Port harbour work delays trial but...

Ferry beats jam By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN Portarlington is the logical choice for an extension of the bay’s first commuter ferry trial, according to Port Phillip Ferries chairman Paul Little. But any trial from the Bellarine Peninsula has to await the completion of Portarlington’s safe harbour project, scheduled for February. The Wyndham-to-Docklands ferry begins an eight-week trial on Monday, with return tickets at an introductory price of $20. The 75-minute trip will be aboard a 400 seat, 35-metre catamaran will include wi-fi capabili-

ties and an on-board cafe. It will run one weekday morning and evening service from Wyndham, departing 6.40am and leaving Docklands at 5.40pm, with parking available at Wyndham. Bellarine Ferry Project chairman John Rae said the service would already be attractive to Geelong commuters wrestling with the traffic jams approaching Westgate. “I’m sure Geelong commuters will use it. If it was me I’d try it and see how it works,” Mr Rae said. “You sail along until you hit Werribee and that’s when the trouble starts, so switching to the

ferry cuts out the problem.” Mr Little said more work needed to be done to allow ferries to berth at Portarlington. “We’d be very happy to run the ferries out of Portarlington if the demand was there,” he said. Mr Rae and fellow ferry group proponent Geoff Henderson joined a preview ride on the new service this week. “It was fabulous. When we are clear of the speed restrictions we went up to 25 knots and even though it was a bad day you could not feel a thing,” Mr Rae said. Continued page 12

Cash crisis hits homeless By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A Geelong youth homelessness program, which has been hailed as a model internationally, is having difficulties finding funding. The Geelong Project has been identified as a leading program in reforming traditional approaches to youth homelessness policy. But the program is being funded by Barwon Child, Youth and Family (BCYF) because it has been unable to attract state or federal government funding. The Geelong Project is a partnership between schools and youth services across Geelong enabling early intervention with young people at secondary school level identified to be at risk. The Costs of Youth Homelessness in Australia (CYHA) report released last week said the program could save millions of dollars if

rolled out nationally. The report said the cost of dealing with homeless young people through the health and criminal justice systems was higher than the cost of all homelessness services across Australia for people of all ages. The report called for a complete reform of youth homelessness policy in Australia. It cited The Geelong Project’s community of schools and services model as an innovative and successful early intervention programs. BCYF head Sandy Morrison said he welcomed the report’s call for further investment in early intervention strategies. “The report describes the early intervention work pioneered and implemented by The Geelong Project as a leading exemplar of a collective impact model,” Mr Morrison said. “The Geelong Project is calling for reform of local school and support service systems to bet-

ter identify and respond to disadvantaged youth and families early, thus diverting them from a life course of homelessness and disadvantage.” The program is being piloted in two locations in New South Wales with a further seven foreshadowed in the near future, Mr Morrison said. Pilot sites were also under development in South Australia and there was interest from Canada and the United States. Almost 42,000 young people aged 15 to 24 accessed homelessness services across Australia in 2014 to 2015. Mr Morrison said a significant number were forced to leave home because of family violence. “Without early intervention, homelessness results in significant health risks, an increased risk of interacting with the criminal justice system and, for many who are early school leavers, the possibility of life-long disadvantage.”

Op-shoppers to hunt bargains for Bluebird Foundation A unique fundraising event will give Geelong’s bargain hunters the opportunity to win a weekend escape while raising money for local charity the Bluebird Foundation. Teams of up to four players will hunt for bargain second-hand items from 9 to 16 June with the aim of earning a profit when later selling their purchases at auction. Bluebird Foundation co-founder Bron Lawson said Bargain Hunters would send shoppers searching through op-shops and second-hand stores for vintage and antique items to go under the hammer at Kerleys Auction Rooms. “The team that makes the most money will be crowned the winners and earn themselves a weekend escape to historic Ballarat, staying at luxurious Lascelles Ballarat. “But, of course, they won’t be the only winners, as all money raised will support Bluebird Foundation’s programs in the Geelong region. “There’s a whole bunch of people out there who watch American Pickers, Bargain Hunt and Antiques Roadshow on TV. They’re mad keen to get out there and give it a try themselves. “Bargain Hunters is a great way to be part of a fun event and raise some money for charity at the same time.” Bluebird Foundation offers arts programs for disadvantaged children, youth and adults. Ms Lawson said the foundation was only a small organisation but made a big difference by making every dollar count. Bargain Hunters registrations are open at bargainhunters.eventbrite.com.au

In Brief Dump star A man found trapped under tonnes of scrap metal in a skip bin at Breakwater on Tuesday has left police baffled after being unable to explain the incident. Emergency services had to remove the metal to rescue the injured man at the recycling premises site, next to a Bandidos bikie gang clubhouse.

Health review A health review on the Bellarine Peninsula will consider the impact of “significant changes to local demographics” on service delivery. Bellarine Community Health board chair Hazel Ingram said the State Government had appointed consultants to analyse whether services were “meeting current needs”.

Wrecker blaze A suspicious fire engulfed numerous wrecked cars at a North Shore wrecking yard on Wednesday night. Victoria Police said investigators believed the arsonist parked in Walpole Pde about 10.20pm before approaching the Georges Rd premises and using accelerant to ignite the wrecks stacked against a fence.

Gun search Detectives have searched a reservoir north of Geelong for a gun linked to a Melbourne gangland killing. Victoria Police said Purana Taskforce investigators attended the Pykes Creek reservoir, near Ballan, on Monday, as they continued investigating the 2003 murder of Graham ‘The Munster’ Kinniburgh.

Stars’ poker limo dumped at Lara A limousine driver for a fund-raising poker night rolled the dice and lost while picking up his celebrity clients at a Geelong waterfront restaurant this week. The white stretch limousine was stolen from outside Fishermen’s Pier when the driver left it to collect his celebrity clients. The Murrell Chauffeur Drive vehicle was later recovered bogged at Lara with extensive damage. Murrell’s chief Darryl Murrell said the limousine was a write off and a devastating incident for the family business. “Unfortunately while the vehicle was recovered the damage caused by the thieves was sub-

stantial and the vehicle is beyond repair,” he said. “The incredible amount of help we received during the ordeal has only reinforced my belief that the majority of residents in our city are incredible people who go out of their way to help.” Witnesses had earlier reported sighting the Chrysler at various locations around Geelong as the thieves apparently took the vehicle for a joyride. The vehicle was one of two that Geelong’s Murrell Group donated to chauffeur the poker night celebrities, including Shane Warne, Billy Brownless, Brian Taylor and Brendan Fevola.

The party was shocked to see the limo heading down Eastern Beach Road when they left the restaurant after dinner. They were about to travel from the waterfront to North Geelong’s Sphinx Hotel for the Geelong’s All In For Charity poker night which was raising money for National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). Australian poker champion Joe Hachem’s management group organised the celebrity fundraiser. The company sought support from Geelong through either donations of fundraising items or buying tables of 10 or tickets for the Sphinx night,

Volunteering role adding up for Iranian migrant Elham By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN Accountancy is the same everywhere but life in Geelong is different to Iran, Elham Irvan said candidly. Elham and her two children migrated to Australia in 2013 for a better life. And despite the hardships, she’s thankful for the opportunity to give back to her new community as a UnitingCare volunteer. Elham spoke about her story to mark National Volunteer Week, acknowledging the generous contribution of volunteers. A recruitment firm referred the qualified accountant to UnitingCare Geelong’s Grovedale agency to develop her skills and social network. From writing cheques to processing payments and managing accounts, Elham said she enjoyed her varied role. “I enjoy working with numbers and getting a taste of what it would be like to work as an accountant in Australia. The team is very friendly and have welcomed me with open arms. In Iran I worked as an accountant for a couple of different businesses. I find the role is much the same here in Australia.” UnitingCare Geelong’s Des Younghusband called Elham a “great addition”. With more than 400 volunteers across a variety of roles, Mr Younghusband said volunteers were “the lifeblood of our organisation”.

Avenue trees go Fresh from securing the removal of a “disrespectful” billboard over their avenue of honour, Geelong’s Vietnam veterans will now have new trees planted along their stretch of Melbourne Road. City Hall said staff would remove 14 “unhealthy” ironbarks along the avenue, between Mackey and Swinburne streets, North Geelong, and replace them with 2.5m trees of the same species. The work would be complete in about four hours on Saturday to ensure the avenue of honour was ready for August’s 50th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan, City Hall said. One lane would be closed in either direction on Melbourne Road during the replacements. The tree-lined avenue was first established in 1995 with plane trees, which were removed in 1998 due to drought and replaced with the ironbarks. City Hall said 107 ironbarks in “good health” on the avenue would remain in place.

Titanic problems ‘drowning force’

Double Take

By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN Police resourcing in Geelong is akin to moving the deck chairs on the Titanic, according to Police Association secretary Ron Iddles. Mr Iddles was responding to the comments of Geelong’s top cop last week, admitting the crime situation in Geelong was dire. The Indy reported that Superintendent Daryl Clifton had broken ranks with Victoria Police command on the eve of his retirement to slam Geelong policing resourcing and the justice system. Supt Clifton said the state justice system was releasing juveniles who were committing multiple offences and a police force that was struggling to cope. “(Police) management have been intent on moving deck chairs on the Titanic - finally someone has noticed we’re sinking,” Mr Iddles told the Indy this week. “There’s no doubt that crime is on the rise and that what Victoria Police is currently doing to deal with it is not working. “Unfortunately we are of the strong view that this rise in crime is directly linked to the diminishing number of police available in places like Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula, a situation that police management in Geelong have only in recent months argued was adequate. “When the most senior police member in a region takes a stand and says we have a problem, you can be assured that there is a genuine problem. “It means that it is time to stop the political spin about increases to ‘police personnel’, crime stats and do what we know works and that is giving places like Geelong and the peninsula police

MYSTERY: Left high and dry, and a little worse for wear, the fish that freaked out Darryn Lyons.

Police Association secretary Ron Iddles. numbers commensurate with the growth of their community. “This is not a situation limited to Geelong, however. Like other police service areas that accommodate growth corridors, the situation for members and the community is quite bad. “Members working in Geelong and regional stations have been telling us for years that they are overworked, exhausted and unable to meet basic demand. “Smaller communities have had the doors of their stations closed, now only replaced with counter services when what they really need are more police on the street to meet demand. “These are issues the Police Association has been raising for two years in Geelong, only to be told by local management (that) everything is fine. “There needs to be truth in policing and senior members should be able to tell it like it is without fear of reprisals. “Unless this happens the issue highlighted by Supt Clifton will never be properly addressed.”

His sacking as mayor was a horror story for Darryn Lyons but now he’s featured in a mystery from the deep. While leisurely strolling Geelong’s waterfront promenade with fiancée Elissa Friday last week, our man about town was shocked to discover washed ashore a giant fish head (pictured). Decomposition had taken its toll, causing an intrigued Daz to ponder the big fish’s species. Shark? Groper? Creature from the Black Lagoon? The social media-savvy ex-mayor knew where to seek an ID. “Any fisherman know what fish this is?” he enquired on Twitter with an attached pic of the now-nasty noggin. “Was huge floating up on Western Beach on our walk! Must have been a whopper.” Double Take suggests a large southern bluefin tuna, although well past the use-by date of any sashimi on Daz’s plate. All the big box-like shapes in Westfield’s food court, be they large square rubbish bins or

ATMs, can apparently be confusing for some shoppers. They certainly confused an elderly lady who tried to put her rubbish into an ATM this week only to belatedly discover her mistake. A wag sitting nearby commented drily: “They only take your money.” Just as well she didn’t make the reverse mixup and push her bank card into a bin! Watch out for the newest dance craze, about to hit Geelong next week. “Flamingo dance” will be a highlight of the city’s new Latin Fiesta, according to its publicity blurb. Flamingo dance? Presumably it’s like seen on a wildlife documentary, with dancers vigorously flapping make-believe wings and ruffling invisible pink feathers. Given the event’s Latin theme, perhaps the organisers could enhance this interesting new dance style with elements of traditional ‘flamenco dance’. Either way, fans of dance - flamenco or flamingo - can catch the latest moves during the fiesta at Lyndon Grove Receptions on 20 May.

CBRE Hotels’ Rob Cross and Scott Callow will steer the expressions of interest campaign for the prominent venue, expected to attract significant interest from private investors and owner operators. “Last year, a record $2.6 billion in Australian hotels changed hands and this momentum has carried into 2016,” Mr Cross said. “One of the ongoing constraints has been the lack of purchasable stock and, with high levels of competition pushing up already high prices in Sydney and Melbourne investors are increasingly focused on opportunities in regional areas.” Opened in 1971, the four-star hotel has 138

guest rooms and suites, a restaurant and bar, various meeting and function rooms, an outdoor pool and spa, gymnasium and 24-hour reception. A consistently strong performer, the hotel is situated on a 5991 square metre site on the city edge. Mr Cross said the large site size allowed for future development, subject to the relevant approvals. He said owner operators were expected to show particularly strong interest as the existing management agreement with Accor expired mid next year. “The ability to achieve vacant possession will be particularly appealing to owner operators, many of whom are looking to expand their networks given the continued improvements forecast for the Australian hotel sector,” Mr Cross said. Appetite for domestic travel would remain firm and the higher dollar would not discourage overseas visitors, according to CBRE’s Q1Australia Hotels MarketView report.

Further consolidation of Geelong human services agencies is on the cards as Bethany Community Support and Geelong Kindergarten Association (GKA) propose to merge. The agencies announced their respective boards were unanimous and signed a Memorandum of Understanding as a sign of their commitment to the proposal. Geelong Indy reported in March that the region’s two largest human services organisations, Karingal and St Laurence Community Services, agreed to merge. Karingal had already merged with northern suburbs support agency CREATE in 2011 and with DoCare Geelong in 2015. The same year Barwon Child, Youth and Family was created out of a merger between Barwon Youth, Glastonbury Community Services and Time for Youth. “We are excited by the opportunities and believe that Bethany and GKA are a good fit to deliver quality early childhood education programs for children and support to families,” Bethany CEO Grant Boyd said. “As one organisation we aim to increase the opportunity and capability in developing new and innovative services to meet the changing needs of children and families.” The outcome of the merger would depend on the support of existing kindergarten committees and the Department of Education, he said. GKA Managing Director Tina Martin said extensive consultation sessions with all GKA Kindergarten Committees and Department of Education would be held. “An announcement was made to our staff yesterday and we are committed to engaging staff and stakeholders in the process. “We believe the merger will be an excellent outcome for both organisations and the wider GKA and Bethany communities.” She said a final decision on the merger would be made by August this year.

Work begins on ‘tallest building’

HOT SALSA: Geelong Salsa's Jean-Paul D’Aubbonnett and Sally Pearson show moves for the fiesta.

Geelong fiesta to save kids in Brazil Brazilian children at risk of sexual exploitation will benefit from a new event in Geelong. Charity A2B (Australia to Brazil) will stage Latin Fiesta next week with a feast of sangria, tapas, paelle, Brazilian music and performing arts from capoeira to salsa and flamenco dance on 20 May. Fiesta organising committee spokesman Peter Weymouth hoped the event would raise awareness of Brazil’s impoverished children. “The project’s A2B support are innovative, creative and leave children with a sense of dignity,” he said. A2B director Danielle Leal was grateful to the committee for organising the event. “This is a great initiative from a group of local

people to give hope to Brazilian children living in horrific conditions,” Ms Leal said. The proceeds would help provide meals for 60 girls a day and give children access to educational programs and social workers. The event begins at 7pm at Lyndon Grove Receptions, Grovedale. Organisers said other activities would include a raffle and a silent auction. Tickets cost $55 each, $250 for six or $400 for 10 at iwannaticket.com.au. The organisers said more information was available by emailing a2blatinfiesta@gmail.com or phoning 0499 090 922. A2B accepts donations at a2bsupport.org.

Work on Geelong’s tallest building has officially begun. Demolition of existing buildings on the site began this week to make way for the $120 million, 14-storey WorkSafe head office. The new building at 1 Malop Street, Geelong, is due for completion in 2018. Quintessential Equity is developing the WorkSafe office in conjunction with construction company Built. WorkSafe Chief Executive Clare Amies said the new headquarters for 700 staff would transform Geelong’s skyline. Ms Amies said the beginning of work at the site was both a significant step in the development and an exciting moment for WorkSafe. “Work will start on demolishing empty buildings at the rear of the site and internal structural works to support and protect the facade of the historic Dalgety and Co building,” she said. “This is an important milestone for WorkSafe because it means we are another step closer to becoming part of the fabric of Geelong. “Each WorkSafe employee plays an important role in making a real difference to the lives

of people in Victoria and we are looking forward to bringing this commitment and passion to Geelong.” More than 150 WorkSafe employees will move to Geelong in December to work out of the nearby TAC head office at 60 Brougham Street, with the remainder of staff to make the move in 2018 upon completion of the new building. Piling and other foundation works were expected to begin later this month. Victorian Finance Minister Robin Scott said the start of work meant the project was a step closer to breathing more life into Geelong. The office would bring hundreds of new jobs to help transforming the CBD, Mr Scott said. “The new headquarters will be a powerful symbol of renewal and help make sure we continue to grow Geelong into a national hub of injury prevention.” Geelong MP Christine Couzens said the start of work on the WorkSafe site was an important milestone for Geelong. “Avalon’s future is safe, the WorkSafe headquarters is coming - we’re putting planes and cranes in the sky for Geelong.”

Police seek tip on woman with tips

WANTED: The woman police want to question.

A woman is believed to have stolen a tips jar in a cafe burglary at Mt Duneed, police allege. She is also thought to have left the Uforic Food Cafe with an iPod and Samsung tablet after entering the venue through a rear sliding door before dawn on Monday, police posted on Facebook. The tips jar contained “a small amount of cash”, the post said. “The offender is described as be-

ing female, maybe 40 years of age, with blond hair. At the time of the offence she was wearing a long dress with a black ballero style jacket.” Police released an image of a woman who might be able to “assist the investigation”. Police asked anyone with information to phone Senior Detective David Lewis on 5264 3450 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Buckets & Bouquets Buckets to Get Some Taste (Buckets & Bouquets, 6 May). Discriminating against we garden gnomes seems a hobby for some Hightonites. Many folk, even the wealthy, advantaged and socially well-placed, appreciate appropriately grouped families of garden gnomes. Gnomists seeking to gnome-cleanse our neighbourhoods must not be tolerated. Norm Gnome, Geelong West Buckets to Highton’s Get Some Taste. I bet you live in a drab house with an equally drab garden. We are more colourful than you. Perhaps instead of saying nasty things just to be mean you should inject some colour into your dull black-and-white life. Colourful And Proud Gnome, Herne Hill Buckets to Get Some Taste. My dad paints and restores garden gnomes for therapy after recovering from cancer. You sound like a bitter person with nothing to do. We Have Plenty Of Taste, Herne Hill Bouquets to Kate for handing in money lost near Westpac Belmont. Your honesty was greatly appreciated. Kevin, Belmont Bouquets to Torquay Removals’ Corey and Gary, who moved us in pelting rain on Monday. Great job, guys. I would recommend and use you again. Gayle, Torquay

Buckets to the insensitive person who picked on someone in their neighbourhood for putting a gnome or two in their garden, which is of course their private property. It’s not your concern and you should not be so rude. Ellen, Geelong West Bouquets to the staff at Panache on Geelong’s waterfront last Friday night. It was the night of Geelong After Dark and the lovely girls were so busy working hard until late. It was a pleasure to see them work together so well. Happy Customer, Belmont Buckets to the authority responsible for toilets that have been out-of-order at Lara’s sixways for more than four weeks. Busting, Lara Bouquets to everyone who made the Grovedale Uniting Care Church and Uniting Care Huge Book Sale such a big success for a debut event and to the Geelong Indy for promoting the sale.

Otway koalas go in new Cape cull Wildlife officers will try again to relieve the pressure on the koala overpopulation at Cape Otway through culls and fertility control, the State Government has announced. Wildlife officers and vets will carry out a two-week program of fertility control and health checks to manage the koala population in Cape Otway. The program targets female koalas for capture and fertility control hormone implants to manage breeding rates and address overpopulation this upcoming spring and summer. The health of all captured koalas will be assessed and koalas fit for release will be returned to their home range. This follows a relocation of more than 400 koalas to a new home in Great Otway National Park late last year. Geelong Indy reported overpopulation pressures forced a culling program, but a public outcry prompted the relocation of 374 healthy adult koalas and 74 dependent young. Authorities hoped the koalas’ new 4300-hectare habitat north of Lorne would address the welfare needs of an “overabundant” population at Cape Otway ahead of summer. The Lorne site offered several species of eucalypt favoured by koalas, starving after eating out their previous home at Cape Otway. The latest program will be carried out by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and involves small teams of trained professionals including experienced koala

catchers and veterinarians. The DELWP said any unhealthy koalas deemed too sick to survive release or with other serious health issues would be humanely euthanased to prevent further suffering. “Most back young will be independent of their mothers this time of year,” DELWP said. “However, where female koalas in poor health are euthanased for humane reasons, we will endeavour to re-home orphaned dependent back young with suitably qualified wildlife parks or zoos.” The DELWP said evidence so far showed the relocation reduced pressure for the remaining koalas and their habitat at Cape Otway over summer. Field monitoring in February showed the koala density in some parts of Cape Otway was still high, the DELWP said. “An estimated 600 koalas remain in 120 hectares of Manna Gum and some mixed Eucalypt woodland at Cape Otway. “Locations with high koala density will be targeted during this program and the focus will be on private properties where koala densities are now reaching up to 11 per hectare.” The DELWP said it had commissioned the Arthur Rylah Institute (ARI) to conduct a research project on the carrying capacity and habitat health of manna gum dominated areas of the region. Results from the research would assist koala management at Cape Otway and other forest areas in south-west Victoria.

Leopold’s Chris Hall has smashed his goal to raise $1500 for motor neuron disease research (MND) this year after raising $3554 in just a few months. “If I can raise $10,000 that would be fantastic,” he told the Indy during MND Awareness Week. The 41-year-old’s quest to wheel 50km in his wheelchair each month began after the recent

death of a work colleague with MND. Chris said people often ask him why he’s raising money for MND, rather than spina bifida, which is why he uses a wheelchair. “People know what causes spina bifida and how to eliminate it,” he said. “No one knows how to treat MND or what causes it so, hopefully, the money I raise helps.” To find out more or donate visit www.gofundme.com/j9hpwhr8

Cove for rich to flood poor The proposed Nelson Cove development would convert the last remaining substantial piece of land available to flora and fauna in Corio Bay to a canal-style housing estate, which, at the very least, would be gross environmental irresponsibility. A potential situation of Crown land being transferred to private ownership for the destruction of valuable, unique habitat suggests an even bleaker future for the environment in general. Many are aware of the local and migratory birds that rely on this site for food and refuge. What many might not know is that the former Cheetham Salt site’s integral sea wall provides valuable protection for the low-lying urban areas of Newcomb and Whittington. Low-lying topography, together with the threat of climate-change induced sea-level rise, means the sea wall and wetlands are the best friends of the residents and businesses that call these areas home. Nelson Cove would breach the sea wall and bring the ocean to Portarlington Road to provide passage to the boats of a privileged few. Possible ramifications include decreasing property values and rising insurance premiums. From many perspectives, Nelson Cove is easily identified as disastrous and must not proceed past conceptual stage. Matthew Fraser Geelong West

What hope has Avalon Airport, even in a federal election year, of achieving a regional tourism bonanza and becoming a fresh-food export hub to Asia given the lack of political will and planning compromise and lazy, un-costed, disparate advocacy? While local lobby groups G21, Committee for Geelong and Geelong Chamber of Commerce have all highlighted support for Avalon to gain international carrier status, none have done the hard yards with Linfox to put up a realistic costing. Equally, the Federal Coalition has capped airport works at 10,000 square metres, together with a farcical $15 million allocation, dependent on Linfox finding an international carrier. To add to the inertia, City of Greater Geelong in 2013 reduced the airport’s proposed retail component by 50 per cent yet incongruously CEO Kevin Spillier has reiterated council’s priority support for the proposed international terminal (Geelong Indy, 8 May). In addition to the malaise and despite the Andrews Government's $12m subsidy, why hasn’t the cornerstone rail spur been delivered? Given the capacity for Avalon to connect directly with inbound Asian tourism and export locally sourced fresh food, the trickledown realjobs benefit is pretty much unquantifiable. Rather than putting repeated hundreds of millions of dollars into questionable re-training programs, a similar one-off investment to get Avalon fully operational would frank responsible use of limited taxpayer monies. It’s cynicism, I know, but more’s the pity that Avalon, the goose that could lay ongoing golden eggs, isn’t located within Corangamite’s electoral boundaries. Richard Worland Manifold Heights

Marles, must be shaking in his boots at the prospect. If the Liberal Party decides to give its preferences to Lyons he can win this seat on the outcome of a recent public opinion poll. (Geelong Indy, 8 April). Michael J Gamble Belmont

Now the election has been announced, we will try to assess the reliability of costings, promises and politicians’ ability to predict the unknown circumstances of the next years. However, some factors can guide our choice. One is the morals that shape politicians’ vision of Australian society. For many, morality has its foundation in our Judeo-Christian heritage. This determines the nature of the most important of relationships: marriage, designed by God to give the best nurture, through father and mother, to children they have conceived. The leading parties’ definition of marriage now presents a clear distinction. Labor’s Bill Shorten has promised to redefine marriage as including same-sex unions by removing the defining choice from the general population, preferring the wisdom of the political machine. The Nationals, the greatest supporters of traditional morality, seem to be dragging the Liberals along in leaving the question of marriage definition with the community. Recent news has highlighted problems with lawless youths in Geelong. Now is the time to emphasise the true nature and responsibilities of family. Ignoring the defined roles of father and mother leaves their young with poor guidelines. The Bible teaches that parents have a responsibility to discipline their children; that parents who fail to discipline their children are lacking in love. It seems acceptable to our society that parents can ignore their responsibilities without consequence. For the sake of our young and the health of society, marriage must return to past Biblical concepts. Pastor Frank Lowry Aberdeen Street Baptist Church

Screening out skills Technology is invading children’s lives and consuming their childhood. Thankfully, screen-less times at home and school are being introduced to reset the balance. At worst, technology can endanger children’s ability to participate in oral communication, thus limiting their interaction with others which can reduce social skills. It also reduces cognitive skills which help acquire knowledge and understanding through thought, experience and the senses. Screen time can also lead to early exposure to sex and violence which can increase childhood aggression. Excessive screen time is now one of the biggest health concerns for teenagers because reduced physical activity affects mobility, muscle development and weight. Some schools have instigated laptop-free days, banned screens during lunch, recess and school camps, and reintroduced handwritten assignments. Gradually reducing screen time at home by 30 minutes a day could be a good start while simultaneously introducing family activities. Families could begin a period of playtime without screens and gradually lengthen it, although it would need some parental involvement and leadership. The benefits of non-screen activities could prevent eye damage. Reading books, newspapers and handwriting rather than screens allows eyes to focus in a morenormal way. Handwritten assignments and illustrations foster more creativity and stimulate different areas of the brain. Technology has uses and advantages but control is needed to maintain precious human social customs. Contact with real people, in person, is still something to be valued. Melva Stott, Anglesea.

All in this stage together A stellar cast of young local actors will bring one of Disney’s most-beloved modern musicals to life in Geelong next month. Director Shane Lee said GSODA Junior Players’ production of High School Musical would feature the region’s most talented emerging musical theatre performers. Despite their age, cast members would draw on personal life experiences as well as “amazing talent” to encourage others to follow their dreams in the highly entertaining stage production, Lee said. “It’s the story of a seemingly mismatched basketball jock and his brainiac classmate who defy the expectations of their family and friends to pursue their love of performance. It contains important themes of diversity and acceptance - all the while entertaining audiences of all ages.” Boasting infectious songs such as We’re All in This Together, Breaking Free and Stick to the Status Quo as well as some breathtaking dance numbers, Lee said the modern adaptation of the popular musical was sure to keep toes tapping long after the curtain closed. Lee, a longtime GSODA member, will use his vast professional performance experience to lead the cast of 60 singers, dancers and actors aged 11 to 17. The production will also call on the talent of vocal director Rebecca Newman and choreographers Lochlan Erard and Tess Evans who are both former juniors who have returned to the company to help foster the next generation of local talent. GSODA Junior Players is a not-for-profit company that has forged the careers of internationally acclaimed performers including Peter ColemanWright, Guy Pearce and Tim McCallum. The troupe celebrated its 50th anniversary of entertaining Geelong audiences last year. The troupe will stage High School Musical in the Geelong Performing Arts Centre’s Playhouse Theatre from 18 to 25 June.

SCHOOL PLAY: GSODA juniors present High School Musical.

An inside view Award-winning Australian performer Pamela Rabe will return to GPAC’s Playhouse stage this month starring in The Glass Menagerie. The actress, who is currently best known for her role in the television series Wentworth, last performed in Geelong alongside Hugo Weaving in the 2009 production God of Carnage. Belvoir artistic director Eamon Flack’s interpretation of The Glass Menagerie won Best Play at last year’s Helpmann awards, with Ms Rabe named Best Actress for her performance as the formidable Amanda Wing- Pamela Rabe field. Set in the late 1930s, Amanda finds herself stuck in a tiny, run-down apartment with her two adult children, a frustrated Tom and a cripplingly shy Laura. Each of the characters go on a journey to break free of the past. After a sold-out season at Sydney’s Belvoir St Theatre, Flack’s new production subverts playwright Tennessee Williams’ vision of The Glass Menagerie as a “memory play“ about loss, regret and the possibility of hope. In real time on stage, recollections from the Wingfield family apartment are translated into moments from a lost black-andwhite film. The Glass Menagerie will run from 12 to 14 May at GPAC’s Playhouse.

Raw sound of full Diesel By ALANA MITCHELSON Mark 'Diesel' Lizotte will bring the raw sounds of his new Americana album to Geelong next month. The American-born Aussie guitarist will pay tribute to the artists who have influenced his own music by putting his unique stamp on classic songs. “It’s such a broad term, Americana. It means different things to different people,” Diesel said. “After moving out here from America, then moving back and forth again, I wonder if I would have as much of a fascination in American music if I had just stayed in America all my life and never made it out to Australia.

"I think it’s safe to say I probably wouldn’t. “The music may be American but it’s very Australian what I’m doing. We’re not scared of mixing things up here and breaking the rules.” The six-time ARIA award winner opted not to listen to any of the original tracks and instead relied on his memory to find personal meaning in each of the songs he would cover using a slightly different tuning. Bruce Springsteen’s Born To Run was one of the more challenging. “It’s like someone saying, ’I’m going to rewrite the bible’. You just don’t touch it,” Diesel laughed. “But I thought, if I’m going to make an Ameri-

cana album, I may as well get in the ring with Muhammad Ali; the featherweight’s going to take on the heavyweight and we’ll see what happens. So, if Born To Run is a stranger, I’m going to go right up to that stranger on the street and kiss ’em on the lips. That’s it.” With a range of instruments readily accessible during his childhood, the consistent absence of a guitar led to Diesel’s yearning to learn how to play a six-string. “My shows are very dynamic, raucous and they feel like a full rock show. I think people can forget there’s only one guy on stage sometimes.” Diesel plays Corio's Gateway Hotel on 3 June.

EDUCATION WEEK Learning skills a growing priority

Year 6 students present their digital citizenship investigation.

Plan ahead to open doors The Geelong College’s commitment to innovation in learning in a caring environment is seeing the co-educational day and boarding school from early learning to Year 12 go from strength to strength. With wait lists at Year 7, Geelong College Principal Peter Miller is encouraging families to plan ahead. “Geelong is experiencing real growth and the demand for places into year seven in 2017 will be greater than what we are able to offer. “People will need to plan further ahead if they wish to enter in high demand years such as Prep and Year 7,” Peter said. He also encouraged families to consider Geelong College from the earliest years. “Sometimes we feel as though people don’t

know that we run an outstanding early leaning program with two classes for four and five-yearolds and two classes for three and four-year-olds - the second beginning in term two and enabling children to begin as soon as they turn three. “The fees are comparable to most early learning centres and our program, which is part of the junior school, inspires the curiosity and confidence they will need to become big thinkers.” “For Prep we encourage families to enrol as soon as they make their decision. Our junior school is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach and the small classes facilitate high levels of inquiry and engagement.” “From Year 4 our students move to the Middle School where they spend their first year immersed in an environmental education program followed

by Year 5 with a focus on Designing the Future, which offers hands-on learning in technology and problem solving, and the Year 6 media immersion which develops the communication skills and understanding required for learning into the future. These programs are developed specifically to engage all types of learners and teach core subjects by integrating them into year-long investigations, making sometimes foreign concepts easily relatable.” Explore the world through the college’s eyes at open days on Wednesday 10 August and 19 October. Find out more at www.geelongcollege.vic.edu. au or phone 5226 3156. Private tours are available on any school day.

Progressing to Prep

The Geelong Baptist College provides positive and engaging learning experiences that have been developed within a Christian framework of values and beliefs. Through the development of an inclusive, nurturing and challenging environment, the College strives to inspire high academic achievement, genuine ambition and foster each student’s individual potential - personally and academically. Our dedicated staff works diligently to develop and deliver an inclusive curriculum that addresses learning that is meaningful, engaging and relevant. Teachers encourage and challenge students to: · take responsibility for their own learning, · develop independent and group learning skills, · take risks without fear of failure, · pursue excellence, · put into practice those things that they have learned, · engage, explore, explain, elaborate and evaluate. Geelong Baptist College is located at 590 Anakie Road, Lovely Banks and can be contacted on 5276 1674.

Geelong Baptist College offers a wide range of learning experiences. 154080

EDUCATION WEEK

Quality students, teachers create outstanding results By GLEN MCKEENAN, PRINCIPAL

Find the right course for your future at AGB training. 154086

Our college is blessed with remarkable students. They provide the reason that Christian College is so widely respected throughout our community. What is the 'big thing’ at Christian College? Earlier this year I was challenged to share what I would consider to be the 'big thing’ or most significant aspect that Christian College did well. As I wondered about what I might say, many aspects raced through my mind. Would my response be our teaching staff, our Music program, the Outdoor Education and Our World offerings, our Languages other than English program, the extensive Art, Technology and Design opportunities, the recent growth and development of our Teaching and Learning initiatives leading to a 'Thinking Culture’. The list was extensive and I could keep expanding it to include our amazing Early Learning program including 'Bush Kinder’ and the experiential learning provided in our Junior Schools, the broad range of elective choices in our Middle Schools and the successful introduction of Building Learning Power or the vast VCE, VET and VCAL pathway opportunities at our Senior School. The list could go on. I firmly believe that the Christian values play a significant role in what makes our College so remarkable and that God is at the centre of all that we do. His word and love are the foundations of Christian College. This frames our teaching, guides our pastoral care and creates the environment that we enjoy and that blesses us each day. And because of all of this ... the focus of all of the areas I have mentioned and the purpose and reason that our College exists is to serve and

Mature in training

Age-old values help bring out the qualities of students’ characters. minister God’s love to our students. They are the 'big thing’ or the aspect of our College that I feel marks our success. I say with great confidence, and I hear this from many different people and from different places, that the qualities of a Christian College student are the strongest point of difference that I see above all the other things I know that we do well. After all, isn’t this what education is all about? Yes, it is about experiences, opportunities and what the students learn. But as we look to the future of our world, our society and the community we live in, I am convinced that the develop-

ment of the character and values in our students is what matters above all else. I am proud of the thousands of students I have watched go through our College in the past 25 years because of their character qualities and the fine members of society they have become. Put simply, the 'best thing’ about Christian College is the students we have the great honour to teach. Isn’t this the learning and education that matters most? For more information visit our website www. christiancollege.vic.edu.au

At Saint Ignatius College “We Model Lifelong Learning”. Upon graduation at Saint Ignatius College, it is hoped that each “Grad at Grad’, as part of their transformation into young men and women of competence, conscience and compassion, has been provided with, and hopefully generously responded to, the challenge to become a young adult who has many valued attributes including a love of learning. Academic Captain Meg Evenden is passionate about pursuing lifelong learning and believes that the college provides students with a broad, enriching academic curriculum developing a deep and rich learning, an understanding of learning styles, and skills in time management and organisation. “During the Years 7-12 we are provided with workshops and opportunities to develop our study skills, and to find out the best way of learning that works for us. Through the wide range of subjects studied in Years 7 and 8, to the elective program in Years 9 and 10, each individual is allowed to experience a variety of subject areas that could appeal to them. Once these passions are found and developed, students are then given the choice between following either the VCE or VCAL pathway in Year 11 and 12, providing each student with the foundation needed on their journey towards further learning or study. After completion of Year 12, each student leaves with the knowledge and skills that allow them to be learners for life, including in whichever vocational fields they decide to pursue.” We are proud that the hard work of our students has enabled us to be ranked among the top academic performing Catholic co-educational secondary colleges in Victoria. In Jesuit terminology, our community of both students and staff are supported in their pursuit of the “Magis”: To do more, to be more.

Love of learning is a valued attribute at Saint Ignatius College. 154100 New teachers to the college are required to undertake a year-long Performance Development Program with the support and guidance of Fran Kealey, Director of Teacher Development. The program involves creating goals and pursuing Professional Development to achieve these goals. Mrs Kealey also reports that a significant number of teachers continue to actively pursue longterm studies, in addition to the many diverse professional development activities provided for teachers to further enhance their expertise. She explains that, “It is important that we model for our students that learning is a continuous pursuit. Together students and teachers can create powerful learning environments that are rich and rewarding for both teachers and students.” Closing date for applications for 2017 Year 7 enrolments close 20 May. Saint Ignatius College is at 27 Peninsula Drive, Drysdale, call on 5251 1136.

Truck Car Rentals has an extensive range of vehicles to suit a variety of requirements, owner Graeme says. “Being a small local operation, our prices are more competitive than bigger companies. “Plus, we can offer a high level of customer service because we know the local needs.” Truck Car Rentals recently expanded its fleet to include 46 seater buses, adding to its 12 and 22 seaters. “A lot of schools around Geelong use our services when they need extra buses,” Graeme says. “We have a lot of local clubs and groups hire the smaller buses as well as families for get-togethers or outings.” Truck Car Rentals has several enclosed trucks suitable for do-it-yourself removals, requiring only a car licence. A range of light commercials and vans, tray trucks, cars and single-axle trailers for the weekend handyman are also available. “Our rates are lower during the week so that adds flexibility to small business vehicle requirements,” Graeme says.

Car services, brake checks, fixing clutches – getting these jobs done quickly, efficiently and easily requires a solid handful of essentials. One is location, or being able to get to and from the mechanic shop readily. Another is quick access by the mechanic shop to spare parts, which can readily trim a day off the wait for a car’s return. A third consideration is quality work, the fourth is friendly extra care and the fifth is courtesy pick-up and drop-off. Geelong Brake and Clutch’s Denis and Lesley Williams have made meeting each of these points articles of faith at their South Geelong business. Their clients don’t have to fight city traffic to get to them. Expert advice and product knowledge for all makes and models of vehicles – including offroad and heavy duty vehicles – makes GBC an easy choice. Superior customer service and care is the icing on the cake. GBC offers: brake rotors and pads plus rotor machining; drum brake kits and machining; clutch replacement kits and flywheel machining; and an extensive range of suspension parts; driveshaft replacement kits; and a brake and clutch hose fabrication service, all covering most vehicle makes and models including commercial vehicles and 4WDs. “We have a large range of brake and clutch parts usually on hand, making us quicker, easier to access and we take extra care of our customers,” Lesley says. “We go the extra mile to make people realise that they are important to us. And safety is the key issue too, as we all use the road”. “We‘re also happy to do no-obligation quotes.” Geelong Brake and Clutch is at 8 Dowsett St, phone 5222 7411.

Print does the job on employment 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.

SPORT Cats no stranger to game changer By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN It’s been nothing but Patrick Dangerfield and his return to Adelaide on Friday night in AFL media coverage, which suits Geelong fine. Coach Chris Scott intimated as much when he looked ahead to the week immediately after seeing off the West Coast Eagles last week. Geelong conceded as much by making Dangerfield available to the media at the luggage carousel of Adelaide airport on Thursday. And in the background is the rousing cheer sent up by the Simonds Stadium crowd when the two teams met in round 23 last year as Dangerfield had a shot on goal, anticipating his defection to the Cats. The question of how Dangerfield will be received by the parochial Crows supporters has been discussed and dissected. It’s counterbalanced by the professional manner of his exit and for a reason no one can repudiate - family. That and fishing. Oh, and surfing. Some players respond well when playing against former team-mates, others not so much. It will be interesting to see which type Dangerfield is. But Scott, who has seen him close up for some time now, thinks professionalism will win out. “Paddy is a pro and we aspire to be a really professional club so we certainly won’t be trying to manage the situation too much,” Scott said. “There will be great theatre in his return, for the fans in particular.

RIPPED: Russell Maloney carves Bells Beach at last year's Indigenous titles.

Picture: LIAM ROBERTSON

So swell that surf’s up on the coast Some of Australia’s best Indigenous and longboard surfers will gather for competition at two of the Surf Coast’s best breaks over the next two weekends. Point Impossible will host the final round of the Victorian Longboard Titles this weekend, while the Australian Indigenous Surfing Titles will be at Bells Beach from 20 to 22 May. The longboard titles organisers were rapt with a forecast of “perfect conditions” this weekend. “The field will feature a star-studded cast of Victorian Longboard riders including former Australian champions Ben Considine, Emma Webb, Greg Brown, John Lane and John Ayton,” the organisers said. Top-finishers in each division will be awarded

with a spot in the Victorian Longboard Team that will head to the Australian Surf Festival at Coffs Harbour in August this year. A total of 32 spots will be offered to the Victorian contingent, which has historically been a force at the national event. Former world tour competitor and ex-Indigenous masters champion Robbie Page said the Bells event was a “true gathering” of Aboriginal surfers from around Australia. “This is a very significant event for all us,” Page said. “To get everyone together every year at a place like Bells Beach doesn’t happen very often and that’s what makes it so special. It is a true saltwater meeting for both the men and women.”

“Paddy will be up for it but he will just go about his business I suspect.” The positive for the rest of the team is that it flies into Adelaide under the radar, with Dangerfield fielding the lion’s share of the spotlight. This is despite him sharing the lead in the AFL coach’s award with Cats skipper Joel Selwood, not someone to be underestimated. Adelaide has been considered one of the surprise packets of the season, but the reality of the closeness of the season for most sides has left it vulnerable. Adelaide's most meritorious win was over Sydney while losing to the top eight sides North Melbourne, Hawthorn and Western Bulldogs. The Crows need another top-eight scalp to maintain their claim on a top-four finish. It will be a tough ask against the second-placed Cats with the best percentage in the AFL and the second lowest points against. These Cats share the scoring opportunities like the premiership versions of 2007, with Tom Hawkins, Steven Motlop, Shane Kersten, Josh Caddy and Dangerfield all averaging at least a goal a game. Add to that the midfield depth Scott has been developing, with even ruckmen like Rhys Stanley and Mark Blicavs becoming two-way runners. Add Caddy, Motlop, Daniel Menzel, Cam Guthrie, Mitch Duncan and even Jimmy Bartel and the midfield depth matches any other side.

A large swell and strong wind made angling difficult over the past week but quality fish were still caught. Queenscliff Harbour was a great option for trevally on soft plastics. Anthony Angelevski managed a couple of quality 40cm-plus fish on Turtleback worms in the Pumpkinseed colour. The harbour also produced small squid on size 2.5 and 3.0 Yamashita jigs. Whiting continued biting well right around the Bellarine Peninsula. Weed was a problem but patient anglers prepared to regularly clear their lines were rewarded with bag-limit captures. Southern Bluefin tuna lured anglers to Apollo Bay where quality fish taken to 100kgplus were boated. Portland and Port Fairy pro-

duced good numbers of fish in all sizes, while smaller albacore were caught out around the shelf. Tackleworld Geelong’s Chris Pitman fished Mallacoota and Bemm River last week. The weather was inclement but Chris still bagged quality bream on Z-Man grubs and some good tailor on trolled hard-body lures such as the Double Clutch 75. Tim Beusmans travelled to West Barwon Reservoir, near Forrest, to discover an extremely low water level. Tim cast out a couple of carefully rigged mudeyes suspended under a bubble float, soon finding himself tight to a hard-fighting quality brown trout of 1.5kg. Tim’s fishing mate, Mick, managed a pair of smaller rainbow trout, also on mudeye. An influx of anglers at Wurdee Boluc Reservoir co-incided with a reduction in trout catches, although plenty of quality redfin were

still taken. Trent Schiller caught fish to 45cm, while Phill Walker banked his personal best, a 49.5cm reddie of 1.9kg, that took a Fish Arrow soft plastic. Michael Evans making the trip up to Newlyn Reservoir on Saturday morning, landing two quality redfin over 45cm. Michael caught both fish on Ecogear Powershad soft plastics. Over the next week anglers should consider freshwater destinations, with recent rain likely to fire up the local trout and salmon fishing. When conditions along the coast allow, salmon should be available, with some quality fish reaching 2kg available from many of the rocks and beaches. For anglers with bigger things on their mind, Apollo Bay should be a great option for largermodel Bluefin tuna.
