Calls for pipeline By Jed Lanyon Coldstream Water Supply Scheme Inc (CWSS) is calling on major political parties contesting the upcoming federal election to commit $10 million to fund the Coldstream Recycled Water Pipeline. The Coldstream Recycled Water Pipeline would involve the construction of 46 kilometres of new water distribution pipeline throughout the Coldstream district. CWSS state that he pipeline would carry treated wastewater from Yarra Valley Water's Lilydale Sewage Treatment Plant to 50 on-farm dams in Coldstream and Gruyere for irrigation purposes.
CWSS president Cliff Riseborough said the pipeline scheme was a community driven initiative that Council had supported and been advocating for over a number of years. A business case undertaken in 2017, involving extensive community consultation, indicated a strong level of support for the pipeline. Recent advocacy efforts had also successfully secured $250,000 from the federal government for a feasibility study to finalise design and planning for construction. "Water security poses a significant risk for many businesses in the Yarra Valley, which are major contributors to our local economy and account for a significant proportion of Yarra Ranges' Gross Regional Product, worth an esti-
mated value of $5.22 billion," Mr Riseborough said. "This community led solution would support a diverse range of agricultural businesses, including wineries, strawberry growers, fruit orchards and equine facilities. "It is backed by a number of state government agencies and is shovel ready, with a full business case including design details, engineering plans and an environment management plan - all it needs now is the funding to make it happen," he said. "With the Federal Election drawing closer, we call on all major political parties to throw their support behind our local growers and
commit to funding and future-proofing water supplies for irrigation in this region." CWSS said the Yarra Valley has had one of the driest summers with water levels in many of the dams in the area significantly below previous levels, and that a number of growers are willing to back the project by investing 50 per cent of the total cost of the $20 million project. Once constructed, CWSS state that the Coldstream Recycled Water Pipeline would be run either as a community owned and operated scheme, governed by a Community Water Supply and Access Agreement (CWSAS), or in conjunction with an authority allowing the supply and access of water to participating landowners.

IN BRIEF Bottle ban for sanctuary
‘Out of control’ By Casey Neill Yarra Ranges and Cardinia fire crews responded to several out of control burn-offs just hours after the CFA Fire Danger Period ended. The period restricting the community’s use of fire to help prevent bushfires started on 19 November and ended on Wednesday 1 May. Emerald Fire Brigade responded to an out of control burn-off about 10am on 1 May. “It was just an unattended burn-off that crept away through the dry grass on the nature strip,” the CFA crew’s captain, Paul Yandle, said. He told the Mail that people had wasted no time in lighting up their garden waste. “I think everybody’s been out there raring
to go,” he said. “Everyone’s lawns have greened up a little bit because of the little rain that we’ve had. “Until we get a really wet week the actual grass and the scrub is still very dry.” Capt Yandle’s top tip for burning off was to keep it small. “Everyone’s keen to clear up their block,” he said. “They need to do it carefully. “Make sure you’ve got a hose there to be able to put it out. “Make sure you’ve got three metres clearance all around and above.” And keep watch. “Don’t leave it unattended. That’s when we
get called out,” Capt Yandle said. “Be vigilant with it. “It does become a fair drain on the brigade, getting called out unnecessarily.” He also urged residents to register their burn-off on 1800 668 511. That way if someone reports smoke, the emergency call-taker can check whether it’s emanating from a recorded burn-off before dispatching firefighters. “It saves the brigade attending,” Capt Yandle said. “If the caller is worried that it’s out of control or unattended, we will still respond.” Burning-off guidelines are available on the CFA website, and local council bylaws apply.
Art gallery to open in Healesville By Jed Lanyon YAVA Gallery and Arts Hub is opening in main street Healesville on Thursday 9 May along with their first exhibition titled, Members Only. YAVA is the new home of Yarra Valley Arts (YVA) and for the first four months, it will showcase YVA members in a series monthly exhibition called Members Only. Artists on show include, David Bennett, Jenny Reddin, and Ali Griffin, Brenda Meynell, Kerryl Shirley, Lee Herath and Savaad Felich. For the last 30 years YVA has operated out of lounge rooms and kitchens but despite that, they have been able to pull together such events as Yarra Valley Open Studios 2017-2019, Yering Sculpture Exhibition, the Summer School and more. YVA president Reggie Clark is looking forward to opening of the YAVA Gallery and Arts Hub in Healesville. "Yarra Valley Arts is thrilled to finally have a home base in the midst of our community. "We are planning a vibrant and active space where locals and visitors can become involved, get creative and connect with the arts." The success of YVA's activities over many years and its vision for the future has attracted the interest of the Trustees of the Margaret Lawrence Bequest. As a result they have received sufficient funds to pay the rent on the space for two years and to employ a gallery director, Andrew Chew. Andrew has experience running world class galleries at Federation Square and Queen Victoria Centre, Melbourne and brings
Single-use plastic bottles are banned from Healesville Sanctuary. From 1 May, single-use plastic bottled water and soft drinks, along with straws and plastic bags, are no longer being used or sold at the sanctuary, Melbourne Zoo and Werribee Open Range Zoo. The ban is an effort to move towards zero public waste going to landfill. Plastic pollution is an urgent environmental problem that is having a significant impact on marine wildlife. Each year Zoos Victoria's Marine Response Unit deals with an increasing number of callouts to marine wildlife in distress. Zoos Victoria is Victoria's leading zoobased conservation organisation. This move is part of a broader effort to influence visitors and other organisations to make positive changes towards a greener, more wildlife-friendly future. From June this year, the Healesville Sanctuary and the other two zoos will have a new three-bin waste system available to the public - organics, comingled and soft-plastics, such as single-use food wrappers - so no public waste goes to landfill. Soft plastics will be recycled in Victoria through a circular economy arrangement where Zoos Victoria will buy back products made from the plastics it recycles.
Healesville hoon Police impounded a man's car after allegedly catching him speeding in Healesville on Saturday 27 April. The Gilderoy man was travelling in his white Holden Commodore sedan on Maroondah Highway about 11.40am when police alleged he was travelling at 120km/h in a 60km/h zone. They impounded the 20-year-old's vehicle for 30 days at a cost of $1280. He is expected to be charged on summons with exceeding the speed limit, failing to display P-plates and other traffic-related offences.
Healesville Jewellers Thieves allegedly stole a wooden puzzle box from Healesville Jewellers on Saturday 27 April, between 11am and 1pm. Police told the Mail that a man and a woman entered the store and allegedly left without paying for the item. The individuals have been identified and are assisting police with their inquiries. Investigations are ongoing.

Australia is continuing to grow its income from exporting wine. The total value increased by five per cent to $2.78 billion in the 12 months to March this year. The average value per litre climbed to $3.41, the highest level since 2009. Wine Australia CEO Andreas Clark said that the continued growth in the value of exports was an extremely positive trend for the sector. He said that the volume of exports had declined by three per cent to 814 million litres, but the increasing value overall and on average was overwhelmingly positive. "What we are seeing is a drop in volumes in the lower value categories," Mr Clark said.

The railway revolution Today we can catch a clean, quiet and efficient electric train to Melbourne. It saves us from the drudgery of driving in traffic and the hassle of finding somewhere to park when we get to our destination. But what did the coming of the railway mean to the people of the Yarra Valley? The railway reached Lilydale in 1882, but for the people of the Yarra Valley this still meant a trip of some hours over rough and unsealed roads by horse and cart just to get to the railway station. Farmers, fruit growers and timber men were faced with impractical costs and efforts to get their produce to the railhead. After much local agitation, the railway to Healesville was completed in 1889. However the plans for a line to Warburton were postponed due to the economic depression of the 1890s. To ease costs, plans were put forward to construct the line in narrow gauge as was the Belgrave to Gembrook (Puffing Billy) line. However as the economic situation improved, this plan was pushed aside as being

Upper Yarra Valley Historical Society unnecessary due to the open nature of the valley. The line was finally built in 1901. To the residents and businesses of the Yarra Valley, the railway was a godsend. Now people could travel to Lilydale and beyond in comfort and with vast savings in time. The fruit growers from Wandin and Seville could get their produce into Melbourne before they spoiled and the timber men had a viable means of getting their timber to market. This led to an explosion of the timber industry, with mills and tramways running from
the forest down to the various railheads. These tramways varied from simple horsedrawn affairs running on wooden rails to more elaborate steel-railed tramways like the Powelltown tramway. But there were other benefits as well. It was easier for farmers to order in their equipment and fertilisers. Tourists from Melbourne discovered the delights of the Yarra Valley which led to a blossoming of the guesthouse industry and later, with the building of the Sanitarium factory in Warburton, wheat was railed in and van loads of Weet-Bix and other products where railed out. The line was successful until the mid-50s when road transport began to seriously compete with the railway. We lost most of the timber tramways in the 1939 fires and these were generally not rebuilt. Despite the calls of ‘use it or lose it’ the Warburton line closed in 1965. The Healesville line lingered on until 1980 before it, too, was closed. Today the Healesville line is being rebuilt as
a tourist railway by the Yarra Valley Railway. The Warburton line is now a well-used rail trail. The old tramlines can in some cases still be walked such as the Walk into History, from Powelltown up to Starlings Gap and down to Big Pats Creek, and the Richardsons Zig Zag, also at Big Pats Creek.

Headspace centre pledge for Lilydale
By Casey Neill
By Jed Lanyon Labor candidate for Casey Bill Brindle has pledged $3.5 million towards opening a headspace centre in Lilydale. "Labor is proud to announce we will match the funding allocated to mental health in the budget and invest an additional $35 million into headspace," Mr Brindle said. Mr Brindle made the announcement alongside Shadow Minister for Ageing and Mental Health Julie Collins at Lilydale Lakeside Campus on Wednesday 1 May. Mr Brindle said that early intervention services were desperately needed in the area. "When a young person is experiencing mental ill health and they are attempting to seek assistance, there should be help for them," he said. "Mental health is such an important issue in our community, especially to young people. "It is an issue that is close to my own heart, as close family members have experienced mental ill health," Mr Brindle said. "Having access to mental health services helps young people create a good foundation in their life and assists them in obtaining an education or vocational training." This announcement would further boost recent funding for a headspace service in Lilydale by Liberal Member for Casey Tony Smith. In March, Mr Smith announced funding to establish an integrated Youth Health Hub, which will include a headspace service through the Eastern Melbourne Primary Health Network. "A youth hub based in Lilydale, with a focus

"A headspace service will be based at the hub, also funded by the federal government. "This comprehensive approach means the

A low-flying plane had Yarra Valley residents ducking for cover and turning to Facebook for answers on Thursday 2 May. The first queries the Mail spotted emanated from Woori Yallock about 2.45pm, and more from Badger Creek, Yarra Junction, Healesville, Launching Place and Wesburn followed shortly after. One Badger Creek local said the plane was so low she thought it was going to hit the trees, and others thought the aircraft must have been about to crash land. The CFA checked on the reports, but told the Mail there were "no signs of distress". As some Facebook users guessed, the plane in question was a C-130J Hercules transport aircraft from the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Base Richmond in Sydney's North West. Following a query from the Mail just minutes after the public reports, the RAAF on Friday 3 May confirmed it had conducted lowlevel flying in the vicinity of Yarra Valley. "The crew was conducting a training sortie to Tasmania and Victoria," a response said. "Low level flying is conducted in accordance with civilian airspace requirements and Defence guidelines, and crews make every effort to remain away from built up areas. "Defence appreciates the support of the local community when it conducts training activities." Information on upcoming aircraft operations can be found at www.airforce.gov.au/ operations/flying-operations.

Health cuts or growth?
Picture’s perfect By Derek Schlennstedt Photography is a wonderful hobby, but for some, a hobby just isn't enough. Some of us get so infected with the craft that we instantly know we want to one day spend all our time on it. So what skills should a hobbyist photographer focus on? That's where Healesville photographer Jesse Graham can help. Mail readers will be familiar with Jesse Graham's work as a former photojournalist with the Mail, and now he is sharing his knowledge of photography. In three, four-hour workshops over May and June, participants will learn how to make the most of their camera's manual settings. Jesse said that over the course of the workshops, participants will learn how to use depth-of-field; lighting and simple posing tips to take simple yet eye-catching photographs. "I really wanted to do this because when I was learning to take photos my learning experience was mainly playing around with dials," Jesse said. "As much as that was fun it was a longer process than it could have been and I really love the idea that if someone was in the same position as I was seven years ago, they could come along and skip that year of playing around with the aperture dials." The workshops are ideal for beginners and no previous experience is needed. Each workshop is different and over the course of three Saturday's participants will learn photography 101, how to take interesting and engaging portraits, shooting with film, and how to set up an online portfolio. "I liked the idea of separating the workshops into three days," Jesse said "The first one is on how you use your camera and what the terms mean, and then we take a deeper dive into the fundamental ele-

More than $23 million in cuts to Eastern Health funding "will hit locals hard", according to the State Government. But the Federal Government says funding for the outer east provider is actually increasing. Eastern Victoria Region MP Harriet Shing said there'd been a $23,531,780 cut in federal funding to Eastern Health, which includes Healesville Hospital and the Angliss Hospital. She said that was the equivalent of 45,755 dialysis sessions, 21,190 chemotherapy treatments or 1424 hip replacements. "Canberra's cuts have hit Eastern Health hard - and local patients, nurses and doctors deserve better," she said. Ms Shing made the comments in support of a State Government campaign for a fair share of federal funding for Victoria, no matter who wins the 18 May election. But Health Minister Greg Hunt said that funding for public hospitals in the Eastern Health Network had increased from $172.5 million under Labor in 2013 to $337.5 million in 2018 - growing by 95.7 per cent. He said that would increase to $492.1 million by the end of the new national hospitals agreement in 2024-'25. "This extra funding is providing more nurses, doctors, elective surgeries and supporting our emergency departments," Mr Hunt said. Eastern Health chief executive Adjunct Professor David Plunkett said ensuring local residents had access to high quality care was of great importance. "We welcome any commitment which will enhance the services we provide our community," he said.
The Rotary Club of Healesville wish to thank all who participated in and contributed to our fourth annual Dogs Day Out event.

FEDERAL ELECTION 2019
Your Casey candidates The Mail asked the Casey candidates three questions ahead of the Federal Election on Saturday 18 May. Here are the responses we received, in ballot paper order.
Peter Charleton, Independent What are your top three priorities for the area? 1. To provide our community with a representative who will freely and openly express the views, needs and concerns of those who raise such matters with me. 2. To provide our community with a representative who isn't bound/pressured to follow a particular party line. 3. To provide our community with a representative who will set an example by cutting personal expenses, entitlement claims and rally
CAN’T MAKE IT ON ELECTION DAY?
against MP pay rises. What's your personal connection to the electorate? I spent many school holidays in Healesville with my grandparents, helping pa with his vegie garden and racehorses. Some may remember my grandad, who was affectionately known as 'Buster'. My family moved to Dixons Creek five and a bit years ago. My daughters attend local public schools. My partner gets involved in school productions, painting props and backdrops. In January 2016 l began a free jumping castle service which has seen some 320 or so bookings, helping many local families, clubs and organisations. Why do you want to be an MP? l don't look like an MP, l don't speak like an MP, I don't even like the title MP, but l am willing to become YOUR MP and take a few hits for the team. I'm your typical everyday Aussie bloke who has had a gutful of career politicians playing games and abusing taxpayer dollars. Current day politicians have a knack for finding that big cheque book when an election is called. I want to educate other MPs that worthy projects must be approved on merit and funded irrespective of where we are in the election cycle.
Antony Calabro, Rise Up Australia Party What are your top three priorities for the area? 1. Serve the electorate not dictate to it. I am not a career politician, I am business-minded. 2. Implement policies that strengthen the family unit, which is the backbone of a strong society. 3. Decrease red-tape to help small business/ primary producers and thus employment. What's your personal connection to the electorate? I currently live in Monbulk, part of Casey, so have a vested interest like the electorate does. Why do you want to be an MP? I am not a politician and never wanted to get into politics but I see politicians not following through on their promises or compromising or doing what's popular instead of what right based on facts not opinion. I have my own business and have learnt you can't run a business that way let alone a country or any electorate.
If you know you can’t vote on Saturday 18 May, you can vote early.
Ross McPhee, Labour DLP Did not respond by deadline.
It’s amazing how powerful a piece of paper can be on election day. If you are an Australian citizen aged 18 years or over, you are required by law to vote. So, if you’re unable to make it to a polling place on election day, you can vote early at an early voting centre or apply for a postal vote. If you are travelling or will be outside the electorate where you are enrolled, you can vote early. There are other reasons you can vote early – visit www.aec.gov.au/early to find out more.
Your vote will help shape Australia.

Travis Barker, Animal Justice Party mailcommunity.com.au
FEDERAL ELECTION 2019 What are your top three priorities for the area? 1. Ban live export. Each year, millions of animals suffer on lengthy sea journeys. 2. Combat the climate emergency. Urgent action must be taken to address global climate destabilisation. We will legislate to protect forests and marine habitats from further destruction and invest in clean energy. 3. Protect wildlife habitats. Land clearing is an animal welfare disaster, displacing and killing huge numbers of wildlife. We will introduce laws to protect wildlife habitats. What's your personal connection to the electorate? I have lived in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges for almost a decade and operate a small local business providing tuition for children. Community involvement has always been important to me and has led me to being appointed as the treasurer at a local kindergarten. Alongside my wife and family, we gave our time to support the community during the 2019 Victorian bushfires by transporting food and medical supplies to shelters. Why do you want to be an MP? My interest in the Australian Political system grew in my teenage years as I participated in programs such as Youth Parliament. Since then I have always been an active member of the community and a voice for the animals and environment. Animal and environmental protection has not been a priority in Australian law. This has spurred me to take action and run for election in Casey. Wendy Starkey, United Australia Party Did not respond by deadline. Ryan Leslie Clark, Derryn Hinch's Justice Party Did not respond by deadline.
Being the Federal Member for Casey is an honour and a privilege. I am passionate about helping people and working with our community to get results. If I am re-elected I will work hard and deliver my comprehensive local plan to build a stronger and safer community and stronger local economy.
Tony Smith, Liberal What are your top three priorities for the area? 1. Continuing to build a stronger economy so we can guarantee the essential services that Australians rely on. Our stronger economy is delivering more jobs and increasing funding for schools, hospitals and roads. 2. Major road upgrades to reduce traffic congestion and improve safety. These include additional lanes and traffic lights on Maroondah Hwy in Coldstream, fixing the bottleneck at the Dorset Road, additional lanes on Canterbury Road and on Wellington Road, and $300 million to seal dirt roads in the Dandenongs. 3. I am committed to easing the pressure on families through reduced taxes and rewarding small business for having a go. What's your personal connection to the electorate? I have lived here with my family in our local community for just over 16 years. Throughout this time I have worked closely with individuals, families, community groups and sports clubs who are driven to make our community stronger and safer. It is their values and commitment to our region that continues to motivate me every day to work to make Casey the best it can be. Why do you want to be an MP? To make a difference and help our community move ahead.
Bill Brindle, Australian Labor Party What are your top three priorities for the area? From speaking to locals, the biggest issues are: 1. Education. Better school funding and the biggest-ever investment in early childhood education. 2. Health. Better funding for hospitals and Medicare. 3. Jobs. Restoring weekend penalty rates and supporting the tradie pay guarantee. What's your personal connection to the electorate? I have lived in the Dandenong Ranges for many years and raised two daughters in the area with my partner. I have also run my own small business in the area. Why do you want to be an MP? I consider the seat of Casey my home and, unfortunately, there is so much that has been sorely neglected over the last few years. Achieving practical improvements in services
and infrastructure is really important to myself and other locals and this is what I am committed to if I am honoured enough to be elected as your local representative. Jenny Game-Lopata, The Greens Did not respond by deadline.
Jayden O'Connor, The Great Australian Party What are your top three priorities for the area? 1. Local infrastructure maintenance and upgrades without cost to the locals via consolidated revenue. 2. Reverting local governments to a municipal department of the state compliant to the Commonwealth constitution, not a third tier of government. 3. More income through the front door of the family home, local businesses and the community as a whole. What's your personal connection to the electorate? I live near local producers and see the affects first-hand of unfair regulation and legislation. Why do you want to be an MP? I have never wanted to be an MP but I don't see the changes needed happening. I see it is getting worse and it needs to stop so all people can have trust in parliament once again and I and the Great Australian Party will make that happen. All candidates have already sworn the correct oath to do so and serve the people first and foremost.

Rob Thomas in a Yarra Valley show By Jed Lanyon Multi award-winning singer-songwriter Rob Thomas will return to Australia for a massive national tour later this year, including Rochford Wines on Saturday 9 November. Currently in Australia to promote his brand new album Chip Tooth Smile, the successful solo artist and front man for Matchbox Twenty makes a welcome return to Australia for three performances in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. Fans can expect a dynamic show of huge hits and favourites plucked from Thomas' 30 plus year career, as well as a tasting of new tracks lifted from Chip Tooth Smile. Tickets for the 'A Day On The Green' concerts will go on sale on Wednesday May 8 at 12pm from Ticketmaster. Among his numerous hits are solo classics like Lonely No More, This Is How A Heart Breaks, Her Diamonds, Streetcorner Symphony, Little Wonders and Matchbox Twenty favourites Push, 3AM, If You're Gone, Unwell, How Far We've Come and Bent, as well as Smooth, his worldwide smash hit Santana collaboration. Smooth celebrates its 20th anniversary this year and last year was ranked as the second most successful song of all time on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In 2017, the Grammy award-winning hit was named by APRA as the second-most played song on Australian radio in the last 25 years. Rob Thomas is one of the most distinctive artists of any era - a gifted vocalist, spell-binding performer and an acclaimed songwriter known worldwide as the lead singer and primary composer with Matchbox Twenty, as well as for his multi-platinum solo work and charttopping collaborations. As a songwriter and collaborator, Thomas has racked up global sales of more than 80 mil-

Living Tiwi By Jed Lanyon Natural ochres on canvas by ten Tiwi artists from Jilamara Arts and Craft Association are coming to Hearth Galleries in May. Designs from Pwoja (body painting) and Pukumani burial poles give a powerful insight into Tiwi mythology, ceremony and mortality. The artwork can be viewed from 8 May to 9 June. The artwork is by Janice Murray, Raelene Kerinauia, Timothy Cook, Linus Warlapinni, Ian Cook Mungatopi, Dymphna Kerinauia, Chris Tipiloura, Jocelyn Black, Kenny Brown and Pedro Wonaeamirri. "The ochres are being left by our ancestors, so still following their footsteps. Ochres were used here by our elders and today we are still using it. We have not forgotten our colour," said Pedro Wonaeamirri.

enous Languages and Arts Grant that ECOSS received this year. Yarra Valley ECOSS said they are grateful for the opportunity to work with local Wurundjeri Elder Aunty Kim Wandin, and Yarra Valley Signs Brad Charman, to create the signage that will be revealed at this event.

Unicorn Store, star Brie Larson's first feature film as director, is a poignant, funny drama about growing up too late. After failing art school, the childlike Kit (Larson) is contacted by a mysterious salesman (Samuel L Jackson), who promises her a real unicorn if she can improve her life. Larson anchors the film with a performance of perky, naive desperation and directs a touching, tightly-written narrative about maturity. A subtly-surreal film with dry jabs at office bureaucracy and smothering parents, Unicorn Store cleverly frames a whimsical goal as the catalyst for real-world personal growth. Kit appears stuck in a glittery past without responsibility or forward momentum.
But as the salesman assigns her tasks to qualify for unicorn ownership, Kit grows in tangible ways. In preparing her world for the unicorn, Kit finds friendship and tries to mend her tense relationship with her parents in a slow, difficult, but gratifying process of self-clarity and reaching out. Larson has endearing chemistry with Mamoudou Athie as Virgil, who Kit befriends after enlisting him to build her a stable, and Kit eventually finds a synthesis of her old and new selves, as she applies her vibrant style to an important advertising proposal at her new job. Unicorn Store is a sensitive, engaging film with a fanciful sheen over very down-to-earth themes and is available for streaming on Netflix. - Seth Lukas Hynes

THE LOWDOWN Q&A
with cartoonist Michael Leunig
What is something people don't know about you? I'm not from an art background but a labouring background. I've spent a lot of my time in the CFA, planting trees and general labouring. I come from a long line of people who are miners and meatworkers so I don't fit in in some sense to the more intellectual circles - I'm comfortable there, but my heart has been in more practical and physical things for a lot of my life. What has been your most memorable moment? It's a pain memory actually; I stepped into a pit of fire that was concealed when I was 9-years-old, and I was caught in it momentarily. I dropped into this sort of hole and the pain was unbelievable - a sudden searing pain. I got very serious burns from it and I wasn't able to walk for some time. The memory of that pain is still with me today. Is there a medium that you've been exploring or would like to explore in the future? I'm not sure. Everything I do, you want to keep exploring it, it's this continuous desire to liberate and be free with what you're doing and inventive and that's not so much a new medium. I've done film a little bit, but I still prefer the things I can do with my hands. I'm rather fond of traditional mediums. When did you design your iconic character caricature? I think it was at school, I would have been about 16-year-old and I used to draw this profile of a person - sort of, stupid thing. It was just a head side-on and it was meant to be just an idiotic, dumb person. I found you could make it quite expressive just by the shape of the eye and mouth, and its pure dumb innocence was what its strength was, because it was nondescript, it could be anybody. What do you hope to achieve with your cartoons?
I like to think, there's something traditional in what the good cartoonist does and that is to be the voice of the outsiders, to notice something that no one else thinks is important, but really is important. I would like to think people will look at it, be intrigued or mystified, there's a poetic element in a cartoon in my mind- it's not just a gag. I like to think it would soften people rather than sharpen them and that it opens people up a bit, and that's a big wish. Which object that you've lost do you wish you still had?
My dog, Dina. I had a dog who was my dearest, closest spiritual companion as a 12-year-old. It was the loveliest little kelpie and it just went everywhere with me and one day me and my father went down to the Mornington Peninsula and the dog was always waiting for me. We came back and it was gone. To this day I will see a black and tan kelpie and say, 'that's like Dina'. I really was grief stricken for a long time. How do you balance making a pointed or perhaps even controversial statement without crossing the line of being offensive?
I think we are in a bad way at the moment and there's a lot of intolerance and we've forgotten the idea that it's good to be challenged and good to be able to bear with things that you might not agree with. I think the cartoonist's job was to always push that boundary a bit, and I have been in trouble a lot of times in my life over these things. I've had a life time of trying to keep the line not getting to tight, and pushing the line back a bit in the belief that we'd do well to bear with each other and talk it through rather than silence each other too much.

NEWS
Casey remembers A new book is capturing the Casey commemorations for 100 Years of Anzac - and it's not being sold. The Mount Evelyn RSL received a grant so that a copy could be donated to each school, historical society, library and RSL in the electorate, so that for generations to come people can learn how the community commemorated such an important event in the nation's history. Historian and Mount Evelyn RSL secretary Anthony McAleer said that during the centenary of World War I, the federal electorate named after WWI veteran Lord Richard Casey, was one of the most proactive electorates in the country. "It began with the first centenary event in Australia, the memorials at the Lillydale Lake to honour the militia camp of February 1914 run by John Monash," he said. Over the next five years, organisations in the electorate held memorial services, concerts, unveilings, launches and talks. They published books and websites, created memorials, signs, avenues of honour and commemorative quilts and developed exhibitions as well as painted murals. "Most notable were the 60 or so commemorative services organised by the Mount Evelyn and Lilydale RSLs that paid tribute to the local fatal casualties listed on six war memorials in the area, on the anniversary of each of the days they died on active service," Mr McAleer said. The Mount Evelyn RSL collected all the speeches made at the hundreds of events between 2014 and 2019 and published them all in a volume, Casey Commemorates - How the Electorate of Casey Commemorated World War One. The book also includes historical images and photos of the events. Mr McAleer and Casey MP Tony Smith wrote most of these speeches. The book carries a foreword by Australian War Memorial Brendan Nelson.

Celtic Illusion played at Healesville's The Memo on Friday 3 May.

"Celtic Illusion showcases a stellar cast of champion and internationally acclaimed dancers, including performers from Riverdance and Lord of the Dance. "Celtic Illusion has enjoyed great success, regularly performing to sell-out audiences since the show premiered in 2011," he said. "Audiences will be impressed by some of the fastest tap dancing in the world, not to mention an incredible soundtrack composed by a stellar team including Angela Little who co-composed Baz Luhrman's film Australia, as well as Steve Skinner who has arranged and produced for artists such as Celine Dion, Stevie Wonder and the Broadway musical Rent," Mr Street said.

$500 on offer for art competition By Jed Lanyon Eastern Health is inviting Yarra Valley students and adults to take part in their Respectful Relationships Art Competition. There is up to $500 to be won thanks to the Healesville Rotary Club that will go to the artwork that represents what is perceived to be a healthy and respectful relationship. Eastern Health's Health Promotion team has been working across the Yarra Valley to increase the capacity for all schools to encourage and promote respectful relationships. In response, the Respectful Relationships Visual Marketing steering committee was mailcommunity.com.au
formed in November 2018 and has been working on a project that aims to inspire willing community members to produce art that can be used across schools and early learning centres. The Respectful Relationships Art Competition will roll out in term two and will be open to both students and adults to participate. Selected pieces will be re-produced into posters and distributed throughout schools and early learning centres to spark conversation around healthy and respectful relationships.

Or Eastern Health's Yarra Junction Community Health at 2475 Warburton Hwy, Yarra Junction 3797.
Dam safety warning A fatality and a serious injury have prompted warnings about dam safety. Victoria has about 450,000 dams, the State Government said, many of which are on farms and private properties and have been significantly impacted by a lack of rainfall this year. The soil around dry dams can be prone to collapse, particularly when digging or using machinery. A man aged in his twenties died last month when he became buried at the base of a dry dam at a property in East Gippsland. It's believed he was excavating a trench at the base of the dam when it collapsed on him. A farmer in his seventies was injured after his tractor rolled while he was working on a dam at Mt Moriac on Saturday 27 April. "Safety around dams is so important, even surfaces that look hard can be soft underneath and may give way under the weight of machinery, causing it to tip or roll," Workplace Safety Minister Jill Hennessy said. WorkSafe health and safety executive director Julie Nielsen said farmers and contractors often used dry periods to carry out maintenance and repairs on dams. She said they still needed to consider safety before they started work. "Even much-needed rain won't reduce the risk," Ms Nielsen said. "The fact that farmers and contractors often work alone in areas that have poor mobile phone coverage compounds this risk." To reduce the risks, farmers and contractors should identify unstable ground before starting work; only use equipment they are competent with and only use it within its operating range; avoid driving machinery over slopes and embankments; ensure a hard stand area for excavators is stable and not undermined by vermin; seek assistance when recovering bogged equipment and/or animals; ensure they have access to a means of communication; and avoid working alone.
School zone with clarity A new interactive website is helping parents to find out what school zone they live in. The State Government created a simple and clear website so, for the first time, Victorian parents can enter their home address online and see their local school zone. A number of anomalies in school zoning have also been addressed. Previously some homes were excluded from a school zone and, in some cases, school boundaries overlapped. The Find My School website also includes zones for the new schools opening in 2020. The website allows parents to search for their closest school as well as find other nearby government schools. "For decades parents haven't had easy access to enrolment zones, causing unnecessary stress for thousands of families," Education Minister James Merlino said. "Since the start of last year alone we've received nearly 6000 calls, letters and emails from families wanting to know their local school zones." Now parents can find their local schools by typing in a residential address or suburb, searching by school name or searching by categories such as primary, secondary, or specialist school. The site is designed to provide parents with clarity and consistency on what their government school options are. Schools have always had the choice to accommodate children living outside a school's zone if there was enough space and the State Government said this would not change. The State Government also stressed that no student enrolled in a school would be required to change schools. Visit findmyschool.vic.gov.au. Tuesday, 7 May, 2019

Eagles stun Bulldogs By Nick Creely An absolute masterclass in the wet and windy conditions saw Beaconsfield secure their first victory of the AFL Outer East Premier season on Saturday in a drubbing of Wandin at Holm Park. Leigh McQuillen's side - after two narrow losses to begin life in the new competition stunned the Bulldogs in an incredible performance, running out 110-point winners and showcasing why they are one of the great attacking threats at their very best, 20.13 (133) to 3.5 (23). In their first trip down to the south-east to take on one of their new rivals, the Bulldogs were blown away early, with the home side absolutely clinical with their ball movement, scoring five unanswered majors to take a fivegoal lead into the first break. With Scott Meyer up and running and dominating proceedings - as well as the likes of the impressive Jamie Plumridge looking a menace in attack - the Bulldogs couldn't hit the scoreboard until the second term when young gun Patrick Bruzzese found a major, with the home side extending their lead to 59-points at halftime. From there, things didn't get easier for the Bulldogs, with the home side completely flattening the visitors in a scintillating third term, before slamming on a further four in the final term to extend the margin to beyond three figures. Making the win all the more impressive was the bursts of rain sweeping across the ground throughout the day, with the Eagles enjoying 10 individual goal kickers, including Plumridge who slotted five and Matthew Johnson with four. Experienced heads Sean Dwyer and Jake Bowd were also instrumental in the win, while Bruzzese was the best on a dirty day for the Dogs.
Monbulk star Kris Fletcher dishes off this handball on Saturday against Officer. 192989 Picture: ROB CAREW In other clashes across the Premier Division, Olinda Ferny Creek secured their first victory in a hard-fought 10-point win against Healesville. The battle of the Bloods eventually saw the lads from Olinda take the much-needed four points, 8.17 (65) to 7.13 (55).
After the visitors took a narrow lead into quarter time, Olinda took control to kick six goals to four in the final three-quarters, but probably should have won by more after having 25 scoring shots. In other matches across the round, Narre Warren dominated Upwey Tecoma to run out

20.22 (142) to 2.4 (16) winners, with big man Aaron Wilson slotting five, while Woori Yallock held off a late-surging Cranbourne to win by just seven-points, 14.9 (93) to 13.8 (86), with the Tigers defeating the Eagles for the first time. In AFL Outer East Division 2 action, Monbulk were simply brilliant in keeping their undefeated start to the season alive, defeating Officer down at Starling Road by 43-points, 10.17 (77) to 5.4 (34). The Hawks and Kangaroos were fairly even in a tightly-fought out first half, but the pressure and intensity of the visitors proved too far for Doug Koop's side, kicking six-goals to just two after half time to inflict the Kangas with a third straight loss. Kris Fletcher was a colossal all day for the Hawks to be a clear best afield. In other matches, Pakenham remains atop the ladder after a comfortable win against Doveton, 10.8 (68) to 4.5 (29), Mt Evelyn's impressive start to the season continued with a win against Emerald, 15.9 (99) to 11.6 (72), while Warburton Millgrove came from behind to register a thrilling win against Belgrave, 13.14 (92) to 12.14 (86). In Division 2, Gembrook Cockatoo finally broke through for a much-needed victory against Alexandra, 17.18 (120) to 6.7 (43). The Brookers were dominant from the outset, with Michael Firrito best on ground, while big man Hamish McIntosh was also instrumental. Powelltown proved too good to seal a 15.12 (102) to 12.7 (79) victory against Thornton Eildon, while Yarra Junction belted Yea by 25-goals, 25.17 (167) to 1.3 (9). In the sixth Yarra Valley Pride Cup on Sunday, Yarra Glen fought off a stern challenge from Seville to emerge with a victory, 13.8 (86) to 11.9 (75).

Fox won the day
Yarra Glen pride By Jed Lanyon Yarra Glen won its sixth consecutive Pride Cup against Seville on Sunday 5 May. Yarra Glen 13.8.86 defeated Seville 11.9.75 and now sits atop the ladder in the Division 2 Reserves of the AFL Outer East. Yarra Glen uses the Pride Cup event to play an opponent that poses a significant challenge to them and this year was no exception. Seville defeated Yarra Glen in last year’s qualifying final and both teams went into the game undefeated for the season. Yarra Glen remains undefeated in Pride Cup games in what has become the biggest event of the year for the club. Yarra Glen’s Division 2 A-grade netball team lost to Seville 27-68 in their matchup. The Pride Cup promotes LGBTIQ-plus inclusion and acceptance in community sporting clubs, to make sure that no player, official or fan has to choose between being themselves or the game that they love. The initiative started when Jason Ball publicly came out as gay in 2012, his teammates from the Yarra Glen Football Netball Club
wanted to show him they had his back. Ball attended the event and shared his love for his club in a post on social media. “This club means so much to me. It was the club where I kicked my first footy. It was the club where I won two premierships. And it was the club that embraced me when I came out all those years ago,” the post read. “My teammates at Yarra Glen Football Club are the real heroes of my coming out story. Six years ago they not only stood by my side, they created the Pride Cup and inspired a national movement that tells every player, official and supporter that they don’t have to choose between being themselves and the game they love. “When I look at these rainbow jumpers I see them through the eyes of a 13-year-old kid struggling to come to terms with who they are. It’s a message of hope. If it can be ok to be gay in a country footy club, then there’s hope that it can be ok anywhere,” Ball said.

The opening round of XCR19, Athletics Victoria's cross country and road interclub series, was held at a damp, slippery Jells Park on Saturday 4 May. More than 1500 athletes from clubs throughout Victoria welcomed the XCR19 season with some outstanding performances and races. Yarra Ranges Athletics had 12 teams complete the deceptively tough course. Highlights were wins by the women's under-16, Indigo Linde, Mia Strudley and Maddie Laven, and the men's under-20 (Harry Norman, Max Saville-Bentley and James Laven). It was also great to welcome athletes competing for the club for the first time including Liam Gietzmann, Calvin Amos, Paul Todd, Noah Wright, Lachlan Nicholls, Tom Dellow. A special welcome went to little athletics club members Ky Harris, Bailey Van Bert and Ciara Willey who got a taste of Athletics Victoria action.

Steuart Hawke was the daily runner-up with a nett 65. With this scoring, balls only got down to 69. Nearest the pins went to Barry Maltman on the sixth, 'Happy' Gilmore on the ninth and to Dave Viney on the 15th. Under rainy skies, only a small field battled the elements for the club's Saturday 4 May stroke and monthly medal competition. Howard MacDonald claimed the medal and the daily voucher with an impressive nett 65. There was no A or B-grade, but Ken White claimed the runner-up prize with a nett 70. Players who scored 75 or better can claim a ball. There were only three nearest the pin winners - Peter Fox on the fifth, 'Happy' Gilmore on the ninth and Neil Leckenby on the 12th. The Mid-Week Masters pennant season concluded on Friday 3 May. Noel Cross's team performed admirably all season to still be in the running for top-spot up to the last match. Captain Cross and his warriors finished third, and can be proud of their efforts. Ron Hottes' team went on a wild ride to be on top until the very last match was played. Ironically they finished third, such was the evenness of their division. The open pennant team, ably led by Paul Mason, made it to the final of division two where they met a Moonah-Links team at Flinders. This was played on Sunday 5 May and the result was a 4-3 loss. But, those boys can be very proud of their efforts. All of the club's pennant players represented the club with great distinction.

MOTORING
Porsches roll on through By Jed Lanyon You may have noticed several Porsches cruising down the Warburton Highway on Sunday 5 May as members of The Porsche Club of Victoria visited Warburton CFA as part of their Autumn run to Cape Woolamai. Over 40 club members each brought their Porsche along and travelled via Yarra Junction, Neerim South, Drouin, Poowong, Loch, San Remo and finished for lunch at Cape Woolamai at Phillip Island.
The Porsche Car Club of Victoria made a substantial donation to the fire brigade as part of their ongoing support of various CFA's as a thank you for the service provided by firefighters across Victoria. Members of the Porsche Club of Victoria spent the morning inspecting the fire tenders, chatting to brigade members and listening to a talk by Captain Hazel Clothier on the history of the Warburton Fire Brigade that spans over 100 years.
Warburton CFA has old equipment used throughout the brigade's history on permanent display. The Porsche Club of Victoria's deputy director Geoffrey Mould said, "The Warburton Fire Brigade are great ambassadors for the Warburton Area and the Porsche Club of Victoria are keen to come back again to travel around the Warburton area on one of their regular runs around Victoria to sample more of the brigade's hospitality."
