Our ‘swan’ returns World-class ballerina to perform at Glasshouse By SUE PATERICK TO watch ballerina Lucinda Worthing-Shore perform her magic at the Glasshouse Port Macquarie in early September will make the whole Macleay Valley proud, especially her family. Lucinda’s hard work and determination and the support of her family to become a worldclass ballerina has been a winning combination that will see her dance in three different ballets with the Sydney City Youth Ballet. “We are performing a triple bill at the Glasshouse and I have three small parts in the three different ballets,” Lucinda said. “My main role is in the Giselle in Act Two, where I play the role of Myrtha.” The ballet is a love story between Giselle and her lover Albrecht. Lucinda plays Myrtha, the leader of a group of supernatural women who have all been wronged by their lovers and have died before their wedding day. “Myrtha is a fascinating and strong character to me,” Lucina explained. “She is the fiercest character in Giselle.”

The Sydney City Youth Ballet will also be performing Paquita, where Lucinda will feature in a small solo performance. Powerhouse, a contemporary piece by Lucas Jervies, will be the third ballet Lucinda dances in on the night. As these ballets are all excerpts from professional ballets performed by companies all over the world, the level of difficulty is extremely high. “Our artistic director is the Australian Ballet’s longest serving principal ballerina, Lucinda Dunn OAM,” Lucinda said. “So you can imagine the production will be incredible!” Lucinda has just returned from Hong Kong where she competed in the Genée International Ballet Competition. “I was lucky enough to be selected as one of only 20 Australians,” she said. “They select students from around the world who sat the Royal Academy of Dance Advanced 2 exam this year and scored with the highest marks.” • Continued Page 6

A photo taken in the 1920s. Harry showed this to Aboriginal people during his interviews and research from 1973 to 1987

History finds new meaning By BARBARA DYER WITH $10 in his pocket, and a backpack full of dreams, 22-year-old British anthropologist Howard ‘Harry’ Creamer was not the obvious choice to be sent off to search for remote Aboriginal sites when he landed in Australia in 1972. The British migrant’s previous career experience was teaching biology in Ghana and, like many other young people in the early ’70s, he’d arrived Down Under following a backpacking pilgrimage across Southeast Asia. He had never studied Australia, let alone its Indigenous population, but an ad in the Sydney Morning Herald back in 1973 changed all that. Now at his home in Port Macquarie, Harry looks back to that time 45 years ago, and more recently to June this year, when he again was called in to study and record Aboriginal history in the Macleay Valley. Harry says the history of the Macleay Valley, and the Aboriginal history, is our shared history of the Mid North Coast. “If you don’t know history, then you lack a sense of identity,” says Harry who, though retired six years ago, is continuing to archive local Aboriginal history. “From 1973 until 1987, I recorded Aboriginal history, particularly those living in Bellbrook, Kempsey and Armidale, recording a number of sites in the Macleay Valley from the tablelands to the coast,” says Harry in a room where desks are cluttered with books and photos from that time. “I worked with the elders of the Thangatti tribal people, with Thangatti man Ray Kelly from Bellbrook. “He gave me an introduction to the Aboriginal people of the Macleay Valley. “Together we were to cover the whole of

Local historian Harry Creamer has the opportunity to show his work to a much wider audience NSW, interviewing Aboriginal people, finding how much they knew and how much the remembered, recording sites of importance in the landscape. “I had a pilot’s licence so we would fly as far as Broken Hill.” In the Macleay area they recorded about 40 sites including ancient initiation sites and mission cemeteries dating from 1885. There were also the sites of massacres by early settlers. More than 45 years after the work began, Harry’s expertise was called on again in June this year when he was invited to join a culture camp to East Kunderang Homestead as part of the National Parks and Wildlife Service Aboriginal Parks Partnership program.

“The aim is to reconnect Aboriginal communities with country, that is now national parks land,” said Harry. Of the original 40 sites mapped, there are those which are well protected and some, not so. Some are in national parks, others in state forests and are virtually inaccessible, or on farms. “It might be a burial site or a hill or a mountain itself,” Harry said. “Many are historic post contact, including the East Kunderang Homestead with its stockmans’ huts, and quarters which is open to the public. “The homestead was set up by the Fitzgeralds who employed a lot of Aboriginal people and whose descendants are still alive.” In June, Harry took along his reports, tape

recordings, photographs and maps from the 1970s. “I read from my notebooks and played my cassette tape recordings to the descendants. In 1970s I’d shown the elders a black and white photograph taken in 1920 and some immediately identified that they were the children in the photo. “I played the tapes in June and the people loved seeing and hearing the voices of their ancestors recorded in the ‘70s. They were spellbound by the tapes.” The old faded black and white photo stirs strong emotions in Harry. “In this photo, you can see strong, fit capable people who are crying out for respect. And yet, that’s not what they got. “I feel empathy and a sense of loss.” Harry is relieved that his work that has largely languished in a dozen cardboard boxes; a wealth of information, is about to be brought into the digital age, archived and kept forever. “Much was handed over in 1987 but still, in those boxes are records of the stories I heard; photos of physical remains – cemeteries, stones and circles. “We can have a high degree of trust in Indigenous oral history – the Dreamtime stories. “I’d like to think that once the photos are digitised and my notes archived, people will be able to Google this body of information.” He said his work in June was ‘very personal’. “I never thought I would have the opportunity again to be part of such a program and I now have a greater sense of urgency to see my early records preserved; empowering Indigenous people with the knowledge of who they are and where they are from.” With some 2000 slides to identify for the archives, Harry Creamer’s work is not finished yet.

Federal fall-out to come

LAST week we saw how the Australian Government can be thrown into disruption and chaos by a group of unelected people only interested in retaining their personal status and power. They saw Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull as a major stumbling block to achieving their ambitions and selected Peter Dutton, the Member for Dickson as their “inside” man to facilitate Turnbull’s overthrow. For most Australians, most of whom never imagined that our government could be disintegrated, in such a short time, into a state of disarray as often happens in other countries, it was a wake-up call. Permanent damage has been done to Peter Dutton’s reputation and status that will never be fully recovered even though Scott Morrison has returned him to his former portfolio. Australia has “lost” a Foreign Minister who was by far the best in this position in Coalition Governments of the last fifty years. “Wounds” have been created in the Liberal party that may take generations to heal. The latest Newspoll shows that the Government’s popularity is heading for the basement.

But this may not be the end of the damage caused by last week’s debacle. While the National Party have, in the main, kept out of it they will no doubt feel its damaging effects when they come to select their candidates for the next elections. The National Party have a very good, time-tested system where local branches in an electorate come together to do this but the cooperation that existed in the past may have largely disappeared. In every “National’s” electorate there will be those who support the city-based ultraconservatives and those, mainly in small business, salary earners and farmers who would much rather select a candidate on their merits. This divide is particularly worrying here on the coast where Kevin Hogan in Page is threatening to move to the cross benches, Luke Hartsuyker in Cowper is not standing and David Gillespie in Lyne is a confirmed moderate. It is hoped that the “outsiders” will keep their noses out of the selection process and that common sense will prevail. Mike Dibbs Port Macquarie

WELL, well, well! Three holes in the ground! After an epic week of entertainment and unprecedented popping of corn, we have acquired a new leader of the Liberal Party and PM for Australia, Scott Morrison. I don’t know about the rest of you – but, I wasn’t expecting that! While most of us are still trying to fathom why we have a bunch of naughty pre-schoolers running the country, the rest of the world is waiting, mouths agape, for the next instalment of disgraceful playground behaviour in total disbelief. The best comments I have seen so far? A photo of the Queen saying: “Dear Australia, you know I can sack them all?” (Please do!) A picture of a plastic single use shopping bag saying – “Australia – Happy to change prime ministers, can’t ban the bags.” The piece de resistance for me? NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Adern and family with the following: “Hold the baby Clarke, I gotta go fix Australia.” I was literally crying from laughter! Sadly, even though the commentary has been very amusing and witty. It says a lot about the state of our government and not in a positive way. Last week’s display in parliament was cringe-worthy at best! Last count I heard, before the second leadership spill on Friday was, 11 or 12 ministers had tendered their resignation publicly. It was all over the media and everyone was talking about it. You would think with that many resignations there would need to be an election for all the vacant positions, wouldn’t you? Well apparently not. According to my sources even though the ministers publicly resigned, then PM, Malcolm

I MUCH appreciated the courtesy and customer service of Clarissa at Panthers Port Macquarie. You went out of your way to make our evening enjoyable.

DOWN TO the guys from Jax Tyres who we have found to be kind, helpful and courteous to deal with, always putting that bit extra in for their customers. Recently they went above and beyond their duty to come to our rescue. I couldn’t fault them from start to finish, and all with a smile on their face and a brilliant attitude. Very, very much appreciated. Highly recommended, great work ethic, best in town. Thank you!

Turnbull didn’t accept their resignations, so they keep their jobs. Wow! I don’t know of any jobs where you can make a public statement, send out media releases to media outlets stating you have resigned from your position and then continue to work in the same role as though nothing has happened - other than Australian politics, be it federal, state and (as we know from our experience with Cr Rob Turner), local government. I find that incredible! Is it a case of changing the rules to suit ourselves or is it a case of – I don’t want to do that part of the job I was engaged for so I’m resigning from doing that bit? Shouldn’t it just be black or white – I’ve resigned, thanks for the memories, I’m out of here or I’ve been elected to do this job, no matter what I’m doing the best I can, under the circumstances, for the people who elected me in? Asking for a friend. So, in under a week, we now have a new PM who has performed another complete parliamentary reshuffle, created his new ministerial cabinet from the same pond of resigned and un-resigned pollies of an unstable government and rewarded Dutton and Abbott, the instigators of the spill with a ministerial position. What a frigging joke! What! I suppose now it’s just business as usual?

WELL done to our council labourers who built a lovely new toilet block and covered BBQ facilities at Shelly Beach. This will be well utilised by locals and tourists alike. Thank you for making it modern yet not ostentatious as it fits in well with the natural surroundings.

Thumbs Up TO the delightful young lass Tamika who serves me every Saturday morning at the Kew Corner Store with my lotto. Tamika you’re such a sweet, cheerful young lady and you are an asset to such a busy little store. Keep up the good work!

Farewell to school’s cornerstone ONE of the cornerstones of Port Macquarie’s St Columba Anglican School has retired. Rev Canon Dr John Barrett said his goodbyes recently at the school. What many people might not know however, is that Dr Barrett is the foundation of what the school is today. “He was the visionary behind the whole school,” said Justyn Walker, Community Engagement and Advancement Manager at St Columba. “He approached the then Bishop of the day, Bishop Huggins, and said ‘we need to start an Anglican School here in Port Macquarie’. “He said there hadn’t been one here since they used to run a school out of the old convict church. It’s quite a big deal for us that he’s retiring.” Dr Barrett has presided as Chair of the School Council for the past 17 years. Dr Barrett came to Port Macquarie in 1979 as a pharmacist. He was involved with St Thomas Anglican Church, the fifth oldest church in Australia. He then did some research on the history of the church and realised that all the education in Port Macquarie between 1825 and 1865 was done out of the church. And then the public education system came in the 1860s and the Anglicans discontinued education there. “In 1990 I was elected as the Chairman of Committees for the Anglican Diocese,” explains Dr Barrett. “I had noted that other Anglican schools had begun to emerge in Tweed Heads, Coffs Harbour and the Clarence Valley. It started to twig. ‘Well why don’t we have one?’ “And so I thought I would speak to the Bishop of the day, Bishop Philip Huggins. In 1999, Bishop Philip, following the presentation of our Feasibility Study, gave us the go ahead to

Rev Canon Dr John Barrett OAM and his wife Valmai in front of St Columba Anglican School at the recent farewell ceremony start looking for land. So that was the beginning of the dream realised. “When St Columba Anglican School opened in 2002 we had 72 students. We now have around 1150, so there’s been outstanding growth.”

Not only has Dr Barrett played an important role at St Columba, but he is also heavily involved in the community, having also served in Port Macquarie Hastings Council as a councillor for 16 years, and as Mayor between 1991-92 when

the council received the R Bluett Award for the most outstanding council in NSW. He has also worked as a pharmacist and business owner, Clerical Canon for the Anglican Diocese and is a Board Member of the Mid North Coast Local Health District. “He’s the kind of man who is a leader and a visionary,” said Mr Walker. “He’s 80 next year but in his day he was a very good sports person. He played about eight different representative sports. He was an amateur boxer, and much more. Although since starting the school, education became his main priority. “Without Dr Barrett there would be no Iona Centre, no netball club, no SCAS swimming champions, futsal champions, no Performing Arts Centre, no choir going to Carnegie Hall, and no robotics champions. “He has been very giving of his time to both the staff and students of this school. It wouldn’t be the school that it is today, or it wouldn’t even be here today, without him.” Former Deputy Chair of St Columba Anglican School, Dr Gordon Burch, will succeed Dr Barrett as the new Chair. “It’s interesting, I played a number of representative sports, cricket, rugby, athletics, rifle shooting and golf, so I’ve come from a fairly strong sporting background,” explains Dr Barrett. “And yet to me, education has become important. I’ll be 80 next year and I feel that I’ve made my strongest contribution. I’ve had a fortunate life. I’m happy to go and I’m leaving the school in great hands. “I’m handing on to Dr Gordon Burch who has been a very good friend of mine for many years and as Deputy Chair has done a wonderful job. And we’ve got a dedicated, and enthusiastic School Council in operation.”

FOR LEASE! Available now!!!

This spacious open plan office is now available for lease. Prominent corner position on Lord Street with plenty of passing foot traffic. (opposite the PMHC) Vacant possession – partly furnished – move straight in! Premises suitable for office/admin or retail. Would make a fantastic Café (STCA)

Local ballerina at Glasshouse

Members of the Kempsey Macleay RSL Sub-Branch bow their heads in remembrance as the Last Post is played during the Long Tan Day ceremony on Saturday, August 18

We must never forget By SUE PATERICK

IT WAS a moving moment when the Last Post echoed through still crisp air at the Kempsey Macleay RSL Sub-Branch during the recent Long Tan Day ceremony, especially for Vietnam veteran Darrell Crilley. With bowed heads, a small group of exservicemen, members of the 312 Macleay Valley Squadron Australian Air Force Cadets, Kempsey Mayor Liz Campbell and the Honourable Melinda Pavey gathered outside the Sub-Branch’s Memorial Hall to honour the Australian men who died during the Battle of Long Tan. According to an Australian Government website, during the early hours of August 17, 1966, the Viet Cong (or VC short for Vietnamese Communist) attacked the Australian operational base of Nui Dat in the Phuoc Tuy Province in South Vietnam using mortars and recoilless rifles. Sub-Branch Secretary and Life Member, Alan Goulder, continued the grim story. He explained that the following day on August 18, 1966, about 108 Australian soldiers of D Company 6RAR were on patrol in Phuoc Tuy province. At around 3pm they made contact with the enemy in a rubber plantation. “A force estimated at 3000 men ambushed D Company, which was split in half in a torrential downpour,” Alan said. “The officer in charge then regrouped his company and fought a bloody battle.” Helicopters resupplied ammunition to the tiring Aussie soldiers and artillery support was called for from New Zealand troops to great effect. “The enemy fled under cover of darkness,” Alan added. “We lost 18 men and 24 were wounded but the VC lost approximately 500 dead and

Kempsey Macleay RSL Sub-Branch member and Vietnam veteran Darrell Crilley, Melinda Pavey and Kempsey Mayor Liz Campbell unveiling a plaque to honour the Australians who died and were wounded during the Battle of Long Tan in Vietnam hundreds were wounded.” Sub-Branch President, Terry Hunt OAM, said as in all ceremonies that remember the past we think of the people who died and didn’t come back. “We remember them with gratitude and respect,” he said. Darrell Crilley echoed those sentiments. He joined the army when was 17 and did three tours of duty during the Vietnam War at Phuoc Tuy, Da Nang and Saigon. He had a great respect for ex-serviceman, especially his grandfather who fought as an ANZAC during WWI. “If we don’t remember no-one will,” he said. When asked what it was like to fight in Vietnam Darrell simply said, “It was hot and dry or hot and wet.’ Darrell has been a Kempsey-Macleay RSL Sub-Branch member for 45 years, with 40 as

part of the executive committee, 22 years as President, 12 as Vice President and 20 years as a Life Member and Trustee. At the ceremony Melinda Pavey MP acknowledged Mayor Campbell and the exservicemen and guests present. She then thanked Air Force Cadets Brook Hewitt and Isabel Everson, and 312 Squadron Commanding Officer Ben Simon for his haunting rendition of the Last Post. “As we stand here today to commemorate the Ballet of Long Tan, we thank you,” Ms Pavey said. “We are pleased and proud there is a greater understanding of that conflict and appreciate the freedom and liberty we were given from the soldiers’ sacrifice and bravery.” A plaque entitled ‘Against All Odds’ was also unveiled at the memorial ceremony to honour the fallen soldiers.

• From Page 1 Given there were 51 competitors from 13 continents, Lucinda said she was totally overwhelmed to be announced one of only 14 finalists. “It was an incredible experience,” she added. Her passion for ballet shone through very early in Lucinda’s life and she has been dancing since she was two and a half. At just 13 years old she moved to Sydney on her own to train at Tanya Pearson Classical Coaching. Lucinda lived with a home-stay family at first until her Uncle moved to Sydney for work in the middle of 2016. At 14 Lucinda was already recognised as one of the world’s most promising classical ballerinas. In mid-July 2017 she headed off to London to train at the Royal Ballet Company’s summer school. This is a huge accomplishment because the Royal Ballet is ranked as one of the best in the world. This level of success in someone so young is also down to discipline and time management. Lucinda admits it is hard to juggle school work with professional dancing, but for her it is a labour of love. She is at her happiest when dancing. “I love ballet because I can express myself,” Lucinda said. “I dance from my heart and get lost in the role I’m playing.” With success comes sacrifice and for Lucinda the biggest hardship about being a ballerina is being away from her family. “It’s been hard,” Lucinda admitted. “I miss my mum Danae and my dad Adam and my three brothers terribly.” Lucinda can’t wait to dance at the Glasshouse in her home region because her family doesn’t get to see her perform all that often. “I know mum will cry when she watches me,” Lucinda said. “She works a lot to pay for things so this will be very special for her.” Lucinda’s advice to aspiring ballerinas is to believe in yourself and never ever give up. “You have to believe in yourself before anyone else can,” she said. “You can achieve anything you want if you just keep working hard.” Lucinda and the Sydney City Youth Ballet will perform at the Glasshouse on Tuesday September 4 at 7pm so check out www. glasshouse.org.au for more information. The ballet will also perform at Wollongong and at Chatswood’s Concourse Theatre. For more information on those performances go to www.classicalcoaching.com/sydney-cityyouth-ballet/

FROM THE DEPUTY MAYOR A conversation with Deputy Mayor Lisa Intemann This week I send a huge shout out to all those wonderful people who volunteer to care for our beautiful environment. We are so fortunate to live in such a magnificent natural environment – whether it’s our beaches, forests and rainforests, hinterland, or wildlife – we are truly blessed to live in what is definitely among the best and most diverse environments in the country. It is so annoying to see people causing deliberate damage to our environment, meaning the rest of us have to suffer and clean up after the irresponsible actions of a few. Council cannot tackle this issue alone and thankfully in our great community there are many volunteers and groups giving freely of their time, doing a wonderful job contributing to protecting our environment. Council supports many volunteer groups including the

Coastal Warriors, the North Shore Clean-up crew who collect on average three garbage bags of litter weekly, the Wauchope Champions looking after local parks, and the various Landcare groups around the Hastings who remove litter and weeds as well as do vegetation maintenance. And they are just examples. Over the past month, for instance, 126 registered volunteers spent 186 hours collecting rubbish and litter from within our community. Although not a very glamorous sounding job, it’s so important for everyone and hugely satisfying to leave a public space clean and tidy again. Graffiti Blasters do an equally important job cleaning up after illegal activity. Recently, existing volunteers and new recruits undertook the massive task of removing more than 62 tags from the Macquarie Park Netball Courts. All reported a great sense of pride and satisfaction – as well as a lot of laughs together – from doing this great work for the community.

pmhc.nsw.gov.au Marine litter is also a real problem, and our local Coastal Warriors have a mission to prevent harmful plastics and rubbish from entering our waterways. The group recently celebrated their one year anniversary, now with 253 active registered volunteers and having collected over 25,000 items of rubbish from beaches and parks – a truly tremendous effort. These are just some of the jobs our volunteers do, and to all the groups and individuals that are helping out in many different ways… an enormous thankyou to you all. Everyone can do their bit to reduce waste and litter. Check out the Hastings Family on tv, radio and on-line for tips to look after our environment. And if you’d like to get involved in volunteering please give Council a call. We’d love to hear from you. Have a great week, Lisa

Spring show for orchid originals THE first orchid society on the Mid North Coast is about to stage their Annual Spring Show. The Hastings River Orchid Society might be the oldest society in the area, but it’s society meetings are as fresh and vibrant as ever. “Our society was formed on July 4, 1964, and was the first orchid society ever formed in the Hastings Valley area,” said Greg Elliott, Secretary of the Hastings River Orchid Society. “We are the original ones and then Port Macquarie branched off and then so did Camden Haven later down the track. “I’ve been involved since 1980 and it’s changed a lot over the years. We’ve gone away from the normal meetings we used to have for about 50 years and are now focusing on helping new people who want to grow orchids. “We started the HOGGS, which is the Hastings Orchid Green Growers Society, and every meeting we have now, we focus on a different genera. We have someone come in to talk about it, how they look after it, where they grow it, how to care for it, and then we ask people if they’ve got a problem with their plant, and if they would they like to bring it in. “We had a lady from Port Macquarie who came to our last meeting and brought two Cymbidiums and we showed her how to go about resurrecting them and how to get them back to flowering. It was really good. And there’s a lot of people out there with orchids and they don’t want to go to a boring meeting, but they want to know how to look after their orchids.” There will be a huge volume of orchids in flower at the Spring Show this Sunday at Wauchope with emphasis on Australian Native Orchids. There will also be a great display of Quality Bromeliads and a sales table bursting with orchids in flower, along with other foliage plants for sale. Greg says that many people just throw out an orchid they were gifted because they simply don’t know what to do with it. “People buy them in flower and they give them as presents to their wife or friends and then after the flower falls off, they don’t know what to do with it. There’s a dead stem and that’s it. That’s exactly the sort of people who are coming to our meetings

and it’s been really well received.” Last year’s show was very successful and the society hopes this year will be even better. “It’s not just a little old orchid show,” explains Greg. “We had our Autumn Show in May and the RSL had a clicker that clicked each person that came through. We had over 800 people come through the door. I was so happy with that. It’s only for one day, but it’s non-stop. People travel from all over to come to our orchid shows too. I’m hoping to get more than 500 people this time.” The Port Macquarie Botanical Art Group will be displaying their beautiful art work depicting the Australian bush flowers and parrots. This will be the society’s 37th Annual Spring Show and will take place on Sunday, September 2, at the Wauchope RSL Club from 10am until 3pm.

Find the Lost Plot

PORT Macquarie’s Lost Plot Community Garden will be firing up their pizza ovens for their Spring Fair this Saturday. The garden will be blooming and full of life as the community comes together to celebrate all things Spring. “The Spring Fair is a fundraising event so we will be selling plants, woodfired pizza slices, home baked goods, and much more,” said Stephanie Baker, spokesperson for The Lost Plot Community Garden. “These events showcase the garden and hopefully encourage people to become members. Membership is our best means of raising funds to keep the garden going.” There will be lots of excitement for the whole family including face painting, gardening workshops, and stall holders who will be showcasing their wares. Be there for the ‘brewing your own weed tea’ workshop at 12pm and stick around to make your own potting mixes at 2pm. “There are so many children and families involved with the garden,” explains Stephanie. “The Thursday morning working bee has become very popular with parents and children. We even have a children’s garden growing. We also have a good relationship with the nature school, who recently came on an outing to visit the garden. The community garden grows organic food which is regularly maintained by the garden’s ‘working bees’. Here people have the opportunity to connect with the community, meet new friends, learn how to grow fresh fruit and vegetables, reduce food costs in the home, get outdoors and reduce stress, and be inspired to live a healthier lifestyle. The fair will be held at the garden on Saturday, September 1, from 11am – 3pm. Admission is free. The Lost Plot Community Garden is located at Central Rd, Port Macquarie.

As Australia’s energy system transitions the Australian Government is making energy more affordable. We’ve turned the corner on electricity prices and reined in the power of the network companies. We’ve secured agreements with retailers to give customers a better deal – saving you hundreds of dollars a year. And we’ve ensured there’s enough gas for Australians before it’s shipped off shore. It’s actions like these today that power a more affordable energy future.

Sponsored by SkillsLink Training - your community college.

Let passion decide future WELL known educator Andrew Lord facilitates the college’s Young Entrepreneurs Program, and he uses cutting edge life coaching strategies to motivate, empower and provide actionable clarity for young peoples’ future. In this program young people will build skills to earn an income doing something they love. The course teaches creativity, innovation, independence, risk management, budgets, financial planning, and a wide variety of communication skills. This can lead to creating passive income streams, as well as encouraging personal growth, design principles, word processing and data management. And all this happens based on projects that young people already love. It’s a win-win approach to making new entrepreneurs. While there are segments of Government working out their next step many young people are “getting their act together” and starting to explore how to become effective entrepreneurs. The community college has created new ways for young people to explore their potential in business, and we want to invite all sorts of new projects. We know that research shows the workforce of the future will be more transient, moving between jobs, places and mixture of at-home and at-work ventures. Evidence shows that 65% of students at school today will be employed in jobs that don’t even exist yet. If you would like to know more about it, please contact the college 02-65837288, or call in to 77 Hastings River Drive. You can see the full range of our programs for all ages at the college on our website www.skillslink.edu.au

YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS PROGRAM

Survey to boost health services HAVE Your Say On Mental Health Services: Invaluable insight into mental health care in NSW public facilities will be gathered through a new carer survey as well as from consumers, who will now be able to submit feedback online, in an Australian-first set to transform patient experience. The NSW Government has announced the two new initiatives will provide accurate and timely feedback to Local Health Districts about the services they provide, to ultimately improve care for people living with mental illness. The NSW Government is proud to become the first state to roll out a carer survey for mental health services, in addition to making the Your Experience of Service (YES) more accessible to patients by going online. Over the next two years the NSW Government will invest $180,000 in the new Carer Experience Survey and $280,000 for the electronic patient survey, which will provide feedback to make mental health services more consumer focused and therapeutic. The NSW Government is keen to hear from consumers, their families, and carers who hold vital information on how they can be better supported by our mental health services. Consumers can access the new online eYES survey on their mobile phone or computer. All information collected through the survey will

Maritime Museum Receives Heritage Funding: The Mid North Coast Maritime Museum is set to benefit from a $95,000 grant to support the community to protect their local heritage assets. The NSW Government’s Heritage Near Me Local Strategic Project funding will go towards protecting the Museum’s three locations including the Pilots Cottages in Williams Street, the Pilots Boat Shed in Clarence Street and the Hibbard Slipway and Men’s Shed. Heritage is an important foundation of local communities and this funding will also go towards developing and updating conservation management plans for the three locations.

CANBERRA CONNECTIONS With Dr David Gillespie Federal MP for Lyne

SIXTY new ambassadors will be selected to inspire more young women and girls to study, work, and to promote gender equity in STEM. The search is on for 60 outstanding women working in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) who want to become prominent role models for the young Australian community as part of the Superstars of STEM program. Nominations are open for the second round of the program, which supports and trains women working in the STEM sector to share their passion with the Australian community through the media, social media and on stage. Run by Science & Technology Australia, the Federal Coalition Government invested $1.3 million over four years to expand the Superstars of STEM. The program’s expansion this year, was to boost the participation of girls and women in STEM education and careers. Women in particular face real challenges in the science sector with women representing only 16 per cent of university and VET graduates in STEM. Nominations are open until midnight September 23, 2018. For more information or to apply visit www. scienceandtechnologyaustralia.org.au

No stopping gauntlet running DURING a visit to Darwin I came across a news item about an Olympian being required to “run the gauntlet” of public opinion. That brought to mind an annual event run by some people in Ireland. I checked and, sure enough, this place will hold its Running the Gauntlet event (“choice of tea and soup at the finish, provided by Kate Kearney’s Cottage”). Only in Ireland… So, what’s the connection between a gauntlet and running the gauntlet. Well, not much, really, but the expression “running the gauntlet” has become so entrenched in our language that I don’t think anything will change it. The gloves we use sometimes for gardening and a few other things have been called gauntlets. In medieval times gauntlets formed part of suits of armour and were made of much stronger material, including steel plates designed to injure more than snails and fruit flies. Sometimes if those knights wished to issue a challenge they would throw down their gauntlet and, if the person challenged took up the gauntlet then the challenge would be accepted. Presumably they would then fight until one knight saw the light of day and said goodnight. The first use of the word I could find came in 1420. On that occasion it was spelt gauntlette.

LAURIE BARBER

But originally the gauntlet had nothing to do with the word we now use in the expression “run the gauntlet”. The gauntlet was promoted in the 30-years war 1616-1648. The soldier being punished was to run through two groups of men, each of whom had a stick or knotted cord that he was supposed to swing at the victim. Later it was adopted in courts of law, the first reference to it being made in 1616. I think the problem is in the word people were supposed to use. Nobody could spell it. In 1646, the First Earl of Shaftsbury in his diary said “three were condemned to die, two to run the gantelope”. Gantelope was an Anglicised form of the

Swedish gatu-lop. The big Oxford dictionary says that a military punishment of the time had the “culprit” stripped to the waist between two rows of men who struck at him with a stick or knotted cord. Blount’s glossary of words said in 1656 gantlope, also spelt ghent lope, represented “a punishment of souldiers (his spelling), first invented at Ghent and therefore so called”. A 1706 report said 400 people had been forced to “run the gantlope” for not doing their duty. The novelist Henry Fielding in his Tom Jones used the word gantlope. Occasionally it was spelt gantelope and gantlop and I found one occasion when the expression “the female gauntlope” was used. I have to assume that somewhere over the years the association of similar-sounding words, or difficulty in spelling the correct word, led to an assumption that “throwing down the gauntlet” and “running the gauntlet” both employed the same word. These days very few would talk about running the gantelope or running “the female gauntlope”. But I think gauntlet is here to stay. lauriebarber.com; lbword@midcoast.com.au.

Lake Cathie’s little superheroes By BARBARA DYER

AMANDA Munro loves being part of the Hastings community, and loves the kids at her early childhood learning centre in Lake Cathie. They are her little heroes but, for a couple of days next week, they will all be little superheroes supporting Muscular Dystrophy Australia. On Monday and Tuesday tots at the My Place Early Learning Centre will be swishing around in capes, hiding behind masks and jumping from low heights, during National Superhero Week which runs from September 3-9. The week-long event aims to show those with muscular dystrophy that Australia supports them and promotes a positive message for those living with the disorder, especially children. “It should not stop them from realising their full potential and they are superheroes for fighting against muscular dystrophy,” says Muscular Dystrophy Australia’s Executive Director Boris Struk, whose youngest son Ryan is affected by Duchenne muscular dystrophy. “It is heart-warming to have Lake Cathie locals taking part in this year’s National Superhero Week and providing hope to individuals and their families affected by the condition.” My Early Learning Childhood Centre director and teacher Bec Thibault said Chris and Amanda Munro, who also own the Eco Kids Village in Port Macquarie, had been quick to register their Lake Cathie centre for the event. “Amanda and Chris, who took over this centre in May, are strong supporters of any events in their local Hastings community,” said Bec. “We see it as a means to raise awareness and open a dialogue with our children and families.

There will be plenty of heroics at the Lake Cathie My Place Early Learning Centre next week when children dress as superheroes supporting Muscular Dystrophy Australia. Getting prepared are above from left, Jasmine, Jake and Mackenzie and Jada. “Kids love to dress up and some will turn up in costume, or we’ll make them capes from our dress-ups. We’ll have some face painting through the day to make it more special and it’s a chance to talk to the children about how people can help us and how we can be superheroes, helping others in the community. “Muscular dystrophy research is a great cause and this is fun way to involve the children and help them understand a little about the struggles some kids have.” Bec said there would be a gold coin donation box and the centre would send all proceeds to

Muscular Dystrophy Australia. Kids and staff will also have a pyjama day on Wednesday for Early Educators Day. “It’s just another fun way to celebrate an important week,” said Bec. Muscular Dystrophy is a life threatening, muscle destroying disorder that affects one in every 625 Australians. There is no cure and young children are most vulnerable to the severest form of the disorder. “We are thrilled to have so many suburbs in NSW hosting their own National Superhero Week events,” said Mr Struk.

“It is a chance for school kids and adults alike to be that superhero they have always dreamed about, whilst also raising funds for our programs and research, making a difference and changing attitudes.” All funds raised from National Superhero Week go towards supporting research at the National Muscular Dystrophy Research Centre at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, as well as supporting Muscular Dystrophy Australia’s programs and services.

Men’s Shed revved up for fund-raiser THERE will be a virtual rolling museum of old and new motorcycles for the public to see at this year’s Stuarts Point Men’s Shed Fundraiser on September 8. The men are bringing their motorcycles from all over the Mid North Coast and are inviting the public to come and see their collection. “Last year we had about 130 bikes and we had about 250 people come,” said Mark Merritt, Coordinator of the event and Men’s Shed member. “We raised $800 and we hope to beat that this year. “There will be all kinds of motorcycles including vintage Triumphs, Harley Davidsons, and maybe even a Nimbus. The Nimbus is a really strange bike, even a lot of bikers haven’t heard of a Nimbus because they had a very short production phase. They were quite advanced for their time. People might even see a Rudge and a selectin of Indians, which is an iconic classic

American bike.” Funds raised from the event will go straight back into the Men’s Shed. “We are fundraising for a much-needed extension floor-slab at our workshop,” said Mark. “This could cost anywhere between $2,000$3,000 and that’s with a lot of us doing the work. “It’s a safety issue, because our shed is rather small and if we are going to operate big machinery, we need to take it outside so that the dust and sawdust doesn’t go on anyone else in the shed. “So we will bolt it down to the concrete slab outside. And that way everyone inside doesn’t have roaring noise or dust particles to contend with. It’s really just to expand our capabilities and make it a bit safer around the place.” Men’s Sheds across the country are providing community support services to their members and communities. These services include skills training, community maintenance and cleaning services, workshop access for individuals, recycling, reuse and repair services, social networking and individual care. They are also a good opportunity for men to get together for a good laugh over a hot cuppa and biscuits at regular morning tea sessions. Bring your appetite as the event will include a barbecue as well as the local Chinese restaurant will be serving food. There will be raffles, two major bike show prizes, and live music by ‘The Little Ripper Band’ from 11am. Major prizes will be awarded to winners for ‘Most Popular Old Motorcycle’ being any roadworthy motorcycle or scooter thirty years or older, and ‘Most Popular Modern Motorcycle’ being any roadworthy motorcycle or scooter not yet thirty years old. Machines may be trailered to the event but must be “road legal” with public or historic number plates. Judging and voting in each category will be done by the public, each vote being one gold coin placed into a ballot box officially attached to nominated motorcycles. Entrants are encouraged to juggle, sing, tap-dance or tell jokes to win

votes for their machines. The nomination fee is just $4 per machine. The competition nominations will open at 9am and voting will start at noon and finish at 1pm. The prize winners will be announced at around 2pm.

Join in the fun at the Stuarts Point Men’s Shed motorcycle show and lunch at the Stuarts Point Workers Club on September 8. The Shed is located at Lot 523 Pavans Access, Grassy Head. For more information phone Mark Merritt on 0427 571 770.

Grant aims to reduce violence “More than one woman a week is still beng murdered, but that doesn’t account for all the women who are living in that violence”

ORGANISATIONS in the Mid North Coast have been awarded a $1.5million grant to assist in the reduction of domestic violence. The recent funding from the NSW Domestic and Family Violence Innovation Fund, has been awarded to the Kempsey Families Inc, Port Macquarie Hastings Domestic and Family Violence Specialist Service, and Warrina Domestic and Family Violence Specialist Services. “This money will be used to employ a coordinator and three case managers across the Mid North Coast, from Coffs Harbour, including Kempsey and Nambucca, down to Port Macquarie,” explains June Wilson, CEO of Kempsey Families Inc. “The major costs are employment costs, but there’s also a brokerage component and set up costs, so it’s actually to provide case work to men who have been excluded from the family home.” The ‘Fixed Address’ program seeks to directly engage with men perpetrating violence in order to increase safety and reduce homelessness among women and their children. “Our focus is about keeping women and children safe because if we can keep them in their place of residence, we can keep all those familiar connections for the family,” June said. “So providing another option for men, it’s not about not supporting women, to us it’s about how to keep women and children safer.

And we feel this is perhaps a way of it working a little bit different, but I think that it will make a difference if there is those options available for men to have some space and perhaps engage in some men’s behaviour change work. “If we want to stop domestic violence against women and children, we need to concentrate on working with the men who perpetrate it.” The Fixed Address program addresses the aims of the NSW Domestic and Family Violence Blueprint for Reform 20162021 of holding perpetrators accountable, reducing ADVO breaches, expanding men’s behavioural change interventions, and providing accommodation for perpetrators to reduce immediate reoffending. Men seeking to change their violent behaviour can access the program directly or be referred by external agencies, court processes, partners or family. “These men have a need for power and control,” said June. “We are talking about intimate partner domestic violence. “It’s about power over another person and controlling most facets of their life – whether it be financial, emotional, psychological, physical, sexual. It’s very hard to say what causes domestic violence. “More than one woman a week is still beng murdered, but that doesn’t account for all the women who are living in that violence and are unable to be free from it, which is why we are

having such a strong response from people in the judicial system.” June says that the number of women and children affected by domestic violence is increasing in the Mid North Coast and across the country. “This program explores new ways to engage men in respectful, targeted ways that aim to decrease the risk to women and children, and reduce the burden on the homelessness sector,” explains June. “Fixed Address involves prevention, early intervention and crisis response. It will provide case management, transitional housing and a multitude of support services that men require in their journey to non-violence. “Through early intervention we can respond in innovative ways to new cases of violence, while also reducing longer-term recurrence by intervening and changing perpetrator behaviour.” The Kempsey Families Inc Specialist Support Services has been servicing the community for 25 years. It offers services and programs to support the well-being and nurturing of children and families, especially those who are vulnerable and disadvantaged. The programs enable families to manage life transitions, ensure children are protected and contribute to building stronger, more resilient communities.

FAMILIES on the Mid North Coast are about to gain more benefit from the Government’s commitment to listing proven new medicines on the heavily subsidised Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) as soon as they are recommended, regardless of the cost. Last week the Government announced it would make Orkambi, a new drug for the treatment of cystic fibrosis, available at the massive discounts that follow when medicines are listed. We have listed over 1800 drugs worth $9.3 billion since coming to office in 2013 in order to make them affordable and accessible to all. This is a big expense, but the Government recognises that the PBS is one of the key elements of our health system, alongside Medicare, free access to public hospitals, and private health insurance. Prompt and affordable access to new drugs

THE COWPER REPORT

list drugs immediately so people could get affordable access. We re-ordered our spending priorities to ensure there was access for everyone to treatment that would otherwise have been available only to the extremely well off. Examples of the sort of savings involved include the listing earlier this month of the cancer drug Opdivo, which would otherwise cost $50,000 a year for patients. The cancer drug Imbruvica would cost $134,000 for a year’s treatment if it had not been listed. Spinraza, a life changing medicine for sufferers of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, would cost $367,850 a year. These are costs only a handful of Australians could afford but now they are available to everybody.

Crucial drugs now affordable With Luke Hartsuyker

Federal Member for Cowper

and medicines is of crucial importance to individuals, to families and to the quality of care that our health system provides. Our predecessors baulked at listing drugs as soon as they were recommended by the independent Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee, arguing they didn’t have the money. This government decided from the outset that we had to resume the policy we established when we were previously in government and

Bunched field heads home IT has to be said again – what an incredible NRL season. The last home and away round and there is not a standout team to win the big prize in 2018. As the season progressed there have been several teams putting their hands up. Initially it was the Dragons and Storm. Then it was the Rabbitohs, and the Storm. Then the Roosters, and the Storm. Now the Broncos and the Sharks are popping up … and the Storm. It is a very even competition with any team in the eight with an argument to win the comp. However one team’s name keeps bobbing up … as they do every year. Last round, so let’s get some winners. Rabbitohs v Wests Tigers (Thursday, August 30, 7.50pm, ANZ Stadium): Finals success is all about winning momentum and this will be at the forefront of the Rabbitoh players’ minds for this clash. They stumbled last weekend against the Raiders and will be determined to win and stay in the top four. The Tigers can’t make the eight so this is a mental exercise of what could have been. Your Local Independent tips: Rabbitohs Warriors v Raiders (Friday, August 31, 6pm, Mt Smart Stadium, Auckland): Same story as above. However the Warriors had a good win over the Panthers last weekend and should be building momentum. The Raiders can spoil that, as they showed against the Rabbits. The Warriors have a couple of players due back from the casualty ward, so that will help their

cause. The Warriors are also at home, which will also be a plus. Your Local Independent tips: Warriors Storm v Panthers (Friday, August 31, 7.55pm, AAMI Stadium, Melbourne): The bookies have the Storm as strong early favourites and you would think that this is how it will pan out. However you get the feeling that despite Penrith’s poor recent form, they still have a couple of aces up their sleeve. One of those, James Maloney, could be back from injury this weekend. The Storm have a tough mental approach, so should be fine at home, but don’t be shocked by an upset. Your Local Independent tips: Storm Knights v Dragons (Saturday, September 1, 3pm, McDonald Jones Stadium, Newcastle): The Dragons have gone from strong contenders to a basket case. Their form reversal in the second half of the season is astonishing. However, the squad is much the same – yes, a couple of key injuries – but surely 17 grown men can shake off the jitters and start to play some football. They need Gareth Widdop back. If he lines up things will change. Your Local Independent tips: Dragons Titans v Cowboys (Saturday, September 1, 5.30pm, Cbus Super Stadium, Gold Coast): OK, two teams well outside the eight. A sell-out crowd at home for the Titans. But the reason for that is Johnathan Thurston’s NRL farewell. So who get’s the ground advantage. No doubt the Cows will be fired up to give JT the exit that he

deserves. But a big vocal crowd will boost both teams. The Titans would love to give their fans a reason to return in numbers in 2019. They have also shown in recent weeks that they can mix it with any team. Your Local Independent tips: Titans Eels v Roosters (Saturday, September 1, 7.45pm, ANZ Stadium, Sydney): The Roosters copped a massive reality check last weekend when beaten by the Broncos. All of a sudden the street-corner experts were at a loss. The Eels are hit and miss, but surely the Roosters will be well and truly back on track for this one. Your Local Independent tips: Roosters Bulldogs v Sharks (Sunday, September 2, 2pm, ANZ Stadium, Sydney): Can the Dogs cause another upset. In the past two weeks they have toppled top eight sides the Warriors and St George Illawarra. The Sharks, on the other hand are one of the few top eight sides with recent winning form – having taken the two points in all of their three past outings. They are now in the top four and can solidify that with a win here. If they are to be the surprise packet of this finals series, then they need to take the sword to the Dogs. Your Local Independent tips: Sharks Broncos v Sea Eagles (Sunday, September 2, 4.10pm, Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane): Well, haven’t the Broncos surprised everyone and are now the dark horse for the premiership. This is amazing considering the

coaching dramas around Wayne Bennett. Or was that just a smoke and mirrors trick to take pressure off the players? Nothing would surprise with Bennett, the master chess player. However they now need to win well to keep that momentum going. Manly, well their coaching dramas are real. Your Local Independent tips: Broncos
