Serving sisters helped war effort As 2015 marks 100 years since Australia’s involvement in World War I, it’s important to remember the nurses of the nation who also gave so much. The team at Beechworth’s Burke Museum have uncovered some of the stories of local nurses who served with their medical skills in the Great War. READ MORE ABOUT THE EXHIBITION ON PAGE 10

Students keen to trade up By ERIN SOMERVILLE THEY’RE young, they’re keen, and they’re looking for work. Wodonga TAFE’s head carpentry teacher Rob Staley has called on builders in the region to give young and local apprentices a chance after finding employment rates for students are moving slowly in the industry. His call comes as residential developments continue to spread across Wodonga and Thurgoona’s growth corridors. “There’s nothing stopping the carpenters out there stopping in here and having a chat,� Mr Staley said. “It’s just a shame because you hear everyone is busy out there, but you don’t hear them say they’re going to take on an apprentice, comparably to other trades it seems to be very slow.� “The students are not chasing top dollar, they just want a chance.� Mr Staley said the students’ knowledge of the area and connections also could be a valuable asset. The Wodonga TAFE currently has five students completing its certificate two in carpentry, which serves as a pre-apprenticeship course. Mr Staley said the students leave the 15-week course well equipped with knowledge and skills to be capable and valued on worksites. And with just six weeks of their course left, Mr Staley has challenged local builders to come and support his students who are willing to have a go.

Forecast is for snow

JUNE is only a few short weeks away, and teams at the nearby ski fields are busy preparing to kick off another cracking season. As Border residents begin to dust off their skis and stock up on snow gear, we take a look at the conditions on the ranges and the snow season ahead. See more on page 2.

Albury Wodonga’s largest circulating newspaper

AFTER eight years of providing Border customers with great products at unbeatable prices, Lavington’s Shepparton Cannery XS has established itself as a business story in the region. Managing Director Craig English and his team are proud to help hard-working residents save at the cash register while picking up some great bargains and brands. “We try and get all the big brands that we grew up with that are disappearing off the supermarket shelves,” he said. “You’ll find Australia’s favourite and reliable brands like SPC, Ardmona, Goulburn Valley, McCain’s, San Remo, Rinoldi Pasta, Hoyt’s, Fletchers, and heaps more. They also proudly have products from right on the Border’s doorstep, whether it’s freshly pressed apple juice from Beechworth, Yackandandah jams or simmer sauces, or delicious fruits and vegetables from the local area. At Shepparton Cannery XS Lavington, you’ll also notice their huge range of mouth-watering meat products provided right on site by the skilful The Haus of Meat butchers. As the business has grown, more manufacturer are approaching Shepparton Cannery XS to assist in selling their surplus product and giving customers even more variety and choice. The majority of the product isn’t short dated, but is rather the result of excess production, change in labelling or packaging, and the emphasis from the major retailers on private label at the expense of known brands. As a result, Shepparton Cannery XS now has hundreds of reliable suppliers.

Early snow boosts skiing By ERIN SOMERVILLE

COLD temperatures felt across the Border this week are giving the upcoming ski season a strong headstart, with snow already beginning to settle in the Alps. Mount Hotham is one ski resort near the Border region that is hoping the May snowfall is a sign of bumper things to come. “It’s definitely promising,” Hotham marketing executive Alexandra Rouse said. The area has had snow falls from as early as Easter and Anzac Day, with soft snow beginning to settle on the ground from last week. And the team in the mountains aren’t the only ones who are noticing. “We already have accommodation bookings and lift passes being taken up.” Ms Rouse described this week’s conditions in the mountains as being windy and cold - the perfect recipe for cooling down the ground to make a strong foundation for the season’s snow. “The mountain is getting really cold and that’s perfect for snow to settle on the ground.” Great autumn conditions are also being enjoyed at Falls Creek, with daytime temperatures already dipping below zero this week. If current conditions continue, the ski resorts are on track for a successful season opening on 6 June.

Pool plan on the agenda By ERIN SOMERVILLE

The World War I medal handed into Picture: Wodonga police. 139305 COURTESY OF WODONGA POLICE

Police pin hopes on public to find medal’s missing owner POLICE are looking for the owner of a rare World War I medal which was handed into the Wodonga police station. The medal was found on the footpath in Reid Street, opposite the Wodonga RSL after the Anzac Day march on 25 April. A 10-year-old Wodonga boy and his mother and handed the medal in, hoping that police would be able to locate the owner. Wodonga police Leading Senior Constable Raquel Vogel said that the medal would be of great sentimental value to someone. “The person who dropped this medal may not even be aware that it is missing,” she said. “It is sad to think that the memories associated with this medal may be lost forever.” Anyone who may be able to assist police in returning the medal to its rightful owner is urged to contact Wodonga police on 02 6049 2600. The back of the World War I medal found after the Anzac Day march. 139305

A YEAR-round aquatic facility could be a recommendation put before the council following extensive public consultation to develop the AlburyCity Aquatic Strategy. AlburyCity has recruited the help of SGL Consulting Group to begin consultations this week with pool users, including sports groups and Fish Out of Water who have run an extensive campaign for a year-round FINA standard facility. The same consultant group worked on a strategy for Albury’s pool around eight years ago, and expects to take around 14 weeks to complete this year’s study. Past recommendations the company put forward included a new facility at the Lauren Jackson Sports Centre, and other options including retro-fitting and redevelopment. All options proved too costly for the council at the time. Albury mayor Kevin Mack has suggested that this round of recommendations could prove differently. “We are more prone to considering future projects than we ever have been,” he said. “This is one thing that has been tossed around a little bit but not enough, so we’ll get some firm ideas from SGL, and looking at the past reports it would appear the recommendations to move forward is to try and consider Albury 2030 and what that looks like. “Nothing is off the agenda but I think it’s important to understand we only need five councillors to vote for an indoor aquatic centre so we’ll see what happens.” SGL director Michael King said his company would be taking a number of factors into consideration as part of a three-phase assessment on the viability of Albury’s current

Albury mayor Kevin Mack with SGL Consulting Group director Michael King will begin looking into Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE recommendations for the future of Albury's aquatic facilities. 139295 Swim Centre. These include pool usage, performance, maintenance, and future development and growth in the area based on the average pool life span

of between 60 to 80 years. “It’s a highly valued facility and the reason we are carrying this out is to make sure they (council) get it right.”

More information on how you can have your say on the AlburyCity Aquatic Strategy will soon be available at www.alburycity.nsw.gov.au

Big grant for the arts scene

ALBURY’S arts sector is looking forward to being able to literally put their new slice of the state’s local theatre funding funding on show. Albury’s HotHouse Theatre and the Flying Fruit Fly Foundation will share in $103,290 of funds to create local productions to be enjoyed by the community. The funding has firmly put the Border’s name on the regional arts map by securing over a quarter of the $370,000 of State Government funding available for local theatre projects. The funding is vital for nurturing the Border’s arts sector and keeping locally-grown talent working and performing locally. The HotHouse Theatre will put $43,290 of its funding to partner with theatre company Sport for Jove to produce a major new Australian work ‘The Long Float’. The production will focus on Albury’s mythology, and provide professional development opportunities for the theatre’s associate director, studio program trainees, and Aboriginal artists. The project will recruit the support of a significant Australian playwright. The Flying Fruit Fly Foundation will have $60,000 to enhance their ‘Flying Solo’ pathways, that enables emerging artists to become independent and be mentored.

HotHouse Theatre General Manager Tahni Froudist, Member for Albury Greg Aplin, and Flying Fruit Fly Foundation Artistic Director Jodie Farrugia stand among the incredible acrobatics being performed in Albury. 139272 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE

The funds will allow the foundation to team up with the Sydney Opera House, AlburyCity, and Murray Arts to produce the show ‘Stunt Lounge’, allowing emerging NSW circus artists and directors the opportunity to create and perform their own original circus work that can tour regionally. Mentorship will also prove invaluable to the artists, who will learn how to build their professional careers and engage with young people, both in metropolitan and regional Australia. Flying Fruit Fly Foundation Artistic Director Jodie Farrugia said the funds were vital in nurturing the company’s young talent and keeping regional arts strong. “This is a really big step for the Flying Fruit Fly Circus, it allows us to do a project outside of our core operations,” she said. ‘We’ve been really interested to support our emerging artists graduates to help them transition into the industry, so it’s really significant for us because there is no way in our current funding we can attack projects like that.”

Day to make a difference By ERIN SOMERVILLE

FANCY a day off from work for a good cause without using your annual leave or sick days? That’s the concept behind the locally launched initiative Big Day Off that aims to raise funds for spinal injury research. The local project will work with charity partnerships at Spinal Cord Injuries Australia and SpinalCure Australia by raising funds through a fun initiative. The project has been inspired by Albury Tiger’s player James McQuillan, who sustained a serious spinal cord injury last April. Through months of dedicated work, the board behind the Big Day Off were proud to unveil their project this morning at the SS&A Locker Room, with hopes of it becoming a global success. The concept behind the fund-raiser is simple - raffling a day off from work for employees. The Big Day Off will see businesses sign up to the cause allowing staff to buy an entry in the draw to win a Big Day Off from their workplace. Businesses can offer as many days off as they are able to, and days off can be taken at times that suit the workplace and employee best. “It’s quite a simple, fun

idea,” Big Day Off deputy chairman Ben Hollands said. “Everyone loves a thought of a day off from the boss, so it’s the opportunity to have a free day without taking out any of your annual leave.” And it seems the businesses are happy to let their staff have a day off to do as they please. “We’ve already got some local businesses who are going to donate up to 10 days off across their staff, which is amazing.” While the initiative was only launched today in Albury, there are already visions of it taking on the world. “I think the exciting thing about this is it could go not just nationally, but be amazing to see it go internationally. “I think that’s the opportunity that we’ve got, particularly with people sharing the idea

on social media,” he said. Big Day Off chairman Jon Retford noted in his unveiling speech that the team expected it would only be a matter of time before the charity would need employed staff. Meanwhile, the inspiration behind the concept of Big Day Off 21-year-old James McQuillan, was pleased to see some positive action come from his on-field tragedy just 13 months ago. “I think it’s unbelievable, I can’t believe how much work has gone into it and I think all the blokes and girls that have supported it are going to need a day off. “That’s what we all want to do, is find a cure to get everyone up and walking again.” For more visit http://bigdayoff.org/

Blokes’ home online to make a real difference By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE blokes at Wodonga Men’s Shed Inc are putting down their tools and picking up a mouse as the organisation jumps online. The online move is an attempt for the group to double their membership and secure a precinct of their own. Currently, the 50-member strong group that has been running since 2008 leases a property on Emerald Avenue, but is hoping to secure funding to expand and have a shed to call its own. “We are in a precinct that’s not our own,” Wodonga Men’s Shed secretary Mick McInerney said. “We are looking to get one of our own and get better workshop facilities.” Mr McInerney said he hoped the website would boost membership and improve the organisation’s chances of receiving funding from all three levels of government. Meanwhile, the Men’s Shed has matched $1500 in local government funds to boost its numbers, and Wednesday’s website is a sign the organisation is moving along with the times. The local member-based organisation is one of over 1000 Men’s Shed across Australia funded by the Federal Government to act as a central hub for information exchange. The local shed describes itself as a place for men to come together to capture and share their skills

Despite all the handiwork that goes on behind the shed doors, Mr McInernery said the tri-weekly meetings also helped build the well-being of men. “It just gives people something to do. “It’s about being able to talk to someone.” The Shed welcomes all male members, whether they want

to get involved in their many building projects or simply to have a coffee and chat. The Wodonga Men’s Shed is open Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 9am until noon at 20 Emerald Avenue. All men are welcome to attend. You can visit their new website, proudly put together as a community service by Sonya at Techcellence, at www.wodongamensshed.com.au for further information.

Albury to host the big lamb ‘roast’ ALBURY has beaten a long list of rival cities to secure the rights to host Australia’s premier lamb industry event, LambEx, in August next year. The announcement has been welcomed by community leaders. It will put the city on the national lambing map, and inject funds into the local economy. The event attracts more than 900 delegates and 70 exhibitors, and will bring sheep producers, consultants, and key industry representatives to the city. Minister for Primary Industries Niall Blair said Albury was an ideal choice for the expo. “The regional hub of Albury is a perfect choice to host the expo, with the location, facilities and community support to ensure the event is a great success,” Mr Blair said. AlburyCity Mayor Kevin Mack has welcomed last week’s announcement. “This is fantastic news for Albury and I congratulate all involved for their tireless efforts in bringing this national conference to our city,” Cr Mack said. “It will be the biggest event

we’ve hosted in a number of years and the economic return from having 900 delegates in the city for three days will be enormous.” Cr Mack says he’s confident the city will embrace the conference and provide a warm welcome to all delegates and exhibitors. “I can’t wait to see us transform into ‘Lamb city’ and celebrate the importance of the industry not only to our local economy, but Australia wide.” Member for Albury Greg Aplin congratulated AlburyCity Council and the local community on their strong submission to host LambEx 2016. “Albury Council has proposed a campaign to highlight lamb brand exposure and celebrate the product as a major part of the NSW economy,” Mr Aplin said. “This will include creating a local ‘Celebrate Lamb’ week, with all partner restaurants and hotels featuring a lamb special on their menu, as well as cooking demonstrations, local produce tasting tours and sheep farm tours.”

Service has nappy need covered By ERIN SOMERVILLE MORE parents fleeing their home to escape domestic violence will have support for their infants following the success of this year’s Albury Wodonga Nappy Collective. A total of 4526 nappies were donated to the cause that helps parents who have left home with their children often with little more than the clothes on their back. This is around 10 times as many nappies that were collected for the cause in October last year. The Nappy Collective Albury Wodonga team leader Sophie Richards

said the results were overwhelming for the effort her team and the community have put into the nappy drive. “From what I’ve heard it’s incredibly stressful to make a decision to have to pack up with nothing but what you’re wearing,” Ms Richards said. “They have got people out there thinking of them and supporting them at a difficult time. “I’ve certainly heard from friends and even one of my daughter’s teachers who have gone out and bought nappies because they have said it’s such a wonderful cause.” The donations equate to around

$2000 worth of nappies, however organisers say they will be used quickly. Deliveries to domestic violence support organisations have begun this week, where the nappies will be passed onto families in need as a result of domestic violence. Ms Richards hopes to see the initiative continue to have similar successes in the future to allow more families to benefit from the cause. “It will be possible to accept more requests from other organisations in the area, and take on more organisations in the future.”

A positive way of learning AT Albury Wodonga Community College, it’s always a great time to make a positive change in your life. Mid year intakes are now open and the college is welcoming those looking to make 2015 a year to remember. If you are thinking of studying, looking to upskill, develop better employment opportunities, or are simply just seeking a change, then the Albury Wodonga Community College encourages you to explore their great courses. The college will be holding two information nights in May and June for those interested in a career path in Early Childhood Education and Care, Aged Care, Community Care, Community Services Work, and working in disabled fields. One of Albury Wodonga Community College’s strengths is its ties with the community and potential employers, enabling students to make a quick transition into the workplace through skills, knowledge, and networks. Best of all, the small and intimate classes at Albury Wodonga Community College mean students get to make the most of their time. “We keep our classes smaller

than most other providers, which means that there is a real period of one-on-one time with trainers,” said Albury Wodonga Community College General Manager Anna Speedie. The smaller classes allow trainers to identify students’ key learning needs and abilities, creating successful industry experience matches, which regularly lead to employment. With 40 years experience in equipping Border residents with first class vocational training, the team certainly knows how to create the most desirable candidates for employment. “We employ highly skilled and knowledgeable staff so that we can offer our students the best trainers and resources,” Ms Speedie said. It’s never too late or too difficult to make a difference through Albury Wodonga Community College. All ages, cultures, and experiences are welcome to join. Information sessions for midyear intakes will be held June 2 at 6pm to 7pm. For more information on courses visit www.awcc.edu.au or call today on 02) 60438200.

Teal-tail signs shine By ERIN SOMERVILLE WODONGA Bulldogs have lined up to tackle ovarian cancer as part of a new partnership between the sports club and the Border Ovarian Cancer Awareness Group. Saturday’s Ovarian Ladies Day Lunch was the beginning of a flourishing partnership between the groups, with the fund-raiser planned to become an annual fixture on the sports club’s calendar. The club was only too happy to become involved with such a great cause, according to Wodonga Bulldogs Football and Sports Club social director Robyn Groat. “It is a cancer that doesn’t get

enough coverage,” she said. “It’s a great initiative, and we are already building on it to do this every year.” The fund-raiser included high tea, raffles, as well as a fashion parade courtesy of Wodonga’s Two Red Apples boutique. The Border Ovarian Cancer Awareness Group also took advantage of the beautiful weekend sunshine to head out in the crowd with donation tins with their famous teal knickers and ribbons. The event was also a chance for local women to be proactive about their health, with guest speaker Dr Pieter Mourik discussing the signs and tests to detect this silent killer.

FOR Jenny Moelaart, having access to a small, simple, and interest-free loan makes life a lot easier. Ms Moelaart is one of many local women who have discovered the No Interest Loan Scheme, that prevents low-income earners from being trapped in a credit cycle, without having to make sacrifices. She has used the loan for Christmas presents through to furnishing her home, all while paying it back without racking up any interest. “We would be struggling without NILS, there would be no way we could afford anything like we can now.” The NILS program is run by Good Shepherd Microfinance and works in partnership with the Australian Government Department of Social Services, state governments, and National Australia Bank to provide loans with no fees, interest, or charges. Loan amounts can vary, but can be as little as $300 or as much as $1200 for essential goods and services to low income earners.

No credit checks are made, but instead the program is based on trust and respect. The NILS service is run from the Albury Wodonga Women’s Centre, whose staff are pleased to be able to help out locals who need a little bit of extra support. “The good thing is once they pay off the loan they can re-apply if they still meet the criteria,” NILS Microfinancial worker Susie Geering said. With funds being recycled back into the pool for future applicants, Albury Wodonga Women’s Centre manager Peta Pitman said the model was proving sustainable. ‘It’s really an incentive to pay back so others can benefit,” she said. A NILS scheme is in the process of being established for men at St Luke’s in Albury. To see if you meet the NILS criteria and can take advantage of the loan, phone the women’s centre on 6041 1977 to speak to a loans officer, or visit at 645 Olive Street, Albury.

Jessica and Denise Horn raise their mugs to beating cancer. 139262

Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE

Duo teed up for day of action By ERIN SOMERVILLE FOR Denise and Jessica Horn, Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea runs well past the morning hours. For the past 15 years, Denise has been switching on the kettle for the Cancer Council cause, and now along with her daughter Jessica, hopes to help raise funds to fight the disease during the national fund-raising event on 28 May. The mother-daughter team will this year be holding their morning tea from their hair salon Bliss in Lavington, and will be dishing up baked goods from 9am right through until 9pm.

But the day-long effort is something Denise and Jessica are more than happy to be part of, with the disease having hit close to their hearts. “My husband died of head and neck cancer,” Denise said. “There isn’t much funding going towards head and neck cancer. “I like the Morning Tea because it’s not as specialised and money is going to some of those cancers that don’t get lots of funding.” And the Horns certainly know how to put on a Morning Tea spread, having raised over $1000 at last year’s Biggest Morning Tea event. They will also be raffling off hundreds of dollars of goods from their

salon, including a GHD, and hair product packages. The business will be one of many across the Border raising their tea cups to kick cancer. Murray Gardens residents have already had their fund-raiser, raising over $1000 for the Cancer Council, while the Cancer Council had its van in QEII Square on Friday to raise further funds. The Ibis Albury Lake Hume Resort will be having plenty of fun with their Morning Tea today, hosting it in Mad Hatter style from 11am.

INDI was an unexpected winner in last week’s Federal Budget after securing over $12 million in funding for local development projects. Wodonga’s CBA redevelopment project received a $10 million boost in federal funds, while $1.87 million will be pumped into Bright’s Alpine Events Centre and $200,000 to upgrade the Wahgunyah Recreation Reserve. The $12 million in funding came from a slice of the Federal Budget’s $1 billion National Stronger Regions Fund. Member for Indi Cathy McGowan said the capital investment was important in a growing area like the North East electorate, but noted there were omissions in funding to fix mobile coverage black spots and high-speed rail. Ms McGowan said both had a direct impact on tourism and business in the electorate. “In terms of this, we are way back in the dark ages,” she said. “There is an absolute need for this infrastructure.” Ms McGowan was also concerned that the region’s manufacturing sector was also overlooked. Over in Farrer, the electorate was also named in round one of the Government’s Stronger Regions Fund, and will receive $655,000 towards an up-

grade of the Mulwala Industrial Estate Development. The Stronger Communities Program will also fund smaller capital projects in local Farrer communities to the tune of $150,000 per year over the next two years, to support projects which deliver social benefits. Also budgeted for the upcoming financial year is $7 million for major roadworks on the Hume Freeway to access AlburyCity’s ‘Nexus’ industrial land development, as well as an ongoing $700,000 for the Albury Regional Art Gallery Redevelopment Project. Member for Farrer Sussan Ley has labelled the budget as a ‘blueprint’ for the Liberal Party’s long-term plan for Australia. “Budgets are always a financial balancing act but this document is both measured and fair, with a clear aim to build a stronger economy across the country. It’s a very good budget for regional areas like Farrer,” Ms Ley said. The Liberal Party has denied its budget cash splash is greasing the wheels for an early election, and Independent Ms McGowan said she would be surprised to see one called. “Talking to colleagues in government, there is no sign an election will happen this year,” she said. “But there’s always a chance of being wrong on that.”

Tales of the women behind the brave men at the front By MONIQUE KUZEFF BEECHWORTH has remembered its Anzac boys - and now they think it’s time to showcase the females who served throughout World War I. Exhibition curator Linda Peacock said the exhibition would showcase possessions of 19 nurses born in Beechworth who served in Egypt, France, India, and Salonika during World War I. Ms Peacock said that Family and Social Historian Anne Hanson had researched the nurses who enlisted and went overseas for the war, and afterwards she mentioned to Ms Peacock that it would make for a nice art exhibition. The exhibition was made possible by the money received from the Anzac Centenery Committee and Commonwealth Arts Ministry Grant. “We decided that it would be a really good time to mount the exhibition in commemoration of the four years of WWI after the 100th Anzac Centenery, especially now that we’ve gotten funding for it," Ms Peacock said. “There will be souvenirs the women brought back from their nursing experiences, uniforms, medals and all sorts of gifts that were given to the nurses from citizens from the areas they served in.

The name of the exhibition ‘Red Capes and Suitcases’ derived from the possessions that were collected, Ms Peacock said. “Among the objects was a very delicate red silk cape - a nursing cape, and also an old suitcase which we felt possessed certain feminine elements. “It’ll be a poignant snapshot of women’s experiences during WWI, and it sort of represents

IT was indeed a dog’s day on Sunday as hundreds of pooches headed to Hovell Tree Park for a good cause. The RSPCA’s Million Paws Walk fundraiser brought 400 of the organisation’s canine friends, and even the brave cat here and there, to help raise money for the cause that help all creatures great and small. Albury RSPCA chairwoman Alison Parry said the fundraiser was important to keep providing services to the local community. “It’s one of our main fundraisers for the year and it’s really important for us,� Ms Parry said. “All the funds stay in the Albury area.� Sunday’s walk raised around $5000, which will go towards a local desexing program in partnership with Border vets to cut the cost of the procedure for those who are eligible. The money will also help feed, house, and pay the vet bills for a number of the local RSPCA’s foster pets. Pet lovers attending the RSPCA’s Million Paws Walk also had the opportunity to have their pets microchipped for free if they registered them on the day, while Victorian residents and those not registering pets had their pet microchipped at the discounted rate of $20. Ms Parry says she is grateful for the organisers who put together the fund-raiser, as well as those who attended. Our photographer ADAM WILSON was out among the hundreds of paws to catch all the canine action on the day.

Can’t resist a gourmet By ERIN SOMERVILLE EVEN those who aren’t handy in the kitchen will find it hard to resist gourmet inspiration at this weekend’s Hume Murray Farmers’ Market , with Masterchef Julie Goodwin dishing up some tasty ideas. Ms Goodwin, who is also the Halve Waste ambassador for the Albury area to promote more sustainable waste practices, will be firing up the stove in a cooking demonstration using the best of local produce right on the Border’s doorstep. The Masterchef will also be joined by green thumb Milton ‘Gumboots’ Kimball, who will be on hand for the best gardening ideas leading into winter, as well as looking at great ways to recycle and re-use. The stars’ appearances come as part of the Halve Waste initiative in Albury aimed at promoting re-using and recycling, and reducing organic waste from taking up space in the city’s landfill. As part of the initiative, green organics bins were rolled out to Albury households by Transpacific Cleanaway in April that are collected weekly. Transpacific Cleanaway spokesperson Nina McHardy said the initiative to reduce organic waste was working well in the city. “It’s going really well,” she said.

Get some inspiration this weekend at the Hume Murray Farmers' Market from Julie Goodwin. 139268 Picture: PROVIDED BY COLLECTIONS VIC “We are really happy with residents' uptake of the system. “Contamination rates are really low.” To continue helping to become a greener household, head on down to the Hume Murray Farmers’ Market and get some inspiration from Julie and Gum-

Call goes out for inspiring projects

ENTRIES are now open for Victoria’s largest sustainability awards program for schools and early childhood services, the ResourceSmart Education Awards. Sustainability Victoria CEO Stan Krpan is encouraging all Victorian schools to enter this year’s ResourceSmart Education Awards by submitting their sustainability projects. “Every day, Victorian children and students are working on innovative and interesting projects that engage them on environmentally sustainable practices. “It is great to see that so many Victorian schools and students are passionate about making positive changes in the environment for the next generation. “I encourage all Victorian schools to enter the ResourceSmart Education Awards and share their stories,” Mr Krpan said. The ResourceSmart Education Awards celebrate and reward the actions of Victoria’s most sustainable early childhood centres, primary and

secondary schools. The awards encourage children and students to embed environmental actions into their everyday activities and to inspire others to make similar changes. The theme for this year is Imagine, Act, Inspire whereby students and teachers will showcase their work in reducing energy, waste and water usage, increases in biodiversity, and how they engage with the wider school community on these issues. Victorian schools are among the most sustainable in Australia. In 2014, ResourceSmart Schools saved $3.8 million by reducing their energy and water consumption and by generating less waste. Winning schools and early childhood centres will share in $40,000 prize money. Entries close on Monday 17 August 2015. For more information and to submit an entry, visit www.sustainability.vic.gov.au/services-and-advice/ schools/education-awards.

Energy saving tips

The smartest energy choice under the sun.

AUSTRALIA’S per-capita greenhouse gas emissions are among the highest in the world and continue to climb. Most of the country’s electricity is generated by burning coal. Almost every home has the potential to save more. To start saving energy, water and money today, read through the tips in this section. People should start with changes they can make straight away and plan to make some of the bigger changes in the future. Remember, the more changes that are made the more that can be saved. Choosing efficient appliances

Australia’s leading home energy brand has released a new affordable, ultra efficient solar energy system with free wireless monitoring as standard. Only ZEN Solar Energy Systems are compatible with the ZEN Urban and ZEN Freedom Powerbank Energy Storage Systems, to store your solar energy for use at night. The new ZEN DC range features an online interface and App based monitoring, combined with ZEN’s industry leading panel technology. With local technical support from a company that’s here to stay and a 25-year linear performance warranty, there’s never been a better time to go solar!

· · ·

Don’t just look at the purchase price - a cheaper appliance may cost more to run in the long term. The energy rating label has two main features: The star rating gives a quick comparison of the model’s energy efficiency. The rating is out of six stars - the more stars, the more energy efficient. The comparative energy consumption is an estimate of the annual energy use of the appliance. It is also a rough indication of running costs - for example if the appliance uses 500kWh a year, it will cost around $50 a year to run.

Appliances account for about 20 per cent of household energy use and costs. By selecting and using energy efficient appliances people can: Save money by reducing energy bills; Improve the energy efficiency of a home; Reduce greenhouse pollution; Consider replacing older, expensive-to-run appliances with high energy star rated appliances. Energy efficient whitegoods can save up to $1400 on energy bills and up to 14 tonnes of greenhouse gas over a 10-year product life span. Choose appliances according to their star rating.

THE water-efficiency of white goods and other items - such as dishwashers, washing machines, showers, taps and toilets - is indicated by a Water Rating Label which shows a star-rating with a water-consumption or water-flow figure. On outdoor water-saving products, consumers can look for the Smart Approved WaterMark. This labelling scheme is voluntary and it can often be found on car washes, cleaners, gardening products, grey water systems, household plumbing, pool covers and filters, rainwater harvesting and watering systems, among others.

Did you know? A four-star WELS-rated dualflush toilet uses more than 60 per cent less water than a single-flusher. A three star-rated showerhead can save thousands of litres of water per person each year. They use as little as eight litres a minute, compared to 20 for standard showerheads. Water-efficient taps, tap aerators or an in-tap flow regulator can save up to 50 per cent of usage, as well as providing softer water with less splashing. A five star-rated water-efficient washing machine can save a household up to 24,000

litres of water a year. A trigger nozzle on a hose in the garden helps prevent overwatering. A grey water diversion or treatment system recycles water from a shower or laundry, again saving water and money. More than the entire volume of water in a swimming pool is usually lost each year through evaporation. As well as stopping the water and cash from disappearing and keeping it warmer, a pool cover also keeps it cleaner, so there will be less need to backwash filters, which can waste water at a significant rate.

Energy storage a game changer Recognition for eco-conscious

LOCAL households have long understood the importance of generating solar energy, however the biggest challenge was using it 24/7 - that’s about to change. ZEN Energy Systems chief executive officer Richard Turner said energy storage had emerged as the game changer for householders seeking to harness free energy from the sun. “It’s the way of the future as it allows 24/7 access to solar energy, and gives householders greater independence and protection from rising energy costs,” he said. “Solar energy is truly viable, with the cost dropping by around 70 per cent over the past three years.” Tesla gained global headlines recently when it an-

nounced its domestic solar energy battery for release in 2016. Adelaide-based ZEN is already well advanced with its own household energy storage system and plans to launch it later this year, utilising advanced “Li-lon polymer” batteries produced by Korean company LG. “ZEN has pioneered energy storage in Australia and already has the ZEN Freedom PowerBank available in the market for use in remote and regional areas,” Mr Turner said. “Our tailored household energy storage system, the Urban PowerBank, is only months away from launching.” Mr Turner said ZEN’s new Urban PowerBank system will be cost-effective and will be made more accessible to householders.

“There is increasing noise in the market now around solar energy storage and it’s important to look carefully at what is being offered,” he said. “Some overseas systems may quote a headline price that is only the battery and doesn’t include additional infrastructure including the required bidirectional inverter, freight and duties, and installation, which can bring the package to the average market rate.” ZEN’s Urban PowerBank is expected to be available during the third quarter of this year. ZEN is an award-winning solar energy and energy storage company supporting a network of installers and regional franchisees in South Australia, New South Wales, West Australia, Victoria and New Zealand. www.zenhomeenergy.com.au

VICTORIANS who have shown leadership in sustainability and a commitment to improving the environment are encouraged to enter the 2015 Premier’s Sustainability Awards and share their work. Sustainability Victoria CEO Stan Krpan said the awards were a great way of acknowledging and rewarding individuals and companies that had made practical and innovative efforts in reducing their environmental impacts, and influencing others to do the same. “Each year we see such a high calibre of talent from people who are truly passionate about the environment and being innovative in sustainable practices, including developing new products and services. “Last year, the Premier’s

Sustainability Awards received the highest number of entries since the awards’ inception - we look forward to this year’s entries matching even those numbers,” Mr Krpan said. Now in their 13th year, the Premier’s Sustainability Awards will continue to promote leadership and innovation in sustainability, and encourage a broader adoption of these practices by all Victorians. Entries are now open for all levels of government, business, organisation, community groups, or individuals who have participated in the care of our environment and inspired leadership in this area. There are 10 categories in this year’s awards program, of which two are completely new - Health Award and Envi-

ronmental Justice Award. The categories are: Built Environment Award, Community Award, Education Award, Environmental Justice Award, Environmental Protection Award, Government Award, Health Award Innovative Products or Services Award, Large Business Award, Small and Medium Enterprises Award. In addition to these awards, the Premier will personally select two overall winners for the Premier’s Regional Recognition Award and the Premier’s Recognition Award. Entries close on Monday 13 July 2015. For more information on the awards, including entry criteria and information sessions, visit www.sustainabilityawards.vic.gov.au

Right royal twaddle, with twist Movie: A Royal Night Out Length: 1hr 37min, rated M A ROYAL Night Out is total twaddle and to be taken with a grain of salt but having said that there is still something gloriously entertaining about it. Set on the night of VE Day, the war is over and the whole of London is celebrating except the royal family who seem destined to spend the entire night cloistered in the palace except for the King’s speech on the wireless and a brief appearance on the balcony. Other than that they will be entertaining dignitaries. Fine for the King and Queen, but not really what the young princesses want to be doing. Lizzy and Mags want to join the rest of the nation, the

world and they do - eventually. From there on in we get to see VE Day through the eyes of the young princesses. Margaret falls for a cad and ends up in the fountain at Trafalgar and the seedy dens of Soho and Elizabeth spends her night trying to find her with the help of AWOL squaddy Jack - who is anything but a royalist. This is fun, frilly, frivolous and fantastical and actually pretty funny. I’m loath to use the word “chick flick” but if ever there was one, well this is it. As always the entertaining and dapper Rupert Everett is a scene stealer and brings a nice amount of heart as King George VI (a role that his long-time friend Colin Firth played in the supberb The

King's Speech). This time Rupert is playing the king for laughs and yet - he gives him a nice depth and the relationship between himself and Elizabeth (Canadian Sarah Gadon) is a warm and nicely explored one. Gadon (World Without End) herself brings a lot of heart to Lizzy which allows this romp to have enough emotional depth to keep you enjoying the silliness (and touch of drama) of the plot. From the director and writer of Becoming Jane, this is a movie that shouldn’t work but does - there’s nothing like a good old-fashioned farce and I defy you not to feel like coming home, curling up with a nice cup of tea and watching Roman Holiday after this one! - Tania Phillips

Brothers’ dangerous dynamic IN 2011, audiences were wowed by Boy Girl Wall, in 2014 they were in hysterics with Packed and now Matthew Ryan is returning with his latest new Australian masterpiece, Kelly. HotHouse is thrilled to have the Queensland Theatre Company’s production of Kelly at the Butter Factory on 2-6 June as part of the Victorian regional tour through Ned Kelly’s home state. Matthew Ryan’s Kelly is the first new play written about Ned Kelly since 1941 and portrays the infamous

cult heroes and brothers Ned and Dan Kelly in a totally new light. History tells us that they never saw eye to eye and there is also a myth that Dan escaped the gun fire and disappeared to Queensland. This makes for a brilliantly charged premise, explored beautifully on stage in 80 gripping minutes, weaving Kelly fact, theory and myth while exploring masculinity, brotherhood and the dangerous dynamic of mateship. Ned Kelly (Steven Rooke) is about to hang for his crimes but his final

night in prison is interrupted by the arrival of his brother Dan (Kevin Spink), disguised as a priest. Supposedly killed at the siege of Glenrowan, Dan is intent on moving north to Queensland and forgetting his past. But to do so, he needs Ned’s blessing and forgiveness and the last time they saw each other, Dan tried to shoot Ned dead. So begins a brutal confrontation by two titans of Australian history. Facing the sins of their past, each

blames the other for their downfall. And neither will escape unharmed. Kelly boasts a brilliant cast of three of Brisbane’s finest actors - Anthony Standish (End of the Rainbow, Cosi), Kevin Spink (Gloria, Macbeth) and the Matilda Award winning Steve Rooke who plays Ned Kelly in a powerhouse performance with humour, heart and depth. SEASON INFORMATION Dates: 2-6 June Venue: Butter Factory Theatre,

Gateway Village, Lincoln Causeway, Wodonga Opening night: Tuesday 2 June 8pm Times: Wednesday 3 June at 6.30pm, 4 June at 11am and 8pm, 5 June at 8pm, 6 June at 3pm and 8pm. Supper Club: Wednesday 3 June post-show Meet The Artists: Friday 5 June post-show Tickets: Full $49, concessions $42. Groups of four are $145, groups of six are $198, groups of 10 are $300. Red Hot Rush/Under 26 are $20.

STUNNING gowns and couture pieces will take centre stage as part of a new exhibition on display in the LibraryMuseum. The exhibition, titled ‘From Paris to Albury: High Fashion and Regional Australia in the 1960s’, is set to be a fashionista’s delight. It will include pieces created by significant Australian designers Beril Jents and Germaine Rocher, as well as European designers Hardy Amies and Jean Patou. The exhibition is part of AlburyC-

ity’s Vie Hawkins collection; an assortment of fashionable pieces that were bought throughout the world and worn in the region and donated to the exhibition. AlburyCity Museum collections officer Victoria Cooper said Vie’s biography reads like a script from a movie. “She was born into a prominent local cattle family and was always destined for a fashionable life,” she said. “As a young single woman, she travelled overseas with her sister Isobel and among her souvenirs from London

was a Hardy Amies suit. “This very suit is now on display for all to see at the LibraryMuseum and I encourage all people - be they fashion lovers or not - to come and check out this wonderful collection.” In conjunction with the From Paris to Albury exhibition, award-winning author Nicole Jenkins will share her old-school fashion tips at the LibraryMuseum on Saturday 23 May, from 2pm. Attendees should call 6023 8333 to RSVP by Thursday 21 May.

Little gem’s neat and tidy as you like THIS little beauty won’t be sitting on the market for long. Perched in West Wodonga with beautiful views of the city and nearby ranges, this quality built Alatalo home provides you with everything you could need in a peaceful and tranquil environment. Driving up the lovely bricked court, you will realise this area is something special. As you enter the home, walking past its easily maintainable front yard complete with a bark-chip feature garden, you’ll be delighted at how neat and tidy this place is. As you walk in the home, you’ll notice the beautiful freshly painted walls and spotless new carpets just ready for this home to take on a new lease of life with you and your family. There is a large lounge room with plenty of space for a big lounge to curl up in, your entertainment system, and the whole gang to kick back in. On sunny days, throw open the curtains and let the sun shine in through the lovely bay windows or the sliding glass door at the rear of the room. The home has been thought-

gas wall furnaces keeping the home nice and toasty in these chillier months. When spring comes back around, ducted evaporative cooling and fans will help keep the inside temperatures down. Aside from the views, the size of the backyard will also leave you in awe. A huge undercover area will mean you can invite guests around rain, hail, or shine, and built-in brick barbecue adds character and makes playing the host that much easier. There is plenty of lawn space as well as room for a vegie patch and flower garden. However, for the practical or handy, the real gem is the backyard shed. Complete with power, a separate workshop, bench space, and even a double sink on the side outside, this could easily become your second home. There is also a double lockup garage with roller doors and rear access, just in case you needed more space for storage. For investors, rent is expected to fetch $320 to $335 per week; a return of up to 5.86 per cent. It’s here today, but could be gone tomorrow, so act quick on this property.

fully built to ensure you have plenty of room for your extras, and you’ll enjoy the storage options found throughout the home. You will love the spacious timber kitchen, with a double sink overlooking the picturesque views from the backyard. There is so much storage space here, so if you have lots of kitchen gadgets there is plenty of space for them. There is also a dishwasher and double fridge space, making the kitchen very practical. You can’t go past the fourburner gas stove and gas oven, either. It comes with plenty of space for a dining area. The home has three bedrooms, and each offers plenty of space and great built-in wardrobes. The built-ins have hanging space and shelves, so is just ready for you and your family to move in and fill them with your goodies. The master suite has a triple wardrobe, gorgeous bay windows, and access to a shared bathroom. The two-way bathroom is very pleasant, and has a deep spa to jump in after a hard day. You won’t be chilly after your soak in the spa either, with two

Stage 7B and Stage 10 in Riverside Estate

Market varied as state

is now available for purchase. Why not pop in

WHILE REIV publishes median house and unit prices for regional Victoria as a whole, with the latest data showing a 6.4 per cent increase in the median house price for the 12 months to the end of March, Victoria’s property market is as varied as our state itself. The latest data shows substantial variation in the growth in house prices between regions and even between towns within those regions. Factors such as transport links, in particular commuting distance to Melbourne, the availability of good schools, shopping and other infrastructure can play a big part. So the top growth areas in the12 months to the end of March unsurprisingly include towns which tick those boxes. Kyneton, with 13.4 per cent growth and a March median house price of $465,000, Castlemaine with10.7 per cent growth and a $408,750 median, Woodend with 21.7 per cent growth (median $645,000) and Corio with 9.1 per cent and a $240,000 median, are all in demand from families and first home buyers priced out of Melbourne but needing easy access to the city for work. So, too, Bendigo with 19.8 per cent growth and a $401,250 median, although it also offers job opportunities with the New Bendigo Hospital building project. Geelong recorded growth of 20.4 percent and a March 2015 median $590,000, New Gisborne with a $556,300 median and 13.5 per cent growth and Traralgon with 8.4 per cent growth and a $303,050 median, are also within commuting distance. Lifestyle, too, is a factor. Many people, including those with young families, are embracing the advantages of green space, fresh air and

friendly regional and rural communities, along with more affordable house prices. Yarrawonga, where the March median house price was $334,250, had the highest annual growth in regional Victoria for the year to the end of March with 28.6 per cent. At three hours’ drive to Melbourne, it could not be considered commuting distance, but as a local real estate agency points out on its website, it offers a one-hour drive to Albury airport, the wineries are just 20 minutes away and the snowfields two hours. The second highest growth centre was the North East Victorian centre of Wangaratta, with 24.5 percent in the 12 months to March and a median house price of $302,500. Close to the wine and gourmet regions of King Valley and Milawa, as well as historic centres such as Glenrowan, this vibrant tourist centre has excellent shopping and its own jazz and blues festival. Factors such as local job opportunities, the closure of a major industry or the commencement of a new, job-creating project, the building of infrastructure such as a new railway station or the introduction of speedier transport links can all have a bearing on local property prices. In some cases, substantial growth in prices can reflect recovery from a period of downturn, or what appears to be a drop in prices can be a stabilising factor after a period of growth. Other centres in the state’s top 20 growth areas for the 12 months to the end of March included Benalla, Hamilton, Mildura, Red Cliffs, just south of Mildura, Sale, Ballarat East and Canadian inBallarat’s east, Daylesford and Strathfieldsaye on the outskirts of Bendigo.

All fired up COMPETITION leaders Albury stayed at the top of the Ovens and Murray Football League ladder with a spirited 58-point win over Wodonga in a fiery game at John Flower Oval, Wodonga on Saturday. Albury came home with a nine-goal second half to beat their rivals 15.14 (104) to 7.4 (46). Brayden O’Hara was the star with the boot for Albury, kick-

ing five for the game to take his total for the year to 22 from six games. He proved a good support for Dean Polo who was best on ground for the match-winners. Meanwhile Daniel Bradshaw stood out again for Wodonga, kicking five of his team’s seven for the match. Bradshaw, best on ground for the side, now has 18 goals for the year.

Local Sport Red white and true Geoff Damm, Paul Ingwersen and Craig McMillan were proudly named Country Championships Medal Winners. 139263 PIcture: BENDED ELBOW CYCLING TEAM

State cycle success By CRAIG MCMILLAN, BENDED ELBOW CYCLING TEAM

BENDED Elbow Cycling Team members enjoyed success across the weekend in the Country Victorian State Championship, securing the Masters 4 category, before backing up to feature prominently in one of the Borders' Classic races, the Geoff Dixon Memorial held in Chiltern. On Saturday a large contingent of Border cyclists made the journey to Harcourt to contest the Victorian Country Titles over a challenging road course, against the top regional riders. Wodonga’s Paul Ingwersen enjoyed success in the Masters 4 category over 57km to pick up the first title for the Bended Elbow Cycling team, with Craig McMillan supporting with a third place to round out the podium. Another Wodonga rider Geoff Damm impressed with a fine third place in the highly competitive Masters 5 grade over 57km, with a very strong field including ex-Olympians. Elite rider Declan Gregory continued to show development with a solid ninth place in the 115km Elite Men’s race. With a field comprising of national professional riders, Declan rode aggressively throughout and finished strongly to continue to be the form rider in local racing. To complete a tough weekend of racing, Sunday held the annual running of the Geoff Dixon Memorial race in Chiltern. Raced over 60km, with groups handicapped based on ability, the event attracted over 70 riders, enjoying a fast course and perfect racing weather. A fast and determined scratch group swept all aside to arrive at the finish with a heavily reduced field to contest the sprint. In a bitter-sweet outcome, Wagga Wagga’s young sensation Myles Stewart surprised the seasoned scratch riders with a blistering 200m effort to claim his first Riverina Series win. Every cyclist understands crashes are part of the risks associated with cycle racing, but the sound of carbon bikes clashing strikes fear in every rider. In a hotly contested finish, a number of riders came down in the charge for the line. The excellent organisation of the Albury Wodonga Cycling Club had medical support at hand, with fellow riders also co operating to ensure all riders were professionally assisted.

CHILTERN has always had a strong following, but Swans fans went to great lengths to get supporters on their home turf for Saturday’s clash against Yackandandah with the launch of the Chiltern Community Open Day. The club provided free entry to all of Chiltern’s 1800 local residents as well as holding their past players day and official barbecue on the same day and a comedy night after the game. Club president Michael Eames announced the initiative after local Craig Price floated the idea at their recent club forum. “Craig is very community minded, he floated the idea at our forum a couple of weeks ago and our committee thought it was a great idea so have acted on it straight away,” Mr Eames said. “We all know country sporting clubs play a huge role in communities such as Chiltern and we are keen to give something back.” “We would love every one of our 1800 locals to jump on board and come streaming through the gates but even if it was just one extra family who hasn’t seen a Chiltern home game before we would be more than happy with that, too. Many of the locals in Chiltern are already staunch Swans supporters and members of the club, but the club hoped to find a few extra fans on the day. While Yackandandah fans had

Brody and Riley Shannon show their Swans pride. 139298 to pay their toll in to the game, Mr Eames said he was sure the rivals would be understanding. “Yackandandah is a great club and they always have a good sup-

porter base at our games, home or away, we hope they come along in numbers to support their teams but unfortunately we can’t afford to bring the whole of the Indigo Shire

in for free this time. “It could be something we look at in the future to continue to drive community interest in our country football and netball club.”

Wodonga comes out tops WODONGA is secure on top of the Ovens and Murray Netball League ladder after leaving Saturday’s match with a nine-goal victory over local rival Albury. The match was closely fought throughout, with Wodonga fighting back from trailing 1014 at quarter time to just take the upper hand from Albury at half time, 24-23. But the close score didn’t last for long. Wodonga powered back after half time, securing a comfortable lead through the third quarter to win the match 54-45. Wodonga shooter Jane Cook brought her incredible accuracy to the match, scoring all of her 42 goal attempts and taking out the team’s best player award alongside Maggie Young. Wodonga tops the competition’s ladder at 24 points, while Albury sits at fourth position on 16 points. Brigetta Hart and Erika Butler took out best player awards for Albury.
