Class of 2035?

BIG SCHOOL FOR LITTLE PEOPLE

By JEN COWLEY THERE’LL be tears, fears and trepidation... and that’s just from the parents.

From this coming week, little folk all over the city and our region will be walking through the gates of “big school” for the first time, and onto an educational path that will lead them who knows where along the journey to adulthood.

Dubbo Photo News was lucky enough to meet some of the representatives of what one mum described as “our future in cute little hats and shiny little shoes” as they

embark on their educational journey towards perhaps eventually becoming part of the Class of 2035.

Charlotte Damen is super excited. She doesn’t know why, she just is, she shrugs but then her eyes light up.

“I have lots of friends going to big school.

“I want to do colouring-in first thing on the first day – I’m good at colouring in.

“The monkey bars too.”

She holds out the sides of her new school uniform, and sways from side to side.

“She just loves it,” her mum says.

“She’s wanted to wear every day since we bought it!”

Looking resplendent in her spotless new uniform, pristine bucket hat and shiny new shoes, her hair in impeccable plaits, Constance Gannon is equally proud of her new kit and eager for her first day.

“I’m looking forward to playing with my cousin Zara – and guess what? It’s her birthday today and I’m going to her party!”

Asked what she’s most looking forward to about “big school”, the pint size chatterbox takes time to consider her answer.

“Well...,” she says, taking a big

breath.

“I want to play with my friends, and my new friends.

“I love all my uniform, every part of it. And I like my new backpack – it’s got sparkles!

“And I got to meet my teachers on orientation day,” she gushes, naming them all.

Constance (“You can call me Connie or Con if you want!”) says she’s is a bit nervous but excited.

“I’m a bit scared. I haven’t been to big school before and I don’t know what’s going to happen, I mean, I’ve been here before to pick up my cousin but I’m a bit scared about making

new friends but I’m happy and lucky because I already have some friends, but I’m a bit scared...yeah...,” she says, finally pausing for a breath.

And how’s Mum, given this is her first and only “first day”?

“Oh, she’s ready!” Mum laughs. “I’ll miss her, but I know she’s going to have so much fun.”

Today’s cover photo shows Bella Hartsuyker, Harli Putland, Constance Gannon, Jax Filmer and Charlotte Damen who are embarking on their educational journey at Dubbo Public School.

Narromine BreastScreen van visit

Results give top students a reason to celebrate

“IF you grow ‘em, you should know ‘em!” It’s the catchcry of advocates for the early detection of breast cancer everywhere, and there’s never been a better time than now to get the check that could save your life.

If you live in or around Narromine, this could be your lucky day to book a date with the BreastScreen NSW mobile screening van which is set to visit your town from Thursday, February 3, to Saturday, February 12.

Eligible women aged between 50-74 can get a FREE mammogram, and with around 90 per cent of women who are diagnosed with breast cancer having no family history, screening is one of the most important things they can do for their health.

The van will be located at the Council Carpark, 124 Dandaloo Street. It’s free and you don’t need a referral.

It’s equipped with a lift system to support women with health conditions or disability to have their mammogram, and screening will be done in a Covid-safe manner. To book a mammogram with BreastScreen NSW, call 13 20 50 or visit book.breastscreen.nsw.gov.au.

AFTER a year of online learning, lockdowns, academic stress and anxiety, recently graduated year 12 students can finally relax after receiving their HSC results.

The past school year has been a year of new challenges and innovation for Dubbo’s HSC students but results indicate incredible achievement despite the difficult year.

The Central West (North) public school HSC merit list illustrates three top achievers for 2021: Joe Lukkett from Dubbo School of Distance Education for his construction examination and Luke Dunkley and John Liddell from Western Institute Dubbo for automotive examination and electrotechnology.

There were also 26 distinguished achievers of 2021 with 16 students from Dubbo College Senior Campus (DCSC).

Senior Campus principal Marisha Blanco said the school’s leadership team was thrilled with the results, with an increase of band six results from the previous year.

“This year’s HSC results were an incredible achievement under normal circumstances, so we are elated that despite two challenging years, student resilience, grit and determination has been rewarded,” Ms Blanco said.

The college boasted above average state results in a diverse range of courses indicating strength across various curriculum areas.

“The year’s results are a testament to the unrelenting commitment and drive to the exem-

her HSC. Mackenzie studied mathematic advanced, English standard, chemistry, business studies, personal development, health and physical education and visual arts.

“Mrs Nelson, Mr Braithwaite and Ms Blanco have been fabulous in their support for me over the past two years and my Strive mentor, Mrs Damen, was great,” Mackenzie said.

Mackenzie shared that through her year of online learning, she showed up to every class, proving that consistency is key.

She has been relentless in her pursuit for excellence, according to Ms Blanco.

“Her greatest strength has been her engagement with all our specialised programs, from regular tutoring with her teachers, Strive mentoring and Strive programs to maximising the skills of the exemplary teachers,” Ms Blanco said.

“Her disciplined and sustained application, throughout two very difficult years, has been outstanding.”

Ms Blanco is looking forward Dubbo College Senior Campus 2021 Dux Mackenzie McCarthy-Rooke. to hearing how the students from PHOTO: SUPPLIED Dubbo College Senior Campus plary teachers, support staff and ebrated, providing a pathway for will make a positive impact as incredible families of Dubbo Col- every student’s future is ultimate- they pursue their futures. lege,” Ms Blanco said, explaining ly important, she continued by Mackenzie now plans to have the seamless transition to remote stating many students have been a gap year working in the hospilearning, out-of-hours tutoring, offered apprenticeships, further tality industry in Dubbo and will holiday coaching and extended education and direct employment take up a placement at the Uniclasses that teachers have focused opportunities. versity of Newcastle in 2023 to Dubbo College Senior Campus study a Bachelor of Nutrition and on providing significant wellbe2021 Dux, Mackenzie McCar- Dietetics (Honours) and hopes to ing support for students.

Australia Day recognitions in Dubbo THROUGH Australia Day celebrations, Dubbo Regional Council has recognised the importance of Dubbo residents whose contributions have cemented growth and positive impact within the community.

Awarded the 2022 Citizen of the Year, Matt Hansen founded an organisation that has bettered the lives and opportunities for thousands of people in Central Western NSW. Throughout the decade, Matt has raised a significant amount of money for the Dubbo community and region and has made a substantial impact on the health of inland rivers and waterways.

He has significantly enhanced recreational fishing opportunities and established positive social benefits for people residing in Dubbo and surrounding regional communities, initiating volunteer recreational fishing group Inland Waterways Rejuvenation Association (IWRA), a group of likeminded fishers who have staged high profile fundraising initiatives.

The group has hosted the notfor-profit Lake Burrendong Fish-

to create better opportunities for native Murray Cod, Yellowbelly and endangered Trout Cod, and is also the co-founder of the River Repair Bus “work for the dole” project that has been working to restore large stretches of the Macquarie River for the past four years.

The IWRA group contributed $60,000 to purchase a bus and a heavy river repair trailer.

The group alone has planted 7000 native trees and removed more than 300 trailer loads of rubbish from the banks of the Macquarie River in the Wellington, Dubbo and Narromine districts.

ing Classic fundraiser for nine years, engaging more than 15,000 anglers since 2010.

This event has successfully raised hundreds of thousands of dollars which has been put towards improving river health in Dubbo and across NSW.

Through his passion to reignite the waterways and inland rivers, Matt also organised the release of native Murray Cod and Yellowbelly into the region’s waterways for restocking.

He has actively campaigned to open fish passages in the region

AWARDED the 2022 Cultural Person of the Year, Fred Randell is the current president of the volunteer group Songwriters and Original Musicians Association of Dubbo (SOMAD).

ONLY established in 2018, local business Perfectly Sorted has been a growing success for the regional community, winning the 2021 Business Awards delivered

by Business NSW. Founder Ali Broinowski and her team have assisted hundreds of families in relocating, organising and adding style into their homes.

Ms Broinowski was awarded as an outstanding business leader in the regional area as well as recently receiving the women’s regional rural and remote diversity scholarship and said she is very excited about the scholarship as she gets to use her previous experience and knowledge to overcome new challenges and learn more about leadership.

The scholarship is funded by the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) with support from Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet’s Office for Women.

The program will provide opportunities for women from different backgrounds who face additional barriers to education and leadership participation.

“Hopefully once completing the course I am able to undertake more directorship positions in regional areas,” Ms Broinowski, adding that she would like to participate in not-for-profits and pursue executive positions.

“I heard a few other women received scholarships for the course so I’m looking forward to learning through other women and their diverse experiences.

“I heard lots of good things from my colleagues who undertook the course, so I’m very excited to see what this opportunity presents me.”

Tongan community singing for survival

By TIJANA BIRDJAN THE Hunga Tonga-Hunga-Ha’apai has been restless over the course of the past month, preparing for the largest volcanic eruption in the past 30 years.

The tsunami from the eruption caused initial immense damage to the main island, Tongatapu and surrounding islands, but when the explosive waves flooded the islands, a trail of ashes followed – ruining and contaminating all sources of food and water.

With minimal food and water supplies, Tongan residents also have had a lack of internet network to contact their families, including those here in Dubbo.

Originally from Tonga, Josh Sinisa arrived in Dubbo in 2013 to work and send money over to his father and sister who still reside in Tonga.

“When I heard the news, it was devastating as I knew I couldn’t do anything – being so far away from home,” Josh says.

With his family becoming victims to the aftermath of a volcanic eruption followed by a tsunami, Josh shared he is concerned for their safety as they reside on the seashore of the main island.

Last week, the Tongan community in Dubbo collectively gathered to share a prayer and sing in commemorating oved ones back home.

“For us it’s just about getting together and sharing time with one another. We all understand that we’re going through the same thing so we want to support each other in the ways that we can,” he says.

“We’re all finding it very difficult because we haven’t heard from our families.

“There isn’t much we can do for our people back home, except sharing a prayer and singing.”

He says communal singing and praying is their form of grieving and can commence the initial healing process, explaining to Dubbo Photo News the difficulty of living on the island.

“There is not much there for us”, he says, pointing out that the residents live off the land and out of the seas.

With very limited access to money in Tonga, Josh explains it is very important for workers in Dubbo to send money to assist their family’s lives and provide a better living environment.

“If you run out of sugar or bread, you go to the neighbour and ask for a cup or a small amount of whatever you need,” he says.

With ash blanketing crops and water sources, the nation suffers from food shortages and humanitarian supply.

“People don’t realise the severity of it. Tonga relies on rainwater and their water tanks – which now they cannot use due to contamination,” he says.

Thos piloting relief planes were reluctant to fly to Tonga when the disaster initiated due to ash on runways, however there now have been flights carrying aid supplies.

“With minimal machinery to clean the ash off runways, Tongans need to work together,” Josh explains “It’s all done by human power with brooms and buckets.”

With the tragedy of what Tonga has experienced over the past few days and what it will continue to experience while the island is rebuilding into civilisation, Josh says it “hits the strings when it’s your home that ruined and it makes you think a lot.”

Red Cross says bushfire funds helped thousands

MOST of the $242 million donated to the Red Cross to help support those affected by the horrific bushfires of the summer of 2019/20 has now been distributed.

The organisation’s latest report on its bushfire fund showed that $232 million – or 95.5 per cent of the total raised – has been distributed to more than 6000 people affected by the fires, and that “essential administrative support” costs were kept to less than five per cent.

The fire burned more than 18 million hectares, took 34 lives, destroyed thousands of homes and buildings, and killed millions of native animals.

The report said more than 40 per cent of grant recipients applied after June 2020, at least six months after the fires, and 245 people came forward in financial need for the first time more than a year after the fires.

Josh Sinisa is part of the Tongan community here in Dubbo.

Bell rings for COVID-safe return to school

By BROOKE JACOBSON STUDENTS across the region are set to return to school on February 1, with a number of “COVID-smart settings” in place to minimise risk.

NSW Premier, Dominic Perrottet, said supporting students to return safely to the classroom was vital after two years of disruption.

“Students learn best at school, some students have spent a quarter of their schooling at home,” he said during a press conference earlier this week.

“We’re committed to bringing students back safely and new COVID-smart measures will help make this happen.

“What is most important about this approach is that it allows students to enjoy all aspects of their schooling in a safe and sensible way.”

Every student and teacher in NSW government and non-government schools will receive a rapid antigen test (RAT) kit before the start of Term 1.

The state government plan includes: z Twice-a-week rapid testing for primary and high school students, school staff and early childhood staff. Rapid testing will be undertaken for the first four weeks of term, with two weeks of supply distributed before term starts. z Mandatory mask wearing for all staff and high school students, with masks encouraged for children in primary schools. z Limiting interaction between year groups. z Limiting visitors to those providing essential curriculum and wellbeing support. z COVID-safe settings in place for music, sport and excursions. z Maximising natural and mechanical ventilation, with air purifiers dispatched to where they are needed. z Contingency plans in place to manage any disruptions to the workforce.

Families will be notified by their schools on how and when to collect the RAT kits for their children.

NSW education and early learning minister, Sarah Mitchell, said testing complemented other COVID-smart measures in schools.

“We have worked closely with the Victorian Government to create plans that achieve the same important goals of seeing our stu-

dents learning in their classrooms safely and with minimal disruption,” Ms Mitchell said.

“Activities students love, such as music, school sport and assemblies, will continue with settings in place similar to late last year.”

Association of Independent Schools of NSW chief executive, Dr Geoff Newcombe, said all three school sectors had worked closely together to develop the back-to-school arrangements.

“School communities should feel confident about returning for Term 1 under these arrangements, which allow a wide range of activities to proceed with appropriate risk assessment and planning,” Dr Newcombe said.

Catholic Schools NSW chief executive officer, Dallas McInerney, said it was imperative schools were safe and remained open.

“We need to keep our students, teachers and families safe and also provide stability,” he said.

“We know that our kids learn best when they’re in the classroom with their teacher and peers.’’

Ms Mitchell also revealed schools would no longer close once a positive case was identified and contact-tracing would not be completed.

“If you are testing negative that’s great, come to school, but if you happen to get a positive test you need to let your principal

know that you have tested positive to Covid,” Ms Mitchell said.

“You also need to let NSW Health know through the Services NSW app but we will no longer be closing schools when there is a positive Covid case in that community and we will not be conducting contact tracing anymore.

“We are really moving schools in line with what we see in community settings, but parents and carers and family members will be notified if there is Covid in your school community.”

Schools will be required to carry out an improved cleaning regimen.

NSW Chief Health Officer, Dr Kerry Chant, said parents could expect some infections in schools.

“We are calling upon all parents to ensure that any children with symptoms are not sent to school,” Dr Chant said.

“We are likely to see some transmission in schools, but the strategies that have been put in place by Education, in conjunction with Health, are strong.”

Dr Chant urged parents to minimise their children’s activities in the first four weeks of school, such as sleepovers and “other activities that might drive infection” to preserve face-to-face time at schools.

NSW Teacher’s Federation president, Angelo Gavrielatos, was guarded in his support of the government’s return to school strategies.

“There should also be the availability of rapid antigen tests for what we call a ‘test-and-stay regime’ in between the periods or the days on which the surveillance testing is occurring, as reported, on Monday and Wednesday,” he said.

He also said they would have liked to have seen more robust settings around ventilation, air purifiers and mask-wearing.

“This is not the start to the school year anyone wished for,” he said.

“There will be, regrettably, disruption associated with the commencement of the school year.

“We will clearly be monitoring the implementation of those measures and, importantly, the effectiveness of those measures with a view to seeking urgent adjustments and improvements, should they be required, in order to offer the greatest amount of protection available to our students, our staff and their families.”

School leavers strike a blow for shearer shortage DUBBO graduates who are looking for a career in the farming industry have the opportunity to become shearers.

NSW Farmers Wool Committee Chair Helen Carrigan said a shortage of shearers meant there was good money to be made by Dubbo residents who were willing to learn.

“The ‘click’ of the shears is the part of our proud agricultural history and there are so many success stories of young people keen to have a go.

“It can be hard work, but it’s rewarding”, Mrs Carrigan continued, saying Australia has a long tradition of producing the world’s finest wool due to the success of the hard working shearers.

NSW residents are eligible for a free course to receive a Certificate III in shearing as the shortage is severe, and there was never a better time to join the industry.

“We launched our Wool Technical Advisory Group (WoolITAG) last year to tackle the issues in the industry head-on, and one of the big ones has been addressing our shearer shortage,” she explained.

WHAT KIDS SAY

Reflect, Respect, Celebrate: Time to hear all people’s stories

Gamilaraay yinarr (woman) Jenadel Lane is a teacher at Dubbo College Senior Campus who spent most of her life at Walgett.

Here, she shares her thoughts on January 26, Australia Day, with the readers of Dubbo Photo News.

Ivy Doyle Age? 3 Favourite colour? Pink Favourite game? Chasies and building towers with Mummy Who is your best friend? My mum What makes you laugh? My mum What makes you sad? My mum say(ing) that’s not alright What are you afraid of? The dark, I need the light on What is your favourite thing to eat for lunch?

Pizza What is your favourite fruit? Apple What do you want to be when you grow up? A ballerina How old is grown up? I don’t know

••• Can you please tell us a bit about yourself, what you do, your ancestral connections and how the history of Australia Day has impacted you?

I am a Gamilaraay Yinarr Gamilaraay meaning the land in which my people are from, Yinarr meaning woman. My family comes from the Gamilaraay of Walgett, and from the Gomeroi people from Narrabri. Walgett is where I spent the majority of my life. In my language, Walgett is spelt Walgiirr, meaning “place where the two rivers meet”. This place is special because it brings lots of communities together. My family is very rich in culture, we are often out on Country teaching and learning to keep our

culture strong.

I have been a teacher for the past 16 years, and I’ve been teaching at Dubbo College Senior Campus for the past three years. I became a teacher to not only be a role model for my people, but to share knowledge about our people – our stories, our connection, our pride and our strength.

I think of Australia Day as not only a day of celebration, but also a day of commemoration. It’s a day where I think about my grandmother and her family who were not Gamilaraay or Gomeroi, and the hardships that she/they endured to create a home for themselves in Australia.

I also reflect on my Gamilaraay and Gomeroi families who also endured hardships, and who had to also create a place to call home in Australia on a land that was once theirs.

Could you share with us an Indigenous person’s perspective of what happened when the European settlers landed on the shores of this land?

There is one word that comes to mind, and that is change.

Change meant the loss of numerous people, loss of cultur-

al knowledge, loss of identity, loss of belonging. We work really hard as a people now to put ourselves back together, to try to make ourselves whole again. And this can’t happen without the support of others.

What is your personal view on the Australia Day holiday?

As a Gamilaraay Yinarr, I am definitely appreciative of the theme this year (Reflect, Respect, Celebrate). It is time to acknowledge and empathise

with all people and their stories. To many it is Australia Day and to many it is Survival Day. On this day in particular, I remember fond memories of my grandmother. She was not Aboriginal, and we spent lots of time together.

She would take me out on Country, not for culture, but she was one of the many that showed me what the meaning of Country is.

And then I have my mother and father, who are Gamilaraay and Gomeroi, and they cemented that connection to Country by showing me my culture, and deepening and strengthening my connection with Country, giving me my identity and a sense of belonging.

I thank my family and understand the truth about what it was really like to create this country from both perspectives. Australia is a place filled with proud and strong people, and this may be our issue. People often ask me how I feel, and I would have to say sad. Sad that here we are, it’s 2022 and the date is still contentious. Truly, ask yourself why that is.

Fish finger-ling-er-longer

Through the looking glass - NSW Agriculture and Fisheries Minister Dugald Saunders likes the look of these tiny Murray Cod fingerlings because they're bred from local fish. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By JOHN RYAN JUST add water. Lots of it.

As newly-minted Agriculture Minister, whose portfolio includes responsibilities for fisheries, Dugald Saunders helped tip 5000 fingerlings at Dubbo’s main boat ramp on Monday morning. The full and fast-flowing river was a world away from the drought ravaged, cracked and dried riverbeds that were the confronting reality just three years ago when old enemies came together to save an insurance population of Murray Cod. Those fish were rescued by volunteers from Inland Waterways/OzFish, local farmers and irrigators and staff from the Department of Primary Industries, groups that had spent plenty of time at loggerheads with each other in the past. On Monday the last 5000 fish which were bred from that insurance population got to swim free in their traditional country.

“It’s a really nice homecoming.

It’s a beautiful story and it’s a really significant thank-you to all of the people involved not only from DPI Fisheries but also rec fishing groups right across inland waterways of NSW,” Mr Saunders told Dubbo Photo News as he stood in the Macquarie River with shoes and socks off and pants hitched up to his knees.

“Teamwork makes the dream

work and it certainly does in the fisheries’ space – so with DPI Fisheries and also farmers and fishermen and women all up and down our inland waterways, we’ve seen the ability to see record numbers of fingerlings released and this of course comes on the back of record drought in 2019.”

He said that existential crisis had a silver lining in that it brought opposed groups together to collaborate.

“What we saw in 2019 and before that, it was a record drought, no-one had ever really been through that before and we saw people having to work together.

I think we see the best in people when things are going wrong and it brings out resilience, it brings out tenacity and it certainly brings out a common theme which is we need to do more for our native fish.”

Acting senior inland fisheries manager Matthew McLellan drove the last batch of fingerlings to Dubbo, capping off a total of half a million fingerlings from those rescued fish that have been put into inland rivers as part of 1.27 million Murray Cod fingerlings released in the past 12 months, almost double the previous record.

“The help we had from the public was amazing. There were a lot of people who were hurting and upset and understandably so because it was a real tragedy un-

folding but what we were able to bring out of that, by cooperating with the community and getting those local people involved (resulted in) getting a great result for the fish,” Mr McLellan said.

Local fishing advocate Matt Hansen said they were grim days in 2019 when the lower Wambuul/Macquarie’s water, or what was left of it, had turned black and lost the ability to keep fish alive, sparking massive fish deaths across the western region.

He says it’s not just the return of these fingerlings and good seasonal rain that’s making such a positive difference.

MUSIC forYOUNG children 3--7 yRS

“Even in just a short space of time we’ve really got a roll on. We saw $13.5 million in fish screens for irrigation pumps announced which is going to safeguard the population of fish in this river.

“We’ve seen much of the illegal fishing stamped out and we’ve seen a changing of the culture so that catch and release really does play a major part – you don’t see big Murray Cod swinging off clotheslines like you used to.

“Put all that put together, as we stand here now in 2022, shows we’re really starting to get some runs on the board and some projects that we can be proud of.”

Meet Dubbo zoo’s newest arrival

By TIJANA BIRDJAN ONE month after making his public debut alongside his mother Amala, Greater Onehorned Rhino calf Hari has settled into the paddocks at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo in Dubbo.

At only three months of age, keeper Katharina Pollock said Hari has already achieved many milestones.

“He’s very confident and great at meeting new people,” Ms Pollock said, adding that the little rhino is capable of wallowing in mud and play wrestling.

Hari has also progressed into eating some solids with his favourite being fresh branches cut from casuarina and bamboo trees.

Keepers get 20 minutes of individual time to build a relationship with Hari each morning, during which time they feed him mashed banana and give him massages and back scratches.

“He’s very cheeky and he knows it,” Ms Pollock said, adding that he has certain spots on his body that react when he is being tickled just like toddlers or dogs.

Hari gets a thrill when rain is pouring as he gets actively more energetic with the cooler weather approaching, which during the heat he likes mud wallowing to keep his skin cool.

Rhino calf is predicted to weigh more than 200kg and will gain more than a kilo every day during his developmental period.

Ms Pollock explained that the species are solitary animals and are only enclosed together during breeding season and while the calf is still developing.

“We had to be very careful when breeding and plan it very strategically as the male and female can hurt each other if you are not cautious,” Ms Pollock said.

The pair was introduced in June 2020 and displayed

behaviours of compatibility through evidence of scruff marks, mock fighting and visualisations.

“Amala was chasing him for a while, but when they settled there were signs of natural mating behaviours,” she said.

With Hari’s father originating from Nagoya Zoo in Japan and his mother from Oklahoma City Zoo in the US, Ms Pollock said Taronga Western Plains Zoo is the only zoo in Australia to conserve Greater One-horned Rhinos.

“We are extremely fortunate to take part in the breed-

ing program as this species status is extremely vulnerable in the wild,” Ms Pollock said, explaining that Hari is still developing a lot of his characteristics, but he is very outgoing and has high bursts of energy.

“He is still very much a mummy’s boy as he always wants to keep close to his mother, but he is not afraid to venture a few metres from her anymore,” Ms Pollock said.

“Visual contact is very important with this species as they like to protect one another.”

A walk in progress

By TIJANA BIRDJAN COMMUTING from Sydney to Dubbo is not too intense if it’s by plane or car, but Benjamin Scott travels the journey by foot.

After leaving Newtown in Sydney on December 29, Benjamin arrived late last week in Dubbo on his way to complete his initial milestone destination, Darwin.

Alongside Benjamin walks his furry friend, Frankie, a 14-month-old German Shepherd, and the pair constitutes Walk2Recovery, a not-for-profit charity founded by Benjamin and his friends to raise awareness for drug and alcohol addiction and mental ill-health.

“We want to create programs, like this walk that provides initiatives and awareness to encourage growth and support for people having these experiences,” Benjamin says.

Recovering from addiction himself, Benjamin believes he can walk a path for other people to show that it’s a hard battle to overcome.

“The 12-step program did not work for me, and I know it does not work for a lot of other people, but that does not mean people can’t get sober,” he says.

Benjamin plans to continue his journey to Darwin in hopes

of progressing to his next milestone, kayaking to Timor.

“I’ve planned this journey through six milestones – with the first being Darwin,” says Benjamin who will be “grateful” if he makes it to Darwin.

Once he passes his second milestone, he will travel to Bangkok in Thailand, then continue to Beijing in China, then to Russia and finally make his way to Alaska.

“My sister’s name is Alaska, so the destination is very symbolic,” Benjamin expresses.

Benjamin also shares another family anecdote with Dubbo Photo News, telling how he and his adopted father recently contacted his father’s biological parents after a ten-year search.

“This is a really amazing story because my dad is a sailor and no one from his adoptive family has an interest with the water, however (my) biological father sailed around the world.

“This bit is even weirder now – my biological auntie walked around the planet, through the Sahara Desert.

“This gives me a lot more confidence in my abilities.”

With the walk being an international journey, Benjamin vows to keep a stable mentality through thinking of each milestone being a separate plan.

“I’m obviously trying to go as far as I can with my end goal being Alaska, but it’s important to remain aware of factors that can stop me with the journey, like visas or Frankie even,” Benjamin shares.

“I want to help people overcome not only their addiction but their dreams and knowing the capabilities (they) have.

“I got a lot of energy when I became sober, and I knew that was from tackling my own demons.”

Benjamin says the charity is actively looking for sponsors and has been approached by Sherpa Outdoor Gear and Athlete’s Foot, and he will broadcast his journey through online platforms where he hopes to generate money for the charity.

“Frankie’s paws get sore really quickly and he overheats a lot so my friends made him another cart in which he can be a bit more comfortable,” he says.

Continuing from Dubbo, Benjamin is travelling to Katherine then advancing his trek to Darwin.

He hopes the journey will take four months. If he can achieve that, Benjamin will be “stoked”.

Head to the Walk2Recovery Facebook page to support Benjamin and Frankie along their journey.

Overtaken with glee

Regional Transport and Roads minister Sam Farraway, Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders and Narromine Mayor Craig Davies lean on their shovels after announcing the start of work on much needed overtaking lanes between Dubbo and Narromine. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

THE absence of overtaking lanes between Dubbo and Narromine has caused great angst amongst motorists who travel that route daily, with plenty of double lines preventing overtaking on many stretches over the 34 kilometres of busy road.

So locals and travellers alike were glad to see that work has started on the first of three new overtaking lanes and safety upgrades on the Mitchell Highway as part of a $32 million investment.

The first overtaking lane is being built about 17km west of Dubbo at Lagoon Creek and Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders says the upgrades will create safer and more timely travel for the local community and passing freight, with a large number of residents commuting to work daily between Narromine and Dubbo.

“The new overtaking lane will be about 1.5 kilometres long, with the westbound lane widened to provide a new 3.5-metre lane for motorists to

pass slower traffic, as well as a 2-metre shoulder and a 0.5-metre verge,” Mr Saunders said.

“Investigation work – including survey, heritage and utility inspection – has already been carried out.

Clearing and drainage installation is now underway before work begins on actually building the lane.”

The other two overtaking lanes will be at Mylangra and Tantitha and planning is well underway, along with proposed other safety improvements including the widening of 11 kilometres of highway, installing rumble strips and safety barriers, and improving drainage and property accesses.

Narromine mayor Craig Davies said he was over the moon.

“It’s been one of the most talked about projects for this Narromine area, and I know every single person who uses the highway will be excited to see things getting underway."

FOCUS ON EDUCATION

Learning lessons from students

Sharon Murray says she loves educating students so they can live their best possible lives. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/JOHN RYAN

By JOHN RYAN SHARON Murray has spent 33 years of her life teaching, 30 of those as a principal and while the Covid uncertainty has played havoc with any sort of forward planning for educators during the past two years, she had enough tough challenges thrown at her as a young teacher to have given her the resilience to cope.

She told Dubbo Photo News that learning how to connect with her students in Brewarrina taught her plenty of life’s lessons in what reads like a To Sir with Love theme.

She ran into one of her former students, who by then had her own children, in the Dubbo CBD 10 years after leaving the tiny outback town and said that chance meeting became one of many career highlights “On a daily basis you don’t know

if you have any great affect or positive impact upon children, they come to your classes regularly and you turn up every day and you just keep doing what you know,” Ms Murray said.

“I ran into her in Dubbo and she told me she couldn’t believe that I was able to not only connect with her but make sure she got the best education. She couldn’t say enough about the importance of education. She was the first Year 12 student through the system in her family.

“At the time you think you’ve done the best you can but when you hear those sorts of stories down the track you think it’s all done for this reason which really does get your heart pumping and reinforces that you’re in this career for all the right reasons and that’s why we do what we do – and that’s why I’m still in the business.”

Sharon Murray has needed every bit of that resilience she learned early on in her career.

During the past 24 months the Dubbo South Primary School principal has seen on-again, offagain face-to-face schooling with remote learning being the norm over much of that time. That’s not only meant a pivot to set up organised and reliable online classes, but ensuring all the students, many from disadvantaged homes with little digital expertise, have equality of access.

And this against the backdrop of ever-changing rules and regulations where the only certainty was that everything was uncertain.

Just when things looked like stabilising, four classrooms were engulfed in a terrifying blaze just before the end of the tumultuous year.

“The past two years has been nothing more than horrific in dif-

ferent ways. It’s been a huge challenge and something we couldn’t have planned for, but it is just what it is with our lives,” she said.

“I believe that, under the circumstances, we’re really thriving. Our kids were challenged but they’re happy.

“We had the fire and that threw another spanner in the works big time and while it’s sad because we lost quite a lot of history, everyone was safe and the classrooms can be rebuilt and the kids are already excited at the fact that they can have an input into that rebuilding.”

Principal Murray says the fire rallied the entire school community and from that incident, the kids inadvertently counselled the students.

“We had lots of great strategies to support the students after the fire and making sure they got through. What we found was that

on the whole they were just able to move on. I was gobsmacked really about the strength in their characters, their own resilience,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“They just wanted to get back to being happy kids again, they wanted routine structure. They were really supportive and very caring for their teachers who they realised in many cases found it a lot harder to work through some of that but together we’ve come through really well out the other end and are looking forward to a fabulous year in 2022.

“I’ve been teaching now for 33 years so it’s always nice to wake up every day with drive. I’ll be working in education as long as I have that drive which is really important.

“I mean, education is changing forever and I think that’s quite refreshing. There’s always something around the corner.”

Regional voices left unheard without newspapers

By STEPH ALLEN THE closure of more than 100 regional newspapers across Australia in 2020 marked a tipping point for local news in this country, with ongoing issues of access to rural and regional news leaving many stories unheard.

Gilgandra Weekly and Narromine Star editor Lucie Peart said the closures and COVID-19 had continued to hinder an industry affected by supply issues and paper price hikes.

“Most of the immediate problems we’re facing as an industry in terms of actually being able to produce papers is getting it printed the same way, and getting the paper to print it on,” Ms Peart said of the current situation.

“Some major suppliers are putting up prices around 30-50 per cent because of a lack of supply and the demand for newsprint.”

Along with wages, newsprint (the paper that newspapers are printed on) is one of the two biggest expenses in producing a local paper. “(My publications) are yet to see that directly affect our newsprint costs, but other publishers across the country and state have already seen those increases. For some small newspapers it’s a $500 increase per issue. It’s not

sustainable.”

Ms Peart said another part of the problem, internationally, was the reduced options for paper milling.

“Local manufacturers are drying up,” said Ms Peart, who is also president of Country Press NSW. The pressure is not only coming from paper manufacturers – the number of newspaper printers in Australia has decreased over the past few years, meaning fewer printing options for the many independent publishers who don’t operate their own presses.

“Some of the major corporate businesses have changed the way they do business in the last 12 to 24 months, getting out of the printed edition and going digital only.

That’s left of lot of independent newspapers (especially in NSW) at the mercy of trying to find a printer to accommodate them.”

In light of these ongoing issues, a survey has just been made public seeking views on how Australians living in regional, rural or remote areas access news.

The survey comes as part of a federal parliamentary inquiry into Australia’s regional newspapers.

“We’re hopeful the survey will highlight the challenges we’re facing,” Ms Peart said.

“There’s been previous enquiries... the ACCC did a huge en-

quiry which resulted in the Small and Regional Publishers Innovations Fund.

“I’d like to see programs to bring cadetships under that funding... to encourage young people to take up careers in journalism.”

The House of Representatives Standing Committee on Communications and the Arts Chair, Dr Anne Webster MP, said the closure of rural news outlets over the last 10 years had resulted in a substantial reduction of articles covering local issues.

“The survey is part of a public enquiry... it asks some basic questions to try and understand what regional people think about news,” she said.

“The ACCC report done in 2019 shows there’s been a 15 per cent net total decline in regional newspaper from 2009 to 2018 – that means 106 closures and 85 per cent of those closures related to major news corporations.

“We need to acknowledge one of the contributing factors is advertising has reduced as businesses have declined... (advertising) is a significant income for local papers. “(Closures of rural news outlets) makes local communities feel invisible. We need to have our voices out there.”

The survey can be found at w w w. s u r v e y m o n k e y.c o m /r/ WPVW256 until it closes on February 11.

DUBBO residents will be interested to learn of new guidelines for funding under the Round 9 of the Remote Airstrip Upgrade (RAU) Program, which improves the safety and accessibility of aerodromes in Central West.

Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said this funding will be welcomed news for remote communities in the Parkes electorate.

“Anyone who lives in a remote community understands how important local airstrips are to our way of life, providing critical connectivity to larger regional centres and access to essential services,” Mr Coulton said.

Functioning airstrips are crucial to Central West as they ensure the delivery and supply of services, connect people to regional areas and assist in line-saving emergency flights.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development, Barnaby Joyce, said the next round will deliver up to $15m in grants.

“The extra $15m builds on the $70m we’ve already got to support 340 remote airstrip upgrade projects,” he said.

Eligible owners or operators of existing aerodromes in remote areas of Australia can apply for a grant between $5,000 and $3m.

Applications will open from February 3 and close March 17, 2022.

EMERGENCY REPORT

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

was far more popular with working, operational cops than they were themselves – but in my opinion, that doesn’t make it right.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

Fatal crash JUST after 1.15pm on January 24, emergency services were called to Coonabarabran Road near Mendooran – about 40km north west of Dunedoo – following reports a Holden Commodore station wagon had crashed into a tree.

The driver of the Holden – a 46-year-old woman – died at the scene.

Three passengers of the vehicle – two girls, aged 11 and eight, and a six-year-old boy – were assisted out of the car by members of the public.

The boy was treated by paramedics for fractures to his shoulder, leg and arm. The older girl was treated for a fractured ankle and pelvic pain while the younger girl was treated by for a fractured wrist. All three were airlifted to Westmead Children’s Hospital.

As inquiries continue, anyone who witnessed the crash or who has dash-cam footage from the area, is urged to contact police.

A report will be prepared for the information of the Coroner.

Car trailer stolen AS readers of this column know, I’m not a fan of crooks and thieves and hate the fact that good people work hard to get ahead, only to have low-lifes decide they deserve other people’s possessions more than do their owners.

day morning and put a call out to the local car community for help – the trailer tilts and has a winch as is used daily as a vital and integral part of his building work.

Great to see the information flow start to rush in, a tip off leading to its recovery.

This illustrates only too clearly that the vast majority of people in Dubbo want to do the right thing and will offer help to ensure justice is done.

Well done to all concerned.

SPARE a thought for Austin Grey, whose ute was stolen from Firgrove and used in a Peak Hill ram raid at about 1:40am on Monday morning.

Police say two people drove the white ute through the front entrance of a service station on Cawsell Street and after gaining entry, the pair allegedly stole cigarettes as well as an ATM before fleeing towards Dubbo.

A crime scene was established and the ute was recovered in Brocklehurst about 7.30am the same day – it will be examined by forensic police.

Meantime, police are keen to catch these crooks so if you have any knowledge of the incident or any CCTV or dash-cam vision which might assist, please call

Choppered to safety

Mick Willing’s poor treatment

I WAS just west of town at the weekend when I saw the Westpac Rescue Helicopter flying back into town after being tasked by New South Wales Ambulance to a rural property at The Marra, north of Nyngan to reports of an 18-month-old boy suffering from a serious medical condition.

Recent flooding in the area of the property made it difficult for road Ambulance to access.

Upon arrival, the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Critical Care Medical Team and local paramedics treated the child before airlifting him to Dubbo Hospital

IMAGINE being in line for the job of NSW Police Commissioner and the new state Premier going against that decision – that’s reportedly what happened to former Dubbo boy and popular top cop Mick Willing.

News outlets have claimed the new commissioner Karen Webb called him on the phone while he was on holidays to tell him he was out of a job. Weak effort, if true, and not the way I’d like my state’s police commissioner to act.

I can understand why someone who got the job that way may be fearful of having a deputy who

TWO people have been charged following an alleged robbery of a Wellington service station.

About 3.35am on January 19, two people in a 4WD stopped and allegedly forced entry into a closed service station on Dubbo Road, Wellington.

Police will allege the pair stole cigarettes and cash before fleeing the location.

Following inquiries, investigators arrested a 19-year-old man at a home on Cooinda Crescent, Dubbo, just after 12.45pm the same day and charged him with aggravated break and enter commit serious indictable offence and be carried in conveyance taken without consent of owner.

About 12.20am on January 20 police were called to Lilydale Terrace in Dubbo following reports of a person allegedly breaking into a car.

Officers arrested a 15-year-old boy nearby on Ellenborough Avenue and charged him with aggravated break and enter commit serious indictable offence, take and drive conveyance without consent of owner, aggravated break and enter dwelling in company steal, larceny value, possess housebreaking implements and face disguised with intent commit indictable offence.

They were both refused bail to appear before a children’s court and Dubbo Local Court.

Car rammed

WHEN you park your car overnight, you hope and believe, that you should be able to walk out the front in the morning, jump in it and go.

Not so for Luke Wykes. Between the hours on 1-2am on January 25 someone collided with his car which was parked in Ronald Street.

“I have been told there was loud arguing and screaming leading up to this,” he said.

“If anyone has any information about reckless driving or witnessed an argument in this street at this hour can you please contact the police.”  Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Battling two crises at once

By TIJANA BIRDJAN THE pandemic has affected every sector across the globe with the hospitality industry being no different.

Small businesses have complied with continuous restriction changes including shutting down venues, and imposing drinking prohibitions and social distancing guidelines, which has only hindered the growth of hospitality.

Dubbo cafes, restaurants and hospitality venues have had to reduce their hours and staff in order to comply with regulations in order to survive.

Black Tambourine owner Henry D’oliveiro was required to shut his kitchen at the weekend as his staff been exposed as close contacts.

The shop continued trade with reduced hours selling coffee, smoothies and produce in the display cabinet.

According to Mr D’oliveiro there is no use hiring someone for two days, when there are employees waiting at home.

“Industries have suffered enough and it’s time for the government to do something about it,” Mr D’oliveiro said that everything the government are doing now is reactive, not proactive.

“We need to be held responsible for the decisions we make.”

Mr D’oliveiro said that his business has been extremely fortunate through the pandemic as it has still been able to operate for takeaway while dine-in restric-

tions were in place.

“While we have suffered a lot in (terms of) sit-in style eatings, we have been supported by the community to keep us going,” he said.

“Are we essential to a point?

Yes. I certainly don’t think we’re as essential as other sectors, but we do keep the economy turning.

“The virus has one job – to survive.

“Exactly like the rest of us, that’s why it keeps on mutating and adapting, just like we do.”

Like many other Dubbo businesses, Mr D’oliveiro shares that he is also experiencing a workforce shortage resulting in decreased trade hours and says there must be a line drawn somewhere because he wants to employ people and get them back

into the workforce.

“People have been making appointments for interviews and haven’t been turning up,” he said.

“If you want to be the CEO of a company stand in line. A lot of people want to be the CEO, but not many people can handle the job.”

Through the peak of the Omicron variant and workforce shortages, the Black Tambourine owner is aware of the struggles the Dubbo hospitality sector faces.

“Our community helps each other where we can,” Mr D’oliveiro said.

Black Tambourine sources 80 per cent of its stock and produce from local companies and displays company business cards on its windowsill.

“Everyone I have associated or

been in business with has supported me where they can, so it is important to do the same,” he said, adding that Black Tambourine grew from word of mouth, so he understands the complexities.

“Not only am I selling the best product that I can provide, but I’m selling the best local product.”

Black Tambourine sponsored a local football club last year and Mr D’oliveiro told Dubbo Photo News the business will be sponsoring another group in the next coming weeks.

“A lot of local services have also been supporting us and other businesses through the pandemic which is fantastic.”

Mr D’oliveiro expressed that one of the key reasons that his business is surviving the pandemic is the structural and cultural change Dubbo is experiencing.

“People from metropolitan areas are used to an urban lifestyle and they expect that when they visit,” he said, adding that people are slowly expanding and bringing their foreign and urban cultures into the hub.

“We are fortunate because our hub is getting bigger, and locals get the opportunity to experience different cuisines.”

Mr D’oliveiro thanks the Dubbo community for its support of not just Black Tambourine, but all small and local businesses.

“The community has really strengthened throughout this pandemic, and I know that we can survive this.”

EMERGENCY REPORT

Aggravated break and enter charges DUBBO police have charged two people following an alleged aggravated break and enter in the city at the weekend.

About 6.30am on January 22, four people allegedly armed with knives forced entry into a home on Al-cheringa Street, demanding to speak with a man.

Police were told a man inside the home was assaulted, the four alleged assailants bolting out to the back yard as police arrived.

Following inquiries, a 32-yearold woman and a 33-year-old man were arrested at a Braun Avenue home on January 24 and were charged with aggravated break and enter with intent knowing person there and armed with intent to commit indictable offence.

Inquiries have led police to believe the four alleged assailants and the victim are known to each other.

Sick truckies on the road Car torched despite risks, union says

By STEPH ALLEN STARTLING claims from the Transport Workers’ Union (TWU) have suggested truck drivers are copping the brunt of the country’s Rapid Antigen Test shortage and are being forced back on the road despite being close contacts or testing positive to the virus.

TWU National Secretary Michael Kaine said the National Cabinet decision to send drivers, most likely carrying the virus, back to work without even the provision of free Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs), would worsen the transport crisis in coming weeks.

“National Cabinet has cut the last thread of hope the transport industry had of recovering from chronic worker shortages,” Mr Kaine said.

“Distribution centres will become virus hotbeds sending more essential workers to the sick beds, infecting their families along the way.

“We’re already hearing reports of close contact transport workers forced to return to work, leaving childcare to sick partners. Other close contacts were handed gloves and wipes and told to keep working until they tested positive.

“These are the workers who’ve kept us going throughout the pandemic, now given no choice but to

Transport workers need free and abundant RATs, amongst other measures, so that the industry can continue to delivery essential goods across the region, the union said.

risk their own health and that of their families.”

One worker revealed in a recent TWU survey (completed by 2500 workers in freight, food delivery, aviation, distribution centres and passenger transport) that they had tested positive again after six days of isolation and were told they didn’t require another RAT

after seven days and could return to work.

“I refused as I still had symptoms,” the worker said.

Another revealed they were “pressured to work” even though they could “barely drive the bus”.

“I refused to work the next day because I tested positive,” they said.

A third survey participant said they were being “harassed by phone calls and messages from management” telling them to return to work immediately despite being unwell.

The recent survey also revealed that workers were losing pay or being criticised for fulfilling isolation requirements, management was not informing workers they’d worked in close quarters with Covid-positive colleagues, and casual workers were feeling pressured to work while possibly infectious because they have no sick leave.

Mr Kaine said in order for the industry to survive the Omicron wave, transport workers required free and abundant RATs, prioritisation and leave for booster shots, and isolation of those most likely carrying the virus.

“Now is the time to shield the suffering industry, not detonate more virus explosions in essential workplaces,” he said.

“To lessen this significant blow, we call on all states and territories to adopt similar requirements to the Victorian Government which states all other options must be exhausted before bringing close contacts into the workplace, and that consent must be given from both worker and workplace.”

...while deadly start prompts calls for tougher truckie rules

By STEPH ALLEN A GRIM start to the new year on the roads has seen 12 people killed in truck crashes and prompted calls from transport representatives to strengthen licensing for one of the country’s deadliest industries.

The Transport Workers Union has called on governments to bring in more “structured, thought-through competency-based licencing” for years, but new changes proposed by National Cabinet have been unveiled – without any consultant with the union.

TWU national assistant secretary Nick McIntosh said the changes were part of a “panicked, half-baked response” from the government, which had “failed to plan” for COVID-19 reality.

"Now the Morrison government is just falling back into bad habits of listening to the bosses, and unrepresentative swill... who see this crisis as an opportunity to cut corners and erode safety standards,” Mr McIntosh said.

"Scaling back hours required to obtain a trucker's licence and opting instead for a cereal box licensing scheme

will only make our roads more deadly."

So far in 2022, 12 people have been killed in road crashes involving trucks, including three truck drivers.

"We already know what the outcome will be if we weaken licensing requirements,” Mr McIntosh said.

“Last time we discussed licensing, training changes, and reliance on foreign drivers, we had truckies who were blocking tunnels they couldn’t fit under because they didn’t know how to reverse the truck.

Before anyone gets behind the wheel, they need training."

WHAT is so wrong with some people that they’re more than happy to light up a car sitting on the side of the road for no other reason than to get some cheap thrills?

This car was on the side of the road for sale on Wellington’s southern outskirts when police say it was torched by unknown persons about 5am on January 22.

Wellington police are asking for communuty help to solve the mystery of who set this car on fire.

IT’S A RECORD! American adventurer Victor Vescovo has set a Guinness World Record by climbing our planet’s tallest mountain, Mauna Kea (“White Mountain”) in Hawaii.

If you’re wondering why we’re not talking about Mount Everest (which he has also climbed), it comes down to size versus altitude. Soaring to 8848.8 metres above sea level (asl), Everest – aka Chomolungma or Sagarm th – is the world’s highest mountain. But while the top of Mauna Kea falls far below the lofty zenith of its Himalayan rival, it is more than a kilometre taller than Everest when comparing the two from base to pinnacle. Victor first rose, or perhaps that should be descended, to prominence in the record books when he became the first person to visit the oceans’ greatest depths in 2018-19.

Indigenous organisations receive $110k disability support injection FIVE Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community organisations in the Parkes electorate have each received $22,000 funding.

The funding is expected to help improve the delivery of National Disability Insurance Scheme support services to indigenous residents across the region.

The Federal Government funding was provided to Bourke Aboriginal Corporation Health Service, Brewarrina Aboriginal Medical Service, Coonamble Aboriginal Health Service, Pius X Aboriginal Corporation and Walgett Aboriginal Medical Service through the Indigenous Business Support Funding grants.

“Each of these organisations play an important role in improving the health of their local Aboriginal communities, and this funding will help them address challenges in registering and delivering NDIS services,” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said.

The Indigenous Business Support Funding grants are expected to increase readiness of recipients to register and deliver services under the NDIS, increase the number of registered Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations, and deliver services under the NDIS.

UNPREDICTABLE weather continues to batter the region, creating dramas with many of the gum trees across the region.

Among the latest casualties were trees near the Dubbo Visitor Information Centre.

Dubbo Regional Council open space and recreation manager Ian McAlister said over the past couple of weeks during periods of bad weather, which included heavy rain and high winds, three major limbs have fallen from trees in Macquarie Lions Park.

It’s an area not only where people use the trees for shade, but it’s close to popular walking tracks frequented by hundreds of people each week.

“Council operational staff quickly attended the site and removed the limbs and made the area safe for the public to continue to use,” Mr McAlister told

Dubbo Photo News.

“The trees from which the limbs came from are all Eucalyptus camaldulensis (River Red Gum) that are quite mature specimens. This species is known to shed limbs from time to time. The current weather patterns may be contributing to the recent limb drop.

“Council asks the public to be mindful of the potential of falling branches across the open space network, especially in high wind situations.

In an emergency during storms or storm damage people are urged to contact the NSW State Emergency Service (SES) on 132 500.

The SES website also has detailed information on preparing for storms and what people can do to keep their properties and businesses safe during weather events.

WELLINGTON NEWS Local doc returns to regional roots WE WELCOME YOUR NEWS, IDEAS & PHOTOS email wellingtonnews@panscott.com.au phone 6885 4433

By TIJANA BIRDJAN BORN and grown Wellington resident, Kate Jeffery recently graduated from Western Sydney Uni to become a doctor.

Committed to giving back to her regional community, Ms Jeffery has returned home to advance her career at the Dubbo Base Hospital.

“I was always interested in science as a student, then in year 10 I did my work experience at the hospital and knew I wanted to work in the healthcare system,” Ms Jeffery said.

“I fell in love with the idea of medicine.”

The 23-year-old commences work next Monday at the hospital with her first rotation beginning in the Emergency Department.

“I’m both excited and nervous,” she shared. “It will definitely be a learning curve, but it will immediately make me more prepared for the rest of the year.

“I get the opportunity to learn a lot of things quickly.”

Ms Jeffery was presented with the Ganya Indigenous Academic Excellence Award at her graduation ceremony.

The award is offered to the most outstanding Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander graduating student in the Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS).

“Seeing more Indigenous people becoming medical and healthcare students is very important to our

community as we get the opportunity to support others,” she said.

Ms Jeffery, alongside other medical students, initiated an Aboriginal medical council to support indigenous students in medicine and assist the community in how services are offered.

“We attend events such as NAIDOC, Aboriginal medical services and other volunteer work,” Ms Jeffery said, adding that through the council, both the students and the community are equally supported.

“We’re fulfilling our dreams in our chosen careers because of

what the community did for us when we were younger, so they deserve something back.”

Ms Jeffery said the five-year course in a metropolitan area can often attract people to settle down and establish their careers in the city.

“This makes it a lot harder to want to pursue a career in regional areas, but I was always set on returning home,” she said.

“I would really like to see initiatives to get students and doctors into remote and regional areas as there are a lack of services and staff provided,” Ms Jeffery said even the wait times to see a GP to receive a transcription are extremely long.

“They tried to replace the need for face to face contact with telehealth services but it just isn’t the same.

“People around the country should have access to the same services provided in metropolitan areas – healthcare is a human right,” Ms Jeffery said.

"Healthcare should not matter where you are located."

TV series takes camera Behind Bars at Wellington

By STEPH ALLEN A NEW reality television series will take viewers into the heart of three maximum security prisons in NSW, including the facility at Wellington.

The series, Australia Behind Bars, will be hosted by journalist and TV personality Melissa Doyle.

“I think people are fascinated by what really happens inside prison,” Ms Doyle said.

“We’ve seen the dramatised version in ‘Wentworth’, so this is a chance to see what it’s really like.

“NSW Corrections agreed to allow cameras in for the first time because they want the public to see corrections officers as real people doing a very difficult job.”

The series will visit maximum security prisons at Wellington, Dillwynia Women’s, and Silverwa-

ter – which is mostly operated as a remand prison.

“We get to know both the prisoners and corrections officers and learn a little more about who they are and why they are driven to do what they do,” Ms Doyle said.

“What the corrections officers deal with from drugs, death and violence, to contraband, and prisoners with mental health issues. What motivates the blue and the green?

“It’s an insight into day-to-day life behind bars. The harsh realities, the raids, riots and overdoses.

“And the human toll – a terrified kid on his first week inside and the dad who gets himself arrested just to be close to his son, the mother separated from her children and her efforts to be reunited with them, the moment a prisoner finds out they will be released.”

The series will also shine a light on how much of Australia’s prison life is reform and how much is survival.

“Approximately one in two prisoners will return to gaol within a couple of years of release,” Ms Doyle said.

Viewers will be able to see a lot of behind-the-scenes work that is done to prepare prisoners for the outside world upon release, as well as the “cat and mouse game” between Corrections Officers and the prisoners.

“They’ll see real people hanging onto hope,” Ms Doyle said.

“We didn’t want to make heroes of convicted criminals, because for every crime there’s a victim, but we did want to give people who had made mistakes a voice.”

New “Cub” reporter’s bird’s eye view

By TIJANA BIRDJAN MOVING to Dubbo from Adelaide shy of two weeks ago, I am yet to discover the city’s hidden gems – and what better way to find them than from above the ground?

So it was a thrill to be able to get a bird’s eye view of my new hometown when pilot Dan Compton generously took me up, up, and away for a perspective through the lens of a 1937 classic style J-3 Cub. Having previous experience with the Royal Flying Doctor Service and the air force, Dan currently operates Dubbo-based flying school Wings Out West, doing flight training that caters from beginners starting out to advanced students who want to enhance their skills.

With my only encounter of planes being commercial airlines, our experience in aviation juxtaposes dramatically.

My ignorance towards Cubs was illustrated on my face when Dan told me I was to sit on the front seat of the aircraft.

Sitting at the nose of the cub was testing my limited plane knowledge as I was familiar with the pilot operating the controls and being located in front of the passenger.

While flying Dan pointed out Dubbo landmarks, including Taronga Western Plains Zoo, Macquarie Street and the Orana Mall shopping district.

Observing from above, the elephants and giraffes from the zoo brought back nostalgia of my

childhood, having resemblance to miniature toys that brought me so much joy growing up, and the cars on the road replicated my younger brother’s Hot Wheels collection.

It was an oddly relaxing feeling to be reminiscing about my childhood when this was the first experience I had of being a passenger in a legendary Cub. Keeping in mind that this flight was instructional, Dan proceeded to inform me of safety procedures and guidelines of the aircraft.

Talking about his experiences and where his passion stemmed from, he said he always wanted to teach.

“I think this is a good balance. I get to fly every day and do what I love, but also get the chance to explore my second passion of teach-

ing,” Dan said.

The minimal time for students to achieve their pilot’s licence is 20 hours, Dan said, but the average time is a bit more than that for students to feel completely comfortable operating independently.

“Wings Out West has given me the opportunity to meet people through all walks of life and ignite a spark in their lives again,” Dan said, naming his favourite part about the instructional flights as seeing the passion behind someone’s eyes.

When we were comfortable in the air, Dan gave me control of the Cub. “If you move the gear stick up, the nose tilts down, if you move it left, the plane turns left,” he told me and after a few simple direc-

tions, I was in control of the movements of the aircraft.

Obviously, there is a lot more to it, Dan said “but they’re the basic movements”.

Strangely, I felt exceptionally comfortable operating the aircraft.

“When I was younger, I had dreams of flying but ever since I learnt how to fly – those dreams disappeared,” Dan said.

Only moving to Dubbo just over a decade ago, Dan shared his experience of the town and reassured me of the friendly undertone.

“Everyone is so generous and accommodating,” he said, explaining that having come from other regional towns made him notice a more approachable atmosphere when settling in Dubbo.

Taking back control of the Cub, Dan steered the plane lower to the ground to instruct me on low level flying.

Dan had told me that he could land safely in a tree, and he did almost exactly that.

Below us there was a clear gap among a collection of trees, and directed the aircraft into the isolated patch.

In the moment we were travelling closer to the terrain, I got an instant thrill as we sprang into the air.

The adrenaline immediately kicked in once my stomach dropped, and I told Dan through the headset that the feeling was like no other.

Circling back to the garage I knew I would remember this flight for a long time.

Landing on the airstrip and stepping out of the out the airline, Dan looked at my smile and said, “That’s why I do it – in hopes of getting every student to smile like you are right now.”

Pharmacies on the jab job plead for a heads-up

By JEN COWLEY SALLY Sheehan has been a pharmacist for three decades and she’s seen almost everything when it comes to the day-to-day health needs of the western plains community in which she grew up.

Almost.

Nothing could have prepared her for Coronavirus.

“Never, ever, ever have I seen anything like this,” she says from behind the mask and white protective gear that’s become as much a part of her everyday workwear as a name tag.

“When I did my degree all those years ago, I could never have envisaged I’d be vaccinating people against a global pandemic.”

That she and other pharmacists are in fact now delivering those jabs is a welcome addition to the community’s defence against the virus according to the experienced co-owner of Delroy Terry White Chemmart who long argued for the move.

“Allowing pharmacists to give the vaccines has made it so much more accessible for so many more people, but it was very frustrating that it took so long.”

The procession of people seeking the vaccine, and now the booster, has been relentless for the team, but the workload has now ramped up to an even more frenetic pace.

“The whole Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) thing has been a nightmare.

“We had to change the message on our phone because every second call was someone trying to find a RAT, and our supplies have been really hit and miss.”

Mrs Sheehan and her staff are now bracing for when the government’s program of five free tests per month for concession card-holders kicks in.

“We have to record and report it all through the pharmacy, which is a lot of work, but the government isn’t supplying the tests to us. We have to source our own stock for the program, and pay whatever price is being asked, even though the remuneration is being set at a flat rate by the government.

“It’s putting a lot of pressure on us.”

At a time when members of the general public are frightened and on edge after being tormented for more than two years now with the spectre of an unseen enemy, front line workers like Sally Sheehan

and her staff are squarely in the firing line in the wake of the latest development in the pandemic’s life.

“I feel sorry for the public,” she says.

“They’re being told by the government that they must go and get RATs, but they can’t source them.

“It’s particularly tough for business owners who have to test their staff – I’ve had some who are absolutely desperate because they’re trying to keep their businesses operating.

“It’s not just families and individuals that are being affected.”

Hopefully, things will ease somewhat with a “big drop” of RATs in early February – Mrs Sheehan has her fingers crossed tightly.

“But it’s so hard to know. We had 1000 ordered recently, then the supplier cancelled our order.

It’s so frustrating.”

With a platform from which to speak directly to the government, this tired but dedicated community pharmacist would have one simple request: “Please forewarn us when you’re going to make decisions.

“For instance, they announced the change to the interval between vaccines and boosters, but they told the general public before they told us. Suddenly, we have everyone looking for appointments and we had no time to prepare.

“They really need to give front-

line workers the heads up first.

“They need to tell us, for instance, about RATs, and make sure we have time to get them into stock before they do the free rollout, and also give us time to sort out a strategy for rolling it out.

We’re the ones who will be policing it, not the government.”

The experienced community pharmacist also has a dire warning for those who may be tempted to source RATs on the cheap, or from the internet, for instance.

“It’s really important to stress to people that they must be careful when they’re buying RATs to make sure the tests are the ones approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA),” she says, adding that there are “a lot of scammers out there”.

If you want to make sure you’re getting a reliable RAT, you can check the TGA website, which has a list of approved RATs. “The tests being sold through pharmacies are all TGA-approved, so if you want to be safe, go to your local pharmacist. The nonTGA approved tests simply aren’t reliable.”

••• THE latest addition to the schedule of vaccination duties for pharmacists is the start of the “junior jabs” for those aged 5-11.

While we wait at an acceptable social distance for a break in the traffic to speak with the busy pharmacist, there’s a steady

stream of young patients rolling up their sleeves.

Among them are the Pears’ boys – Henry, 7, and Arthur, 5 who is about to go to “big school” for the very first time.

Mum Danielle cut short the boys’ holiday with their grandmother, so important she felt it was for them to be vaccinated.

“Both the boys are asthmatic,” she tells Dubbo Photo News while the boys unwrap their post-vaccine treat.

“I was worried they would have a more significant reaction to Covid-19 than other kids, but I also work for (the department of) health, and I regularly see the implications on long-term illness in children.

“I will do anything to protect the health of my family.

“My husband and I lined up very early in the piece, and the kids are in as early as I could get them vaccinated.”

As a mother, what would she say to other parents who have reservations about their children getting the vaccine?

“I’d say the things we read on social media aren’t always reliable – if you have worries, talk to an actual health professional like your doctor or pharmacist or nurse you trust – get evidence-based advice.”

The boys, Mrs Pears says, were quite laidback about the jabs, and were made age-appropriately aware of the need for the shots.

“They have their ‘flu shots every year and so we just explained to them that the Covid shot would be very similar to that – they were fine, they were just excited to get the lollypop and the badge at the end.

For her part, Mrs Sheehan says most people are keen to protect their children, but she is urging parents to be patient and wait the recommended eight weeks between the first and second vaccines.

“I know people are anxious and want to have their children double vaxxed before they return to school, but that’s simply not going to be possible,” she warns.

For parents who are nervous, she says the vaccine is extremely well tolerated in children.

“The most common side-effect in kids is that they get a bit of a sore arm.

“Kids are tolerating the vaccine way better than adults, and it’s really important to remember just what a hot zone schools are for spreading Covid. For the sake of vulnerable grandparents, for instance, or for teachers, it’s important to have the kids vaccinated.”

••• ASKED to gaze into her crystal ball, Mrs Sheehan says she believes, as do many who are in the thick of healthcare provision during this pandemic, that the virus is simply something we’re going to have to learn to get along with.

“I think it’ll become like the ‘flu, and the injections we have for that. We’ll get mutations and they’ll develop vaccines for that particular variant.”

She points to the number of people who have now had the virus across NSW, and to the consequent rise in a semblance of immunity without the corresponding deadliness.

“Hopefully, by the time winter comes – which is when it tends to spike – we might all be in a better position to deal with it,” she says.

“There’s even talk of looking at combining the ‘flu and Covid vaccinations all in one. Wouldn’t that be great for everyone?”

What would also be great for everyone is for authorities to be on the same page, she agrees, but is magnanimous in her assessment of the way forward.

“To be fair to the government, this thing is such an unknown quantity that they’re learning as they go along just as we all are.”

Novavax green light might help ease fears

By STEPH ALLEN VACCINE hesitancy has been an undeniable factor of the Covid-19 pandemic worldwide, with some residents across Dubbo and the region showing the same reluctance as those in other parts of the world.

However, the recent announcement that a new vaccine, Novavax (otherwise known as Nuvaxovid), had been approved for use in Australia has given many residents solace about returning to unrestricted life.

The new vaccine, which received Therapeutic Goods Association (TGA) approval on January 20, differs from the three vaccines currently in wide use

(AstraZeneca, Pfizer and Moderna) as it has been developed more traditionally, as a spike protein-based vaccine.

Delroy Terry White Chemmart pharmacist Sally Sheehan said her Dubbo pharmacy had a number of customers awaiting Novavax.

“An exciting development (in the Covid situation) is with the approval of Novovax as an alternative vaccine,” Ms Sheehan said.

“There’s been a group of people who have been hesitant about the vaccine because of the technology used, whereas the Novovax uses the older, protein-based technology.

“That cohort will now be able to access a vaccine they’ve

been waiting for, so there will be another per centage of the population who will have their vaccinations.

“We’ve had quite a few people waiting for Novovax, and so we’re pretty excited that it’s been announced as approved.”

Despite the good news, GPs and pharmacists are still awaiting news on when the vaccine will be made available for them to provide to the public.

“We don’t know quite when it will be available, but to have the TGA approve it is very good news for those people who have been so hesitant about the other vaccines.”

According to the Australian Department of Health, the Federal Government has ordered 51

million doses of Novavax, which will be used as a primary course of vaccination in people aged 18 years and older.

Throughout trials, Novavax demonstrated to be highly effective in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 in adults, based on

phase II-III clinical trials involving over 45,000 participants.

Novavax is not currently registered by the TGA for use as a COVID-19 booster vaccine.

The vaccine will be available to be administered from the week of February 21.

IN THE NEWS

Second stage of pipeline project to improve water at Yeoval and Cumnock begins PROGRESS on the second stage of the $16.7m Orange to Molong Pipeline project, set to deliver improved water supply services to Central West residents, kicked off on Monday.

Residents have been advised to expect intermittent interruptions to their water supply over the next month as works progress on the water pipeline from Molong.

A Cabonne Council spokeswoman said the 49km pipeline from Molong to Cumnock and Yeoval would provide improved water security by providing reticulated potable and fluoridated water to Yeoval and Cumnock for the first time.

The works in Yeoval are set to run from January 24 to February 25.

Residents can expect some interruptions on weekdays between 8.30am and 4.30pm.

Works on the pipeline also started in Cumnock on Monday, and will continue until February 18, with similar interruptions during the same hours.

Water to both villages will predominately be sourced from the Molong Dam, with backup supply from a bore at Molong and from Orange.

The project was announced in 2019.

The spokeswoman said the Molong to Yeoval pipeline was the second stage of the Orange to Molong Pipeline project.

“This project is nearing completion, with council and its contractors currently undertaking disinfection works in the pipe network in each of these villages.

“These works will involve replacement of isolation valves and the cleaning of the pipe infrastructure.”

The spokeswoman said the work would not only prepare the villages for access to Molong water, but would ensure the water infrastructure in Yeoval and Cumnock is suitable for the future.

“These works will unfortunately result in the intermittent interruption of the water supply service to Cumnock and Yeoval over the next month,” she said.

Yeoval and Cumnock residents can opt-in to the pipeline project until the end of February 2022.

After this time, residents wishing to opt-in will be responsible for the costs associated with connecting water services to their household.

Residents can contact Cabonne Council to opt in to the project.

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

New scams targeting phone users

By STEPH ALLEN DECEPTIVE phone scammers have continued to target residents across Dubbo and the Central West with a string of “Flubot” scams currently popping up around the region.

A common text being received is one that encourages the user to click on a link, which upon doing so, infects the phone with a malware scam – designed to infect devices, steal contacts and read the phone screen.

The Flubot scams have been targeting Australians since August 2021, with many residents receiving scam text messages about missed calls, voicemails, parcel deliveries and photo uploads.

The text messages ask phone users to tap on a link to download or access something.

Flubots are regularly updated by scammers, and Android phones are reportedly more at risk.

An ACCC spokesperson urged phone users to remember the “3Ds” if they should ever receive a suspicious text. “Do not click, do not download, and delete,” the spokesperson said.

“The ACCC encourages you to make a report on the Scamwatch website.

“This helps us gather data that allows us to provide timely warnings to the public about emerging scams.”

Flubot scam content varies,

Inset, a scam text received by a local resident last week (Dubbo Photo News has pixelated the web address).

Scamwatch received more than a quarter of a million reports of scams last year.

but they all contain a link containing five to nine random numbers.

If you have an Android device, typically the application downloaded is called Voicemail71.apk, Update42.apk or DHL34.apk. This application is malware.

The application may be able to read text messages, send texts from the phone, make phone calls from the phone, and access contacts.

Installing the software is also likely to give scammers access to passwords and accounts, which can be used to steal money or personal information.

Apple devices cannot be infected with Flubot but will likely be infected by other forms of malware upon clicking on these links.

In 2021, Scamwatch received 286,608 reports of scams with over $323 million in reported losses.

If you have lost money to a scam, contact your bank or financial institution as soon as possible.

Ag, mining job boom across central west

By STEPH ALLEN DESPITE the challenges faced by the region’s workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic, the unemployment rate is currently at a 13year low, sparking fresh hope for the re-emergence of struggling industries.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, after the economy added 64,800 jobs in December 2021, the country’s jobless rate was lowered from 4.6 per cent in November to 4.2 per cent.

Federal Member for Parkes Mark

Coulton said the recent job figures demonstrated the strength and resilience of the Australian economy.

“Measures such as JobKeeper, apprentice wage supports and business tax incentives have resulted in more people in work since 2008, more apprentices in training than ever before and more businesses investing in our region,” Mr Coulton said.

“The low unemployment figures in Dubbo and the Central West are a result of the strong position of the agricultural sector and an increased involvement in mining,

with various projects underway not just locally but further afield in areas serviced by Dubbo.

“Dubbo is also a regional health hub and in recent years has seen an increase in the number of people employed in the health sector, which will only continue to grow.

“While the Omicron wave has presented challenges for the workforce, I’m confident that our regional economy and the local jobs market will remain strong as the agricultural and mining industries continue to help lead Australia’s recovery from COVID-19.”

LOCAL parents have taken the first-aid education of their children into their own hands, with Dubbo mum Caja O’Brien saying that having basic knowledge of what to do in a crisis situation was vital no matter your age.

She was an organiser for a junior first aid course run at St Mary’s Primary School hall on Monday morning.

“The Red Cross elementary first aid course is for 8-11 year olds and has been organised by the parents,” she said.

“Country and farm kids are more often in situations where accidents can happen and the parents wanted to give them the foundational skills of what to do if and when an accident happens.”

There was a good roll-up and the parents are hoping to obtain funding so regular courses can be run for kids.

In an interesting twist, First Aid Trainer George Chapman used a copy of Dubbo Photo News, tightly rolled, as a splint to show students (and parents) that you sometimes have to make do with what’s available.

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 latest in a long line of cycling champions

By GEOFF MANN THE young man who flew around Anna Meares Velodrome at the National Championships to claim a full suite of medals is the 2022 Dubbo Young Sportsperson of the year.

Dylan Eather wore gold from a phenomenal ride in the Scratch Race, Silver after the Time Trail and Bronze following the team pursuit. These ‘next level’ medals complemented the three gold and a silver he won at the Dunc Gray Olympic Stadium earlier in the year to claim the mantle of NSW top rider.

Like most athletes Dylan’s opportunities were limited during the pandemic of the past two years but he’s nevertheless developed into one

of best performers from the proud Dubbo Cycle Club. The trophy cabinet in the Eather family is doubly full, with brother Kurt and dad Vaughn both prolific ‘accumulators’.

Dylan’s win was meritorious given the quality of nominees.

Perennial finalist Ella Penman was again in contention after claiming the prestigious 800/1500m double at the NSW All Schools late last year. Her flying feet and steely determination have national champions written all over them.

Others to feature during the year include 17-year-old State Squash Champion Sophie Simpson, NSW Age winning swimmer Bianca Fuller and 14-year-old footballer Tyra Towney who has been awarded a John Moriarty Scholarship.

Peter’s influence has enabled croquet players to jump through hoops

By GEOFF MANN PETER Heywood is an unassuming, insightful and generous person who has played a key role in Dubbo Croquet Club’s stunning “return from the brink.”

Four years ago it seemed all hope was lost for the “aulde club” that had intrigued visitors to Victoria Park. Members were advised that the turf court in the grounds of the City Bowling Club were to have an alternative use.

“Devastated” was how Club members described their feelings. “It was like a kick in the guts”.

Peter Heywood and others are not the type to lay down in the face of adversity and began a

quest to find new premises.

Little did this band of croquet enthusiasts imagine what lay at the end of the yellow brick road – a collection of sand and synthetic tennis courts that had served the community for over half a century became an oasis for the people who wear red and white flannels and ply coloured balls with an assortment of wooden and metallic mallets.

Peter, who had entered the Croquet scene in 2009 and has served on the committee from 2013, volunteered to coordinate grants funding applications.

Along the way he took responsibility for “the 95th rehearsal” for last year’s Centenary Celebrations.

“Peter researched and displayed a detailed history of the Club from the women only beginnings to the broad cross-section we have today at our stateof-the-art Muller Park complex,” nominators Kate Colewell and Patricia Shanks wrote.

“Peter has been proactive in enhancing players skills, spending countless hours tutoring and mentoring. He lent his considerable talents acting as Project manager for the first-in-Australia purpose-built synthetic croquet courts and has bent his back when jobs have needed to be done,” they added.

Peter Heywood stands as a beacon in a club that refused to buckle under pressure.

Message from the greens – a beaut morning Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ IT is good to be back in this week when we celebrate all things good about our “one and free” country after last week’s results were “unavailable” – or was it that I got side-tracked – when I was leaving the club last week.

Our Sunday Combo Bowls AGM was “a distraction” – well at least that’s my excuse!

The 2022 Committee remains the same as previous – President Tom Gray, Vice President Graham Ross, Secretary Pete Ruzans, Treasurer Bryan O’Sullivan, Committee – Gary Huggins, Phil Knight, Mike Twohill, Mel Giddings, Gordon Scott and Peter Bennison.

With most of the restrictions now lifted, we should see a better year ahead and the Committee is looking at what may be possible as the year progresses.

Last Sundy 37 keen bowlers rolled up on the perfectly manicured green at the City patch, basking in the beaut Sundy morning, knowing this was the best

place to be.

Sue McAuley, Peter Bennison, Pete Ruzans d Renato Gazzola, Beryl Scott, Bryan O’Sullivan.

A ‘bought’ player traveling from Benora Point to join team O’Sullivan. Not a full-time bowler, he took some time to adapt to the green but under the guidance of the skip, managed to hold his own. Bryan, Renato and Beryl accumulated points with many well played shots, however they faulted on the last couple of ends allowing Pete and his side to claw out the win. In a very close game where each team won eight ends, the victors won 18-16.

Leo Balstrad, Julie Brown, Matt Quill d Paul Martin, Frank Armstrong and Cathy Edwards It was the battle of the leads – Leo not “swinging” this week and Paul in his first roll of the year.

Cathy, a new member of the squad showed Matt a thing or three, but the match-hardened “quill” proved effort and consistency pays off.

Julie and Frank played well but went down 11-9 in a tense match.

Ron Morrison, Karen Greenhalge, Col Cottee d John Kennedy, Gaye Cottee and Eric Satchell.

John Kennedy – most will know the name, but this John is still making his way to fame and fortune. He along with Gaye and Eric were facing what could be described as a strong combination and that’s how it panned out. Col, showing he will not be easily beaten, led his side to a comfortable win with an average of two shots per end.

Sue Armstrong, Helen Emblem, Peter Sinclair d Ron McAuley, Chris Strojny and Kevin Scott.

Kevin Scott is used to winning; Peter Sinclair, who really enjoys his day on the green is used to bowling very well. There was not much in it for either side in the early parts – 9-8 for Pete’s team at end 11 – however, as it happens, a five-shot end on 12 was enough to take the heart from team Kevin.

They competed hard but getting back a five shot deficit is not easy and Sue, Helen, and Peter finished with a flourish for a 20-12 win.

Shirley Marchant, Allan Stratford, Col Dover d Shirley Marchant, Cheryl Storch, Ruby Stockings.

Shirley was given the task of “swinging”. By her performance, she actually found it quite enjoyable! In another close encounter, at least until end 11, Ruby’s side was ahead by one but Col and Allan decided to up their game – and probably gifted the swinger more – scoring two-shot ends over the final four to wrap it up 17-11.

Gordon Lummis and Trish Gosper 17 d Gary Huggins and Mike Twohill 14.

Gary and Mike as a team? I guess all it takes is to be consistent throughout. At end 11 they were four shots to the good but the bowls stopped rolling under pressure applied by Gordon and Trish They scored nine times through the final five ends and paid to Gary and Mike. “What might have been” they said as the walls came tumbling down!

Doc Livingston and Roger Shirwin 17 d Steve Kelly and Gor-

don Scott 8 Two ‘young’ guns combined! On paper one would have backed Doc and Roger against Steve and Gordon and they did not disappoint.

Both teams played consistently over the first 10 ends until a flash of brilliant bowling gifted the young guns six shots on the next and they stepped through the final few ends.

Winners – Ron Morrison, Karen Greenhalge and Col Cottee with 25 points.

Runners up – Doc Livingston and Roger Shirwin with 19 points.

Resters – Sue McAuley, Paul Martin, Julie Brown, Matt Quin, Ron McAuley, and Cheryl Storch.

Bowler of the Year – early days, but so far we have Helen Emblem, Doc Livingston, Pete Ruzans and Allan Stratford on 6 points followed by Gaye Cottee, Gordon Lummis, Roger Shirwin and Peter Sinclair on 5.

Note – this Sunday is a “rest day” as Dubbo City Bowlo are hosting an event, so Sundy February 6 will be a no bowls morning for us.

Dubbo sits on top of the ladder ahead of Orange with Bathurst a point behind in third. A win at Orange's Wade Park in the last round at the end of February will ensure a home ground final for Dubbo; a loss and a victory

by Bathurst could mean they miss out on the decider altogether. g

Breaking Ducks crack eggs! Shelly really does have the Touch

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

DUBBO RSL Vets club captain Dave ‘Ned Kelly’ Sparkes played with members’ minds on Sunday, reading out the order in which swimmers finished, then taking great delight in listing the many who had broken their times.

It came to the delight of Brian and Brett Schloeffel and others cracking eggs on the barbecue. It was especially poignant for the ‘Schloeys’ who were gathered with fellow Ducks to farewell son and brother Brett.

Brett heads to new challenges in Melbourne where he will continue his study and practical application of MRI technology in the treatment of cancer.

There was plenty of chat about the upcoming trip to Nyngan for the Western Districts Championships. Some conceded it would be an “easy get for Valentines Day”!

Stars come out for cricket coaching clinic

By MACKENA DENNIS LOCAL boys and girls participated in Shaun Brown’s Cricket Coaching Camp recently at Bob Dowling Oval in Dubbo.

The coaching camps have been going strong for 35 years, with more than 50 Australian and international test cricket players helping to coach some 60,000 kids during the summer cricket camps.

The kids, aged from 7-15, learn through a mix of practical and theoretical training at each venue across the country, the team utilising the facilities kindly made available by Dubbo Touch Association for the two day camp. Coordinator Phil Turtle has been bringing the summer camp to Dubbo for five years, coaching the group of 44 boys and three girls this year through a three-station setup teaching them fielding techniques, observing their movements and reviewing them digitally in batting and bowling cages with video imaging technology Dartfish, and a station where they can practice their

skills in a short game amongst themselves.

Turtle started playing cricket 30 years ago, going on to become a teacher later in life.

“I love coming up here, the kids always want to learn from us and have a good time. My brother did a clinic with Shaun maybe eight years ago (and) suggested I should join over the summer holidays.

“When I’m not coaching with Shaun, I get out and do some umpiring at the different carnivals around the towns.”

Shaun Brown, the mastermind behind the organisation, is based in Melbourne.

He started the camps when a few local teams in his hometown of Traralgon, in the East Gippsland of regional Victoria, came to him to ask if he could coach a few of the younger boys back in 1987.

Brown used to play Premier Cricket for the South Melbourne Cricket Club when he was young which, coupled with the primary school teaching skills he was learning at the time, ended up taking him to become a cricket

coach hosting camps across five states in Australia, and even taking a few students overseas to England and New Zealand to play a couple games on the cricket grounds there.

The camps include the knowledge and expertise of selected International cricket players, with some of the appearances including Shane Watson, Merv Hughes, Len Pascoe who participated in the Dubbo and Orange camps this year, Nathan Bracket, Molly Strano, and even more big names.

To find out more information on the camps, and perhaps even sign your sons and daughters up for the next round, visit cricketcoaching.com.au.
