■ ‘Definitely making a difference’...
Cut-out pilot By JESSE GRAHAM
Brendan Fitzpatrick, Mel McLaren and principal Danny Hyndman with the slow down signs at Woori Yallock Picture: ROB CAREW Primary School. 140002 “Drivers are noticing the cut-outs of the children and changing their behaviour,” she said. Ms Siebert said the project started at Lilydale Primary School and a num-
ber of surrounding schools, with each location recording positive results. “Each location showed a reduction in speeding, and it certainly generated discussions in the school community

Yarra Ranges Council’s executive officer of Emergency Management Kate Siebert said the cut-out program was in its pilot stages, but was “definitely making a difference”.
and with the local residents,” she said. She said that more research would need to be done once the pilot was complete, to know the impact of the program in the long-term. But the cut-out program, which will only run at the school for two weeks, is a stepping stone towards an ultimate goal of having 40km/h flashing signs to alert drivers of the lower speed limit. Currently, the road features static speed signs around the school, which list the times that the lower speed is enforced, but Mr Hyndman said the signs weren’t enough. “The thing is ... that we don’t benefit in terms of financial gain if this gets funded,” he said. “It’s outside the school - it’s purely around that we want our community to be safe, particularly our kids.” Eildon MP Cindy McLeish has also voiced her support of replacing the signs with electronic versions, and has lobbied the government for a change. Con Stasinos, VicRoads’ director of Transport and Planning, Metro South East, told the Mail that the existing signs at the school were consistent with similar locations around the state. Mr Stasinos said that, for electronic 40km/h speed signs to be installed, at least 20,000 vehicles needed to use the section of road per day. “We will continue to work with the primary school and Yarra Ranges Council to improve pedestrian safety within the area,” he said. “Any future electronic school speed signs are subject to the criteria and other statewide funding priorities.” Other schools interested in the cutouts can contact Yarra Ranges Council’s Community Safety Team on 1300 368 333 or communitysafety@yarraranges.vic.gov.au.

DRIVERS passing the Woori Yallock Primary School at pick-up and dropoff times may have been surprised to see students standing at road signs, holding signs of their own. Bearing signs that read, “Please slow down” and “Thank you for slowing down”, the life-sized and incredibly life-like cut-outs of students are part of a road safety program to improve driver awareness. The Yarra Ranges Council’s Slow Down and Walk program has been running at the school for the last two weeks, after being trialled in Lilydale last year. The project involves placing cutouts that resemble students near 40km/h school zone signs during the times they are active, to remind drivers to be wary of their speed as students are around. Principal Danny Hyndman told the Mail that the school had been actively pushing for drivers to be more aware of the variable speed limit on the Healesville-Kooweerup Road. “We’ve tried to turn every stone, so we could get these signs,” Mr Hyndman said. “We heard about Lilydale doing the cut-outs, so we went and had a look at that - this is where we’ve got to. “We wheel them out every morning and bring them back in.” The signs have been a success thus far, according to Mr Hyndman, who said people he knew that used the road had contacted him in support of the program. “The parents can see that we’re really proactive about the safety of our kids, and we can see that cars are really slowing down,” he said.

Budget efficiencies IT’S budget time of the year again, and your Yarra Ranges councillors have been working hard for the past few months to set a budget that achieves a balance that is true to our commitment to keep rates low. It’s not an easy task; we have limited revenue but seemingly limitless opportunities for investment in such a large and diverse municipality. But this year’s budget is all about efficiencies. We have proactively sought to present a realistic budget that balances our Council Plan with the community’s infrastructure and service needs. We are focused on achieving savings through a reduction in operat-

We are conscious of the rising costs of everyday living for households and will continue to ensure our rates are as low as possible, while still maintaining our commitment to quality outcomes for our community. This council has achieved great
outcomes with savings and efficiencies, resulting in a significant decrease to council’s rating strategy in the future years of the budget and the Long Term Financial Plan - 4.8 per cent to 3.9 per cent from 2016’17 onwards. We will continue to deliver the same level of service, as well as a robust capital works program each year. We know roads and footpaths are important to you, so we have set aside $10.29 million for new roads and improvements in 2015-’16. Footpaths will receive $3.61 million and parks and open spaces $2.69 million. We will spend $8.9 million (in-

cluding State Government funding) supporting the aged and people who have a disability, $10 million providing for families and young people and $3.1 million for arts, culture and heritage. Your council will continue to strive to provide the best value for our ratepayers, while ensuring the Yarra Ranges continues to be a fantastic place to live, work and play. The budget is currently out for consultation and will be endorsed at a Special Meeting of council on 16 June.

HEALESVILLE Sanctuary is calling on residents to dig deep and donate as part of its Australian Wildlife Hospital Appeal, with a special visitor dropping in to support the cause. Channel Nine’s Livinia Nixon visited the sanctuary’s hospital on Tuesday 2 June, to film an advertisement for the appeal, which is aiming to raise $200,000 over winter to keep the wildlife hospital going. Ms Nixon stood with orphaned koala Gumnut and her keeper Amie Hindson for the shoot, and said money donated through the appeal would help other animals like Gumnut receive help when brought in injured or orphaned. She said Gumnut was cared for “24 hours a day“ by Ms Hindson, being bottle-fed repeatedly during the day and taken home at night according to Zoos Victoria’s website, this care will continue for the next year. For more information or to donate visit www.zoo.org.au/getinvolved/donate/wildlife-hospital-appeal The advertisement will air on Keeper Amie Hindson, with koala Gumnut, and Livinia Nixon at Healesville Sanctuary's Australian Picture: JESSE GRAHAM Wildlife Hospital. 139977 television in the near future.

Heads used for art of brigade
Schools embrace healthy lifestyle By KATH GANNAWAY
By JESSE GRAHAM
About 40 people attended the auction, with $2500 raised for the Warburton Fire Brigade. 140082 Picture: CONTRIBUTED

project; something a little bit different to engage the artists.” She said the response to the exhibition had been “amazing”, and that the money raised from the event was all going to the brigade. “It will go towards maybe equipment ... or we do have provisions for the replacements of vehicles – it’s up to the brigade really,” Ms Smith said. Bill Proctor’s helmet, The Wombat, was the most sought-after piece, and sold for $305, followed by Fire and Filigree by Lynette Orzlowski, sold for $300.
The support of the CFA showed in the pieces sold off, with many of them paying tribute to the work that firefighters do to protect their communities. One helmet had been fashioned into a fauxbird’s nest, with three eggs that read “thank you CFA”. Ms Smith said that some pieces had been bought by members of the public and then donated back to the Warburton Fire Brigade. For more information about HelmART or the Warburton Fire Brigade’s centenary, search for Warburton Fire Brigade CFA on Facebook.
The fire brigade and the Coombe estate have a common historical link – Dame Nellie Melba opened the Warburton Fire Station in February 1915. Estate manager Daniel Johnson said that Melba’s granddaughter, the late Pamela Lady Vestey, supported the CFA. “She was very appreciative of the work they do, not just here at Coldstream, but throughout the region,” he said. “So, it makes sense to do everything we can to utilise this property to recognise and assist the wonderful job the volunteers do.”

THOUSANDS of dollars from sold artworks will bolster the Warburton Fire Brigade, after decommissioned helmets were made into art and auctioned off last week, in a special event at Coombe’s Melba Estate. The HelmART exhibition featured 32 decommissioned fire helmets, which were turned over to Yarra Valley artists and made into works of art. From decorative paintings and mosaics, to miniature gardens and even a functional lamp, the former helmets took on a new life and adorned the walls of the Coombe gallery from 22 May to 2 June. On Tuesday 2 June, the helmets were auctioned off, raking in about $2500 for the Warburton Fire Brigade. Warburton Fire Brigade’s Centenary Events co-ordinator, Leila Smith, said the exhibition was organised for the brigade’s 100th birthday. “As part of that, we were trying to engage various community members to be able to help celebrate the occasion,” she said. “It started off as a fun
SCHOOL children in Upper Yarra will have greater opportunities for a healthy lifestyle, thanks to the dedicated team of volunteers at the Adcare Opportunity Shop and their supporters. The shop is really punching above its weight when it comes to supporting the Upper Yarra community. Shop manager Kathy Kearns said they were delighted when they wrote to five local primary schools offering a grant of $1000 each from the proceeds of the shop. “We wanted them to direct the benefits to the students to promote a healthy lifestyle and asked them to give a brief outline of how they would like to spend the money,” Kathy said. “We were really thrilled at what we got back.” Each school had different projects and ways of addressing the brief. Wesburn will spend the money on a fitness incursion, Millwarra at East Warburton and Millgrove will spend the money on a bike program, Yarra Junction will add a ‘fruity Friday’ to their three-day-a-week breakfast club, and Warburton on opening up their Stephanie Alexander kitchen to the community. The shop also supports the Linc community welfare group, the Redwood Centre’s Second Bite food bank, a project in Cambodia, and has recently sent money to two areas in Vanuatu. Importantly, their policy is to keep their prices low as a direct way of helping people to buy good clothing and household goods at an affordable price. Val Darke is one of several longserving volunteers of the 14-member team.

She has been on the job for nearly 30 years. “Originally, it wasn’t this type of op shop, we supplied food parcels and clothing where it was needed in the community,” she said. “We had a sale every two or three months with everything just set up in the hall. “Now we have four rooms.” Beryl Holton and Daphne Barber are also well over due for their ‘long service’ and remember when they used to clean houses for the local real estate agents as a side line to raise money to fund their welfare services. “Food parcels were the main thing years ago, and we would do 10 to 12 a day,” Beryl said. “They were especially in demand around Christmas time.” The infrequent sales morphed into the op shop which is open on Tuesdays and every third Sunday of the month. Kathy said it was doubly blessed with people very generous with donations, and a wonderful and growing customer base. “We have one lady who moved away but still brings donations up here and we have people who come up from down the line and actually plan their visit to Warburton around the third Sunday,” she said. The shop is very proudly displaying a sign showing the schools and other organisations that have received grants recently. “The community really appreciates our little shop and we wanted to let them know how their donations benefit so many people, and for our customers, what we do with their money.”

Letters I WOULD like to thank Jeanette McRae for warning us of the possibility of mineral exploration within our area. I am absolutely appalled by the idea, and hope the council knocks it on the head. In the United States, fracking has caused terrible damage to communities, and the environment. It has poisoned ground water, caused earthquakes in previously stable areas, and led to incidental harm through noise, air pollution, heavy vehicle traffic, etc. There is also the matter of gas leakages with attendant risk of explosion -- just what we need in our bushfire-prone area. There is even an amusing story about the CEO of a minerals company who sued a fracking operation where he lives in Texas, because his house value plummeted. The Healesville community needs to unite as a matter of urgency to oppose any such misdevelopment within our township, or anywhere near it. A more general consideration is that even conservative organisations like the World Bank now recommend leaving fossil fuel reserves in the ground. Extracting it is guaranteed to speed up the cooking of our planet. Dr Bob Rich, Healesville
Let democracy work I URGE all councillors to defer any further action re: Planning Scheme Amendment C 146 Intensive Animal Husbandry until they face the ratepayers at the next election. They can then declare their hand regarding this major change to our living conditions and give all the ratepayers a choice whether to change the planning scheme or not, a truly democratic choice and not, as it is now, driven by councillors without a mandate for this change. This way, any perception of vested interest would be eliminated. Vin Bellizia, Hoddles Creek.
Mates on board IN a submission to the Victorian Parliament, the United Firefighters Union Australia (UFUA) has demanded the removal of volunteer fire-fighter representatives from the CFA board. In their place the UFUA would replace volunteer representatives with their own handpicked mates. Clearly, the UFUA are calling in the political favours owed to them by Premier Daniel Andrews, putting at risk the very foundation of our rural and regional fire services in Victoria - our volunteers. The CFA board makes important decisions that have a direct impact on community safety and is responsible for one of the world’s largest volunteer organisations. Volunteers make up 97 per cent of the CFA. Obviously, volunteer representation on this board is crucial to ensuring the people who truly serve our community are well looked after. Already, CFA volunteers have contacted me seeking assurances from Premier Daniel Andrews that he won’t cave in to the UFUA's demands. Our CFA volunteers give so much to serve rural and regional communities across Victoria and we rely on them in the hours of our greatest need. Daniel Andrews must guarantee volunteer positions will remain on the CFA board to ensure our local volunteers’ voices are respected and heard. Cindy McLeish, State Member for Eildon.
A BIG ‘thank you’ is extended to the Yarra Ranges Council for the impressive redevelopment of the Brisbane Bridge in Warburton. After being closed for works for two months, we believe it will soon be open again. Residents have watched the restructuring process with great interest and pleasure. In particular, I would like to acknowledge the time and effort invested by Cr Jim Child. He has been an ardent advocate on behalf of our community in our quest to have the bridge’s deterioration addressed. Although I won’t name them here, several individuals within council have been responsive, consultative and supportive during the planning process. They also deserve our community’s acknowledgement and gratitude. They know who they are. Following an accident on the bridge nearly three years ago, when a resident tripped on the uneven surface and sustained a broken collar bone, this public safety issue made the Mail’s front page news as ‘A Bridge Too Far’ (Tuesday, 12 March, 2013). The Mail’s support of our local concerns has been greatly appreciated. The process of redevelopment has been rather lengthy due to council’s need to incorporate heritage considerations. However, now we have a smartly revamped bridge and the bonus of an adjoining footbridge to ensure safe pedestrian access across the river. Well done! Thank you very much to all who have been involved in achieving this great result. Megan Wallens, Warburton
Road needs attention I READ the recent article in your paper and would like to add my comments. As a regular user of the road between Healesville and Eildon, I certainly agree the road needs attention. I think there should be guard rails on the ‘drop’ side of the road, no matter in which direction you are travelling. Also, it seems ridiculous the speed limit is 60km/h for some distance out of Healesville, and then changes to 80km/h when you hit the start of the bends about the tanks. The speed limit should be 60km/h or a maximum of 70km/h all the way from the tanks to the Black Spur Inn, not just over the spur. It is certainly not safe with an 80km/h speed limit. Also, even though there are a few slow-vehicle pull-offs, the spots where the road is wider and there is a verge for a short distance where a vehicle could pull over out of the way should have bitumen on them. At the moment, most of them just have a bit of gravel on them, and they are not safe to pull over into, especially in the wet or the dark and you have someone sitting right on your tail. If they were more solid, it would give more chances for slow vehicles to pull over. I agree with the solid line all the way over the spur, but there are a few places where the road is straight enough and the view long enough that they could perhaps have a dotted-line where vehicles could pass.

Pages from the past Healesville Guardian 8 June 1935 Yarra Flats YARRA Flats (now known as Yarra Glen) was passing through a memorable sporting era during the 1870s but was really vegan in the 1860s. If the Yarra Flats Hotel (now ably presided over by Mr Lithgow) could only speak of the wonderful tales of the early days it could unfold. This historic landmark was the rendezvous of the sporting fraternity of the district, including Lilydale and Healesville. It was also the stopping place for the old stage coach. Its stables are still standing at the rear of the building. The coaches from the city to the Flats passed through Heidelberg, Kangaroo Ground and Christmas Hills. At this time, the Blacks’ Spur had become passable for vehicular traffic and soon the route from the city through Ringwood, Lilydale and Heidelberg was taken. The change over dealt a severe blow to the old place. Mr Batt and his wife were extremely popular while in control of the old hostelry which they took over from Mr Tom Bell in the late 1860s. Mr. Bell was the original owner and licensee. It was a fine sight on hunting days to see those participating in this favourite pastime assemble on the old road in front of the hotel. The ladies sitting sidesaddle were dressed in the old fashioned riding habits with just the toe of a boot peeping out from the stirrup. Transport Deputation AT A public meeting held in the Memorial Hall last week, the following resolution was adopted: ‘That this meeting of residents of Healesville and surrounding districts urges that if any curtailment of transport should be considered, it should be in the direction of limiting road services rather than the railway.’ On the same night, Cr Dawborn communicated the resolution to the Transport Regulation Board and forwarded a petition with 400 signatories against any possible restriction of the railway

Round Up A TALENTED pianist and composer Mr Ivan Perrin has decided to settle in Warburton. As a composer he received recognition with numbers such as the ‘Apple Song’ ‘Maori Lover’s Lullaby’ and Aren’t They a Wonderful Pair’. A banquet was held in the Warburton Sanitarium and Hospital Dining room on Sunday evening to officially welcome Dr Judith Creswell and her mother and Mr and Mrs B. Pearce to the hospital. Passing of Mrs Hilditch THE many friends of Mrs Jack Hilditch were grieved to learn of her death on Thursday 27 May. Mr and Mrs Hilditch lived at East Warburton for many years and owned ‘Glenola’ guest house. It was burnt down in 1940 and since then they have lived quietly at Armadale. Mrs Hilditch was very popular throughout the district for her great generosity. In the days of horse riding, parties would ride for miles from East Warburton and always finish at Glenola for a meal and sing song around the fire. In the 1930s, Warburton Football Club always held their dinners at Glenola and wonderful evenings were spent there. In appreciation of the work done by Mr and Mrs Hilditch, the Football Club planted a flowering gum tree in the football grounds. - Contributed by Ellena Biggs

Reconciled, ready for healing By JESSE GRAHAM INDIGENOUS culture and history was celebrated, remembered and discussed last week, when more than 100 community members gathered for a special Reconciliation Week event. The Yarra Ranges Council held its annual Reconciliation Week event on Thursday 4 June, at Healesville’s Memo Hall, drawing residents, community groups and Indigenous elders for a day to explore and discuss Indigenous culture and heritage. Councillor Fiona McAllister was Master of Ceremonies at the event, which opened with a didgeridoo performance by Robert Brambett and a moving Welcome to Country by Aunty Joy Wandin Murphy. After a Wayapa Wuurrk visualisation meditation by Jamie Thomas, keynote speaker Professor Mick Dodson took the stage. Prof Dodson spoke about the harm wrought on the Indigenous community since the arrival of Europeans in 1788, and the “seeds of distrust” sown between the two communities since. He said the “impact of British intrusion”, as well as policies from successive colonial and post-colonial governments, such as those that created the stolen generations, dealt a “legacy of misunderstanding and mistrust” between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. “This legacy remains in our society today,” Prof Dodson said.
“By understanding the events of the past and the importance they have on Aboriginal people, and seeing the events through our eyes, the healing can begin.” The conversations on the day centred largely on the concept of ‘Indigenous ways of knowing’, which Yarra Ranges Indigenous Development officer Garry Detez described as “stuff based on connection.” “You’re connected to all that is, rather than the western way of knowing you’re separate from all that is,” he said. “Once you start to understand the connections you have to your natural environment, that’s when the notions of family, kinship and country come into that space, when you can connect to all that is and bringing that into the organisations around their power structures.” A discussion panel featuring HICSA’s Brooke Collins and Anne Jenkins, family violence worker Rose Sullivan, Mr Detez, Prof Dodson and Mr Thomas, then took questions from the audience. The panellists spoke about the importance of passing on Indigenous stories, culture and attitudes of respect caring, sharing, to future generations, as well as their own influences and motivations in working towards reconciliation. “It wasn’t that long ago that we weren’t allowed in the bloody town hall, let alone sitting on stage having
Professor Mick Dodson, Brooke Collins, Rose Sullivan, Jamie Thomas, Anne Jenkins, Fiona McAllister and Picture: JESSE GRAHAM Garry Detez at the Reconciliation Week event. 140125 this conversation - that motivates me. We are changing,” Prof Dodson said. Mr Thomas likened the atrocities committed against Indigenous people in the past to injuries, and said that
non-Indigenous Australians should act like doctors - by not feeling guilty for the actions of the past, but trying to help with the healing. “Don’t be guilty about the past in-
juries - you never did it - but don’t perpetuate them by ignoring it, but help heal it,” he said. For more photos from the event, visit mail.starcommunity.com.au.

Films aplenty at Warburton festival By VICTORIA STONE-MEADOWS THE 32nd annual Warburton Film Festival is on again this June, showcasing both Australian and international films. The festival, which runs for three days, starts on Friday 12 June and will screen nine feature films plus 11 short films produced by local, young and upcoming filmmakers. Both junior and senior divisions of the ‘show us your shorts’ youth film competition will be screened on Friday afternoon.
The winner of the short film competition will be presented with the ‘Golden Shorts’ reward and a $2000 prize. Yarra Ranges Film Society president John Bodin said the short films submitted were really impressive. “The shorts screened on the opening night are of a really high quality, and the makers show enormous potential,” he said. “It gives great encouragement to any person who is on the threshold of making a transition into a professional industry.”
President of Federation of Victorian Film Societies (FVFS) John Arkins will officially open the festival on Friday night. The Yarra Valley community, who share an interest in cinema in a social setting, will avail themselves of a variety of diverse films from Australia and overseas on offer over three days. Special guests director Kasmir Burgess and cinematographer Marden Dean will conduct a Q & A session after their opening night film ‘Fell’.
Mr Bodin said the festival gave a screen to young filmmakers and gave established directors a chance to exhibit films to a new audience. “We really try to highlight films we think haven’t got the recognition they deserve or may have only had a limited release,” he said. One film Mr Bodin is really excited about is Australian psychological drama ‘The Babadook.’ “It’s on late, but worth seeing and there are still plenty of tickets available.” he said.

BASED on the Disney amusement park ride, Tomorrowland is an invigorating and inspiring (if clunky) experience. Tomorrowland follows Casey (Britt Robertson), a smart teenager who discovers a wondrous alternate dimension created by Earth’s brightest minds. Tomorrowland is an incredibly entertaining film, but with notable problems in its plot and pacing. Much of the film is spent with the heroes enroute to Tomorrowland, so the long build-up may tire some viewers. The impending apocalypse is very vague and the villains are poorly explained (though Hugh Laurie, as the fatalistic Governor Nix,
does get a great monologue). The first act also has some heavy-handed dialogue about the themes of optimism and innovation. But once the talky set-up is finished and everyone goes along for the ride, Tomorrowland quickly becomes exhilarating. The cast has fantastic chemistry, and George Clooney is compelling as a bitter inventor whose hope is steadily restored. The action scenes are powerful and energetic, and the visual design is dazzling, replete with sleek ’50s-style futurism. But the best part of the film is Raffey Cassidy as the android Athena. Cassidy is wise, mature and composed beyond her years, and a dynamo in the fight scenes. This young actress has a great career ahead of her. Tomorrowland lacks certain details and needed tighter editing, but is still a beautiful and optimistic thrill-ride. - SETH HYNES

MARYSVILLE’S main street seems whole once again, after the town’s multi-million dollar hotel officially opened last April. The Vibe Hotel and Conference Centre was officially opened on Tuesday 21 April, which many believe is a symbol for Marysville reopening for business. At the official opening, Regional Development Minister Jaala Pulford and Toga Group chairman Ervin Vidor unveiled an opening plaque before a conference room full of Marysville identities, local celebrities and politicians. The 101-room hotel, which features a cafe and restaurant, has already seen 4000 guests since opening on 12 February, and the community gathered at the event which marked the next step in the reconstruction of the town. Identities such as sculptor and painter Bruno Torfs, politicians and community members filled out the conference room at the $28 million hotel for the opening, celebrating with food and drink in hand. Hotel staff member Jane Ackerman who worked in the town before the fires, summed up the opening simply: “It’s good to have something here,” she said. “It feels complete.” Murrindindi mayor Margaret Rae said the opening of the hotel sent a mes-
sage that the town had been attempting to send for years - that Marysville is open for business. “For a long time now, Marysville has been trying to describe itself to people as ‘we’re open for business’, and it’s really, really hard to do that,” Cr Rae said. “It’s hard for small businesses to be self-sustaining without some larger enterprise. “We lost all of our larger venues, this is the first of the large ones to come back.” The hotel runs down a substantial portion of Murchison Street and sits on the site of two former town icons, the Keppel Hotel and the Cumberland Hotel, which manager Phil Wilmot said was acknowledged in the new facility. “With our conference rooms, we’ve acknowledged the five major guesthouses - Cumberland, Marylands, Karinga, Keppel and Kitchener,” Mr Wilmot said. Cr Rae said that the Vibe ‘filled a hole’ in the town’s main street and that she hoped word of mouth would quickly spread to bring more tourism into the town. “The old Cumberland has been physically missing, and there hasn’t been that sort of focus point for this part of the street,” she said. “What the Vibe coming here has done is filled the hole with something of substance that is attractive, that people will come to, but also adds energy

BEST Western Yarra Valley and Oscar’s on the Yarra Restaurant are celebrating Italy’s national day, 2 June, by having Italian Food Fest Month for all this month. Chef Alessandro Rossini will return to Rovigo soon and what better way to finish his time here than to celebrate with Italian fare. They have been watching the Giro d‘Italia and now there is snow on the mountains, really getting the European feel, and next month is a wintry Christmas in July. Join them from Thursday to Sunday in June for the Italian experience. Try the handmade gnocchi, and when was the last time you had an affagato? Book a table for two or get your friends and family together for a lunch or dinner. Arrive early to enjoy a wine in the lounge by the open fire, or out on the deck with river views if the weather is kind.

New plan for memorials ROADSIDE memorial policies could be changed to ban photographs of road trauma victims under a review by Vic-Roads, and residents are being invited to have their say. VicRoads announced earlier this year that it was reviewing its roadside memorial policy, which has been in place for the last 15 years. Using an online ‘consultation hub’, Vic-Roads opened forums with prompts and questions about what people would like to see change - or stay the same - in policies about roadside memorials. In a recently released paper, VicRoads outlined the result of the first round of consultation and the proposed changes to the memorial policies. Under the suggested new policy, photos will not be permitted on memorials, “as they may be distressing to the broader community”. Offensive symbols and language, weapons and objects which may offend, such as beer cans, would not be allowed on memorials, and memorials will have to be located at least three metres from the edge of any road seal. Memorials will also not be allowed on traffic islands, attached to road infrastructure, such as light-posts or barriers, on roundabouts and should not include reflective materials, lighting, and should not pose a threat if crashed into. Flowers, under the suggested policy, would be allowed as a temporary memorial, as long as they are not wrapped in plastic or materials that may cause litter or harm to wildlife. Meanwhile, crosses will be allowed, if they are constructed from timber, neutral in colour and not be longer than 850mm long - 600mm out of the ground - or wider than 400mm. Plaques will be acceptable, but must not be attached to road infrastructure or utility poles, and should not be larger than 200mm by 200mm. The paper also lists a ‘transitional timeframe principle’, where memorials may be established with limited restrictions in the short-term, but will be made ‘discreet’ over time, and after 13 months may be relocated or removed. The measures were formulated by a working group, which included representative of some councils, Road Trauma
Support Services Victoria, Road Trauma Families Victoria, Victoria Police, Transport Accident Commission (TAC), Monash University Accident Research Centre and VicRoads. The group was also informed by VicRoads’ online consultation hub, which had 4467 visitors during the 29 March 26 April consultation period. However, of those visitors, 326 contributed comments, and 231 actively joined the discussion forums on memorials. The participants were split down the middle on whether memorials should have a consistent design, with half stating that memorials should be “unique and personal to support people grieving”, and the other half wanting consistent appearance to reduce driver distraction or upsetting those linked to the victims. Some of the participants suggested non-religious standard markers, such as those used in South Australia. A VicRoads survey of 178 people found 63 per cent of respondents were in favour of roadside memorials to remember loved ones, and that 61 per cent said memorials encouraged safer driving. However, 54 per cent said that memorials could be distracting for drivers and 53 per cent supported a consistent look for memorials. The Mail contacted VicRoads with questions about the proposed changes, including whether public comments would shape or change some of the proposals. A spokesperson said the paper proposed guidelines and principles for further feedback. “It is not a final policy position,” the spokesperson said. The full paper is available at consult. vicroads.vic.gov.au/roadside-memorial, and residents are still able to comment on the paper and its proposals. After the latest consultation stage, the new Roadside Memorial Policy will be submitted to VicRoads’ senior leaders for approval - if approved, the new policy will be in place in the second half of the year. What do you think of the proposed changes to the Roadside Memorials Policy? Do you, or someone you know, maintain a memorial for a loved one? Write a letter to the editor at editor@mailnewsgroup. com.au or 244 Maroondah Highway, Healesville.
Flowers on memorials will be acceptable in some circumstances. 137863

SNOW season has come at last, with Lake Mountain Alpine Resort opening its gates for its first weekend of winter, bringing eager visitors from around the state. Crowds of visitors flocked to the mountain’s opening day on Saturday 6 June, for an opening weekend that included toboggan runs, snow-shoe trails and cross-country skiing. Children were well catered
for, with the resort expanding its Snowman’s Village and running activities such as a flying fox and outdoor laser skirmishes. Resort manager Scott Gamble said there was “something for everyone” at the resort, and that going to the snow didn’t have to mean strapping on skis and taking on snow sports. “New snow-shoe trails are a perfect introduction to snow sports and suitable for children
and adults,” Mr Gamble said. “There are short trails or allday hikes, and is a great way for anyone to experience the beauty of our renowned cross-country trails without having to ski.” The resort features 40 kilometres of snow trails, and this year opened its Fischer Nordic Demo Centre, where budding skiers can learn skills before hitting the slopes.

By JAMIE STRUDLEY THE school cross-country championship season is in full swing. Yarra Ranges Athletics’ young athletes prepared for the coming week with some sensational efforts at the latest round of the cross-country season.

Young guns drive the game to interleague
Wesburn’s Ben Bourke has plenty of mates in the under-12s helping him out as he drives the ball forward. 140157
By KATH GANNAWAY THE most promising young football talent from around the Yarra Valley and the Dandenong Ranges headed south over the Queen’s Birthday Holiday weekend to represent the DRJFL in the annual interleague competition. The under-11s, under-12s and under-13s players - representing 12 clubs - played in the Price-Purdon Academy Goodwill Youth Program on Sunday in sunny but chilling conditions at Casey Fields. Under-13s coach, Yarra Glen’s Brad Hall said the competition was an opportunity for the players to compete against kids of the same age level, often with kids they went to school with but who played for different clubs, and to experience different game styles. “Everyone gets the chance to get good game time and play in different positions. “It’s about football development, and it’s not a winning and losing thing, there’s still a strong element of participation as well as competitiveness.” Best-on-ground awards went to Patrick Huynh from Wesburn in the under-11s, Jude Hay from Woori Yallock in the under-12s and Yarra Glen’s Harrison Keeling in the under13s. DRJFL representative teams in the under-14s, under-15s, under-16s and under17s played on Saturday and Monday in the Subway Dandenong Junior Carnival against South East Juniors, Frankston District and Mornington Peninsula.

Wandin in convincing win By JUDY ORREN DIVISION 1 SENIORS Wandin 23.12 (150) d Belgrave 16.12 (108) WANDIN continues to show its dominance after another convincing win, this time over Belgrave. Wandin had a good first half and set up its win with a 7-goal-to-1 second quarter to go into halftime with a 48-point lead. The second half was a real shoot out, and Belgrave did take it right up to league leaders. The third term saw both sides slot seven goals in what was a free-flowing, highstandard term. The last quarter saw Belgrave outscore Wandin 5 goals to 4, but it was Wandin’s dominance early in the game which produced their sizeable lead, and it was always going to be too tough to haul in. Best: Wandin - J. Taylor (1 goal), B. Chapman (1 goal), B. Harvey (1 goal) Belgrave - B. Dadswell (2 goals), E. Clasby (4 goals), P. Gough (1 goal)
Woori Yallock 17.11 (113) d Warburton Millgrove 11.11 (77) This was a tight affair early with Woori leading by just three points at the first break. They broke the game open somewhat in the second term, booting 4 goals to 1 and Woori’s lead at the half was 21 points. The third term saw just the three goals scored, but they all went Woori’s way, and their three-quarter time lead was out to a sizeable 38 points. The last quarter was a goal feast as both sides played free-flowing, hard-running football. There were 14 goals scored in an entertaining term with both sides booting seven goals, which saw Woori come away with a handy sixgoal victory. Woori Yallock best players: T. Gibson (7 goals), Z. Monkhorst (2 goals), S. Kennedy Warburton Millgrove best players: J. Iacono, L. Barnard, T. Walker
Monbulk 19.19 (133) d Yarra Glen 6.8 (44) For the first half of this clash, Yarra Glen was reasonably competitive, but Monbulk just had the better transition of play and held a 29-point lead at the main break. Monbulk really hit its stride in the third as Yarra Glen started to look a little flat-footed. They booted 7 goals to 1 to be in complete control at the final change, leading by 56 points. The last term was all Monbulk, and it really should have won by more. In the end, they finished the day booting 4.9 in the last, while Yarra Glen could only manage one behind. Best: Monbulk - J. Major, K. Gray (2 goals), T. Wragg Yarra Glen - B. Ashton, M. Ashton, J. Baughan
Olinda Ferny Creek 12.7 (79) d Mount Evelyn 10.9 (69) Despite the final margin being just 10 points, Olinda did control the game for the most part. The first term was an even tussle with Olinda leading by just four points. The second term was where Olinda got its run going, and it booted 6 goals to 2 to lead by 29 points at the main break. Mount Evelyn hit back pretty hard in the third and played a more accountable game. They scored 3 goals to 1 and was only 17 points in arrears at the last break. Mount Evelyn tried hard in the last and kept coming, but Olinda was patient and poised when it mattered to come away with an important four points. Best: Olinda Ferny Creek - K. Currie, D. Rohrmann, O. Millwood (3 goals) Mount Evelyn - R. Cowan (1 goal), B. Doyle, M. Holly (1 goal)
Upwey Tecoma 15.13 (103) d Healesville 12.12 (84) This was a great clash with Upwey not able to shake Healesville off until late into the last. Healesville led at the first change by just one goal and increased that lead to 11 points at half-time. The third quarter was a dire battle with both sides throwing their bodies on the line. Upwey booted 3 goals to 2 for the quarter and Healesville’s lead was cut to just three points at the three-quarter time break. The last quarter saw Upwey’s experience shine out as they controlled the tempo of the game. With ball in hand, they booted 5 goals to 1 to finish the day off in style and come away with a very good 19-point victory. Best: Upwey Tecoma - N. Waterman, L. Beacom, D. Devers Healesville - C. Adams (2 goals), D. Plozza (1 goal), A. Miller
DIVISION 2 SENIORS Yarra Junction 11.8 (74) drew with Alexandra 11.8 (74) Both sides haven’t had the best season as Junction sit second bottom on the ladder, while Alexandra sits on the bottom. However, they put on a nail-biting contest from start to finish. Despite both teams being a bit disappointed, the clash ended in a draw, it was probably a just result. Junction led by just eight points at quarter time, but Alexandra turned that deficit into a three-point lead by half-time. The third term went goal-for-goal with three goals each being slotted. Alexandra led by just the one point at the final change. The last quarter was a great hard contested battle, goals were hard to come by as both defences work tirelessly. The quarter produced two goals apiece and come final siren, scores were all tied up as both sides walked off wondering what else could have been done. Best: Yarra Junction - M. Hottes, C. Spaulding, T. Hall Alexandra - S. Heveren, B. Cooper (1 goal), B. McDonald (3 goals)
Gembrook Cockatoo 9.9 (63) d Yea 8.10 (58) Gembrook snuck home in a close battle over Yea and now sit one game clear in fourth spot. Yea looked to have more run in the first half and went into half-time with a 15-point lead, thanks to a 4 goal to 1 second term. Gembrook’s defence in the third was superb as they held Yea scoreless while slotting through three majors of their own to take a seven-point lead going into three-quarter time. The last quarter was a great contest, both sides hit every contest at 100 per cent with the game in the balance right up to the final siren. Both sides booted three goals for the quarter, but it was Gembrook that held on to win by just five points after a classic encounter. Best: Gembrook Cockatoo - T. Whytcross (1 goal), M. Quinn, T. Scott Yea - P. Evans (2 goals), J. Crowe (2 goals), E. Neilson (2 goals)
Emerald 13.6 (84) d Seville 9.13 (67) Emerald came away with a 17-point victory, but had to work pretty hard throughout to hold off a determined Seville. Seville led by four points at the first change but Emerald turned that deficit into a 19-point lead at half-time after a pretty good 5-goal-to-1 quarter. The second half was a very even contest, with both sides scoring six goals apiece. As hard as Seville battled, they just couldn’t make inroads into Emerald’s lead. Emerald finally came away not convincing winners,
Pictured in a recent senior match is Bryce Penwill (Seville) tackling Nathan Moody (Powelltown). but winners nonetheless. Best: Emerald - M. Dompietro (1 goal), M. Dompietro, M. Livermore Seville - R. Davis (1 goal), S. Senior (1 goal), D. Groen
Thornton Eildon 9.15 (69) d Kinglake 5.4 (34) Thornton has now played what were two unbeaten sides in a row, and has come out on top in both games. First it was Emerald, and now has dealt Kinglake its first loss of the season with a dominant second-half performance. Kinglake did lead this clash at half-time by eight points in what was a low-scoring first two quarters, with scores at 4.2 (26) to 2.6 (18). The second half was where Thornton Eildon shone. They stifled Kinglake’s run and was able to force turnovers and make it pay on the scoreboard. They booted 4 goals to 1 in the third to grab an 11-point lead at the last change. The last quarter was more of the same. In fact, Thornton should have won by more than its eventual 35-point margin as they finished the day, scoring 4.7 to just 1 to win convincingly and put its hand up as a genuine premiership threat. Best: Thornton-Eildon - M. Gower, D. Creed, L. Sharp Kinglake - J. Butterworth, B. Brown (1 goal), T. Thone-Kain Powelltown: Bye
