PATIENCE AND PROPAGATION By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

AGRICULTURE AND PRIMARY INDUSTRIES

JENNY and Dan Patience make the perfect team. In January 2010 the husband and wife pair launched JD Propagation, a wholesale plug nursery based in Pearcedale. Now in 2014 the business has won a Casey Cardinia Business Award in the Agriculture and Primary Industries category. Jenny said JD Propagation had blossomed into a burgeoning business, having started from small beginnings four years earlier. “Dan had been in the horticulture industry since he left school, so he had knowledge of plants, but I came from business sales, and I focus more on our systems and procedures,” Jenny said. “We’re both good in different areas, we complement each other and that’s what works.” Beginning with only two staff members – Dan and Jen – JD Propagation now has more than 20 employees. “I think it comes down to the fact we have a very strong culture, we love what we do and I think that rubs off on the rest of the team,” Jenny said. “We make them very involved in what we do. We have team-building activities, and we give back to people, we want to make sure they’re involved in what we’re doing. “We need a good team behind us. Our team is like our family.” JD Propagation currently specialises

don’t quite fit the mould. “We want passionate and like-minded people, at the end of the day we want to be here. Our team is like that as well.” Jenny said the future was bright, with plans to expand to include even more greenhouses. “We’ve got five acres up the back to build on, that’s the next thing,” she said.

“We deal with a range of plants, and we have strong relationships with breeders from overseas. “We’re not just about cutting and propagating, we’re building a business we can grow.” For more information, visit www. jdpropagation.com.au.

Mr Buyers said employees also had team building days and were often engaged with council activities, such as planting trees. While their work within the sustainability sector is substantial, Highview also prides itself on staying abreast of all the latest financial and taxation implications that may affect their clients. This dedication to bettering the business has allowed it to also take out the category of Business and Professional Services. All of the firm’s accountants have a strong knowledge of many industries that they deal with.

They keep on top of matters such as trading conditions, trends, marketplace changes, legislative requirements and opportunities that present themselves in those industries. Ms Crowther added that “growth is a big achievement for us” and the opening of the Mornington office in April this year was a huge step forward for the firm. She said the opportunity to be involved in the business awards was exciting. “We felt that we had a strong submission in terms of growth, innovation, different practices and procedures,” she said. “We offer a complete financial solution in every sense of the word.”

AN outstanding accounting firm will steal the spotlight at the Casey-Cardinia Business Awards after it’s crowned winner in three categories. Highview Accounting Services opened in 1990 and has quickly become one of the largest accounting firms in the City of Casey. With their head office in Cranbourne, the firm specialises in providing highly personalised accounting, taxation, finance, wealth, financial planning and investment services. Marketing Manager Brodie Crowther said the firm’s two original business partners, Silvio Marinelli and Darren Crowther, had “an idea of growth and plan in place to take the firm to another level.” The business now boasts three locations, with an office in Mornington and Prahran. “We wanted clients to be able to come here and take things to another level and provide a strategy for any situation,” Ms Crowther said. Highview is unique in its approach to the environment, and this style has earned the business the top spot in the Environment and Sustainability Category. One of Highview’s proudest achievements in the past five years was when it achieved a carbon neutral status with the market’s leading carbon consulting firm, the Carbon Reduction Institute. This involved the measurement, reduction and offsetting of the firm’s carbon footprint. One of the company’s partners, Simon Buyers said the company was now “completely carbon neutral” and was the second in Australia to be certified, and the first in Victoria. Mr Buyer raised the idea about reducing the business’s carbon footprint after a two-yearlong stay in Europe. “They were very far ahead in terms of companies voluntarily taking action,” he said. “I came back and raised the idea with partners and staff were keen to take action.” Being an accounting firm, staff work hard to reduce the amount of paper used and have gradually recognised ways to cut down and eventually reach the goal of being a paperless office. Highview no longer print office copies and use electronic working papers, staff also email clients as much as they can instead of posting. On a daily basis, Highview encourages the use of recycling with clearly labelled bins and storage equipment, and ensures the rubbish

TRADES AND CONSTRUCTION Sponsor

Winner SJD Homes Finalists Cranbourne Body Works ProPlumb Ultra Signs

NO-ONE knows how far SJD Homes has come more than Simon Dunstan. The owner of the building company remembers having to work out of a display home garage in Pakenham, when he started up SJD Homes roughly seven years ago. “It was fairly humble beginnings when we started,” Mr Dunstan said. “We had one display home and basically we had a salesman out the front and they were sitting in the garage and the last few metres of the garage we had for ourselves, our whole office was run out of the garage of a display home. “In a short space of time it moved along.” From those “humble beginnings” SJD homes has now expanded to specialise in investment properties, in addition to its construction of new homes and new house and land packages. The company has also won a 2014 Casey Cardinia Business Award in the Trades and Construction category. After working seven-day weeks for other employers, prior to starting up SJD Homes, Mr Dunstan realised he might have to embark on a new journey if he ever wanted to see more of his family.

Sponsor Patrick Reyes from Selandra Rise (left) with Gregory Tyler, Simon Dunstan and Rod Fitzsimmons from SJD Homes.

“I was working seven days a week, and I have twin girls and they got to an age when they went to kinder and things like that, and I was working the weekend,” Mr Dunstan said. “I knew that if I didn’t draw a line in the sand my kids would call me Uncle Simon instead of Dad.

“It cost me a lot of money to start doing it for myself, but it gave me the weekends off.” And now business is booming. The company works on in excess of 200 homes a year, while roughly 75 per cent of SJD Homes’ turnover is spent with local tradespeople.

Mr Dunstan said this was the reason why the Casey Cardinia Business Award nomination meant a lot to the team at SJD Homes. This is the company’s second nomination. “We’re very proud of what we do,” Mr Dunstan said.

“Over a third of our business is from referrals and it tells me that we are doing something right for our business to be growing and so many of our customers referring family and friends to us.” For more information, visit www.sjdhomes.com.au.

THEY'VE GOT A STRONG OUTLOOK By BRIDGET SCOTT

SOCIAL ENTERPRISE Sponsor

Winner Outlook Finalists Christians Helping In Primary Schools (CHIPS) Waverley Industries

A LEADER in its field, Outlook has grown from a rural disability service to a multifaceted social enterprise. The disability service originally employed around nine people in the 1970s, and has now expanded to nearly 180 staff and just under a $12 million turnover in 2012. In early 2013, Outlook embarked on its journey to establish an electronic waste or e-waste enterprise as part of Outlook Environmental after it recognised that electronic waste was a concern. Since then, Outlook has operated an e-waste enterprise at Hampton Park Transfer Station with contract partner SITA Australia in the City of Casey to recycle or downcycle electronic waste into its raw material. This site has a little more than 50 employees, 26 of whom have a disability but are ably assisted by supportive employees if need be.

The Outlook team celebrates its Social Enterprise success (from left) James Wynne, Lisa O’Sullivan, Ann McCormick, Kimberley Flanagan, CEO Tony Fitzgerald, sponsor Deepa Golani from Matchworks, Ross Cheesewright and Peter Link. Not only does the site deliver benefits for the environment, it provides award-based employment, training and ongoing skill development.

Mercedes-Benz Berwick’s Impressive Line-up. Catch the carnival fever.

Outlook's work within the disability sector and leadership within its industry has this year enabled it to be crowned as the winner of the Social Enterprise

Category in the Casey-Cardinia Business Awards. Ross Cheesewright, Business Manager for Outlook Environmental said the

organisation applied last year, and it was fantastic to be recognised this year. “I think it’s great to be recognised for what we are doing,” he said. “We’ve been here for a long time.” “We touch a lot of people’s lives in many ways.” Outlook's social enterprise model is comprised of key attributes that distinguishes its approach from any other service of its kind. Outlook has achieved a triple bottom line, sustainability of financial measures, social and environmental factors, and re-invests its profits into the community. Mr Cheesewright said the opportunities and benefits of Outlook's work are twofold. He said while helping the environment, team members also developed on a personal level. “It builds confidence and skills,” he said. “They’re building a team and working alongside each other.”

KINDERS ARE BETTER TOGETHER BY CAM LUCADOU-WELLS

HEALTH EDUCATION AND WELL BEING Sponsor

Winner Kinders Together Finalists Soothe Mobile Massage Yoga Plus

GARFIELD-based Kinders Together Association Inc has unburdened volunteer parents of the heavy grind of kindergarten administration. KTAI operations co-ordinator Kerryn Bennett says the not-for-profit association brought in a new model for its 17 member kindergartens. Its central office takes care of onerous responsibilities that have traditionally weighed on kindergarten parent volunteers – such as hiring fill-in staff, financial services, professional development and licensing. It also funds the kindergartens out of its ‘global budget’ – so parents need not fund-raise to provide for the centres. Ms Bennett says these tasks were “taking a toll” on the kindergartens’ communities. Many of the kindergartens had been financially struggling. “Parents just think it’s a godsend,” Ms Bennett says. “They’re otherwise left running a small business. It’s a huge undertaking. “We still have parent groups at our locations. They just have to worry about the fun things.” KTAI employs about 100 staff across its kindergartens – including 14 at its central office. Established in 2006, the association set out to provide eligible children access to an affordable, culturally diverse and inclusive kindergarten program.

Celebrating their win with the sponsor are the Kinders Together crew (back from left) Kim Browne, Tracey Martin, Stacey Polkinghorne, Sarah Auld, Shara McAuley, (front) Angela Ager, Kerryn Bennett, Keli Fox, Sarah Stickland, Di Price and Lisa Norman, CEO of St John of God Berwick Hospital, which sponsored the award. It has grown from its initial group of six kindergartens to 17 – with two organisations in Victoria replicating the clustermanagement model.

Ms Bennett says its high-quality reputation helped it forge a close relationship with Cardinia Shire council, Staff member Kym Rinehart conducts art time at one of Kinders Together's managing the council’s ever-growing kindergartens. numbers of kindergartens.

HITTING A HOME RUN BY LACHLAN MOORHEAD MICHELLE Jankovic needed a helping hand but didn’t know where to find it. Ms Jankovic, whose 12-year-old son Bailey has mild cerebral palsy, found it difficult to find extra support for her son once he entered primary school. To fill the gap she saw widening beneath her very feet, Michelle started up Helping Hand – a disability services workshop aiming to better inform primary school families in Casey and Cardinia of the help available to them. It is Ms Jankovic’s dedication that has led to Helping Hand taking out the home-based business category at the Casey Cardinia Awards. “It was hard finding support, endless phone calls, trying to chase support when I’m trying to find time to digest Bailey’s diagnosis, and what that means and what he requires,” Ms Jankovic said. “I was always involved in check-ups and daily therapy, spending many hours

in the waiting room at the Royal Children’s. “When my son was a toddler, once he began school and my youngest started school, that gave me time to collate all the resources I had found, all the connections I’d made, and turn it into an online accessible website, and from that it grew into workshops.” Ms Jankovic started up the online directory roughly three years ago, and the business has developed rapidly from there. She said nothing felt more rewarding than when she saw the looks of appreciation on the faces of the parents she spoke to. “You have no idea, when I see their face and the light bulb goes off that there’s new support, that’s when I get the joy,” Ms Jankovic said. “I understand exactly where that person opposite me is coming from. They want the best for their child or family member.” Ms Jankovic is now also encouraging schools to invite

her to hold discussions with parents and carers to make them aware of what support is available and where to find it. She said the response from schools had been extremely encouraging. “All the principals I’ve spoken to 100 per cent agreed that there was a need for this type of workshop,” Ms Jankovic said. “I find that if families are fully aware and supported and connected to all services that they can apply for, that builds stronger families. “It can prevent families from falling apart under the stress of looking after children with additional needs, and the financial strain can be lifted through connecting families with funding concessions.” Ms Jankovic said it was a blessing to be nominated for a Casey Cardinia Business Award, her first ever nomination.

TECHNOLOGY plus qualitycontrol equates to Australian Precision Technologies’ leading edge, according to its co-director Ron Weinzierl. The Berwick-based company with 16 staff has become a world-standard manufacturer since it was founded by Ron’s brother and co-director Richard in 1992. Ron, who joined in 1998, says the firm sets high standards inspired by “Robert Bosch’s business model in qualityassurance control”. Using the latest technology, it makes simple to highly complex precision components, instruments and assemblies for an enviable list of local and international clients. “Flexibility is the key for our future business,” Ron said. He takes pride in APT providing components for diverse purposes such as defence soldier systems, Boeing planes and medical devices. It has also developed components for automotive assemblies, railway applications and security, telecommunications, mining and water control. APT has defied the doom and gloom surrounding Australian manufacturing. Ron attributes the company’s competitiveness to seeking “profitable opportunities” across the globe.

“

WE MAKE STUFF THAT PEOPLE CAN MAKE INTO PRODUCTS… “It’s all about how your business uses innovation and how you run efficiently in day-to-day business practices,” Ron told Star News Group after one of many award wins in July. “We have world leading machinery and manufacture components to customer designs that get utilised around the globe. “As a component manufacturer we’re known for precision engineering – we make stuff that people can make into products.” The company states it is in the top 10 per cent of precisionengineering manufacturers in Australia with “global standards of supply”. APT’s engineering solutions include an extensive array of computer-numeric-control turning and machining capabilities. The company was recently inducted in the 2014 Victorian Manufacturing Awards Industry Hall of Fame, also winning the small business category. It was a VMA finalist in 2013.

THE FIRST IN FIRST AID TRAINING BY CASEY NEILL PRIORITY Training Group hasn’t just grown its staff and courses in the past 12 months – it’s grown community safety. And the Narre Warren-based company was rewarded with the New Business award at the Casey Cardinia Business Awards. Co-founder Nikki Jurcutz said the registered training organisation aimed to save lives by providing corporate and paediatric first aid training. “We were stoked to be announced as a finalist,” she said. “It was the first time we stopped and reflected on what we achieved as a start-up during that first year. “Priority’s success streams from our

passion and dedication to our mission to train as many workplaces, members of the community and families in first aid.” The business has grown from two employees to five in the past year, and from three courses to six nationallyaccredited courses. It conducts all corporate training on-site and holds public courses at Quest Apartments in the Melbourne CBD, Frankston and Narre Warren. Priority’s founders created the second side of the business, Tiny Hearts Paediatric First Aid, within the first six months of becoming registered. Ms Jurcutz attended emergency situations involving young children as an ambulance officer and found parents didn’t have the vital knowledge and skills needed to act quickly to prevent

further injury, illness or death. “It was then that we identified a need for a community training program to be developed to educate new parents on what actions they need to take in an emergency,” she said. “The paediatric first aid courses are conducted in the privacy of their clients’ homes where we encourage babies and children to be present to ensure a relaxed environment.” The training includes information on infant CPR, SIDS, choking, asthma, anaphylaxis, burns, temperatures, seizures, poisoning, Panadol and Nurofen. “The CPR component is nationally recognised and at present Tiny Hearts is the only paediatric first aid training that is its own registered training

organisation,” Ms Jurcutz said. She said Tiny Hearts had received an overwhelming response from pro-active parents within the short amount of time it had been operating. Even celebrities Megan Gale and Shaun Hampson, Kate Ritchie and Stuart Webb, and Zoe and Hamish Blake have taken the course. The Blakes posted on social media that they “very much recommend the course to parents/parents to be”. “We’ve done quite a few celebrities now,” Ms Jurcutz said. “It’s really good for business.” Tiny Hearts will launch in Sydney in November with Cotton On Kids. “They contacted us and said they wanted to be a part of it, so that was pretty cool,” Ms Jurcutz said.

SPEAKING OUT FOR THE ANIMALS “When I grow up I want to look after all the animals,” he wrote. Look after them he has, with the park also an ideal education opportunity for anyone who wants to learn more about both well-known and endangered species. Moonlit Sanctuary promotes the conservation of Australian wildlife by creating an outstanding visitor experience which engages and delights visitors. The sanctuary offers “the full package”, with the chance for visitors to get up close and personal with animals, all within a natural setting. The sanctuary and its staff are also committed to sustainability, with solar cell electricity generation, worm farm black and grey water treatment, waterless urinals, greenhouse-neutral pellet fire heating and low energy lighting. Mr Johnson said it was “fantastic” and “an honour” to be recognised in the business awards.

A WELL-established conservation park which boasts thousands of visitors per year has been recognised as one of the region's best local businesses. Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park has again taken out the Hospitality and Tourism Category in the Casey-Cardinia Business Awards. Established by Michael Johnson in 1997 and opened in 2001, the sanctuary is dedicated to the conservation of Australian wildlife and provides an outstanding experience to visitors with around 280 animals. With about half of the park's visitors international tourists, it is a total destination for the area. Mr Johnson said the park was proud to host experiences by both daylight and moonlight. “We are open during the day with various animal encounters,” he said. “Then we also have evening tours.” The sanctuary also offers school

holiday programs, guided tours and assists with scientific research. Mr Johnson said a highlight for many was “really being able to get close with the animals.” As a child, the park's owner grew up helping various animals and helping with conservation work at Phillip Island

during his own holidays. He said he has “had a life-long interest in conservation. “I have always wanted to do something to help endangered species.” A quote from something he wrote as a child in first grade was recorded in a school yearbook.

Congratulations… to all the winners, ﬁnalists and nominations for the 2014 Casey Cardinia Business Awards. As your community newspaper… we are proud of you all! Keep on being successful in business… Berw

TAPPING INTO TIMELESS TALENT By CASEY NEILL

JUDGES’ RECOGNITION Sponsor

Winner MP Talent

MIA Perry launched a talent management agency for kids after witnessing untapped “incredible talent” in Melbourne’s outer suburbs. The Pakenham business is the only talent agency in Cardinia Shire, and received the Judges Recognition Award at the Casey Cardinia Business Awards. Its aim is to kick-start careers for talented children aged 5 to 17 in film, television, musical theatre, print and live performance. Ms Perry said there weren’t many resources available to kids outside of the city who aspired to have careers in “the biz”. She felt she understood the complexities of the entertainment industry from every angle, having been a professional dancer and an agent for a talent company. So she established MP Talent, which auditions hopeful children. “MP Talent upholds integrity by only taking on kids with talent or potential,” Ms Perry said. “Although if a child isn’t accepted, MP Talent sends an explanatory email and highlights positive points.” The company sources professional paid work,

negotiates rates and contractual particulars, acts as a go-between with production companies, educates clients and their parents about industry etiquette, refers them to training facilities in the area, and provides career advice and guidance. “We are truly passionate

about our kids. We care about them as individuals as well as performers,” Ms Perry said. “Our management style is personal and tailored to suit the goals and dreams of our kids.” Ms Perry appeared in film clips and TV commercials and programs, was a dancer for the

NBL Melbourne Tigers, and was a back-up dancer for singers. She branched into teaching dance and choreography, then under the guidance of Aran Michael-run talent agency Barry Michael Artists. She won the role of the head of the film and television

department working as a senior talent manager for Aran Michael Management, and provided talent for hundreds of film and television projects, worked with the major casting consultants in Australia, and worked with theatre productions.

■ Burnouts bad business...

Hoon haven By BEN CAMERON A PAKENHAM industrial estate remains a hot spot for local hoons after another night of burnouts and alleged destruction of property, according to a local business owner. The Bate Close trader, who wished to remain anonymous and first tipped off the Pakenham Gazette back in July about hoons in the Bald Hill Road estate, said more than 200 cars gathered on Tuesday night, doing burnouts and setting fire to tyres and bins. “They are a well-organised gang,” he said. “They should be in Formula One they are that well organised. They have a van with an air compressor and a trolley jack if one of them blows a tyre. “They’ve gotta be stopped. A daughter of a business owner said she could see smoke from the freeway. “It’s happening every couple of weeks. I tried to film one of them, but they drove at me at 100 km/h.” A T-intersection at Bate Close bore countless burnout marks and traces of burnt rubber on Wednesday morning. Across the road, a business employee said the issue was a storm in a teacup. “No damage is caused, there isn’t up to 200 cars like some people say,” he said.

“They do a few burnouts and then they leave. “It’s illegal, but they don’t even leave a McDonald’s wrapper. “We need a place for them, put that in your paper.” The business owner said police turned up too late to stop the hoons. “One divvy van turned up 40 minutes later. By then only four or five cars were left,” he said. “The police are too gutless to do anything about it. They say there are too many of them. “It’s drivers from P-platers to people 40 years of age.” It came on the same night police received a report of a person trapped in a vehicle in Bate Close around 10.30pm. The News understands a person at the scene threatened to shoot someone if they didn’t arrive soon. A CFA spokesperson said they’d received a report of a person trapped in a car in Bald Hill Road, yet it proved to be a false alarm. Pakenham police Acting Sergeant Frank Bailey said activity in the estate would be more closely monitored. “There were reports of a car accident, a person trapped, a car on fire, but there was nothing,” he said. “It could have been a business owner making the call about shooting somebody, they are pretty frustrated.”

VICTORIAN Governor Alex Chernov and his wife Elizabeth were given a tour of the region by Cardinia Shire mayor Graeme Moore last Thursday, taking in various places of interest including the award winning D’Angelo Estate Winery, Officer Specialist School and the new Pakenham racecourse. “The impression I got was that he felt right at home and comfortable in our surroundings, which was great to see. He was interested in our population growth, funding for development and infrastructure needs," Cr Moore said. “I gained the impression he was particularly impressed with Henry Family Children’s Centre. Taking the Governor to the Casey Cardinia Business Awards was also a highlight and a great way to finish the day.” 128385 For more on the Business Awards see page 49. Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Support for stability By LIA SPENCER WHEN Jamie Janes started hearing voices in his head, he tried to ignore them. But when he lost a job because he couldn’t concentrate on the task at hand, he decided to seek help. The Berwick man was one of about 130 people who attended a Mental Health Week (5-11 October) event, held by support group Ermha in Dandenong Park’s Greg Dixon Pavilion to raise awareness of mental illness and disability. Mr Janes, 43, said his lowest point in his life was when he packed up his belongings and moved from Sydney, where he had lived for 20 years and worked as a commercial photographer, to seek help in Melbourne and be closer to his family. “I was working on a few different projects here and overseas in 2010, when I started to experience severe symptoms,” he said. “I was having very disturbed sleeps. Then, the characters from my sleep started to vocalise to me during the day. It was very confronting and I told myself to keep working and ignore it, no-one needs to know. Nobody wants to put their hands up and say ‘I’m crazy or mentally unstable.’” It wasn’t until he lost a contract job that he decided to seek help. Mr Janes was first diagnosed with psychosis - which is a temporary syndrome. After it persisted, he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, a permanent condition. He tried three medications un-

til he found one that worked for him and said he was now feeling stabilised. He also has an outreach worker from Ehrma who offers him support. “The health services in Victoria have been excellent. It’s refreshing and rewarding to work with people and groups like Ehrma.” Mr Janes said he enjoyed getting out and socialising and that was why he took part in the event last week. He said he also hoped to be able to work again in the near future. “When you are a young adult, you find a job and a place to live, and have an income. Everyone wants to be stable like that,” he said. “But I have to rely on a benefit and I don’t have a stable income. One day I want to be back working and contribute.” Mr Janes encouraged other people who suffer from mental health issues to seek help. “I would tell other people (with mental health issues) to hold their head up high and remember who you are in all of it. Sometimes, you can feel robbed of your own identity,” he said. “You should definitely ask for help when you need it. Health Services in Victoria are A plus- they are among the world’s highest for excellence.” For more coverage of Mental Health Week in Casey, turn to page 4.

Safety takes a back seat By ANEEKA SIMONIS PATCHES of roadwork close to schools and early learning centres in Pakenham created safety hazards for kids trying to walk to and from school during their first week back. The question on parents’ and teachers’ lips: Why didn’t council organise the repairs over the school holidays? On the first day of term four, Pakenham Hills Primary School students had no choice but to walk along the road as parts of the Army Road footpath were undergoing repair. “Yesterday, I was picking up my eldest and a friend of hers aged five and six and had to walk on the road with my toddler in the pram shuffling the kids along the little gap on the nature

strip ... the on-coming traffic didn’t even slow down,” said Larissa, the mother of a Pakenham Hills Primary School student on Tuesday 7 October. Sharing similar concern was Brendan on the Pakenham Gazette’s Facebook page who thought the site was lacking safeguards. “Isn’t it great to see they did this the week school goes back instead of doing it during school holidays when foot traffic is next to nothing,” he said. “They could easily have put some bollards on Army Road (to) create a safer environment for the kids.” Council’s manager for Environment and Engineering Martin Teplik said contractors were hired based on their availability and safety officers checked off on the site.

“Council officers attended the site to ensure pedestrian safety was being maintained by the contractor as required,” Mr Teplik said. But that was not always the case according to another Pakenham Hills parent Tarzi Lee who said there was no traffic management in place as kids arrived at school on Thursday 9 October. “I called council this morning who gave me the excuse traffic management can’t start until after 9.30am. Whatever happened to Safety First?” she wrote on Facebook. Kids and carers at the Pakenham North Early Learning Centre have been experiencing the same problem with blocks of footpath closed off for repairs. “We walk the kids to and from

school morning and afternoon, sometimes 10 at a time, and we have had to take extra staff to usher them across the grass and around flag poles and workers,” kinder teacher Jess Chandler said. Pakenham Hills Primary School principal Dale Hendrick said while the updates didn’t take long, they were poorly planned. “The area closest to school is the narrowest to the road and should have been worked on first,” he said. “It’s been inconvenient for kids but will in the long run make it safer for everybody.” Council said footpath maintenance started every year from September all the way in April the following year as a means of protecting pedestrian safety.

Salads and greens are the order of day THERE will be plenty of cooks in the kitchen at Rivendell House after a fun morning of salad basket making. Residents from the aged care facility took to Bunnings in Pakenham on Wednesday 8 October to shine up their gardening skills as well as share a laugh or two.

The baskets, packed with leafy greens, were a way of helping residents jazz up their dinner plates as well as learn new gardening skills for the home. Residents brought home their salad baskets, excited to experient with their sustainable, healthy garden patch.

Our thin blue line By LIA SPENCER A SENIOR Sergeant says there needs to be more police in Casey to combat local crime. About 100 people attended a community rally in Berwick on Saturday, held by The Police Association of Victoria, to reinforce its call on all major parties heading into November’s state election to boost police resources in Casey to keep up with its booming population growth. The Secretary of The Police Association of Victoria, Senior Sergeant Ron Iddles said police officers in Casey were “stretched to the limit.” “Casey needs an additional 155 first-response officers during the next five years just to reach and then maintain the current Victorian average ratio of 102 officers for every 100,000 people,” he said. “If they don’t have more officers, police won’t be able to keep up with the demand.” Sen Sgt Iddles said theft of motor cars and assaults were on the rise and detected drugs offences were down because there was a “lack of police.” “Drug defences are a detected crime, so if they are down, that just tells me there is a lack of police on the street,” he said. Sen Sgt Iddles said there also needed to be a new police station in Berwick South to cater for the growing population. Berwick resident Beverley LeGuier attended the event to show her support. Her husband was a police officer who was shot on duty in the 1970s and survived, and her daughter is a serving member with 27 years’ experience. “I heard that this rally was happening and thought I better go because it’s near and dear to my heart,” she said. “I am concerned about the safety

Sen Sgt Iddles said he would continue campaigning until both Labor and Liberal pledge their commitment.

“Residents are concerned and don’t want to be left in a situation where there is a lack of police in their community,” he said. Police Minister Kim Wells said the government would reveal its law and order policies “in the lead up to the November election”, but did not specify a date. “As Minister, I also have an open and ongoing discussion with the Police Association,” he said. “Fresh figures revealed today show

that since November 2010 the Napthine Government has now delivered more than 1818 new police officers across the State. “As part of this election commitment, the Southern Metro Region, Division 3, which includes the Casey Police Service area, has received a total of 84 extra police officers, which means a 16 per cent rise in frontline police officers on the beat. “The City of Casey also has a 24hour operational police response."

Don’t get towed away! TRAILERS are on the move in Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia - in the hands of thieves. Police are warning the community to be vigilant following an unusually high number of trailer thefts in the region over the past three months. Thieves stole 72 trailers in the south east between 1 July and 28 September at all times of the day and night. Inspector Terry Rowlands said most of the stolen trailers were unsecured and in residential front yards or nature strips. “The offenders are simply towing them away - it’s an opportunistic crime that can be easily prevented,” he said. “We’re urging the community to be aware and secure their property including cars, bicycles, boats and trailers. “If possible, use chains and tow hitch locking devices to secure them to a post or tree and park in well-lit areas. “We ask that people report suspicious activity immediately by calling triple-zero.” Insp Rowlands urged people with information about previous thefts to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au.

ified for future work. Narre Warren South MP Judith Graley echoed Mr Olivares’s concern, referencing recent youth unemployment statistics for ages 15 to 24 analysed by the Brotherhood of St Laurence. Last month the Brotherhood released it analysis of Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data, indicating a 12.9 per cent monthly youth unemployment rate in Victoria’s south-east to July 2014 compared to an 11.7 monthly rate to July 2013. “The job queues are growing daily as struggling businesses in the south-east are forced to close their doors and young people are denied the opportunity to get a start in life,” Ms Graley said. “I am constantly contacted by young people in my elector-

ate who are finding it desperately hard to get a job.” But a Government spokesperson questioned the severity of the statistics, pointing to other ABS figures. “The youth (aged 15-24) unemployment rate in Melbourne’s south-east is currently 13.2 per cent using a 12 month average to August 2014,” the spokesperson said. “This compares to 13 per cent in the 12 months to November 2010 (Labor’s last year in office) - so only a slight increase in four years and below the state youth unemployment rate of 14.1 per cent. “Also, the number of youth unemployed in Melbourne’s south-east has fallen from 8700 (12 month average to November 2010) to 8400 (12 month average to August 2014).”

A HALLAM-based youth worker has warned of worsening youth unemployment in Casey. Youthworks Victoria manager Claude Olivares said he thought the youth unemployment divide was continuing to widen throughout the municipality. “There are so many young people who have left school early or have been unable to complete further study or training that are now finding themselves unable to find work,” he said. “We are doing all we can to educate, train and empower these young people but there are always more looking for help. “These kids need our help, they need our guidance and more must be done to ensure they have the same opportunities as anyone else.” Mr Olivares said one of the biggest current issues in Casey was students dropping out several years before completing their VCE. “The biggest problem is too many kids dropping out of year 9 and year 10 and we have a huge problem with a lot of Pacific Islander youth that are completely disengaged,” he said. “There’s no agency or resources out there to help them and they fall through the cracks.” The Hallam-based Youthworks provides a range of programs and services for the youth of Casey to become qual-

I JUST can’t sit by without addressing Ms Choudhry’s comments (Islam Answers Back, News Opinion, 9 October). I suggest that she obtain a copy of the Holy Qur’an translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali. Obviously, l cannot comment on all the points she makes in her letter to the editor, so l have chosen one point to investigate: girls/women of the Qur’an (the bracketed numbers are the direct reference from the translated Qur’an) 1. (4:3) It allows men to marry up to four wives and also to have sex with slave girls. 2. (65:4) It allows for marriage to pre-pubescent girls. 3. (2.223) Your wives are as a tilth unto you: so approach your tilth when and how ye will. And in a tradition Mohammad details the qualities of a good wife, including that “she obey when instructed” and “the husband is pleased to look at her”. 4. 29 January 1981. The great Sheikh of Al-Azhar (the most famous University of the Islamic World) stated that parents must follow the lessons of Muhammad and not listen to medical authorities because the latter often change their minds. Parents must do their duty and have their daughters circumcised. The Qur’an decrees women’s subordination to men in numerous other verses. There is a lot of evidence to support Mr. Woolf’s letter (State Of Islam, News Opinion, 2 October). French officials recently stated in the press “that there are places within the Muslim enclaves in Paris that the police will not enter". Muslim schools in Birmingham, UK, are indoctrinating their students to hate all nonMuslim believers. l applaud Mr Woolf for speaking out, he has only said what a lot of people are thinking. S F Edgar, Berwick.

Qur’an quotes

NAUREEN Choudry in her letter (Islam Answers Back, News, Opinion, 9 October) is either very ignorant of what is going on in the world, as well as ignorant of the Qur’an, or is following the Islamic doctrine of taqiyya (lies and deceit to further Islam). She asks for evidence of some of Mr Woolf’s statements (State Of Islam, News Opinion, 2 October), all of which are true. This evidence is readily available from authoritative and reliable sources, such as Amnesty International and at www.gatestone. com, which documents Muslim activities around the world, as well as from numerous other reliable sites on the internet. I will mention only two of her queries. Firstly, she should certainly know that that under Sharia law women are worth only half the value of men. Surely this is “denigrating” women.

Warneet foreshore. 124693 Secondly, she says “there are no Muslims in Africa trying to take over different countries and trying to implement Sharia law by force”. Boko Haram in Nigeria has started to occupy towns and villages in north-eastern Nigeria, declaring that the territory under its control is part of an Islamic caliphate, and imposing Islam everywhere it goes, forcing residents to observe strict Islamic sharia law or be killed. Also, very recently in Libya, the Islamist militant group Ansar al-Sharia took strategic parts of the city of Benghazi, and declared it to be an Islamic Emirate independent from the rest of Libya. Both of these are easily confirmed by searching the internet (for example at allafrica.com). I agree with Naureen Choudry urging people to read books to find out about Islam. If people read the Qur’an, they would read the following statements and commandments. Jews are “apes and pigs” (2:63-65, 5:5960, 7:166), Jews and Christians who reject Muhammad are “the most vile of created beings” (98:6), “Jihad is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it” (2:216), “fight... until all religion is for Allah” (8:39), "Fight and slay the pagans wherever you find them and seize them, confine them, and lie in wait for them in every place of ambush" (9:5), and many more similar. Do these show Islam to be “a religion of peace, empathy, love and compassion” as Naureen Choudry claims? And what about the acts of jihad like the destruction of the twin towers, numerous suicide bombings, including the Bali bombing, and the actions of the Islamic states, all of which are fully justified by the Qur’an? Are these “beautiful”? John Rodda, Pakenham.

Secondary support IT IS hard to miss the fact that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There is pink everywhere and there are many inspiring stories of survival. Yet often forgotten during October are the thousands of Australian women are living with incurable breast cancer. I am one of those women. Secondary breast cancer, also known as advanced, metastatic or stage four breast cancer, is when the cancer has spread from the original site in the breast to other parts of the body such as the bones, lungs, or liver. Secondary breast cancer is currently incurable although it can be treated and managed, sometimes for many years. This year Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) acknowledged Secondary Breast Cancer Awareness Day for the first time in Australia on Monday 13 October. We know that around 2700 Australian women pass away from secondary breast cancer each year but we don’t know exactly how many are living with advanced disease. Unfortunately many women living with secondary breast cancer are unaware of the support available, such as BCNA’s free Hope and Hurdles pack. If you or someone you love has been recently diagnosed with secondary breast can-

Stand, don't shout I REFER to the letter from Don Moyes (Dereliction of Duty, News, Opinion, 9 October). In my 20 years on council I have only replied to one other letter in the Opinion section of the paper. I find it remarkable that a man who has been trying to get a resolution to a problem for 13 years and now attacks Cr Susan Serey because she did not get an answer to you within a month or two. Don, you're becoming a grumpy old man like me - and in all those years I have never seen you write a kind word about anyone. Talking to Susan, she informs me that she has replied to your calls. We attack young people for not putting their hands up and committing. And this young lady has and you abuse her for doing so. And at the end of your letter you have a throw away line that it’s your turn next. Well you have to put your hand up to be elected and she has the courage to put hers up and to be judged by the people in Narre Warren South. And my throw away line is that she is getting a favourable response from the officers. So it looks like she has achieved it for you. This is a remarkable young lady who works as hard as anyone I have seen on council in all those years. The City of Casey is a better place because of Susan Serey and I’m lucky to have her as my ward partner. Mick Morland, Edrington Ward councillor, City of Casey.

Back the call STATISTICS prove the need for an increase in numbers of first response police officers for Casey. The state average is 102 for every 100,000 persons - Casey has 60 for every 100,000 persons. Casey’s population is expected to soar by 13 per cent over the next five years - this would exacerbate the problem further. These statistics (Cops Cry For Help, News, 9 October) certainly cries for help. The wheels of government move painfully slow. I earnestly urge the contestants viewing for election in the forthcoming state elections to place the need for beefing up the police numbers in the district of Casey as a priority. Hand in hand I urge residents to be vigilant, look out for your neighbour, with a nosey mentality. Endeavour Hills has already had its unwanted, harrowing experience of attack on a policeman, stalwarts defending our community. “Prevention is better than cure.” I urge the State Government to place the region of Casey on its priority list for increase of police numbers. Milroy Martyn, Endeavour Hills.

Faith tie-up CASEY police will work closely with local faith groups to monitor potential safety concerns within the community, following last month’s shooting of terror suspect Numan Haider. The 18-year-old was fatally shot outside the Endeavour Hills police station on Tuesday, 23 September, after stabbing a Victoria Police officer and an Australian Federal Police member. This week Senior Sergeant Daniel Baynes, from the Endeavour Hills station, said Victoria Police had a “proud history” of working in partnership with the multi-faith and multicultural community, and recognised the relationship as one of “mutual trust and respect.” “Following recent events,

police in the Southern Metro area have been and will continue to work closely with local faith and community groups to closely monitor and identify concerns and ensure community safety,” Sen Sgt Baynes said. “Victoria Police takes the welfare of its members very seriously and additional support services have been provided to police in the local area. “Victoria Police wants every Victorian to feel safe and secure in the community and in pursuing their values, beliefs and interests - and that includes the community here in Endeavour Hills.” Sen Sgt Baynes urged anyone who witnessed, or is subject to, racism and discrimination to inform their local police immediately. “Police take all incidents of

racism, discrimination or vilification based on religion, culture or nationality, seriously,” he said. “We will investigate all reports, and those offending will be arrested and charged.” Detectives became aware of Mr Haider about three months ago when he first came into contact with Victoria Police. His passport was later suspended. It’s understood Mr Haider had been brandishing an Islamic State flag outside Dandenong Plaza Shopping Centre days before the shooting. Suspicious activity can be reported by contacting the National Security Hotline on 1800 123 400. Acts of religious or racial vilification can be reported by contacting triple-zero. Officers from the Endeavour Hills police station are urging anyone who witnesses racism or discrimination to inform their local police immediately, following last month's shooting.

Race craze in the sun By BRIDGET SCOTT HUNDREDS soaked in the sun at the Cranbourne Racecourse last Sunday, 11 October, for the annual Cranbourne Cup which proved to be a hit with guests again. Bets were placed and places were picked all amid the excitement of race day. The new grandstand was put to work and hosted plenty of the guests who enjoyed a meal and drinks while they watched over the race track.

Star News Group photographer ROB CAREW was there to catch plenty of the action, which included drinking, dancing and most importantly, betting. There was something there for everyone, with Fashions on the Fields for ladies, entertainment for kids and an impressive field of horses for the men. Mark Seymour entertained the crowd with a number of hit songs and got people off their picnic rugs and deck chairs to dance away the day.

Passion for race fashion FASHIONABLE fillies frocked up and made their way to the Cranbourne Racecourse last Sunday - not to watch the horses run though. Around 20 ladies trotted along the runway on Sunday 12 October for the annual Fashions on the Field event which played host to two categories this year. The title of Young Lady of the Day and Mature Lady of the Day were up for grabs, with one local lady thrilled to grab first prize. Narre Warren girl Tea Blagojevic was over the moon to win the Young Lady of the Day category with her pant suit inspired by George Clooney’s new wife. “If George Clooney’s wife can wear it, then so can I,” she said. Despite her young age, Ms Blagojevic is no stranger to the catwalk and said she’s been part of these competitions before. “I’ve placed third in the Cranbourne Cup one year, but this is the first time I’ve won,” she said. Her Ted Baker-designed pant suit was a hit with the judges, who said they were

looking for people to “keep it along etiquette lines suitable for the races.” Judge Claire O’Brien, who wore a Review outfit, said she was “loving the look of prints, colours and classic lengths.” Runner-up Young Lady of the Day Ashleigh Barri designed her own dress, and said she started with a heap of materials last December. The contestant from Kew said her designs take a long time to come together. Ms Barri described the Fashions on the Field events as her hobby. “Once you start competing, you can never stop,” she said. Following this, the older women stepped on to the stage for Mature Lady of the Day and stole back the show. It was a bittersweet result for the winner and runner-up, both of whom are friends and met through Fashions on the Field competitions. Rosalyn Czermak from Bentleigh took out the first prize and had bought her outfit online. Ms Czermak said this wasn’t her first time competing and said she “always has fun.”

Far left: Lady of the Day RunnerUp Jenny Beard, left, and Lady of the Day Winner Rosalyn Czermak. 128790

“I love the country races,” she said. “It’s one of my favourite events.” She said it was her first time being crowned winner, but she has placed in the Pakenham Fashions on the Field before. Runner-up Jenny Beard from Langwarrin South said she met Ms Czermak through these events. “You might come by yourself but always end up spending the day with a great group of friends,” she said. Ms Beard designed her own dress and said it was a rush to finish it that morning. “I actually put the buttons and button holes on this morning,” she said.

Wheel clever By CASEY NEILL A KEYSBOROUGH student has overcome family tragedy to leave school with a 97.25 ATAR - and a shiny new car. Sena Kocoglu’s younger brother Abdullah died in 2011 following a fire that also left his twin Omar with severe burns. Last Monday, 6 October, the 18-year-old drove home to Hampton Park from Mt Hira College in a black Suzuki Swift. The school’s business manager Nadir Yildiz last year suggested the board offer a car to any student who scored over 95 in their VCE. “I thought it would encourage the students, because we are a new school, to get better results,” he said. Sena was the first to receive the reward, from Booran Suzuki in Dandenong. “It’s surreal. It’s amazing,” she said. “The school doing this... I feel like the school just keeps wiping away the problems I have at every stage in my life. “I wasn’t expecting to be able to get a car.” Sena - who moved up from Grade 5 to Year 7 - is now studying psychology at the University of Melbourne. “I’d like to be a psychologist. I’d like to venture out into business as well,” she said. “Business was my favourite subject at school and the only one I got a perfect score in.” The 2013 Mt Hira school captain when receiving her car keys told current students that her results were worth her

Principal Pat Gay said Sena was a kid “that really deserves something extra”. “The past couple of years have been very traumatic for the family,” she said. Abdullah died in the Royal Children’s Hospital on 24 April 2011 from complications following a fire in his family’s garage on 14 February. Coroner Kim Parkinson determined Abdullah had lit the fire while playing with matches, and described the incident as a very tragic event that had forever touched many people. “Many of the family’s neighbours and bystanders responded immediately and bravely to a shocking situation where the little boys had suffered dreadful injuries,” he said.

Sena said the tragedy “took a massive toll on me and my family”. “It was hard to push through it,” she said. “But when you come to a school like this and you’ve got support from the board members and all the teachers here and my parents and my friends - it was easier than it would have been if I was at any other school. “It was tough but the school catered to me a lot. “The teachers helped me catch up with everything, and whenever I needed to take a day off were fine with it. “That wasn’t an extra stress. “The school was like an extra family. I grew up here.” Omar, now seven, and their sister Bucu, 16, are current Mt Hira students. “They already have that same family around them,” Sena said.

“THERE is always hope.” The tattoo on Stewart Baird’s left forearm was as clear as day; a simple message for everyone to remember. But for the coach of the Casey Cavaliers men’s Big V basketball team, who was recently signed to a new five-year deal, that message carries a deeper meaning. Last Friday, on World Mental Health Day, he sat down with the News to talk about his chronic clinical depression. It’s something Stewart has been battling for decades - possibly since early childhood when his parents divorced when he was two and his stepfather died when he was nine. He hasn’t tried to hide it, either, with close friends and family providing a constant source of strength. But last year, in a Facebook post, he opened up publicly about his journey. The reaction and the support he received blew him away. Along the journey Stewart has dealt with more than his fair share of personal loss, losing one of his four older sisters who died suddenly in her mid-fifties, and it’s all contributed to his battle. But his wife Vicki and kids Kobe and Jordan have been a beacon of strength to help him through the dark times. “There’s the stage where you probably start to think there is a problem but whether it’s a male thing or not you tend to ignore it and push it away,” Stewart said. “Then you get to the point

where you cross a line of some sort and you realise you have to seek some help - something’s definitely not right. “It’s about having people around you who understand that. “As I get better and more able to manage it I almost feel like I owe it to people to talk about it because so many people suffer from it or versions of it and feel like they can’t talk about it." He estimates that it was 15 years ago when everything was “pissing him off” just enough to make an appointment with a psychologist. He worked through things and by his own admission felt fine until this basketball coach experienced rebounds of a different kind a little over five years ago when he was diagnosed with depression. “I think because of our blokey, ‘she’ll be right mate’, tough as nails culture I think it probably messes with us even more,” he said. “I think there’s an inherent nature to want to be able to beat anything and this is not a disease that you readily beat.” He might not be able to beat depression but he feels empowered by being able to shed a personal light on the dark nature of the ailment. “If there’s 1,000,000 of us out there and 999,990 aren’t talking about it then the other 10 are going to be pretty lonely and no-one is going to learn a thing about it. “I feel like I have a responsibility to talk about it.” If you or anyone you know wants to seek help, visit www.beyondblue.org.au.

The tattoo on Casey Cavaliers coach Stewart Baird's left forearm provides a constant reminder that there's always hope. 129056 Pictures: RUSSELL BENNETT

TIMELESS DESIGN BUYERS with a discerning eye for early 20s century architecture will love Red Bluff Homes’s take on the iconic Californian bungalow. The Californian pays homage to the timeless design principals which originated in America in the early 20th century and were popular in Australia in the 1920s and ‘30s. The façade of the home is immediately recognisable as a Californian bungalow with its distinctive front porch, incorporating stone and brickwork, framing the main building. The quality of the build is immediately evident in the portico’s timber decking and timber ceiling. Art deco touches, including ceiling roses, lighting and decorative cornices, feature throughout the front of the house, before the rear gives way to a more contemporary feel. High ceilings and above average door heights add to the spacious feel of the interior. The master bedroom, featuring a large window looking over the porch, includes his and hers walk-in wardrobes and a spacious ensuite, with separate toilet,

1152449-KC38-14

glass shower and double vanity. There are four distinct living zones including a theatre room, family space, meal area and a rumpus space. A sunken double sided fireplace is a stunning central feature. The kitchen, with double oven and stone benchtops, includes a discreet butler’s pantry. A further three bedrooms are arranged around a media room with built-in desks which provide the perfect space for younger members of the family to study or use technology. Quality timber craftsmanship continues through to the rear entertaining deck. The Californian combines the quality and style of yesteryear with a modern twist. It offers 39.59 squares, including the double garage and porch, and prices start at $189,900 for the three bedroom version. Buyers should take a drive through beautiful West Gippsland to see The Californian for themselves at 6 Cedarwood Drive, Warragul.

MONTH FOR PINK CENTURY THIS October the entire Century 21 family in Australia have gone from gold to pink. The only Australian realtors to be highly recognised by their gold jackets are all pink in support of The Pink Ribbon Foundation, which incorporates the Cancer Council. In typical Century 21 On Main Pakenham style, the team are right behind the cause with tailored pink jackets, $100 for every jacket, with proceeds going to this great cause. The team also conducted a street barbecue on Saturday 4 October with pink ribbon merchandise and again all funds went to the cause.

Pens, badges and pink ribbon merchandise has been purchased by the team in continuing support. On the Saturday local real estate icon Cheryl Mann, director of Pakenham, was assisted by her team of office manager Carol Verrall, the rental team of Jodie, Jane and Stacey, alongside the sales force, all chipped in for this outstanding cause that is likely to affect most people. And it doesn’t end there because for the entire month Century 21 will be in pink raising much needed funds and awareness for the cause. Drop in to Century 21 at 103 Main Street, Pakenham, and buy

We don’t mind if you change our plans. It’s called layout flexibility. Arden Homes is a different sort of company creating very different homes. Firstly, our homes are architect designed and inspired to bring a new sense of space, light and sweeping architectural proportions. You sense the difference immediately. Innovative sun courts, picture windows and full length windows and views that connect inside and out are hallmarks of our design. We insist on luxury standard inclusions such as porcelain tiles, Smeg appliances, Franke sinks, quality carpet, and stone benchtops throughout. Secondly, we limit the number of houses we build, and are up-front about the pricing of display home extras. “Arden let us swap rooms around so our new home is exactly as we want it.” – Sharon and Michael, Croydon And best of all, we encourage layout ﬂexibility. It means you can work with us to switch and swap rooms and features to suit your lot size, orientation and family needs. Visit an Arden display to see and feel the difference. And ask us how we can tailor the design to make one of our stunning homes your unique dream home.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

High view from top By BRIDGET SCOTT THE excitement of this year’s Casey-Cardinia Business Awards could be felt from the moment people entered the Cardinia Cultural Centre last week. The building was transformed and illuminated to honour the hardworking business men and women in the community, and decked out to celebrate a number of local business achievements across the past 12 months. An accounting firm with its head office in Cranbourne took our the most acclaimed award for the night. Highview Accounting Services was announced the 2014 Casey-Cardinia Business of the Year. Partner Silvio Marinelli accepted this award, as well as two others on behalf of the team. The firm stole the spotlight on the night, after it was also awarded the Business and Professional Services Award, as well as the Environment Sustainability Award, as recognised by the judges. Mr Marinelli, who said he “is better with numbers than with words” was nearly lost for words by the time his team took to the stage for the third time. “I am good with numbers, we won three awards, so that’s good,” he said. Highview Accounting Firm operates three offices, with one in Prahran, another in Mornington and its head office in Cranbourne. The unique accounting service was recognised for its carbon neutral status which it gained in 2009. Prior to the awards, marketing manager Brodie Crowther said: “We wanted clients to be able to come here and take things to another level and provide a strategy for any situation.”

Inaugural awards: a night of nights By GARRY HOWE STAR NEWS GROUP EDITOR

The team from D’Angelo's Estate Vineyard (from left) Sabrina D’Angelo, Antonietta D’Angelo, David Gadsden, Domenico D’Angelo, Benny D’Angelo, Duncan Hopgood, Rosie Hopgood, Antonietta D’Angelo and Domenico D’Angelo. The team jumped for joy when it was announced as the business of the year, up against two other companies which had also been recognised with other awards on the night. This was the first year the City of Casey and Cardinia Shire had combined the awards which proved to be a huge success, with a highly esteemed guest in the audience. Governor of Victoria Alex Chernov attended the evening and announced the recipient of the business of the year award. Guests were asked to stand when the Honourable Alex Chernov en-

tered the room, and he later addressed the crowd with an engaging and entertaining speech. He congratulated both the winners, as well as those who didn’t receive the awards, and kept everyone on the edge of their seats as he paused before opening the winning envelope to congratulate the judges. Both mayors, Graeme Moore and Geoff Ablett, thanked the Governor for attending the ceremony after he had spent the day in the Cardinia Shire. Cr Ablett said the joining of these two award ceremonies was a “defin-

ing moment in the Casey-Cardinia relationship.” Cr Moore opened the evening and said that “the Casey-Cardinia partnership is committed to responding to the business community’s needs.” “We’ve joined forces with Casey to recognise and celebrate,” he said. “We are an active, competitive and diverse business economy, and we are proud of the partnership between the two municipalities.”

Noted TV journalist Tracey Curro did a great job as MC.

OH What A Night! Frankie Valli and his Four Seasons could well have been referring to the inaugural Casey Cardinia Business Awards presentation dinner when they first crooned that famous line back in the ‘60s. The night had everything - made you laugh, made you cry - and there was a great buzz in the room. Victorian Governor Alex Chernov added a bit of pomp and ceremony to the occasion as a surprise guest and won the crowd with charm and wit when he took to the stage. The tone was set early when Jenny and Dan Patience from JD Propagation in Pearcedale made their way up to the stage to accept the first award, in the Agriculture and Primary Industries Category, and were followed by a conga line of staff. It seemed like half the room had stood to make the stage. Highview Accounting’s Silvio Marinelli earned a playful punch in the arm from compere Tracey Curro when he pointed out that he had a poster of the glamorous TV journalist on his wall during his teenage years. Silvio made his way to the stage three times - accepting category awards for Business and Professional Services and Environmental Sustainability and the top gong as Business of the Year. He apologised for not being as articulate as he would have liked, reasoning that he was better with figures than words, then applied the numbers and declared that three awards added up to a pretty good night. Touche! There was hardly a dry eye in the house after Michelle Jankovic from Helping Hand Is Here accepted her award in the Home Based category. Most were moved as Michelle explained how she had started the business out of the frustration she experienced as a mother of a child with a mild form of cerebral palsy trying to access medical and support services. Helping Hand Is Here now seeks to make that journey easier for other parents. Social responsibility seemed to be a common theme among a lot of the successful businesses, a fact not lost on the Governor when he spoke, and they were certainly a diverse bunch. The winners ranged from Berwick-based Australian Precision Technologies, which develops components to send worldwide to the likes of Boeing, to a group of mums making life easier for those in the preschool community under the banner of Kinders Together. The winners and sponsors all spoke well and added to the positive vibe, although MP Inga Peulich should have had more sense of the occasion and cut her political spiel by two-thirds. Judges had their work cut out separating candidates in several categories, such was the depth of talent. Some may have left disappointed, but that always happens at award nights. All due respect to the Garfield girls, but this is not kindergarten and not everyone goes home with a prize. Hats off to the economic development departments of Casey and Cardinia for bringing the awards together and putting on such an inspirational and uplifting night - and to Khan’s Catering for again feeding and watering the 420 guests so professionally. There will be a bit of fine tuning with the process, given it was the first year as combined awards, but in the wash-up the 2014 Casey Cardinia Business Awards can only be deemed an outstanding success. * Garry Howe has been a judge of the Cardinia Business Awards for the past six years and was also part of the panel for the first combined awards this year.

Her mane aim is to care By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

Ezmeralda joined the Doveton Riding for Disabled Centre when she was 12 and was one of the youngest people volunteering there at the time. Mum Annamaria said her daughter’s commitment to the centre had been unwavering since she started volunteering at the facility three years ago. “She has horse experience, my children ride. She’s very good around horses and making them comfortable, high spirited little things that they can be,” she said. “She tacks up the horses, cleans up the horses and helps as a side walker.”

THE only thing Ezmeralda Gulian might love more than volunteering is spending time with horses. It seems fitting, then, that Ezmeralda from Doveton was announced this month as the Young Volunteer of the Year runner-up in the State Government’s 2014 Community Sport and Recreation Awards because of her work with the Doveton Riding for Disabled Centre. It comes after the 15-year-old had already won the 2014 Riding for the Disabled Association of Victoria Young Volunteer Award.

Beaconsfield Podiatry

Ezmeralda said the award nomination came as a shock, but a welcome one. “I was a bit nervous and really excited as well,” she said. “I’m one of the youngest that work there and I know a lot about the horses already and was able to help out a lot. “They didn’t need to teach me the basics because I ride elsewhere; I was really good with the riders and horses.” The 2014 Community Sport and Recreation Awards were held on Wednesday 1 October at the MCG and recognised a range of the state’s best volunteers across eight categories.

Medically Speaking

Annamaria also said her own involvement with children with additional needs had seemingly inspired Ezmeralda. “The first thing was to give back to the community, that’s how this started. It’s become a part of her life, really,” he said. “I’ve always worked with children with additional needs, they love horses. And it was about finding something where I felt comfortable leaving Ezmeralda. “She’s dealing with adults and children and I hope this will show her how fortunate we are. If she gets that out of it we’ve done our job.”

St John of God Hospital surgeon Mr Leigh Reeves with a patient.

Best to be breast aware LIZ Newstead, Breast Care nurse at St John of God Berwick Hospital, encourages all women to check their breasts regularly. Finding breast cancer early provides the best chance of surviving the disease. Remember, you don’t need to be an expert or use a special technique to check your breasts. Many people do not realise that men can develop breast cancer. Both men and women have breast tissue. In 2010, 14,181 women and 127 men were diagnosed with breast cancer in Australia. Breast cancer remains the most common cancer among Australian

women (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer). Survival rates continue to improve in Australia with 89 out of every 100 women diagnosed with invasive breast cancer now surviving five or more years beyond diagnosis. Changes to look for include: a new lump or lumpiness, especially if it’s only in one breast a change in the size or shape of your breast a change to the nipple, such as crusting, ulcer, redness or inversion a nipple discharge that occurs without squeezing

· · · ·

· a change in the skin of your breast such as redness or dimpling · an unusual pain that doesn’t go

away. Most changes aren’t due to breast cancer, but it’s important to see your doctor without delay if you notice any of these changes. Mammographic screening every two years is recommended for women aged 50-74 years, though it is available to women from 40 years of age. Younger women in high risk groups may be screened by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). In February 2015, the new St

John of God Berwick Specialist Centre will open on Kangan Drive. Incorporated into this building is an expanded day chemotherapy unit with 12 chairs, radiotherapy treatment, MIA X-Ray services as well as oncologist consulting. This will mean cancer patients will be able to be treated locally now for both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. What a relief for many people who currently have to travel daily for their radiotherapy or weekly for their chemotherapy. Please talk to your GP with any concerns you may have. www.cancercouncil.org.au

Spring into it SPRING has arrived and so has the fresh produce at the Berwick Farmers’ Market, held in the grounds of the picturesque Old Cheese Factory, Berwick. The selection of fresh fruit and vegetables available at the market is amazing. Obtain a recipe card from the asparagus stallholder and learn how to use this wonderful vegetable. Try the fantastic swiss brown mushrooms for purchase from The Mushroom Man. He is an enthusiastic, friendly stallholder who will advise about storing this fantastic product and the health benefits that fresh mushrooms contain. The fruits of spring are beginning to appear, particularly strawberries. Purchase a punnet or two and enjoy with your favourite ice cream or on breakfast cereal. Spring is also the time for salads. Look for the great salad components that can purchase from stallholders.

The market will be held on Saturday 25 October and is an opportunity for teams to raise last minute funding before next month’s Relay for Life.

Mayor linked to Cup race winners By RUSSELL BENNETT FOR the training team of champion bay gelding Mourinho, Sunday’s $200,000 TAB Cranbourne Cup win isn’t the only connection it has to the City of Casey. Mayor Geoff Ablett taught brothers Peter and Manny Gelagotis at Warragul Primary School and the former Hawthorn star was also their footy coach in Moe. He knows better than anyone just what Sunday’s result would have meant to them. It was their second country cup win in two days after Simmering won the $15,000 Manangatang Cup in front of a huge crowd on Saturday. “It was a fantastic day,” Ablett said. “Both boys are just fantastic blokes.” In that regard, Ablett said nothing had really changed since he taught them in the 1970s. “They were really good kids then and they’re still very good, hard workers now,” he said. “I hope they go on to bigger and better things, like winning a Caulfield Cup, for example.” Ablett went on to say that both Cranbourne Cup day, as an event, and the new grandstand were “big pluses for Cranbourne”. “The likes of Greg Eurell and Robbie Griffiths love it and I hope there might soon come a day when trainers from Caulfield consider making the switch,” he said. “Everyone raved about the new grandstand they all gave it a huge thumbs up.” Mourinho finished third in last year’s Cranbourne Cup behind German import Pakal and led from start to finish in a super impressive performance in this year’s race.

Job done! Peter Gelagotis, right, was all smiles after Craig Newitt and Mourinho stormed to victory in the Cranbourne Cup. 128791 Picture: ROB CAREW

Storm brewing... grab your hat By DAVID NAGEL CLUBS in the Casey Cardinia Football Netball League (CCNFL) are standing firm as they seek a withdrawal of membership from their governing body, the Mornington Peninsula Nepean Football League (MPNFL), which trades as PCN Sports Alliance. In an unprecedented show of no confidence, the clubs have cited poor communication, a lack of trust, exorbitant fees, poor strategic direction and a lack of service and attention as some of the reasons why they are looking to break free from PCNSA and govern their own competition in 2015. The clubs - Beaconsfield, Berwick, Cranbourne, Doveton, Hampton Park, Narre Warren, Pakenham, ROC and Tooradin - sent a letter to PCNSA on 2 October requesting a special general meeting to gain exemption from MPNFL Rule 14.1, which states 12 months’ notice must be given of a club’s intention to resign. In response to the letter, PCNSA invited all 18 presidents, from football and netball, to a meeting to discuss the clubs’ grievances. The invitation has been unanimously declined, PCNSA now having until 23 October to conduct the meeting with clubs, where the PCN board will vote to either

deny or grant the exemption. If granted, the clubs will be free to go but, in the more likely case the request is denied, grievance and dispute mediation with the Department of Justice would take place and the clubs would likely appeal the decision with AFL Vic Country. Spokesman for the clubs, Narre Warren president Kahl Heinze, said the clubs were united in their cause. “We felt strongly enough to remove our club hats and put our league hats on for the betterment and growth of football in Casey Cardinia,” he said. “As a group - and that’s all of the football and netball clubs combined - we are unanimous in expressing our extreme dissatisfaction with the level of service and attention we have received from the MPNFL.” PCNSA chief executive officer Jeff Jones admits he had heard whispers of discontent but was not expecting the level of action. “It is a little bit surprising, to be full-blown to this level,” Mr Jones said. It’s understood PCNSA’s decision to be the only governing football body in Victoria not signed up to one of the 13 AFL Regional Commissions has also put it off side with the clubs and put noses out of place at a higher level.

Yabbies tossed in the deep end By JARROD POTTER WOMEN’S COMMUNITY CRICKET COMPETITION - SOUTH EAST THERE was no easing back into the women’s cricket ranks for Pakenham Upper-Toomuc as the Yabbies (13) were pummelled by Ringwood (4/172). Ringwood won the toss and batted first in the Women’s Community Cricket Competition (WCCC) South East season opener, with Cass Ager (2/37) opening the Yabbies’ wicket-taking accounts as she bowled Jessica Adams (2). Ager would get the next scalp as she caught-andbowled A. Ewison (16) to keep the Rams from charging away with the match early. The Ringwood middle order began to trouble Pakenham Upper-Toomuc’s bowling stocks and created headaches in the field as Elise Hopkins (59), Jessica Exton (26 retired) and Kylie Rule (29 not out) pushed the tally along. The Yabbies’ bowlers toiled to keep the runs down, as an impressive 10 overs came from the miserly Tyler Anderson (1/25). Vicki Hilder (1/22) was another bowler to be seen off without questioning as Ringwood chose to block her out instead of attack her mediumpacers. The Yabbies battled on despite their numerous obstacles, with a new look team of some inexperienced players - one even sporting a cast fielding one-handed. The fielders kept smiling and chased every boundary to the rope which would have impressed Pakenham Upper-Toomuc

Bicycling for glory Longwarry tennis player Darcy Nicholls has flown up the national and state rankings since taking up the sport four years ago. Picture: JARROD POTTER 128825

Up the rankings By JARROD POTTER SOARING up the state and national rankings, Longwarry’s Darcy Nicholls has shown you don’t have to be a metropolitan tennis player to succeed. Nicholls, 11, has only played the sport for four years but in that time he’s risen up the Australian rankings to 33rd in the country for boys born in 2003 and in Victoria he is ranked inside the top 20. It comes on the back of the young ace starting to serve up his best results yet. Nicholls won the Tennis Victoria 2013 Junior Pennant Player of the Year in Mixed 10A - for the player who had the most impressive set results in pennant - as well as winning his first tournament from the number-one seed at the North West JT Championships in Caroline Springs earlier this month. “I guess about four years - I was just going down to the courts - the ones at Bunyip - and saw some coaching and thought I’d like to try that,” Nicholls said. “I really like going around to different places across the state and meeting new people with tennis.” The baseline dynamo’s first tournament win stands out as his best highlight and booked him a place in the Victorian Hardcourt Championships and Nicholls is thrilled to get stuck into the summer season. “Most of them (tennis highlights) probably only came a couple of weeks ago - winning my first ranking tournament and qualifying for the Victorian Hardcourt Championships was good too.” Nicholls’ coach - Ace Active Tennis coach Chris Milidonis - said the work ethic and motivation to learn from his young prodigy was rare in local tennis. Nicholls wanted to thank his parents Andrew and Michelle and coach Milidonis.

CYCLING their way to state glory, riders from St Margaret’s and Berwick Grammar Schools (SMS/BGS) led the field at the Victorian Schools Cycling Championships. The championship finals, held in Bendigo from 10-12 October, were the last chance of the season for riders to impress in the Victorian school cycling season and SMS/BGS riders took to the pedals with aplomb in search of state titles. The schools had a very strong team as they had qualified large numbers through the zone finals that had been running over several months. On Saturday the mountain-bike events were held in typical goldfield country, with lots of rolling hills and rocky gravel-like surface as the local club had mapped out a demanding track in Spring Gully Reserve. St Margaret’s and Berwick Grammar ended the day with gold medals to Susannah Bates, Lachlan Clarke and Sienna Grove, silver to Erin Hanley and Olivia Weston and bronze to Elise Hutchinson. In addition to these there were medals awarded for outstanding performance throughout the zones and state finals and Susannah, Lachlan, Sienna and Elsie all won this award in their respective age groups. The squad went on to take out the prestigious Champion School Award for mountain biking. Sunday morning was warm and it just got hotter as the day went on. The track around the main shopping area of Bendigo was lightning fast and the talent level of riders was high. The St Margaret’s and Berwick Grammar riders built on their work from the previous day to perform at their highest level imaginable. Five more gold medals were won by Susannah Bates, Saffron Button, Ethan and Jordan McDonell and Olivia Weston, silver went to Madeline Blackwood and bronze to Damien Freihofer, Mitchell Graham and Sienna Grove. Several riders beat opponents who had been clearly superior in the zone finals. The ride by Saffron Button was outstanding in tenacity - she was dropped off by the leading riders on two occasions but managed to fight her way back and then win in a sprint finish. Not surprisingly the squad easily took out the Champion School Award for road cycling as well. SMS/BGS led the field in cycling and mountain biking winning eight state champions, fifteen medals and champion school in both disciplines against the best school riders in Victoria.

Lions savaged by Upper Beaconsfield By RUSSELL BENNETT and JARROD POTTER WEST GIPPSLAND CRICKET ASSOCIATION - ROUND 2 REVIEW NEW Upper Beaconsfield Premier skipper Chris Savage showed exactly what can happen when given an early life on Saturday. Dropped soon after coming to the crease, he went on to record a sparkling 86 not out to help his side to what turned out to be a winning 5/197 from its 40 overs against Pakenham at Toomuc Reserve. Lions skipper Jason Williams won the toss and put the visitors in, and the decision paid early dividends with in-form opener Julian Bayard (7) dismissed by spinner Jesse Hayhow. New Upper Beaconsfield recruit, wicket-keeper batsman Jake Serong (14) soon followed and at 2/38 it seemed Pakenham would make light work of last season’s Premier strugglers. But last season’s strugglers could be this season’s surprisepacket. Savage combined with fellow newcomer, opener Robert North (38) for a 70-run stand to set up their side’s total. A valuable 32 from spin bowling all-rounder Scott Pitcher - who missed practically all of last sea-

son through injury - formed a key part of another lasting partnership involving Savage and at the end of their 40 overs, the visitors were in prime position for their second win in as many weeks. Hayhow was the pick of the Lions’ attack with 3/14 but, aside from Chaplin (1/27), just didn’t get enough support - particularly with gun all-rounder Chris Smith nursing a hip injury and unable to bowl. Smith’s (7) torrid individual start to the season continued with the bat, removed early - bowled by Savage. Russ Lehman (43) and Jack Anning (38) then set about the chase but despite their 67-run stand found momentum hard to come by. A less than ideal run rate piled pressure on the rest of the line-up which, aside from Williams’s 53, failed to fire a shot. Ultimately Lehman, Anning and Williams were the only Lions batsmen to reach double figures as Will Haines (3/33), Tommy Tyrrell (3/34) and Savage (2/37) worked their magic in restricting the home side to just 9/172 from their 40 overs and leaving it winless to start the season. SUB-DISTRICT LANG Lang’s Glenn Easton (7/19) feasted on Lion meat after a scintillating spell destroyed Pakenham (9/83 cc).

Leg-spinning all-rounder Scott Pitcher made a valuable 32 not out for Upper Beaconsfield in its Premier win over Pakenham at Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Toomuc Reserve. 128448 Matt Welsh (21) held up his end of the bargain while his team mates were fed to Easton’s burgeoning wicket tally one by one. The only real fight after Welsh came as Aaron Beveridge (20 not out) and captain Shannon Mitchell

(10 not out) batted out the overs and gave some respectability to the Lions’ cause. The Lang Lang response came and went quickly as Hayden Laidlaw (33 not out) and Jess Grima (21) finished the job.

Motoring �� Reviews and news…

Revved for style By EWAN KENNEDY OTHER than using less fuel we haven’t seen any real need to buy turbo-diesel engines in small or midsize cars - until now. That sudden change of mind happened within seconds of us getting behind the wheel of a Mazda3 with a 2.2-litre SkyActive-D diesel engine. The engine is smooth, has minimal lag and revs far more readily than diesels from all other marques. A sports diesel? Yes, it certainly is. The biggrille that’s such a feature of Mazda’s latest styling theme plays a major part in its sales success on every model on which it’s used. While it’s lower than its predecessors, the third generation Mazda3 is longer overall and in its wheelbase. The resulting shorter overhangs give it a sportier look and the longer wheelbase makes for more interior space. The sleek new body not only looks good but also provides best-in-class coefficient of drag, at 0.28 for the hatch. Part of this low number is due to an ‘active’ radiator grille shutter that opens just enough to provide the correct amount of cooling no matter what the outside air temperature. Response is spread through-

Sleek styling of the Mazda3 XD Astina turbo-diesel certainly suits its sporting nature. out the rev range by using twin turbochargers. A small unit operates at low engine speeds, it then works with a large turbo at mid-range speeds. At higher speeds the large unit takes over to supply boost to the greater mass of air the engine demands. This, coupled with a very low compression ratio, gives a nice balance between performance and economy. The new turbo-diesel shows an improvement of up to 12 per cent in fuel efficiency over the previous diesel engine. Mazda’s brake energy regeneration system plays its part in this drop in fuel use and emissions. The i-stop system automatically cuts out the engine after the vehicle comes to a stop. When the brake is released,

fuel is injected into the cylinder to make for a smoother restart of the engine than is normal in other four-cylinder units, petrol or diesel. Six-speed manual and automatic transmissions are offered, our test car had the automatic. Tagged SkyActive-Drive, the auto has a computer link to the engine and cuts engine torque during changes so the car has quick gear changes with minimal shift shock. The Mazda range is available for test drive at Bruce Clough Mazda, Princes Highway, Nar Nar Goon. Phone 5942 5584.
