Brigade fires up By REBECCA BILLS MOUNT Evelyn CFA members are dusting off old historic photographs of the brigade in preparation to celebrate 75 years in the town. First Lieutenant Rick Ventrella and firefighters Alan Plose, Kieran Simpson and Paul Simpson dug out some photos of the first trucks the station owned for the Mail last week.They said members were getting excited to mark the date with a celebration on Friday 8 August at the York on Lilydale and were taking a walk down memory lane gathering stories and photographs for the event.

ed as the preferred option for FoMEA. Mr Heenan said that was not the case, and that FoMEA has never wanted to exclude bike riders from the main track - only from the high conservation areas in the upper and lower tracks. He said the report also fails to mention the zoological significance of the area surrounding the aqueduct, including the areas discussed for potential trails in the report. Meanwhile, the YRMTB representatives said at the meeting that they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t familiar with some of the options presented. Councillor Terry Avery described the situation as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;communications breakdownâ&#x20AC;?, and said that neither group had reached a consensus on the matter. He moved for the item to be de-

ferred for a month, in order to allow for more consultation to take place on the matter. Billanook Ward Councillor, Maria McCarthy, said that while both groups were aware of a formal report being made to council, the lack of notification was an oversight. She said that the options presented to the council involved consultation with the groups over the last six months, and that council would continue working with the groups before the matter came up again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While council has deferred this item, it creates a good opportunity for officers to work further with the two groups over the coming weeks, to identify if an agreed view can be found.â&#x20AC;? The item will be brought before the council again on Tuesday, 22 July.

too, had no formal notification and had used the time leading to the item at the meeting to prepare. The council meeting began at 7pm on 24 June, and the item was not up before councillors until about 11pm. The item was ultimately deferred by councillors to Tuesday 22 July by councillors, after both groups expressed confusion with the material in the officerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report. One of the specific items of concern related to options for the future of the Mount Evelyn Aqueduct, and trails that had been closed for recreational use since 2012. In the report, option four - keeping the upper and lower aqueduct trails closed and restricting use of the main aqueduct trail to passive recreation, closing it for mountain biking - is list-

A FORMER Yarra Ranges mayor has lashed out at the council for not notifying groups that an item was before council until the day before the meeting. The council said the lack of notification was an â&#x20AC;&#x153;oversightâ&#x20AC;? and that the deferred item would be discussed with groups before it came up again. Former mayor, Tim Heenan, spoke on an item at last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s council meeting, concerning the Mount Evelyn Aqueduct Reserve and possible mountain bike trails. As current president of the Friends of Mount Evelyn Aqueduct (FoMEA), Mr Heenan said that he received no formal notification that the matter was coming before the council on the night.

He said he had seen hundreds of people attend council meetings over the years, unprepared for items due to a lack of notification. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People come up, and seeing the look on their face when they say they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what was on until a few hours ago - I now know how they feel,â&#x20AC;? Mr Heenan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The officers get the agenda on Tuesday night, and the letters go out the next morning - some people may not get the letter until Friday night,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you have a substantial development - and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t count the weekend - youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got two days to prepare. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fair.â&#x20AC;? Members of the Yarra Ranges Mountain Bikers (YRMTB) also spoke on the evening and expressed that they,

Police bear brunt of pursuit AN ESTIMATED $2500 worth of damage was caused to a police vehicle after a burglary at Lilydale High School turned into a pursuit last week. Police are now searching for a man who forced entry into the computer room at Lilydale High School on 21 June around 6am. Detective Sergeant Mark Smithwick said responding police saw the man leave in a vehicle which they pursued along Maroondah Highway. “Not far from the police station the car was left unoccupied rolling down a hill with police stopping it with their own car to stop it from going into oncoming traffic,” he said. It is believed the man didn’t get away with any computers. Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

A big win for day care By JESSE GRAHAM APPLAUSE echoed through the Yarra Ranges Council chambers last Tuesday night, when councillors elected to keep Family Day Care (FDC) services running in the shire. A motion on the table to end the provision of FDC was defeated in a six-to-three vote at the 24 June meeting, following over an hour of fierce debate on the matter. As a result, the FDC scheme, which services 101 families through 21 educators, will continue in the Yarra Ranges into the future. Originally slated as the 12th item on the agenda for the meeting, the proposal to end provision of the council’s FDC Scheme was pushed to first place by the councillors. This was to facilitate residents with children by not having to wait until late in the evening for the item to come up, and because the entire public gallery was filled with people opposed to the proposal.

The council officer’s report justified ending the service by stating that the scheme was unable to reach cost neutrality, with the council subsidising the scheme to the tune of $92,000. Yarra Ranges Council’s Director of Social and Economic Development, Ali Wastie, said that Federal Budget cuts and five other services operating in the municipality made it unsustainable. However, Councillor Samantha Dunn immediately took aim at the cost-neutrality argument, and said the scheme had been “set up to fail”, with council not actively recruiting educators. Cr Dunn also argued that the social impacts of ending the scheme were downplayed in the report. “For me, the report is incomplete, not factual, and I would even go as far as to say it is biased,” she said. “That is the first time I have said that about any report at Yarra Ranges Council.” A public submitter against

the proposal to end the services told the councillors that they used the FDC service, and had only found out the proposal would be discussed four days before the meeting. Debate on the matter ran for over an hour, and those in favour of closing the service often found themselves at the receiving end of jeers, indignant shouts or scoffs from the public gallery. Councillors Fiona McAllister, Len Cox, Noel Cliff, Samantha Dunn, Andy Witlox and Jason Callanan voted against ending the service, while councillors Jim Child, Terry Avery and Maria McCarthy were in favour. A new motion was then put forward and passed, which stated that council would provide FDC services and commit to enhance and grow the business, with a marketing campaign for additional educators. After hearing that the FDC services were saved, the gallery erupted in applause and cheers.

A SIEGE in Ferny Creek ended peacefully after a man called police threatening self-harm. Belgrave Sergeant Mick Hall said police received a call from a man not long after 1.30am on 25 June. “When police arrived, they noticed the man was holding a machete and had barricaded himself in his home,” Sgt Hall said. “The Critical Incident Response Team was called and they were able to negotiate with the male.” During negotiations, the man covered himself in petrol and threatened to set himself alight. But police were able to find a peaceful resolution and the 27-year-old man was arrested without incident and taken to Maroondah Hospital for treatment.

Brigade members shining through THEY put their lives on the line for community and are the ones who shine through in times of devastation and destruction. And this year, the Mount Evelyn Fire Brigade is celebrating 75 years as a brigade. Formed in 1939 under the leadership of Ted Varty, meetings were held in the Mount Evelyn Public Hall and various other locations throughout the town before funds were raised to build the station on York Road in 1975. And throughout all these years, the station, made up of volunteers, has always had one goal - to make Mount Evelyn a safer place to live. The Mail met with Mount Evelyn CFA First Lieutenant Rick Ventrella to run through some of the major events the brigade has attended. He said without doubt the 2009 Black Saturday Fires was one of the biggest events the brigade had ever been a part of. “We have also had our fair share of house fires in the last four to eight years, close to 10 or 12, which is a large amount. Mr Ventrella said his motivation for joining the CFA 11 years ago was to give back to the community. “I suppose that is the standard response people give but it is the truth,” he said.

IT’S a new stage for the Lilydale Uniting Church and Melba Support Services. Last Monday, settlement was reached and the keys handed over to Melba Support Services from St Andrews Uniting Church in Anderson Street, Lilydale. Melba’s association with the church dates back to its very first support service that was held in the church hall 40 years ago. Melba Support Services CEO Glenn Foard announced his organisation was now the proud owner of the church and described the hand over as a huge opportunity for Melba and the church. “It really is a huge milestone in Melba’s plans to provide greater housing choices for people with disability,” he said. The purchase comes as the organisation plans to increase housing availability for people with disabilities with plans to build 15 one, two and three bedroom units on land at the back of the church. “We all know that there is a great unmet need for affordable housing, particularly for people with disability. Mr Foard said Melba is often frustrated by the current system as it does not allow much choice for residents.

He said accommodation options for people with severe and profound disabilities are very limited and generally consist only of group homes where people live with four or five other individuals that they don’t know. “Currently, there are more than 1400 people with disabilities on the supported accommodation waiting list,” he said. “People that want to live by themselves or perhaps share with one other person are not able to do so as the options are just not there.” Chairwoman of the congregation Brenda McMinn said the agreement to sell to Melba guarantees the congregation will be able to use the church as a place of worship for years to come and, at the same time, advance the social justice mission of the church. “We have always had a good association both with Melba and other organisations that serve the community,” she said. Mr Foard said the next step will involve liaising with the council and seeking partners to help meet some of construction costs via a building fund that Melba is establishing. For more information on the project or the building fund, call Melba Support Services Community Relations Manager Belinda Wilson on 9760 8246 or email belinda. wilson@melbasupport.com.au.

Letters Separation of powers I REFER to three related and highly relevant to the Healesville community articles in the Mail on 24 June. The front page carried Jesse Grahamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story on the justified outrage of SHHAG at the State Government white-anting of their campaign for an independent business case study for the future of our hospital, by emailing the Mail with plans for a Health Department study. This comes from a department and minister who have cancelled meetings at the last minute and continually delayed supplying information to SHHAG, so we can imagine how balanced and soon that study will be. The second article, on page four, comes from the desk of our Federal Government member Tony Smith, announcing a Federal grant of $55,000 towards the truly independent study SHHAG are raising funds for. The third article, by Kath Gannaway on page seven, relating to the success of independent Cathy McGowan in the seat of Indi at the last Federal election, displacing long time representative Sophie Mirabella. With the announcement of Healesville resident Bruce Argyleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s independent candidature for the seat of Eildon at the upcoming state election and the attitude of the current state health minister, we are very likely heading for another independent candidateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success. The arrival in my letter box this week of issue two of Pulse from Eastern Health, â&#x20AC;&#x153;keeping me up to dateâ&#x20AC;?, with much chest thumping from the CEO, tells about what Eastern Health plans for our hospital. As I recall, this same CEO, at the initial public meetings delivered a fait accompli that was far from what we are being told now. I am sure this recent apparent

change of attitude and much PR from Eastern Health would not have occurred without the community backlash and the formation of SHHAG, but I wonder how long it will last. With the recent Yarra Ranges Council (YRC) decision to proceed with the closure of the Healesville tip, against the very vocal wishes of this community and the growing call for Healesvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s separation from YRC, there are some very significant lessons to be learnt from the Healesville Hospital situation. When authorities ignore community attitudes expressed through socalled consultations, they do so at their peril. A move for the rural wards to separate from YRC would have multiple benefits, as the new Eildon electorate is predominately rural, we would have our rural requirements far better served than now, a greater percentage of local rate revenue would be returned to the area and our hospital would then be firmly in rural territory. John Anwin, Healesville Action Group.

Find your voice UP FRONT, I want to say I am no longer part of the Save Healesville Hospital Action Group as I resigned at the start of the year due to an over-commitment with work and, unfortunately, a back injury. In saying that, I am passionately behind what SHHAG are trying to achieve on behalf of the Healesville community. The opposite can be said at every stage for the Hon. David Davis, Minister for Health. From day one of negotiations with SHHAG Minister Davis refused my involvement in any meetings. At the time I thought he mustnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like me, which isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anything new to me (which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure some readers will

agree with) but I truly believe I was excluded as I was the only member of SHHAG who was an experienced lobbyist. After reading New Health Study on page one of the Mountain Views Mail, 24 June, I believe he had the agenda set right from the start and working with our community was not part of his plan. Sure, he held several meetings with the group but on most occasions the group left with words but no commitments and now the efforts of SHHAG and the community have been side-swiped by the minister undertaking his own study demonstrating total arrogance by either the minister and or the State Government. There are many issues when it comes time for people to vote but a local rural hospital that serves the local community must be high on peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reasons when they go to the ballot box in November. No matter who runs in the new Eildon electorate, make sure your voice is heard. Make sure you tell Minister Davis, through the new local Liberal candidate, that we do not accept their cloak and dagger style communication. Millions of dollars have been promised but there is already so much waste at the hospital. The great portable training buildings near White Street are used half a dozen times a year and otherwise sit idle rather than being used as consultation suites for people like Dr Simpson, who was forced to leave Healesville due to lack of meeting rooms. Eastern Health had their mugs, pens, pads and posters printed quickly to show they won the Premierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Award for Community Engagement which is a joke and no doubt part of the State Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan to run straight over the top of our local support. The time has come for transparency and not some dictatorship report

but an independent report demonstrating what is best for our community. Come on Healesville - you have always been loud; you have always passionately stood up for what you believe in. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find your voice, get used to the trips to Maroondah for minor injuries, for respite, for maternity and for surgical recovery. Alexandra and Mansfield have better hospital facilities than we have, including a wider range of surgical procedures, so why donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the people of the Yarra Valley deserve the same? Finally, I would like to put on the record my disappointment in the whole political system as our local member knows what is best for our community but even her voice has been ignored by the State Government. So the question is are local members really listened to or do they just toe the party line and therefore why would anyone vote for any major or minor party. Perhaps the time for an independent is upon us. Kersten Gentle, Healesville.

These areas are frequented by families. I think the DEPI needs to rethink their strategies or face the consequences. L Ward, Warburton.

Loaded question

Safe path

AFTER reading your front page story (Calling The Shots, Upper Yarra Mail, 24 June) on hunting in the MillgroveWarburton area, I wish to also voice my outrage at such a cop-out by the DEPI who states â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complicatedâ&#x20AC;?. How complicated will it be when someone is shot, seriously injured or worse killed by a stray bullet. If a bullet is aiming at a target and misses what happens to that bullet? Unless youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re telling me that every hunter is a perfect marksman... right! Then save it for the Olympics, but not in our populated forests. I heard a gunshot while walking on the Aqueduct Trail during the day, and I have not been back.

Clever culture SO IT seems many of the cultural elite and â&#x20AC;&#x153;clever peopleâ&#x20AC;? clans and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;chaff-head-celeb-setâ&#x20AC;? are all for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;clever countryâ&#x20AC;? rhetoric of Labor (and Greens) pollies, yet are still opposing big business funding PM Tony Abbottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy of clever ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (having even cleverer babies?) paid maternity leave? Economic and productivity boosting reality: if even just half the highly paid very, clever ladies return (there should, be financial, penalties if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return long term!) to the workforce (after having even cleverer babies, of which 50 per cent will be â&#x20AC;&#x153;tiny wee, wily womenâ&#x20AC;?), wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Australia be at least half; again, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;cleverer countryâ&#x20AC;?? Howard Hutchins, Chirnside Park.

TO THE people that planned, paid and built the new east-west footpath from the Robyn Jane Child Care Centre, Kinder and Maternal and child health precinct to school. Thank you! It looks like it will be awesome when finished. We county folk arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too demanding - we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care that it runs northsouth. All that matters is that we can all get to school together, safely, even if we have to buy a big umbrella! At last our children are not walking on the road with the cars. Well done folks.

APPLAUSE echoed through the Yarra Ranges Council chambers last Tuesday night, when councillors elected to keep Family Day Care (FDC) services running in the shire. A motion on the table to end the provision of FDC was defeated in a six-to-three vote at the 24 June meeting, following over an hour of fierce debate on the matter.

A public submitter against the proposal to end the services told the councillors that they used the FDC service, and had only found out the proposal would be discussed four days before the meeting.

Due to the timeframe, the submitter said they had few notes on the matter, but treated the meeting like a David and Goliath face-off. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to stand up and see if I can make a difference,â&#x20AC;? she said. Following this speech, Cr Dunn repeatedly questioned Ms Wastie on the finer details of the scheme and said that not enough was done to assess the impact of ending the scheme. Councillor Maria McCarthy moved a motion afterwards to end the service, in line with the reportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations, which was seconded by Councillor Jason Callanan. Debate on the matter ran for over an hour, and those in favour of closing the service often found themselves at the receiving end of jeers, indignant shouts or scoffs from the public gallery. By the end of the debate, Cr Callanan announced that he had changed his mind on the matter, and would no longer support the motion

Election pressure THE months leading up to the state election are critical for council in terms of lobbying all candidates for vital services, policy change and project funding. With candidates wanting to attract voters with election promises, we have prepared a detailed submission outlining our advocacy priorities for the communities of the Yarra Ranges. We are calling on both sides of government to commit to either funding or policy change in the areas of: Improved public transport services and bus stop upgrades; Increased funding for libraries and higher education opportunities; Water security for agribusiness; Pensioner rate rebate assistance; Funding for community infrastructure and; More money for improved roads, footpaths and trails.

Pages from the past Healesville Guardian 30 June 1934 Girl Guides Association THE annual meeting of the Healesville Girl Guides Association was held in the I.O.R. Hall on Thursday. The following office-bearers were elected Mrs. McGlynn - President. Mrs. Alexander, Misses Westmoreland and Shaw - Vice Presidents, Miss E. Roy secretary and treasurer, Mesdames Fletcher Wells Jenkins Hall Bradshaw, Dolway McDonald, Misses J. Collier, Roberts, Pymn, Hancock and Mowle executive member. The story behind the Barak Memorial SHORTLY after The Guardian writer came to Healesville he visited the cemetery at Coranderrk and started a newspaper agitation strongly urging that Barak’s Grave be preserved. We took photos of the grave and placed them before the local A.N.A representatives who became keenly interested in the proposal. The result is well known. Mrs. Bon offered to donate the fine monument at Bonnie Doon made of Carrara marble. We must say in conclusion that the fruition of the project is not in keeping with the original idea of preserving the chieftain’s grave which together with the whole of the aboriginal cemetery at Coranderrk is in a neglected state due to the passing of time. Soon it seems, it will pass out altogether and to us it seems a little incongruous that a monument should be erected elsewhere to one of our colony’s most historical figures, while the grave itself is allowed to almost be no more.

Warburton Mail July 3 1964 Shire Hall THE announcement that Upper Yarra Shire Council is considering building a new shire hall at Yarra Junction was received with a certain amount of enthusiasm by most ratepayers, in fact there has been no opposition what-so-ever to the proposal. Most people evidently realise that the old landmark conspicuous at Yarra Junction does not do credit to the Shire and that the old building is totally inadequate to cater for the administration needs of the municipality. Councillors inspected a new Shire Hall at Sunbury during the week.

$10,000 to provide pets with shelter By ANEEKA SIMONIS AN Animal Aid client has left a lasting legacy which will help improve the care of animals treated at the Coldstream clinic. The shelter and vet clinic was humbled to receive a generous bequest of $10,000 by the late Susan McInnerney of Ringwood. Putting the money to good use, Animal Aid has created a new surgery and recovery ward, separating pets and welfare animals during their stay as well as purchasing a new anaesthetic machine, operating table and light used in surgery. Animal Aid’s veterinarian, Dr Elise Anderson said by separating the wards, the clinic was better equipped to help patients. “Having an extra surgery means that we can roster staff to a dedicated area, welfare or private. This will increase our capacity and enhance our staff’s ability to focus solely on their rostered area,” Dr Anderson said.. Operating with the new ward for over a month now, the clinic has been able to employ a new vet which has meant they can carry out more surgeries, more often. “Shorter turnaround times have advantages and ultimately it’s the animals that benefit. The less time they spend with us, the less stress they experience, the less they cost to care for and the more animals we can assist,”

The Mail Newspaper Group and sister company Star News Group scooped the awards on Friday night. Picture: DONNA OATES

Mail were winners all round Bella the dog is on her way to a quick recovery in the hands of veterinarian Dr Adele Scannell in the clinic’s new recovery room. 122739 Picture: ANEEKA SIMONIS Dr Elise Anderson said. Susan’s donation didn’t stand alone in the facility update. Fellow clients, David and Kathy Mackintosh heard of her kind works and made a generous contribution themselves, bringing the total to almost $12,000. Animal Aid’s Debra Boland said donations had a profound effect on animal care at the clinic. “Donations help us do our job even better. It helps streamline our processes and run more efficiently so every dollar donated can go further, helping more animals.” Animal Aid treats over 5000 pets and welfare animals up for adoption each year.

THE Mail Newspaper Group’s strong connections to its readers were celebrated at the Community Newspaper Awards on Friday night. The Mail walked away with three awards, after being named a finalist in nine categories. The first award of the night was scooped by the Mail, named winner of the Best Digital Publishing category. Judges described the Mail Facebook page as a one-stop shop for all the happenings in the Yarra Valley and Dandenongs. Mail reporter Kath Gannaway was also awarded two national awards in the category for Best Feature Story. Her stories, one on the road toll and another about a dodgy car salesman were celebrated on the night despite Kath being home fighting a cold. Judges said either of Kath’s stories could have won first place, but when considered together it seemed fair to award them joint winners. Mail Editor Melissa Meehan said while awards weren’t everything, it was nice for others to recognise the hard work of her team.

“Kath Gannaway has been a major part of our team for a number of years, and to see her hard work rewarded is wonderful,” she said. “We have a small team, but we work hard to bring our community quality journalism highlighting important issues that affect our readers.” Sister papers also did well at the awards including the Pakenham Gazette, named the Best Newspaper (circulation under 30,000). Awarded on Friday night, judges applauded the Gazette’s use of quality photography and thoughtful journalism as the reasons why the paper was so successful. Beating other community newspapers in Tasmania, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia, the Gazette’s well-researched features were described as well-presented. Real estate, motoring and classified sections enhanced the overall package. Editor Garry Howe’s piece on the media’s intrusion at funerals was also awarded first place in the Best Editorial category. Judges said his editorial was both poignant and courageous and deserving

of the winner’s title. The Dandenong Journal was also awarded Best Newspaper (circulation over 50,000) with judges commending the paper on its very strong journalism ethic and great commitment to the community. Judges said that while there was a significant level of commercial support, management had ensured there was still room for the very best journalism and photography that the newsroom could offer. The Journal’s strong advertising sections, like Journal Property, were also celebrated. Cranbourne News’ Bridget Cook was also awarded Best News Story for her front page article on the grubby swingers party planned for a children’s play centre. Judges said Bridget’s story demonstrated the relevance of powerful, incisive reporting. Sister paper Geelong Independent was also awarded Best Special Publication for their GC magazine; it was also awarded the National Award. Judges described the magazines as crisp and vibrant as a sunny winter’s day.

Stay steady and sensible in the snow AT LAST... snow! Driving on snow for the first time, or even for those with experience, can be a tricky and slippery experience. By their very nature, roads in the snow fields of Victoria are windy and mountainous, and with Victoria’s snow season down to just a few months, for most people experience is limited.

Being prepared with the right equipment and be prepared to take time are two tips that will go a long way to safe snow driving. Here are some more: Keep below 40 km/h with chains. Maintain a slow, steady, even driving speed and aim to be as smooth as possible when accelerating and braking.

Avoid close calls and tragedies on phone THE laws around mobile phone use, talking and texting, are clear – it’s illegal. From November last year the stakes were raised for both probationary drivers, who are over-represented in serious road crashes according to VicRoads, and for more experienced drivers. It became illegal for P2 drivers as well as P1 and learner drivers to use a mobile phone, either hand-held or hands-free, while driving. That included when the car is stationary, but not parked. Mobile phones and other mobile devices, such as DVD players or tablet computers, are major sources of distraction for this age group – especially while drivers are still building experience and developing skills. Probationary drivers who reach five demerit points are in danger of having their licences suspended. The changes were not restricted to probationary drivers, however. All drivers face tougher penalties for illegal use of a mobile phone or interacting with other units that have visual displays while driving that are not driving aids. The penalties are four demerit points and a $433 fine. The problem is distraction, and using a mobile phone while driving can be distracting. Research shows that using a handheld or hands-free mobile phone while driving that may involve manual or visual distraction increases the chances of being involved in a crash or near crash. Using a hand-held mobile while driving includes not only talking and texting but playing games, taking photos or videos or using any other function on the phone.

1136391-CB28-14

Observe advisory signs. 122980

While using a mobile is second nature to a whole generation of young drivers, and some older drivers, research shows that it can lead to riskier decision making, slower reactions, slower and less controlled breaking, wandering out across lanes and generally not being alert to surroundings. It’s different to talking to a passenger. If a dangerous situation develops, the passenger can stop talking and let the driver concentrate on driving. On a mobile phone, the person on the other end of the line isn’t aware of the danger and will keep talking, creating a further distraction when

the driver needs full concentration. Text messaging while driving results in physical, visual and cognitive distraction. Research shows that retrieving and sending text messages increases the amount of time a driver spends not looking at the road. The driver’s eyes may be taken off the road for up to four times longer when text messaging compared to a driver who is not text messaging leading to incorrect lane changes, wandering, missing road signs and hazards such as pedestrians, cyclists and other vehicles.

Safe driving tips and the mobile phone Road Mode, an android app that prevents the driver from being distracted · Use by the phone. voicemail. · Use over safely and park to make or receive a call. · Pull breaks in your trip for phone calls. · Plan family and friends not to call when you know you will be driving. · Tell callers you are driving and may have to end the call. · Tell make calls in heavy traffic, poor road conditions or bad weather. · Don’t look up phone numbers. · Never Never read or send text messages. ·A mobile phone can be important in an emergency. If drivers need to use their mobile phone to call for help they should stop and park safely where they will not endanger other road users.

Unique orchestra gig By ANEEKA SIMONIS AND JESSE GRAHAM THE Yarra Ranges Regional Museum will be abuzz over the school holidays, hosting a group of nationally acclaimed members from the Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO). The tour is not just a first for the Yarra Ranges, but a world-first as the talented musicians perform in a new, unique capacity ... virtually. Appearing with life-like definition, 13 of the ACO’s musicians will perform as 3D projections as part of the free ACO-VIRTUAL exhibition. To commemorate the exhibition, which opened on Saturday 28 June, students from Little Yarra Steiner School visited in an exclusive event, and performed alongside the worldclass musicians. April Croydon, Rebecca de Boer and Tom Kear all said they loved the new exhibition, and said they thought it would be inspiring to other young musicians. “This is amazing - I’ve never seen anything like this,” Ms Croydon said. “It’s awesome,” Mr Kear said. The state-of-the-art video technology allows museum goers to get up and personal with the performers, see their lightning quick hand movements and feel the rush of music in

Museum director Maggi Solly is thrilled to play part in the unique, month-long exhibition. “It really is a one off opportunity. It’s something you could not get unless you were literally standing in the middle of the Australian Chamber Orchestra as they were playing,” she said. But the experience promises more than just an opportunity to watch these world-class performers. Visitors are invited to become a conductor for the day, with a touch-

The museum is offering half hour solo sessions with the orchestra for a once in a lifetime opportunity to groove alongside the performers. School groups are also invited to join in the fun with two programs being held at the museum on Tuesday 8 July for children as young as five to choreograph and perform their own dance performance alongside the orchestra.

Yarra Ranges Mayor Fiona McAllister said the installation is a welcome addition to the museum. “We are really thrilled to be able to bring this experience to Yarra Ranges and know it will appeal to almost everyone in our community. I personally am really looking forward to getting to see and participate in this amazing new installation,” she said.

Marysville & District Lions Club proudly presents

PATHWAYS

GRACE Of Monaco is about living with your choices. The film is a historical drama about the life of Grace Kelly, golden age Hollywood star and princess of Monaco. When Alfred Hitchcock (Roger Ashton-Griffiths) offers her a role in his latest film, Kelly (played by Nicole Kidman) grapples with her identity and duty to the people of Monaco as the country faces French invasion. Monaco’s royal family expressed disapproval at the film’s moderately fictionalised take on Grace Kelly’s life. Grace Of Monaco does present an idealised portrayal of Kelly, but it’s still a reverent depiction of a person who has achieved a certain legendary status, and Nicole Kidman plays this role magnificently. Kidman superbly conveys Kelly’s incredible elegance and nobility but also her character’s uncertainty and feelings of entrapment in her marriage to Prince Rainier III (Tim Roth). The film has wonderful cinematography, elegant music and solid performances. The pacing is a little slow and erratic, but the engaging emotional journey is more important, and the plot eventually comes together to show Kelly adapting to her situation. It is thoroughly satisfying to see Kelly use her acting skills (with Kidman impressively playing an actress who, in turn, acts in politics) to help in Monaco’s preservation. Nicole Kidman’s entrancing performance is by far the film’s biggest draw, but Grace Of Monaco is also a beautiful and emotionally deep experience. - Seth Hynes

FINDING activities to keep the kids entertained over the school holidays is always a challenge. But this winter, all tracks are leading to Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit with activities for all age groups and abilities - it really is entertainment at one’s own pace. Visitors are able to move into the fast lane with go karting on the 760 metre scale replica Grand Prix Circuit and even try and beat the fastest times of the day, or just compete against their personal best. Groups are welcome and tandem karts are available for the youngsters. Adrenalin junkies can take part in three heart-pumping hot laps in a race prepared vehicle driven by a resident race car driver that will include lift off and road hugging turns that defy gravity. Take a stroll through the History of Motorsport display and admire authentic sleek machines of yesteryear, including vintage, classic and contemporary cars as well as bikes. Then head over to Australia’s largest and fastest Grand Prix Slot Car Track. Guided Circuit tours provide access to exclusive and restricted areas such as the control tower, media centre, pit lane, pit roof and, of course, that ‘hero’ photo opportunity on the winner’s podium.

It’s a day the whole family will enjoy at the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit. 122882 Wander into the rich past the Circuit has to offer. Tranquil water gardens, inspired by the former race car driver and previous owner of the Circuit, Len Lukey, lead visitors through to the viewing mound capturing some of the most unique and invigorating panoramic views of the Circuit and Bass Straight. After all the excitement, the Champion’s Bar and Cafe has all the answers with its fresh menu with plenty of choices. The coffee served is second to none and the cafe prides itself on delicious and decadent home-made cakes, slices, muffins, pastries, sausage rolls and

pies. However many can’t go past the famous Champions Hamburger which is made from the very best beef and served with home-made relish and thick cut chips. The gift shop at the visitor centre has a wide selection of apparel, merchandise and souvenirs to choose from so visitors can take a special memento home. For more information on the school holiday activities at the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, call 5952 9400 or visit www.phillipislandcircuit.com. au.

Winter pamper for skin MANY think that extra attention needs to be paid in summer to keep their skin fresh and healthy. However, over the winter months, the dry, bitter air can also dehydrate the skin. The Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges has a selection of award winning day spas to help skin stay terriffic over the cooler months. Lis Day from Argyles Day Spa said it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be expensive to look after skin over winter, but it was important to keep it hydrated

can make the skin work a lot harder, leading to redness, capillary damage and premature ageing such as fine lines.â&#x20AC;? Ms Day said an extra full body exfoliation once a week as part of a home beauty regime would keep skin cells moving and would help to get rid of the dry skin and allow the skin underneath to be nourished more effectively. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A key to protecting the skin in winter is a good serum with vitamins and anti-oxidants,â&#x20AC;? she said.

otherwise skin would feel the effects of dryness from low humidity. Ms Day said winter dryness affected most skin types and although not everyone might notice a significant change to their skin, most people would feel a difference between winter and summer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the end of winter, a lot of damage can be seen,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The effects from heating will zap lipids from the skin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The lack of moisture will not only feel dry on the skin surface, but

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hydration and good moisturisers as well as sun block protect against the effects of winter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A masque once a week will do wonders and can help with the overall health of skin replenishing and invigorating.â&#x20AC;? Ms Day said it was recommended to have a series of treatments over winter, such as high performance facial treatments which were customised to suit each skin type and combat the effects of winter.

Indulge in some tender loving care this winter. 120539

Close call for an epic finish YVMDFNL WET and windy conditions saw Round 11 have some interesting results and major ladder changes. Division 1 Seniors Olinda Ferny Creek 9.6 (60) d Healesville 7.14 (56) OLINDA is breathing a sigh of relief as it comes from 20 points down at three quarter time to get over the top of Healesville by just four points in an epic finish. The first half was tight with neither side able to get any advantage and at half time Healesville’s lead was just one point. The third term was really all Healesville but players would be kicking themselves as they booted 2.7 for the quarter while holding Olinda scoreless but that inaccuracy was to haunt them come final siren. The last quarter Olinda really hit its stride in tough conditions it took its chances and booted 5.2 last quarter goals which saw it sneak its nose in front. Healesville had its chances with a kick after the siren but only managed a point. Olinda used one of its get out of jail free cards and got away with the four points. Olinda Ferny Creek best players: J. Rankin (3), N. Syme (1), M. Rosier. Healesville best players: N. Mende, J. Nugent (1), A. Davies (1). Warburton Millgrove 10.17 (77) d Upwey Tecoma 3.5 (23) THE margin of this game was probably expected but the eventual winner certainly wasn’t. Upwey has been in great form and arguably premiership favourites while Warby has been struggling but it took all before it and actually gave Upwey a touch up. Warby had all the ball in the first quarter and jumped to a 28 point lead at the first change which should have been more but for inaccuracy while Upwey could only manage one behind. The next two quarters wasn’t exceptional but Warby was able to answer any challenge that Upwey tried to muster booting three goals to two and at the last change Warby knew it was in for a big upset win as it held a 35 point lead. Warby has been very inaccurate in previous games and it has cost it but in this game it didn’t matter because it finished the game with a four goal to one last quarter to finish with an inaccurate score line of 10.17 (77) which was more than enough to get its best win of the season by 54 points over a very good side which should serve it well for the remainder of the season. Warburton Millgrove best players: L. Barnard, B. Irving, M. Walker (1). Upwey Tecoma best players: B. Hinton, S. Parkinson, S. Gooley. Woori Yallock 12.14 (86) d Wandin 8.11 (59) WOORI Yallock has moved to the top of the ladder after eventually getting over the top of Wandin in what was a gripping encounter for three quarters. Wandin held the early advantage as it jumped Woori to grab a 16-point lead at quarter time albeit aided by a very strong wind. Woori used the wind to its advantage in the second and grinded its way back into the contest and at half time scores were 7.6 (48) apiece.

Action at the Wandin v Woori Yallock game over the weekend. 123041 The third quarter saw Woori’s defence work overtime as it held Wandin and at the last change Wandin was clinging to a one point lead. The last quarter was where Woori turned it on and all of a sudden it had avenues to goal opening up and it started to pepper the goals. Woori may have been a bit astray but it booted 5.6 to 1.2 to finish the game in style and come away with a win that was worthy of putting them at the top of the ladder. Woori Yallock best players: M. Batten, D. Mock (1), M. Baxter (4). Wandin best players: R. Ross (1), M. Fowkes (2), J. Myers. Division 2 Seniors Yarra Junction 25.20 (170) d Yea 7.9 (51) YEA was competitive in the first quarter of this match but that was about it as Yarra Junction dominated after quarter time. It booted six goals to one in the second quarter and the margin had blown out to 51 points. The third term was even enough as Yea did try to battle it out but Junction still held the edge stretching its lead marginally to 55 points at the last break. The last quarter was a goal feast for Junction as it saved its best for last ramming home 10 goals. Junction’s Chenhall was having a great day finishing the game with eight majors of his own. Yea could only scramble the one goal in the last as it had to walk off the ground to a massive 119 point defeat come final siren. Yarra Junction best players: D. Williams (2), W. Robertson (2), J. Chenhall (8). Yea best players: J. Crowe, N. Simpson, M. Berry (2). Under 18s Healesville 18.10 (118) d Wandin 1.2 (8) HEALESVILLE now remain the only undefeated team in the comp after Emerald suffered its first loss of the year allowing the Bloods to go one game clear on top. Healesville had an easy win over a Wandin side that just had no answers for a team that is so well tuned and focused that it looked unstoppable. Healesville’s lead at half time was 10 goals and it hadn’t let Wandin score. The second half was more of the same but at least Wandin get on the board in the third with a goal but it was a dominant Healesville throughout

that ended up winning by 110 points and looking more and more the superior team in this competition. Healesville best players: S. Fisher, M. Jeffrey, J. Hellary (2). Wandin best players: A. Napoleone, T. LeechHines, L. Voges. Warburton Millgrove 16.21 (117) d Powelltown 2.2 (14) A BIG win by Warby which, in actual fact, could have been larger but some wayward kicking got in the way. Warby really did have this game all its own way as it dominated play and possession which gave them plenty of scoring opportunities. By half time it held a 56-point lead while holding Powelly to just one behind. Warby continued its dominance in the third adding another six goals and holding Powelly scoreless - its lead an even 100 points at the last change. Credit must go to Powelly in the last as it really did battle hard and it was two goals apiece for the quarter but at the end of the day it was still a good solid four quarter performance from Warby which was just a class above. Warburton Millgrove best players: W. MonAphai (2), L. Spaulding (1), J. Lee (2). Powelltown best players: C. Sutherland, T. Nightingale, D. Thomas (1).

Jets bogged in an onslaught of mud AGAINST incredible odds on Sunday, Yarra Glen Under 16s never gave up. Facing an onslaught from Mount Evelyn, and with a depleted team, the score, with a 166 point win to the opposition, didn’t reflect the Jets’ determination. The game was a victory for sportsmanship with the under-manned Yarra Glen side recruiting four opposition players to make up the numbers and both sides giving their all in a game where the ball landed with a thud and never recovered, players pushed their way through ankle deep mud and mini lakes and in, at times, unrelenting rain. Yarra Glen stands at ninth on the ladder ahead of Woori Yallock, Emerald and Wesburn.

THE Yarra Valley was represented in the Netball Victoria Association Championships on Sunday 29 June at the State Netball and Hockey Centre.

McGrath, R. Saric-Skewes, L. Schatz, D. Senior. Awards: R. Maassen, C. Keenan, D. Senior, J. Brooks, T. Waters. IN VERY wet and very muddy conditions the Healesville boys got an early jump on Emerald. Healesville continued the good form into the second quarter to lead by six goals at half time. In the third quarter Emerald came out hard and fast and won the quarter marginally. In the final term in the heavy muddy conditions, stung by Emerald’s strong third quarter, Healesville accelerated its attempts to come out convincing winners at the final siren.

Under 14 (No report submitted) Healesville 15.12 (102) d Seville 1.1 (7) Goals: M. Minney (5), K. Brown, J. George, J. Rosser, M. Donegan (2), B. Christie, R. Andueza.

Under 13 Healesville 1.5 (11) d Emerald 4.11 (35) Goals: M. Gamble. Awards: D. Holinger, M. Jones, Z. Fawdry, B. Cummins. THE boys played a good defensive game and gave it their all. They put a massive effort into getting the footy, it may not have shown on the scoreboard, but as a team they played great.

Under 12 Seville 4.4 (28) d Healesville 3.4 (22) Goals: S. Gebert (2), H. O’Brien (1). Awards: W. deZylva, L. Blair, S. North. IT WAS a tough game in very tough conditions with both teams doing well. Healesville fought for the ball and played with courage and determination.

IN EXTREMELY wet and slippery conditions the boys put in a great effort but fell short on the scoreboard. They struggled to contain Upwey Tecoma’s best players but contested the game out to the end. Signs of improvement signal a win is not far away.

UPWEY was always favoured to win this game but Warby certainly didn’t let it have it all its own way. Warby was very competitive in the first half but it just couldn’t quite match Upwey’s scoring power and ball movement which gave it a seven goal lead at the half. The second half saw Upwey control the tempo of the game and even though it never really got into its top form it never looked in any danger of dropping the game as it ran out eventual 21 goal winners in a match it were made to work hard for its victory. Upwey Tecoma best players: T. Elshaar, J. Lingard (19), N. Montanari. Warburton Millgrove best players: C. Barnard, K. Davidson, A. Bryan.

Wandin 87 d Woori Yallock 14 THE less said about this game from Woori’s point of view the better but that would be doing an injustice to Wandin which was absolutely superb from start to finish. It showed no mercy from the outset as it shot 24 first quarter goals to three and never looked back from there. Wandin dominated the rest of the game with speed and agility all over the court and it finished the day with a 25 to four goal last quarter to win by its biggest margin of the season in what was one of the most complete four quarter performances one could witness. Wandin best players: S. Coppinger, M. Martinov (53), E. Priestley. Woori Yallock best players: S. Southwick, C. Stafford, E. Stafford (7).

Healesville 46 d Olinda Ferny Creek 35 THIS was a tight contest that Healesville was just able to hold the edge over Olinda throughout. The first half was a tough battle with scores tied at nine all at the first break and then Healesville managing to sneak to a two goal lead at half time. The second half was still a real battle but Healesville was able to capitalise when it really mattered. It held a five goal lead at the last break and finished the day off pretty well with a 14 goal to eight last quarter to give it a very good hard fought win.

Action-packed championships

Christie sweeps the field

By JAMES LAVEN

By LESLEY RUNDLE

IT WAS another brilliant, action-packed weekend as the senior athletes from Yarra Ranges headed off to Bundoora Park for XCR Round Four. The day featured the Victorian State Cross Country Championships and Victorian All Schools Championships as well as being the selection event for the Australian Championships in August. Yarra Ranges athletes looked very professional as the long- awaited arrival of club tracksuits was finally delivered. The junior athletes, competing for their schools ran a fast course of three, four or six kilometres with many excellent performances to show. The first race of the day was the un-

der 14 Women running three kilometres. Lily Peacock (Lilydale High School) ran an excellent race to place fourth in a time of 11.13, followed by Brooke Mullins (Mansfield Primary School) placing 16th in 11.45. The under 14 men, also ran a threekilometre race. Harrison Van Duuren (St Patricks Primary School) ran 11.08, placing him 22nd, followed by Ryan Thrall (Montrose Primary School) running a 12.32, Daniel Gasson (Monbulk College) placed 98th. The 15-women, four-kilometre race featured another Yarra Ranges Little Athlete running for Collingwood, Emily Noonan (Tintern Grammar).

In the 15-men, four-kilometre race, James Laven (Lilydale High School) placed sixth in a time of 14.10. Under 17 women’s four-kilometre race saw Olivia Twining (Alexandra Secondary College) run 16.42, placing her 15th. Under 17 men’s race over six kilometres had Lachlan Scully (Oxley College) run 21.52 to place him 24th. The Under 18 men’s six-kilometre race saw former Little Athlete Ryan Patterson (Lilydale H.S) run a blistering 19.11 to place him first. Cross Country returns next week for Yarra Ranges Athletics round 11 at Lillydale Lake from 8.45am. For more information, visit yarrarangesathletics. org.au.

played in a 4BBB stableford competition and the winning pair was Peter Jefferey and Mark Banberry with 44 points. Next Saturday both the men and ladies will play for the monthly medal and the ladies will also play the fourth round of the Barton Shield. On Sunday 6 July all members of the community are invited to visit the newly renovated clubhouse to view the facilities. From 11am the doors will be open and visitors will be able to buy a drink at the bar and eat the light finger food which will be provided by the club.

CONSIDERING the amount of rain that fell on Marysville during the week, the golf course was in reasonable condition and all weekly competitions were held. The Thursday nine-holers played a stroke round on the front nine holes and greenkeeper Rob Christie swept the field with 34 nett and 11 putts. The runner-up was Geoff Ferguson with 37 nett but no player was able to reach the fourth green from the tee. On Saturday in wet and cold conditions a few brave souls
