Masonic Musings
Apart from Freemasonry and golf I’m very interested in the RSL, and am a Life Member of that wonderful organisation. On Sunday, 17 April a bus load of local RSL members attended pre-Anzac Day Services at Lake Rowan, St. James and Tungamah. After the service at Lake Rowan we were treated to a Devonshire brunch at the Lake Rowan Community Hall. Tea, scones, jam and cream. No shortage of scones and a huge dollop of cream. Delicious! Then followed a BBQ lunch at St James after listening to a wonderful address by Lt Col Parker. Snags, rissoles, a great supply of salad dishes and a couple of cold stubbies on

a beautiful sunny day. Life is good. Afternoon tea at Peter Chisnall’s friendly pub at Tungamah. Wonderful people, superb afternoon tea and a few cold ales. Life is great. Slept well that night. It being Anzac time it is fitting that I make brief mention of a little known aspect of Freemasonry which existed during the time of World War ІІ. A Masonic lodge operated in the infamous Changi prison, but throughout the South West Pacific area, and in Australia, a series of Masonic Clubs, known to Masons as Fidelity Clubs, existed. These clubs were normally formed after the heat of battle had moved on, and were formed by masons desirous of forging new friends with a common interest. The Fidelity Clubs formed in Australia were M.I.N.T. (Masons in the Northern Territory) at Darwin and M.I.C.A. (Masons in Central Australia) formed at Katherine. M.I.N.T. existed at Darwin for many years after the War (it might still exist) and M.I.C.A. later became Lodge Mica. Mica was also

About this time last year I mentioned that at the Installation at Benambra Lodge at Tallangatta I was amazed by the magnificent casserole-style banquet provided by the Benambra brethren and their ladies. I recently attended their 2011 banquet and can truly state that the variety and quality of this year’s banquet was up to last year’s standard. I’m being spoilt.

the name of the mineral mined in that area. The Lodge at Port Moresby, under the Queensland Constitution, went into recess but M.I.N.G. Fidelity Clubs (Masons in New Guinea) sprang up at Port Moresby, Nadzab, Madang and Milne Bay. Others were formed at Goodenough and Kiriwina Islands, Hollandia, Biak Island, Lorengau in the Admiralty Islands, Cape Gloucester, Moratai, Labuan, Tarakan, Balikpapan and, nearer to home, Thursday Island. Further afield, M.O.P.I. (Masons on Phillipine Islands) was formed in Leyte on 4 March 1945 – my 21st birthday. I was serving in Leyte at that time but was totally unaware of any Masonic activity there, or anywhere else in the S.W.P.A. There may well have been many more Fidelity Clubs than those I have mentioned but I doubt that that aspect of Freemasonry has ever received much publicity. Don’t miss our garage sale next Saturday.

SHP needs your help Sacred Heart Primary is participating in ‘You Can’, an initiative of Sony Foundation Australia and CanTeen, and the school needs your help. In 2010, Sony Foundation Australia, together with CanTeen, launched ‘You Can’, a national fundraising campaign to build youth cancer centres across Australia. The
‘You Can’ Schools Program encourages primary schools to donate old mobiles in exchange for educational products such as interactive whiteboards and Sony laptops and in turn the raise money for the youth cancer centres. SHP has decided to be a part of this campaign to help young Australians survive cancer by collecting old mobile
phones. So, what are you waiting for? Do you have a new iphone and have an old phone in the drawer at home? For every 65 phones collected the school will receive a digital camera, 150 phones gets them a movie camera and 450 qualifies the school for a new interactive smartboard. Please send a message to everyone on your
phone or send an email to all your contacts and ask them to pass on any old phones to the office at Sacred Heart Primary.

Recognising learning champions Applications are now open for the Victorian Learn Local Awards, recognising the inspirational efforts of adult learners, educators and education providers.
Member for Murray Valley Tim McCurdy said Minister for Higher Education and Skills, Peter Hall, had recognised the
enormous contribution of Learn Local education and training providers make to Victoria when he launched the sixth annual Learn Local Awards recently. “The awards are supported by the Adult, Community and Further Education Board,” Mr McCurdy said. “Helping people back to work,
learning foundation skills which are then used to help others, and growing with the changing needs of the community, are just some of the significant activities undertaken annually through Lean Local education and training.” Every year, thousands of Victorians learn a diverse range of skills
and gain qualifications through Learn Local adult community education organisations within their community. “We have many dedicated and professional staff and volunteers working every day with learners across the Murray Valley region including The Centre, Wangaratta; Numurkah
Community Learning Centre; Cobram’s Community House and Neighbourhood Houses in Wangaratta and Yarrawonga,” Mr McCurdy said. Mr McCurdy encouraged eligible Murray Valley residents to consider nominating individuals and organisations for the awards in recognition
of their effort in education and training. There are six award categories: outstanding organisation, outstanding learner, outstanding practitioner, outstanding Koorie achievement,outstanding pre-accredited program and innovation in learning. Nominations close on June 24 and the winners will be announced
