekly groceries. I will honour her kindness by donating to a worthy charity, and will not forget her selflessness and calming attitude. Thank you.

The Dementia Counselling Service continues to provide support, advice and counselling over the often long and challenging journey of dementia. If you or someone you know may benefit from the service please get in contact with Jeanie or Anne on 68813704 or alternatively email agemmell@chcs.com.au or jcronk@chcs. com.au

Thumbs Up to central KFC, the service I received was well mannered and the food was hot and fresh.
&
Thumbs Up to all the medical staff and doctors, in particular Leslie, at the Dubbo Care Family Practice for their outstanding service.
&
Thumbs Up to the fellow sorting and cleaning the book section at Vinnies last Friday. He went out of his way to find a book my husband was after and was a very friendly man, we’ve never seen the book section looking so tidy. Good job young man.
& Thumbs Up to the people reducing mosquito numbers by emptying

unwanted containers of water.
&
Thumbs Up (a big, big Thumbs Up) to the paramedics at the ambulance station for being so caring and understanding while helping me with my medical concerns.
&
Thumbs Up to the lovely lady who helped me after I locked my keys in my car. Your offer of water and to drive me home – 30km out of town! – was just amazing. You turned a terrible day into an amazing one. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Also thumbs up to NRMA who did get my keys out, for being so prompt and helpful.
&
Thumbs Up to the young lad with the green helmet riding his bike on Wednesday, December 22, near central KFC. He did the right thing and got off his bike at the lights and walked it across the marked street crossings when the lights were green, being very responsible and walking his bike when he saw a woman with a baby so he didn’t crash into her on the sidewalk. Good to see kids still being safe on the streets.

Rotary wheels turning towards new year THE Rotary Club of Dubbo Macquarie was long on fellowship and short on formality when its members and friends gathered at the home of President Susie Rowley to mark the end of a challenging 12 months and raise a glass to the com-
ing year – one they’re hoping will see a return to more traditional service to the community. Much of the club’s activity in 2021 was conducted by Zoom, with Covid-19 having savaged the usual fundraising and community outreach events.

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.

NSW Indoor Rowing champions By GEOFF MANN THEY say necessity is the mother of invention and so it proved for two of our Dragon Boaters.

tum going,” Rhonda said. The two enthusiasts entered the NSW Indoor Rowing Championships in August/September and placed in events there, so then they set their sights on the Australian Championships which was held on October 30. “It was just to ‘have a go’ really,” Rhonda added. “Both the NSW and Australian Championships were held ‘virtually’ for the first time which meant our rowing machines were linked up via Zoom for the competition,
from the comfort of home!” Great way to keep fit and stay dry. “Although we can’t wait to join our crew back in the boat. We’re planning to paddle in the Chinese New Year Regatta on Darling Harbour next month. We hope the damn virus is under control by then so we can celebrate by doing what we love.” For the record, Andy was awarded bronze in the Men’s 500m; Rhonda, gold in the Women’s 1000m and bronze in the 559m.
MiniRoos opens registrations for All-Girls teams By STEPH ALLEN ALL-GIRLS MiniRoos teams will bound into the winter season following Dubbo and District Football Association’s decision to open registrations for 2022. The Executive Committee of Dubbo & District Football Association decided at their December meeting to actively pursue registrations for AllGirls football teams following player demand from MiniRoos participants. Some clubs have already submitted All-Girls teams to play against boys or mixed teams each week. The teams will start with the Under-5s, Under-6s, and Under-7s age groups. Games will be played on Saturdays, following current MiniRoos matches, with kickoff times to be determined after nominations are received. Association president and former Newcastle Football operations co-ordinator Ainsleigh Bates said she had witnessed
the ‘build it and they will come’ concept first-hand. Narromine Soccer Club is looking forward to the new groupings. “We have strong interest in submitting an Under-7s AllGirls team for the 2022 season, we had to split our girls between two [mixed Under-6s] teams this year, it will be great to be able to join them back together and have them play against girls only for the season,” secretary manager Jim Auld said. “Early action will determine the probability of ensuring these groups can go ahead – even if we have to merge age groups.” Those interested in All-Girls groupings should speak to their club and enquire if they are submitting a team for the 2022 season. Online registrations will commence early January through the PlayFootball portal. For further information contact Jim Auld on dubbosoccerass@bigpond.com, or visit www.dubbofootball.com.au.

Gerard’s classmate and cousin Nic Wilson represented the Yeo family who had gathered in Mudgee for Christmas. The night brought to an end another challenging year for Dubbo Harness Rac-

NOVEMBER and December 2021 are months Sophie Simpson will never forget. She became the first female player from the Dubbo Squash Club to claim a NSW CHS title. Sophie showed her mettle in a furious fiveset final, coming from two sets down to win. Sophie was one of only two squash players nationally to be awarded a Commonwealth Games Scholarship which will help offset some of the travel costs and purchase of equipment. The young athlete from Geurie inherited her love of the small racquet game and the little rubber ball from her parents and has spent many years on the courts or in the vicinity. The Dubbo College Year 10 student was also the number one seed in the girls Western CHS Squash team that won the NSW Combined High School championships in

Coffs Harbour. Sophie was runner up in the individual event and was rewarded with selection in the NSW CHS team. Her only loss during the tournament was against Australia’s top ranked Under-17 player Maggie Goodman. Squash in Dubbo does not attract the same numbers as the 1960s to ‘90s when there were more than 20 courts and
nightly comps, but with Sophie’s success and the Senior College achievement there is real hopes of a revival. Sadly our players only have two courts at the RSL on which to train and play these days. Junior and Senior Championships are held in the much smaller towns of Narromine and Parkes which both boast multiple courts.

Sophie’s state title has old “squashies” recalling young champions of the past like Perry Daly, Paul Bushell and Tracey Ibbotson. To cap off a tremendous year, Sophie was awarded the Jeff Murray Memorial Trophy by the Dubbo Squash Club.
Congratulations Sophie, a champion in every sense.

By GEOFF MANN JUST before Christmas I had the honour of saying farewell to an old friend, Tom Nelson. Hundreds gathered at St Brigid's to remember the man who had coached junior league, CYMS Juniors as well as Group 11, Western Division and Country representative teams. Tom also coached the Fishies first grade team on four separate occasions, including the 1974 grand final. Anyone who’s been involved in rugby league since Tom and Marcia arrived in Dubbo in 1963 would have their own story of a much loved mentor and friend. Whether you were a player who was offered an encouraging word or a star who needed a rocket to stir you up, Tommy’s words were always received as they were meant – with your best interests at heart. Images were shown on the big screen of Tom with clipboard, focussed, looking for “the one per centers” that took a player from a club footballer to a representative. He saw with an eye that not many had and was able to get so many to be the best they could be with encouragement, wisdom and fine people management skills. Testimonials from rugby league coaches like Ken Arthurson, Craig Bellamy, Laurie Daley and Brian Smith and players like Ricky Walford and David “Cement” Gillespie captured the enormous respect in which Tom was held across the spectrum. Tom was renowned as a team player and earned every accolade. It may only be a six letter word but one that is essential for life and in football. Tom Nelson earned re-
spect for his energy, enthusiasm, attention to detail and genuine care for those with whom he came in contact. Group XI referees, Country and NSW officials and reps of clubs from right across the state joined with Marcia, Ann, Steve, Jane, Martin and their families to celebrate and show their appreciation. One feature of Tom’s 60 years of participation and generosity was that he travelled all over the state as he coached, selected and supported Country rugby league. He was almost invariably accompanied by his best friend Marcia and, more often than not, one or more of their children. Tom saw the best; his astute eye selected the best and his proud eye watched as these young bush kids blossomed into NRL superstars. Although he is mostly associated with CYMS, Tom was actually signed by Macquarie who met him at the railway station when he arrived to take up a promotion in the Goods Shed. Although he moved to the
Greens three years later, great friendship and rivalries continued with Blues like Chicka Pearce, Max Low, Jim Kelly, Noel Sing, Ross McDermott and others. Indeed, local derbies inevitably ended with Macquarie drinking green beer and eating fish fingers at the Castlereagh or CYMS drinking blueys at the Royal while downing meat pies depending on the result! Perhaps Tom’s proudest club achievement came when his Juniors set the scene for a Group XI Premierships “Greenwash” in 1971. Norm Bach’s Reserve Grade won a controversial decider against arch rivals Macquarie while the legendary red-haired maestro Ken McMullen led the firsts to their second title in three years. This was an especially sweet victory for Tom as “Macca” had chased him to coach the club’s juniors. Ken saw it as the “most important position in the club” as the Under-18s coach set the tone and established the future. Tom was highly regarded as an administrator, a foundation member of Dubbo Junior Rugby League, St John’s JRL and the overarching Dubbo Rugby League that was formed to attract and coordinate NRL teams to the city. Tom served as Country and State selector, manager, referees appointments board member and on the Executive Committee overseeing the growth of the sport in the bush. Amongst his many honours were Life Memberships of Dubbo Junior Rugby League, St John’s, CYMS, Group 11, Western Division and Country. The Tom Nelson Shield was inaugurated for supremacy in Coun-
try Under-18s and just two weeks ago, the Tom Nelson Medal for player of the Year went to CYMS and Western Division captain Brae Porter. I remember Tom as a Philosopher: “Fair go for everyone – you pay your money, you train hard, you deserve the opportunity to shine”; “team is the most important”; “do it for your mates”; “the harder you practice the better you get”; “move up together”. He is remembered as an Innovator – Group XI Grand Final Breakfasts; Grand Finals at Cobar and Manildra; the establishment of a pathway for young players in tandem with Jim Jones and the Penrith club, 20 years ahead of the now well-established “Western Panthers” nursery that produced premiership winners Isaah Yeo, Matt Burton, Brent Naden and Charlie Staines. As a coach Tom’s strengths were as a strategist, a tactician who was meticulous in preparation and detail. As an administrator he was able to negotiate many delicate situations. Tom told me on a number of occasions that coaching a league team was a lot about managing people as well as passing on skills. “You’re a social worker and relationships manager. Many of these young fellows are transitioning from boys to men and their onfield performances are affected by what’s happening at school, work and with their families,” he said. Tom was very proud of the young players who he had under his tutelage at CYMS and rep teams. Martin Meredith, Steve Merritt, Brian Wilson, Col Parkes, David “Nana” Grant, Jim See, Brett Patterson, George Trudgett, Nic Kosef, Ber-
nard Wilson, Justin Yeo, Andrew Ryan and Mark Soden are some of the dozens who have forged memorable careers. When CYMS won the first local derby grand final in 1975, there were at least eight of “Tom’s” juniors in John McDonnell’s premiership-winning team. David Gillespie, Jimmy See and former CYMS coach Tim Ryan were in the congregation. Tom Nelson built his life on four Fs – friendship, family, football and faith. Now we add another – farewell.
Tom Nelson’s record z Western Suburbs Presidents Cup 1960/61, Third grade 61/2; RydeEastwood 63/64 (inaugural year). z Dubbo Macquarie – 63-65.
