n Warning over unfair recruitment...
Cost of racism YOUNG job-seekers in Greater Dandenong are changing their names on their resumes to overcome race discrimination from employers. At a young migrant employment forum in Dandenong last week, Sudanese-born audience member Albert Mambo said an employer who rejected his original CV invited him to a job interview when he resubmitted his resume with an alias name. “They later called me to tell me I didn’t get the job,� he told the Journal. Several audience members of Afghani background told the Journal they and their friends were using the same application ploy as Mr Mambo. Zakir Rezaie said he believed it was necessary to counter employers’ discrimination. “I’d certainly consider doing it. I know other people who changed their names to get an interview,� he said. Over the past four years, Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission has averaged nearly one complaint every two days of race discrimination in workplaces. Commissioner Kate Jenkins said there was a “significant amount� of race discrimination in recruitment and formal complaints were “the tip of the
iceberg�. “It is very disappointing that race discrimination remains a real problem in Victorian workplaces, despite more than 30 years of legislation, training and education. “Assumptions that someone cannot do a job on the basis of their surname are out of touch and mean that employers are missing out on the benefits of a diverse workforce, and they may also be against the law.� Ms Jenkins said the racial discrimination could be “systemic� and difficult to identify. “There is a need to further educate employers about equal opportunity rights and responsibilities as well as the benefits of employing people with diverse experiences, whether born locally or overseas.� Katrina Peach, of South-East Local Learning and Employment Network that staged last week’s forum, said Muslim job-seekers suffered the harshest discrimination. “It’s the first time I’ve heard an African changing their name but I’m not surprised,� she said. “It’s not necessarily discrimination against skin colour but assumptions about who they are and their language skills.� She said training providers had told her they didn’t want “Muslim or Sudanese boys�. “There’s no reporting of those training organisations for dis-

crimination. They are paid for training outcomes.� After the event last week, forum host Aaron Mashano urged Mr Mambo to work “11 times as hard� as other job-seekers to land the job. Mr Mashano, chief energy officer of Leaders of Tomorrow, said: “Persistence is number one. “For us, it’s 10 times harder because we’re black. “But if I’m working 11-times as hard, I’ll get the job.� McDonald’s Springvale store owner David Fowler, one of the forum panelists, said any employer that discarded job-seekers on the basis of name was “foolish�. “At my store, 145 people are working for me. “They are from 35 different nationalities,� he said. “It’s about you, not about your name. Don’t put that road-block up.� Victoria Police representative Sergeant Liam Gardiner told the forum “there’s no way that could happen� to police candidates. “We’re bound by legislation that we can’t discriminate by race, religion or sex. The name means nothing to us,� he said. Other employer representatives said having a multi-lingual migrant background was a plus for candidates.

Confession dilemma By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS DOVETON Catholic priest Michael Shadbolt says he faces a “moral dilemma” on whether to report child sex abuse uncovered during a confessional. Father Shadbolt leads Holy Family parish, which was featured in a landmark parliamentary report Betrayal of Trust on the handling of criminal child abuse by religious and other institutions. The State Government is set to act on the damning report’s recommendations, including introducing a crime for concealing child abuse. However, Fr Shadbolt said he is “seeking clarification” from church leaders on whether this would extend to the “secrecy of the confessional”. “It has never happened to me but it causes me great difficulty. “The care of children should be the highest priority but I want to be true to my teachings about the secrecy of the confession. “It was drummed into us you don’t mention what’s said in a confessional to anybody. “I see the importance of that but what if kids are likely to be abused? Boy, what a dilemma.” “If you learn of the crime in a confession but also somewhere else, I don’t think that should be kept secret,” Fr Shadbolt said. “What if a child was to come in (to a confessional) and say they were a victim, this is something I’d

tion by ensuring this doesn’t happen again.” Fr Shadbolt moved to Holy Family parish after the reign of accused child sex abuser, the late Father Peter Searson, who was at Holy Family from 1984-97. Last week’s report stated the Catholic church failed to act on complaints against Father Searson, as well as other suspicious clergymen. “At first I couldn’t believe these claims,” Fr Shadbolt said. “I thought it would be a tiny minority of priests but the cases kept coming. This suggested there were a significant minority - that’s the hardest thing to accept. “I was convinced that the media were beating it up. There’s some truth in that, but not much. The media didn’t cause this issue, we caused it.” Former teacher at the parish’s school Carmel Rafferty gave evidence to the inquiry that she was silenced, shut down and bullied in 1992 when she dared to question Father Searson’s behaviour. Last week she spoke at a “rally of hope” on Parliament House steps - the day the inquiry’s report was handed down. “I feel we’ve reached a watershed moment where we have been trying to be heard and finally our government has heard us and believed us,” she later told the Journal. “There was a huge sense of relief that the burden has been lifted off our shoulders.”

ing of the South East Region Tours Steering Group, which includes interfaith and multi-faith representatives from Dandenong, Casey, Cardinia, Monash, Kingston, Frankston, Knox and Mornington. “It’s a great idea but there are over 40 interfaith and multi-faith groups in Victoria and a presentation to the UN should involve as many regional representatives as possible,” Ms Heath said. “We need to build upon
Drink-drivers warned not to run gauntlet “YOU can run the gauntlet on Heatherton Road, but it’s just a case of when you’ll get picked up.” This was the warning from Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol Senior Sergeant Scott Roberts ahead of a series of operations in marked and unmarked police cars during the
Christmas and new year period. “We know that Heatherton Road is thoroughfare for drinkdrivers,” he said. “It’s a real risk road for us generally. “Heatherton Road is going to be targeted in a big way.” Operation Removal all impaired drivers (RAID) started
last weekend and will run into early January, with more operations to follow. Sen Sgt Roberts said in addition to Heatherton Road, his officers would target licensed premises. “We’ll be out there in droves between now and the new year,” he said.

GREATER Dandenong Interfaith Network’s president has backed a call for the network to make a presentation before the United Nations in New York. But Helen Heath, involved with the Interfaith Network of the City of Greater Dandenong since 2000, said the concept needed to include faith networks throughout Victoria and would be dependent on funding and bi-partisan support.
Casey mayor Geoff Ablett pledged last week to call on the State Government and Opposition to support a bid for the Casey Multi-faith and other networks, including the Dandenong Interfaith Network, to speak at the UN headquarters in Manhattan. Cr Ablett plans to submit a notice of motion to Casey Council this week requesting it organise a meeting to discuss the viability of a group of multi-faith repre-

Accolades for engagement DANDENONG’S revitalised Lonsdale Street has picked up a national award. The collaboration between landscape architecture and urban design firm TCL and BKK Architects won the Walter Burley Griffin Award at the National Architecture Awards at the Sydney Opera House on 7 November - the highest accolade for urban design. The Lonsdale Street redevelopment was a key part of the $290 million Revitalising Central Dandenong Initiative, launched by the State Government in 2006. Lonsdale Street was historically a prosperous retail spine
but in recent years had become a major arterial route dissecting the retail heart, creating a significant physical and psychological barrier to the city. It was redesigned as a grand, 500 metre boulevard with a pedestrian focus. Through-traffic is guided between double rows of pin oaks. There’s patterned paving, shared traffic zones and rain gardens that collect and treat stormwater run-off to be reused for irrigation. Lonsdale Street has again become the heart of central Dandenong. The awards jury commended TCL/BKK’s design for its dramatic impact in changing the city’s feel.

“Not so long ago Dandenong was seen by some as a place to avoid; now it is a destination,” they said. “Lonsdale Street has been transformed from a wide, barren arterial route into an engaging pedestrian realm.” The jury said reconfiguring bus routes and existing infrastructure and integrating it into the streetscape had shifted the city’s centre of gravity and created healthy, vibrant urban spaces. They also applauded the design process for being genuinely consultative and collaborative, with a resilient, clear masterplan that allowed the community and other stakeholders to contribute meaningfully to the vision.

GREATER Dandenong’s festive street decorations have “lost the feel for Christmas”, says councillor John Kelly. This year, the council will spend nearly $85,000 on Christmas street decorations in Dandenong, Noble Park and Springvale. At last week’s council meeting, Cr Kelly argued that Christmas was sparsely represented. The most notable decorations were giant presents and a reindeer perched on top of Bendigo Bank in Lonsdale Street. After the meeting, he sug-
gested the return of a symbolic crib and pole decoration. “At the moment, it looks like we’re not celebrating Christmas.” Readers on the Journal’s Facebook page agreed. Brad Woodford wrote that Dandenong, Springvale and Noble Park’s main streets needed to be “livened up with Christmas cheer”. “I was worried that Dandenong was going to follow in the footsteps of Moreland and Darebin councils in toning down public decorations, so as not to offend Muslims. I’d hate for this to happen.” A council spokeswoman

I AM disgusted at the treatment dished out to councillor Maria Sampey by the elected officers. I find it hard to fathom why such a devoted member of council should be subjected to the vile actions of other members, namely former mayor (Angela) Long and her “gang”. Their investigations at the expense of the ratepayers were completely unnecessary and costly. If the result of this showed any wrong-doing by Maria and Peter Brown, then it should have been released. The resulting illness suffered by Maria Sampey is sad and as a clear result of the completely unnecessary actions of a few elected councillors. Wake up and do your elected job, not the damaging infighting that appears to be going on at our expense and the health of others. Greg Ryan, Dandenong North

Disability access vital I COULDN’T agree more with the sentiments expressed by Mr Farrugia (Short-sighted city, Journal, 11 November). I, too, served on various committees in our local areas for many, many years before becoming totally disillusioned by the council’s lack of any meaningful action in making the City of Greater Dandenong accessible for its residents with disabilities. Christopher Daley, via web.
Good questions COUNCILLOR Matthew Kirwin, re: asking too many questions - well done. You are so interested in our community and listen to concerns of all residents. I attended a council meeting and could not believe only a few councillors had questions. Your work with Greater Dandenong Neighbourhood Watch is much appreciated. I would like to see you as mayor next year. Dawn Vernon, Greater Dandenong Neighbourhood Watch president
We don’t think “municipal building project” has a great ring to it...So what do YOU think the new council offices, public square and library in Dandenong should be called? We’ve heard a cheeky suggestion for it to be dubbed “The Kremlin” for its red exterior and secrets within... Kim Reid: Looks like the Costa Concordia to me! Melbourne trains are more punctual than they were three years ago, according to figures released on Wednesday. Public Transport Minister Terry Mulder said the stats showed new trains, extra services and increased maintenance were paying off. Has your train experience improved? Brad Woodford: I would agree. The system is much better than two years ago. Still a way to go, though.
Jim Memeti is City of Greater Dandenong’s new mayor. What do you think of the choice? Mark Lanyon: I like it a lot. Long time earned. Councillor John Kelly doesn’t think the council’s festive decorations are ‘Chistmassy’ enough. What do you think? What would you like to see adorning your town during December? Kim Reid: I agree! You would barely know it’s Christmas in Greater Dandenong! Our coloured lights down the centre of Lonsdale Street should be red and green! And why not invest in other cultural celebrations too?

Goal of peace By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS BLOKES, competing fiercely on the soccer field, will be leading the charge to extinguish family violence off the field. On Sunday, 13 teams will be vying for two White Ribbon Cup trophies in Dandenong - the day before White Ribbon Day. The event will bring together a police side with teams of Afghani, Sudanese, Persian, Burmese, Tamil and Australianborn players. Many of the men, who had not heard of White Ribbon, have become enthusiastic for the concept. All will sign an oath “never to commit, excuse or remain silent about violence against women”. Some have been signed up as White Ribbon ambassadors to spread the word in their communities. Men’s peer-pressure is a key ingredient to ending the family violence scourge said organiser Joanna Palatsides of the Nikolaos Institute of Philanthropy. “The aim is for men to get the message out to other men violence is not OK.” Ms Palatsides has been a victim of domestic violence believed to affect three in five women. It can include physical violence as well as emotional and financial domineering. She said “standing up” now heals the trauma caused by her ex-partner’s brutality 20 years ago. “Back in those days, we didn’t have the support of police. There wasn’t the publicity around it. You didn’t talk about it. People said it must be your fault. “My parents said to me to go

Come back and it will be OK. “But it became a nasty incident. The relationship had finished but then there was stalking and an attempted kidnap.” She said she didn’t take out an intervention order because she was “terrified by the police”. Ms Palatsides has also organised an art exhibition Be-

Warmth pervades market AMANDA Bevan, marketing manager, at the busy, four-days-a-week Dandenong Market is a talented, friendly “people person”, well suited to her responsible role. She treats stallholders and a diverse range of customers from local shoppers to overseas visitors and tourists from not only Victoria, but interstate, with warmth and friendliness. “Our first Dandenong market day was in 1866, making our market one of Victoria’s oldest,” she said with justifiable pride. Ms Bevan spoke of the recent opening of the market for Sunday trading from 10am to 3pm, in addition to the time honoured Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 7am to 4pm. She said the market completed a $26 million development in 2011 and it now offered a fine selection of fresh produce, quality butcher items from a delicatessen and seafood, as well as
MY VOICE A MOMENT WITH
MARG STORK a vast array of fruit and vegetables, plants, baked goods, jewellery, homewares, toys and clothing. In referring to the market’s ‘Past, Present, and Future’ she said, Dandenong Market had formed part of the rich heritage of Dandenong since 1866. On market days, the open-sided sheds take on new life with hundreds of shoppers bustling through the great variety of fresh produce and assorted wares. Today, in a world when seemingly sterile, air conditioned shopping centres have become the norm, the Dandenong Market provides a refreshing and traditional shopping experience for all ages.
When the proposed settlement of Dandenong was first surveyed in the 1850s, two acres of land was set aside as cattle yards. The idea at that stage was to develop Dandenong as a market town. In the 1860s a site in Dandenong for a public market was secured on the intersection of Lonsdale and McCrae streets. In October 1866, the market was officially open for business. In 1926, the market was relocated to its existing site on the corner of Clow and Cleeland streets, and in 1958 the livestock section of the market moved to the area on Cheltenham Road, behind the Dandenong railway yards. Although the market is still in the same spot, the buildings and structure of the market have changed over the years. In 1996, the market underwent a complete overhaul, with extensions to the fruit and vegetable areas, development of a multi-level carpark,

100 YEARS AGO 18 November 1913 The elephants The six elephants belonging to Wirth’s circus were given a treat on Sunday afternoon, when they were taken down to the old clay hole of the defunct Centennial Brick and Tile Company near the Dandenong butter box factory. Into the water the huge beasts, which weigh a couple of tons approximately, plunged, and were soon gaily swimming about, spouting the water through their trunks, and trumpeting. There were

Police had to regulate the flow of customers. More than 10,000 customers patronised the supermarket during
the day to purchase such “specials” as sugar at 2/11 for 4 lb., T-bone steaks at 3/11 lb., and hind quarters at 19/11. Sugar was one of the most popular items sold (40 tons) and 1800 sponges at 2/- also proved popular with buyers. More than 220 complete lambs and 15 bullocks were also sold.

Drink driver kept in By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS A SERIAL court absconder and unlicensed drink-driver facing a total of 36 charges was denied bail in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last Monday. William Mayan of Dandenong was arrested by a Protective Services Officer at Springvale railway station on 9 November over “minor property damage” when it was discovered there were eight outstanding warrants for his arrest. During a bail application hearing, informant Constable Dan O’Connor told the court of Mayan’s multiple drinkdriving and speeding offences since March 2012 despite the applicant never having held a driver’s licence. On one occasion, he pro-
duced a suspended learner’s licence belonging to ‘Atim Atim’. It was alleged he was “so drunk he couldn’t walk or identify his friends” when pulled over - yet again - as an unlicensed driver in Bangholme on 25 May this year. Of his six court hearings since September 2012, Mayan attended once. On that occasion Mayan left the courthouse early because “it took too long to hear”, he allegedly told police. Const O’Connor said police had tried on “numerous occasions” to get Mayan to court. “Police believe the accused has no intention to appear at court,” Const O’Connor said. “He has 36 outstanding charges and little regard for drink-driving and placing him-
self and road users at risk.” Mayan’s defence lawyer said Mayan hadn’t taken the situation seriously until being arrested and held in custody for the previous three days. He hadn’t offended since July, she said. Mr Bryant said Mayan showed “complete and utter contempt to answer bail and come to court”. “We can only indulge someone so much. The one day he came (to court) he left because he was bored.” However Mr Bryant said he was likely to hand down a suspended jail sentence if Mayan pleaded guilty to the charges. He remanded Mayan in custody pending a community corrections order assessment.

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT… JUSTICES of the Peace do the work of eight full time police in Greater Dandenong each year. About 80 received a big thank you for their efforts from City of Greater Dandenong at the Springvale Town Hall on 6 November. Springvale Senior Sergeant Alan Dew said his station relied on JPs 38 hours each week, and across the municipality the volunteers signed more than 200,000 documents each year. MAYOR Jim Memeti is not really a Jim at all. He told the Journal his Grade 4 teacher struggled to pronounce his given name, Vergim. “I’m gonna call you Jim,” they said, and it’s stuck with him ever since. A website comment from Phil Bell warmed our hearts last week. “Hey that’s me Mum, she’s grouse!” he wrote about a photograph of Philipa Bell with her contribution to the Noble Park Community Art Show. 107722 Picture: ROB CAREW
HEMMINGS Street in Dandenong was a breeding ground for suc-
cess it appears, with both Greater Dandenong mayor Jim Memeti and Castricum Brothers managing director Gary Castricum growing up there. Last week’s Dandenong Retail Traders’ Association (DRTA) Christmas dinner also revealed just how tight-knit the suburb was. Mr Castricum told guests the new DRTA vice president and secretary Peter Hoffman used to cut his hair when he was 17, and he went to school with Retailer of the Year finalist Angie Bottari. A MAN appearing at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court sent a curious message on his tattooed head. Among his markings were the words ’Born To Blend’ under the picture of a blender.

A MAN walked into Dandenong Magistrates’ Court with a fold-up knife in his pocket and crystal methamphetamine in his underpants. He walked out with a threemonth jail sentence, suspended for the next 12 months. He claimed he’d inadvertently left the knife in his pocket while cleaning his bedroom the night before. A DANDENONG man, 49, escaped drugs charges following a drug raid on his Hilton Street home on 7 November. He’ll instead face court over a stolen scissor lift valued at $20,000 discovered in the search.
International jewel thieves

THIEVES stole $600,000 in jewellery in Springvale last month in what police say is one of a string of international thefts. Two sales representatives, both Hong Kong nationals, returned to their black Toyota Yaris sedan parked in Buckingham Avenue about 3.30pm on 30 October, after visiting a jewellery store in the nearby shopping centre. The men had each placed about $300,000 worth of jewellery in the back seat of the car and were ready to drive away when two South American men smashed the front and rear driver’s side windows. Police from Dandenong and Embona Taskforce said one reached in, took the key from the ignition and snapped it while the other took the jewellery from the back seat. Police believe they might have fled in a white Holden Commodore sedan. The victims had flown in on Monday. Jewels worth $500,000 were stolen in the same circumstances in central Melbourne on 12 October. Information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

THE best way to remember Diggers is to “build a country” they would have wanted, a crowd at a Remembrance Day ceremony in Dandenong was told. No longer does 11 November mark just the end of World War I, Dandenong RSL president John Wells OAM told the crowd at the Pillars of Freedom. It also comprises Australia’s subsequent conflicts and conflicts that impacted the waves of migrants who have settled here. “We’re no longer an AngloSaxon society. That’s one of our strengths,” Mr Wells said. The moment of silence endured longer than usual at this ceremony. Due to the absence of a microphone, most speakers struggled to project their voices over the Lonsdale Street traffic din. However, Mr Wells’s booming voice cut through traffic noise to strike meaning into a crowd including Vietnamese and Australian veterans and Dandenong High School students. He said a meaningful memorial for those who risked their lives, suffering hardship, loneliness and fear, would be

It’s adjacent to the Springvale War Cemetery, the final resting place for 611 service personnel who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (SMCT) installed the large granite tribute bearing plaques for 39 recipi-
ents - including six from Britain who settled in Victoria - and the citation they received. “His work has always been marked by the greatest coolness and bravery,” one read. Another said: “By his gallant and determined action he saved a critical situation, prevented many casualties and was mainly, if not entirely, responsible for the final objective being taken.” Behind five plaques are recipients’ remains. Four were already interred at Springvale while another was at Fawkner, and families gave permission

“It needs to be nurtured (otherwise) we’ll lose it before we know it,” Mr Wells said. Mr Wells recounted meeting a former soldier who spent 17 years in a re-education camp after World War II. “I must be a slow learner,” the veteran told Mr Wells. “That’s funny,” Mr Wells told the crowd. “But it’s also not funny.”

Company hero praised By CASEY NEILL A MEMBER of staff who saved a vital piece or equipment from being destroyed as a factory fire burned around him has been hailed a hero. Twelve staff were inside a Dandenong South factory when it went up in flames last Tuesday night. “One of the guys - I don’t know if we call him the company hero or the village idiot - he actually rescued the one piece of equipment that we can’t do without,” Image Line Marking operations manager Jamie Moxham said. “Without that the company would have stopped for eight weeks.” Mr Moxham said the staff member called Brock was cou-
rageous and all workers escaped uninjured. “But I think it’s one of those things that if you succeed you’re a hero, and if you don’t you’re a fool,” he said. CFA crews received the call to the fire in Amberley Crescent about 10pm on 12 November. “During the cleaning duties a small amount of thinners caught on fire,” Mr Moxham said. “The guys tried to put it out with the fire extinguishers. “By the time they’ve realised they couldn’t put it out, there was only time to evacuate and get one vehicle out before all the stock went up in flames. “It looks like the building will be condemned. “We have a very small premises up the road that we use for storage. We’re trying to squeeze
as much as we can in there. “It’s going to be very challenging to say the least.” The company had purchased a new building on Kitchen Road and is negotiating settlement down from 90 days to a week and a half. “We were looking at moving in January,” Mr Moxham said. Image completes line marking on large construction projects like EastLink and for 13 councils. Mr Moxham said its 20 employees were nervous after the blaze. “We had employees ringing up in tears wondering what’s going on with their jobs,” he said. He hoped they’d be back to almost full strength by the end of the month.

Decades of purpose By CASEY NEILL THIRTY years ago, a group of concerned Dandenong Rotarians had a vision to provide meaningful, fulfilling employment for disabled people. They wanted to give them not only employment, but a sense of purpose and endeavour and a feeling of belonging to a community. On 7 November Gateway Industries celebrated three decades of doing just that. Outgoing City of Greater Dandenong mayor Angela Long unveiled a plaque at the festivities, at the Progress Street site. Arthur Wren, Murray Guille and other Dandenong Rotarians formed a group in 1983 to investigate opportunities to provide for disabled people in the community. They set up the Gateway Centre in rented premises at the Doveton Hall for assembling and packaging goods. They soon sought a bigger home and leased a factory in Futura Road,

Keysborough, in 1984. Gateway’s main activities expanded to gardening and outside work, plus some woodwork at the factory and external employment. After 20 years at Keysborough, Gateway decided to look for a premises of its own and plans were drawn up for a pur-
pose-built factory. It opened in Progress Street, Dandenong, in 2003 and Gateway has since expanded the quantity and scope of its operations. Today its customers include City of Greater Dandenong, City of Casey, Gates and Denso Australia.
Say on shopping strip spruce-up DANDENONG West traders, residents, teachers and students will be given a say on how to spruce up a shopping strip in Hemmings Street. Co-Design Studio - on behalf of Greater Dandenong Council - will run its One Small Change workshop to garner feedback from the community on Friday. It will directly approach businesses, talk with students at Dandenong West Primary School and conduct vox pop interviews in the main street.

Last June, locals told the Journal there was a need for more security cameras, rubbish clean ups, a crackdown on drug dealers and aggressive beggars, and a post office. Greater Dandenong councillor Matthew Kirwan pushed for the radical “community codesign” process last year. “This is more than just normal community consultation, where the council will conduct a survey and go off with the feedback and design something
quite different to what people wanted. “Community co-design is really working together to design what the shopping strip should be,” Cr Kirwan said at the time. What are your ideas to improve Dandenong West? Let us know at journal@ starnewsgroup.com. au or facebook.com/ DandenongJournal.

9 to 16 years old. Teams have to design, build and program a LEGO robot to complete a series of challenges in two minutes and 30 seconds based on a theme, which this year was Nature’s Fury. They also need to identify problems associated with the theme, develop solutions and present them to the judges. The nine Grade 5 and 6 students and three teachers from Wooranna Park started on the task eight weeks ago. “Since then they’ve worked lunchtimes, as many classes as possible, weekends ... “ Mr Lowne said. They created a bushfire plan app for their ‘solution’ component, which has received positive feedback from the CFA. “They’ve said that if it does what we are hoping it will do when it’s completed, they were
very happy to help us promote it,” Mr Lowne said. The team hopes to have the app available for download in time for the national contest. “We’ll be competing against about 26 other teams from around the country,” Mr Lowne said. “The robot run wasn’t our strongest part of the day. A few things went wrong for us. The kids pulled together and came up with some really innovative ideas to fix it. “If everything goes our way, we could be one of the best teams in the country.” The FLL National Tournament will be held at Macquarie University in New South Wales on Saturday 7 December. Call Wooranna Park Primary School on 9795 2007 to help the team get there.

The taste of diversity By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS IT’S touted as a calorie-neutral way to sample Dandenong’s diverse delicacies. This month, as part of a Good Food Month walking and eating tour, foodies from across Melbourne are working up appetites as well as working off the weight from a smorgasbord of treats. Last Tuesday, the movable feast included a banquet at Afghan Rahimi Restaurant, meals at Polish restaurant Kluska and African Village Kitchen, as well as taking out nibbles from Maiwand Bakery and Rob’s British Butcher and touring Dandenong Market’s The Kitchen. What stands out is the quality ingredients cooked with cultural authenticity at each of the lunchtime pitstops – each helping to build the city’s enviable culinary repuation. First on the menu were
Polish dumplings at Kluska -cheese, mushroom and beef varieties. As with the soups, borscht, sauerkraut and all else on the menu, they are made with locally-sourced ingredients ground and prepared daily on-site. It is a time-consuming cooking process; the reward is ultrafresh foods. An impressive list of Eastern-European beers and pilsners round off the traditional experience, albeit among palm trees in the rear alfresco section. Owner and chef Barbara Szwed – a former bookkeeper – cooks straight, traditional Polish food. She is bucking the trend of fusing various cultural influences, instead opting for the food she enjoyed as a child. Next stop were hot Afghan breads - among the thousands baked each week at Maiwand Bakery, what is believed to be the first Afghan bakery in Aus-
Baryalai Rahimi at Afghan Rahimi Restaurant. 110226 tralia. The kitchen’s oven is a hot bed of activity as about 2000 flat breads a day are loaded, cooked, flung from the oven and sold for between 75 cents- $1.50. Then there was the west African cuisine and sharp, sweet Kenyan mango juice at African Village Kitchen.
On the tour, a zesty lemon, onion and chicken breast dish (yassa) is dished up, followed by vegetables in a spicy peanut butter (salat aswat) that’s similar to satay. Chef Abdoulie Sallah has a glow belying his 70-something years of age. After working at a variety of restaurants, Mr Sallah savours the chance to cook his homeland meals. He and wife/co-proprietor Di Perdon regale rich tales of west African foods and cooking rituals as meals are supped. As part of Good Food Month, the kitchen is hosting a feast every November night. Live African music is being performed by Ghanan kora player Randy Borquaye on Saturdays this month. At Rob’s British Butcher, there’s a taste of his imaginatively-conjured sausages - including pork and leek, and basil, tomato and pork - and his
Christmas ham sweet-cured in marmalade for seven days. Beware the haggis, served inconspicuously in crumbed balls. An unsuspecting sampler spluttered when owner Rob Boyle informed her mid-chew. “It’s a lovely way to introduce it,” Mr Boyle said. “I thought it was like mushroom. That will never pass my lips again,” the sampler vowed. However, Mr Boyle is finding ‘olde food’ is new again selling and supplying loads of black pudding to large hotels, and British and Irish pubs. His preservative-free, award-winning meats are made to taste like “when Granddad made them”. All of this is the apertif for the main course, or rather courses, at a banquet of wines and foods at Afghan Rahimi Restaurant. The mountainous run-down was lamb and herb dumplings,
barberry-topped rice, lamb meatballs, charcoal-grilled lamb and chicken on sword-like skewers and fresh salads. Gracious host, Afghan-born Baryalai Rahimi, who assisted UN humanitarian efforts for people fleeing his homeland, has attracted high-flying chief executives, politicans from far and wide to his exotic, opulent restaurant. Having just moved into a new palatial site, the restaurant is drawing loyal lunchtime patronage from the nearby Government Services Office building. He worked hard for his restaurant’s top-notch reputation; toiling at three jobs as he paid for his four children’s private education. It was a fitting end to the tour; none were wanting for a crumb more. The next tour is on 26 November, 11am-2pm at a cost of $60. Bookings on 8571 1377.

40TH ANNIVERSARY ENDEAVOUR HILLS
DJ
A Star Advertising Feature
Looking good for its age By LACHLAN MOORHEAD BLOW out the candles and take a walk down memory lane - Endeavour Hills is turning 40. Residents throughout the suburb are being called on to support the 40th anniversary of the first land sales in Endeavour Hills this month through a range of activities. Planned celebrations include an art competition for primary school age children, a historical photo display and oral history recordings by local residents, as well as a talk on the history of the suburb at the Endeavour Hills library tonight, Monday 18 November at 7pm. Early images of the developing suburb will be on display at Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre for the next 10 days. Peggy Clark, who has lived in Endeavour Hills since November 1972 and has contributed photos to the historical display, moved to the area when there were roughly only six houses there and farm land stretched for almost as far as the eye could see. “We had friends who lived in Doveton so we used to visit the area before we bought land there,” she explained.
“It wasn’t flat, we liked the undulation. Now there’s a shopping centre, transport. It used to be very peaceful but now you get a lot of traffic.” While times have certainly changed in Endeavour Hills, Ms Clark’s memories of the suburb’s beginnings remain etched in her mind. “It used to be an area where people dropped their stray cats off and we used to take them in,” she said. “People also used to knock on our door when their cars got bogged in the paddocks. It was quite funny.” Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan recently met with Ms Clark who showed him her photos of an early Endeavour Hills with grassy paddocks, empty roads, a few framed houses and newly laid roads. Mr Donnellan said a display was the perfect opportunity to reflect on the origins of Endeavour Hills, which dates back to the 1830s. “You will see over 80 streets in Endeavour Hills named in honour of Captain Cook and his crew,” Mr Donnellan said. “This is a great opportunity for local residents to reminisce,
Endeavour Hills became home to many young families building their first home.
The Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre was one of the first pieces of infrastructure built in the new suburb.
Town in need of a heart By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS
Endeavour Hills was one of Melbourne’s fringe suburbs in the early 1970s. dig out their old photos and memories of Endeavour Hills and share them with the community for display at the Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre, as part of the celebrations.”
AN OVERDUE town centre in Endeavour Hills is on the drawing board but not soon enough to celebrate the suburb’s 40th anniversary. First-term City of Casey councillors Rafal Kaplon and Rosalie Crestani have lobbied Casey Council to fast-track the project to build a hub to draw its residents together in the suburb’s heart. Currently, Australia Day or New Year’s Day events are not even held in the suburb because there are no suitable venues. The councillors say an under-used space between the library, shopping centre and community house could be made more appealing with the addition of an alfresco café area and a skate park. It would complement the gymnasium, which is being given a $2 million revamp. Cr Kaplon said the result could be a safe, open and ac-
cessible congregation place for the young, old and their community groups. “It’s a very fragmented area at the moment. “For such a high-density area, there’s no community meeting place to come together and celebrate,” Cr Kaplon said. “Even in the shopping centre, there’s no place to meet.” The idea had been kicked around and shoved aside many years ago. Cr Crestani said Endeavour Hills hadn’t lacked funding in the past but that it had it was just needed to maintain basic infrastructure. “Money is being spent but not on new infrastructure or innovative ideas. “There’s the Fountain Gate (shopping centre) extension and Narre Warren street works - we don’t want to see Endeavour Hills drop off.” Cr Kaplon said prior to his and Cr Crestani’s agitations, the council had first planned
to postpone the project for another 20 years. The two councillors successfully pushed for a $150,000 master plan to be completed early next year. Their hope is for funding for building works by next July. Cr Kaplon expects the project to cost about $3million in up to four years. “It’s very overdue. That’s why we’ve made it the top priority for our term. “On the other hand, it’s very timely - there’s an ageing population, the suburb is getting rundown and it’s time to revitalise Endeavour Hills in its 40th year. “I think the residents deserve it. ” Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan, who is based in Endeavour Hills, said he hoped residents and user groups would be consulted during the masterplan’s creation.

But before you visit, it’s time to revise you expectations of how different a home can be - and how refreshing it is to find a builder with a real price list up-front. Both these homes redefine value by offering architecturally designed houses at affordable prices. The defining hallmarks are perhaps the picture windows (usually only found in more expensive homes), exceptional attention to detail, plus innovative sun courts that flood interiors with sunlight and actually increase the usable space inside. Back this up with standard
inclusions such as porcelain tiles, Smeg appliances, Franke sinks, quality carpets and stone benchtops throughout.
LIMITED EDITION Arden really does set out to be different with its concept of affordable luxury - it almost defines a new category in the market. Add in design flexibility, limited build numbers and you are virtually living in a limited edition home. The Milan 29 is a grand sweep of a house which fits in four good-sized bedrooms, a home theatre and sun court before opening out into kitchen living area. The ceiling above the dining area is raised, creating an unexpected sense of theatre and space.
THE BIG PICTURE The Votivo 42 makes an unambiguous statement about proportions and design. This is a home that redefines extended
family living and entertaining with a generous layout offering space and separation for everyone. A study and lounge downstairs are zoned to provide quiet and seclusion. At the rear, a home theatre allows uninterrupted viewing. Upstairs a large activity area for noisier playmaking contrasts with the privacy and of the master suite with its penthouse proportions, walk-in robe and glamorous ensuite. The meandering wetlands and waterways at Berwick Waters are almost the size of Albert Park Lake. The estate fosters a village atmosphere and is designed for the future with sustainable water management and a mix of new and established schools, transport, shopping, sports and other facilities. Contact Arden Developments on 8787 1302 or visit www. ardendevelopments.com.au for more information.

It is rare to find a one bedroom flat that is in easy walk to public transport (Sandown Station) or a property that has been recently renovated. It has been newly fitted out with tiles, bathroom accessories so this unit is ready to move in for living or to lease. The walls have been freshly painted and a new low maintenance floating floor installed. With an anticipated rental return of more than $200 per week, the selling agent says it makes perfect buying sense for the astute investor.

FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH IN SEVEN short years the thriving community at “Botanic Ridge Estate” located in the young suburb of Botanic Ridge has grown rapidly and offers the exclusive combination of larger-than-average block sizes and first-class community design. Since launching their first land release in 2005, Botanic Ridge Estate’s reputation as a premium residential destination has soared as over 2,000 new residents flocked to secure their share of this semi-rural prestige lifestyle. Botanic Ridge is a testament to the careful planning and design that has drawn new residents and reinforced the location’s liveability. The flourishing suburb was awarded a place within the top 10 “bulletproof” suburbs to invest in by the Australian Property Investment magazine earlier this year. Overseeing the estate’s growth, development manager Joe Cassera said their residents were attracted to the community’s emphasis on large lots for large homes and bigger backyards. Coupled with an abundance of parklands, jogging paths, interconnecting wetlands, parklands and playgrounds this is the perfect estate for a growing family and anyone wanting that extra space for a special lifestyle.
“With mature trees, parklands and wetlands flourishing all-year-round residents and their families take pride in the beautiful neighbourhood we have painstakingly designed. “We have preserved as much of the natural environment as possible so residents and their families can reap the benefits of a beautiful semi-rural lifestyle that is just a short commute to Cranbourne’s busy shopping precinct and facilities. “Purchasers choose to live at Botanic Ridge Estate because the community provides the opportunity to live in an established step-up community that offers more than just a block to build a house on - a family-friendly lifestyle. “The next few years will be very exciting for residents as new shopping, sporting and hospitality amenities approved in the ‘Botanic Ridge Precinct Structure Plan’ are established,” Mr Cassera said. Only a limited selection of supersized lots is available, ranging between 873 square metres to 2440 square metres from just $243,000. To find out more about Botanic Ridge, please contact the sales office on 9785 9339 or visit the website: www.botanicridge.com.au

40TH ANNIVERSARY ENDEAVOUR HILLS
A Star Advertising Feature
Shopkeeper sees centre grow By BRIDGET COOK SHANE Bakian has literally seen the suburb of Endeavour Hills develop around him - right from his shopfront. He was one of the original tenants of the Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre when it opened its doors in 1979. Mr Bakian said he had watched the centre expand around him, and housing and development pop up around the centre over the past 40 years. He opened the Bakian Fruit Village in what was a small shopping complex that contained just a Safeway supermarket and chemist in 1979. He sold the fruit shop in 1999, but remained a tenant opening the Bon Appetit Delicatessen.
“Safeway and myself are the only original tenants left,” he said. “It was very different back when we opened. There was basically nothing around the centre, with new housing estates just being developed. “You could buy land nearby then for $20,000 to $25,000. “The make up of the suburb has changed a lot as well. In the early days it was mostly people of European background. “Now our customers are very multicultural, with people from all backgrounds including Sudanese, Afghans, Lebanese, Palestinians and Polish.” Mr Bakian said the shopping centre had expanded a lot, now boasting more than 70 tenants. “In the late ’80s and early
’90s the centre went through a big change,” he said. “A Big W was added first, then the centre was developed to cater for more shops. A Coles was opened and lots of new sections were included.” Mr Bakian said his business had always been successful, apart from when the Hallam Bypass opened. “The centre was affected a lot when the Hallam Bypass opened. We had a lot of passer-by traffic from Heatherton Road, but that stopped a bit. “Human nature is always to go where is easier, and we were no longer the easy option. It wasn’t just me that lost business but the whole centre. “Things have picked up again since then, though.”
Shane Bakian, who owns the Bon Appetit Delicatessen, was one of the first tenants of the Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre. Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
Tracks back in time By LACHLAN MOORHEAD WHEN Kevin Clark drives through Endeavour Hills he still recalls the old streets, the old families and the old stories - now just memories, much like the dirt roads. “Progress was one thing I had to adapt to, seeing all this land change from farm land. “I could take you for a trip around and I could tell you all the original farmers. Even a lot of the roads,” Kevin said on the eve of the suburb’s 40th anniversary. “There were family farms and businesses that I grew up with and then you see it all kind of gone. “Those family ties, a lot of them pioneering families in the area, have just been cut.” But for all his nostalgia Kevin, a retired farmer and current pastor at the South Eastern Christian Centre in Endeavour Hills, believes the suburb’s development has been an advantage, particularly the shopping centre. “Everyone from Hallam, Narre North and even Belgrave, instead of going into Dandenong, they came
here for a lot of their shopping. “That changed the dynamic because Dandenong was the absolute monstrous hub of all of Gippsland at that stage and that was a very big change, that fact that quite a good shopping centre was introduced here. It wasn’t as big as it is now but it had the essentials.” Kevin has spent most of his 63 years living throughout the south-east corridor, juggling a lot of his time between working on a Cranbourne vegetable farm and volunteering at the church. “My early childhood was in Dandenong, then we moved out to Hallam and then we had a dairy farm at Narre Warren North so, of course, we’ve been travelling through here (Endeavour Hills) for years. “We moved back here about 16 years ago. “We were growing vegetables down the other side of Cranbourne but I chose to move back here because this is more of my stomping ground.” The ‘we’ Kevin talks about is his wife Sandy, who was instrumental in
introducing him to the other love of his life - his church. Kevin started attending church in 1988 following the death of Sandy’s aunt, Ev, the same year the South Eastern Christian Centre moved to its current site in Gleneagles Drive. “Her aunty had been a Christian a long, long time. What changed was that San’s aunty died and I went to the funeral and I just really got upset with it because she was such a lovely lady,” Kevin said. Kevin began with Bible school at the centre, eventually becoming an elder in the early 1990s and now plays a pivotal role in travelling to Cambodia to assist in children’s education. “We started employing Cambodian people (on the vegie farm) and they started coming to the Christian centre, a couple of them, and now we’ve built quite a Cambodian community here in the church,” he said. “We’ve actually built a church within a church and out of that we’re doing quite a bit of work in Cambodia. I go over there twice a year and we’re teaching kids English.”
Kevin Clark, a former farmer and Endeavour Hills pastor, has a strong affinity with the suburb which harks back to its origins. Picture: MEAGAN ROGERS But while Kevin may travel regularly, he has no doubt as to where his home is. “Endeavour Hills is where I have very strong family roots with,” he said.
Visitors drawn to school market By LACHLAN MOORHEAD STUDENT leadership has reached new levels at Gleneagles Secondary College in Endeavour Hills. The year nine Student Leadership class from Gleneagles, along with the school’s parents and friends association, is in the process of planning a market day next month for the local community. Lynne Moller, the student leadership class teacher and school librarian, said the market would help educate the students about how to work within a team. “The year nine students are running the whole thing in conjunction with the parents and friends association and have been dropping off flyers and going to other classes to promote the event,” she said. “It’s about bringing the Endeavour Hills community together.” The market day will be held at the school in Reema Boulevard on Saturday 7 December from 10am to 3pm. The event will include a host of stalls with a range of items on offer, including Christmas cards, phone accessories, footy cards and popcorn, just to name a few. “We want to make connections, build relationships, and create cross-cultural
“What I say is that it’s half an hour from everything. “We’re half an hour from Melbourne, we’re half an hour from the beach and half an hour from the bush.”

40TH ANNIVERSARY ENDEAVOUR HILLS
Council slams sales endeavour By CASEY NEILL ENDEAVOUR Hills was slammed for “flaunting Captain Cook in all his glory” when the suburb was born. “I thought we were going to make a stand against this commercial jazz,” Berwick City councillor Syd Pargeter said in November 1973 during a council debate over a large bronze statue of the explorer. “How did Captain Cook ever get mixed up in selling houses?” he said. “The name Endeavour Hills is a prostitution of his history.” Well-known radio identity Norman Banks had unveiled the statue in Joseph Banks Crescent, Endeavour Hills, the previous day. His forebear, Sir Joseph Banks, was the botanist aboard the HMS Endeavour on Cook’s first voyage of discovery. The statue, by sculptor Marc Clark, was at the time said to be the most authentic likeness yet. Cook and the Endeavour were the motive and theme of the sales and promotional effort of Endeavour Hills Pty Ltd, which owned more than half the land in the new suburb. All the major roads and streets were named after the en-
The Captain Cook statue in the Fitzroy Gardens. tire crew of the Endeavour. “Isn’t this in the form of an advertisement even if it isn’t a sign?” councillor Jan Bateman said during the statue debate. Councillor John Thomas said: “To have taken notice of it
is in itself some form of encouragement. We’d be better off to ignore it.” Cr Pargeter unsuccessfully moved a motion that a letter be sent to Endeavour Hills Pty Ltd asking “should a statue flaunting Captain Cook be used to sell houses?”. A second part of the motion was then put and carried, asking the developer to move the statue to Endeavour Hills Technical School when it was no longer required. But that’s not where it ended up. Harry Nicholls from the Nicholls Gledhill real estate agency in Endeavour Hills auctioned the property that now houses the ambulance station. “And on that site there was a life-sized statue of Captain Cook,” he said. “One bloke thought he might like to buy it as a garden gnome.” Mr Nicholls instead spoke to the State Government and had it donated to City of Melbourne for display near Cook’s Cottage in the Fitzroy Gardens. It was installed in July 1997. “And that’s where it really should have been, anyway, rather than in someone’s backyard as a garden gnome,” he said.

Suburb maintains image By CASEY NEILL ENDEAVOUR Hills was “premier land” when it first went on the market in the early 1970s. And Les Donaldson from Narre Warren real estate agents Donaldson Martin and Co said it remains a popular suburb today. “Because you’ve got the shopping centre, you’ve got good schools,” he said. “It’s got wonderful access into the city, you’ve got wonderful sporting facilities and many golf clubs, and it’s only a stone’s throw into Dandenong. “Today you can jump on the freeway and when the market’s good it’s less than 25 minutes into the CBD.” Mr Donaldson said the initial land release sold “very, very well”. “It was quite beautiful land, magnificent land, undulating,” he said. “A lot of people, they’ve got views back over down to the bay and also back over into the city. It was considered quite an exciting development. They could see to the Waverley Park footy ground and back into the Dandenongs.” He said the area was marketed to “normal people who wanted to have their family there”. “When it was developed... Dandenong was quite an exciting and vibrant city,” he said. “A lot of people who would live at Endeavour Hills would have worked or owned businesses within close proximity.” Mr Donaldson said variable land size was another drawcard. “From the ordinary 650 square metres up to one acre,” he said. Harry Nicholls established Nicholls Gledhill’s Endeavour Hills branch in 1987. “We tried to get an office in Endeavour Hills up at the main shopping centre but the real estate agent that managed the shops at the time didn’t want another real estate agent in there,” he said.
An advertisement for land in Endeavour Hills from the Dandenong Journal, November 1973. “We found this block of land here and there was a board on the front. “We bought this block and built these shops here (in Raymond McMahon Boulevard).” Mr Nicholls’ team was then selling vacant home sites for about $30,000. “Most of the new homes were sold at that time for prices of $125,000 to $150,000,” he said. “We sold many new homes in Hensley Court for around $140,000 each. “The same homes today would probably sell at $450,000-plus.”

School’s mini-multiculture By LACHLAN MOORHEAD JOHN Hurley sees the multiculturalism at Thomas Mitchell Primary School as a simile for Endeavour Hills. Into his 22nd year as principal, Mr Hurley has watched Thomas Mitchell develop from its inception in 1991, with less than 300 students, to a thriving school which now caters for more than 800 children from a plethora of international backgrounds. In more than two decades of teaching in Endeavour Hills, Mr Hurley said the suburb’s internationalism has evolved over the years. “In the early ’90s it was much more European multicultural whereas now its world multicultural and I think that’s where the big difference is. “In those days there were many students from Greece and Eastern Europe, Romania. “There was a breakdown where Croatia and Serbia were together and then they broke apart and it was a bit of a difficult time and we had a lot of families from that community that left and came here.” Mr Hurley refers to the breakup of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s which occurred after a series of political upheavals and conflicts which primarily affected Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia. A former principal at Cranbourne Primary School, Mr Hurley said it was this influx of international families into Endeavour

Hills that originally drew him to the position at Thomas Mitchell. “For me the ultimate satisfaction for a job would be to start your own school, so I decided that was what I wanted to do. There were three schools opening at the one time. “There was Coral Park, Thomas Mitchell and the other was Maramba. “I did some research and the information I came up with was that this would be the most interesting school to start - most interesting because of the multicultural community.” More than 20 years later Mr Hurley continues to advocate for internationalism within the school, guiding Thomas Mitchell to reflect and promote the multiculturalism of Endeavour Hills. “Two and a half, three years
ago, we started Islamic studies as part of the religious education program. “We now have as many kids going to Islamic studies as go to Christian education,” he said. “Next year we’re starting up Buddhism as well. We’re starting to cater for all the community.” Reflecting on the suburb’s growth over the past 40 years, Mr Hurley said there was no doubt of the community pride now carried by residents from Endeavour Hills. “I think there’s a lot more community mindedness, I think that people are proud to be in Endeavour Hills whereas I think initially people may have seen it as just sort of Dandenong on the hill, or even Springvale on the hill,” Mr Hurley said. “There are sports teams that are from Endeavour Hills now.”

FIRE ACTION WEEK
Fire warnings: vital information LAST year, Victoria experienced more than 4400 bush and grassfires. Fire warnings are issued when a fire has started and you need to stay informed and take action. There are three different levels of warnings – Advice, Watch and Act, and Emergency Warning. Warnings aren’t necessarily issued in any order – fires can start and spread so fast the first warning issued could be an Emergency Warning. It’s your responsibility to understand the different types of warnings and how to access them. You should never wait to receive an official warning before you leave. Bushfires can start, spread and become uncontrollable quickly – threatening homes and lives within minutes. There are different situations when you might need to monitor and check for fire warnings and updates: On a hot, dry, windy day when fires can start suddenly at any time During summer, check regularly for updates
· ·
a fire risk day when · On you’ve left early or are preparing to do so
the route planned is · Ensure safe and stay up to date about fires in your area so you know when it’s safe to return If you can see or smell smoke in the air and you want to find out what’s going on. Check for signs of fire in your area Always be aware of conditions around you such as smoke, flames, embers and noise. Look and listen for information for surrounding towns if your suburb or town may not be mentioned, and stay in touch with family, friends and neighbours for extra sources of information.

Detailed plan to play safe YOU’VE cleared the gutters, cut back the grass and tackled the undergrowth – but that might not mean that you are fully prepared for fire this summer. CFA chief officer Euan Ferguson said research showed Victorians were great at carrying out the easy to do preparation tasks in the lead-up to the fire season. “But it’s actions like talking to your CFA brigade about the risk where you live and making a decision with your family about when you’ll leave and where you’ll go that could save your life,” he said. Fire risk varies from city fringe areas next to grassland to rural areas close to grass or bushland. For information on the risk in your area and tips on leaving early, you can talk to your local CFA brigade or visit cfa.vic.gov.au. Fire planning and preparation should include a conversation with your household at the start of summer about when you will leave before a fire and where you will go. You also need to decide where you will shelter if you get caught out and cannot leave your property or area. “Make sure everyone you live with knows these plans, so you’re all clear about what you’ll do on a fire risk day,” Mr Ferguson said. “You should also pack an emergency kit at the start of summer, you’re ready to go any time. This should include important paperwork and essentials like mobile phones, medications, change of clothes and water. If your kit is already packed, it’s easier to grab it and go. “Finally, remember to talk to
friends, family and neighbours who may need help leaving early before a fire,” he said. “The responsibility for surviving the fire season is shared between emergency services and the community – we all share the responsibility for our community’s safety,” he said. Plan and prepare for fire this summer: Do you understand the fire risk where you live? Talk to your local CFA brigade and find out your level of risk, or visit cfa.vic.gov.au Talk to your household about what you’re going to do on a fire risk day, where you’ll go and when you’ll leave Pack an emergency kit so you’re ready to go. For more information on what to include, go to cfa.vic.gov.au Download the FireReady smartphone app Plan ahead so you don’t have to make decisions at the last minute For more information on planning and preparation this summer, go to cfa. vic.gov.au or call the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Top service captures hearts By CASEY NEILL POLISH Rye Crust Bakery brings a taste of Poland to Dandenong. Last Tuesday owners Hanna and Andrew Lipiszko took home the Central Dandenong Retailer of the Year award. Dandenong Retail Traders’ Association (DRTA) invited customers to vote for their favourite retailer, with Polish Rye Crust Bakery, A1 Bakery, Angie’s Massage, Efka’s Café and Ritchies IGA Supermarket the finalists. The Lipiszkos also made the final five last year and Andrew was thrilled the Foster Street store went one better this time. “We try to provide all of our customers not just with good and fresh food, but also with an experience that will make them want to come back to Dandenong for more,” he said. Mr Lipiszko and his wife Hanna received the award at the DRTA Christmas dinner, annual general meeting and business awards at the Dandenong Club on 12 November. “We bring a part of Poland to Dandenong by showcasing traditional Polish hot dishes and breads that are so popular back
home and always with a smile,” Mrs Lipiszko said. DRTA president Glenys Cooper was returned to the position for another year, and said 2013 was not the year she and the committee had envisaged. “But what a journey!” she said. “Top priority was to renew hope for all those retailers and in fact all businesses within central Dandenong that have struggled with the enormous changes we have undergone over the past eight years or so. These included the Revitalising Central Dandenong project, Fountain Gate’s expansion and Myer closing, she said. Ms Cooper said DRTA achieved a new logo and Facebook presence this year, held regular meetings with the council and networking nights and surveyed traders on car parking and other hot topics. The group didn’t achieve its goal of getting customers back into central Dandenong. “This is a long-term challenge. Steps have been put into place and our focus will continue,” she said. Lights at Robinson Street, right turns into Lonsdale Street and freeing up customer car
parking also remain on the todo list. “For many businesses motivation, income and customers have been at an all-time low,” Ms Cooper said. “However, some are beginning to prosper as they overcome the struggles of the past.” Guest speaker Gary Castricum urged traders to see out new ways to bring customers to their door, and particularly to get dollars from the thousands of workers coming into Dandenong every day. Mr Castricum said the recent Dandenong Market redevelopment was essential to Dandenong’s future, and rejuvenating Dandenong Plaza would play an important role. “They’re certainly making every possible effort to get the centre revitalised,” he said. “The Plaza requires considerable investment in capital and marketing.” Mr Castricum said improving public image was a major priority, as was adapting to changes and seeing opportunities.

Happy bids at auction KEYSBOROUGH residents dug deep to help raise money for Ronald McDonald House earlier this month. Staff at McDonald Real Estate and McDonald’s Keysborough, on the corner of Cheltenham and Perry roads, joined forces for the fourth year in a row on Saturday 9 November in support of McHappy Day. McHappy Day raises money for Ronald McDonald House in Parkville, which is dedicated to providing a home away from home for families with a serious-
ly ill child undergoing specialist paediatric care at the Royal Children’s Hospital. Donated items were auctioned by McDonald Real Estate directors Le Hoa and John Wysham, while the restaurant managers Daniel Chadeyras, Alastair Mortier, Jason Grech and Nikki Peut all pitched in holding up items, spruiking a few bids and even throwing in the odd bid themselves. The event raised more than $6300.

Teachers learn how to build careers By CASEY NEILL MANUFACTURERS in Melbourne’s south-east need young workers to bolster their ageing workforce, and high youth unemployment continues to trouble the region. “Those two problems shouldn’t be able to co-exist,” Beacon Foundation’s Duncan McKimm said. And that’s where the national not-forprofit steps in with Manufacturing XL. With help from South East Business Networks (SEBN) it brings together businesses and schools to provide pathways into apprenticeships, traineeships and entry-level jobs. What’s stopping young people entering the field? Mr McKimm said it’s a lack of awareness of the opportunities available and misconceptions about what a career in the industry involves.
“It’s about design and engineering know-how rather than muscle and dirty welding-bays,” he said. “When you ask kids ’what is manufacturing?’ most kids don’t have any idea.” Beacon’s aim is to inform students so they can make a choice to enter manufacturing. On 31 October, Hallam Senior College and Keysborough College teachers toured four manufacturers to help them bring business into the classroom. “How to use the stuff businesses do every day to teach the curriculum,” Mr McKimm said. They visited Fantech in Dandenong South, Norden in Dandenong, Britannia in Mulgrave and Erntec in Scoresby to help them understand the manufacturing opportunities available to students. “Teachers can’t know everything about
every industry, so it’s our job to help explain and show them what those industries are all about,” Mr McKimm said. “There’s so much more to a job than a job description. “The idea of the day was that we’d develop a class with each one of those businesses that they’d then go and deliver before the end of the year.” These presentations are called ‘business blackboards’ and bring manufacturers into the classroom to teach a lesson based around their daily tasks. From there students can tour the manufacturer, apply for work experience and get guidance on study and job opportunities. Keysborough Secondary College teacher Peter Green was on the tour. He said kids regularly asked “what am I going to use this for?” during lessons and he could now give them some examples.

Dr Poonam Arora, an obstetrician and gynaecologist at St John of God Berwick Hospital said: “Each year approximately 25,000 babies are born early in Australia (before 37 weeks’ gestation). “However, despite the rate of pre-term birth increasing, couples can be reassured that more babies survive and thrive when born early due to improved medical advances and techniques.” Dr Arora said that approximately one third of babies born as early as 24 weeks will now survive but may suffer from a life-impacting health condition. “By 28 weeks the survival rate improves significantly to almost 90 per cent and at 32 weeks, the survival rate is almost 100 per cent with generally very treatable associated health issues occurring, if any at all.” However, Dr Arora points to

DISCRIMINATION IN ADVERTISING IS UNLAWFUL The Victorian Equal Opportunity Act 1995 makes it unlawful for an advertiser to show any intention to discriminate on the basis of sex, pregnancy, race, age, marital status, political or religious belief or physical features, disability, lawful sexual activity/sexual orientation, HIV/AIDS status or on the basis of being associated with a person with one of the above characteristics, unless covered by an exception under the Act. As Star News Group could be legally liable if an unlawful advertisement is printed, Star News Group will not accept advertisements that appear to break the law.

Thunder... out of nowhere By JARROD POTTER WHETHER or not the National Premier League model is rolled out next year, Dandenong Thunder will be ready. In anticipation of the revised league structure, coming in either in 2014 or 2015, the Thunder has moved ahead of the rest of the competition by appointing the NPL-mandated position of technical coaching director and with it has come a new head coach. These two men are extremely well known in Victorian soccer circles, with 2013 Thunder coach Stuart Munro taking on the technical coaching director position, leaving an opportunity for former Southern Stars’/Green Gully coach Dean Hennessey to take charge of the Thunder. A difficult 2013 campaign has been put behind the Thunder, with the issues of the league lockout and exodus of championship winning coach Chris Taylor and a number of senior players at the transfer window deadline. Hennessey still can’t believe how quickly it came about - a surprise phone call on Monday from Munro lead to an interview on Wednesday and before he knew it, the top job in Dandenong soccer belonged to him. “It’s all come out of left field,” Hennessey said. “The opportunity has come here purely because Stuart has wanted a change in direction and I think to further his career he’s looking to do the director of coaching and he thinks that’s the extension from his vast experience as a player and a coach. “That’s where the opportunity arose, Stuart rang me on Monday and asked if I would be interested in looking at it and I said absolutely. “I was keen to get back in and it really went from there. “Really excited, looking forward to it and it’s just one that has popped out of nowhere.”
Hennessey is glad to be on-side with the Thunder now, after a career spent coming to George Andrews Reserve as opposition - first as a player then through coaching with Essendon Royals, Southern Stars and Green Gully this season. “I remember playing against them in the midto-late nineties… Billy Wright was playing in those days and they always had a big crowd,” Hennessey said. “We didn’t know who they were - but that’s when I first got to know the club and that was while I was at Richmond in 1996-97. “From there when I got into coaching, with Essendon Royals, we got promoted together, their first Premier League game was against Essendon when I was coaching and then Southern Stars, being a local rival. “There was a game here, a 1-1 draw, we needed to win to get a chance for promotion, they needed a draw and they got it. It was a great game and I have always thought this place is hard to come play at, whether as a coach or a player, and hopefully on the reverse side it will be hard for teams to come here and get a result.” Dandenong Thunder committee member Sezar Jakupi said Hennessey was a boon for the club and the 1-2 combination of Munro/Hennessey in the top coaching positions will drive Dandenong back up the ladder in years to come. “We’re delighted - it’s an unbelievable coup,” Jakupi said. “Two professionals, people with great accreditation and experience and exactly what we need at this point to drive the club forward. “It’s a landmark moment and there are big things ahead for the club.” In other Dandenong Thunder news, the $750,000 redevelopment of George Andrews Reserve is set to start soon, with the club hoping the refurbishments to the facility are completed by next year’s season opener.

Stingray talent on the line By JARROD POTTER
By JARROD POTTER MIXED results fell Dandenong’s way in WNBL Round 7 action, with the Rangers besting Logan at home on Friday night before falling to Sydney away. Dandenong took a while to get going on Friday night, down at one stage 8-17 as former Ranger Tegan Cunningham (16pts) drilled eight in the first five minutes. The turnaround came from down town as the Rangers’ long-rangers Jenna O’Hea (24pts, 5ast) and Leilani Mitchell (16pts, 7rebs, 6ast) and Alice Kunek (14pts, 5reb) hit their straps. From there Dandenong blew the lead out to 20 points before Logan found its way back into the game late via Sarah Graham (14pts), but it wasn’t enough and the Rangers held on for a 95-82 victory. Dandenong coach Mark Wright on Friday night said: “We’re happy with the win, after last week we needed the win.” “There were some good signs - I thought defensively we had some good periods. “They (Logan) started off on fire, like a replica of the Canberra game, but we shot the hell out of it from the three-point line and gave ourselves a chance to get back into the game. “We’re a work in progress, and we all know our defence, while I don’t think it’s bad, I just think we have lapses at

Rohanee Cox (19pts, 6reb) and Lauren King (16pts) ignited the Flames while Casey Samuels (11pts) drilled her threepointers to give Dandenong a taste of its own medicine.
For the Rangers Kayla Pedersen (13pts, 12reb) finished the weekend on a high after her Friday night match was curtailed by foul trouble, and Natalie Novosel (11pts, 12reb) also excelled. Dandenong put its feet up for Round 8 WNBL action with a bye, before squaring off against Melbourne at home in the second instalment of the cross-town showdown against the Boomers.
DRAFT day looms for the next crop of AFL footballers, with the Dandenong Stingrays hopeful of getting a number of players selected at Thursday’s AFL National Draft. Dandenong had a great season collectively, snaring second spot and a grand final berth against the Eastern Ranges, but individual accolades were sparse, with very few players receiving AISAFL scholarships or securing a run for Vic Country in the National Championships. Of the Stingrays’ cadre of talented players, all eyes have turned towards Dandenong’s premier pair - Billy Hartung and Zak Jones - with the pair unlikely to be left undrafted for very long. Dandenong coach Craig Black believes Hartung and Jones rank among the best he’s ever seen and their results through the National Championships, TAC Cup and National Combine speak of their immense talent. “Billy’s attitude to succeed is right up there, as you saw at the draft camp (Combine) he ran a 16.6 and set the record there and is probably one of the better kicks I’ve seen come through this program,” Black said. “Lachie Whitfield (2012 number-one draft pick) was an outstanding kick and I think Billy has probably got a bit more penetration on his

He was the first to training and always after feedback to improve.” Black also believes players like James Harmes, Josh Pickess, Brady Egan, Jordan Bastinac and Dale Gawley could get their names read
out at the draft or the National Rookie Draft later this month. “I think Josh Pickess is there around the mark, maybe a Jordy Bastinac - they both show really good qualities,” Black said. “Josh when he can run on to the footy, Jordy with his ball use is fantastic. “Outside that maybe even a Dale Gawley - a young 18-year-old who can play a few positions and even a Brady Egan who came in as a 19-year-old and played well as a forward.” The AFL National Draft will be televised on FOXTEL on Thursday.

Top dogs chase top carrot By DAVID NAGEL SANDOWN Park will be rocked to its foundations on Thursday night as Australia’s fastest greyhounds battle it out for the nations’ biggest purse in the $500,000 Group 1 TAB Melbourne Cup (515m). Last year’s edition of the classic attracted a bumper crowd of almost 4500 people and another huge turnout is expected to see if Pearcedale training wizard Jason Thompson can make it back-to-back wins in the cup. Thompson - who put the polish on last year’s winner Got A Moment - prepares Black Magic Opal, who will start a warm favourite after stopping the clock in a sizzling 29.41 in his heat. Bought for $120,000 by the Black Opal Syndicate, the son of Magic Sprite-Awesome Opal pinged from box six, setting a new first split record and equalling the second split mark before racing away to record his sixth consecutive win. Black Magic Opal’s biggest threat could come
from the only greyhound drawn on his inside, Shifty Sticka, who won his way through to the final with an impressive win in 29.54. Paul Anderton’s pup, the youngest greyhound in the series, has been placed in each of his 19 career starts - winning 11 - and attracted considerable interest from punters when he opened at $31 to win the cup. Anderton has been involved in the sport for an age, and a win to Shifty Sticka would be his career highlight in his first major final. The oldest greyhound in the series, Proven Maddy, also won his way through to the final after capitalising on his rails draw to win in 29.43. Trained by Wayne Vassallo and handled by Karen Pitt, Proven Maddy has an impressive record of six wins from 14 starts at the Lightwood Road venue, and can really run some time, with a fastest instalment of 29.14. Proven Maddy can be a real handful in the kennels, with the calming hands of Pitt the only ones that can settle him down. The son of El Galo-Proven Lilly may have his race won or lost Shifty Sticka will be looking to give his trainer Paul Anderton his first win in a major in Thursday night’s $500,000 TAB Melbourne Cup final at Sandown Park. 110340 Picture: CONTRIBUTED even before the lids fly back on Thursday. Peter Rocket powered his way into an eighth group final for Keith Hellmuth after winning his heat in 29.43, and will be joined by Robert Britton’s Iona Seven, winner of the opening heat in 29.51. Kiss Me Ketut backed up his win in last week’s Ready2Race auction final with an impressive Melbourne Cup heat win in 29.57, while Andrea Dailly has two chances to claim a second TAB Melbourne Cup with Hawk Alone (29.49) and Dyna Beth (29.70) securing their berths in the final. Another highlight on a program that includes four black-type races and over $750,000 in prizemoney will the running of the $145,000 Group 1 SOLO Bold Trease for the stayers over 715 metres. Rob Britton and Anthony Flores would appear to hold the key to the final, with half the runners.
SPIN THE SANDOWN SUPERWHEEL
The Britton pair of Lucy Wires and Cheetah Zorro will jump from boxes two and three respectively while Hurricane Isaac and Amity Flame will need luck for Flores after drawing the middle boxes. One in eight people on course will win a $25 Mystery Bet on the Melbourne Cup, while one random lucky person will spin the Sandown Superwheel, which will be carrying 52 prizes totalling $1.3 million including a $500,000 cash prize as well as cars and holiday packages to some of the world’s premier sporting events.

Swingin’ in the rain
Above - Another coat of paint could’ve had Lyndale’s Quyen Pham as a hat-trick victim for Heinz’s Michael Davies. 110336 Left - Parkfield’s Steven Spoljaric lifts another ball to the boundary en route to 101. 110337 Pictures: JARROD POTTER
By JARROD POTTER WHILE the rain may have played havoc in roundfour DDCA action, the cream still rose to the top as Steven Spoljaric (101) and Stuart Squires (137no) made batting look simple.
Parkfield v Springvale South Difficult conditions might’ve fazed the top order against Springvale South (1/5), but Parkfield (220) batting maestro Steven Spoljaric (101) failed to be challenged by it as he raced to his seventh Turf 1 century. The Bears’ top order suffered as Tim Ford (6/82) went on a rampage, but Spoljaric and Jack Jones (27) resisted the crumbling top
order effort to post a 77-run partnership, followed shortly by a 76-run stand between Spoljaric and Daniel Banhidi (45). The pair pushed Parkfield out of crisis before Spoljaric fell just after raising the bat. Banhidi found some help from the wagging tail to push Parkfield to 220 from its 77.2 overs. Yoshan Kumara (2/53) claimed the other pair.
North Dandenong v Buckley Ridges The lower order revival from North Dandenong (129) gave its bowlers something to play with as Buckley Ridges (7/62) collapsed in reply. The Norths’ top-order remained consistently fragile, with the first five batsmen contributing a cumulative 13 to the cause. Thankfully for North
Bulls in charge with ball By JARROD POTTER DESPITE what the scorecard suggests, it was an absolute minefield at Lakeside Drive Reserve with 21 wickets falling in Saturday’s VSDCA action - Roxburgh Park/Broadmeadows (50), while Noble Park (56 and 1/13) left the heavy lifting to its bowlers. The Bulls had to contend with solid bowling from the Roxburgh Park/Broadmeadows contingent and batted the
best they could as the bowlers ramped up the offensive. As bad as the batsmen had it, the bowlers loved their job - with Roxburgh Park/Broadmeadows opener Mitch Streiff (7/21) knocking over seven Bulls in his 15 overs. At 7/11, Noble Park was in a trouble to beat all other batting troubles, but the cooler heads of Jake Richardson (23) and Jake Bradshaw (13) prevailed to post something half-
way respectable for the Bulls to defend. Noble Park need not have worried about the total though, as Rizan Mawzoon (6/28) flung his destructive best at the home team. Mawzoon ran through the order and claimed a hat-trick in the process, giving the Bulls a surprising sixrun first-innings lead. The Bulls will resume at 1/13 next week as they look to extend a second innings lead.
Dandenong, the tail wagged. George Russell (49) fell one-short of a well-deserved half century while gaining strong support from Jurgen Andersen (23) and Nasrat Mulkezada (20). The Ridges would’ve been happy with that effort as Jeremy Kuru (3/36), Dan Haasbroek (3/22) and Richard Hope (3/21) did the damage. The response was disastrous for Buckley Ridges, falling to seven-down as Shane Clark (4/7) made amends for his mediocre batting earlier in the day with exceptional bowling. Buckley’s last hope remains with Antonio Greenidge (35no) and some help from the tail.
Lyndale v Heinz Southern Districts Lyndale (129) struggled away from home as Heinz Southern Districts (0/33) pushed most of the way to first innings points. Heinz bowler Michael Davies (5/48) was on fire as he almost took a hat-trick, only to be denied by Quyen Pham narrowly playing inside the hat-trick ball. Matt Cox (3/31) also got among the wickets before Achintha Rajapakse (21no) and Garrick Wiramanaden (12no) saw off the final 20 overs of the day. (No Lyndale scores available.)
Coomoora v Mordialloc While the rest of the Mordialloc (191) order struggled, it was prime territory for opener Stuart Squires (137no). Coomoora flew through the rest of the Bloodhounds’ attack, but couldn’t claim the match-defining wicket of Squires. Carrying his bat, Squires was exceptional as the Kangaroos could only hope to dismiss his team mates and leave the Mordialloc opener to his own devices. Tim Bacic (3/34) was miserly from his 22 overs while Lance Baptist (2/18) and Luke Vincent (2/54) also helped the bowling effort.
WHAT’S ON this week
James Wilcock starred for Dandenong with a five-wicket haul. 110335 Picture: JARROD POTTER
By the throat By JARROD POTTER DANDENONG (1/42) would be happy overall to restrict Prahran to 169, but will wonder what could have been as the visitors fell to 6/32 in round seven, Premier Cricket action on Saturday. James Wilcock had Prahran’s top order by the throat as he bowled rockets in tandem with Justin Butterfield (1/47). Their opening 13 overs reaped six wickets as Prahran failed to get set, including Australian batsman David Hussey (18) and former English all-rounder Dimiti Mascarenhas (3). Wilcock was on fire from the scoreboard end as everything reaped early rewards at Shepley Oval. After snaring a simple caught-and-bowled return from Hussey and a sharp catch from Cameron Forsyth to dismiss Matt Wilcox (0), the visitors were in peril at 6/32 and the Dandenong openers would’ve been preparing for a quick bat. However, Prahran had other ideas. James Miller (40) hunkered down and held off the early barrage with captain Sam Coates (16) also helping take the shine off the destructive newer ball. Prahran extended its spree as Nathan McNally (53) belted a half-century from number nine. Matt Willcocks (3/30) chipped in to help push aside Miller, Coates and McNally before the spin of Dan Doran (1/24) claimed the last wicket to dismiss the visitors for 169 off 78.3 overs. Taking their mark at the crease, Dandenong opener Tom Donnell (9) fell early to Miller (1/17) before Brett Forsyth (29no) and new recruit Andrew Gale (4no) stabilised the innings. The match resumes on Saturday at Shepley Oval.

MOTORING Proton shows power By EWAN KENNEDY A COMPACT family sedan from Malaysian manufacturer Proton, the Preve, comes downunder in two variants. The Preve GX five-speed manual and Preve GX sixspeed continuously variable automatic. Incidentally, Proton would like us to pronounce Preve to rhyme with cafe so as to give the new car a European flavour. Buyers can currently get a Proton Preve for the price of a Toyota Yaris or Mazda2, whereas it’s pretty much line ball with the larger Corolla or Mazda3. Upmarket features in his low-cost car include LED projector headlights and daytime running lights. This is a good sized car and Preve has generous leg, head and shoulder room for four adult occupants. It can carry up to five if those in the rear aren’t over wide. Mum, dad and three preteens fit easily. The boot is already a good size and the rear seat has a 6040 split folding function to take longer items. Hooks are positioned throughout the Preve and are ideal for clothing, bags and

packages. The top of the dash panel is made of a soft touch non-reflective material. The tilt adjustable, multifunction steering wheel carries controls for the audio and Bluetooth systems as well as mobile phone. The comprehensive instrument panel has both analogue and digital instrumentation. The onboard computer indicates distance travelled between two points for up to three trips and journey time. There’s information on approximate distance to empty, instantaneous fuel consumption, total fuel used and distance travelled since the last reset. In keeping with its sporty aspirations for the new car the Preve instrument panel is illuminated in red. The audio system, with AM/ FM radio, CD/MP3 player, USB and auxiliary ports, is located in the centre panel, which at its base includes the iPOD and Bluetooth ports, and a 12-

Two new transmissions a five-speed manual or CVT automatic with six driverselectable ratios - put power to ground through the Preve’s front wheels.
A comprehensive safety package includes six airbags including full-length curtain units. Crash prevention features include electronic stability control, traction control, ABS brakes, active front head rests,
reversing sensors and speedsensitive, door locking and unlocking. Proton Preve has achieved a five-star rating in crash testing. The ride and handling of the Preve are what you would ex-
pect from a vehicle with some Lotus input - better than average for its class. But the Preve leans in the direction of safety and comfort and is far from being a sporting model. The engine is on the dead side, which hardly comes as a surprise for its modest maximum output of 80 kilowatts, and has to be kept on song by good use of the transmission to get reasonable performance. Sparse cabin insulation lets in a harsh engine note, a necessary evil with high revving required to get the best out of an engine that doesn’t have a lot of power. The gearshift is on the rubbery side - but when it is allowed to shift at its preferred pace it isn’t too bad. The manual version we tested for the full week had petrol consumption that sat around five to seven litres per 100 kilometres on the motorway and in easy country driving. That consumption rose to nine to 11 litres in town due to the fact that the engine was working hard. Keep in mind that the bargain prices only apply until the end of 2013.

Juke is music to your ears By MURRAY HUBBARD THE Nissan Juke has styling that’s loved by some and hated by others. However this is a great driving SUV with a neat touch of sportiness. The front headlamps are the first styling cue to hit the senses. The headlamps split into two elements and are raised well above the mudguards. From the diver’s seat looking forward it’s a Porsche 911-like vista with the bonnet dropping away while the lights frame the view. The lights sit atop large wheel arches. At the rear there are matching large wheel arches that
spread wider than the body giving an aggressive stance. The shoulder line rises while the roofline drops giving a similar sporty appearance to Land Rover’s Evoque. The back window of the Juke is slanted dramatically. The dominating interior feature is a one-piece plastic centre console that houses the handbrake, storage and drink holders, as well as the gear shifter. But, it is shaped like a super bike fuel tank with the upper front raised higher to house the gear shifter. The second row of seats have a 60/40 split and when folded creates a large cargo area.
with preset ratios that give a sort of a manual mode. Nissan Juke Ti-S is quick off the mark with even a light touch of the accelerator, and provides instant up and go when needed.
The CVT is one of the better ones we have driven. We also like the ability to access the ‘gears’ to drive it manually. Six airbags are standard and

ST-S and Ti-S models get rear view camera, stability control, rain sensing wipers and auto on/off headlights with dusk detection. Nissan has produced a package that will appeal to sporty SUV buyers. Juke Ti-S accelerates quickly with little right-foot pressure and is eager to go at any speed. We took it along some badly corrugated dirt roads and it did feel a little uncomfortable in the back end. But, around bends it holds on beautifully with no sign of understeer. Our first driving impression is Wow. Can’t wait to live with a Nissan Juke for a week long test.
