Grant windfall for local groups By TESS VAN LUBECK TWO local not-for-profit groups in Warren have recently been awarded grant funding by the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) for unique projects. Warren’s very own Chamber Music Festival and Rotary Club have both been fortunate enough to be named among the recent beneficiaries of the FRRR’s “Strengthening Rural Communities” (SRC) program. Established in 2019, the SRC program aims to improve the vitality and liveability of remote, rural and regional places across Australia, and has distributed more than $27.4 million Australia-wide for a variety of “small and vital” causes. Rotary president Tony Smith said the club is “stoked” with the news. “We’re always thinking about what we can do [for the community],” he said. “John Bourke came up with the idea of placing signs

From page 1 Dr Burns shared her knowledge in relation to law and the arts, particularly cultural IP, and processes around redressing the effects of past race-based policies on First Nations people of Australia. While visiting UTS, the young leaders also met the Manager of the Jumbunna Institute at UTS , Blanche Lake, who grew-up in Warren. They learned about the variety of pathways available to study at university and spent the afternoon in the recording studios at UTS learning how to use technology to make an impact through music and sound design. Charlie Gale was recorded singing an original WWA rap song — to be performed at the Christmas Street Party this Friday! While visiting Western Sydney University’s Badanami Centre, the
group also saw Aunty Barb Stanley’s and Uncle Don Dixon’s Wayilwan inspired art on display. Matt Taylor and Adrian Atkins Indigenous Outreach Officers with WSU, shared their stories and the challenges of university life but also about the many networks of support for university students. Dr Thomas Feinberg facilitated the opportunity for the Dreaming Drifters to record an original Warraan Widji Arts song at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music after meeting Zoey through the University of Sydney’s Tahgara Program in July. Kallie, Zoey, and Jerome were recorded performing a song about the Beemunnel which was composed with the help of Graham Burns and based on the stories shared by our local Elders. JMC Academy offered a personal
tour of its high-end recording studios and the group caught-up with Sam McNally — who played with pop legend, John Farnham — and has also previously performed with the Dreaming Drifters at Warren’s Christmas Street Party. The group also had the opportunity to visit the Museum of Contemporary Art and the NSW Art Gallery. A big highlight, however, was to attend “Hamilton — the Musical”.
NSW farmers feeding the future
achieving its goal of being a $30 billion dollar industry by 2030, in spite of the challenges it continues to face. “Dry seasonal conditions inland and livestock prices presented a real challenge over summer for many farmers, but despite all odds our sector remained a force to be reckoned with on the global stage,” Mr Martin said. “In 2023-24, livestock and cotton exports reached new record highs, and the gross value of production for farmed oysters grew six per cent to $52 million – its highest level in history. “Every single day, our farmers have stepped up to the plate to keep clothes on our backs and
food on our forks, no matter what, and these numbers tell that story,” he added. While the sector still faced many challenges, Mr Martin said the opportunities and potential of the NSW agriculture sector were plentiful. “Many farmers in the south have faced dry conditions and frost this year, while those in the north of the state, some experiencing flooding, are on the front line of major biosecurity threats like cattle ticks and fi re ants,” Mr Martin said. “High input costs are also challenging farmers across NSW, yet they continue to take great leaps and strides in securing our food security for generations to come,” he concluded.
FARMERS have beaten the odds to lift NSW’s agricultural production to its third highest level in history, according to a new report released by the state government recently. Despite challenging seasonal conditions during the fi rst half of the year, NSW’s agricultural sector recorded a gross value of production of just over $20 billion in 2023-24, with the state’s agricultural exports reaching $11 billion in value over the twelve-month period. NSW Farmers president Xavier Martin said it was pleasing to see the sector was well on its way to Central West Slopes and Plains area: Partly cloudy. Slight chance of a shower.

By TESS VAN LUBECK RAISING awareness around domestic violence against women and children, CatholicCare Wilcannia-Forbes and Mission Australia hosted a White Ribbon Day event last Friday. This year alone, 100 women and children have been killed due to this continuing crisis; equating to approximately a member of our community every three days. To reflect on this issue, community members and representatives from Catholiccare, Mission Australia Headspace, WDVCAS, and NSW Local Police, came together to share a barbecue at the old Warren Bowling Club building. The purpose of the event was also to promote awareness and continue the conversation around domestic violence, with the attendees hearing about how to recognise and respond to this social epidemic. The campaign also supports helping those who are most affected get the help they need so they don’t become another name on the
“Red Heart Campaign” page that memorialises those who have lost their lives to domestic violence.

Paddling Pathways program helps local youth to thrive said the six-day program was “good exercise”.
By SHARON BONTHUYS DURING the last school holidays, a unique community outreach program introduced a group of young people from Trangie and Narromine to the Macquarie-Wambuul River, fostering cultural immersion, community trust-building, and mental health resilience among participants as they paddled in kayaks all the way from Dubbo to Warren. Over six days, the group of 12 young people and their adult program coordinators paddled approximately 200 kilometres along the Healing Paddle route, learning a lot about the river, the work of fi rst responders, and themselves along the way. The Paddling Pathways Program was made possible by THRIV3 (pronounced “Thrive”), a local non-profit organisation dedicated to fostering transformative change in communities. The name is an acronym for “Transforming Hearts through Respect, Innovation, Vitality”, through the three (3) pillars of education, empowerment and engagement. Youth from Trangie, Narromine, and Moama participated in the free school holiday paddle, said THRIV3 founder and director Pat Skinner. “This program is for youth aged between 13 and 17 and the idea is to connect kids from rural communities with the work of government, emergency services, local trades and agricultural businesses,” Pat explained. “A lot of the kids in the program may not be able to afford it or have the ability to do it, so we give them the opportunity,” he added. The program was provided free to participants, funded by THRIV3 with the support of sponsors.
Bonding with emergency services THE group paddled from Dubbo to Warren over the course of almost a week, stopping on riverbanks along the way where a range of on-shore activities would be undertaken. Paddling in groups, four adults would accompany six young people on the river in stretches. When they stopped

in Narromine during the journey to Warren, the group had paddled from Brummagen about 30 kilometres away, and were welcomed by a host of local emergency services who held an expo. Pat said the expo helped show the young people what emergency services did, potential career and volunteering pathways, and to show them that fi rst responders were there to help them. “Some of these kids come from backgrounds where they may not trust emergency services, and [the fi rst responders] are here to alleviate that,” Pat explained. Participating groups included the Rural Fire Service, Volunteer Rescue Association NSW, State Emergency Service, Community Corrections, Police, Fire and Rescue NSW, as well as representatives from the Defence Forces. Teachers, health workers, tradies and other interested parties also attended.
Helping young people thrive BORN in Narromine and raised in Trangie, Pat says he gets a great deal of satisfaction giving back to the community through the THRIV3 organisation he founded. “It’s good to see the change in the kids, from possibly having an anti-social attitude to life to smiling, having a laugh, and enjoying the journey,” he said. “It’s a great opportunity for them to get out and see a bit of their own country. We do a lot of Cultural activities as well.” The program supports young people from a diverse range of gender identities and cultural backgrounds, with a focus on addressing mental health, teaching resilience and coping mechanisms, while teaching the Cultural significance of things through “Caring for Country”. The young people also learned about water ecology, how the river flows and water-safe ways and pathways, Pat said. Prior to starting the paddle
in Dubbo, participants undertook an intensive training session where they learned to use the kayaks safely and to help others in an emergency on the water. “They went through a whole training session where they learnt how to capsize and safely recover, and we did swim tests, and taught them how to rescue one another [if needed] so they would be able to perform a full rescue by themselves,” he explained.
What did the kids think? KALEB, 16, said he liked everything about the program and enjoyed being on the river. “It’s good to learn new stuff,” he said. Tawhiao, 14, said the program was a great opportunity for local young people to learn new things. “We’ve never done this before and it’s taken us out of our comfort zones. There’s still so much more to learn,” he added. Charlie, 15, also enjoyed the program which he described as tough but fun. “It’s getting easier along the way,” he said. Kye, 14, enjoyed the program’s camping, swimming and paddling, while Nash, 13,
A WEEK of travelling on the river was tiring but stimulating, Pat reflected. “These kids overcame a lot of battles while paddling along the river,” he said. “They were defi nitely tired by the end of the week but, in themselves, they were proud. They also understood the adults that were their mentors for the week were also proud of them,” he added. He said that when the young people were collected by their parents at the end of the journey, they were proud to have overcome the challenges they faced along the way. While the learnings from the trip are yet to be evaluated, Pat said that he personally had learned a lot from the experience. “I learned that a lot of country kids are resilient and can be pushed beyond normality, which is good, but they also just want to get in and give it a go, no matter what it is, due to the lack of options they have out this way,” he said. “The other thing I learned is that there is a real keen interest in kids becoming instructors. We’ve now pushed on from the Paddling Pathways program, and are building a traineeship program.” Earlier this week, following recent try-outs, THRIV3 announced on social media that five young people are set to embark on the THRIV3 Trainee Paddling Program 2024-2025, with two instructor trainees. The non-profit has also been officially registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-Profits Commission (ACNC), backdated to January 2024, which means that any donations made to the organisation since then are now tax-deductible. THRIV3 aims to hold the Paddling Pathways program on the Macquarie-Wambuul at least annually, so if you’d like to know more about the possibility of your child participating in a future paddle from Dubbo to Warren, reach out to THRIV3 via their website.

A MESSAGE FROM NSW RURAL FIRE SERVICE COMMISSIONER, ROB ROGERS AFSM
T
he NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS), which I have the privilege of leading, is the world’s largest volunteer firefighting organisation, with more than 70,000 dedicated members working tirelessly to protect lives and property across the State. When combined with the expertise of Fire and Rescue NSW, Forestry Corporation, and the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, the bush fire management resources available through the NSW Government form a robust and highly capable force. These resources are a vital line of defence, standing ready to assist communities during their time of need. However, no amount of preparation can substitute for individual and community vigilance. After several years of
Commissioner Rob Rogers has served the NSW Rural Fire Service for 45 years, beginning as a brigade volunteer in 1979. A holder of the Australian Fire Service Medal (AFSM), he has been Commissioner since July 2020. PHOTO: NSW RFS
wetter-than-average conditions, it is critical that we do not allow complacency to take hold as we continue through the 2024/25 bush fire season. Every resident should take a moment to assess their personal risk. Ask yourself – am I, or is my property, at risk of bush or grass fires? The reality is simple – if you live, work or travel near bushland or grasslands, you are in a fire risk area. The next step is to determine your level of preparedness. Our research indicates that only 70pc of residents in bush fire-prone areas have a plan in place, and of those, only half have actively prepared their homes. This is a concerning statistic. The RFS strongly encourages all residents to develop a bush fire survival plan. Creating a plan is a straight-forward but crucial step in safeguarding your home, and loved ones. It can take as little as five minutes to start, yet the benefits can be life-saving.
For those who already have a plan, it is equally important to review and update it regularly. Changes in family circumstances, property conditions, or the presence of pets and livestock can significantly impact your preparedness. Bush fire safety is not something to ‘set and forget.’ Comprehensive resources and stepby-step guidance are available on the RFS website at rfs.nsw.gov.au. I strongly encourage every resident to use these tools to enhance their understanding of bush fire risks and improve their readiness. This bush fire season, my hope is that all communities across NSW will remain safe and well. However, preparedness is your greatest defence against the unpredictability of bush and grass fires. Let us work together to protect lives, property, and the communities we hold dear.

Warren in line Come all ye faithful to Carols by Candlelight in Macquarie Park for accelerated disaster recovery payments By SHARON BONTHUYS WARREN Shire Council is one of 33 regional NSW councils set to receive upfront natural disaster recovery payments through new funding arrangements from the NSW Government. The councils have signed, or are in the process of signing, tripartite agreements with Transport for NSW and the NSW Reconstruction Authority that will provide accelerated funding to enable repairs to roads and transport infrastructure damaged by natural disasters. Before the tripartite agreements were introduced, councils had to spend their own money to undertake disaster-related repairs and then claim the costs back through the Australian and NSW governments’ disaster recovery funding arrangements. In many local government areas, this placed a heavy strain on council fi nances while those councils waited for claims to be assessed, approved and paid out. The tripartite agreements will significantly reduce pressure on councils to fund disaster recovery work upfront, and should mean faster repairs for communities and better collaboration between state and local government agencies, according to the NSW Government.
Benefits for Warren Shire WARREN Shire Council has been placed in tranche three and is in the process of signing the tripartite agreement, said Sylvester Otieno, Divisional Manager Engineering Services. “The agreement would ensure we get paid before, during and after completing flood recovery works, thus better cashflow for us,” Mr Otieno explained. “In the current arrangement, we are required to use our own money to implement the flood recovery works then claim at the end,” he added. “The works take a while to implement, then there is a lengthy and rigorous claim process before any payment is made. The impact of all these is that we might exhaust our funds and reserves before we get paid.” The new arrangements mean that, once signed up, participating councils can access funding at the start of each stage of reconstruction work. It is an important step forward for Warren Shire to be able to access funding in advance, given flood recovery works alone from 2021 and 2022 cost over $13 million. “[That’s] more than double our rate revenue,” Mr Otieno concluded.
What the politicians say WITH more natural disasters impacting parts of Western NSW in recent weeks, the ability of
councils to access accelerated funding for repairs to road and transport infrastructure has never been more important. Earlier this month, Member for Barwon, Roy Butler MP, whose electorate spans 44 per cent of the landmass of NSW and is the largest in the state, highlighted feedback about natural disasters in parliament. “According to the NSW Energy and Water Ombudsman, almost every [local government area in the state] has been included in a flood or a bushfire disaster declaration at least once between July of 2018 and October of 2023,” he told Parliament on November 12. “A lot of the feedback that came back from communities impacted by natural disasters revolved around poor communication between agencies and the community, a lack of preparedness and lack of adequacy and timeliness of the recovery funding. That was the consensus from all communities, not just those in remote areas,” he added. It’s important to note that only 33 councils in NSW will be able to access accelerated funding under the current tripartite agreements. Of those, Warren, Lachlan, Narrabri, Walgett, Coonamble, and Brewarrina are in the Barwon electorate. Parliamentary secretary for disaster recovery Janelle Saffin, appointed to the role in August 2023, represents the people of Lismore and surrounds who were severely impacted by that city’s 2022 floods. “This is a great example of the NSW Government working with local communities to get them back on their feet quickly after a disaster,” Ms Saffin said of the tripartite agreements. “Clearing fi nancial and some of the administrative hurdles will make an enormous difference,” she added. “The feedback we have had from councils who have already signed up to these agreements has been positive and we look forward to building on this success so we can help communities rebuild faster after natural disasters,” emergency services minister, Jihad Dib, said. “Following a natural disaster, road infrastructure is one of the things most affected and needing to be repaired quickly so communities can reconnect, and goods and services can start moving again,” NSW minister for regional transport and roads, Jenny Aitchison, said. “Prior to the terrible natural disasters in 2022, only $190 million a year was allocated for disaster recovery for roads. Under these new agreements, we have already seen more than $304 million in fast-tracked funding roll out to repair roads and transport infrastructure damaged in natural disasters,” Minister Aitchison concluded.

Grant windfall for local groups From page 1 “Creating activities that bring people, and money, back into these towns, is one way that communities are working to remain sustainable in the face of this changing social and economic landscape,” FRRR Place Portfolio Lead, Jill Karena said recently. “Warren’s ‘Turn Right for a Night’ Tourism Sign Project is a great example of this. The local Rotary Club will use [its] $10,000 grant to promote tourism and boost the local economy by installing signage at key locations to encourage drivers to visit the region.” The FRRR operates on the idea that each community and group is different and allows recipients freedom in how they invest the funding. The Warren Chamber Music Festival has previously been supported by the FRRR on several occasions and was lucky to once again secure funding. On behalf of the committee, founder and artistic director Frances Evans expressed her delight that the festival was once again able to go ahead in May with the support of FRRR and other local backers. “We are so grateful [and] I am so thrilled to be a member of a wonderful committee which is working hard to present one of rural Australia’s most exciting music festival events ever!” she said. Starting in 2021 and running every second year, the week-long festival caters to a broad audience by presenting a range of musi-
cal experiences that aren’t often available to country Australia. “There are a number of fi rsts that we will deliver next year,” Frances explained.

“The fi rst ever pairing of regional food and wine with music in one spectacular evening event at the Warren Racecourse. A world premiere of a Warren Chamber Music Festival commissioned work by Adelaide based composer Anne Cawrse, for Clarinet Quartet and String Ensemble – an Australia fi rst! “Also, we are facilitating rural Australia’s fi rst-ever live and digital immersive commemoration performance based on a location’s true service history, remembering the service and sacrifice of local personnel since World War I to the present,” she added. “And fi nally, our very own SING Warren community choir will perform with the internationally acclaimed New Zealand String Quartet,” Frances concluded. The festival’s grant will go towards coordinating the travel and accommodation arrangements of the acclaimed musicians and composers from across the southern hemisphere, so that the festival is a truly world-class event. Keep an eye out for these upcoming projects that will be sure to improve the vitality of Warren, and bring music-lovers and holidaymakers to town.
Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by MARK K COULTON, Federal ral Member for Parkes arkes
Call to continue funding Royal Far West LAST week in Parliament, I moved a motion urging the Labor Government to continue funding the Royal Far West’s National Paediatric Telecare Service (NPTS) which is delivering crucial paediatric services to country children via schools. In 2019, Royal Far West received $19.7 million in funding from the former Coalition Government to establish the NPTS, which is being delivered in 143 schools and 56 early learning centres across rural and remote Australia and provides children with access to various clinicians including speech pathologists, clinical psychologists, occupational therapists and social workers via telehealth. While I understand that telehealth is not a replacement for face-to-face care, this service is playing a big role in helping to fi ll a much-needed gap, and close the gap, for rural children unable to access paediatric services due to
a lack of specialists, cost and travel restraints. Funding for this service runs out in June next year and there is currently no bucket of funding available for this type of program. Without funding, it will not be able to continue which would be detrimental to the thousands of children this service supports each year. We cannot afford to let these children fall behind if they don’t get the support they need. I also spoke on my colleague, Member for Mallee, Dr Anne Webster’s motion calling on the Minister for Health to advance rural generalist pathways in medicine, nursing and allied health, to address dire workforce shortages.
Carinda disaster support I’M pleased that the Carinda community will now be able to access much-needed support to assist with the clean-up following the violent storm that ripped through the town on Sunday, November 17, causing significant damage to buildings. Assistance will be provided to Walgett Shire Council to help with the clean-up and the restoration of critical infrastructure and public assets through the jointly funded Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements. Support will also be avail-
able for eligible residents to access emergency accommodation, replace essential household contents and undertake repairs to return their house to a safe, habitable standard.
Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton, recently met with representatives from Royal Far West in Parliament, prior to moving his Private Members’ Business motion calling for continued funding for the group.
Social media age limit legislated A NUMBER of bills passed through Parliament during the fi nal sitting week of the year last week, including legislation to enforce an age limit of 16 for social media. I’ve been contacted by lots of people concerned about this legislation, mostly around privacy. I also have similar concerns, but this legislation has been passed after the Coalition negotiated changes which strengthened rules around privacy. Under these changes, people cannot be compelled to provide Digital ID or government-issued identity documents such as drivers licences or passports. The legislation also prohibits platforms from using information collected for age checking purposes for any other purpose, unless explicitly agreed to by the individual. The new system won’t be perfect — no laws are. Some kids will get around the system, just like people flout speeding or underage drinking laws. But hopefully it will make a real difference for Australian families in protecting children from online harm.
Aged care bill passes ANOTHER significant piece of legislation that passed was the Aged Care Bill. The Coalition worked hard in negotiating with the Government to ensure these reforms provide dignity and clarity for older Australians. We pushed for further changes to the legislation to ensure small, rural, regional and remote aged care homes were able to be supported through this process. We secured an additional $300 million Aged-Care Capital Assistance Programme round, specifically for homes in rural and remote locations. This funding can be used for accommodation for workers, construction, or renovations to the aged care home. We know that in the regions, many aged care homes struggle to fi nd staff to meet
the Government staffing mandates. That is why we moved an amendment to allow enrolled nurses, and registered nurses via telehealth, to be utilised within these mandates as well. However, the Labor Government opposed this important amendment. The Government also opposed our amendment to give providers a year to adapt to this significant package of reforms. We know small, regional, rural and remote providers in particular need more time to adjust to these changes and the Coalition will keep fighting for a genuine transition timeline. We’ll also continue to fight for sensible changes that seek to ensure aged care providers in regional areas will not be forced to close their doors because of this Government’s inflexible policies.

Wetlands inspire largest art exhibition to be held in Warren By SHARON BONTHUYS THE largest art exhibition ever to be held in Warren starts today, inspired by the world-famous local wetlands and their abundant wildlife. A collaboration between the Warren Museum and Gallery (WAM) and regional artsworkers Fresh Arts and Friends, the Macquarie Wetlands Art Exhibition features 65 original artworks by 20 artists from across the region, and will be on display until the end of January, said WAM publicity officer, Ruth Cant. Artworks will also be available for sale. Artists featured in the exhibition hail from Warren, Gilgandra, Yeoval, Dubbo and beyond, including Jude Fleming, Rachel Cant, Julie Whitely, Leanne Watt, Judy Shaloub, Leanne Tremain, Denise Gough, Lyndal Jane, Nicole Holmes, Barbara Preston, Dianne Saunders, Anna Minney, Suzie Foran, Annette Ferguson, Anne Brandon, Sandra Gaffney, Karen Hyland, Jen Moore, Susan Yaghjian, and Alison Francis. The exhibition title draws its name from the multiple
wetlands associated with the Macquarie River, and the diverse locations from which the participating artists came, said group spokesperson Sandra Gaffney. A visit to the region over a year ago, and ongoing collaboration with Warren artists Jude Fleming and Leanne Watt inspired the exhibition. “We decided that since only nine of our [Fresh Arts] artists had visited the wetlands, that we’d expand it and make it ‘Macquarie Wetlands’ rather than just Macquarie Marshes. That way, we’d include the Narromine Wetlands and any other wetlands that are associated with the Macquarie River,” Sandra explained. “We also decided to make it ‘Fresh Arts and Friends’ to include any other artists who wanted to participate,” she added. The official opening of the exhibition takes place this Saturday afternoon, December 7, and is open to the public to attend. The free event will feature a musical performance by founder and Artistic Director of the esteemed Warren Chamber Music M usi Festival, Frances Ev-
ans, who is also Warren’s 2024 Citizen of the Year. Local landholder Tony Wass will deliver an address about the world-famous Macquarie Marshes, and a delicious afternoon tea will also be served. The exhibition and art gallery will also be free to attend during its run over the summer. It’s well worth the drive to discover the delights of the WAM. While the gallery is free, the museum does attract a small entrance fee if visitors wish to access that part of the facility, Ruth said. “Hopefully people will come and see how amazing the venue is, because it’s pretty impressive for a little town like Warren,” Ruth said. Sandra Gaffney said she hopes the exhibition will help visitors discover the wonderful, unique properties of wetland environments, including reeds, still water, fauna, flora, and bird life. “We just want to celebrate our environment and our connection with it,” Sandra said. Further details about the exhibition are available from the WAM and in Classifieds.

FAITH MATTERS
Hope! By ANNITA CAMPBELL, WARREN PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IMAGINE someone predicting with confidence that you were going to be born, long before you actually did arrive on earth? This is what happened with Jesus. Seven hundred years before he showed-up as a baby in Bethlehem, the prophet Isaiah wrote with accuracy, about how he would come. He also wrote with detail about who this child would be. It is the wonder of Isaiah’s prophecy that is celebrated as we light the fi rst candle of Advent. This was no ordinary human being that was coming. He was the King of Heaven. The Christmas carol, “Once is Royal David’s City” mentions this. It is the reason this fi rst candle is the regal colour purple. Jesus was also THE ONE who would bring everlasting, joyful hope to the weary world he was entering. “A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices” is a favourite line from the carol. The 53rd chapter of Isaiah’s Book outlines the relationship between Jesus and us. Isaiah says: “Jesus was crushed for our sins, the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds, we are healed” As Christmas comes in 2024AD, may you know the hope, peace, and healing that this long-awaited King brings.

Meet our student award winners
WE’RE pleased to introduce another round of award winners from Warren Central School. Students of the week include Olivia Bell, Alice Lovelock, Dakota Rose, Lukas Jenkins, Matilda Callaghan and Charlie Hocking. Our Assistant Principal Award winners are David Milgate and Nicholas Parsons. Well done, students!
Polyglot performance was fantastic!
POLYGLOT Theatre artists have spent Term Four on Wailwan Country, collaborating with Warren Central School and Warraan Widji Arts. The project, Totems, is an interactive experience that is being developed to tour schools around the country, particularly in regional and remote areas. Totems is led by First Nations writer Blayne Welsh, a Wailwan man, and designer and puppet-maker Tamara Rewse. Through drawing, making with simple materials, and creative play, the primary students have developed a large-scale outdoor performance celebrating a local totem, the Dhigarrbila (echidna). Everything has been created by the children, including the costumes and the large feature puppets – a powerful opportunity for them to share their story and their Culture in their own way. The Totems Community Performance took place last Friday morning, November 29, in the school hall, followed by morning tea.

Carinda and Marthaguy Roads to receive safety upgrades WARREN Shire Council has been awarded significant state government funding to undertake road safety upgrades at two high-risk sections of the local road network. Critical road safety improvements will now be made to sections of Carinda Road and Marthaguy Road, both of which have a history of serious injury and fatal crashes. At just over $8 million, the funding for these improvements is part of the Towards Zero Safer Roads Program, a key element of the 2026 Road Safety Action Plan which aims to reduce road trauma and improve safety across NSW by addressing high-risk
locations. The Carinda Road and Marthaguy Road projects will focus on improving infrastructure and implementing speed management measures to prevent further accidents and enhance road safety for all users. Both projects are expected to be completed by June 2025. “We are pleased to receive this important funding, which will help make Carinda and Marthaguy Roads safer for our local community,” said Warren Shire Council’s General Manager, Gary Woodman. “These improvements will reduce the risk of accidents and save lives, particular-
ly on stretches of road with a history of serious crashes. We look forward to seeing the positive impact these upgrades will have on road safety in our region,” he added.
Carinda Road improvements f The NSW Government has approved $3.949 million for safety upgrades on Carinda Road, including a $450,000 contribution from Council. The project will target an 11.9-kilometre stretch of the road starting 64 kilometres from the intersection with Industrial Access Road. Key improvements will include:
f Shoulder widening to at least half a metre for sealed shoulders. f Creation of a four-metrewide traversable clear zone on the roadside. f Line marking for improved visibility. f Installation of reflective guideposts for enhanced night-time safety. f Comprehensive road safety audit to assess effectiveness and ensure long-term safety.
Marthaguy Road f A total of $4.290 million has been allocated for upgrades on Marthaguy Road, with a $450,000 contribution from Council. The 9.85-kilometre
section starts 12 kilometres from the intersection with the Oxley Highway, and will see the following improvements: f Shoulder widening to at least half a metre on straight sections and 2.5 metres along bends. f Installation of curve alignment markers to improve visibility on sharp turns. f Flexible barriers along bends to reduce the impact of crashes. f Line marking and reflective guideposts for added safety. f Road safety audit to ensure the effectiveness of the changes.

Mudgee Cup preview
By COLIN HODGES
late Ray Bradley had been a leading jockey in the western districts before riding with success in Sydney and later becoming a trainer. Taitolio led the field in the 1850 metres Mudgee Cup however Mon Raphael given a cosy run by the then Bathurst based Dale Jeffries was poised to strike at the top of the straight. After breaking clear, Mon Raphael lasted to win by a short half head from the fast fi nishing Handsome Heir (Brian Wood) with Van Dieman Star fi lling third place. Another of the three
IN his role as a mentor for apprentice riders, former jockey Dale Jeffries will be back on familiar territory when officiating on Friday at the Mudgee Cup meeting. During his very successful jockey career, Jeffries won the Cup at every track in the central districts including the 1986 Mudgee Cup on Mon Raphael, owned and trained by Ray Bradley from Hawkesbury. Formerly from Walgett, the
Mudgee Cups won by Dale Jeffries was on the Ross Lomax, Rylstone-trained Talee Man in 1997. Over the following 10 months Talee Man also won the Orange Cup and Wellington Cup with Dale Jeffries in the saddle. Usually with only a small team in work, Ross Lomax has produced numerous good winners from his Rylstone stables including at Randwick and recently won with a relative newcomer, Grins, at Narromine. For many years Dale Jeffries has lived at Parkes and often rides trackwork for his
wife, successful trainer Sharon Jeffries. On the day Mon Raphael won the Mudgee Cup 38 years ago, Dubbo trainer Peter Nestor won the 1200 metres Maiden Handicap with Wingewarra Red owned by John Roser and Greg Roser from Dubbo. Ridden by top jockey Harry Troy, Wingewarra Red came from off the pace for a six lengths win over Ti Mat and Smooth Flyer. Peter Nestor continues to be an outstanding trainer and recently won the Dubbo Gold Cup with Sneak Preview and the Newcastle Highway
with Blue Guitar while Harry Troy formerly from Walgett spent 27 years in Macau as a jockey, apprentices mentor and race caller.
Another notable achievement at the Mudgee Cup meeting was Apprentice jockey Paul Sylvester riding a winning treble, Tundra Star, Aleetun and Nebo Park.
Prizemoney for the 1986 Mudgee Cup was $5,000 while the 2024 Big Dance Eligibility-Mudgee Cup is worth $75,000.

Warren Amateur Swimming Club makes a splash By TIM WHITELEY OVER a number of years, Warren Amateur Swimming Club has been punching well above its weight, producing several superstars who have gone on to represent at regional, state and national levels. It’s no surprise then that when they held their Macquarie Valley Courier annual carnival on Sunday, a total of 190 competitors entered from from as far afield as Cobar, Coolah, Coonabarabran, Dubbo, Gilgandra, Gular, Narromine, Nyngan, Tamworth, Tottenham, Walgett and Wellington. Held at the newly-refurbished Warren War Memorial Swimming Pool, this was one of the biggest carnivals seen this year in the entire Western Region. A total of 40 participants were from the Warren stable, and, although early in the season, the hard work done at training under coach Wendy was evident with many of the results going the locals’ way. This ensured that the kiosk staff were kept busy with lolly sales as winners spent some well-deserved prize money at the facility. Ronnie Tandy-Bell from the Wellington club was one of the stars of the day, breaking four records in Multi-Class events (50-metre Freestyle, 50-metre Backstroke, 50-metre Breaststroke, and 50-metre Butterf ly). Izabelle Kelly from the Orana club also set three records in the Multi-Class (50-metre Freestyle, 50-metre Breaststroke and 50-metre Butterfly). Josh Spinks from the Coolah club also broke the 100-metre Freestyle record in the fastest up-
and-back ever seen in his age group, in what all competitors suggested was a very fast pool, despite all the rain preceding the event. An event of this size takes a massive effort from all club members and committee to run, so credit went to all who assisted in any way. The community also got behind our kids while event sponsors, Macquarie Valley Couriers, AFF, Wardi Insurance and Brokerage, Jim Fenton, Nutrien Wilson Russ, Macquarie Toyota, Three Rivers Machinery, Hatton Partnership, Warren Services Club, Brett and Donna Brouff Earthmoving, Western Rivers Vets, Uncle Clarries, Nutrien Ag Red Hill, Queensland Cotton,and Egelabra Merino Stud, were also acknowledged. Warren Shire Council was also recognised for the fantastic new facilities, the donation of entry fees on the day, and the hard-working staff at the pool. Congratulations to Ryan Smith, who was the winner of our 100 Club fundraiser, who kindly donated his winnings back to the swim club. If you believe in karma, Ryan’s daughter also won the “Guess the Lollies in the Lolly Jar” contest, which should keep sugar levels high and some PBs in the Smith household this week. At the time of writing this report, we are also expecting a price rise with potatoes in line with the “Eastern Potato Market Indicator” report, mainly due to the large consumption of chips and scallops purchased at the pool on Sunday! If you have not tasted one of these delicacies lately, be sure to grab one off Jack next time you drive past!
