PREMIER REGIONAL BUSINESS AWARD SPONSOR: National Australia Bank (NAB) WINNER: SRXGlobal FINALISTS: Wurth Australia, Norden Body Works, Wastech Engineering
Innovation’s foot soldiers Business Award to its trophy cabinet. It received the honour at the chamber’s gala dinner at Sandown Greyhounds, Springvale, on 18 March. SRX has established manufacturing facilities in Malaysia and New Zealand and sales offices in Singapore and the UK to complement its headquarters on Kitchen Road. The headquarters has just under 200 employees – from 35 nationalities – and also provides manufacturing and electronic service and repair. General manager Jeff Malone can see the business growing 15 to 20 per cent year on year, with the medical and defence industries the key to making it
happen. He said the company was developing a cheek swab system to replace blood tests and an ultrasound machine the size of a phone. “The doctor walks around the hospital with an ultrasound like a stethoscope,“ he said. “Or forget the hospital – he can go out in the field. “That’s the kind of design and manufacturing that’s happening in Melbourne right now. If we’re not continuously breaking new ground we’ll fall behind.“ SRX creates display systems for attack helicopters, battery power control systems for foot soldier electronics, remote radio communication to base systems and data communication security
products. It also manufactures automotive engine management systems for V8 Supercars, mining and industrial lighting and automatic door control systems. “The list of potential products is endless and in our everincreasing electronic world, still growing,” awards chairman James Sturgess said. Up to 75 per cent of SRXGlobal’s Australian made products end up overseas. “This is a business that is adding value and supporting Australia’s high standard of living,” Mr Sturgess said. “The US is the major recipient of product with Europe following close behind. “Some of the products that the
business manufactures are cutting edge technology and lead the world in their respective areas.” Former Technology Minister Gordon Rich-Phillips officially opened a new $125,000 plant at SRXGlobal in April last year. “Investments like these are demonstrating the confidence that technology companies like SR Global have in Victorian manufacturing and, more broadly, the Victorian economy,” he said. SRXGlobal was nominated for the CSR and Employment, Manufacturing, Retail and Commercial, and Premier Regional Business awards. It was a finalist in the Manufacturing and CSR and Employment categories.
Congratulations to our leading businesses on their nomination for the Regional Business Awards and to our winners. Council’s Economic Development Unit is proud to support local businesses through activities fostering growth in employment, investment and the local economy.

A PRESENTATION OF THE GREATER DANDENONG CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Employee of 40 years Laurie McCoy, business founder Ron Anson, centre, with children Jenny, Robert and Wendy, three of his grandchildren and the Norden team. 136387 Picture: ROB CAREW
Growing through the generations FIVE generations of the Anson family have worked at Norden Body Works. Ron Anson and Dennis Lantsbury founded the company in 1959 to build commercial transport and truck bodies. They started out in Tharle Street, Dandenong, and have been in Norden’s Bennet Street location since 1967. Ron’s father Walter bought Dennis’s share of the business in 1961 and joined him at the helm until he died in 1979. Ron said market gardeners with small trucks were his main clients to start with, then “building an odd semi-trailer or two”. A presentation about his job at a Dandenong Rotary meeting 30 years ago secured the company’s current main income source. The Dandenong Hospital CEO approached him after the meeting and asked him to fit out a disability van. “I didn’t know what he was talking about. I said yes anyway,” he said. Ron’s daughter Wendy worked in administration for 30 years and his son Robert now runs the business after coming on board about 35 years ago.
Robert Anson, sons Aaron and Ryan and father Ron. 133952 Picture: GARY SISSONS
Two of Robert’s five sons now also work there. Aaron, 25, is studying a bachelor of business and working on the workshop floor and Ryan, 20, is a contract manager. “It makes you feel very proud, actually,” Ron said. “Fifty-odd years ago I never dreamt that this would all happen. “Fifty-odd years ago it was a matter of getting enough work to open the doors each day.” Ron retired about 15 years ago at age 70. He’s now 85 but still visits twice a week to keep an eye on the business he built – and dedicated 56 years of his life to.
“The boys are all developing new ideas. It keeps improving,” he said. “It’s a battle. Running a small business is very, very hard. “We’ve had some tough years.” During the late ‘80s staff worked a four-day week to keep everyone in a job. “There’s been many times when it got to 12 o’clock Friday and I’d think ‘hmm we need some work for next week’,” Ron said. “We didn’t have anything. “Then somebody walks in the door and orders a tipping body at
half past two, and saves the bacon,” he said. Over its 50 years the company has employed close to 300 staff plus work experience students, and has 41 staff today. Laurie ‘Macca’ McCoy is proudly among them. He started his apprenticeship with the company at age 15. He’s still there 40 years later and couldn’t be happier. “I’m production manager here now and I have been for 20 years. I love hands-on and I still get hands-on,” he said. Macca applied for a job at Norden on advice from a friend who was working there. He met with Ron and Walter. “In those days you brought your parents with you and had an interview,” he said. “I was lucky enough to get the job.” Many of his colleagues have worked alongside him for more than 20 years. Macca’s son Kane, 20, has worked on the factory floor for just over a year. “As long as you can smile and have a laugh and you’ve got good people you work with, I think it’s a big part of it,” he said. “You spend more time at your job than you do at home with your
family, over your working life.” Macca said many people who encountered hard times threw their hands up in the air. “Ron hasn’t done that,” he said. Norden Body Works was a nominee for the CSR and Employment, Manufacturing, Small Business and Premier Regional Business awards. It was a finalist in the CSR and Employment, Manufacturing and Premier Regional Business categories.

2014 Family values shine through A PRESENTATION OF THE GREATER DANDENONG CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
John and Chau in the warehouse with CEO Serge Oppedisano. 135225 employees worldwide. The Australian arm started in Dingley in 1982 and now employs about 550 people across the country and is in the top 15 of the 400-plus Wurth companies
throughout the world - ahead of the US operation. “Family values shine through in everything they do whether the task is big or small,” awards chairman James Sturgess said.
Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS “The family orientation and values are well and truly alive through Serge’s leadership in Australia.” More than 15 per cent of the Australian Wurth workforce has
more than 10 years’ service. The company provides three award presentation events across Australia each year and has a family Christmas party every second year. Wurth Australia proudly supports Swinburne University with research funds and from time to time funds projects with Standards Australia. The company supports different charity organisations through monthly staff events, provides flu shots, meditation and massages for workers, and assists with corporate health insurance through Bupa. The business has a monthly newsletter for staff and their families called Wurth Reading. It’s provided sales consultants with iPads so they can identify stock levels, pricing, invoicing, product demonstrations and customer analysis on the spot with customers. Mr Sturgess said Wurth had established a world class training academy in Dandenong South to train staff and customers in its products and services, and lived by its statement “safety is by choice and not by chance”. Wurth was nominated for the CSR and Employment, Retail and Commercial and Premier Regional Business awards. It was a finalist in the Retail and Commercial and Premier Regional Business categories.

SERGE Oppedisano was once a Wurth customer, self-employed in the service station industry. He so admired the assembly and fastening materials supplier that he contacted the company and asked for a job with a hand-written resume. “I told a few fibs on that resume,” he said. “I started as a sales consultant.” That was 15 years ago. He rose through the ranks to become Australian CEO and Australia and New Zealand managing director and said he wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. “For me, work is like a big playground,” Mr Oppedisano said. He said the Dandenong South workplace was special. “We have many goosebumps moments at work,” he said. “I always try to look through other people’s eyes and make decisions based on that.” The multinational organisation’s headquarters and origins are in post-World War II Germany. A 19-year-old Reinhold Wurth in 1954 took over the family business of wholesaling screws, nuts and bolts from his father and started to grow the business internationally and through acquisition. Reinhold’s daughter Bettina today leads the organisation, which has more than 60,000

Up front can-do attitude FUTURE Metals Recycling started in Shepparton in 2005 when two businessmen with no experience in the industry – Tom Garrett and Stuart Miller – purchased Fletcher Metals. In 2008, with Tyrone Landsman, they established a purpose-built facility in Ordish Road, Dandenong South, and bought National Metals in Hallam. They consolidated the three sites under the Future Metals Recycling name in 2010 and Mr Garrett and Mr Landsman are now the company’s owners and directors. Mr Landsman, the managing director, attributed the company’s growth to three key areas – culture, strategy and service. He hires staff with a can-do attitude and empowers them to make decisions. “We treat everyone in our business as a family member,” he said. “We will continue to ensure we spend a lot of time up front
recruiting the people that share our philosophies.” Awards chairman James Sturgess said a company’s culture could often wane as more staff came on board. “However, through employing the right people with a can-do attitude, the culture can also be enhanced and developed,” he said. “This is what Tyrone and Tom have been able to achieve at Future Metals Recycling. “Numerous employees have followed Tyrone from his previous employment and those people wanting to join have been welcomed provided that they share the same culture.” A long-term strategy geared toward a sustainable future for the business guides every decision at Future Metals Recycling. It’s stuck strictly to ferrous and non-ferrous metals – not straying into plastics or paper – and has positioned itself in the market above the backyard operators
but below the major players. Future Metals Recycling has invested in a baling machine to help with its export opportunities and selected key opportunities to grow through major project work, including with Yallourn Power Station SP AusNet. The business retained the small Hallam site to enable easy, quick access for small, one-off customers such as tradesmen, and adjusts its prices each month using the commodities index. “They have also created their website to enable customers to get quotes online and for their larger clients, they have a client login to give further access to the administration of their accounts,” Mr Sturgess said. Future Metals Recycling was nominated for the CSR and Employment, Retail and Commercial, and Premier Regional Business awards. It was a finalist in the CSR and Employment and Small Business categories.

Young faces of the future CHISHOLM in Dandenong is fostering future leaders. Alongside winner Alex Woller, Danielle Erickson, Oun Chao and David Mann were nominated for the 2014 Youth Enterprise award. Danielle, 18, from Frankston, started a diploma of specialist make-up in 2013 and plans to make the most of her course, work hard and save money to explore her craft overseas. She’s always been creative and gets a thrill from “transforming someone into something that they love”. Danielle wants to work in film and television and one day establish her own make-up brand. “I could one day be the face of the make-up industry. I am the future of the make-up industry in Australia,” she said. Oun, from Woori Yallock, has lofty goals for his career in the electrical industry. “I want to be the go-to guy for solar,” he said. The 23-year-old comes from a hard-working Cambodian family and between his studies helps at their business – the Woori Yallock Bakery. He’s studying a certificate three in electrotechnology and has his sights set on a certificate two in telecommunications, certificate three in electrical contracting and a certificate four in photovoltaic (PV) solar generation. Oun said he regularly read
David Mann. 135867 articles about solar electricity. “That’s the next step in our technology,” he said. “They’re building solar everything.” His interest in electricity came from his foam plane hobby - he understood the physics of flight and wanted to understand electricity in the same way. His goal is to become an electrical contractor, run his own business and pass his skills onto an apprentice.

“I love working with my hands and don’t mind getting dirty but I also enjoy having to think and solve problems,” David said. “I plan on going over to the mines in Western Australia because I want to work on the biggest and the best machinery out there.” David sees earthmoving growing into one of the biggest industries in Australia. “There are always more holes to be dug and earth to be moved,” he said.

2014 Alex is welded to his career A PRESENTATION OF THE GREATER DANDENONG CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
ALEX Woller is a leader in the making. Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce recognised the 20-year-old’s drive with the 2014 Youth Enterprise Award. Actco Pickering Metal Industries CEO Jill Walsh said Alex was in the third year of his apprenticeship with the company which supplies the rail, defence and aerospace industries. “We need highly-skilled tradespeople,” she said. Ms Walsh said Alex was extremely focused and passionate with a skill level far beyond his years, and that he had a natural ability to digest complicated information about fabrication. “Let’s hope we’re looking at the next CEO of Actco Pickering,” she said. “Alex’s problem solving skills are excellent. “He will give it his best shot before he asks for help. This shows an advanced level of confidence and maturity.” Alex is studying for a certificate three in engineering and fabrication at Chisholm Institute in Dandenong to become a qualified welder and boilermaker. He also holds a certificate two in first aid and certificate two in engineering technology and completed working safely in the construction industry training. Alex volunteered during high school, preparing food for the
project at home with his father. He said he’d always been a hands-on person. “It’s one of the things I love to do. “I enjoy it every day and can see myself doing it for the rest of my life,” he said. Alex said welding was popular work. “The younger generation seems to be getting more into it,” he said. “The possibilities are endless. “It’s going to be an integral part of manufacturing in Australia.” He wants to achieve as many qualifications as possible to help him achieve the highest work standards. “I want to pursue a steady, secure life. I want to buy a house, a car and be secure and happy,” he said. “Good friends, good family and a good job is all I need.”

Printing’s insane dimensions OBJECTIVE 3D started four years ago with “a healthy burst of insanity”. But managing director Matt Minio’s only regret was not doing it sooner. He and technical director Darryl Wootton set up in Carrum Downs when the opportunity arose to be a Stratasys 3D printer Australian distributor. It’s now the largest distributor of the product in Australia and New Zealand and offers printing services for businesses that only print a few times a year and don’t want their own equipment. The printers can produce skateboards, dental moulds, hearing aids, race car parts and much more. Objective also has support team members throughout the east coast to provide technical assistance, repairs and service Pat clients’ sites. Mr Minio spent several years working in an organisation selling 3D printers before starting Objective, and prior to that managed nearly a dozen engineers in the automotive industry. The skills he picked up made the transition to owning his own business easy. Mr Wootton manages the company’s production and servicing. They have combined their design, sales, service and
technical skills to grow Objective from two to 15 employees and expect 30 per cent growth year on year for the next three to five years. Industries in Objective 3D’s sights include mechanical engineering and manufacturing, architecture, consumer electronics, dental, education, medical and health care,
animation and entertainment. “There’s a hell of a lot of hype,” Mr Minio said. The printing technique can reduce a product’s weight while maintaining strength using honeycomb design. “When orders and sales are now made to Singapore it is pretty obvious that Objective 3D Printing is doing lots right,”
awards chairman James Sturgess said. Objective 3D was nominated for the Manufacturing, Retail and Commercial, Small Business and Premier Regional Business awards. It was a finalist in the Manufacturing, Retail and Commercial, and Small Business categories.

A PRESENTATION OF THE GREATER DANDENONG CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Hall calls out for the best JILL Walsh and Tom Hartley are now in the company of Greater Dandenong’s business best. Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce inducted the duo into its Hall of Fame at its annual gala dinner on 18 March. They joined Jayco founder Gerry Ryan, bus guru Ken Grenda, industry supporter Sandra George and late entrepreneur Ron Rado. “That’s the ilk in which they’re being held,” awards chairman James Sturgess said. Ms Walsh is the general manager of ARM Group Australia and a partner with Actco Pickering Metal Industries. She’s an accountant by profession, a proud supporter of manufacturing and has spent more than a decade lobbying governments to mandate local content in their purchasing contracts. “Those who know me know I’m not often lost for words but I’m totally stunned,” she said. “I’m sorry to add to the burden of the awards but this is a special moment in my life.” Ms Walsh said the Hall of Fame members encapsulated and celebrated the spectrum of people who are contributing to Greater Dandenong business. “I feel quite tearfully humbled,” she said. She has served on government committees, is on the Committee for Dandenong and ran for City of Greater Dandenong as an
Tom Hartley. 121102 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS independent candidate in the 2012 local government elections. Most recently, Ms Walsh has been a vocal proponent for the Port of Hastings development, which would bring “jobs and more jobs” to the region. “One of the really notable things that she’s done was there was a breakfast meeting back in the mid to late ’90s and (Premier Jeff) Kennett might have just been thrown out and there was going to be no local content in trains,” Mr Sturgess said. “She stood up and spoke really well, trying to get people to recognise local content in trains as an issue.
Jill Walsh. “Warrick Heine, then-CEO of the City of Greater Dandenong, really jumped on board. “They sent hundreds of faxes on the hour to all of the MPs and ran a really passionate campaign and actually got it changed. “I reckon that’s 10s of millions of dollars worth of work her various local content campaigns over the years have delivered to this region. “She’s been a fantastic supporter of manufacturing.” Mr Sturgess said Ms Walsh and Actco Pickering had also been involved in various community events and fund-raisers.
“They’re the reasons we’re going to make her a Hall of Fame inductee,” he said. Mr Hartley moved to Australia from the UK in 1956 as a thirdyear apprentice toolmaker. He started Hilton Manufacturing in a shed in 1976 after he was twice retrenched. Today Hilton employs about 250 people and five years ago established a factory in Queensland. “They do all the hard work. We just take the plaudits,” Mr Hartley said. He has handed over the reins to son Todd but still visits the
factory each weekday, and his wife Margo works there most days. Their other son, Mark, is a filmmaker. “Along with Margo, they set the pace. I just follow on,” Mr Hartley said. He also has two young granddaughters. “One day they’ll take over the business and be better than Todd,” he said. Mr Hartley last year joined the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Honour Roll, a nod reserved for individuals or organisations that have made an outstanding contribution to manufacturing excellence in Victoria. His Dandenong South company earned Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame induction in 2008. Mr Sturgess said Mr Hartley had been “a complete and utter gentleman for decades” and that the honour also recognised the work he and Margo did for the community through Scouts, St James’ Anglican Church, Mercy Ships and more. “One of the great things from a business point of view is his trust in people - trust and loyalty,” Mr Sturgess said. “He actually – on a personal level but also from a mentoring point of view – he lets people go out and try to do it their way and gives them enough room to stuff it up. “It’s phenomenal how many people at his workplace trust him and worship him.”

The business was finalist in the Dandenong Retail Traders Association (DRTA) awards in 2012 and was its Dandenong Retailer of the Year in 2013. It’s also featured in several print and television publications. Polish Rye Crust Bakery was nominated for the CSR and Employment, Retail and Commercial, Small Business and Premier Regional Business awards. It was a finalist in the Retail and Commercial and Small Business categories.
FOSTER Street Clinic has been keeping needles off Dandenong streets for more than 20 years. It exchanges about 40,000 each month to limit needle sharing, re-use and incorrect disposal – particularly in public places – to reduce the risk of diseases such as HIV/AIDs and hepatitis. Awards chairman James Sturgess said the clinic had a three-step process that started with the needle exchange. “The second step in the process is at the time of exchange to engage and discuss with needle users and have a form of engagement that can lead to assisting the person,” he said. “Step three then actually involves the assistance itself. “The assistance can come in many forms including education, treatment, counselling, assistance, programs, workshops, pathways and connections. “The drugs that are commonly associated with injections are clearly
addictive and so the battle to stop using... is one that invariably involves assistance.” Mr Sturgess said many people attending the clinic weren’t stereotypical drug addicts, but steroid users, tradies, young and old, and office workers. Manager Debra Alexander has nine team members that include nurses, administrative staff and mobile overdose and drug and safety responders. Nurses are on hand in a primary healthcare clinic that can help with wound healing and other medical issues. Staff also run new program The Breakfast Club, which is about more than just food. “Individuals are able to discuss and consider their problems, be introduced to the primary health care clinic and avail themselves of the other assistance within the Foster Street Clinic such as counselling and workshops,” Mr Sturgess said. Foster Street Clinic was a nominee for the CSR and Employment, Small Business and Premier Regional Business awards.

POLISH Rye Crust Bakery owner Andrew Lipiszko was studying electrical engineering at Monash University when he discovered his love for baking. “Electricity kills and bread doesn’t,” he joked. He started baking as a night job he could fit around his studies. “I fell in love with the trade,” he said. “I still graduated with honours.” Mr Lipiszko and wife Hanna opened their own business on Foster Street, between two Polish butchers, in September 2009, when Dandenong’s revitalisation was just getting underway. They initially concentrated on bread but soon added coffee, sandwiches, wholesale orders, sweets, deli products and a catering service. The menu is a collusion of the Polish couple’s regional influences – Mr Lipiszko from near the Russian border, Mrs Lipiszko from a former Germanic district. It includes more than 50 Europeanstyle breads, cakes, pretzels, borscht, sauerkraut, goulash soups and Russian and German-style meats. Mr Lipiszko cares for and uses a live 100-year-old sourdough starter, monitoring PH levels to avoid a strong aftertaste. “It takes a lot of care to keep it alive so it doesn’t get mouldy,” he said. “It’s alive. You use it, then you feed it. It regenerates.” It was put to sleep in a since-closed bakery in the Polish city of Bialystok. Mr Lipiszko woke it up and uses it in Polish, Russian and German-influenced breads. “It took one and a half months to make it alive again,” he said. Polish Rye Crust Bakery’s bread is

Growth is forged in fire EXOVA Warringtonfire achieved almost 20 per cent growth last year and has a $9 million-plus turnover. Behind the Dandenong company’s growth is a $1.7 million investment in a furnace that simulates intense bushfire heat, and dedication to service excellence and developing staff. Paul England and Peter Downer started the business in the early 1990s. Mr England had been involved with Wormald for many years in the UK and Australia and decided to go out on his own. Exova Warringtonfire advises and consults on materials and products, and tests and certifies fire doors, windows, road tunnel lining and more to strict Australian and international standards. It’s has gone through several ownership changes in the past 10 years, including Mr England leaving the business and in the past year becoming part of international operation Exova, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange.
The company prides itself on being able to quote within 24 hours, test within three weeks and report within a month on nearly all of its projects. It has long adopted the approach of hiring graduates and two to three years later sponsoring postgraduate study in areas specific to industry and client needs. This is coupled with Exova Warringtonfire’s philosophy of promoting within. The Australian operations are part of the Asia Pacific region so the company is part of projects at the new Changi Airport Terminal and jobs in Crete, Doha and Mexico. Employees within the Australian company regularly get to travel the world. Exova Warringtonfire was a nominee for the CSR and Employment, Retail and Commercial, and Premier Regional Business awards.
Stress free is the test KEYSBOROUGH tech company Advanced Technology Testing and Research is earning an international name for innovation while making a healthy investment in its workforce. ATTAR has developed a world-first method to stress test heavy train wheels and found a novel way of keeping the stress levels of its 20 employees in check. The business offers $600 after tax to all employees to spend on their own health and well-being. Managing director David Lake said workers couldn’t spend it on their families but had to treat themselves to bikes,
massages, yoga, training shoes and anything else that was good for their health. He said: “People are the most important part of the company – we have to look at their health and wellbeing.” Employees have been invited to buy shares in the company Dr Gary Martin and Don McConville founded in 1986 – a shrewd move given its 30 per cent growth in the past five years. ATTAR started out in Clayton in 1990, moved to Springvale in 1996 and set up in purpose-built offices and training facilities in Keysborough in 2001. The most recent move
followed requests from workers for more office windows. ATTAR tests tanks for corrosion, welded joins for integrity, floors for slip and more. Mr Lake said its testing technology provider wrote off its train wheel testing method, saying it “couldn’t be done”. “We were a little terrified by that,” he said. The method has been successfully used at BHP’s Port Hedland operation and is showing up deficiencies in new $60,000 wheels. ATTAR was nominated for the Manufacturing, Small Business and Premier Regional Business awards.

Laser treatment that is safe, effective and affordable! DANDENONG DERMATOLOGY CENTRE, WITH THEIR EXTENSIVE RANGE OF MEDICAL GRADE LASERS, OFFER LASER TREATMENT FOR MANY SKIN CONDITIONS AND MOST SKIN TYPES. The versatile Dual Yellow Copper Bromide laser is a safe and effective treatment for a wide range of blemishes.
Who can be treated? Almost all skin types can be successfully treated with Dual Yellow laser for a wide range of blemishes, including vascular (red veins) and other lesions
Can all areas of the body be treated? Most areas including face, neck, chest, back, hands, arms and legs
How many treatments do I need? Most vascular (red veins) and pigmented (dark spots) need approximately 3-4 treatments
Does the treatment hurt? No anaesthetic is necessary and is well tolerated by most patients, with the sensation being described as a warm pinprick on the skin
Is the treatment safe? The Dual Yellow laser is operated by our experienced nurse/laser practitioner and is completely safe, targeting only the blemish
How soon will I see results? Mostly the results are immediate with the vascular lesions but some other lesions may take a week or so to improve
What conditions can be treated? Age spots on hands: Treatment to the backs of hands is very effective and removes unsightly sun damage or “age” spots. Freckles: Most common pigmented lesions are “freckles” caused by too much sun exposure. Sun damage: The yellow light helps generate new collagen, the essential protein for giving skin elasticity, so your skin will appear refreshed and its texture improved Skin tags: Skin tags and other benign raised lesions can be smoothed and flattened without damage to the surrounding skin Pigmentation/Melasma: This darkened skin discolouration typically appears on the sun exposed areas such as cheeks, forehead and nose. Treatment is effective and lighten the discolouration of the skin
Vascular lesions/Blood vessels: Broken capillaries or vascular lesions occur when the small capillaries become dilated; the laser shrinks the capillaries, providing instant cosmetic improvement.
WHAT’S NEW: The Ellipse is the latest generation IPL (intense pulse light). We can treat a variety of conditions safely: Rosacea: A common skin condition that causes red pimples, flushing and broken capillaries (telangiectasia) affecting mainly the cheeks and nose of adults. This irritating condition, often causing uncomfortable face flushing and can be safely treated with almost no down time and requiring approx 1-4 treatments at one month apart. The Ellipse laser can treat several skin types. Sun damage: Skin aging is accelerated by sun exposure. For the removal of age spots, uneven pigmentation and diffuse redness, the Ellipse laser is the latest technology available. Ellipse treatment of sun damaged skin help you keep a younger and fresher look with a full-face treatment taking less than 20 minutes. Again, most skin types can be treated. Acne: A common skin disease of teenagers, often affecting the face, neck, chest, shoulders and back, associated with overproduction of sebum (oily substance). Ellipse treatment is effective by slowing down the production of the sebum, with a typical course of therapy being four treatments at three weeks apart. Vascular lesions: These lesions can include port wine stains, broken capillaries, diffuse redness, haemangiomas and cherry angiomas. They can occur in many sizes and shapes and can be found all over the body. Most skin types are easily treated with the Ellipse being set at the correct energy output for your individual complexion.
All treatments are tailored to the individual and are safe, effective and affordable! Dandenong Dermatology Centre offers your first assessment consultation for free! To arrange an appointment just call 9791 3455.

A 14-YEAR-OLD Cranbourne boy has been charged with arson and a 15-year-old from Endeavour Hills arrested in relation to the fire which ripped through the abandoned Endeavour Hills Secondary College gym last year. The Cranbourne boy, who was arrested in January, appeared in court last week and was bailed to appear again in May. The Endeavour Hills boy was released without charge. A person was seen fleeing the fire around 11.30pm on Thursday 20 November at the former high school building, which the City of Casey has a partial stake in. Fourteen trucks attended the blaze, which took at least an hour to bring under control and a further three hours to extinguish completely. The charges come as Casey council resolved on Tuesday to write to the State Government in a plea for help to stop rampant vandalism at the derelict school site. Four Oaks councillor Rafal Kaplon moved a motion on Tuesday night for the City of Casey to write to Education Minister James Merlino expressing its concerns about
vandalism at the disused facility. Cr Kaplon said he had recently visited the school and was shocked by the extreme vandalism and dumped rubbish at the site. “Every part of the building is accessible and has been vandalised,” he said. “This is not acceptable. “It’s grounds for vigilantes and squatters.” As part of the motion the council will write to Casey police Inspector Paul Breen about its concerns, and Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan and Holt MP Anthony Byrne will also be drawn on for support. “It’s now an eyesore and has to be addressed,” Cr Kaplon said. His fellow Four Oaks councillor Rosalie Crestani said the vandalism may already equate to “thousands, if not millions of dollars’ worth of damage.” Low enrolments led to the closure of Endeavour Hills Secondary College in 2012, one of the smallest and oldest high schools in the region. In July Labor pledged to provide Hallam Senior College’s Sports Academy with partial access to the old campus if it won the state election.

Flight risk clipped A “LIAR and fraudster” was declared an unacceptable flight risk after being hastily married on a five-month trip to Turkey while on a Victorian-based community-corrections order. Tugce Hattice Caglayancay, 20, of Endeavour Hills, interjected from the dock as her bail application was rejected in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday. She had been arrested last Sunday week for allegedly committing offences while on bail - including an alleged assault of a taxi-driver last year. Caglayancay’s lawyer said the applicant had decided to fly to Turkey soon after a mental-health hospital admission last year. The applicant’s risk of flight could be eased by surrendering her
passport, the lawyer said. “It was her decision to go (to Turkey). Her parents didn’t think it was the best decision but supported her and paid for her to go there.” Magistrate Jack Vandersteen asked why the parents were not aware Caglayancay was on a community corrections order that barred her from leaving Victoria. “They were not aware she had outstanding court matters,” the lawyer replied. The lawyer told the court Caglayancay regarded her “hastily entered” marriage as a mistake; her husband wasn’t coming to Australia and she wasn’t intending to return to Turkey. “That’s not what she said to me on Monday,” Mr Vandersteen said referring to an earlier bail hearing. “Your client is a liar and a fraud-
ster.” Senior Constable Craig Chapman of Casey CIU told the court that Caglayancay had told police she wanted to see her Turkish-based husband again, having just recently returned from the overseas trip. Caglayancay’s lawyer said her client only appeared twice as an adult in court for dishonesty offences. “She is not so entrenched in criminal offending... that she doesn’t deserve a second chance.” Her daily use of synthetic cannabis had been previously “unnoticed” because she didn’t think it was problematic. Her long-term mental health issues first surfaced for psychiatric services when she was eight, the court was told. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen noted that Caglayancay had failed
to comply with a community corrections order handed down in November for “multiple state-fraud matters”. The order was to perform unpaid work as well as undergo substance, gambling and mental health treatment. “She recently left Australia and went to Turkey. Clearly the accused knew she was restrained to the state.” He also referred to Caglayancay’s 39 fraud offences committed from 2012 to 2014 as well as a string of speeding and driving-whilesuspended offences and a previous breach of a community corrections order. Caglayancay was remanded in custody to appear in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last Friday on seven theft, assault and deception offences.
Crash lessons were learned from courage
A MAN charged over allegedly ram-raiding five milkbars on 5 February has been partially successful in relaxing a bail condition that barred him from driving. Jeremy Newell, 18, applied for the ban to be lifted so he could take part in youth justice programs - a move unopposed by police prosecutors in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen, in varying the condition, said: “He’s not to take this as an opportunity to drive when he likes. “He is not to drive a motor vehicle unless agreed to by Youth Justice.” Newell was facing 13 charges allegedly arising on 5 February - including five counts each of burglary and criminal damage at Noble Park North, Keysborough, Dandenong, Doveton and Hallam stores. He was also charged with one count of theft of a motor vehicle at Dandenong and two counts of theft at Dandenong and Keysborough. The accused also faced charges of being equipped to steal and of handling, receiving or disposing of stolen goods - both allegedly arising in Dandenong on 8 February. The case was adjourned until 17 April.
Girl survives train fall A 16-YEAR-OLD girl has miraculously survived after falling on the railway tracks at Hallam station just before a train hurtled over the top of her. It’s understood the Narre Warren teenager has since told police she tripped and fell while trying to cross the railway line. The driver of the city bound train on Friday 13 March is believed to have spotted the girl curled up in a ball on the tracks just before he hit the brakes, but the train still passed over the girl. The girl is not believed to have been injured. Witnesses then drove the girl home where she was later interviewed by police.
By LACHLAN MOORHEAD ANTONIO Vecchio spoke to the Hallam Senior College students about the meaning of courage and resilience. The Dandenong quadriplegic visited the school earlier this month to speak about the car crash that changed his life, and how he adjusted afterwards. Antonio, now in his late twenties, was 19 when he lost control of his car while driving to work in wet conditions and suffered a significant spinal cord injury (SCI) as a result. “I was revived five times in hospital within the first month, so to be alive is something that you are very grateful for,” Antonio told the students. “I survived and I live with the permanent consequences.” Visiting Hallam Senior College as part of the SpinChat program, Antonio reflected on the car accident and aimed to highlight to the students the dangers of careless behaviour “The opportunity to share my personal experiences of SCI with students is a valuable one and I hope my story can have a positive influence on other young people,” Antonio said. Research has indicated that young adults, aged between 15 and 24 years old, are at the greatest risk of receiving a spinal cord injury. SpinChat aims to raise awareness, promote prevention and educate secondary students about spinal cord injury. The program is an initiative of Independence Australia and runs in partnership with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC). Independence Australia is a not-for-profit organisation that supports people with a disability.

Russian dumplings From Granny’s with love By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS IT DIDN'T take long for restaurants to start pleading for a certain Russian “granny’s” homemade dumplings. Soon after moving from north-east Russia two years ago, Nina Kuzovova’s heartily-filled pelmeni and vareniki became a treat sought after by family and friends. Within months, a Russian restaurant harangued her for the delicacies, and further diners and delis joined the queue. She and daughter Tatiana’s business From Granny’s moved into a council-provided kitchen in Bentleigh but soon its nationally distributed morsels outgrew it. “Mum received more calls from other shops and then it got so big,” Tatiana said.
EAT LOCAL, DINE GLOBAL “It was hard to fit it all in the freezer in that little kitchen.” Out of necessity, they moved their assembly line into an unsigned factory in Dandenong South in December. Inside, the starkly white, airlocked kitchen - cooled down for the moulding of dumpling shells - is at odds with the nondescript factory estate. Usually just two or three workers - including mother and daughter - are mixing fillings, loading up the $70,000 Japanese dumpling machine, refining the shells by hand and packaging them. Tatiana, who has chucked
in her real-estate job to hop on board, said the ingredients were simple, traditional and generous. They include locally-sourced chicken, beef, lamb and pork, and cottage cheese - as well as strawberry and apple for a dessert dumpling. “The Russian dumplings have to be full, the dough has to be soft and dry,” Tatiana said. She plans to introduce some Mediterranean and Arabic spiced fillings. There seems no point in marketing this burgeoning word-ofmouth business - that seemed to grow from a life of its own. “It started as a hobby,” Tatiana said. “And now it’s become a business.” To contact From Granny’s, call 0400 963 051.

The ’super-school’ meth-
od used by principal Martin Culkin to merge three secondary colleges and 2100 students with 66 language groups will be the subject of a book. Author Greg Flattley, an educational consultant, told a Spheres of Influence forum of teachers last week he was inspired by Mr Culkin’s feats since the 2006 merger. “It’s my missionary purpose to make the model well known to the world,“ Mr Flattley said. - Compiled by Dandenong and District Historical Society

Victims turned away FAMILY violence victims and other vulnerable clients are being turned away from budget-savaged community legal centres in Greater Dandenong. Springvale-Monash Legal Service and Casey-Cardinia Community Legal Service are reporting growing demand but are facing a second consecutive wave of federal cuts. As part of $3 million in federal savings, each of the free services already had $200,000 withdrawn over two years. Kristen Wallwork, executive director of SMLS, said volunteers increasingly propped up its services for 400 clients a month - including those on welfare payments, disabled and of non-English speaking backgrounds. “Our capacity is absolutely at capacity,” Ms Wallwork said. “Our job is to meet demand by using our fantastic volunteer base. It is not fair on them that they do a lot of work and are not paid. “It is also hard work for us to supervise and not necessarily as effective.” Recently, the service had the “awful” task of dropping its service for “unaccompanied humanitarian minors” and a migration lawyer and a migration agent were made redundant. “We often turn away people with family law matters - who identify as experiencing violence - and are not able to access other legal services,” Ms Wallwork said. “We have waiting lists for employment law services.” Vera Hardiman, prinicipal solicitor at the Dandenong-based CaseyCardinia Community Legal Service,
Kristen Wallwork worries about further cuts to community legal Picture: ROB CAREW services. 136353 said its Narre Warren office was set to close in June despite a growing list of Casey clients. “It’s devastating. People are already ringing up and we are saying we can’t help you,” she said. “They’re going ballistic. They are at the end of their tether - a lot of people are at the point of suicide.” Its financial counselling, which helped 271 clients with hardship issues such as bankruptcy, debt and motor vehicle accidents, has recently closed due to the cuts.
A solicitor and three financial counsellors were made redundant last month - despite a 32 per cent increase in demand for financial counselling in the past five years. Michael Smith, who chairs the National Association of Community Legal Centres, said the sector was fighting further federal cuts that could rip out 20 per cent of funding. Many of the community legal centres’ clients are those who miss out on help from Victoria Legal Aid - which has had $3.5 million withdrawn by the Federal Government.
VLA last week stated the cuts compounded a “significant unmet legal need” in south-east Melbourne. The service had already significantly restricted its eligibility criteria in 2013 due to lack of funds. As a consequence, the Dandenong-based service helped 2000 less people with face-to-face legal advice and representation in 2013’14 than two years earlier. “Additional funding (is) needed to enable us to relax our means test, which is the most stringent in Australia,” a VLA spokeswoman said. Isaacs MP and Federal Shadow Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus, when in government two years ago, boosted funding for free legal services. “It is a tragedy when victims of family violence seek assistance and are told that they can’t be helped because of government cuts. “More and more people are slipping through the cracks.” State Attorney-General Martin Pakula this month joint-signed a letter with other state and territory attorneys-general pleading for no further funding cuts. The State Government had meanwhile allocated an extra $2 million for community legal centres and $1.2 million for more familyviolence duty lawyers for victims at magistrates’ courts. A Productivity Commission report in December recommended an extra $200 million for legal assistance services in Australia - which would make 400,000 more people eligible for help. An Attorney-General Department spokesman failed to respond to the Journal’s inquiries last week. - with ANEEKA SIMONIS

Relay shows its power to move HOPE - it’s more than just a word. More than 4000 people took part in the Casey Relay for Life - over 24 hours from Friday night to Saturday, 13-14 March - and each of them had those four letters in mind. The participants had all been touched by cancer in some way, directly and indirectly, and they all hope for a cure and for peace. The relay committee is also hopeful this year’s financial return will rival recent event figures after thousands of people descended on Akoonah Park over the two days. The Berwick relay’s Marisa Adams said that with 111 teams taking part and
4020 individual participants, this year’s event had raised a tick over $300,000 so far for the Cancer Council. “We raised $462,000 last year, I would not be surprised if we get near that figure again,“ she said. “We still count for another four weeks.“ A very moving candelight ceremony on Friday evening allowed attendees to remember those lost and celebrate those still here, while a number of colourful characters walked laps and provided entertainment throughout the weekend. News photographers STEWART CHAMBERS and ROB CAREW were at the relay to capture all the action.

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE number of reported family violence incidents in the City of Casey continues to rise, according to a Crime Statistics Agency report released last week. In 2014 there were 3840 family incidents reported to Casey police, up from 3561 the previous year. State-wide, the number of reported family incidents rose by 8.2 per cent. But Casey police’s local area commander Inspector Paul Breen said the size of the municipality had to be taken into account when considering the rise of reported family violence incidents in the region. “The population is increasing nearly by 10,000 people per year in Casey and we’re trying to keep up as best we can,” Insp Breen said. “Plus, police protocol around reporting family violence is very quick now. Over
the years we’ve improved the processing. “In the next 12 months we’ll try to stabilise those figures.” In the same period the number of motor vehicle thefts in Casey per 100,000 residents increased from 215.5 to 248.5. “The big thing for Casey is the number of thefts from motor vehicles; it’s a stat that continually hurts the municipality,” Insp Breen said. “We’ve had a slow reduction in the last four to five weeks compared to the start of the year, and we have a couple of programs running, but residential burgs have also started to rise again. “The big thing is that over a half of theft from motor cars is cars left unlocked. The community needs to step up here and help police their community.” The new statistics also indicate a 12.2 per cent rise in the total number of reported of-
fences in Casey, from 15,460 in 2013 to 17,349 in 2014. Meanwhile in the same period the offence rate per 100,000 population in Casey has increased from 5619.4 to 6124.1 There has also been a 3.2 per cent increase in the total amount of alleged offender incidents in Casey, from 5757 in 2013 to 5944 in 2014. “The community needs to be confident that they have a hardworking police force in Casey, and our number one core function is the protection and safety of the community,” Insp Breen said. “We work hard to try and achieve that.” The Crime Statistics Agency was introduced this year and has taken over the role previously occupied by Victoria Police, following calls for an independent body to be set up to stop the potential misuse of data by police and governments.
Council hits out at cage fighting A CITY of Casey councillor has called for a bylaw to prevent the “barbaric“ sport of case fighting coming to Casey. Councillor Amanda Stapledon said she was “horrified“ when she heard the sport could be permitted in the city. “It’s a barbaric style of fighting and you’re hurting other people,“ she said. “I was horrified when I heard it would be permitted. “It’s violence in an arena.“ However, not all fellow councillors shared her concerns.
At last week’s council meeting, two councillors tried to block Cr Stapledon’s motion preventing the sport starting up in Casey. Dissenting councillor Rosalie Crestani said “people have a right” to participate in cage fighting, pointing out that in her opinion boxing could be just as violent. “If we start shutting things like this down it will send them underground. “I don’t think we should step into this area.”
However Cr Stapledon said she didn’t want to shut down cage fighting but that her intention was to prevent it coming to the City of Casey in the first place. Cr Stapledon’s motion directed council officers to write to Ms Hutchins advising her of Casey’s opposition to cage fighting both within the municipality and Victoria. The council will also seek clarification on how to prepare a local law banning cage fighting within the municipality.

Noble Park RSL Veronique is smiling again after re-acquainting with her son, following her involvement in the Vision of Hope Picture: ROB CAREW counselling program. 121409 feel refreshed and ready to start again” Vision of Hope is a counselling program, run by staff from the Hallam Medical Group, which started in 2013 to help people whose family members or close friends are battling drug and alcohol addiction. Family counsellor Bernard D’Argent started up the program along with mental health nurse Lyndsey Coutet, psychologist Stephanie Chu and GP Ariane D’Argent. At the monthly meetings Veronique helps assure other participants that there is always light at the end of tunnel, recalling her own agony and how she grew to handle it. Now, Veronique said, friends
from school and family members are coming back to see her son to catch up. “Don’t let your hope go down because you never know,” Veronique urged others. “You never know when your loved ones will touch rock bottom and they will say to themselves ‘I don’t want this life anymore, I want to be back home, I want my family back’‘. “The only thing is to be there for them, open your arms when they come back, because that love is more important than everything.” For more information or to join Vision of Hope, contact the Hallam Medical Group on 9796 5400.

Drug Court official backing STATE Attorney-General Martin Pakula has thrown his support behind the lauded Dandenong Drug Court. Mr Pakula said he was looking forward to working with the magistrates’ court to “further develop the Victorian Drug Court model”. “We will continue to examine ways to expand the reach of court-based support and specialist programs to make their successful elements more widely available.” His comments come after
the drug court’s magistrate Tony Parsons recently repeated his call for expanding the program, which has run only in Dandenong for 13 years. “There is a massive saving to the taxpayer,” Mr Parsons said. “It’s a significantly effective program in terms of the recovery of people with entrenched drug addictions and relieves the burden of crime on the community in a very significant way.” The court uses a carrot-andstick approach - an intensive two-year regime of constant reporting to Mr Parsons, urine-
testing, rehabilitation, housing, vocational and welfare support coupled with the dangling threat of jail. Earlier this month an independent report found a drug court cohort was significantly less likely to offend than a control group of prisoners. The cost of the court’s drug treatment orders (DTOs) is $70 a day per offender, compared to $270 a day for jail prisoners. The report also found the DTO cohort had a 90 per cent reduction in trafficking offences compared to an increase for the incarcerated group.

VERONIQUE has glimpsed the light that lies at the end of the tunnel. The mother of two, a practising Catholic, hadn’t seen her previously ice-addicted son in more than half a year when he showed up at the family Christmas, vowing to start his life anew. A few months on, Veronique’s son is still walking the road to recovery and has stayed off drugs since re-acquainting with his family. “After some time he came and said to me ‘Mum I want to come back home, I don’t want this life anymore’,” Veronique, from the Hallam-based Vision of Hope support group, said. When her son left the family home, Veronique would only hear how he was going through snippets of information he passed on to her husband. “It was very hard because we don’t live like that, we always used to be together, it was the reality, you had to deal with it,” Veronique said. “That’s why Vision of Hope was really supportive in that part; you can share your feelings and focus on yourself. “Without the group it would be harder because I would not know there’s people in the same situation as me... I would not know that. And together we support each other. “Praying is my strength but talking to people and unloading and unwinding is really helpful. When you go back home you

Battle memories remain THE nephew of a British soldier killed in the Vietnam War used a Berwick News article to track down his uncle’s best mate from Australia who he fought alongside more than 40 years ago. Machine gunner Eric Halkyard was killed in February 1971 by a grenade as he lay next to his close friend Bill Rogers during a battle in the high hills of Phuoc Tuy province in South Vietnam. On the eve of Anzac Day last year Bill, 69, of Berwick, shared with the News the agony of losing his best mate. Bill was medevaced out of the battle with severed nerves in his arm and shrapnel in his back but still lived to tell the tale. In last year’s story Bill said he’d never been able to find Eric’s family. That was until he saw the story in the news. While researching his family history a few months after the News story was published, Eric’s nephew John Moores, who lives in Manchester, England, came across the article on the internet and tracked down Bill, a former president of Melbourne Legacy, through the Legacy group. Even better, he and his wife, Sheila, had already planned to travel to Melbourne and were able to meet up with Bill for one day last August. “It was a bit emotional,” Bill said. “They were only here for
that day, so we only spent probably a couple of hours together but the couple of hours seemed to be enough inasmuch as it filled a hole that was there. “And I feel now that I know them, we email, I’m not quite on the Facebook stage yet but they are so we’ve mentioned a few things, caught up a bit there. “It’s filled a hole... I’ve met someone of his family.” Over coffee Bill told John and Sheila about his memories of sharing a hooch with Eric and fighting alongside his cherished companion. “I told them how we spent our time together, the closeness that we had,” Bill said. “You share everything together. “While one’s manning the gun pit the other one’s making a brew. So you become really close, you watch out for each other. “I really spoke about how we got on together, how important he was in my life, and still is.

Bill Rogers, who fought in Vietnam, was finally able to meet the family of his fallen comrade Eric Halkyard more than 40 years after he died in battle. 135871 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS many unanswered questions. “Bill is a wonderful man and as soon as we came into reception at the Mercure Hotel I turned to John and said that’s Bill,” Sheila said. “Bill stood in the crowd, an ex-military gentleman, very smartly dressed and friendly. “Bill said he was so pleased to finally meet members of Eric’s family, and he had waited such a long time for this moment. “He went on to ask what John knew about Eric’s death and John basically said the family had been told a sniper had
shot him, which turned out to be not the case. “We learned from Bill the actual details of the events that led to Eric’s death and we were able to tell Bill details of Eric life in the UK and how he came to join the Australian Army. “I’m sure we will keep in touch with Bill.” But while last year’s meeting helped Bill get a better understanding of Eric’s past, there are some questions still unanswered - both for Bill and Eric’s family. Bill distinctly remembers Eric telling him he had a wife
and two children, but John said no-one in his family was aware of this, as far as they knew. What Bill does know is that Eric saved his life that day in South Vietnam 40 years ago. And he will never forget it. “We got on really well, it was as if we were brothers together. We had a really good relationship,” Bill said. “It was the fact that he got sliced open with a grenade, if it had of gone between us we’d have both been dead, and I would say that he... he saved me. That’s probably the best way to describe it.”

Casey to get extra avenue of honours A NEW avenue of honour has been proposed for the City of Casey as the centenary of the Gallipoli landing fast approaches. This would be the eighth avenue of honour in the City of Casey, with existing ones along High Street in Berwick, South Gippsland Highway in Cranbourne, Memorial Drive in Narre Warren North, Harkaway Road in Harkaway, Church Street in Berwick, South Gippsland Highway in Tooradin and Wilson and Scanlan Streets in Berwick. River Gum Ward councillor Wayne Smith said this would be “a great opportunity” to add another one to the City of Casey. Councillor Smith proposed the new avenue for the recently redeveloped Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road, but said it was important the entire city benefitted from the plan. “The 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing is a good chance to add another one,” he said. “We are also very proud of our existing ones.” Councillor Rafal Kaplon also suggested one for Heatherton Road. Councillor Smith, whose motion was carried, said there had already been some inquiries made to VicRoads. Council officers will now make urgent contact with the relevant sections of VicRoads to see if the council can plant suitable trees along new sections of Narre WarrenCranbourne Road. A report will come back to the council at the next meeting with the results of discussions and recommendations on how Casey can move forward with the project. The council will also write to VicRoads and ask it to explore the possibility of one along the existing Heatherton Road, as part of the Melbourne Boulevard Strategy and in recognition of the 100-year anniversary. - BRIDGET SCOTT
Blaze of colours STRIKING colourful costumes from across the globe flooded the Dandenong Civic Square last week. Springvale Neighbourhood House and City of Greater Dandenong held an international dress parade on Wednesday 18 March as part of Cultural Diversity Week. It showcased traditional and contemporary clothes from the municipality’s culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Organisers said they hoped to expand the event next year and perhaps include international cuisines. For more Harmony Day coverage turn to page 50.

THE Endeavour Hills community understands the importance of harmony. Last Friday students from Thomas Mitchell proved this when they celebrated national Harmony Day, an acknowledgement of Australia’s cultural diversity. “The purpose of Harmony Day is to strengthen our sense of belonging, respect and understanding of cultural diversity,” teacher Iris Wong said. “At Thomas Mitchell Primary School, we pride ourselves as a highly multi-cultural community and we aim to provide an internationalised perspective within our curriculum. “Our families represent 74 countries and we speak 86 different languages at home. Our staff represent 28 countries.” Thomas Mitchell also offers both Indonesian and Mandarin as additional language classes.“Harmony Day at our school is a day of cultural respect for everyone who calls Australia home - from the traditional owners of this land to those who have come from many countries around the world,” Ms Wong said. “By participating in cultural diversity activities, we can learn and understand how all Australian from diverse backgrounds belong to this nation and enrich it.” The primary school used the whole of last week to participate in activities celebrating multiculturalism, culminating in Harmony Day.

NEW HOMES & LAND
STYLISH DESIGN FOR THE DISCERNING STARTING at only $188,990 for 25.99 squares, The Bracken ticks all the must-have boxes when it comes to a smart family home. Red Bluff Homes has designed The Bracken with discerning first home buyers or retirees in mind. The spacious and modern design offers a layout that flows smoothly from the smart entrance through to the fantastic outdoor living area at the opposite end of the home. In between is a master suite complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, a theatre room, three additional bedrooms, a separate laundry, kitchen and large open plan meals/family area. Flexibility is the cornerstone of The Bracken’s thoughtful design.
The team at Red Bluff Homes knows that each family is different and that when it comes to utilising space, choice and flexibility are essential. With this in mind, The Bracken can easily be converted to a four bedroom home by utilising the spacious retreat which is adjacent to the master suite. Alternatively, the retreat can be used as a study, which is perfect for anyone running a home business, or incorporated into the master suite creating a luxurious private oasis for busy parents. The kitchen is stylish and functional with a walk-in pantry, eye-catching stone benchtops and 900mm stainless steel appliances. The kitchen looks out over the open-
plan meals/ family area to the huge covered deck at the rear. The impressive entertaining area is perfect for barbecues and parties and also provides a sheltered outdoor play space for children. Sliding doors off the family/meals area create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Carpet and tiles are standard inclusions throughout The Bracken, as is the use of low maintenance Colorbond on the roof, guttering and downpipes. To truly appreciate The Bracken visit the display at 122 Jackson Drive, Drouin. For further details contact Peter Konjevic on 0418 515 755.

Step up to our award winning Milan, * voted HIA’s Best Display Home 2014. The Milan 29 from our Aspire range has just won the 2014 HIA Victorian division Best Display Home between $250,001 – 300,000. It’s an architect designed home ofering afordable luxury, space and light and a range of innovative features. The sun court, for instance, actually increases the usable interior space and floods the living areas with light. Or as the judges said: “A very open home that gives the impression it is bigger than it actually is.
“Excellent workmanship, attention to detail and a feeling of spaciousness.” – HIA Judges
You can sense the diference immediately with generously proportioned spaces that flow together naturally to create vistas and extended views with picture windows usually only found in more expensive homes. The high level of luxury inclusions also caught the eye of the judges who said the Caesarstone benches, Franke sinks and Smeg appliances “represent value for money”. The overall style and elegance of this four bedroom home is typified by the raised ceiling above the dining area. Visit the Milan today – and judge for yourself.

That was on clear display this week when students from the Endeavour Hills high school joined in a range of activities with a group of Japanese exchange students.

Garden to grow skills By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE Endeavour Hills community young and old has helped put together a garden for a local high school. Earlier this month students from Gleneagles Secondary College could be seen working in their new community garden, which was constructed with the help of the volunteer team at the Andrews Centre. “Gleneagles Secondary College and the Andrews Centre have a long and productive history together,” assistant principal Adele Duffy said. “Families and students in our community have benefitted from a wide range of support accessed through the centre and, in return, we have provided access to facilities whenever needed. “So when Andrews Centre CEO Judy Martin approached the school to use some of our land to set up a community garden we were keen to form a partnership. “Six months later we have an active committee of volunteers, an official licensing agreement with the school council and, most importantly, the beginnings of a community garden.” Year 9 students in the Landscaping elective will be contributing to the maintenance of the garden area, as well as continuing to work on the extensive school gardens already established. Skilled retirees are also being invited to pass on gardening knowledge to Gleneagles students and others in the community. “The garden is intended to provide a space for people within the local com-
Codi and Cooper, both in Year 9, enjoyed working in the vegie garden. 134826 Picture: GARY SISSONS munity to grow their own vegetables and herbs in their own allocated garden plot,” Mrs Duffy said. “Access to the community garden is intended for those families who struggle to provide fresh vegetables for their families because of cost or lack of space to grow their own. “It will provide meaningful work to
those people struggling to get work, living alone or in isolation. “Whilst growing organic vegetables members of our community garden will have an opportunity to meet other people, be involved in productive activities, share or exchange produce and develop links with others living in their community.”

Protest set to roll into town By CASEY NEILL TRAINS, trams, buses and trucks will stop traffic in central Dandenong next month. Committee for Dandenong member Jill Walsh last week announced the Dandenong on Wheels demonstration would descend on Dandenong Civic Square on Friday 17 April. She’s invited Premier Daniel Andrews to check out the Dandenongmade vehicles, which will stay put throughout the day. “We’re going to mass these vehicles. They’re going to be shiny and big,” Ms Walsh said.
“We want to stand up and say ‘manufacturing is alive and well in Dandenong’. “We build bloody great things in Dandenong.” The advocacy group joined with South East Melbourne Manufacturers Alliance (SEMMA) and City of Greater Dandenong to organise the event. “We’ll put the train in Walker Street,” she said. “On Thomas Street, the tram will be indented in that little car space. “I think it’s time we all stood up for manufacturing in this town, stopped talking it down. “There’s so much going in Gee-
long. They’re losing half the people we are from the auto supply chain. “But nobody’s talking about Dandenong, nobody’s talking about the jobs. “I thought ‘it’s time to make a statement’. “People need to see up close and personal what we build on wheels in Dandenong.” Ms Walsh said organisers would bus in workers, Chisholm Institute students and school children. “We want the students to see also that they have a future in manufacturing and what a spectrum of jobs are available,” she said.
She’ll have signage on a VLocity diesel train to highlight its 78 per cent local content, and said it was the most reliable rail vehicle in the world. “When it’s built and designed for our conditions, that’s where the real success lies,” she said. “I wanted the governments to look at when they say best value for the taxpayers dollar, what are they really meaning?” Premier Daniel Andrews announced during last year’s election campaign that the State Government would buy 20 new VLocity carriages from Dandenong manufacturer Bombardier. “We need another order for trams,
but they’re reluctant to commit to,” Ms Walsh said. “They need to. It’s not like they’re not needed.” She linked the situation to recent debate about whether new Australian Navy submarines would be built in Australia. “We need to stand up and say ‘we’re not copping this’,” she said. “We can deliver great products. “If we need to build a submarine then we can damn well build a submarine.” “I think the people in Melbourne and Victoria need to understand that we do build things here.”
Sewing up a secure future By BRIDGET SCOTT A BUSINESS owner who found herself jobless and homeless all on the same day has turned her life around in less than two years. Fran Rourke was made redundant from her previous job, and returned home on the same day to find an eviction notice on her door. The landlord wanted to move back in, and she had no choice but to leave. “I found myself unemployed and homeless,” she said. The Cranbourne woman managed to find herself another rental property a short time after, however she wasn’t able to advertise her new business from there.
Finally, she has secured her own home, and with the help of a government program her business is now smooth sailing. After she lost her job, Ms Rourke started to receive Newstart payments but this didn’t sit easily with her. Not long after this, she discovered the NEIS program, the New Enterprise Incentive Scheme. An Australian Governmentrun program, this system helps budding business owners get the kick start they need when first entering their respective industry. “They support you for the first 12 months while you’re building your business and doing all the leg work,” she said. “They provide you with the same amount of money as what
you would get from Newstart payments.” Ms Rourke also attended Chisolm Institute where she did a small business course for three months. She now runs a successful quilting and embroidery business. She conducts classes on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays and said it’s “doing pretty good.” Ms Rourke had a small piece of advice for other small business owners of people who find themselves in a similar position. “Just get out and do it, because nobody else will do it for you,” she said. “I could’ve stayed in the hole I dug myself, but I had two girls I wanted to raise, I had to do it for myself.”

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT… AWARDS chairman James Sturgess asked beauty student and Youth Enterprise Award nominee Danielle Erickson whether there was “any chance you could make this face pretty?”. “Maybe with some prosthetics,” she quipped.
LENSCAPE
YOUTH Enterprise Award winner Alex Woller in his acceptance speech thanked Chisholm Institute, employer Actco Pickering, his colleagues and his dad “who couldn’t be more prouder”. DANDENONG City Bowls Club, which will fold at the end of March after 132 years, did not fade into the annals of history without one last win. The Dandy team beat Hampton 40-31 in the Bowls Victoria, division eight grand final at Burden Park Bowls Club on Saturday 14 March. Team spokesman Ron Jessen said most of the club’s flags, trophies, honour boards and photos would be given to the Dandenong Historical Society, with a few pieces being kept by members. Enjoying a beer after their last game were (standing) Leigh Making, Steve Flentjar, Harry Carlin, Greg Payne, Gary Stewart and Margaret McLaren. Sitting: Eugene Magee, Len Diss, Colin Haskett, Ken Bryant and Joe Chadwick. FREE parking is set to become an even rarer entity in central Dandenong. Drivers were seen examining parking machines - which accept credit cards as well as cash - popping up around Foster and Mason streets. As a reminder, don’t expect any relief at the civic centre’s free underground car park - it’s been closed indefinitely subject to a security audit. AN ENDEAVOUR Hills woman has
ventured to Turkey for five months and hastily married a local - all while supposedly serving a community corrections order in Victoria. During her bail hearing on Wednesday, a Dandenong magistrate responded pithily when the woman’s lawyer said her client - previously convicted for 39 fraud offences - had no intention of returning to her husband. “That’s not what she told me on Monday,“ the judge said. “Your client is a liar and a fraudster.“ MAYBE a new Dandenong South business doesn’t pay as much attention to detail as it likes to think. The Journal discovered a ‘perfect’ gaffe on the company’s website in a blurb about its dedication to doing things by hand. “Sometimes this is painful because we’re prefectionists (sic) and our methods aren’t commercial... ” it read. MICHAEL Pope hosted the Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce Premier Regional Business Awards last Wednesday 18 March. He was invited back after previously handling the event’s hosting duties in 2012. “It takes a long time for some people to forget,” he said.
NOMINEE Objective 3D didn’t walk away from the evening with an award - but that’s no matter, according to Mr Sturgess. “You could just make an eagle for yourself,” he said after hearing about 3D printing capabilities. WHAT’S the secret to award nominee Polish Rye Crust Bakery’s popular bread? Mr Sturgess suggested it might be the Dandenong destination’s unique 100-year-old sour dough starter. “No, it’s me!” quipped owner Andrew Lipiszko. WINNER of the night’s top prize, SRXGlobal, is supporting innovations in various fields, including medical. “I don’t even know what sleep apnoea is but you can create it or fix it?” Mr Sturgess said. TOM Hartley was visibly overawed to be inducted into the Hall of Fame at the dinner - a reaction the audience almost missed out on. “Much thanks to Todd for getting his father here tonight. “He told me on Tuesday that he wasn’t coming and that would have been a bit awkward,” Mr Sturgess said.

THE phrase “learning a new tongue” couldn’t be more apt for staff at the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre office in Dandenong. In a reversal of roles, ASRC client and asylum seeker ‘Asal’ (whose identity can’t be revealed) holds centre-stage as the teacher in the training room. Scrawling elegant Farsi lettering on the whiteboard, she prompts staff and volunteers how to speak a language totally alien to her students by sound and sight. Training co-ordinator Linda Perugini enjoys the challenge of these weekly classes, as she tries to master her mimicry of the Farsi alphabet. “Visually it’s completely
different to the English alphabet,” Ms Perugini said. “At first I think we were all ready to give up, but our teacher is doing an amazing job of breaking everything down and making it feel achievable.” Asal - who isn’t a trained teacher - has also found it difficult to lead the class and translate her language into English. Advice from teacher friends in Iran has helped. “For me I get a good satisfaction,” she said. Out of the dual struggle has come a “lovely sense of equality”, said Ms Perugini. “We have now both had a turn at being the student and the teacher. “I hope that Asal is gaining confidence through teaching
the class, and realising her potential.” Staff hope their new-found Farsi skills will help them communicate with some of their clients. Another of the fledgling students is ASRC social enterprise development manager Ash Nugent. Although he stumbles through pronouncing “lots of ‘kh’, ‘gh’ and rolled ‘r’s”, he has a new appreciation for how much his clients have to absorb when they learn English. “The clients see the staff practising their pronunciation of words and it gives them a good laugh,” he said. “It really helps them to see us in a different light, and I mean that in a very positive sense.”

A DINNER with a difference raised more than $35,000 to help adults with disabilities in Dandenong and beyond. Wallara CEO Phil HayesBrown said Dinner Under the Stars on 12 March was the organisation’s major annual fundraiser. He said the proceeds would fund special training programs like retail and money handling at the Wallara Pop Up Shop in Dandenong Plaza, hospitality at Potter Coffee, lawn and garden maintenance through Grass
Busters, and horticulture and farm management at Sages Cottage in Baxter. Humanitarian Moira Kelly, known for adopting conjoined twins Krishna and Trishna, was the guest speaker and another of her adoptive children, Emmanuel Kelly, performed. “Moira Kelly was amazing and it was great to show her our service where her highly talented son Emmanuel has been our celebrity ambassador now for more than a year,” Mr HayesBrown said.
“Emmanuel sang two songs and reminded us all why he had such a massive response and attracted such a huge social media following when he auditioned for X Factor in 2011. “But, as with every year, the real stars on the night were our service user ambassadors. “We had 14 attend this year and they did an awesome job of mixing with guests, introducing themselves and ensuring everyone had a great time.”

It all starts with service THOSE who are looking for a new or used car, and great service, should get down to the new Berwick Chrysler Jeep, Alfa Romeo and Fiat showroom. The showroom, located on Princes Highway in Hallam, is fast becoming one of Australia’s leading dealerships and according to the dealer principal Brett Field it all starts with one simple thing. “It’s service - plain and simple. “We are a customer service business where advice and assistance is paramount to making the right decision on your new car. “The same goes for every department, whether it’s our spare parts team or service technicians. “Every team member is trained in customer service and that’s what makes us different from most car dealerships,” he said. And with a new management team in place, bringing with them years of experience, the future looks very bright indeed for Berwick Chrysler Jeep, Alfa Romeo and Fiat. Used Car Manager Michael Grapsas is proud of the quality products on offer. “All of our cars have been RACV tested and we’ve recently been awarded the status of Green Light dealer.” Michael brings with him many years of experience in customer service, and proudly puts his customers first. “We take great pride in helping our

customers find the perfect vehicle to match their needs, no matter what they are after. “We’ll even help find them that perfect car if we don’t have it,” Michael said. For those who need finance, the award-winning business managers and finance team can take care of it. Repayments can be tailored to suit budget and lifestyle. With a range of lenders to negotiate with, clients can be confident they're getting a great deal. The state-of-the-art workshop offers all the latest in diagnostic equipment and tools to keep cars on the road for longer, no matter what make or model. Service manager Paul James said: “We’ve changed a lot of things over the past few months, including opening our service department on Saturdays. “Everyone is so busy these days, and this is just another way we are trying to make it easy for our customers.” So, anyone who is thinking about buying a new or used car or if they just need their car serviced, can drop in and see Brett and his award winning team at 257 Princes Highway in Hallam. Alternatively give them a call on 9554 0800. Those who are in a hurry can even organise a test drive or book a service online at berwickchryslerjeep.com.au.
