Film is one for the ages Lily Lunder knows how to tell a moving story - in both senses of the word. The 13-year-old film maker from Narre Warren North showed maturity beyond her years, taking out a top award recently for her powerful depiction of a boy with the rare Niemann-Pick disease.

An ice-addicted woman has held a knife to her 10-year-old daughter’s throat and held her hostage during a supervised contact visit at a government office in Dandenong, a court has heard. The woman, 38, who cannot be legally identified, was visiting her child under the supervision of a child protection officer at the Department of Health and Human Services on 4 October. She had been involuntarily admitted to hospital for a drug-induced psychosis just two months earlier. In a visitation room, the daughter showed her colouring book to her mother, who asked if she needed a pencil sharpener. The woman rose slowly, grabbed the girl from behind, put a knife to the girl’s throat and dragged her towards the door. The woman repeatedly told the officer in the room that she was going to slit the girl’s throat. “Mummy, are you going to hurt me?” the girl asked. “Yes, I’m going to kill you and kill myself.” The woman tried to use a table to barricade the three of them in the room while staff called police. The girl tried to break her mother’s hold. Police managed to pull the daughter to safety and subdued the mother with capsicum foam. While in custody, the woman later selfharmed by biting her wrist. Two weeks later, while in remand, she breached a family violence intervention order by phoning and writing to her daughter. Police prosecutor Leading Senior Constable Kerryn Savin told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court that the daughter had been taken into child protection earlier this year due to neglect and abuse from her parents. The woman had no prior convictions but an “unfortunate” childhood and family history, her lawyer Daniel Walsh said. During her 62 days in remand custody, drugs

had "freed from her system”, Mr Walsh said. She had since shown remorse, pleaded guilty and accepted her delusions at the time were unfounded and untrue, he said. She was willing to undergo any treatment and directions to be the “best mum she needs to be”. Magistrate Pauline Spencer said the charges including threats to kill, reckless conduct endangering serious injury, and false imprisonment were serious and grave. It was a serious breach of trust between her and her vulnerable child in what should have been a “positive” visit, Ms Spencer said. “This was an attack on your child. It was sustained over a period of time in the context of a supervised ... contact visit. “She was in care and everyone was trying to work towards her situation being normalised as much as possible.” Ms Spencer noted the girl’s resilience in her victim impact statement. The officer stated he was profoundly impacted by the incident in carrying out his work and everyday life, she said. The woman’s moral culpability was very high, given she knew her mental illness was induced by drug abuse. In sentencing, there needed to be a “clear message” to parents to act appropriately during supervised visits, Ms Spencer said. She rated the woman’s rehabilitation prospects as good, if her drug use was curtailed. “There have been efforts before when you were admitted (to hospital) in August and wasn’t followed through.” Ms Spencer indicated the woman would be jailed for 12 months followed by a 24-month community corrections order. Final sentencing will follow a community corrections assessment at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 11 December. If you need help call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Robbers are not welcome By Cam Lucadou-Wells Three ex-Dandenong men armed with a shotgun and machetes during a terrifying earlymorning robbery of a Narre Warren servo have been chided by a judge for abusing Australia’s hospitality. Regan Augustine, 19, and Padiet Deng, 19, brandished “very nasty-looking” machetes one that was 36 centimetres long with a serrated edge - during the hold-up about 3.50am on 23 February. Poulios Awo, 22, held a double-barrelled, 12-gauge shotgun. It was not loaded, but that was not apparent to the servo’s petrified staff, Judge Frances Ho-

gan of the Victorian County Court noted. CCTV footage of the masked robbers was a “picture of chilling menace,” Judge Hogan said. One of the attendants fled out the door, screaming for help at a nearby roundabout. He flagged down a motorist, asking them to stay with him because he was so afraid. The other staff-member hid behind the counter in vain. He pleaded: “Please brother, don’t hurt me. I have a family”. The robbers stole more than $500 cash from the till and more than $6000 worth of cigarettes. Half an hour later, they attempted a similar

armed robbery of three staff at a Glen Waverley newsagency. All three offenders, equally culpable for the crimes, grew up in conflict, violence and fear in their African homelands, Judge Hogan noted. “It is an irony that having been granted asylum as a refugee in this country you should then commit acts of brazen violence that disturb the peaceful dignity of others, causing them to fear for their safety. “Each one of you should be deeply, deeply ashamed for the serious abuse of hospitality ... shown to you in Australia which has provided refuge for you and your families.

“Your appalling conduct has caused ongoing adverse psychological consequences for five citizens who were simply going about their business earning a living.” Judge Hogan also noted the prevalence of armed robberies on “soft targets” who work late at night and early in the morning. “They are crimes of a deeply unsettling and anti-social manner and breed feelings of fear and insecurity in the community.” Awo - the oldest offender but with the lesser criminal history - was jailed for three years, with an 18-month non-parole period. Augustine and Deng were sentenced to three years in a youth justice centre.

‘Smarter commute’ on the way for Monash sufferers By Brendan Rees Six large gantries carrying electronic signs were installed last week as part of the $400 million Monash Freeway upgrade to ease congestion and create a “smarter commute.” Minister for Roads and Roads Safety Luke Donnellan, who made the upgrade announcement in Berwick on Friday 1 December, said a further 44 gantries would be installed with overhead electronic signs to change speed limits and close lanes in the event of an incident. The biggest of the gantries is 61 metres long and weighs 40 tonnes. “These gantries will form part of a massive, interconnected system that will reduce crashes on the freeway, improve incident response and safe travel time,” he said. “What we’re looking for is the sweet spot, so we don’t have the stop-start patterns.” “We’re getting the Monash Freeway upgrade done, delivering extra lanes and smarter freeway system to get people home safer and sooner,” Mr Donnellan said. He said more than 70,000 tonnes of asphalt had been laid to create 30 kilometres of new lanes, with 35 kilometres of fibre optic cable installed for the smart technology. Mr Donnellan said five gantries had been installed between Warrigal Road and Pakenham, adding the upgrade would be completed mid to late next year. “More than 20 smaller cantilever gantries on freeway entry ramps will hold traffic signals to automatically manage the number of cars entering the freeway.” Last month marked one year of major construction on the freeway upgrade. Mr Donnellan said the latest freeway management technology and an extra lane in each direction would mean a “safer and more reliable” journey for the more than 200,000 drivers that use the Monash Freeway. Asked if the yellow lines on the Monash Freeway during the upgrade were causing confusion for drivers, Mr Donnellan said there might be some “difficulty” but it was part of a “temporary exercise.” “There hasn’t been an increase in the number of accidents on the road. It’s the opposite

Shadow Minister for Roads David Hodgett said Mr Donnellan was “kidding himself” if he did not accept that the mix of white and yellow lines on the Monash Freeway was confusing for motorists. “Although it’s conceivable that Luke Donnellan hasn’t experienced the issue, living in trendy Fitzroy and ignoring his electorate of

Narre Warren North, 40 kilometres away, he doesn’t battle the increasing congestion on the Monash Freeway every day.” Maurice Blackburn road injuries lawyer Tamara Wright said the firm had a “few claims” with road accidents on the busy freeway, adding that motorists were confused with the yellow lines. She said until 2012, the old white lines were removed with a high pressure hose or painted over to ensure there was only one set of lane lines. “I’m sure the change was done for a good reason, but when we’ve got people that are

confused, we really have to question that ’is this the safest practice now?’.” VicRoads South Eastern Project director Ray Paterson said crews would be working around the clock during the holiday period between Eastlink and South Gippsland Freeway. “We’re getting a lot of work done while there is less traffic on the road over summer, and encourage drivers to plan ahead, allow extra travel time or seek alternative routes,” he said. In the lead-up to Christmas, works will be carried out at night to get the surface of the freeway ready for its new top layer to be installed.

STAR NEWS 3


… BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE The editor’s desk To those of us involved in almost daily battle with the Monash Freeway, the news of any works - the sense of any prospective relief - is as welcome as a cool summer’s breeze. But as we look at the further works announced this week, we can only wonder - how can they find 10 metres of the thing that isn’t being worked on at the moment? The general consensus is that congestion across the network has increased markedly over the past one to two months. And the answer seems to be that it’s “disruptive works" - that is, the sheer size and scale of works across the road network - that are giving us the grief at the moment. And that leads to more than a little suspicion over how well the current Monash works have been managed. We can only drive for so long - looking longingly at new empty expanses of tarmac next to us, closed off, seemingly requiring not much more than linemarking - before we begin to smell a rat. Surely, the fragile umbilical cord that connects us to the lifeblood of the city should be more robust than this. Because that word - fragile - comes up increasingly in regards to the Monash these days. It doesn’t even take an accident now. One broken-down car in one lane at peak hour - sorry, make that peak hours - is enough to see the Monash wind to a standstill like an old mantle clock with a broken mainspring. Rest assured, if those who made the decisions about the Monash drove it a bit more often, there would be a revolution. Jason Beck

Heat on hospital cladding By Cam Lucadou-Wells Monash Health is set to remove flammable cladding from Casey Hospital but states the hospital is “safe to occupy”. The cladding will be replaced from the main building facade, the sub-acute ward built in 2014 and an extension to the main building built in 2010. According to the State Government, Casey and seven other hospitals with flammable cladding will be “brought into compliance” within 36 months. Monash Health became aware of the issue at Casey Hospital in August after a review by an independent building surveyor, its spokes-

man said. “An independent building surveyor and fire engineers have assessed the buildings and certified that they are safe to occupy. “Works were immediately undertaken to reduce risk, including additional sprinkler installation.” The hospital had already been protected by mandatory fire-safety features such as sprinklers and a fire alarm system. “We will work with the Victorian Cladding Taskforce with any further audit process and implement any recommendations identified to ensure compliance is achieved,” the spokesman said. There have also been 1400 buildings identi-

fied as “likely” to have the cladding by a Victorian Cladding Taskforce. The cladding, described as aluminium composite panels with a polyethylene core or expanded polystyrene, came under the spotlight after a fire rapidly tore up the Lacrosse apartment building in Docklands in 2014. Cladding was also blamed for the horrific Grenfell Tower fire in London in June, in which 79 people were killed. Casey Council is set to audit six of its buildings for combustible cladding. Casey’s city presentation manager David Richardson said the council was not aware of any of its facilities being fitted with non-compliant cladding.

The materials used at the recently opened Bunjil Place complied with Australian standards and Building Code of Australia requirements, Mr Richardson said. “Council will audit our six public buildings that are two storeys and above for the noncompliant cladding in accordance with the Victorian Building Authority Requirements. “The majority of council’s 360 buildings are single-storey and not impacted by the proposed audit.” The State Government has directed the Victorian Building Authority to expand its inspections from government buildings to residential dwellings.

Art lovers flock to Bunjil in thousands for a fix of soul By Cam Lucadou-Wells In an indication of Casey’s untapped love of the arts, Bunjil Place Gallery has been packing in visitors in its first month. Since opening on 28 October, more than 13,000 have ventured into the gallery’s opening exhibition Designing Bunjil Place. That’s well on track towards topping the gallery’s annual forecast of 50,000, says gallery director Georgia Cribb. “We were always thinking big, but this gives us added confidence to continue our plan. “What people are saying is how wonderful it is to have this in their backyard.” The downside is for patrons, including the next-door Casey ARC visitors, who are still reporting the occasional parking crush. Casey safer communities manager Caroline Bell said digital parking signage which went live on 4 December had caused a “marked im-

Capri Blinds

provement”. She said adjustments had been made to the car parking zones in the surrounding area. Concerns from ARC visitors had dropped significantly, Ms Bell said. An ARC patron said that parking had improved since Bunjil’s opening days. However, it was still hard to find a space during shows at Bunjil’s 800-seat theatre. Casey active communities group manager James Rouse said there was much entertainment to look forward to in coming weeks, including Christmas themed events, the giant Christmas tree and nativity scene. Running five exhibitions a year, the gallery’s aim is to showcase Casey artists, as well as national and international works. Its next exhibition Let’s Play: the art of our time is a case in point, with more than 20 Australian and international artists on display. It opens on 14 December.

The Berwick Shire contractors ‘City Wide’ seem to be unable to prevent killing community tree plantings in the Wilson Botanic Park to William Road area. This morning another acacia tree lost its life to the almighty ‘whipper snipper’ due to careless attention to the job. This adds to an impressive list of close to 100 fatalities over a seven-year period in this small area alone. This simply will not do. It is not good enough to keep killing trees. We’ll be back to the same arid area of some years ago. How I wish the shire would live up to its slogan : “Greening the City of Berwick”. Geoff de Jonge, Berwick.

On page 14 of the Berwick Star News of 30 November there is an item on protecting the character of Berwick’s “Hoddle grid”. In Narre Warren, council is proposing an amendment to change a residential area from houses to four-storey blocks of units (Amendment C224). Details of the residential area are on one page out of the 245 pages in the nine documents that make up the amendment. Even this page contains conflicting information - for example a height limit of 13.5 metres is stated, then comes the phrase “13.5m height limit increased to 16m on Princes Highway frontage to limit overshadowing, overlooking and visual bulk issues.”

No bail for ‘prolific’ crime By Cam Lucadou-Wells A man with a “prolific” criminal history has been refused bail over a string of alleged thefts from cars. Ryan Eyles, 19, was allegedly found with a black ‘Just Do It’ bag shortly after it was stolen from an unlocked car parked at a Cranbourne North home in the early hours of 27 November. He faced a bail hearing at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court the next day. Eyles was arrested as he was about to leave in a taxi shortly after the alleged crime, informant Acting Sergeant Stuart Button told the court.

He had cards, sunglasses and jewellery allegedly stolen from a car parked at Cranbourne North, and bank cards from a car parked in Narre Warren South. There were also other sunglasses, cash, cards and jewellery that were suspected as stolen, the court was told. Eyles told police the items had been given to him by a “friend”. After the police interview, he allegedly head-butted a hole in a police station wall. At the time, he was on two counts of bail. His criminal history included nine indictable offences while on bail since 2015, police

claimed. He had six previous theft-from-vehicle charges and four counts of handling proceeds of crime. “He clearly hasn’t learnt his lesson,” Act Sgt Button said. Eyles was also facing charges of a $132 petrol drive-off in Clyde in which his vehicle had a false number plate. At the time, his learner driver permit had allegedly expired. Act Sgt Button said the unemployed Eyles was a heavy user of GHB and ice - though Eyles told the court he’d not used for “a period of time now”. Eyles said he was looking for work, had stable accommodation, attended all his cor-

rections appointments and had been signing up for rehab “today”. “I have a good track record at court,” he said. “I have shown remorse for everything I’ve done,” he tearfully added. Magistrate Julie O’Donnell noted Eyles had a “prolific” criminal history and had re-offended while on a corrections order. He was an unacceptable risk of re-offending and didn’t show cause for being released, Ms O’Donnell said. Eyles was remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 6 December.

Councillors fire up on $5500 Christmas lantern trip By Cam Lucadou-Wells Casey councillors are divided on a $5500 ratepayer-funded research trip to Arizona, USA in preparation for a proposed lantern festival in 2019. The trip sends Cr Wayne Smith and the council’s China engagement officer to investigate the Phoenix Light and Lantern Festival for a week in the upcoming Christmas-New Year period. It would also include Cr Smith addressing a graffiti and vandalism forum hosted by Phoenix Police. The trip is estimated to cost $5500 in airfares, accommodation and car rental. At a 5 December council meeting, mayor Geoff Ablett said the timing of the trip couldn’t be controlled - given the Phoenix festival runs from mid-November to 2 January. It was “certainly not a junket” but was

building on ties built with Sichuan Lantern Company during the council’s delegation to China earlier this year. “It’s getting business to create jobs in Casey,” Cr Ablett said. “The jobs we’re creating (about 150 a week in Casey) are getting snapped up. We need to do more.” Dissenting councillor Rosalie Crestani said she supported engagement with China but the trip didn’t meet the “pub test”. “I believe in sticking to a yearly trip. “This additional trip looks bad, (especially) at this time (of year).” Cr Crestani said she’d support a single council officer, but not a councillor, to go on the trip. Similar research on the festival’s logisitics could be achieved by conference call or online, she said.

A display at the 2017 Lights of the World festival in Phoenix. The Phoenix Festival - the largest of its type in the US - includes about 75 Lights of the World lantern displays.

The Casey version, proposed for the former civic centre site near Bunjil Place, would be smaller. It was expected to be the size of Frankston’s sand-sculpture drawcard, which attracted “thousands” of visitors, proponent Cr Sam Aziz said. The investment in the trip was “minimal” and “minuscule” compared to the ensuing economic benefits, he said. He added that successful negotiations with Chinese governments and corporations required Casey to show ongoing commitment as well as consistent political representation. Cr Smith - who will fly to Phoenix - was also part of the council delegation to China in April. “Are we serious about China or are we not?” Cr Aziz said. The lantern festival was also expected to require “some financial support” from Casey as well as a suitable site, according to a council report.

Casey Central shopping centre is set to be put on notice for late-night vandalism and misbehaviour on its site. Cr Sam Aziz raised an urgent motion for the council to liaise with the centre’s managers the Scentre Group to discuss “safety, noise, vandalism and delinquency” issues at the centre. The late-night drinking congregations were taking place at the centre’s rear in view of a residential estate, Cr Aziz said. His colleague Damien Rosario added there were reported loud noises from the centre at night.

New local laws for 2018 were discussed among councillors at a Casey Council meeting on Tuesday 21 November which to replace the existing community local laws made in 2010. One of the key changes was the establishment of smoke-free zones at Bunjil Place. But there was one change in the proposed local laws that had some councillors chuckling. Cr Rosalie Crestani announced the number of female chickens to be kept on private property would be increased from five to six chickens without a permit, adding this would allow residents with chickens to lay “an extra egg a day”.

Who do you believe? A man with a long criminal record or his mother, who he claims is mentally ill? The mum had got an intervention order on the man after he allegedly threatened to kill her and her dog. On one occasion, the man was found by police there despite an intervention order - he said he had been goaded by a text from his mum that she was throwing his stuff out on the street. “She makes it up,” the man told his bail hearing. “My mum is very sick. I’m not violent with my mum.” The judge refused bail because of the unacceptable risk to the mother. But she requested that police investigate the mother’s state of mind while the man sits in remand for the next two weeks.

Bitter end Divorces don’t always run smooth. For one South-East ex-couple, it appears a dispute has led to criminal charges. The husband stands accused of misappropriating $19,000 from the ex-couple’s joint account. He claims he had a verbal agreement to take the funds, she denies it - saying she’d accidentally deposited the sum into the joint account. Police offered the man a diversion order without conviction, in exchange for him giving back the money. He refused, is pleading not guilty and things are headed for a messy contest.

Flood a fail

More than a few wise men for Christmas By Cam Lucadou-Wells More than 100 friends of Akoonah Park Men’s Shed shared festive cheer with an impressive Christmas lunch spread. A colossal mix of meats and salads were prepared by the shed’s resident chef, with crooning Christmas tunes delivered by smooth singer ‘The Real’ Paul Hogan. There were also plenty of cold drinks to help diners cope with the sizzling sunshine at the 30 November lunch. One of the attendees was John Strachan of the Prostate Cancer Foundation - which has been educating and supporting the shed’s men for three years. The message for men to get regular checkups was getting out there, but still many were leaving it too late. “Our message is to find out your family history. If you’ve got a family history (of prostate cancer) start getting tested at 40.” Otherwise, men could take precautions by watching their weight and diet, not drinking excessively and stopping smoking. The foundation has recently funded a prostate cancer support nurse at Casey Hospital, Mr Strachan said. In turn, the shed has raised funds for the foundation’s prostate cancer research and support funds. Also in the crowd were Victorian Men’s Shed Association secretary Dave Mudge and vicepresident Barbara Look - who recently broke the proverbial ‘glass ceiling’. Ms Look said she was mindful that the sheds were formed for the sake of men’s health. She felt honoured to be part of the association’s board. Mr Mudge jokingly added that the use of language had improved in Ms Look’s presence. Top right: Maury and Ron have a laugh waiting in line for lunch. 175483 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS

State Emergency Service volunteers at Narre Warren prepared for the worst but received just a “trickle” of call-outs during the state’s deluge on 1-3 December. The unit responded to 60 jobs in Casey during the weekend including 17 in Narre Warren, 15 in Berwick and 9 in Cranbourne. Most were for fallen trees as well as water damage from leaky roofs and over-filled gutters, particularly on the morning of 2 December. “There was more like a constant trickle of jobs,” the unit’s controller Clinton Brown said. “It was a bit of a reprieve for our members after the weekend before.” Mr Brown was referring to an intense hailstorm mainly in Berwick on 25 November, which led to 168 calls for help. With vivid memories of the calamitous 2011 floods, the SES unit organised a full roster of volunteers, a 24/7 crew with further members on standby for the weekend just passed. Up to 40 people had also inquired about sandbags in the preceding frenzy. In the end, about 69 millimetres of rain was collected over the weekend at Cranbourne weather station. Mr Brown said the downpour was “substantially less than what was built up in the media”. Still it was better for people to over-prepare than under-prepare. “Once water gets inside, it’s done its damage.” The area escaped lightly compared to other parts of Greater Melbourne.

Casey Council scored a mixed report-card in the latest round of Know Your Council results. Mayor Geoff Ablett said the results showed the council as among the state’s best for waste collection, food safety and road management. It was also an improver with fewer closedcouncil decisions and improved aquatic and library facilities. However the Local Government Victoria report also marked Casey down for its sluggish resolution of planning applications. Its decision times soared from an average of 86 days to 122 days in 2016-'17. It was more than two weeks higher than the average for comparable interface councils, and seven weeks more than the state average. “The increasingly complex state planning system has meant it can take longer to complete a planning application,” Cr Ablett said. “However it is worth noting Casey has among the fewest number of VCAT appeals in Victoria, indicating we’re getting these difficult and complex decisions right.” Cr Ablett noted its “collaborative” approach led to 35 per cent fewer VCAT appeals in 2016'17 despite soaring numbers of applications. He said digital initiatives had been introduced to improve the planning process. Casey was also below average on reclaiming animals and in Aboriginal children participation rates in child and maternal health care services. It had since employed a dedicated MCH nurse to improve access for Aboriginal families.

The council stated that a large number of surrendered cats and dogs were not owned, with no possibility of being reclaimed. Casey Council rates were on average $1694 per residential property - $60 cheaper than other interface councils and $120 more than the state average. “The results ... show sound financial management despite the pressure of rate capping, and that Casey has lower rates than similar, large and growing municipalities like ours,” Cr Ablett said. He said the council had one of the most reliable and low-cost waste collection services, which diverted 52 per cent of rubbish from landfill. Closed-council decisions were down from 23 per cent to 2.6 per cent, which showed greatly improved transparency, he said.

By Cam Lucadou-Wells If you were to design a City of Casey future, what would be in your cloud-capped vision? A sample of Maramba Primary School students have lit their imaginations and thought big for a forward-thinking film at Bunjil Place Gallery. The forthright - and sweet-toothed - students put forth a donut factory, a candy-laced house, a stadium for “everyone“ and a giant school running from Prep up to university. One boldly stated he’d build a “whole new world”. The 10 students talked about what community meant to them, what they liked about their community as well as dreamed about Casey’s future buildings. The film was made by Tiny Empire Collective with the brief of giving young people a voice into the development of Casey. It was screened as part of an Archi-KID zone - with a building block play area - within the gallery’s opening exhibition, Designing Bunjil Place.

Gallery director Georgia Cribb says it’s part of a sustained push to engage with young visitors. “The thing we’re most proud of is the way young families have spent time here. “It’s designed to be very family-friendly so children and their friends can enjoy the exhibition.” Casey mayor Geoff Ablett who presented certificates to the students was particularly taken by a student’s observation that everyone should fit in, belong and have a say in Casey. He was impressed by how young people in the film embraced multiculturialism. “If you really want to make a change, you can put your hand up to be a councillor yourself or a politician,” he told them. He added most politicians worked very hard - despite the profession not getting universal rave-reviews. “Our 11 councillors all live here. We have to have the ability to put ourselves in the shoes of someone else so we can help to the best of our ability.” The exhibition closed on 3 December.

Tuning in to work By Cam Lucadou-Wells

Life skills class members James, Wayne Stevens, Barry, Lorenz, Elizabeth and Maggie. 175485

Living large By Cam Lucadou-Wells Getting out of the house makes a world of difference. None more so than for members of a Narre Warren-based Life Skills for Community Living Class. Class trainer Wayne Stevens says the weekly sessions help get people with a disability out in the community and meeting people. It also introduces them to life skills such as telling the time, catching a train, handling money, researching and the art of conversation. Some of his most retiring students at the Narre Community Learning class have come out of their shells and are now popping highfives. “I love coming in and seeing them,” Mr Stevens says. “And they like coming here.”

Being a musician, Berwick man Dave Stergo knows well the barriers to work. “You can’t just do one thing as a musician,” he says. He started his own music business, studied sound production and tapped into some newfound fame after appearing on talent show The X Factor. He created a business in which he could earn a living from covers and tribute songs, but also explore original song-writing under the entity The Winter Angel. “It’s still in the beginning and the music industry is a difficult one. “But at least I can say I’m earning more than 80 per cent of musicians - even though that’s not much.” As The Winter Angel, his mission is to sing “messages of hope”. “It’s not over-the-top positive but exploring the real issues in life I’ve experienced through my family and people I know.” But for all his initiative, he said he needed a bit of support. Apart from getting him his first paid gig, his employment agency WISE Employment gave him a mentor who helped him navigate the system. “Sometimes it’s a matter of talking.” From WISE’s example, Mr Stergo wants to help others through his own music production program. He particularly wants to empower people with a disability and elderly people. He had originally been forced to give up full-time work to be a carer for his artist wife. Little did he know he also had a mental health disorder, which has been worked through with WISE. “I’ve had to change my relationship to myself, as far as how I could keep working and then get back into part-time work.”

Dave Stergo presents a voice of hope for marginalised job seekers. 175823 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS The employment agency recently released a report that highlighted the work barriers facing people with a disability and mental health issues. The report found 20 per cent of surveyed businesses still believed people with a disability were not as capable or too difficult to employ. As a result, job seekers often tried to hide their disabilities and felt disadvantaged. “We work closely with job seekers, as well as employers to help alleviate concerns and sup-

port the integration of people with a disability into the workforce,” says WISE Employment chief executive Matthew Lambelle. “We want employers to know the positive impact it can have on a business.” Mr Stergo wants to also correct these perceptions with his own enterprise. “I feel very strongly about advocacy for people with a disability. “Working with WISE, I’ve been able to understand my limitations and not bite off more than I can chew.”

Movie maker is a winner By Kyra Gillespie A local young filmmaker has taken out first place in a national film-making competition after her third year as a finalist. Thirteen-year-old Lily Lunder the won the Live Action category for her film Losing Time in the prestigious Australia Centre for the Moving Image’s (ACMI) Screen It awards 2017. The nation-wide competition had more than 800 entries from over 3000 primary and secondary students. This was Lily’s third year as a finalist and she said she was feeling “honoured and excited” about her win. “It’s nice to be recognised for my efforts over the past few years and to know that I have improved each time,” she said. “I think entering and creating a lot of films over the years have improved my skills a lot.” This year’s ACMI theme was ‘Time’ and the Narre Warren teenager decided to make a film about a rare condition - Niemann-Pick disease - starring her younger brother, Elan. It highlights the impact of the disease on a young boy and how he struggles to deal with time loss. “I wanted to raise awareness about rare child diseases. “As the theme for this year was ‘Time’ I started wondering if there were any child diseases that were related to the loss of time and memories (such as dementia). “In researching, I found out about Niemann-Pick disease and wanted to shine a light on it and its effects. “It was good to have my brother in the film as he is always around and available to shoot. It’s not so difficult to organise things and refilm if I want to add anything because he’s right there.” The film’s unique point-of-view shooting and editing techniques is what Lily thinks got

her over the line this year. “It is quite technically advanced which seemed to impress the judges.” As scriptwriter, director, editor and producer, the creative process took Lily months of focus and hard work. “It was a few months between the script being finished and the final edit of the film being exported. “It’s a long process because there are so many layers and steps to creating a film but that’s what I love about filmmaking so much. “From when I first understood what a camera was and how it worked, I would always want to be behind it. “In many of my family videos you can hear me saying ‘can I see it? “When I was in Prep, we used to make little movies with my dolls and toys which I found fun. I had the idea of making a film in Grade 5 with my whole class and my teacher was very supportive. Then, I started entering Screen It and here I am now!” This latest achievement has further ignited Lily’s love for making movies. “I’d love to be a film-maker. Right now, I don’t know what aspect of it I enjoy the most because there are just so many - editing, screenwriting, directing, casting ... the list goes on. “I would like to get some experience or observe those working on set to get a better idea of what direction I’d go in and also just learn and become a better film-maker. “I plan to enter Screen It again. It’s a great opportunity every year and it gives you a deadline and theme which gives more direction to the film. “Next year I will be in the senior category which will have some tougher competition but I think it will be good motivation.”

Young filmmaker Lily Lunder took out first place in ACMI's prestigious Screen It awards. 175150

Narre Warren Region Business Network president Steve Osborne presents $500 to Transit’s Keith Pictures: CAM LUCADOU-WELLS Vethaak. 175786

Shelley Flett and business consultant Sue Cohen, of Lorraine Lea. 175786

Soup kitchen’s long queue By Cam Lucadou-Wells Transit soup kitchen in Narre Warren is as successful as any enterprise - just on customer growth alone. “Come to me if you need advice,” Transit’s pastor Keith Vethaak told a forum at Narre Warren Region Business Group. At Transit, demand is ever-growing. At last count, 1400 people were getting fed each week by the kitchen’s volunteers, Mr Vethaak said. Another growth niche is for a showers and

clothes washing service that visits each week. Casey is the service’s busiest area in greater Melbourne, Mr Vethaak said. “A lot of people live in cars, a lot of people live in tents and boarding houses where there’s nowhere to wash their clothes.” Families with school-aged children are another growth trend. Often they’re referred to Transit by schools - when they notice children without breakfast and lunch. They can pick up about $150 of groceries,

including fresh produce picked up from the region’s farms by Mr Vethaak. He tells of a working parent who has no money left for his kids’ lunch but for a bare slice of bread. “It’s really tough out there,” Mr Vethaak says as he thanks Narre Warren Region Business Group for $500 towards the cause. Meanwhile, the next guest speaker Shelley Flett, of Narre Warren, highlights the importance of relationships and connection with staff.

Ms Flett grew up on a dairy farm and orchard, worked in corporate banking then forged a new direction as a self-employed consultant and author of The Direction Dilemma. Growing a better culture at work took time, just like growing an orange tree, she said. Staff need to have the courage and trust to say if they think you’re making the wrong move. “If staff just nod and say yes, then you’re missing other valuable insights.”

year we stop and reflect on how fortunate we are and how there are people all over the world who are not as fortunate, or who have not been afforded the same opportunities. “We started this in the last few years after hearing from The Resilience Project about the importance of giving to others. “The Resilience Project, launched in 2013, encourages Australian adolescents and adults to look after their mental health. Founding director Hugh van Cuylenburg encourages practising gratitude, empathy and mindfulness for a happier, fulfilling life. “My wife Jo and I want to make these principles part of our family’s day-to-day life, and Christmas is a great time to remind us of this. “Chloe is still deciding what our gift will be this year.

Speaking to Star News recently, State Member for Gembrook Brad Battin wished readers a Merry Christmas and explained how his family would be embracing the Christmas spirit this festive season. “Christmas is a time for giving, and a few years ago my family decided to make giving back to the community one of our Christmas traditions,” Brad said. “We decided to do something each Christmas to help out someone else. It changes each year, from giving a gift to a local family in need, donating to charity, or inviting extra people who would usually be alone at Christmas to join us on Christmas Day. “Every year we rotate who is responsible for deciding our charitable act for that Christmas. This year my youngest daughter, Chloe, will decide how our family will give back. “The best part is that we can talk about this, as a family, each Christmas. It means that each

FOCUS ON … CHRISTMAS IN BERWICK

THIS CHRISTMAS HARRY HAS GOT ALL YOUR GIFTS SORTED

Two Berwick businesses have banded together to bring Christmas cheer to Casey’s needy families. Loraine Marshall, the proprietor of Miss Gowns Bridal and Debutante Boutique, and John McGreal and owner Dani at Zahara Rose Hair and Beauty have organised a present drive in the lead up to Christmas. The drive is an extension of John’s charity work through the John Mc Foundation. Shoppers can drop off presents for both adults and children at either business. Look for the poster in the window. The gifts will be donated to the Narre Warren charity Transit which runs a soup kitchen to help feed hundreds of needy families throughout the City of Casey each week. Presents started to trickle in last week, much to Loraine’s delight. “At the end of the day it is nice that Transit give people food, but how nice will it be for them to be able to give people a gift as well,” she said. “I wanted to do something because there is so much need in the community, especially at this time of year.” Loraine said anyone can donate and while she anticipates that most gifts will be wrapped, her staff can gift wrap presents if need be. She asked people who want to donate to

GROW BUSINESS … CASEY CARDINIA REGION

Healthy nosh with soul By Rebecca Skilton Narre Warren’s own Soul Sister Nosh is aiming to help the world get on the right side of healthy. Led by business owner and entrepreneur Caroline Towers, the organic healthy treat company is making waves in the realm of snacking with their 100 per cent organic raw balls. Handmade in-house, the company’s raw balls are made with organic ingredients, are gluten free, dairy free, soy free plus vegan and paleo friendly; with each product using a unique combination of 100 per cent plant based pure grade essential oils to create a variety of exciting flavours. And as Caroline explained, by creating a product that tastes "just as naughty and delicious as unhealthier snacks but has nutritional benefits", Soul Sister Nosh encourages customers to switch to a healthier lifestyle by “moving away from the cookie jar.” “Soul Sister Nosh is all about wanting people to snack healthy and making it really easy for them to do it,” Caroline said. “Because everyone is time poor and it becomes one of the most common things in life when you think to yourself; ‘oh I haven’t eaten, what can I grab on the run?' And that’s where Soul Sister Nosh comes in.” Currently stocking eight different flavours including Cacao and Raspberry, Cacao and Crunchy Nut, Cacao and Orange, Cacao and Peppermint, Lime and Coconut, Simply Lemon and a limited edition Christmas Nosh, Soul Sister Nosh products come pre-rolled in both standard sized packs and mini snack packs for customer convenience. And it’s this willingness and desire to fulfil the needs of customers that Caroline believes has helped to shape the Soul Sister Nosh product. “You can’t just produce something because you want to do it,” Caroline said. “You have to find out what your customers want, what they’re lacking or what they need. “And all this food is very trendy right now since people are starting to think a lot more about healthy. “They’re looking for alternative foods, so the business already had that going for it, but it was also the fact that everyone’s busy and wants to save time and that’s what we’re all about - we get that. “So I guess knowing that helped us develop the business and the product to what it is now - already rolled, snack pack sized so people can put them in their bags and really yummy.” In an industry littered with different health products, early on in her business endeavour, Caroline realised that Soul Sister Nosh needed to adopt a personality that made the brand stand out from the rest. Having had experience in both the corporate and IT industries, as well as having run another award-winning home business, Caroline conducted market testing in regards to co-

(Nosh of course being a colloquial word mostly used in the U.K meaning ‘to snack on, to eat lightly or to grab a quick bite.’) Now, Soul Sister Nosh can produce up to 350 balls in a day and are quickly beginning to appear in a number of local cafes and stores. “Soul Sister Nosh has a feel to it - there’s a bit of humour to (our products and marketing) and we hope that carries through to what we do,” Caroline said. “Because there’s a lot of business out there doing what we do so you have to find something that makes you a little bit different.”

There's always something new to try at Soul Sister Nosh, including their limited edition Christmas Nosh. 174531

SPORT

Victory for Josh at the ’G By David Nagel Berwick Primary School student Joshua Narayan is hoping inspiration and technique drawn from two international captains will kick-start a long and successful career in the world of cricket. The 12-year-old wicketkeeper batsman has had two months to remember, first earning selection in the Victorian Primary School team for the Australian School Sports Championships to be held at Barooga in early January. And the talented left-hander capped things off by leading the Berwick Primary School to victory in last week’s state championship final held at the home of cricket - the mighty MCG. And it’s two left handers, who both made their mark on the ‘G’, that have encouraged him to take his cricket further. “I met Kumar Sangakkara a couple of years ago, he was a champion wicketkeeper and toporder batsman for Sri Lanka, and left handed like me, and he inspired me to start keeping and batting at number three,” Joshua said. “And (former Australian captain) Graham Yallop is another hero of mine, he’s my coach and a great guy and his knowledge of cricket is just incredible. When I first went to him my grip wasn’t right, but he fixed it and everything has changed since then. I’m slowly mastering the things he taught me and now I just need some power.” Josh’s path to selection in the state team was a long one, first being nominated by his school before negotiating tryouts and a group cut from 60 to 20 - before the final squad of 13 was selected. And then, once he had given it his best shot, he was forced to wait to see if his dreams had come true. “There was a country game and then a metro game; we were the first game so we had to wait a few days to find out who got in and who didn’t,” said Josh, who started playing compet-

itive cricket at the age of seven. “It was late at night during the holidays and mum saw the e-mail come through, she was shocked and let me know and we were all pretty happy.” Josh says that apart from his batting and keeping skills, there’s a third element to his game that will hold him in good stead in elite company.

“My attitude is good I think, I’m always talking in the field and I always want to be out there when I’m batting,” he said. “And I stay pretty calm when I go out. I get disappointed but I don’t throw my bat when I go out, I just think about what I should have done to stay out there.” Josh puts his great attitude down to his number one supporter - his Dad Jim.

“When it comes to thank yous, my Dad is clearly number one,” he said. “He’s the one who tries to make me better every day. He looked for a good coach and we found one with Graham and he’s just passionate about my cricket and helped me with my attitude and everything to do with cricket. And my Mum and brother and sister have also been really supportive.”

Three pointers show the way for Berwick College wins By David Nagel Three pointers may play a huge role in the game of basketball, but it’s a commitment to three important points that is paying off for the Berwick College Basketball Academy after its state title success in late November. The school’s Year 7 Boys were crowned state champions after defeating St Joseph’s Echuca, 39-31, in the School Sports Victoria grand final. Berwick had five teams progress to the finals and a staggering 12 made it through to the Victorian College Championships - the most of any school in the state - a huge achievement for a program that has only been running for four years. Director of Basketball Academy, Chris Pentland, explains the birth of the program in more detail. “It all started because of my daughter to be honest,” Pentland said. “She was chased by another basketball program in the region, we were interested, but they take the kids out of their school program for 10 periods a week, which I wasn’t comfortable with. “So I designed my own program, judging the students on their basketball and academic skills, and behaviour, all evenly. The school jumped on board and here we are today. Schooling has to be number one with anything we do and, after just four years, it’s been pretty successful to date.” In April each year the college has tryouts for Grade 6 students, with 120 trying out to make a final acceptance list of 50. The school’s current

crop comes from as far and wide as Cheltenham, Drouin and Langwarrin, joining a core group from around the Berwick area in the elite program. “I think the specialised coaching we offer is most appealing, and the kids also do a full school program,” Pentland said. “The english, maths and science is the same as the other kids at the school but their PE block is modified. In Years 7 and 8 they have two sessions training with the academy, two doing fundamentals, and then a period of sport science. “In Years 9 and 10 the program slips into their elective program and then we pull it back in Years 11 and 12. Did we expect it to be this popular and grow so quickly, probably not, but when you’ve got the balance right between academic and the kids’ passion - then you’ve got a pretty good product.” The academy’s coaching staff has been littered with stars since its inception, with former Melbourne Tigers player Gerard Leonard, Lester Strong from SEABL, local Big V product Shannon Davies and Dandenong Rangers star Carley Mijovic among those to have imparted their knowledge. “And we also have Ash Arnott, who has been a college recruiter in America, and that’s a big benefit for the kids who have dreams of making it into the US college system,” Pentland said. The academy already has some impressive runs on the board, with Jaz Shelley - who will return to the school next year after two years at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra -

Shelley, a member of Australia’s gold-medal winning team at the Under 17 World Championships, is expected to receive a full scholarship at a US college next year. To cap off a great year for the school, the Year 7/8 Boys were crowned state champions at college level, winning their quarter, semi and grand finals by double digits against St Joseph’s, Rowville and MacKillop respectively. Berwick College will finish the year with six teams competing at the current Australian Schools Nationals Tournament from December 3 to 8, while a Year 10 group is currently on tour in Texas, returning on Thursday 21 December.

Big walk set By Nick Creely National walk race champion Pramesh Prasad is relentless in his pursuit of a spot in Australia’s Commonwealth Games team on the Gold Coast in April 2018. The 43-year-old from Narre Warren is not letting anything stand in his way after returning to the sport three years, and in stunning fashion. Pramesh has won countless gold medals all over the globe, displaying his dominance on numerous occasions against some of the world’s best athletes. Only recently, Pramesh returned from the Masters Games in Tasmania, stealing the show with an impressive haul of medals for Casey Masters Athletics. “I went to Tasmania, and got gold in all my walk events, and also got a silver in a run, so I was really happy with that and how it all went,” he said. Casey excelled as a whole at the Masters Games, with Pramesh capturing three gold medals (1500, 3000 and 5000 metre walks), Penny Hall also snaring three (1500, 3000 and 5000) and her husband Mike claiming four gold medals in running and high jump events, an outstanding achievement. Pramesh was a former junior champion in his teenage years, and despite giving away competing in his young adult life, has rediscovered his passion for the sport after deciding to return at the age of 40. “When I was younger, a teenager, I was competing a lot as a professional at international level, and then I stopped because of study and work,” he explained. “But in the last three years I started again, and I never thought I’d get to this high level so soon, and achieve so much in so little time. “All I wanted to do is look after my health and get fitter, and I just started and my com-

Pramesh Prasad, left, pictured with Casey Masters members Penny and Mike Hall, is eyeing off a spot in the Commonwealth Games. Picture: SUPPLIED petitive spirit just naturally kicked in. “I then went to Casey Athletics and met Mike Hall, and it’s gone from there, really.” But as Pramesh explains, all the hard work and dedication over the last three years boils down to one burning ambition - representing his country on the Gold Coast. “I’m training really hard at the moment, just to try and get ready for the Commonwealth Games - the (Australian) team won’t be named until Feburary next year, so I have another two big races coming up to prepare for that,” he said. “I’m training at least about five or six days a week, mostly in the afternoons, and then sometimes on the weekend when we have Victorian championships in summer time.” Pramesh will be competing in the Australian 50km Racewalking championships in Melbourne in just two weeks, as he builds up for the summer season. The Casey Masters Athletics group meet every Monday night at Casey Fields from 7pm, and invite anyone to come down and give it a try.

It’s all over in eight overs! By Nick Creely In last Wednesday night’s action-packed evening of DDCA Twenty20 cricket in sweltering conditions, it was Berwick who once again proved their might by disposing of Turf 3 club Hampton Park at Arch Brown Reserve. Batting first, the Redbacks simply had no answers for Bears’ marquee man Brendan Rose (5/8), who tore the visitors to shreds and proved his class with a stunning spell. Jarrod Armitage (2/9), Cory Bevan (2/15) and veteran Jarrod Goodes (1/9) each did their part as the Bears rolled the Redbacks for just 58. The Bears wasted little time in swiftly chasing the runs down, with Armitage (20) helping guide the home side to victory in just eight overs. Down at Marriott Waters, Steven Spoljaric helped push Springvale South to a comfortable victory over a gallant Lynbrook. The champion all-rounder plundered a brutal 66 to guide the Bloods to 8/138 off their allotted 20 overs, before snaring 2/29 as the Lakers scrambled their way to 7/111. North Dandenong also continued its winning ways in the short form, belting Berwick Springs away from home. Skipper Asfan Thajudeen (37), Shehan Fernando (31), Adam Amin (24) and Gayantha Wijethilaka (29) all combined brilliantly to guide the Maroons to a formidable 9/168 after batting first. The Springs managed to bat out their overs, finishing on 8/125. A gallant effort down at Sweeney Reserve wasn’t enough for Narre Warren to topple powerhouse Mordialloc, with the Bloodhounds cruising to victory. Batting first, the Bloodhounds notched up an impressive 3/167 off the back of a terrific 62 to Brendan Morris, before restricting the Magpies to 4/103 after their 20 overs. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the night’s

Close win for Narre Warren NARRE WARREN BOWLS It was a mixed day for Narre Warren Midweek Pennant with two wins and a loss. Division 2 played at Noble Park for a close 5 shot win. Jos van Hout, Ernesto Vergara, Alan Mark and Keith Mark won 21-15, while Wilma Haringsma, Philip Howard, Erik Luyters and Jim Millar won 20-15. Geoff Ampt, Wally Finlayson, Judy Naughton and Wilma Stevenson just lost 1619. Narre Warren (1) 14-57 defeated Noble Park (1) 2-49 Division 3 travelled to Chelsea for a disappointing loss. Stan Bulmer, Nick Filius, Peter Castricum and Andy Tobler were closest, going down 22-17, while Nancy Pugh, Diane Peterson, Pam Uren and Micki Horton (12-35) and Graham Peterson, Janice Moran, Rose Rasmussen and Enid Gibb (9-27) also lost. Narre Warren (2) 0-43 lost to Chelsea (1) 16-89. All weekend bowls were abandoned by Bowls Victoria.

Rasika Ilayperuma sends one down for Hampton Park. 175606 action was down at the clash between Narre North and Hallam Kalora Park, with the North defeating the Turf 1 club by 27 runs. Batting first, the North notched up 6/138 after Josh Henry’s (57) fluent knock at the top, but not even in-form batsman Thailvan Xavier (30) could guide the Hawks to victory, with Henry (2/16) starring with the ball to restrict them to just 111 in 18.3 overs. In the night’s other matches, Dandenong West (6/123) defeated St Mary’s, St Brigid’s/ St Louis (7/121) continue to surprise with another victory over Cranbourne (7/120), Heinz Southern (7/188) proved a class above Doveton North (105), Narre South (8/180) toppled Parkfield (8/165) in a high-scoring encounter, and Dingley (111) defeated Silverton (87).
