Aqueduct of hope By Kath Gannaway The upgrade of the Maroondah Aqueduct at Dixons Creek is nearing completion with Melbourne Water saying the $35 million project will mean a saving of up to 90 million litres of water every year. Work on the ageing aqueduct is in its final stages with reinstatement of the site and removal of equipment expected by the end of March. The 18-month initiative replaces a 5.7km section of the total 27km aqueduct which had become significantly deteriorated, causing frequent cracks and leaks. Previous works on the open channel were completed in 2017. Current works to finish off the final stage include constructing an access track and drainage to manage runoff. Crews are also re-seeding disturbed areas to reinstate vegetation. The new transfer system allows Melbourne Water to move around 200 million litres of water per day, the equivalent of filling 80 Olympic sized swimming pools every day, to support thousands of homes and businesses in the Yarra Ranges and outer eastern suburbs. Residents around Bleases Lane, Walters Lane, Pauls Lane and Gulf Road will have their peace, quiet and dust-free environment back once the works are finished. Melbourne Water Senior Project Manager John Sheils said he was grateful to the community for their patience during the long project. "The Maroondah Aqueduct is a critically important water supply asset allowing drinking water to be moved from the Maroondah Reservoir to Sugarloaf Reservoir," he said. "We thank the local community for their patience and support, in particular all of the land owners who have had reduced access to their land and the inconvenience of trucks and construction equipment close to their homes during

these works." "We also thank the businesses that have been impacted by these works for a significant amount of time, particularly Balgownie Estate and Yarrawood Estate," he said. While surprises are not usually welcomed by organisations undertaking multi-million dollar constructions, Mr Sheils said this project resulted in some interesting, and exciting surprises. "During excavation works for the new pipeline, a number of aboriginal artefacts were identified," he said adding that the artefacts had been independently verified and would be returned to the location where they were found, under the direction of the traditional owners, in mid-March." "It was exciting and humbling to locate these important and historic stone and slate tools at the site and we are very glad they will be able to remain there once our works are complete." Mr Sheils said the new pipeline was a significant improvement over the original open channel aqueduct. "Being able to reliably transfer water from Maroondah to Sugarloaf ensures water supply for suburbs like Yering, Coldstream, Lilydale, Wonga Park, Kangaroo Ground and Warrandyte, even as far as Doncaster and Ringwood." "The new closed pipeline saves up to 90 million litres of water every year, which used to be lost to evaporation and seepage. The closed pipe system also means we no longer have a risk of animals entering the open channel and becoming trapped and drowning." More information about the project is available at https://www.melbournewater.com.au/what-we-are-doing/worksand-projects-nearme/all-projects/maroondah-aqueduct-replacement .

Up and running in Warby By Kath Gannaway Serious runners, kids with energy to spare and some laid-back but keen walkers all took their turn on the starting line of the 2018 Warburton Up & Running event on Sunday, 25 February. The course, leaving from the Redwood Centre for the first time took the competitors through some of the most scenic trails, including sections along the Yarra River and out as far as Big Pat's Creek. The event attracted runners from all over Melbourne as well as good numbers from across Yarra Ranges with opportunities for all levels of ability to take part in the Kids' 2km Dash, 5km walk/run, 5km run, 10k run and the Half Marathon. Lesley Grimes who co-ordinated the event with Linda Dickson said the event could not happen without the Warburton CFA and Upper Yarra SES involvement and the continuing support of a great team of volunteers. She said the Redwood Centre had also proved a great venue for the race and thanked the team there for their support. Warburton Up & Running facebook for race results.

IN BRIEF The rescue crew On Saturday 24 a high angle rescue crew from Dandenong and a steep angle rescue crew from Monbulk responded to an involving a young boy who had fallen 30 metres down the Wilhelmina Falls in the Murrindindi Scenic reserve near Glenburn. Also attending the incident were Marysville SES, Yea rescue, Glenburn CFA, Ambulance, Police and DELWP services. Upon getting there a command structure was put in place and local brigades established a communications plan. Each agency had a particular skill set which when coordinated all contributed to the overall best outcome for the patient. The patient sustained minor injuries but was airlifted to the Royal Children’s Hospital as a precaution and further scans were undertaken. The early dispatch of technical rescue resulted in resources being on scene to coordinate their response and it ensured the best outcome for the patient can be provided in a timely manner. In this case, winch and transport by HEMS, but there was the risk that due to the dead trees from the Black Saturday fires, ground crews may need to move the patient to a clearing, or even undertake what would have been a long and demanding rescue operation.

Station’s farm help By Derek Schlennstedt The Lilydale Fire Brigade has joined forces to raise funds to help the lives of dairy farmers and their families struggling to survive against plummeting milk prices. Late last year, firefighters from the Lilydale Fire Brigade and the Maroondah Group of Fire Brigades - a group comprising 12 brigades across the region, donated $2760 to the Inverloch and District Lions Club as part of their Lions Need 4 Feed program, which assisted in distributing the money to dairy families most affected within the South Gippsland region. The group were hosted at Inverloch by the District Lions Club and Bill Watson of Wonthaggi CFA.

Lilydale Fire Brigade was particularly prominent in the fundraising with the brigade raising $1260 in a special fundraising event and the Maroondah group raising another $1500. The Maroondah group annually raises funds for food hampers which they then distribute to communities who are struggling from environmental disasters or economic difficulties. Secretary of the Maroondah Group or Fire Brigades, Kevin Cameron said that the group's rationale for this year's fundraiser was to focus on providing support for forgotten peoplewhich in this instance were the children of dairy families. "We try to assist people that are in need ... these farmers are finding it very hard to sur-

vive," Mr Cameron said. "Normally we concentrate on the food or hampers and sometimes feed for cattle, but we just thought maybe the kids could use a break ... it's not only the parents that are finding it tough." To that end the money raised by the brigades has given 10 children aged 8-12 the opportunity to spend a week away at the Lions Wilderness Village north of Heyfield, during the April 2018 school holidays. The adventure camp gives offers, mini golf, archery, campfire, canoeing, a flying fox, mountain biking and abseiling and gives the kids a chance to forget about the stress of dairy farming.

At 2am on Sunday morning in the Mount Donna Buang car park a Holden Commodore was set alight. Police are appealing for anyone with information to contact Yarra Ranges CIU on 9739 2300.

Car park changes Car parking and amenities for Warburton Trail users in Launching Place will be relocated to ease congestion and provide clearer information for visitors. Council will begin works in February to relocate its Warburton Trail access car park from the Home Hotel in Launching Place to behind the nearby Launching Place General Store. For more information about the works, call Cliff Overton on 1300 368 333.

On the flip side, both drivers made it out uninjured By Kath Gannaway The driver of a blue Hyundai was lucky to escape without injury after her car flipped onto its roof in Healesville on Friday, 22 February. The female driver of the car was travelling east along Maroondah Highway when she collided with the rear of a stationary BMW waiting to turn right into High Street. Police say the impact of the crash, which happened at around 4pm, propelled the BMW forward and caused the Hyundai to roll. The driver of the BWM was also uninjured. Police and emergency services attended and closed the highway for a short time while the vehicles were removed. Any witnesses to the crash are asked to contact Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol on 9739 2303.

Anyone who witnessed the crash is asked to call police. 178165

Knees: conservative plea Body

watch Jerome Higgins

Physiotherapist, Dandenong Ranges Physio, Olinda Stop! Please don't bother seeing that knee surgeon until you've really attempted and followed through with a 'decent' physio rehab.

The research I am going to present to you may be alarming, so have a seat. As a young graduate in the late 1990s, we were drilled that knee arthroscopy 'clean outs' were a given for meniscal (cartilage) tears and degenerative or wear and tear, and that ligament reconstructive surgery was needed for cruciate ligament injury (ACL and PCL). But all is not as it seemed. For meniscus tears, less than six months old, studies recently found small results in favour of surgery compared with physiotherapy and exercise for up to six months. 'No' differences were found at 12 months and longer-term follow-ups for pain and function.

Add in the effects of general anaesthetic, risk of infection, time off work etc. The disclaimer, and really the only reason to have surgery for a torn meniscus, is the presence of a mechanical lock or block in movement that wasn't there prior to the injury. For degenerative or osteoarthritic knees, the evidence has been around since 2002 that arthroscopic surgery does not work. More recent studies suggest for nearly all of these patients knee arthroscopy was no better than exercise therapy. Knee replacement is the only definitive therapy, but it is reserved for patients with severe disease after non-operative management has been unsuccessful.

And the outcomes for surgery are always better combined with a pre-operative period of physiotherapy and exercise (pre-hab). Similarly, the outcomes for ACL and PCL repair after two and five years post-injury is better for patients who undergo physiotherapy and exercise and have no surgery, or is delayed after a period of 'pre-hab'. The only guidelines for having a knee reconstruction for ACL or PCL tears is if you participate in a high level activity that requires sudden stopping and pivoting (like AFL, netball, basketball, volleyball, gymnastics) or have pain.

Clean up our place

The campaign for Eildon has begun with sitting Liberal member Cindy McLeish making policy statements ahead of the November election, and the Labor party announcing Yarra Junction resident Sally Brennan as its candidate. "I believe I'm a strong community candidate for Eildon, with my head around the issues that people face," Ms Brennan said. One of those issues is the roll-out of wire rope barriers which Ms McLeish last week announced would be suspended and reviewed if a Liberal Nationals Coalition was back in power in November. Labelling it a 'botched' job, Ms McLeish has called on the Labor Government to immediately suspend the rollout citing complaints from motorists and emergency services volunteers as the reason. She said concerns were around barriers being installed in the wrong places, without proper planning, making some roads more dangerous rather than safer. The review would include consultation with key stakeholders such as the CFA and RACV Ms McLeish said. Specific concerns included access for emergency services, compromising motorcycle safety, inhibiting drivers pulling over when needed and fire risk from vegetation growing under the barriers. Ms Brennan said road safety initiatives were done in conjunction with the relevant authorities and experts. She said VicRoads was rolling out the barriers in consultation with the CFA. "We draw on expert advice from a range of stakeholders such as police and TAC and I think you need to be a bit more specific than just saying it's 'botched', particularly given that it's already been proven that they save lives," she said. "I have driven all over Eildon and have not seen any evidence of a botched rollout of the bar-

Mayor Len Cox said Clean Up Australia Day was an important reminder that caring for the environment and keeping it rubbish free was everyone's responsibility. "It's important that we all lend a hand to clean up, fix up, and doing everything we can to help conserve the beautiful Yarra Ranges environment," Cr Cox said. "Our creeks, parks and reserves, trails and paths, schools and community areas should be rubbish free for everyone to enjoy."

Wired for campaign

Down to the wire? Labor candidate Sally Brennan is throwing her hat into the Eildon electorate ring. 178148 riers, and have not heard from anybody that it is botched. "People are happy that the mortality on those roads is now being addressed," she said. Ms Brennan said she was keen to run again and to build on the work the State Government has

done and keen to build on the success of the last campaign. "I still think there is work that needs to be done in Eildon and think it is important that if the Andrews State Government is returned Eildon has a member who is part of that government," Ms Brennan said.

By Derek Schlennstedt Businesses and schools across the Yarra Ranges can book in their flu shots through Council's upcoming Corporate Immunisation Program. The program runs from April-July and involves Council's immunisation services visiting workplaces and delivering the flu vaccine. Yarra Ranges Mayor, Cr Len Cox, said that staying up-to-date with annual flu vaccines can minimise the risk of catching the virus. "We know that there are many strains of the flu virus around at any one time, but being up to date with vaccinations can give you the best shot at avoiding the illness," Cr Cox said. "This helps stop illnesses spreading in the workplace and supports employees by not only protecting them but their family as well. "Having the flu vaccine can also protect vulnerable young, elderly and sick residents in the community, by stopping the virus from being passed on. "Last year, we had 26 businesses and secondary schools utilise the program, and we look forward to helping our community keep the flu at bay for another year." A minimum of 10 staff are required for the Corporate Immunisation Program, at $25 per dose of the vaccine. This fee includes travel to the workplace and division 1 accredited immunisation specialist nurses administering the vaccines. For more information, or to express interest in the program, visit goo.gl/Xhhd4c or contact Immunisation Services on 1300 368 333.

As part of our plan to put the interests of law-abiding citizens first, the Liberal Nationals will introduce a 'Victorian Sex Offenders Public Register' that will publicly disclose certain details of adult serious sex offenders, including photographs, identifying descriptions and the current area where they live. As part of the establishment of the public register, the new Commissioner of the Serious Sex Offender Public Register will review all registered sex offenders and assess which ones pose a sufficient risk to community safety to warrant public disclosure.

the Register. This element is an extension of what is currently in operation today with penalties for misuse of information by applicants to include up to 10 years imprisonment.

Take a survey

Badger Creek plan By Kath Gannaway A community meeting at Badger Creek on Monday evening, 5 March, will look at what happens in the community over the next three years. After a year of community events to bring people together and find out what they like best about Badger Creek, and their ideas for making it even better, the Badger Creek Community Planning Group (BCCPG) is inviting community members to take part in a workshop to decide on three or more projects for

the next three years. Around 300 community members have let the BCCPG know what they value and would like to see more of, so there is some solid ground-work for deciding what happens next in Badger Creek. The meeting is also an opportunity for residents to meet new people, share supper, and go in the draw for some door prizes, but mostly it will be chatting and thinking about what would make Badger Creek a more vibrant place than it already is.

Some of the ideas that have been floated include an annual festival, pop up cafe, food co-op, open gardens event and reinvigorating local public spaces and parks. The meeting will be held at the Badger Creek Primary School building from 6.30pm to 9pm and organisers would like people to register for catering purposes, and to organise activities for children if needed. Register by email to badgercreekcommunity@gmail.com, or phone Doris on 0400 494 966 .

Are you a parent or caregiver with children in your care? Yarra Ranges Council needs the help of Yarra Ranges' residents to identify key priorities and make the best decisions to improve services and facilities for families and children of 0-8 years old. Complete the Parent and Caregiver Survey for your chance to win a Healesville Sanctuary family pass. Enter your details at the end of the survey. Every parent or caregiver with young children is invited to tell council about their experiences. Yarra Ranges Mayor Len Cox said the information would help council to better understand the services and supports required by families in the municipality and would specifically contribute to the development of the 2018-21 Early Years Strategic Action Plan. "Participation from residents in the survey will be greatly appreciated and will ensure the action plan reflects the current views of families," Cr Cox said. Launching Place mother of two, Melissa Jones, took the survey and provided council with feedback about accessing mothers' groups after her second child and having more options to connect with the community as a mum. "Council's Linking Learning from Birth to 12 years for children in the Upper Yarra provided me with plenty of connections to other mums," Ms Jones said. "I felt like I had a voice and that my opinion matters. It would be great to have more opportunities like this." The high school teacher said she enjoyed the annual events held by council like the Children's Week Teddy Bears Picnic. The survey closes at 5pm on 5 March.

Robbie Williams wows ’em By Derek Schlennstedt At 44 years of age, 13 studio albums and seven number one singles, it's little surprise that Mr Robbie Williams's presence is enough to send a crowd into hysteria. Hysterics was exactly what he sent the crowd into when he appeared for his first solo debut tour in 21 years at the Rochford Day on the Green event, on Thursday 22 February. After getting the audience upstanding for 'The National Anthem of Robbie' the entertainer entered the stage wearing a glittering boxer's robe and had the swagger of a champion who was keen to give audiences a once in a lifetime experience. That experience was exactly what the audience received and together with his eight piece band and bevvy of glamorous dancers and back-up singers, the packed-out Rochford audience enjoyed over two hours of a total entertainment package that only Robbie Williams can deliver. The gloves were soon off, and the glittering

Sheppard took the stage as part the support act for Robbie Williams and had audiences dancing to the hit Say Geronimo.

The resident Rochford DJ brought the tunes before the main acts arrived.

Wearing a glittering boxing robe and displaying the swagger of a boxing champion, Robbie Williams KO'd the packed audience who came to see him at Rochford Winery.

robe was stripped down to a black kilt and a black singlet, and after opening with hits, Welcome to the Show and Let Me Entertain you, Williams had the audience in the palm of his hands. Paying homage to "his idol" George Michael who he declared his love for in more than an explicit way, Williams did a magical rendition of Michael's hit "Freedom". Known for his interaction with the audience he was quick to quiz an audience member on the lyrics to 'Come Undone' and even invited a star struck fan from Melbourne onto stage to sit beside him while he serenaded her with 'Somethin' Stupid'. From a poignant cover of Neil Diamond's hit song, 'Sweet Caroline' where he was joined by his comedian/musician father Pete Conway to a backlog of hugely successful hits - Robbie Williams has proven once again why audiences flock to see that unmistakable charm and stage presence that makes the perfect recipe for a magnificent show and which on this instance had truly KO'd the packed venue.

Robbie Williams played to nearly 12,000 people at Rochford Winery.

Art that gives new life By Derek Schlennstedt The animals they work on may appear still and lifeless, but this weekend taxidermists will exhibit their best lifelike and preserved animals at the York on Lilydale. A menagerie of stuffed birds, fish, and mammals will descend on The York as part of the fourth annual Australian Association of Wildlife Artists Australian Taxidermy Championships. Organiser and President of the Australian Association of Wildlife Artists, Dennis Grundy said the championships would showcase up to 90 items of "animal artistry" made by enthusiasts from around Australia and even as far as New Zealand and China. Mr Grundy, said that while it was a competition between some of Australia's most prestigious wildlife artists it was also an educational event for those who were just starting out in the industry. "I started this competition for education purposes too; there's no real taxidermy education here in Australia, and everyone is virtually self-taught ... It's not a big industry, where as if you go to the United states and every second corner there is a taxidermist so they have all the new and best techniques," said Mr Grundy. "For us to get the new techniques we need to go over there or what we're doing now, bringing these judges out means that they can run their own seminars in their distinct specialities to teach us the new tricks." Though, there are still awards for first second and third and the competition is broken up into different divisions depending on the type of animal. "There are three divisions, novice and junior division, open division is for your normal taxidermist that does a lot of commercial work and then you have the masters which is the elite class we get into and that's what we all aspire to get too."

A Silver Fox, Nyala and Marlin make-up a few of Dennis Grundy''s impressive previous award winning animals. The animals on display at Mr Grundy's workshop look far from stuffed and many had awards from previous years - the level of skill and expertise in bringing these animals back to life is impressive, and the more realistic they look the better they score. "We have three different specialists/judges, one does birds, one does fish and one does mammals." "They're all looking for the wow factor ... it's all about knowing your animals, and making sure you get that animal to look as realistically alive as possible. "Something that looks like it has motion for example looks more alive ... if you try to per-

ceive a walking animal, you want to see where it was and where it was going, if it's static, it's just static. "Then there's the stability of the mount, if it rocks, it's not stable. It's all got to be stable and anatomically correct, all these things are important." An artful tribute to the life of an animal through the beauty and reality that it is captured in, the niche craft of taxidermy is often misunderstood and stereotyped. Mr Grundy said that the competition hopes to dispel some of the perception that Taxidermy is just about about blood and guts. "There's so many different trades in it;

Picture: DEREK SCHLENNSTEDT

there's preserving the skin, you become a seamstress for the sewing, then there's a bit of pottery and using clays properly, and then there's the artistic side of airbrushing and creating a background and the grooming of hair patterns," he said. "It's about recreating something that has unfortunately passed away, and to breathe new life into it ... taxidermy isn't just blood and guts; it's an art form." The exhibition will be open to the public from 12 to 5pm on 3 March and 10am to 4pm on March 4. Entry is $5 per person or $10 for a family and the event will be held at the York on Lilydale.

Bowls is the new Blues By Kath Gannaway Carlton footballers took time out from the rough and tumble of pre-season training on Wednesday, 21 February trying their hand at lawn bowls as guests of the Yarra Junction Bowls Club. The visit was part of a two-day community camp in the Yarra Valley which saw 25 players visit local schools, football clubs and other community groups to share their skills, and in the case of bowls, learn new ones. "I think every one of them has a good future in bowls," was club president Peter Willis's prediction, and while he admitted that could be some time down the track for the

current crop of Blues, as a general rule he said people take on bowls too late in life. Blues forward Patrick Kerr visited the Woori Yallock Football Netball Club where two of his uncles, Peter and Greg Kerr, played. He started with Carlton two years ago and after playing forward with the VFL last year, and a hip replacement, says 2018 is looking good. Matt Lobbe, in his first year with The Blues after transferring from Port Adelaide was also happy to be reconnect with the Valley. His dad, Mark, grew up in Yarra Junction and his childhood was spent in Emerald.

"I played for Emerald and Monbulk in the juniors, so played against all of the junior teams up here," he said. The camp, he said, was an opportunity for the players to relax a bit, visit schools and run some footy clinics. "It reminds you of where you came from," he said. "We all remember when we had AFL players come and visit our schools or footy clubs. “These young players are physically fit and have good eye-sight, but there are lots of ways also that people of all abilities can keep going and continue to play bowls,� he said.

ENTERTAINMENT

Celebrating art of noise By Kath Gannaway Through her role as host of the Art Journal show on Yarra Valley FM 99.1, Healesville storyteller Cora Zon has an intimate insight into the world of Yarra Valley artists and their place in the community. "Curiosity and creativity are the qualities that inspire us to build connections and community," she said. Those qualities underpin the Community Spirit Art Exhibition which opens at The Memo in Healesville on Friday night, 9 March, at 6pm. The exhibition leads in to The Art of Speech Community Festival, hosted by Healesville Toastmasters Club, on the weekend of April 13 to 15. "I had a long-held dream to create an art and storytelling festival in Healesville," Cora said. Cora and fellow Toastmaster Kim Harris have been exploring how we can all become more conscious of our ability to make positive change during a segment of the Art Journal show called The Experiment. "We chose The Art of Speech Community Festival as our goal and shared the process live on air," she said. "With support from fellow members of the Healesville Toastmasters and the Yarra Ranges Council the dream will soon be a reality." Kerryl Shirley is one of the artists whose work will celebrate a local community group. She said she had no trouble picking a community group. "The Lions Den Op Shop is my home away from home," she laughed when asked about her choice. "I love it ... I'm a mad collector of junk and stuff and they have great junk and stuff, but more importantly, they are just really lovely people. "When you go in there you see that it's not only the op shop, they do so much for the com-

Elaine as the main figure." "It's like a social network on lots of subtle levels." The artists and community group representatives will be interviewed on radio on Thursday mornings and will give short talks about their inspiration and community involvement during the festival. The Festival celebrates the use of the spoken word with a feast of family-friendly enter-

tainment starting on the Friday the 13th with a 'Spooky Stories' night. Over the weekend there will be lots to see and do from storytelling, poetry, games and zinemaking to speeches, workshops, a community debate, Toastmasters demonstration meeting and comedy dinner that is registered as part of the Melbourne Comedy Festival.

I proclaim this a failure Sunshine on Leith Starring George MacKay, Kevin Guthrie, Freya Mavor and Antonia Thomas Rated PG Structured around the songs of the band The Proclaimers, Sunshine on Leith is a spirited yet insubstantial Scottish musical from 2014, and was screened at the Healesville Memorial Hall by the Yarra Ranges Film Society (YRFS) on February 20. Two British Army servicemen, Davy (George MacKay) and Ally (Kevin Guthrie), must weather various personal and relationship troubles after returning home to Edinburgh. Sunshine on Leith has endearing, well-developed characters, beautiful cinematography and some funny moments. I also like the film's focus on independence and personal callings, and how it frames Ally's military service and his girlfriend Liz's (Freya Mavor) ambitions in medicine as equally valid. mailcommunity.com.au

However, there is very little sense of enduring conflict, and the musical sequences, while initially fun, become wearying due to how many there are (a whopping fourteen) in quick succession. The film also feels emotionally manipulative at times, placing an excessive level of the burden on its female characters to resolve their relationship problems. The onus is not on Jean (Jane Horrocks) to live with her husband Rab's (Peter Mullen) past infidelity, as she wasn't the one who betrayed their trust, and Davy even repeatedly asks his girlfriend Yvonne (Antonia Thomas) if she wants to make things work in the climax, despite him being the one who refused to compromise. *The YRFS screens an acclaimed classic or foreign film every month at the Warburton and Healesville cinemas. - Seth Lukas Hynes

The Yarra Valley Craft Group of the CWA is celebrating the organisation's 90th birthday with a Craft Exhibition at Warratina Lavender Farm. The five branches that that make up the Yarra Valley Group, along with the Wandin branch which is also a grand old age at 87, are presenting the exhibition from 3 March to 18 March, with a display of craft that both harks back to the traditional craft of those original times, to examples of new and creative craft skills. The Country Women's Association of Victoria was formed on 12 March 1928 out of a concern for women living in isolation and difficult times. The work of the Association has changed over time, however many of the traditions remain constant and relevant. Today there are more than 5000 women working state-wide in 300 branches continuing to contribute in many diverse ways

Help students stay safe Thousands more Victorian students will be taught how to stay safe online with the rollout of the successful cyber-safety eSmart program to every school in the state, thanks to a recent funding boost from the Victorian Government. Premier Daniel Andrews and Minister for Education James Merlino this month announced an additional $2.5 million to enable all Victorian schools - including government and non-government - to use the Alannah and Madeline Foundation's eSmart program for free, meaning almost 1 million students will benefit from it every year. This is on top of the $12.2 million that has already been provided and has seen 71 per cent - or 1,569 - of Victoria's 2,246 schools already using the effective and popular eSmart cyber-safety program. eSmart provides support for government, Catholic and independent schools to create cyber-safe environments for their students through policies and practices encouraging students to use technology responsibly. This includes helping schools to: create their own plans, policies and procedures, access the latest resources and tools, as well as record, track and report on their progress in achieving eSmart status. With our kids now accessing the internet and social media at unprecedented levels, programs like eSmart to help them make smart choices online are more important than ever. This is in addition to a suite of Victorian anti-bullying resources being brought together under the Labor Government's new $7 million Victorian Anti Bullying and Mental Health Initiative, including Bully Stoppers, Safe Schools, Respectful Relationships and new initiatives to tackle racist bullying. Around one in five young people experience bullying, affecting their academic per-

Premier Daniel Andrews said; "We want every Victorian child and young person to stay safe online - that's why we're stepping in to provide this additional funding, because nothing is more important than the safety and hap-

piness of our kids." "This is about giving our kids the practical support and advice they need to stay safe online and prevent bullying." Minister for Education James Merlino said; "We're extending eSmart to every school in

Victoria so thousands more students every year can get the cyber-safety support they need - for free, in their school and supported by their friends and teachers." "We have an obligation to do everything we can to make our schools a bully-free, safe environment."

Freedom of human spirit The Little Yarra Steiner School (LYSS) strives to serve the freedom of the human spirit by providing a balanced and disciplined environment in which a full range of academic and creative subjects blend to nourish the whole child. Based in the beautiful Yarra Valley, Little Yarra Steiner School is co-educational and founded on Christian spiritual principles as given by the Austrian philosopher and educationalist Dr Rudolf Steiner. Steiner schools work on developing the whole human being, to give each child the tools to develop themselves so that they will succeed at whatever it is they choose in life. Students are offered a wide array of educational experiences in addition to academic subjects, such as outdoor education camps, singing and instrumental music, drama, hard and soft handcrafts, movement and art, to name a few. The breadth of each child's education contributes to a well-rounded and comprehensive skill and knowledge base. The foremost aims of Steiner Education are to instil in each student a love of learning and to encourage them to ask questions in order to develop their own ideas and to cultivate a healthy respect for themselves, others and the world in which they live. These aims are woven through a nationally accredited curriculum designed to bring rich educational experiences, tailored to the needs of each individual student. The Little Yarra Steiner School also seeks to encourage a thriving school community and a healthy school culture through mutual support and affirmation of parents and community members.

SPORT

Powerhouses go for broke By Chris Anderson Inconsistent weather hampered proceedings on the weekend for cricketers around the Yarra Valley, with dark skies and persistent rain affecting most games. The big clash in the Yarra Valley's top grade, DJ Strachan Shield, was the first-versus-second clash between Warburton-Millgrove and Mount Evelyn being played at neutral territory at Woori Yallock. After playing off in last season's decider, the two teams have once again been the clear frontrunners for the season. The players certainly delivered on day one. The Burras elected to bat first and initially battled through some disciplined bowling and some tough seeing conditions. Star pairing Sean Humphrey (45) and David Lever (30) gave their side the perfect platform for a big score as they saw off a quickly deteriorating new ball. Gareth Fraser (2/51) was able to breathe life into Mount Evelyn's challenge removing the openers; and with the score at 2/86 off 43 overs at tea, the innings was set for an intriguing innings. With wickets in the bank, Warburton-Millgrove upped the ante and found scoring a little easier after the break. A string of useful innings from Liam Barnard, Ben Lever, Tim McKail and Carl Morgan ensured a lift in tempo, while regular wickets, particularly to Chad Witherdin (4/54), ensured the final total would blow out to unchaseable proportions. When stumps were drawn, the Burras had posted a commanding 8/245 on the back of a team performance with the bat. An old fashioned blueprint. Wickets in hand early, flourish at the end. By no means are the Mounters out of this contest. The visitors also possess a potent batting line-up, and will be looking to develop their innings in a similar way. It will be a difficult chase however as the Burras will look to tighten the screws, and a score of 245 has them well and truly in the box seat. Healesville and Seville have endured a tough season, and both teams would've eagerly viewed their fixture as an opportunity to gain some late pride after a morale-sapping season. Healesville batted first on their turf, and, much like Warburton-Millgrove, worked extremely hard to produce a competitive total. After an early arm wrestle, Matt Hadlum removed Brenton Damrow, and Jayden Lawry was run out after a bright start to his innings to reduce the score to 2/32, a precarious position for the Bloods. Scott Hamer has been the best with the bat for Healesville this season and he produced again when his side needed it. Ably supported by Dale Senior (33), the pair put together an innings-defining partnership. They were able to up the scoring rate, keeping wickets in hand, and adding a valuable 87 runs to the scoreboard. With rain creating havoc in and around the tea break, it became clear the game would be reduced in overs, therefore upping the urgency for quick runs. Senior and Hamer (64) fell in quick succession putting the pressure back on the rest of their batting order. The tempo had been set, though, and Ash Hamer (37) and Liam Daly (30) took the reins and continued to drive the score onwards. Another half-century partnership followed and the Healesville innings forged on. With stumps fast approaching, the Bloods lost wickets in the pursuit of quick runs. Mark Sandfort (3/55) made sure thing wouldn't get out of hand for Seville; and when the dust settled, Healesville finished with a score of 8/215. With the game reduced to 60 overs, this looks to be a more-than-useful score. With the quick scoring rates of the mod26 MAIL

ern game, Seville won't be intimidated by the chase, but they will need a much more concerted effort with the bat if they are to get anywhere near the total. As luck would have it for this round of fixtures, all teams in Strachan Shield were posted to play their closest competitor on the ladder. That left the final game of the round between the third placed Yarra Junction and the fourth placed Yarra Glen. Both teams have been the big improvers this season and would be viewing this game as a perfect tune up with finals fast approaching. Unfortunately, for players and spectators alike, the persistent rain put an early dampener on this contest with the game only just beginning before they were forced off. With little improvement in the weather, play was abandoned during an early scheduled tea, and play will be restated as a one day contest next week. In Finger Trophy action, Wandin had their opportunity to prove that they could match it with the big boys with finals only two games away as they hosted Woori Yallock. The Bulldogs batted first, and battled to put together significant partnerships. Jimmy Freeman has proven to be his team's best bat this season, and this was again the case as his aggressive innings of 69 gave the final total some much needed beef. The rest of the Wandin batting order gave some support, but nothing of substance. When the last wicket fell, the Wandin total sat at 152, not a disgraceful total, but, nevertheless, short of par. Woori Yallock bowled well in tough conditions and regular wickets, particularly to Marty White (3/17) and Cal Ferguson (3/38), ensured that they would keep the total in check. With an impressive top order, the Tigers would be well and truly comfortable with the task ahead of them, the key for Wandin is to get through the top heavy order early, and they could find themselves in this contest up to their eye balls. The fixture between Coldstream and Launching Place looked to be a massive mismatch with both teams experiencing season at polar opposite ends of success. Coldstream have been clearly the best team in Finger Trophy, while Launching Place have been brave, but have been unable to match it with the other teams. Coldstream batted first in this contest and couldn't quite stamp their dominance. Stephen Phillips was the lynch pin to the batting with a fine unbeaten half-century, while he was ably supported by Leam Doughty who provided 33 runs to the total, but the rest of the Crocs battled against a persistent Launch attack. Wickets to Jordan Birnie (3/42) and Anthony Sequeira (2/17) kept the Crocs on a short leash as the home team would be well pleased with their efforts. With rain stopping play with the score on 5/120, all results are still in play. With Phillips still at the wicket, Coldstream still have the opportunity to push their total to an imposing one, whilst declaring with enough time for their bowlers to chase a victory. Launching Place on the other hand are only a couple of wickets away from breaking the innings and possibly giving themselves an achievable chase. Along with local action this week, the cream of the Yarra Valley have been involved in VCCL Country Week action. With a change to game structure and competition structure, the boys from the Valley looked forward to the challenge the week provides. Unfortunately, the challenge was on another level as the Yarra Valley battled in each of the contests. Day one saw former local legend Dan Mock take his brethren apart with a scintillating century leading Leongatha & District to 6/329. The Valley boys battled gamely in chase in the back of Kane Jones' blistering 87, but their efforts were futile as the finished well short at 9/240.

Former Woori Yallock star Daniel Mock was in scintillating touch against his former association. Day two saw a contest with neighbours Ferntree Gully and District, and again the Valley were caught short against the eventual champions. Ferntree Gully batted first and amassed an impressive 6/355 on the back of a Tom Boxell century. The Yarra Valley were never in the chase, despite solid contributions from David Lever (47) and Dean Oliffe (49), with their score closed at 9/166. Batting first on day three against Shepparton, the Yarra Valley were looking for a change in fortunes. The Yarra Valley cobbled together a useful total of 8/206, mainly on the back of a 78-run partnership between David Lever (55) and Kane Jones (49). The total would prove to be well short as Shepparton reached the total on the 35th over with six wickets in the back. Nick Bark gave his all to give the team some spark with 3/44, but his efforts were in vain. That left the team in a precarious position for day four. Under the new structure, they would face South West in a game to define who would stay in Division 2 of the competition and who would slip back to Division 3. With that at stake, the Yarra Valley produced their best performance with the ball of the week. Battling to post a defendable score, the Valley limped to 9/138, far from an imposing total.

HiLux Rugged X - developed locally to suit Australian tastes (pre-production model shown).

Heavenly ‘halo’ is rugged other heavy-duty components. It is joined by HiLux Rugged, which is focused on toughness and off-road performance. It provides enthusiasts with an ideal vehicle for getting off the beaten track that its aggressive front-end design, including a steel bull bar. A third new model, the premium and sporty HiLux Rogue was styled by the Australian design team and developed in close collaboration with Toyota engineers in Thailand. The dynamic and recreational styling of the Rogue is tailored to many markets around the world - another example of the strong capability that exists within Toyota's local operation. Toyota Australia's product planning and development general manager Rod Ferguson said the HiLux project highlighted the local team's capability to develop engaging models that address the specific requirements of Australian buyers.

"Our team understands local customer usage and tastes, the extremes of our local environment as well as requirements for off-road use, unsealed roads and the challenges of dust and water crossings," Mr Ferguson said. "They have developed these high-strength components and integrated them fully to build on the strength and durability of HiLux while maintaining the performance of key safety systems. "For example, the Rugged X bash plate is made from high-tensile alloy, significantly improving protection from rugged terrain while minimising weight increase. Local engineering and testing also ensures it works in conjunction with the steel front bar and existing underbody protection." Mr Ferguson said the project was a logical extension of the local team's work in producing the HiLux Tonka concept, unveiled in March last year.

He said the new models also benefited from the Australian team's extensive involvement in developing the current-generation HiLux, including suspension, underbody protection, tuning of electronic safety systems and 650,000km of local testing. "It was natural for our team to focus on HiLux: it's Australia's best-selling vehicle and owners customise their HiLux more than any other model in our range," he said. "In the spirit of the concept car, we've further enhanced the off-road toughness of the already highly capable HiLux. "Australian buyers will also appreciate the peace-of-mind knowing that these new vehicles have been developed to Toyota's rigorous standards, will be certified to Australian Design Rules and attract full warranty coverage," Mr Ferguson said.

Toyota's three new 'halo' HiLux variants due in April this year have a strong Aussie accent due to an extensive development program carried out by the company's Melbourne-based designers and engineers. Aimed at off-road enthusiasts, the comprehensive upgrades that result in the new HiLux Rugged and Rugged X variants were designed, engineered and validated in Australia with support from the parent company in Japan and Toyota in Thailand. The development program involved computer simulations, prototype manufacture, bench testing and real-world evaluation to confirm strength and durability of the vehicle and individual components. Heading the new models, HiLux Rugged X lives up to its name by incorporating a hightensile alloy bash plate, winch-compatible steel front bar, LED driving lights, recovery points, rock rails, load-carrying sports bar and
