“WE ALL stand on sacred ground.” The theme for this year’s NAIDOC Week was a significant one for Healesville Indigenous Community Services Association (HICSA) chairperson, Doseena Fergie. Ms Fergie, speaking to the Mail at HICSA’s NAIDOC Week event on Wednesday, said that “place” was a concept central to Indigenous culture, and this year’s theme reflected that. “It’s especially significant for all Aboriginal people, because it brings the focus back down to this land that people of the first nations would be acknowledged as being part of,” she said. “And it’s not just ‘Earth’, it had important significance, culturally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.” The event featured events for children, including basket-weaving and face-painting, and culminated in the official unveiling of HICSA’s new Aunty Dot Peters Multi-Purpose Room. Ms Fergie said the room was named after Aunty Dot for her “long-standing commitment” to her community and to HICSA. The unveiling started with a Welcome to Country from Uncle Allan Wandin, who paid tribute to elders past and present, and reflected on the NAIDOC theme. “I’ve got to acknowledge the old fellas - they had it pretty hard back in the old days,” Uncle Allan said. “But we are part of that and my culture, blackfellas culture, is still growing. “The theme, ‘We all stand on sacred ground’, means to me that, over the years - and even today - there has been a lot of blood and tears that have fallen on sacred ground.” Uncle Allan and Ms Fergie both said that the community and the Belonging Place near HICSA’s building were both healing areas, and places where people could meet and “yarn.” Building the multi-purpose room drew many different community mem-

CELEBRATE

THE

VICTORIAN Deputy Premier James Merlino last Saturday officially opened the Outdoor Classroom at the Yellingbo Nature Conservation Reserve. Designed as an education space for primary school-aged children, the amphitheatre style design will be a welcome addition to the region. Interestingly, the finished product was built partly out of rubbish collected from around the region. The Outdoor Classroom was made possible from both a government grant and the work of the Friends of the Helmeted Honeyeater community group. About 50 people attended the opening. Mail photographer GREG CARRICK was there and captured some of the action.

Plan back at council By JESSE GRAHAM

Preschool marks gold By JESSE GRAHAM YARRA Glen Preschool students, past, present and future are being called on to come to a special 50th birthday open day later this month. The open day, to be held on Saturday 25 July, will feature a display of photos of every class to come through the preschool in the last 50 years, according to teacher Belinda Hudson. “We’ve got face painting, we’re doing our normal enrolment process for children next year and in the future

and have displays up around the room, regarding all of the children that have come through,” she said. “There’re a lot of photos that don’t have children’s names added to them, so we’re hoping some past students and teachers come in and add names to them.” Ms Hudson said the preschool had a high rate of “repeat offenders”, in former students sending their own children to the preschool later in their life. “We’ve got about eight families at the preschool at the moment who were

former students themselves, which is great to see.” A teacher for the last 15 years, Ms Hudson said the preschool’s 40th birthday had been well-attended by families and former students, and that she was hoping the 50th would be even bigger. The Yarra Glen Preschool open day and 50th birthday celebration will be held from 9am-noon on Saturday 25 July, at Anzac Avenue in Yarra Glen. For more information, call 9730 1490.

Facelift for chamber website By JESSE GRAHAM A REVAMPED Healesville Chamber of Commerce website will be to the world what the Rotary community directory is to Healesvillians, according to website developer John Newell. Mr Newell made a presentation to a group of chamber members on Wednesday 8 July at Habitat1 in Healesville, outlining the new website and detailing how it would function once up-and-running in about two weeks. Noting that the old website was outdated and hard to use, chamber secretary Garry Christie said the new incarnation of the site would be the “portal for all information communications coming in and out of the Yarra Valley.” Referencing the Rotary Club of Healesville Community Directory, which contains contact details for any business needed in Healesville and its surrounds, Mr Newell said he wanted the website to be as useful as the directory was to those out of town.

When finished, businesses will have pages dedicated to their business with information, contact details, maps and a live-feed that can have documents and photographs added instantly by business owners. “A website is like an animal - don’t feed it and it will die,” Mr Newell said. Some members of the chamber, however, seemed agitated at an apparent miscommunication, thinking they would be shown a fully-finished website, rather than a preview of some of the pages. But Mr Newell said he would be gathering information from all business owners and incorporating them for the website to be launched shortly. Mr Christie said the website would “bring the chamber up-to-date”, as far as its web presence, and would help to connect tourists and visitors with dining, accommodation and other businesses. This statement was echoed by Habitat1 Co Shared Workspace and Herd Bar owners, John Knoll and Sean Lee, who gave speeches to the chamber members

about their new business, set to open later this month. Mr Knoll compared the Yarra Valley to the Napa Valley’s wine region, before it became over-developed, and said the area should “kick Daylesford’s butt” in regards to tourist traffic. Graphic designer and artist Paul Sonsie also gave a speech on the night, about his intricate artwork on the walls of the new business. Michael de Oleveira and Fred de Munk from the Healesville Music Festival then spoke, and appealed for support from the businesses for the event, which will be held from 13-15 November. Mr de Oleveira and Mr de Munk said they wanted businesses to help bring a “festival feeling” to the town over the weekend, and outlined some of the key events, including a bush dance at the Memorial Hall. For more information on the festival, visit www.healesvillemusicfestival.com. au.

In brief Foal on the run HAVE you seen this foal? Cara, a nine-month-old foal, has been reported missing from a Healesville-Kooweerup Road property in Healesville. Her distressed owner Kate Paton said she noticed the horse missing on Wednesday 8 July, when she did not answer her owner’s calls. Since then, Kate has contacted neighbours, residents and media outlets to help search for the missing horse. Cara is described as dark brown, with black legs and a white blaze across her face - she is friendly and responds to her name being called and to whistles. Anyone with information on the missing horse is asked to contact Kate Paton immediately on 5962 1439.

Landcruiser stolen and destroyed WITNESSES are being sought by police after a four wheel drive was stolen from a Badger Creek property earlier this month, only to be found destroyed in Toolangi. Between 7pm and 11pm on Sat-

urday 4 July, burglars broke into a property on Wallaby Way in Badger Creek, stealing the keys to a green Toyota Landcruiser. The vehicle was also stolen from the property, according to Yarra Ranges Crime Investigation Unit (CIU) Detective Sergeant Pat Barrow, who said it was later found burnt out in Klondyke Road, Toolangi. Anyone with information on the incident, or who may have seen any suspicious activity, is asked to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Burglary charges laid A LILYDALE man will face court next month after he was arrested in relation to a burglary last Friday. Yarra Ranges Crime Investigation Unit (CIU) Detective Sergeant Pat Barrow said on Friday 10 July police arrested a 37-year-old Lilydale man. The man was arrested for burglary, theft, handling stolen goods and committing indictable offences while on bail, in relation to a burglary in Mooroolbark in April. Det Sgt Barrow said the man was charged and bailed, and will appear at Ringwood Magistrates’ Court on 20 August.

A CONTROVERSIAL application for Healesville’s former sawmill site will be back before the Yarra Ranges Council later this year, with public consultation set to open shortly. Yarra Ranges Council’s Acting Director of Planning, Building and Health, Kim Marriott, confirmed that an application had been lodged with the council for the former sawmill site at the entrance to town. However, Ms Marriott noted that the application was incomplete. “The applicant has until the end of July to provide this to council,” she said. “Once the necessary information has been received, the application will be put to public notification. “This will provide an opportunity for the community to review the plans and associated documents and make submissions if they choose to do so before it goes to council.” The sawmill site previously had an application for an epicurean centre, a service station, function centre, brewery and fast food facilities approved by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) after being voted down by Yarra

Ranges councillors in 2013. Other media outlets have reported that the new application will feature an 80-room hotel - a feature removed from the initial application - and a community market. Healesville Chamber of Commerce secretary, Garry Christie, said he was personally divided on the matter, having fought his own battle for an application for extended opening hours at his business. “I’ve got two schools of thought, unfortunately,” he said He said that, on one hand, he was supportive of businesses putting applications forward as long as their goals were within their permitted use under the planning scheme. “On the other hand, given it’s a sensitive location and it’s the entrance to the town, whatever goes there needs to be appropriate and fit in with the town’s history and future growth,” he said. The Mail attempted to contact the developer for the sawmill site application with questions about the new application and its features, but did not receive a response. The Yarra Ranges Council has not announced when a consultation period may open for the application.

However, it is possible that through talking about the spine, being monitored, paying attention to the vulnerability of the low back, and learning the concept of back care, movement, and spinal awareness, children may have a strategy that can be used to control the influence of factors that increase the risk of a low back pain eventâ&#x20AC;&#x153;. If your child experiences back pain that you think would improve with exercises and spine education, or you would like them to be assessed for this, then making the decision to consult a physiotherapist could turn out to be a very wise choice.

Community Diary

By KATH GANNAWAY HODDLES Creek Red Cross Unit member Florence Peters has wonderful stories to tell of her involvement with the unit. As an inaugural member of the unit that was formed in 1969, she has no doubt about the good the unit has achieved, both locally and internationally, over more than 45 years. Numbers have gone up and down over the years, and now is one of those times when they need some help. A lot of the members are getting up in years, and some fresh, young blood would ensure the unit is able to continue its work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We only had about nine people to start with, but we built it up and have been involved in providing help to people in need, as well as helping out at disasters, including bushfires,â&#x20AC;? Florence said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the firemen would come in from the fires, we used to pull their socks off for them and give them fresh clothing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we would have made a hundred million sandwiches to feed them over the years.â&#x20AC;? Unit member Connie Grogan said the role of the Hoddles Creek unit was mostly fundraising now to support Red Cross projects here and overseas.

LBP in children can be prevented, the cycle of recurring LBP episodes may be delayed and the prevalence of adult occurrence may be decreased. The authors found that children in the daily exercise group experienced less severe first episodes of LBP, longer time to the onset of the first episode, and lower numbers of reports of LBP episodes. Despite declining adherence to exercise, both groups experienced a reduction in reported LBP episodes. From the authors, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is unlikely that the four exercises alone were sufficient to have a physiological effectâ&#x20AC;?.

schools during 2011. They found that children who were taught about spine health and were instructed in four spinal exercises for daily practice, reported significantly fewer episodes of LBP than children who received spine health education alone. Both groups of children received education about back awareness and were taught strategies thought to keep the spine healthy. In addition, one group was taught four daily exercises designed to encourage movement of the lumbar spine. The researchers hypothesised that if

RECENT study in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Physical Therapyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (PTJ), the monthly scientific journal of the American Physical Therapy Association, caught my attention. It found that a program of regular exercise and education appears to reduce low back pain (LBP) episodes in children aged 8 to 11 years. More children appear to be presenting with LBP to health practitioners every year with a non-pathological (i.e. no injury or underlying disease) cause. Perhaps, it is the relatively recent phenomena that parents will take their child to the physio for LBP.

Council’s no-cost tip solution By JESSE GRAHAM A PERMANENT site to drop off paints, lightbulbs and batteries in Coldstream will help to deter would-be rubbish dumpers, according to a Yarra Ranges Council executive officer. A new Detox site at Coldstream Waste Transfer Station opened on Wednesday 1 July, offering a permanent area where residents can drop off paint, household batteries and compact fluorescent lightbulbs. In a visit to the site on Tuesday 7 July, Yarra Ranges Council waste management executive officer Graham Brew said the drop off would help residents to dispose of materials that were previously costly to bring in. “Paints aren’t cheap to get rid of,” he said. “It’s a dollar per litre, (but) if you walk in with a four-litre tin with only one litre of paint in it, they’re not going to open it and measure it. “But now you can drop it off for free.” The council said it had advocated to Sustainability Victoria for the site, one of 30 across the state that are being funded by the Victorian EPA Landfill Levy. Both Mr Brew and Knox Transfer Station general manager Garry Higgs said the no-cost drop-off would help to deter would-be dumpers. Mr Higgs said that people often hid paint tins in their other rubbish when taking items to transfer stations, creating more work for employees who either had to clean spilt paint or sort it out before reaching landfill sites, due to its chemical content. “Paint and tyres, because they

Michael Strickland, Graham Brew and Garry Higgs, right, with Yarra Ranges mayor Maria McCarthy at the permanent drop-off Picture: JESSE GRAHAM site in Coldstream. 141463 have to pay extra for those, that is always the common thing you find dumped around the back,” he said. “That (the free drop-off point) eliminates a lot of that problem.” Mr Brew said that, with the other closest site in Monash, it would service a wide catchment area. “What SV (Sustainability Victoria) tried to do is capture a catchment at a central point - for Yarra Ranges, it’s here.” “We’ll have a lot of people coming from Maroondah.” Yarra Ranges mayor Maria McCarthy praised the initiative while visiting the waste transfer station last week. “It’s a great idea, a great ser-

vice, a great initiative and I’m really pleased that these gentlemen, this company provides this service to our residents free of charge,” she said. Solvents, poisons, cleaning products, car care products and fertiliser are not collected at the Detox site, but can be disposed of at the council’s annual mobile Detox Your Home collection on Saturday 29 August. Residents must register for the mobile service at www.sustainability.vic.gov.au/detoxyourhome or by calling 1300 363 744. The permanent Detox drop-off service is only offered at the Coldstream Waste Transfer Station.

This 11 part series

will take an insightful look at relevant Bible prophecies and topics, providing answers to some of the big questions of life. Each seminar includes a light healthy meal and some interactive discussion.

A WESBURN resident is calling on Yarra Ranges Council to enforce by-laws that ban burning off in June and July in residential bushland areas. The restrictions, under council’s Open Air Burning Local Law, were brought in to help minimise the health and amenity impacts of smoke. Residents in rural zones can still burn for fire prevention purposes in June and July, but not on Sundays, smog alert and total fire ban days. Wesburn resident Jackie Murphy said burning off in the Upper Yarra on private property and on Crown Land was blanketing the valley with smoke, despite the laws, which, she says, are not being adequately enforced. Ms Murphy said she reported a fire in the national park at the end of Dee Road, Wesburn, to Yarra Ranges Council on 14 June, but despite the report it was still burning early into the evening. She said when she reported another burn-off in a local street in Wesburn, she was asked whether she had asked the property owners to put the fire out. On a drive down the line that same day, Ms Murphy said people were burning off in Coldstream, East Seville, near Healesville and in the Warramate Hills. In emails responding to Ms Murphy’s concerns, dated 16 June, Peter Wright, Health and Local Laws executive officer said a ranger had, in fact, attended the reported national park fire, but that it appeared to be about a kilometre into the park. Mr Wright said attempts to contact the Department of Environment Land

Water and Planning on the day were unsuccessful and that they had been unable to establish who was responsible for the fire. As council doesn’t have jurisdiction over State Government land, he said fires in the state park should be reported to DELWP. In relation to the other Wesburn fire, Mr Wright said their ranger had, in fact, made direct contact with the resident on the Sunday afternoon of the report and that the fire was put out. “The resident claimed not to know about the restrictions and has now been educated,’ he advised Ms Murphy. Mr Wright said the council placed vinyl banners on their banner poles advertising the June/July bans, and had included information in their May/June ‘local’ publications. Residential Bushland Zone includes all or part of the following areas; Belgrave, Belgrave Heights, Belgrave South, Coldstream, East Warburton, Ferny Creek, Healesville, Kalorama, Kallista, Launching Place, Menzies Creek, Millgrove, Monbulk, Montrose, Mt Dandenong, Mount Evelyn, Olinda, Powelltown, Sassafras, Selby, Seville, Seville East, Sherbrooke, Tecoma, Upwey, Wandin North, Warburton, Wesburn, Woori Yallock, Yarra Glen and Yarra Junction. For information on winter burning laws visit www.yarraranges.vic.gov.au . The Mail asked Yarra Ranges Council for a formal response to Ms Murphy’s concerns, but did not receive one before deadline.

Beautiful period drama Far From the Madding Crowd (M) Starring: Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts, Michael Sheen, Thomas Sturridge

1191420-LB29-15

MINIONS

With each show being performed over two sets and without a support, the shows will also satisfy his fans need for some of his back catalogue gems, along with the new. The combination of such an intimate, largely unexposed venue, in a beautiful setting by the Yarra River, with the music and presence of one of Australia’s great musicians, could make for a rare, unforgettable music experience. Tickets are on sale through Mostix or at The Who Club. Phone Frederick Abela on 0427 161 264.

FAR from the Madding Crowd is a heart-breakingly beautiful period drama adapted from the classic Thomas Hardy novel. In 1870s rural England, Bathsheba Everdeen (Carey Mulligan) is an independent woman in charge of a prosperous farm, but finds herself courted by three different suitors: the humble shepherd Gabriel (Matthias Schoenaerts), the middle-aged aristocrat Mr Boldwood (Michael Sheen) and

the brash yet handsome Sergeant Troy (Thomas Sturridge). Danish Director Thomas Vinterberg is gifted at crafting steady, visually stunning films driven by profound, shattering emotion - his Oscar-nominated 2012 film The Hunt is one of the most satisfyingly devastating films you will ever see. This film is no exception. Translating the book’s blend of warmth and bleakness to the screen, Far From the Madding Crowd is a solemnly moving tale of Bathsheba (despite her confident success) becoming more worldly. Your heart aches for Bathsheba as she weathers misfortune, grapples with society’s

expectations of her, deals with her suitors’ unwanted attention and navigates her own complicated feelings for them - including her close (yet adversarial) friendship with Gabriel. The sterling cast is excellent, but Mulligan is phenomenal in a dignified, quietly powerful performance that will almost certainly earn her the Best Actress Oscar next year. For that matter, this film tells a better, more layered story of femininity than most other mainstream movies today. Far From the Madding Crowd is a film of incredible nuance and elegant sadness.

Getting festive in July CHRISTMAS in December for visitors to the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges is likely to be seafood and salad, great wines, and luscious desserts. But in winter ... it’s all about traditional fare. Hot roasts and gravy with lots of vegetables. Ham off the bone, turkey, apple sauce, or cranberry and steaming plum pudding with brandy custard. As the mercury plummets and the winter mists swirl around the tall trees or cloak the valleys, the atmosphere is set and appetites primed for the sort of Christmas fare that you really just can’t enjoy in December.

Winter in July has become increasingly popular over the years. There are several restaurants throughout the region that put up the tinsel, dust off the Christmas CDs and prime the log fires to re-create the sort of Christmas of northern hemisphere Christmas cards and movies that aren’t really quite right in December. Depending on the venue, there might be a visit from Santa for the kids, a Kris Kringle (or you can arrange your own). If you are planning a winter weekend getaway, why not incorporate a traditional Christmas lunch or dinner

... and who knows, you might even see a bit of snow on the hills while you’re digging into your plum pudding. Local tourist information centres will be able to provide details of restaurants that have Christmas in July menus. Be sure to book early, particularly for groups, but don’t be afraid to be a bit spontaneous if you’re just travelling through. Celebrating the festive season can be a great way to warm up to winter in the villages either side of the Great Dividing Range.

Facing up to the guilt By KATH GANNAWAY CONSEQUENCES, repercussions and guilt; all part of the conversation around road death, and injury. You can overthink the ‘what ifs’, but with the Avonsleigh tragedy still so raw, and a local P-plater caught doing nearly 40 kilometres over the limit just days after in Yarra Junction, you can’t help but raise the question. How would he have felt if he’d killed his mates? How would his parents have felt? How would his mates’ parents and friends have felt? What if he’d killed some other innocent family? How would the friend he was helping out feel? He was going to pick up a spare key to take back to the friend who had locked his keys in his car. Talking with Warburton police officer, Senior Constable Rob Firns, who put the driver off the road for six months, and Sgt Tom Wilkinson who has been instrumental in running the Teenage Road Information Program (TRIP) in Upper Yarra, it came around to how do you get that message across about the ripple of grief that comes with a fatality. As an adult you think about that. I ‘dodged a bullet’ at the Toolebewong-Healesville Kooweerup intersection in Healesville that same weekend. I’d like to think I did all the right things – looked right, looked left, right again. Just didn’t see the car, invisible behind the big 4WD indicating to turn into Toolebewong until he pulled out to overtake. I was lucky I had another pair of eyes to scream a warning. It would have been one of those ‘horror smashes’ that newspapers report on. It’s 100k on that stretch. My instinctive reaction was relief, and thanks. My second was how awful that would have been for my grandson.

I hadn’t intended to go that way, but decided to go via Seville on my way to Lilydale to watch him play football. It’s completely irrational, but I know him and I know how he would have felt. It’s part of the ‘what if’s’ that people who are left behind have to grapple with, and I’m so grateful that I didn’t put someone I love so much in that position. The 18-year-old doing 119 in the 80 zone along Settlement Road in Yarra Junction. It was wet. He had two friends in the car. It’s a narrow road with narrow shoulders, and he hasn’t had his licence for long. He was doing a friend a favour. Not much of a favour if you kill yourself and other friends in the process. Surely, he couldn’t have missed all the grief and loss, and regret of that week. So, was he some sort of callous dickhead? The sort of kid that you hear people say “...he’ll end up killing himself or someone else”? Apparently not. He’s not known to the local police; no particular reason to think he wasn’t a decent kid. So, what’s going on? “They just think they’re invincible,” Sgt Wilkinson says. OK. That’s probably true, but, under the circumstances, it’s not really enough. And, it’s not fair to expect police to provide the answers, but they try. “It’s a complete lack of consideration for potential consequences,” Sgt Wilkinson adds. “And that’s what we’re continually striving to improve; for them as individuals (to be) thinking about what those consequences may be.” “That’s where education and enforcement works hand in hand,” adds Sen Const Firns, linking the penalties handed out with the efforts police, CFA and SES have put into trying to

How they'd feel. 141636 drill that message home through programs like TRIP. I doubt many 18-year-olds will be reading this (more than the standard 160 character text) but if there are any parents out there who are asking

themselves the same questions Sgt Wilkinson and Sen Const Firns have a suggestion. It’s an appeal really, from two people who have seen the crushing grief and suffering that parents endure when their children die in a car crash.

“Perhaps you could say ... we encourage all parents to talk to their children about consequences and the consequences to them if they lost a son or daughter. “How would they feel?”

Print does the job on employment

HEALESVILLE residents are being encouraged to dig deep and help out wounded, returned Australian soldiers. Charity organisation Walking Wounded will be holding a fund-raising event at Queens Park Sound Shell on Saturday, August 1, at 2.30pm as part of its nationwide project, Traverse of Australia. This project will see a team walk 65 kilometres per day for 65 days, followed by a kayak across Bass Strait, starting at Cape York in Queensland and finishing up at South East Cape in Tasmania. The team is due to reach Healesville on August 1. The charity aims to help veterans and families of sol-

Newspapers remain a popular medium for job hunters searching for their next role despite the wide choice of domestic and international alternatives online. Emma data shows 1.4 million job seekers use print newspapers each month. Job seekers from certain industries are more likely to use print newspapers for job hunting. Those looking for work in public administration are 46 percent more likely to use print newspaper’s employment sections with similar results for mining (44 percent), and teachers and lecturers (27 percent) more likely to use print. Businesses looking to find the right candidate should employ print newspapers as part of their search, or risk missing out on a large pool of potential candidates.

diers who did not make it back from war. They help rebuild lives through meaningful employment, networking, counselling and mentoring programs. Founder and chief executive officer, Brian Freeman, who is also a veteran, is inviting locals to get involved. “During the traverse, we’ll travel through 89 cities and towns,” he said. “Our support teams, fundraisers and merchandise vehicles will visit and spend time in every city and town we pass through. “At all larger towns and cities, we’re inviting people to join us for the final 20, 10, 5 or 2km run and/or walk into town.”

Walking Wounded is aiming to raise $2 million, which will go towards suicide prevention and intervention, counselling and employment guidance. This will help with the recovery, and physical and psychological impairment, of returned Australian soldiers. Mr Freeman said the project would test out those involved. “The journey will arguably be the greatest human endurance ever carried out,” Mr Freeman said. “Our aim is to make a grand and lasting difference to the lives of contemporary veterans while honouring those people who made supreme sacrifice.” The tribute to the Anzacs started at Mount Everest Base Camp on 2 April this year.

WITH the fanfare of the Anzac Centenary now done and dusted, it can be easily forgotten that our recently returned soldiers continue to fight many battles. Not just in conflict. One organisation that is doing their best to help our Diggers is Walking Wounded. The charity group is part of the fund-raising effort, Traverse of Australia, which will soon hit the Yarra Ranges region. In an effort to raise $2 million for wounded returned soldiers, Walking Wounded is in the midst of a monumental seven-month, multi-continent endurance event to raise vital funds and awareness.

The team comprises Walking Wounded members, and wounded soldiers, as well as parents of fallen soldiers. The Traverse of Australia, which started at Cape York, takes in Mount Everest, Gallipoli, the northern and southern tips of Australia, as well as southern Tasmania (including kayaking across Bass Strait). On 1 August, the group will arrive in Healesville for a fundraising event at the Queens Park Sound Shell on Saturday, 1 August, at 2.30pm. To help celebrate the occasion, organisers are inviting those in the region to join them for the final 20, 10, 5 or 2km, either as a run or a walk. Wouldn’t it be fantastic to

think you could help out our returned soldiers. The charity is founded over the reality that, for many soldiers, the war may be over, but the battle continues. They aim to help those who are unsure of their future, feeling disconnected from society and who are often reluctant to seek help. Just for a second, imagine what it would be like to return home from conflict not only a changed person, but missing a limb. Then, needing to pick up your life. Sounds far-fetched, but the stark reality is that many returned Australian soldiers face such challenges. Let’s help out these guys.

Maffett, General Manager of Rapid Ascent. “It’s going to be an extremely tough race as competitors will need to push their pain barrier to reach the summit in good time.” “There’s one section in particular where the runners and cyclists share the road for about 800m; it’s a good opportunity to eye up your rivals and really race that final section to the summit,” he said.

Mt Donna Buang Sky Race gives runners a 1098m vertical ascent over just 8km meaning it’s short, sharp and very steep. The course starts in Warburton by going up Martyr Road, Australia’s steepest residential street that has an average gradient of 20 per cent and with 31 per cent on the steepest stretch. Cyclists will be riding up the sealed road to ascend 1077m throughout their tough 17.8km race. Starting in Warburton, riders will get up to speed with 800m of flat riding before ‘The Donna’ climb starts in earnest where the road kicks up to a moderate five per cent gradient that remains fairly consistent as it climbs up through the magnificent temperate rainforest. In the final section to the summit, the road kicks up to a 10 per cent gradient. The trail runners join the cyclists for an 800m stretch along the road at the 13.5km point (just after the 5.6km point in the run course),

A UNIQUE new event that pitches trail runners and cyclists against each other, and against one of the most notable climbs in Australia, Mt Donna Buang, has been confirmed. Rapid Ascent has launched a new event that promises challenges for participants, with the new Vertical K - Mt Donna Buang to be held on 29 November at Warburton. This challenge pitches man and bike against one of the most notable climbs in Australia. Promoters say it is a test of strength over a vertical kilometre for trail runners and cyclists, who will start together at the base of Mt Donna Buang and take different courses to race each other to the summit, which is over one vertical kilometre above. Mt Donna Buang is well-known among trail runners thanks to the tall timber forests lining the Yarra Valley and the network of trails that climb up its steep sides. It’s Australia’s first Vertical Kilometre SkyRace and Vertical K -

Hard-won day

Relay’s gold in the cold

THE Healesville Juniors hosted Wesburn in the wet and cold this week, while the Under 11s travelled to Mount Evelyn. The Under 10s ground out a hard-fought victory. Although their opponents had quite a few forward entries, the Under 10s defended well and were able to generate 13 scoring shots in their forward line. The Under 11s struggled against the stronger Mount Evelyn side. The players continue to work hard and improve each week. The Under 12 Girls played Wesburn and secured their first win of the season. The girls moved the ball well from end to end and continued to tackle well and keep the pressure on their opposition. A heavy ground and persistent rain meant the contest against third-placed Wesburn was always going to be a slog for the Under 12s. It required a high level of effort across all four quarters and the team delivered, despite the cold. At times, they squandered forward opportunities but the sheer weight of numbers and efforts around the ball allowed the group to keep the scoreboard ticking over. A really difficult day for football. The way the team got the job done against a resilient oppo-

ATHLETICS Victoria and Little Athletics Victoria combined at Sandown Park on Saturday to host the Victorian Road Relay Championships. Yarra Ranges Athletics had 10 teams in the AV competition and five teams in the LAV championships. Standout result was from the club’s winning Under 8s girls team of Charlotte Comport, Katyn Russell and Tiara Willis. The Under 15s Boys team of Connor Thrall, Jayden Clarke and Ryan Thrall also produced a fantastic second placing in their grade. The AV results were highlighted by the Division 4 women storming home to win their division and their Division 4 Men finishing a close second. A big thanks to Ron Veenendaal, Phil Russell and Lynn Strudley for officiating; and to all the other recorders who braved the cold and wet conditions. Good luck to all club athletes competing at the School Sport Victoria State Cross Country Championships on Thursday. Next Saturday club members are competing at the Know Open Day.

The Under 14s game was a tight contest with no goals scored in the first half by either team. Then Healesville piled on four unanswered goals in the third quarter to go into the final quarter with a 23-point lead, which proved insurmountable in the wet and muddy conditions. The Under 16s were the final game of the day on what was now a very muddy ground. Healesville started strongly which proved the difference in the game as the ball got heavier. Dale Senior kicked six of the eight Healesville goals in a very low-scoring affair. The win all but guarantees the Under 16s a place in the finals.

Taylor, Dwyer represent By JUDY ORREN WHILE it was a bye for Division 1 last week, this round saw three of the league’s players selected to participate in the Vic Country versus VAFA Championships that were held in Bendigo. Josh Taylor (Wandin) was named assistant coach of the No.2 side and Scott Dwyer (Wandin) played in the No.2 team. Dylan Gordon (Warburton Millgrove) played in the Under 19s team and was named best on ground. Congratulations to all the boys. Vic Country No.1: 17.15 (117) d VAFA 8.7 (55) Vic Country No.2: 10.16 (76) d VAFA (Prem B - Div 4) 7.5 47 Vic Country U19: 8.13 (61) d VAFA U19 1.5 (11) SENIORS - ROUND 12 Belgrave 23.8 (146) d Upwey Tecoma 15.14 (104) A very accurate Belgrave was too good for Upwey as they came away with a seven-goal victory. This game started off even with Belgrave holding just a three-point lead as the first change. The second quarter was where Belgrave took control, as their running power was too much for Upwey to contain. They booted 8 goals to 3 in the term to lead by 30 points at the main break. The second half was a really good battle and goals came thick and fast. There was 20 second-half goals scored in total, but it was Belgrave that had all the answers and also had the edge. They added another 11 goals to Upwey’s 9 to come away with a good win on the back of what was a great second quarter.

Ron McKendry (Belgrave) attempts to spoil Dan Waters (Upwey). Best: Healesville - B. Nicholls (2 goals), M. Jeffery (1 goal), R. Hunter (3 goals) Wandin -M. Debono (1 goal), P. Hodgett (5 goals), B. Lawrence

DIVISION 2 A GRADE NETBALL (ROUND 13) Seville 32 d Yarra Junction 20 Seville has come away with a 12-goal victory, but had to work hard to shake off a very willing Yarra Junction side. Seville led by four goals at the first change and maintained that lead at half time after a six-goal apiece second term. Seville did stretch their lead in the third with an 8 goal to 5 term, but Junction was certainly hanging in there. The last quarter was where Seville broke away to a degree. Junction just couldn’t eat away at the lead as Seville got on top, scoring 8 goals to 3 to win in what was a good tussle.

Best: Belgrave - E. Clasby (5 goals), P. Gough, D. Collins (1 goal) Upwey Tecoma - D. Waters (6 goals), S. Dawson (1 goal), T. Robinson

DIVISION 2 SENIORS (ROUND 13) Gembrook Cockatoo 12.16 (88) d Alexandra 3.5 (23) Gembrook won quite easily in the end, but they did have to work hard early to get the game on their terms. They led by just one point at the first change. They only booted three goals in the second quarter but held Alex to just one point and their lead was 20 points by half-time. Gembrook controlled the entire second half and really should have blown Alex away in the third, but they were wasteful scoring 3.9 to 1 goal to lead by 41 points at the final change. Gembrook finished the day with a 4 goals to 2 behinds in the last term to win with relative ease and now sits one game clear in fourth place. Best: Gembrook Cockatoo - J. Raymond, L. Frazzetto (3 goals), R. Causer (2 goals) Alexandra - B. Cooper, K. Veldman, J. Purcell (1 goal)

Seville 7.9 (51) d Yarra Junction 5.8 (38) This was by no means a great spectacle, but Seville will be happy enough to walk away with the win. Yarra Junction led by just one point at the first change but it was Seville that booted two goals in the second term while holding Junction goalless to take a nine-point lead into half-time. The third term opened up a little with a total of five goals scored, with Seville booting three of those to extend their lead to 16 points at the final change. The last quarter was a slog, both teams finding it hard to go forward. There was only one goal scored for the term and that went the way of Yarra Junction, but it wasn’t enough as Seville came away with an ugly but effective 13-point victory. Best: Seville - D. Groen, L. Aitkens, S. Senior Yarra Junction - T. Carlyle, L. Cove (1 goal), J. Black

Thornton Eildon 21.15 (141) d Powelltown 5.9 (39) Thornton Eildon is firming more and more as favourites for the flag after a dominating performance over final aspirants Powelltown. Thornton Eildon was outstanding from the first bounce. They jumped out to a 25-point lead at the first change, and then played a blistering second term where they booted 8 goals to 1 to lead by 68 points and have the game well in their keeping. The second half saw Thornton stretch their lead. They booted 4 goals to 2 in the third and finished off with a 4 goal to 1 final term to win by 101 points and now sit just a percentage off top spot. Best: Thornton Eildon - J. Herridge (1 goal), R. Chapman (3 goals), B. Kapakoulakis (1 goal) Powelltown -M. McArthur, N. Moody, M. McLaughlin

Kinglake 7.11 (53) d Yea 1.4 (10) Kinglake may not have been at their best, but they were always in control of this clash. Kinglake had only booted three goals in the first half, but Yea had only the two behinds to their name. The third term saw Kinglake add another

Ben Cooper (Alexandra) and Craig Clarke (Gembrook) going in for the hard-ball get. three goals while Yea booted their only major for the day in this term and it was Kinglake by 36 points at the final change. The last quarter wasn’t anything special as Kinglake went through the motions. They booted one goal while Yea didn’t even bother the scoreboard to see Kinglake win by 43 points in a very forgettable encounter. Best: Kinglake - D. McMahon, J. Walker, T. Thone-Kain (1 goal) Yea - J. Marasco, D. Evans, T. Butterworth

UNDER 18s (ROUND 13) Upwey Tecoma 16.16 (112) d Belgrave 7.5 (47) A reasonable four-quarter performance from Upwey who were just a touch too good for a competitive Belgrave side. Upwey certainly was the better side in the first half as they went into half-time with a 27-point lead, but Belgrave was certainly still in the contest. The third quarter was where Upwey took control. They had multiple forward entries and booted 5.7 for the term while Belgrave could only manage one goal, and Upwey’s lead had blown out to 58 points by three quarter time. The last quarter saw both sides finish the game off well. Upwey booted 4 goals to 3 for the term to win by 65 points in what was a very controlled performance. Best: Upwey Tecoma - B. Oates (4 goals), M. Kirby (2 goals), S. Shineberg (1 goal) Belgrave - J. Blennerhassett, N. Schill (1 goal), M. Collins

Woori Yallock 8.9 (57) d Warburton Millgrove 7.12 (54) For three quarters of this game, it looked as though Woori was in control, but Warby came hard at the end to almost steal victory. Woori led this game by 22 points at the half and Warby had only scored the one goal. The third term was a good one, with teams going goal for goal, but it was Woori with a slight edge as they booted 4 goals to 3 to lead by 27 points at the final break. Warburton threw everything at Woori in the last and attacked relentlessly. Unfortunately for them, they wasted numerous chances as they booted 3.6 for the quarter and even though Woori didn’t score they were able to hold on to win by 3 points in what was a thrilling finish. Best: Woori Yallock - D. Benson, J. Collette (1 goal), M. Arnold (3 goals) Warburton Millgrove - J. Blake (1 goal), S. Wells, A. Maguire

Mount Evelyn 6.16 (52) d Yea 4.11 (35) Both sides were very inaccurate, but it still made for a pretty good contest. Yea led by four points at quarter time, but Mount Evelyn booted 3 goals to 1 in the second to take an 11-point lead into half-time. The third quarter saw a slog with goals hard to come by as both sides only managed one goal apiece for the term and it was Mount Evelyn by just seven points. In the last quarter, Mount Evelyn really looked to get on top but they just couldn’t put it on the scoreboard as they booted 1.6, however it was enough as Yea only scored to two behinds which saw Mount Evelyn come away with a hard-fought 17- point victory. Best: Mount Evelyn - L. Callaghan, L. Manassa (2 goals), C. Knoll Yea - R. Aldous (2 goals), H. Jarvie (1 goal), X. O’Dwyer

Emerald 16.9 (105) d Monbulk 6.6 (42) Emerald was favourites to win this clash, but they had a real battle on their hands in the first half as Monbulk took in right up to them. Emerald led by just five points at the main break and just couldn’t get any flow going with their game, thanks to Monbulk’s defence. The third quarter was where Emerald showed their class. They opened the game up and created more run that Monbulk couldn’t combat. Emerald booted 6 goals to 2 in the third to open up a 32-point lead at the final break and then added another 6 goals to 1 in the last to win by 63 points, thanks to a dominant second half. Best: Emerald - J. Kruithof (3 goals), J. Pedder (3 goals), K. Burns (5 goals) Monbulk - B. Jennings-Allen, T. Gromer, J. Rak

Healesville 18.11 (119) d Wandin 8.4 (52) It’s amazing that Healesville wasn’t at their best in this game, but they still won by 67 points which just shows how dominant they are. This clash started with an even first term, and it was Healesville by just two points at the first break. The second term was Healesville’s best for the day and it set up their victory as they booted six goals while holding Wandin scoreless and their lead was out to 41 points at the long break. The second half was a decent battle as Wandin did battle the game out, but Healesville’s class was just too good as they added another 9 goals to Wandin’s 5 to win by yet another big margin.

Best: Seville - Stacey Abbruzzese, Tania Hoare, Rachael Goulding (16 goals) Yarra Junction - Jodi Terry, Courtney Richards, Catherine Cook

Powelltown 41 d Thornton Eildon 19 Powelltown was never really bothered by Thornton Eildon during this game despite their best efforts. Powelltown had all the answers and continued to stretch their lead as the contest went on, they were simply just a class above what is an improving Thornton Eildon but unfortunately for them they just weren’t up to the same standard as their opponents in this clash. Best: Powelltown - Erin Williams, Jodie M Stenhouse, Demi Barber Thornton Eildon - Krystal Herridge, Melinda Sier, Darcy Smith

Yea 57 d Kinglake 21 Yea shot out of the blocks and raced to a 22goal lead by half time of this clash to be very much in control. The third quarter saw Yea continue their dominance as they added another 16 goals to 4 and their lead had jumped out to a very sizable 34 goals. The last quarter was at least a bit more of an even contest with Yea scoring 12 goals to Kinglake’s 10, but make no mistake this game belonged to Yea for entire 4 quarters. Best: Yea - Lauren Tesoriero, Lucy Marks, Cindy Newcombe Kinglake - Karsha Hoyt, Jade White (15 goals), Amy Teodorovic
