The Victorian Aboriginal Remembrance Service was held on Friday 31 May at the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne. The Victorian Aboriginal Remembrance Service was founded by Aunty Dot Peters, a respected Aboriginal Elder in the Yarra Valley community. The service honoured the thousands of Aboriginal service men and women who have served and continue to serve in the Australian Defence Force. "I think it's good to remember them. The service gives us a chance say thank you to the boys who came back over," Aunty Dot said. "And for those who didn't, their bodies are not here but their spirits are here and it touches my heart." Aunty Dot said she hopes that anyone who attended the service learned a little bit more than what they knew beforehand about Indigenous soldiers who served for Australia. "A lot of people don't know what happened to these Aboriginal people, even some of our own people don't know. It's about telling them what has happened and what is still happening now. "When Aboriginal people tried to join the services, the authorities wouldn't let them because of the colour of their skin. "If it was really dark they wouldn't let them join. But when the Japanese bombed Darwin, they changed their mind," Aunty Dot said. Aunty Dot said she was upset to hear that some returning Aboriginal servicemen were excluded from having a beer at a hotel with other non-Indigenous soldiers they had fought alongside. "I approached the local RSL and asked them to get involved with Reconciliation Week." A didgeridoo was played alongside the ode at Healesville RSL as a way of honouring Aunty Dot's father, who had died as a Prisoner of War on the Thai Burma railway. "The next year it was here, and it was the first time the shrine raised the Aboriginal flag to recognise Aboriginal issues, and then it went Australia wide," she said.

Garden help By Jed Lanyon Healesville Hospital is seeking community support for the establishment of a wellness garden for patients and their families. The new state-of-the-art facility provides outstanding care for the local community following a redevelopment in 2017. An opportunity to implement a wellness garden to support recovery has been identified to further improve the experience for patients, their families and the wider community. Christine Wittkopp, Nurse Unit Manager at Healesville Hospital said the wellness garden would have a range of benefits for her patients. "We know that viewing or being in nature produces positive changes in a patient's blood pressure, heart activity, muscle tension and brain activity," she said. "While we have a fantastic outlook towards Mt St Leonard, the current space overlooking this area provides a perfect backdrop for a healing environment for our community. "Being able to build a beautiful wellness

garden with Mt St Leonard in the background, will bring nature directly to our patients and their families, and create a space that invites further exploration," Ms Wittkopp said. Healesville Hospital said the garden will provide patients with a safe space to breathe the fresh mountain air, spend quality time with their loved ones, have a break from being inside their hospital ward and give them a quiet place for reflection. There have been significant contributions already to the garden, but fundraising needs to continue to complete the project. Eastern Health Foundation is raising money to make the wellness garden a reality, with the fundraising campaign running until July. Donations can be made to the foundation by calling 03 9895 4608 or online at https:// www.easternhealth.org.au and clicking on 'Areas of need'. It is the hospital's hope to complete the major landscaping in time for planting in September.

IN BRIEF

Help for homeless By Casey Neill Yarra Ranges' homeless could be left in the cold this winter because of state planning rules. At the Tuesday 28 May Yarra Ranges Council meeting, councillors agreed to advocate to the State Government for changes to building regulations for winter shelters. Stable One gave 56 men and women in the Yarra Ranges the chance to come in from the cold during the past two winters by partnering with churches to provide temporary accommodation. The organisation was at first advised that its program was considered ancillary to a church's normal activity, but have recently been told they need new occupancy permits for the buildings. Stable One managing director Jenny Willetts told the council meeting that seven churches took it in turns to host those in need, with help from volunteers. An eighth church opened its doors on Friday afternoons for recreation, showers and support. "There's a critical shortage of crisis accommodation," Ms Willetts said. She said transitional housing was also lack-

ing in the region. Ms Willetts said she didn't consider the service accommodation, just shelter and hospitality. "We're filling a critical gap," she said. But the Victorian Building Authority (VBA) advised the council that the churches would need a temporary occupancy permit to take part this year. A building permit would be needed for any alterations the churches needed to meet classifications for accommodation, with more permits required for following years. "Unfortunately none of the current locations in Yarra Ranges have such permits or meet the requirements of the building regulations for this type of accommodation use," a council report said. The council will ask Planning Minister Richard Wynne and the Victorian Building Authority to review the Building Act 1993 to improve regulations for using non-residential buildings for short-term accommodation. It will also ask the Maroondah and Knox councils to consider following suit. Cr Len Cox said a change had to happen. "We have a lot of homeless people in our municipality, unfortunately," he said.

"Stable One has done a wonderful job, giving some protection from the weather and food and company. "Just someone to talk to, often, is what a lot of people need. "This motion will go a little bit of the way to maybe getting some permits through so Stable One can go back to giving a place to stay to the homeless over the winter months." Cr Fiona McAllister said she felt ashamed. "This is red tape gone mad," she said. "What is the point of all of these requirements and provisions? "It's about risk minimisation. What is the risk? "The true risk is us not looking after the people in our community who need it most through a simple solution being provided by people who care." Cr McAllister said the council needed to encourage the removal of red tape. "I really hope this time next year we are not having this type of conversation," she said. Mayor Tony Stephenson said the regulations were there for reasons. "We don't have the discretion to delete state planning regulations," he said. "What we can do is advocate against them."

Sanctuary celebrates 85th birthday By Jed Lanyon Healesville Sanctuary celebrated its 85th birthday on Thursday 30 May by giving free entry to anyone born in 1985 as well as those now in their 85th year. Director Ross Williamson said it had been a tremendous year for the team, who saw everything from births, to wild releases and recordbreaking visitor events. "Over the past 10 years, we've extended our work into the conservation of Australian animals, especially across our threatened species programs," Mr Williamson said. "As a result, we've seen great success this year for the teams, especially within Helmeted Honeyeater, Tassie Devil and Mountain Pygmy Possum breeding programs. These will hopefully lead to more releases into the wild to rebuild those populations." Healesville Sanctuary was previously known as the Sir Colin MacKenzie Sanctuary. An anatomist, Sir MacKenzie originally set up a research station on the site, which became a sanctuary in 1934. The first platypus ever bred in captivity was born at the Sanctuary in 1943. This year, the sanctuary saw a momentous breeding season for the critically endangered Helmeted Honeyeater with 30 chicks born in the sanctuary's 30th year of breeding the birds, with a wild release planned later this year. The team also celebrated the first-ever birth of an endangered Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo, who first peered out of his mother's pouch in September 2018. Kofi is now a fully indepen-

Lucky escape A man was lucky to escape being crushed by a falling gum tree when he was driving on Sunday morning along Maroondah Highway, Fernshaw . Police told the Mail that at 10.40am on 2 June, a large tree fell onto the man’s vehicle on the Maroondah Highway. He then crashed through thick bush and down a steep embankment. The 38-year-old was airlifted to Royal Melbourne Hospital with suspected back injuries. Wandin Fire Brigade along with the Monbulk Fire and Rescue CFA crew and Healesville SES unit performed a rope and vehicle extrication to remove the man from the car, which was about 25 metres down the embankment. The Black Spur was closed for four hours while heavy haulage worked to remove the vehicle. Healesville Police Sergeant Tim Stewart said the driver was lucky to escape without serious injury. “A tree fell down on the side of the road, onto the bonnet of the car and as a result the car has run off the edge, down the embankment 20 metres or so,” he said. “Unfortunately it was just a freak accident.”

Snow warning There’s snow on Mount Donna Buang and snow seekers are on stand-by to grab the toboggans and head up the mountain. Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol is reminding visitors to be prepared if venturing into snow territory. Sergeant Dave McIlfatric said people should check the weather forecast on the Parks Victoria website for road closures and recommended carrying wheel chains for the drive up to the summit. “We have seen some decent snowfalls in the upper hills of the Yarra Ranges and are expected to see some more this week,” he said. “We would advise that when heading to any snowfield to make sure you are properly equipped - that means carrying snow chains and, of course, driving to the conditions. “Being prepared will help make sure that you, your family and friends all have a safe and enjoyable day.” For more information about Mount Donna Buang call Parks Victoria on 13 19 63 or for road closure information visit www.parks.vic. gov.au/MountDonnaBuang.

Safely return to running Having a baby is a time of incredible joy and exhilaration and a time to adjust to motherhood, sleep deprivation and the amazing changes a woman’s body has undertaken in growing, carrying and birthing a little one. New mums are usually keen to return to exercise and all the activities they loved doing before baby but are often unsure how to safely begin. Runners are often a different story. They are usually itching to get back on the trails for both the exhilaration of the run and the mental break from newborn life. However, they may not be aware of the impact of running on their recovering bodies both now and in the future. Fortunately, to help support postnatal women to return to running safely, there are new guidelines based on the best available current evidence. The guidelines have been produced by

three passionate UK-based physiotherapists who have sought extensive collaboration from leading international health professionals. They recommend that there is no one size fits all approach and that most women should wait until at least 12 weeks postnatal before a graduated return to the pavement. Some women will cringe at waiting this

long but consideration must be given to the high impact loads of running and the physical, psychological and hormonal factors of postnatal recovery. Running produces a sudden rise in intraabdominal pressure and acknowledged increased ground reaction forces of around 1.52.5 times bodyweight. Postnatal women have weakened lower limb muscles following pregnancy and childbirth and poor ability to absorb such dramatic elevations in pressure. Abdominal and pelvic floor muscles are also recovering post-birth and if such forces are transferred to these vulnerable muscles, they will struggle to maintain continence and organ support. No new mum wants to encounter bladder or bowel leakage or an onset of prolapse symptoms. The stakes are high for a mum wanting to

return to running. Throw in sleep deprivation as the new norm which causes a reduction in muscle protein synthesis, and breastfeeding and its increased energy requirements, and no wonder the guidelines recommend every mother should access a pelvic health and physical assessment with a specialist physiotherapist. Until Medicare funds such a postnatal screening assessment for every new mum this may not always be achievable. Best practice should at the very least include starting an appropriate exercise program devised in conjunction with a health professional early, which includes specific pelvic floor and abdominal muscle training and education to ready the running mum for her appropriate time to return to running. - Jen Vardy is a women’s and pelvic health physiotherapist with Dandenong Ranges Physio, Mount Evelyn and Olinda.

Fire service reform By Casey Neill The CFA has welcomed fire services law reforms introduced to the Victorian Parliament. The State Government put forward the legislation on Wednesday 29 May. It said the new Fire Rescue Victoria would cover the existing Metropolitan Fire Brigade boundaries and serve metropolitan Melbourne, outer urban areas and larger regional centres. Boundaries will be altered to reflect population growth, a change the State Government said fire services had requested for a long time. CFA volunteers serving at integrated stations can choose to stay there, co-locating with Fire Rescue Victoria services. The State Government said the 1220 volunteer CFA brigades would be untouched. CFA acting CEO/CO Gavin Freeman said the reforms were a great opportunity to im-

prove fire services to the whole community. The State Government said the Firefighters' Presumptive Rights Compensation and Fire Services Legislation Amendment (Reform) Bill 2019 would also provide presumptive rights to cancer compensation for career and volunteer firefighters. "This means all firefighters will have greater certainty in being able to access compensation benefits for specified cancers," Mr Freeman said. He said CFA members would be front of mind for the organisation's leadership team as it worked through the changes. "We commit to engaging extensively with volunteers, career firefighters and staff through the process," he said. But Gembrook MP and Shadow Emergency Services Minister Brad Battin said the State

Government was "again trying to ram legislation through the Parliament to break up the CFA and put the lives and safety of Victorians at risk". He said the Premier "did not have the courage" to bring it to Parliament before the federal election because he knew the Fire Rescue Victoria legislation was wrong. "It disrespects volunteers, it fixes no problems and delivers no increase to community safety," he said. Victoria's firefighting structures have not changed since the 1950s. The new model will not come into effect until mid-2020, which will mean no change for the 2019-'20 fire season. An implementation monitor will oversee the reforms and Fire Rescue Victoria and the CFA operations for 10 years.

SES clears tree blocking Maroondah Hwy By Jed Lanyon Healesville SES crews responded to a fallen tree on the Corner of Maxwells Road and Maroondah Highway at around 4pm on Thursday 30 May. The tree had blocked both lanes of the Maroondah Highway just outside of Healesville causing delays during peak hour. The Healesville SES had a busy day as they were also responding to a reported landslide in Dixon's Creek at around the same time. Traffic was diverted down Maxwells Road before the SES team cleared the highway before 5pm to allow motorists through. The SES would like to remind motorists that the speed limit is reduced to 40 kilometres per hour when emergency vehicles have their flashing lights on.

Drivers walk By Jed Lanyon Martyrs bus service will not be taking any public or school bus services on Tuesday 4 June as drivers from the Transport Workers Union (TWU) strike over pay negotiations. The disrupted services were impacting schools across the Yarra Valley, with one school forced to advise students who used a Martyrs service not to use a McKenzie’s school bus, but to instead have their family arrange the trip to and from school. The impact on public bus services is unknown as Public Transport Victoria did not respond to requests for comment by deadline. A statement from the TWU said its Martyrs members voted to take protected industrial action following months of negotiations and "after receiving the operator's latest sub-standard and insulting wage offer". The statement said members across the state were fighting for the surety of the Bus Industry Agreement claim of a 4 per cent wage and 1 per cent superannuation increase per year for the life of the agreement. TWU national president John Berger said members were fighting for a more secure future for themselves and their families. “Martyrs would have seen other TWU bus members strike on several occasions in the past year and they know we are serious in taking this action,“ he said. “We are available for constructive talks with the company at any time, but we are also prepared to stand together on a picket line if the company does not come to the table. “These drivers are hard-working members of the community...As it stands, they believe there is no other option but to take this action.“ Martyrs said that they were not at liberty to comment on the industrial action.

OPINION Reference committee Does bureaucracy continue to overpower democracy? The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) has advertised for the community to apply for a voluntary position on their new Yellingbo Conservation Area Community Reference Group (YCACRG). A second committee of authority is being formed, made up of government agencies, councils and green groups with land management responsibilities. This group is titled land managers. This is the decision-making committee. DELWP presented to the YCA co-ordinating committee (now disbanded) their grading of stakeholders - high influence/high interest: all conservation groups, government agencies, councils and indigenous owners; low influence/high interest, adjoining landowners, and those community members that submitted to

the VEAC investigation. A Yellingbo Conservation Area Community Reference Group Committee member, that unless a member of a conservation group, DELWP has already graded as of low influence. Interestingly they ask for people interested in agriculture and fire risk management. Yet they have already graded landowners and already done and excluded all local residents from the YCA Fire Risk Assessment. The Reference Group has no power of implementation only to inform the local residents of the land managers' implementation. Is the community group a PR exercise? To grade the value of Australians in this way, do we have a form of democracy that is relevant to what bureaucracy allows us? Are taxpaying, contributing rural Australians, now without voice?

Future waste plan Yarra Ranges Council will look into alternatives for the shire's waste, with the landfill it uses close to capacity. The Metropolitan Waste Resource Recovery Group (MWRRG) is working with more than 15 metropolitan councils to look at processing solutions for kerbside waste that is going to landfill. At their Tuesday 28 May meeting, Yarra Ranges Councillors agreed to join the group's search for solutions for the future. A plant to convert waste to energy is one possible solution. "Where we take our rubbish has a lifespan of less than 10 years," Cr Jim Child said. "Every piece of waste, landfill waste, leaves

our municipality, and we have to pay for that. "When this Hallam site ceases to function we're going to have a very serious problem. "We will have to take our waste further, which will cost residents more." "We have to start on this journey because we have to do something with our waste. "A message that we have to put out to all our residents is that recycling at your home is the biggest thing that you can be doing now." Cr Mike Clarke said this was a hallmark decision. "We're moving away from landfill," he said. "We just can't carry on like this. "Landfills have been the cheap way to do it. We've run out of spaces. There's no other option. "This is going to be a new industrial processing opportunity."

He said a waste to energy plant would sort through recyclables then incinerate the others to make energy. "It's the latest technology, I believe," he said. "It's most appropriate that we line up straight away with other councils to start the evolution of this new direction." Yarra Ranges Council collects and disposes of about 30,000 tonnes of household waste from landfill bins within the municipality annually through a regional landfill disposal contract with the MWRRG. This material is sent to the Suez Landfill in Hallam, which is projected to reach capacity in less than 10 years on current trends, at which time it would need to close. Hallam is the last landfill in Melbourne's eastern suburbs.

Snow time in Warburton The first snow for the season has fallen in Warburton - in May. The cold snap that hit most of the state brought plenty of powder to Mount Donna Buang and surrounds, which in turn attracted plenty of visitors to the area. This prompted several warnings, with the "great dumping of snow" making many roads impassable without a four-wheel drive vehicle. There were several reports of trees down across the roads and a grader was requested, along with VicRoads crews. Drivers heading up to check out the snow fall should drive to the conditions and their vehicle's capability, have patience and allow plenty of time.

Yarra Ranges Council is proposing speed limit drops on nine roads to improve safety. The council is advocating to VicRoads on the community’s behalf in response to concerns raised about safety. The proposal would reduce the speed limit on Old Healesville Road between Yarra Glen and Healesville to from 100 kilometres an hour to 80. Also in Healesville, the Lilydale Road speed limit would decrease from 60km/h to 50. In Coldstream, the Lauriston Drive speed limit would drop from 60km/h to 50 and Station Street would become a 60-zone, down from 70km/h. The Liverpool Road, Kilsyth, speed limit would reduce from 80km/h to 70km/h. The council has sent letters to residents on the proposed roads, outlining the proposal and asking for their feedback. Yarra Ranges residents and visitors are also encouraged to share their thoughts via www. yarraranges.vic.gov.au before 4pm on Friday 28 June.

For wheel support By Casey Neill The kindness of strangers is making life a little easier for a Yarra Ranges mum involved in a tragic accident. The woman, who did not want to be named, struck and killed a 41-year-old Wandin North man with her car on Lilydale-Monbulk Road, Mount Evelyn, just after 6.30pm on Friday 10 May. Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol Leading Senior Constable Scott Lardner said the young woman's two children were in the car with her. He said a crash scene reconstruction showed she was travelling under the speed limit. The man was wearing dark clothing and headphones, it was dark, it had been raining and there were no street lights. "She's devastated," Lead Sen Const Lardner said. But to make matters worse, she'd planned to change car insurance companies and let her cover lapse. So Lead Sen Const Lardner stepped in. He connected the driver with the deceased man's parents, who placed no blame on her shoulders for the tragic accident. He also decided the bill to get her car fixed, estimated at $5500, should be the least of her worries. "She has not asked for a thing," he said. "I've pushed the barrow to the front door of Yarra Valley Towing and Ashmores and they've picked up the handles." The police had the car towed to Yarra Valley Towing in Lilydale after the crash. Once they'd finished their examinations, Lead Sen Const Lardner explained the situation to the business. Father and son team Garry and Michael Kirkup immediately offered to wave storage

Michael Kirkup from Yarra Valley Towing, Greg Ashmore from Ashmores Automotive Smash Repairs, Leading Senior Constable Scott Lardner and Garry Kirkup from Yarra Valley Towing. fees and replaced the car's windscreen free of charge. Michael said community service was in their background. "It reinvigorates your community spirit," he said. "It's nice when you have a feel-good story." Lead Sen Const Lardner knew the team at Ashmores Automotive Smash Repairs, located a few doors down, so again explained the story and asked for any help they could provide. "They said they'd do it as cheap as possible," he said. Greg Ashmore said it was such a sad situation. "I was happy to help a local person," he said. "I've got kids as well, so I felt for her kids." He also reached out to Sunshine-based family business Just Jeeps Auto Wreckers for parts. The supplier slashed its bill by half, bringing the total for the driver down to about $2500. "They went above and beyond," Mr Ashmore said. The driver is still recovering from the traumatic event, but wanted to thank Lead Sen

Const Lardner and the businesses for their generosity. "I have always loved this community, but after all of this I feel even luckier to be a part of it," she told the Mail. She was "completely overwhelmed" with the unexpected generosity and kindness from the businesses. "It means more than they will probably ever know," she said. "To have people be so helpful, understanding and supportive in such an incredibly difficult time, I feel very lucky. "I can't thank everyone enough for all of their support and generosity with everything! "Just being kind to one another really does change lives." Lead Sen Const Lardner said this wasn't something he'd made a habit of in his 26 years as a police officer. "I've never done anything like this," he said. "This is just one out of the box." He urged people walking at night to wear fluorescent or reflective on their shoes, backpack or clothing and to avoid wearing headphones.

Raising our resilient kids Andrew Fuller is coming to the Yarra Valley. The well-known clinical psychologist has written best-selling books including Unlocking Your Child's Genius and From Surviving to Thriving. The health promotion team at Eastern Health engaged Andrew to speak at the Yarra Valley Health Promoting Schools Forum. The free forum for parents and teachers will be held at The Memo in Healesville from 6pm to 8pm on 20 June. Eastern Health health promotion officer Irene Dunne Pfeiffer said the event would share information with the community about an important topic. "This forum is a great way to offer some insight into raising resilient kids and supporting the resilient mindset at home and at school, and Andrew's input will be incredibly valuable," she said. Andrew has worked with young people in more than 1500 schools and has extensively researched how to create great mental health outcomes for kids. Parents and teachers can get up close with Andrew and learn how they can best support children with managing anxiety and promoting resilience. In addition, student representatives will share on what's happening in their schools, Eastern Health's child and family counsellor Fiona Sedgeman will speak, and the Respectful Relationships Art Competition Awards will be announced.

Lilydale needs a heart By Casey Neill Lilydale is at a turning point in its history and it needs a heart. That’s what Lilydale and District Historical Society president Sue Thompson told the 28 May Yarra Ranges Council meeting. She spoke in favour of the Lilydale Place Plan (LPP), which councillors agreed to endorse and place on public exhibition for four weeks. Ms Thompson was on the Lilydale Project Reference Group (LPRG) that informed the plan. The plan will guide the council’s decisions for infrastructure, programs and services for

Lilydale to achieve maximum positive impact for the community. Ms Thompson described the document as the “foundations of Lilydale’s future”. “Lilydale is at a turning point in its history,” she said. She said it had remained unchanged in decades, with its wide streets and a top and bottom end of town. But it’s also home to modern buildings, modern transport and lots of people. “We have to provide modern facilities and cater for the needs of today,” she said. “It is a balancing act, but one that we think

can be achieved.” Ms Thompson said Lilydale needed to be transformed into a “living city” and this would require funding. She said the council needed to promote the place plan to get the community supportive and involved, and needed to deliver on a project from the plan. “Let’s get on with it and transform Lilydale from a tired, heartless place into a place of vision,” she said. Top of Ms Thompson’s wish list for Lilydale is a town centre. “Lilydale has no heart. It’s got no focus,” she said.

She said a ‘heart’ could include a commercial kitchen for looking after homeless, rooms for classes, art spaces and meeting spaces. The LPRG included 12 community members and 12 council officers and met monthly throughout last year. Other key ideas that community members touted for Lilydale included focusing population growth within the town centre, supporting local jobs and businesses, improve traffic and transport connections, and improving public spaces and walking amenity. Visit www.yarraranges.vic.gov.au to comment on the plan.

Learning centre to partner with council again By Jed Lanyon Yarra Ranges Council has agreed to partner with Healesville Living and Learning Centre (HLLC) once again. On Tuesday 28 May, councillors approved the recommendation put before them to check HLLC’s finances and then enter a twoyear partnering agreement worth more than $63,000. The HLLC has been providing a range of community and learning activities in Healesville since 1979. In June last year, HLLC chose not to extend its partnering agreement with council, the only neighbourhood house to decline a new three-year deal. By September, a new CEO and board members reconnected with the council and other key funding bodies. HLLC treasurer Robynne Mauger told the council meeting there had been lots of positive changes over the past 10 months with a new

CEO at the helm, including new committee members with different skill sets. “It’s quite dynamic now,” she said. She said one change was that HLLC wouldn’t be a registered training organisation (RTO) and would instead partner with external RTOs to deliver courses. This would cut compliance costs. Councillor Fiona McAllister said that small investments into neighbourhood houses gave the council big returns. “We’ve been through an interesting time at Healesville ... I’m feeling really optimistic about the future,” she said. “The new CEO has uncovered so many opportunities for the centre to go into a very strong position for the community.” Quarterly performance measures would be included as part of the partnering agreement. CEO Jenny Branton said she wasn’t in a position to comment on HLLC’s previous administration and that she is looking forward to fostering a great relationship with council.

LOOK GOOD, FEEL GREAT

New doctors in town By Danielle Kutchel Conveniently located in the main street, Yarra Glen Medical Centre opened in April and is the only bulk billing surgery in town. The clinic is home to a full time female general practitioner, Dr Marziyeh Torkamani, as well as two other GPs. Having a permanent female doctor on staff as the principal GP, supported by other specialists, means the centre can offer a better, more professional level of care for the community. Dr Marzi and her team are able to provide care and support for the whole family’s health needs, including immunisations, chronic disease management plans, diabetic care, skin health and skin cancer checks, women’s, children’s and seniors’ health. The clinic can also provide minor procedures. Furthermore, a pathology clinic is on site, making this a convenient central stop for family health. Dr Marzi has 14 years’ experience as a GP, with a special interest in cancer and skin care and a postgraduate qualification in radiation oncology. “We are a local doctor for the local community,” she said. Yarra Glen Medical Centre can be found at 1, 14 Bell Street, Yarra Glen and is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. Contact them on 8400 6061 or email reception@ygmc.com.au.

YAVA welcomes artists from abroad

A monster good time

By Jed Lanyon

A stompingly-satisfying monster mash, Godzilla: King of the Monsters is clearly made with love for the original Japanese Godzilla films but has a scattershot, frustrating plot. With the world still reeling from the emergence of giant monsters known as Titans, the Titan Godzilla must fight for dominance against the malevolent dragon Ghidorah. While most of the characters are thinlywritten and the dialogue can be somewhat heavy-handed, the performances are engaging and the plot is driven by some compelling character arcs, including bitter biologist Mark Russell (Kyle Chandler) gradually finding peace with Godzilla and helping him fight the bigger threat of Ghidorah. The monster battles are brutal, glorious spectacles and the film is laden with references to satisfy Godzilla fans. Famous monsters Rodan, Mothra and Ghidorah, in their first Hollywood appearances, are formidable, portrayed faithfully and given ample screen-time (except for Mothra, who is short-changed), and composer Bear McCreary pays rousing tribute to Akira Ifukube’s iconic score for the final battle. Unfortunately, the plot jumps erratically from each set piece to the next with little explanation and the Orca, a device for tracking and controlling the Titans, is very poorly-defined. The monster action is fantastic but the human scale is chaotic and hard to follow, and the characters rarely seem like they’re in peril. King of the Monsters is a viscerally-entertaining monster rumble with some decent character depth, but Shin Godzilla, the most recent Japanese Godzilla film, is much smarter and better-paced. - Seth Lukas Hynes

YAVA Gallery and Arts Hub is currently showcasing the artworks of seven local artists, two of whom recently arrived in Australia and the Yarra Valley. Yarra Valley Arts Hub and Gallery invite you to view some of the work of artists Lee Herath and Brenda Meynell, whose work is influenced by their world travels. Ms Herath is a contemporary photographic artist and her work is inspired by the Japanese aesthetic philosophical concept of ‘Wabi Sabi’ which focuses on finding beauty in simple, modest and natural things. Ms Herath said, her work ‘goes beyond the surface to capture the spirit of the subject and create an appreciation for beauty in the ordinary’. Born in Sri Lanka, Ms Herath came to live in the valley two years ago. She and her partner were attracted to life in the country and the vibrance of life in the Yarra Valley. “It’s the art and the culture it offers, the food and wine and the community spirit that is so friendly and welcoming. There is so much potential to grow,” Ms Herath said. Ms Meynell worked in interior design and fashion in the UK but it wasn’t until moving to the Spanish island of Ibiza in 2004, that she found herself painting seriously. After dividing her time between Ibiza and Melbourne for four years she made a permanent move to the Yarra Valley last year. Her painting process is intuitive, rarely starting a painting with a fixed idea. Ms Meynell paints, strips back, paints again and in this way creates layers and a dialogue with the canvas, never knowing quite where

Brenda Meynell at YAVA Gallery and Arts Hub.

the process will take her but loving the freedom of the journey. Having lived and worked in overseas locations, Ms Meynell and Ms Herath offer an enriched world view which is reflected in their artwork.

The current exhibition of Yarra Valley Arts members is open 11am to 5pm, Wednesday to Monday until Sunday 2 June. YAVA Gallery and Arts Hub is located at 252 Maroondah Highway.

Day was dino-mite Dinosaurs took over Healesville Sanctuary over the weekend with kids dressing up as their favourite dinosaur to celebrate the ancient MegaBeasts that are calling the sanctuary home. An event of truly Jurassic proportions, kids dressed up as velociraptors, stegosauruses and spent the day learning all about the sanctuary’s MegaBeasts - the woolly mammoth, saber-toothed tiger and giant terror bird. A roar-some day, prizes were handed out for the best dressed dino and Mail photographer Greg Carrick caught all the action.

The event was held at Yarra Valley ECOSS on Sunday 26 May and featured Indigenous artists Kutcha Edwards, Amos Roach, Ganga Giri Boys and Men Didgeridoo workshop, Wayapa Wurrk with Michelle Atwell, Poetry reading from Nikki Madgwick and more.

The dinosaurs had a roaring good time.

Kangaroos kick on By Nick Creely Creating a winning culture and implementing good habits into the club are what's important to Officer as they continue to build on their year. Bouncing back from a tough start to life in the new competition, the Kangaroos are now well and truly back in the pack after securing their third straight victory in AFL Outer East Division 1, this time against a gallant Mount Evelyn at Starling Road on Saturday, 12.12 (84) to 7.13 (55). It was a tough, mature and at times exciting performance; one glittered with solid efforts from senior players and a sparkling three-goal display from a debutant. On Saturday, the Kangaroos took another step forward in what was their most consistent performance of the year, shaking off the Rovers, who stuck with the home side for the best part of the three quarters. The visitors managed to snag the first major of the afternoon, before Doug Koop's side got on a mini run - sparked from an excellent goal and mark from skipper Matthew Clarke to take in a 22-point lead at quarter time after kicking a goal on the siren. But, forcing the Kangaroos to turn the footy over and lose some of the spark created off half-back, the Rovers roared back into the contest, levelling the score at half-time after an unanswered three-goal term. The visitors looked like they could inflict the Kangaroos with an upset during stages of the third term after starting the second-half well, but some maturity shown by their leaders ensured they could find enough energy and momentum to wrestle back the lead with a quarter to play. In particular, young gun Tyler Clark enjoyed a stellar quarter, kicking the ball with precision and running hard to stamp his authority on the contest. It was a plain and simple message at the huddle as Koop prepared to address his side for the last time, "We've done all the hard

Bloods stay undefeated By Jed Lanyon

Mount Evelyn spearhead Robert Hartfield celebrates a goal. 194082 work, and we now need to finish it off." And finish it off they did, halting the Rovers who surged early with some brilliant defensive acts from Stephen Heppel and James Waldon, and some class coming through the middle from Tyler Clark, veteran Ben Tivendale and lion-hearted ruckman Sean Roach - who floated around the ground to have a big say on proceedings before the forward line went to work and secured the victory. For the Rovers - in an incredibly encouraging performance - forward Robert Hartfield looked solid to kick three, while Ryan Fooks enjoyed another strong game. One of the most exciting moments of the match came in the form of debutant Lachlan Carr, an excitement machine who kicked the sealer with a clutch set-shot before snagging another a minute later in a performance that netted three goals. In other Outer East Division 1 matches, Doveton defeated Emerald, 15.14 (104) to 11.11 (77) under lights, Monbulk remain undefeated with a 14.18 (102) to 5.5 (35) win against Warburton Millgrove, while Pakenham defeated Belgrave, 17.21 (123) to 14.6 (90). In the Premier Division, Olinda Ferny Creek put in a brave showing but ultimately fell to Beaconsfield at Holm Park, 10.17 (77) to 5.8 (38).

The Bloods led at half-time after a superb opening half, and trailed by just 17 at the final change, before three unanswered goals got the job done for the Eagles, with Sean Dwyer best afield for the hosts. Berwick also secured a hard-fought win, holding off Cranbourne at home, 9.15 (69) to 5.11 (41). In a tightly-fought battle, the Wickers didn't shake the Eagles until the third term, surging away after trailing by one-point at half time to open up a 34-point lead. Tim Gunn was superb for the Wickers with three goals. In the remaining matches, Woori Yallock defeated Healesville, 18.11 (119) to 7.5 (47), while 41-goals were scored in Wandin's incredible 76-point win against Upwey Tecoma, 26.21 (177) to 15.11 (101). In Division 2 action across the weekend, Seville got the better of Gembrook Cockatoo away from home, 17.13 (115) to 10.7 (67), Kinglake did what they needed to do in their 10.16 (76) to 6.5 (41) win against Alexandra, while Yarra Glen held on for a one-point win against Powelltown, 12.13 (85) to 13.6 (84) and Yarra Junction belted Thornton Eildon, 21.21 (147) to 3.5 (23).

Healesville's senior women's football team defeated Monbulk 3.4 22 to 1.1 7 on Saturday 1 June to continue their undefeated run in their first season. Both teams were 5-0 heading into their round six clash having beaten every other team in the competition before meeting in a top of the table clash. The game was a low scoring affair as Kathryn Gow kicked Monbulk's first and only goal in the opening quarter. Healesville's Jaimee Peterson kicked two goals and Danielle Carrucan kicked the other one to lead the bloods to a 15 point victory. Healesville now move one game clear on top of the ladder with an impressive percentage of 584.62 per cent. Healesville has conceded just 39 points in their six games in the league. Monbulk will play away against Upwey Tecoma in round seven, while Healesville will travel to play bottom-placed Thornton-Eildon. The new six team competition features Yarra Junction, Belgrave, Thornton-Eildon and Upwey Tecoma. For those still wanting to join the team, Healesville welcomes women aged 18-40 to contact the club to inquire about joining prior to 30 June.

This week’s crossword proudly sponsored by

The Heritage Family

On one of the coldest, windiest and wettest May days for many years, 15 hardy souls took to the Warburton Golf Club course on Wednesday 29 May to tackle both the course and the elements. It is no surprise, therefore, that the winning score was a hard-earned 34 points. That was achieved by a golfer who is enjoying a hot streak of form at the moment. Steuart Hawke conquered both the course and the elements to take home a voucher wellearned. The runner-up was Mark Gunther, who missed out on a tight countback, also on 34. Neil Leckenby was in the mix with 32 points and that was no surprise as he's a born and bred Scotsman - he described the conditions as mild! Balls only got down to 32. There was only one nearest the pin winner Leckenby, of course, on the tough 12th. On Saturday 1 June was the stroke and Monthly Medal competition. With weather conditions far more inviting, scores looked far more impressive, too. Promising junior Liam Kay took home the Monthly Medal with a stunning nett 66. The field was not large enough for an A and B-grade winner, so the runner-up prize went to Geoff Fall with a nett 68. Balls extended to 73. Michael Pinkster had a day out with no less than three nearest the pins. They were on the third, fifth and 12th. Andy Lockey zoomed in for one on the ninth and Liam took the one on the 15th. But the man of the day was that remarkable nonagenarian, Gerry Hadfield, who took out the captain's trophy after recording another impressive score. Most golfers would be happy if they could still swing a club at Hadfield's age. He now qualifies as a true living legend at Warburton Golf Club and long may he reign.

MOTORING

Driving home winter risk VicRoads has tips to help drivers stay safe on the roads this winter. Fewer daylight hours mean more hazardous driving conditions. Drivers planning trips to the snow should plan ahead and consider what they might encounter on the roads. It's advisable to drive more cautiously on all roads during winter, safely navigating Victoria's alpine regions can involve coping with more extreme weather such as blizzards, fog and black ice. When visiting any alpine resorts, VicRoads said drivers were required to always carry snow

chains and fit them if directed by authorities. Other tips include checking tyre pressure; checking lights/fog lights and battery are working; putting anti-freeze in the radiator; and packing an ice scraper and sunglasses for snow glare. To avoid getting into trouble on the mountain, VicRoads said drivers should always fill up their fuel tank prior to entering alpine regions. Diesel vehicles should fill up with alpine diesel mix, which is available at service stations in the alpine area. Before they head off, drivers should check for black ice warnings on traffic.vicroads.vic.

gov.au or download the VicTraffic app. Black ice generally forms at night time, in the early mornings or on sections of the roads that haven't been exposed to sunlight, like under tree cover. VicRoads recommended delaying a trip to avoid icy conditions. If drivers must be on the road during those key danger times, they should allow plenty of time, slow down, be patient and use a car equipped with electronic stability control (ESC) if possible. VicRoads said driving in snowy conditions required a lot of concentration and patience.

Drivers should stay calm if stuck in a long queue and always follow road signs and directions given by alpine resort staff - they are there for driver safety.

Luxury people mover from Toyota moves into space age

1187559-RC24-15

Toyota will offer a new luxury people mover aimed at high-end hospitality, family and corporate buyers when the new Granvia arrives in Australia later this year. Based on the all-new HiAce platform, the Granvia takes the concept of a large luxury wagon to the next level with premium seating for eight, a full suite of Toyota Safety Sense features and four-link coil-sprung rear suspension. Toyota sales and marketing vice president Sean Hanley said the new Granvia offered true luxury transport to meet the needs of those desiring a large spacious cabin, supreme comfort and superior refinement. "Whether you are in need of a five-star hotel shuttle, corporate transport for senior executives or just a large luxury family wagon, the new Granvia fits the bill," he said. "With a stylish European-inspired design, outstanding comfort, refined performance, a high level of safety features and impressive list of standard appointments, the new Granvia really is the last word in luxury people movers." The Granvia will be offered with a single turbodiesel powertrain and be available in two grades, featuring such luxuries as power sliding rear side doors, electrically-adjustable driver's and second row captain's seats, and leather-accented upholstery. On-road entertainment and information will be provided by Toyota's latest generation multimedia system that will be available with four USB ports and a total of 12 speakers. Both models feature nine airbags, active cruise control and pre-collision safety system (PCS) with pedestrian and daytime cyclist detection. Arriving in the fourth quarter of this year, the Granvia will take over the role that the long-standing Toyota Tarago has played. Both models will be sold alongside each other until the Tarago is discontinued at the end of the year. The Toyota Tarago was first launched in Australia in 1983 and has grown through four generations.
