A medal for Matt By Jed Lanyon Coldstream resident Matt Tingate has returned to Australia with a bronze medal after competing at the World Shooting Para Sport World Cup in Osijek, Croatia. The World Cup was Mr Tingate's very first international tour for the sport as a member of the Melbourne Gun Club in Yering. "It was a bit nerve racking being the first one ... But they looked after us here with a lot of practice and coaching so when you get over there it's not as daunting because you have done a lot of the hard work before you head over there." When asked for his reaction to winning the bronze medal, the gun club's talking parrot Jacko interrupted and chirped, "Nah, not surprised." "It was pretty exciting that's for sure," Mr Tingate said. But Melbourne Gun Club President Darryl Johnston said that Matt had been downplaying his achievement. "He was shooting against blokes who have been shooting in that arena for 10 or 15 years ... so for one lone Aussie on his first time out, it's pretty magnificent." "When Matt was picked in the team everyone was really happy. He's representing himself but also Australia and our club, so we're really proud of him." Mr Johnston said the bronze medal win came with a bit of drama. "He had gun problems early on in the competition and he overcame them to go on and shoot exceptionally well." Mr Tingate's comb had come loose and he lost the ability to adjust it, leading him to create a new comb from a piece of wood A comb supports a shooters cheek at a certain height, allowing them to align their eye with the weapon's sights. "I whittled it up at the club and got it working. It was a last minute adjustment but it did the job," Mr Tingate said. "To shoot is one thing, we all shoot and it's a bit of fun, but if you want to be in the elite circle, you've got to have that next level concentration and that's the key," Mr Johnston said. "Mentally, if you can't keep it together then things are going to go wrong. "When Matt's comb comes loose, most people would bin the event there because
that's too hard. "But that's what people who strive to be at the top do, they adapt to it and overcome and it got him there in the end." Mr Tingate was a high level motorcycle racer before an accident cut his career short 16 years ago. He suffered severe nerve damage to his arm and neck as a result and was able to regain movement to his arm after three years of paralysis. "I got sick of sitting around and needed something to do." Mr Tingate said his father suggested he try clay target shooting, while on a trip in New Zealand. "Then I came down to the local club here and met everyone. Everyone has been really supportive here at Melbourne Gun Club. "Anyone will come up and help you. It's like one big family really." Mr Tingate won the Duke of Gloucester Cup in November last year. "I just set my own personal goals. You sort of don't see it as competition as such, it's just an enjoyable time and to win an event here and there is just a bonus. "I like the satisfaction of breaking clays and just the camaraderie, the people and socialising at the club." He said he hopes to take part in the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics, but there is uncertainty around whether there will be enough countries involved in order for the event to be hosted.

The art comp for all By Jed Lanyon Budding artists of all ages and skill levels are invited to pick up their paintbrush and immortalise someone they admire, as Not the Archies returns to the Yarra Ranges after seven years. To mark the return of the Archibald Prize to the TarraWarra Museum of Art for the first time since 2012, council is reviving Not the Archies and is calling on local artists to get involved for their chance to have their portraits shown in the streets of Healesville and Yarra Glen. Yarra Ranges Mayor Tony Stevenson, said the commitment for Not the Archies was simple - paint or draw a portrait of someone in the community you admire. "Living in the Yarra Ranges, where we have a vibrant and diverse community, I'm sure anyone could quickly name someone in the area they think is great," Cr Stevenson said. "Not the Archies is a chance to show that person - and the community - what they mean to you, by creating and exhibiting their portrait in September. "Taking part is simple - we provide a uniform canvas to entrants for a small fee, then you just have to create a portrait and we'll show it in the streets of Healesville and Yarra Glen, as well as through projection exhibition events in other townships. "There are some great community programs similar to this, such as Face2Face in Warburton and the Upwey Archies, so it's great to bring Not the Archies back to this side of the valley." Entrants to Not the Archies pay a fee of $10 for adults or $5 for entrants 17 and under and
receive a canvas in a uniform size. From there, they're asked to paint a portrait of anyone they admire in the community, as long as they live, work or play in the Yarra Ranges. Healesville's Siena Chisholm won the under 18 category at the 2011 Not the Archies with a portrait of her mum Ali Griffin. Ms Griffin said she was overwhelmed to see her daughter win the award at such a young age. "It was amazing and very much surprising especially because she was only six at the time ... It was very special night." Ms Griffin is a local artist who has participated in previous Not the Archies exhibitions as well. She said she enjoys the community spirit of the Not the Archies and the fact that you get to paint the portrait of someone who inspires you. "You have a think about who might inspire you and for some people that might be someone that they don't know well and they get to know them by painting their portrait. "And for people painting their mum, dad, child or friend, it lets them know that they are inspirational to them." This year's Not the Archies will have great prizes in a number of categories, which will be announced shortly. Submissions are due 30 September. For those wishing to get involved, visit: https://bit. ly/33uhnio Submitted portraits will be exhibited in a street gallery from 12 October to 15 November.
Siena Chisholm's portrait “My Mum” won the 2011 under 18s category award.
Golden possum spotted in Dandenongs By Derek Schlennstedt
The golden brushtail possum was captured by Teagan Faull from Olinda.
Friends, folks, comrades - cop an eyeful of this golden possum. Look at it. Study it closely. You may never see another again - or you might, because this little golden boy actually lives in the Dandenongs. That’s right, in your back yard, while you’re sleeping at night, this golden brushtail possum could be crawling and trawling through your trash or roof cavity. I know what you’re thinking, though - the Dandenong Ranges is already known for its mystical wildlife, so what makes this one any different? Well, unlike the albino stag, or the ’completely real’ Dandenong Ranges black panther, golden possum is a true and real phenomenon and, most importantly, it’s been captured on camera. Teagan Faull from Olinda captured the
flaxen flavoured fella climbing a tree in Sherbrooke Forest on 12 August. From these photos, we can deduce that like his brush-tailed brethren, he enjoys nibbling on green things and scaling large trees, but that’s where the similarities stop. Unlike the common grey brushtrail possum, he is golden, which among any species suggests superiority. But, according to Healesville Sanctuary veterinarian Meg Curnick, the flashy golden fur might actually be a bit of a burden. Dr Curnick told the Mail that the Australian Wildlife Health Centre at Healesville Sanctuary saw at least one to two of these rare possums every year, and that their golden colour was the result of a rare genetic mutation called leucism. “As a ballpark - we would see several hundred brushtail possums at the Australian Wild-
life Health Centre each year, but of these only one to two would be golden brushtails,“ she said. “Leucism occurs in many species, and causes partial loss of pigmentation. "This leads to colouration which is paler than usual in skin, eyes, hair and feathers. “It is very likely that leucism is not a helpful mutation for brushtail possums. "Their pale colouration makes them more visible to predators, meaning that they are overall less likely to survive and reproduce in the wild.” So there we have it. The reason you don’t see these golden Pikachu-like possums is because they’re susceptible to bush dangers, and therefore have an unusually low life expectancy. It’s a twist that not even Mem Fox could have predicted.

IN BRIEF
Crossing feedback By Casey Neill The community can have its say on the proposal to remove the Lilydale's Maroondah Highway level crossing. The Rail Removal Authority will hold a public meeting to discuss the designs from 6pm to 8pm on Thursday 22 August at Lilydale Primary School. There'll also be a meeting to discuss the plans for the Manchester Road, Mooroolbark, removal from 10am to noon on Saturday 24 August at Manchester Primary School. "You're invited to attend our community drop-in sessions to find out more about the project and tell us what's important to you," the authority said. The Mail reported last week that plans to remove the crossings included new elevated stations and up to 450 new and upgraded car parking spaces at Mooroolbark. At Lilydale, the station and bus interchange will be relocated and walking and cycling connections will be improved between the town centre, new station and the Lilydale-Warburton Trail. Yarra Ranges Council's environment and
engineering director, Mark Varmalis, said council officers were advised that the State Government's Level Crossing Removals Authority (LXRA) would be looking for guidance from the community on several elements of the project, including the future use of the heritage Lilydale Station building, the bus interchange, connections to the rail trails, and integration of the proposed new station into the surrounding area. The coming meetings are the only faceto-face opportunities at this stage to provide feedback, but there will be mail-in and online opportunities. Mr Varmalis said the State Government also advised that there would likely be additional opportunities to provide feedback as the project progressed. But he said these early sessions were the most important for commenting on the project's larger elements. During a Lilydale Township Action Group meeting on Wednesday 14 August, council officers noted that there were several questions regarding local traffic changes that were unknown at this stage. Mr Varmalis said this included proposed
additional traffic lights on Maroondah Highway, and likely traffic volumes along Williams Street East and West, John Street, and the wider area. "We informed LTAG that we have contacted LXRA to request traffic analysis on what these changes are likely to be before we are able to formulate a position," he said. He said some community members raised the lack of additional parking spaces at Lilydale and officers confirmed that they would pass those concerns onto LXRA. "Council officers noted that LXRA has a 'no net loss' car parking policy as part of their projects," Mr Varmalis said. More than 53,000 vehicles use the two crossings each day, where the boom gates can be down for up to a quarter of the morning peak. There have been 13 crashes at the two sites in the past decade, including one fatality. The project will be complete in 2022 and will lay the ground work for further line upgrades, including duplicating sections of the Lilydale line and a potential new station between Mooroolbark and Lilydale.

Emergency services were called to reports of a tree falling on a car travelling along the Warburton Highway in Wandin North on Friday 16 August. The incident occurred about 11am and required police to divert traffic along Victoria Road. A spokesperson from Ambulance Victoria confirmed that while paramedics were called to the scene, there were no reports of injuries and nobody was taken to hospital. A member of Lilydale Police wished to thank passers-by who stopped to check on the welfare of the woman in the crushed car. They noted that some community members who happened to be carrying a chainsaw helped to cut and remove the tree. A tow truck driver appeared at the scene before emergency services had arrived.
The search to find a missing Woori Yallock resident has ended in tragedy. Police found a body in Woori Yallock, believed to be that of missing man Vincent Furfaro, about 1pm on Thursday 15 August. Police told the Mail that the death was not being treated as suspicious and that officers would prepare a report for the Coroner. The 60-year-old left his home on Shirley Crescent sometime between 9.30pm on Monday 12 August and 6.30am Tuesday 13 August. The mounted police branch was seen along the Warburton Trail assisting local police and SES teams in the Woori Yallock area. Police helicopters had also been spotted flying low over the area.
By Jed Lanyon Healesville Library celebrated Book Week early with a visit from award winning cartoonist and author Adam Wallace on Wednesday 14 August. About 170 students from Healesville, Chum Creek and Yarralinda Primary School's attended to receive a cartooning workshop and grab a signed copy of one of Mr Wallace's books. Mr Wallace is a New York Times bestselling author with over one million book copies sold. He led the way by teaching kids how to draw basic stick figures, facial expressions and then cartoon pigs It was a fun filled cartooning experiment as Mr Wallace encouraged students to sketch with their opposite hand and with their eyes closed. Some students dressed in costume and received a free copy of 'Rhyming with Cartoons', while Chum Creek Primary School teacher Kate Bilton dressed as a leprechaun from 'How to Catch a Leprechaun'. Since 2005, Mr Wallace has visited over 300 schools across Australia. It was a great turnout and it was so nice that they all came out.

College made its mark In the early years of the 20th century, Healesville had a private boys' college with its own army cadet unit. The college was associated with the Healesville Presbyterian Church, which in 1901 had established a residential college as a tutorial - that is, private teaching at the Presbyterian Manse by Rev J Heyer. The Manse - the residence of the Minister was a large house situated on a steep block set back from Nicholson Street and overlooking the Badger Creek Road intersection. It later became Cameer Guest House. Healesville College opened officially in 1902 with nine boarders and five day students. The principal was the Rev J Heyer and the headmaster Alexander Barrett Keage. EM Baird was assistant master. The prospectus praised "the natural beauties of Healesville, its healthy mountain air and quiet life, and its commanding position
Looking

Fees were two guineas (a guinea was equivalent to about $169 today) per quarter for day pupils aged under 14, and a guinea more for pupils over 14. Boarders were charged from 12 guineas per quarter, and had to provide their own bed sheets, pillow cases, towels and serviettes.
Extras were charged for music, painting, dancing, stationery and church (collection). Instruction included Greek, Latin and French, English in all its branches, all branches of mathematics, history, geography, mapping, science, bookkeeping, commercial correspondence, drawing and gymnastics. In 1904, Captain AB Keage purchased the college and re-established it in a building near the top part of Manse Street. This became the residential section with the main school building directly opposite, across Symons Street. This building included a rifle range and was set in extensive grounds. The college had an athletics program as well as a cadet corps under the instruction of ex-army captain AB Keage. A 1908 photograph suggests membership of about 30 boys including several bandsmen. In fact, after the visit of the officers of the
American White Fleet to Healesville in 1908, 32 cadets were invited to take part in a review at Flemington. Subsequently they were taken down the river in the steamer Lion to view the American battleships. According to the Healesville and Yarra Glen Guardian newspaper, "Needless to say the lads enjoyed the trip immensely..." They were inspected by the commanding officer of the Victorian Cadets who congratulated them upon their efficiency in drill, deportment and good behaviour. It seems the college existed for a comparatively short period as two properties comprising Healesville College and covering an acre of land were advertised for sale in June 1910. Later the main house became the residence of Dr Phillips and later still, Dr Steele.

Black Spur tree troubles By Jed Lanyon Murrindindi Shire Council Mayor Sandice McAulay has called for safety upgrades for the Black Spur after a falling tree killed a woman and seriously injured other members of her family on 9 August. That incident is one of at least three to have occurred in just over a month where trees have hit moving cars. A driver was fortunate to escape unharmed when a tree slammed into their car, while travelling along the Warburton Highway in Wandin North on Friday 16 August, just a month after a father and son were killed by a falling gum tree along Monbulk Road on 14 July. “In terms of the Black Spur, we know more can be done and needs to be done to both improve safety and improve information and traffic management when closures occur. “That’s why we have been calling on the Victorian Government to urgently undertake an independent safety audit of the Maroondah Highway through the Black Spur.” Victorian Minister for Roads Jaala Pulford spoke in parliament on Monday 12 August about the audit currently being carried out and advised that the expected completion date for this audit has been brought forward to September rather than the end of the year. “I’m also in a position to update the house today of a further $2.286 million in works that are soon to be undertaken to curves, warning signage, additional protection for road safety barriers and terminals and improve guide posts and line markings,” Ms Pulford said. “Whilst those improvements no doubt will help, we still have a very difficult stretch of road to be dealing with.” “Additionally, council has raised with Victorian government, the value of a governmentled feasibility study into an alternate or secondary route between the Yarra Ranges and
Emergency services responding to an incident on the Black Spur. our shire,” Cr McAulay said. A VicRoads Department of Transport spokesperson said, “Our thoughts are with the family, friends and first responders impacted by these tragic crashes. “As with any fatal crash on our road network, we are working with Victoria Police to investigate the factors which may have contributed to these crashes.” VicRoads recently told the Mail that while
they do not collect specific data regarding fallen trees on roads, their maintenance teams are regularly removing debris from traffic lanes and roadsides to keep the as safe as possible. And that weekly checks of Maroondah Highway are conducted for any visible hazards and are responded to immediately to ensure the safety of all road users. According to VicRoads, in the 10 years from January 2009 to December 2018, there has
been one fatal crash (in 2009) involving two fatalities and 31 serious crashes where 35 people were seriously injured along the Black Spur. In 2019, to date, there has been one fatal crash (August 9) with one fatality and two serious crashes where seven people were seriously injured. Results were recorded from McKenzie Avenue, Healesville to the Dom Dom Saddle Picnic Area.

LETTERS Mountain Views memories Reading the 40 years edition of Mountain Views brought back memories for me. I loved the headline 'Big plans for rail station'. The artist impression doesn't really match what we see today. The same with the old Army camp. That could and should have been turned into a great tourist attraction but editor Mardie through the paper was instrumental in
how it is today. She certainly backed some winners. Bryan Pomeroy, Wagga Wagga, New South Wales
More than traffic Obviously the removal of traffic interrupting level crossings is going to be welcome news. What has to be seriously considered by both state and local governments is the recognition of what Lilydale Station is at the
moment: a terminus. Nevertheless, upgrade by all means but cut off and don't consider further population growth at your peril. More and more people are using trains, statistics are clear, but new houses everywhere and further out will never stop, and to totally terminate the railway system is simply foolish. Coldstream needs a new station now, with a big carpark, and room for train stabling to take the pressure from Lilydale. If you put the station in the sky, there will
be no room for stabling, hence the need for that to go to Coldstream and perhaps keep the crossing for the handful of train movements out of the yard. This is not simply a suburban issue, but an issue for those of us who live in the close country towns of the Yarra Valley and beyond. This is definitely NOT just about road traffic movements.

Impressions count By Casey Neill First Impressions count. The saying is particularly true when it comes to job interviews, so long-term unemployed women in the Yarra Ranges are helping others in their position to get a leg-up. Clothing library First Impressions is taking shape in The Terrace shopping centre in Brice Avenue, Mooroolbark, and will likely open its doors on Wednesday 4 September. Participants in Cire Services' Women's Warehouse program, a partnership with Employment Plus, came up with the concept women can buy or rent clothing for a job interview or other important occasion. Renee Cooke from Cire said women could also seek styling tips, run through their resume or practice interview techniques. "They're going to be getting that one-onone assistance," she said. "A lot are overwhelmed, but they'll be dealing with people who know what they're going through." First Impressions will share a shop space with the Mooroolbark Artist in Residence project. Artist Mandy Pickett's project will focus on sustainability and creating art from cloth, so the library was a perfect fit. She'd also been involved with Women's Warehouse in Healesville. The women volunteering their time at First Impressions are gaining skills that prospective employers are seeking. Cire's Sue West, who also founded Money Natters and is the Voices of Women president, said two participants had already landed jobs after learning new skills and adding them to their resume. They've been involved with grant applications, marketing meetings and more. "It's lovely to see them enthusiastic about
Sue West, Dianne, Samantha, Kylie, Renee Cooke and Hope. this project," she said. Classes in repairing and repurposing clothing are also on the agenda. All money raised through the shop will cover overheads and could one day fund a standalone store. Cire's Nina Bekker said each woman involved had her own skill set that was being built upon. "It's about connecting and building real employability skills and leadership skills," she said.
Women's Warehouse has been nominated for a Learn Local Award in the Creating Local Solutions category. Winners will be announced on 23 August. First Impressions will open Wednesday to Friday from 10am to 2pm. Anyone who'd like to donate good quality women's clothing to the project can find dropoff points at Cire Yarra Junction, Seville Community House, Cire Lilydale Campus or Chirnside Park Community Hub.
Fire ready By Jed Lanyon Yarra Ranges councillors have unanimously approved the planning application for a Launching Place property that had previously been identified as a fire safety risk by a council officer. The property development at 215 Milners Road, Launching Place received the tick of approval from the CFA for meeting bushfire safety standards. Bushfire consultant Sally Van de Paverd informed the councillors about some of the features that will be implemented to minimise the risk of bushfire. "The whole roof can be plugged and flooded like a shower base, which is the most ingenious design I've seen in any fire rated building. You could actually light a fire on top of it, it's that solid." "There isn't any long fire runs. The vegetation is not what I would consider a high risk in large runs. "The longest distance to travel through high risk vegetation is 750 metres. "The dwelling has been designed particularly well. It's probably the best design that I have ever seen to cater for flame contact." Councillor Jim Child described the property plan as a bunker above the ground. Ms Van de Paverd said that a few planning options were considered for the land. "This was a massive decision and a long process. I looked at three different sites on the block," Ms Van de Paverd said. The chosen site was considered as it would require less than two CFA hose lengths to reach the property. "It also enables people who are in there to get out a lot easier." Ms Van de Paverd was so impressed by the application that she said she would be recommending it to be submitted for an award.

Big dollars from big roast
Plant power
By Jed Lanyon
"Being able to team up with HEWI is great ... It's working in the community, its hands on stuff. So it ties in perfectly with the program we run. "Being able to read about what we are going to do, answer some written questions and then actually physically go out and do it, it locks it in and cements it in there as a skill that has been learned." HEWI project facilitator Karen Garth explained how they were able to plant on the block of land which sits off Farnham Road and backs on to Grace Burn Creek. "For years we all thought it was a residential block that hadn't been built on because it's as wide as all the others but it's actually an unmade road reserve."
By Jed Lanyon Healesville Environmental Watch Inc (HEWI) hosted another tree planting session with Healesville High School students on Wednesday 15 July. HEWI recently planted 800 native plants along the Grace Burn for National Tree Day on 28 July and returned to place another 200 plants along the waterway. Healesville High School trainer Dale Edmondson said the students were involved in the planting day as part of their conservation and land management studies. "As part of their unit, they need to do the book work and on top of that they need to show that they have done some practical work.
200 more native plants now sit along the Grace Burn. 196803

The Bowness family of Healesville hosted their annual Big Roast fundraising event on 28 July and raised $24,998 for the Royal Children's Hospital Cystic Fibrosis Research Trust. Kirsty and Stephen Bowness were inspired to create the event when they found out that their two children Liam (11) and Grace (10) were born with the incurable genetic condition. The Bowness family stumbled upon the idea of The Big Roast when Grace, who was four at the time said, 'Sixty-five roasters', mispronouncing the condition she shares with her older brother. "Ultimately this event contributes to the health and future of Liam and Grace and so many others out there living with Cystic Fibrosis and for us, there is no greater gift," Ms Bowness said. "Grace is now 10 and Liam 11, and events such as this are the path to more Cystic Fibrosis research and working towards a cure." The Big Roast was hosted by Rob Dolan Wines in partnership with The Farm Yarra Valley. "My wife Jude taught both children at their primary school at St Brigid's Catholic Primary and when we heard about the families' story, it was a no-brainer for us, we just had to become involved," Mr Dolan said. Last year the event raised $18,461. Cystic Fibrosis primarily affects the lungs and digestive system due to a malfunction in the exocrine system that's responsible for producing saliva, sweat, tears and mucus. One child is born with the genetic condition every four days in Australia and there is currently no cure.

"I'm looking forward to having a really great day with some of the group members ... and putting out a really good, positive message to the community."

Too many Tarantino-isms
Movies at Healesville and Warburton The Memo, Healesville
Aladdin Jones and his daughter Marni at Healesville Sanctuary. 196714
Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is an engrossing tribute to classic Hollywood, but may be director Quentin Tarantino's most bloated and undisciplined film yet. The film has witty dialogue (a Tarantino trademark) and groovy '60s atmosphere, and the plot has a sturdy backbone in its insecure protagonist Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio). DiCaprio delivers a raw, poignant performance as a movie star struggling with alcoholism and afraid of being typecast in hollow tough-guy roles later in his career. Dalton is both pathetic and deeply sympathetic, and watching him finally accept this new stage in his career and claw back his selfrespect is very gratifying. But Once Upon A Time's pacing is slack and
full of dead weight, with several superfluous main characters. Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) functions as an unemployed but more stable and content counterpart and friend to Dalton, but Booth doesn't develop in any substantial way. Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie) is established as a sweet, up-and-coming actress but the film does almost nothing with her. The film also features heavy exposition through obtrusive narration (a frustrating Tarantino trademark) and a tacked-on sub-plot about the Manson family cult. The Manson family is barely established as antagonists before the home invasion climax, and appropriating a real mass murder as a triumphant moment for fictional characters feels tasteless, even for Tarantino. Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is a compelling character piece burdened by poor pacing and a forced finale. - Seth Lukas Hynes mailcommunity.com.au

Tracey Robertson-Smith Principal Healesville Primary School provides a friendly, secure and encouraging environment for our students and community members. We value highly the contribution made by every member of our school community. We believe that preparing students for a changing world is essential to a successful education. Our Values of Respect, Community, Confidence and Learning are the foundations of our school. Our team of professional educators and dedicated support staff take great pride in the standards of both our curriculum and extra-curricula activities we provide. Our curriculum offers a balance of Literacy, Numeracy, Positive education, Physical Education as well as the Arts. Our students further develop their sense of community by participating in Cultural Education, which focuses on the Culture and Traditional Heritage of Healesville. We encourage our students to be the best they can be and to give everything a go. I believe it is important to lead by example. I am always looking for opportunities to learn and I always endeavour to try my best whether it be as a school principal, teacher, mother, friend or colleague. I regard myself as truly lucky, as I genuinely love what I do. I believe there is no greater reward than teaching and working with others to achieve their goals. So again, I am very lucky to be working at such a wonderful school that has the community at its core and wants to move forward, as we as a school, strive to be the best we can be.

Paul van Breugel joined Cire Community School as Principal at the beginning of 2019 after 10 years of leading two large government secondary colleges in Gippsland.
Our students come from diverse backgrounds and choose Cire because larger mainstream schools don’t suit them, there are gaps in their education or barriers to their engagement, or simply because of our welcoming community environment. We base our approach on research into disengaged students, traumainformed practice and up-to-date research into why students disengage and how they can be successfully reengaged. Our staff are trained in the Berry Street Education Model which supports our community schooling model. Cire Community School is a great place to work and to learn together with our students. I look forward to every day because of our welcoming and friendly community environment, and the positive difference we help make to the lives of our students, their families and our broader community.

Meet the Principal We Learn For Life I am proud and privileged to have been the Principal of Wesburn Primary School for the past 14 years. Our motto, We Learn for Life, epitomises the values we place on developing well-rounded students equipped for adult life. These are a consistent guide to behaviours and attitudes and help to ensure that students play cooperatively together, value diversity, have high expectations and aim for excellence, resilience and respect. The school has recently undergone a very successful review which highlighted our many strengths. These include fostering communication and meaningful partnerships with parents/carers and the broader community, and providing consistency and highly individualised instruction for all students across the school in teaching and learning. Students believe that their learning is both stimulating and engaging. I am proud of staff and their commitment to providing the best possible education for every student and impressed by the students who strive to achieve to their full potential. Parent volunteers are an asset to our school in so many ways and are greatly appreciated for all that they do to make it such a special place to learn. Our students also have many opportunities to influence school directions with a strong student representative council and attendance at school council meetings. We also provide a broad range of opportunities including the Kitchen Garden Programme with Stephanie Alexander, school performances, camps, buddies programme, lunchtime woodwork shed, specialist classes in art, physical education, music and Japanese, and much more. A strong relationship between teachers from playgroup, pre-school and secondary school supports an effective transition programme. Our ongoing vision is to ensure the highest quality teaching for all students, empowering them to be actively engaged in their learning, to be resilient, reflecting school values and contributing to the development of the whole school community.

My belief in education is that students learn best when they are empowered and have ownership over their learning experiences. This is evident everywhere at Seville Primary School: in the classroom our students are driven by individual learning goals and structured student choice to attain them; while in the yard our students are looking after our chickens, garden beds and orchards, or playing sport on our vast 7 acres of space. Our dedication to small class sizes allows teachers to better know your child’s individual

Teaching and learning are a passion of mine and I feel blessed to come to work each day to be able to see our students set personalised learning goals and strive to achieve them. We enjoy celebrating student successes every day at Hoddles Creek. Hoddles Creek Primary is a smaller school so we are able to truly offer an individualised learning program for all our students.

Scott says, ‘’Three years have flown by since joining Upper Yarra secondary College and it has been a very exciting and enjoyable experience. I continue to be impressed by our dedicated staff who work so hard with students to achieve their best, and by our students who amaze me with their successes in so many different areas. It has been rewarding to establish a clear direction for the school, working together with the school community to develop the school’s vision and values. I believe it is important to lead by example, and I am continually studying to improve my skills as an educator and leader to show our students that opportunities for learning never end! After completing my Masters in School Leadership in 2012, I have continued to focus on Leading Numeracy and more recently Leading Literacy. Returning to the classroom to teach Literacy has been an absolute pleasure. It has given me the opportunity to practice the skills being taught in Leading Literacy as well as the chance to get to know students. I am thoroughly enjoying my time at Upper Yarra Secondary College and I look forward to seeing you around the College or in our community.”

At Badger Creek Primary School, we provide students with an aspirational outlook and the skills to succeed in all aspects of life.

Our core values of Responsibility, Respect, Integrity, Pride and Care & Support guide our teaching and learning and are actively promoted across the school and within our school community.

Finally, the ‘big rock’ that connects and supports our programs are our community connections. We are very fortunate that we have a school community that supports the development of every child. We have strong connections to Healesville Sanctuary and the Badger Creek Men’s Shed that allows us to further cater for individual learning. Our parents are an asset to our school and many support the school through fundraising efforts, working in the Learning Hub and helping in the classrooms.

Darren Trippett Since joining Yarra Hills Secondary College in 2012, College Principal Darren Trippett has overseen the largest transformation in the school’s 56 year history. Darren came to Yarra Hills with over 25 years’ experience, much of that in leadership at the acclaimed Vermont Secondary College. In 2007, Darren was individually recognised as a ‘High Performing Young Leader’ by Professor Brian Caldwell, former Dean of Education at the University of Melbourne, being chosen to represent Australia in the International Network for Educational Transformation, International Conference in Beijing, China. After initially assuming the Campus Principal role at the Mt Evelyn Campus, Darren soon moved into the position of College Principal, which he has held for the last six years. In his time at the helm, Yarra Hills has completed a $20 million rebuild of the Mooroolbark Campus, as well as significant improvements at Mt Evelyn. Along with this, a renewed focus on school values, aspirational goals and ground breaking online curriculum development has led to great interest in the school from the local community. As a result of this, Year 7 enrolments have surged in recent years, with continued demand for existing spots in other year levels. Darren says “I believe that we have a great deal to offer prospective families, and we are working hard to continue to improve in all areas to become the school of choice for the local community”. He says it is certainly challenging, but a very rewarding experience seeing the school transform under his guidance.

This year, Yering Primary School celebrates 150 years in education. What an achievement! Being a small school, I am very lucky to have a variety of tasks as a teaching Principal at Yering Primary School, especially teaching our P/1/2 class. At Yering, we encourage community participation through YVFM ‘Schools In’ program, Animal Aid, a large ANZAC involvement, Yarra Glen Men’s Shed, Lilydale Library and other local sources. We offer individualised learning that focuses on providing student support and nurturing student’s talents and achievements. We develop the emotional, social and physical traits to encourage the cognitive abilities in our students. We work on student voice to ensure that students are listening to others, and are able to express their opinions and ideas confidently and respectively. Students are also encouraged to be involved in their own learning; setting goals, challenging themselves and others, and having input into their learning. We encourage our students to become risk takers. I appreciate being able to observe each student mature, grow and develop into amazing individuals in their time with us, to being ready for secondary school. Our annual school production, celebrating student achievement, sporting events and the many wonderful opportunities and excursions that we are able to provide in a small school, are significant highlights for our students. At Yering Primary School, we have a clear focus to continue to improve student learning outcomes and aim to provide a safe and caring environment in which all students can achieve. Feel free to call me to arrange a tour of our school. I would be delighted to have the opportunity to show you around.

Well known by our students for my obsession with Outer Space, I may well be the ‘spaciest’ Principal in the Yarra Valley. I’m energised by the great relationships I have formed with all of our students. I have been leading Warburton Primary School on a journey to build our students’ resilience, independence and courage as learners. We are focused on a re-development of our approach to the teaching and assessment of mathematics, while constantly improving our approach to literacy through the reader’s and writer’s workshops. Our teachers are professional learners and they know how to build relationships and nurture the whole child. As a teaching Principal I work with our Senior students at different times throughout the week, as well as teaching Digital Technologies to the whole school. Highlights this year have included our famous Art Expo, our introduction to School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support and our continuing involvement with the local community.

COUPLE IS BACK IN BLACK AND WHITE
Sa tu Ph r ot 11. da O o 00 y FI ID – 24 re 1 th qu 1.3 Au ire 0a gu d m st at O FI
MANY will know these familiar faces. Brett and Tammy have reignited their real estate careers, starting a new agency branded Black and White Real Estate Healesville. Having previously operated two successful market-leading agencies, they exited their business in 2015 to pursue local and overseas travel. "The scenery in our country, especially the outback, is breathtaking but it also made us realise how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful area here in Healesville," they said. "The number of tourists visiting here on weekends is testament to that." Brett has worked in real estate in the Yarra Valley for more than 30 years and estimates he has sold more than 750 homes in Healesville alone during that time. Tammy started her real estate career in 2003 and has gained extensive knowledge in all areas of the industry through managing both the rental and sales departments of their previous agencies. Focusing solely on sales in Healesville, the new agency will offer a premium level of service with both Brett and Tammy working on every client's property as a team. "We like to think of ourselves as a small but perfectly formed sales agency," they said. "Working in conjunction with us you are ensured the exposure, knowledge and expertise you would expect from a larger agency, but the premium service you will only receive from a smaller business built around 100 per cent client focus." Brett and Tammy will ensure selling their most valuable asset will be a seamless, efficient process for their customers. Rather than endeavouring to list every available property for sale, their business model is to list a limited number of homes in order to provide an exceptional service. For an obligation free assessment or just a friendly chat, call Brett or Tammy. ●
Brett & Tammy are excited to announce the opening of their new business Black & White Real Estate Healesville. Following a 4-year hiatus from their previous real estate business to pursue some travel goals, they are excited to be back in the industry they know so well. With over 45 years combined experience, their new business offers a premium service with both Brett & Tammy working together as a committed sales force in Healesville. If you are thinking of selling or would like an obligation free market assessment, call Brett or Tammy for unparalleled service.

Over the past few weeks one question has been asked across Queensland, South Australia and Victoria - which state has the fastest straight track racing greyhound? On Sunday 18 August the answer was revealed. The Healesville Greyhound Association hosted the inaugural National Straight Track Championship at its picturesque Don Road venue. The question was being asked as the eight runners - six from interstate and two Victoria representatives - headed to the boxes. It didn't take long to get an answer. In fact, it came in record time as the local Hoddles Creek-bred, Devon Meadows-trained Victorian - and regular winner at Healesville Peter Galo raced away by four lengths in a new track record time of 18.65 seconds. Queensland-trained Certification finished second with another Victorian, Myrniong And All, filling third position. Healesville connections of Dusty's Charlie (Queensland) should be proud of their runner finishing a very creditable fourth in the event after having a few hurdles to overcome in the

Eildon MP Cindy McLeish congratulates Panthong and Gary Selkrig on the win. week leading up to the race. With a large crowd in attendance to watch this new event on the racing calendar and the presentations to trainer Garry Selkrig after the event, it was a very exciting time. Peter Galo is now looking to contest the Healesville Cup heats on 1 September. Having already won a Group 2 event and
now a Group Listed event, his prize money has reached in excess of $139,000. If Sunday's performance and time is anything to go by, he might add another $47,000 in September at cup time. The 2020 National Straight Track Championship will be conducted at Capalaba in Queensland.
Barratt gets on an unlikely roll Sometimes golfers get on a roll and can be on song for a whole round. This can happen to A,B or C-graders. But it doesn't happen often in the middle of a very wet winter, when the course is not keen to give up super-good scores. Warburton Golf Club secretary Ken Barratt had one of those rounds in the Wednesday 14 August stableford. When all others in the field struggled to play to their handicap, Ken accrued 40 really mailcommunity.com.au
impressive points to win the day in a canter. The runner-up with 35 pretty good points was Steuart Hawke. Oddly enough, balls only went down to 33. The nearest the pins on the day were won by 'Old Man River' Hubbard on the third, Andrew McMath on the 10th and Garsy on the 15th. In the Saturday 17 August par contest, an impressive +7 was good enough to give David Lever the voucher for the day.
'Pup' will rapidly reduce his very generous handicap quickly at this rate. The day's runner-up was Troy Murphy with a creditable +3. Players who scored square or better can claim a ball. Nearest the pins on the day went to PK on the third, his son Sean 'Bruno' Kennedy on the fifth, Andrew Rasmussan on the ninth and Junior Garside on the 15th.
Urquhart a winner By Karl Hradsky Par was the name of the game for the Healesville Social Golf Club (HSGC) this weekend with the rain staying away until after the games were finished. Greg Urquhart (14) led the field with a very solid +4. Second on countback was Peter Monk (15) to Greg Hay (26), both with +1. Nearest the pins were hit by Greg Urquhart, Travis Carroll, Ken Arnott and Tom Carroll. In the double match play events, Wayne Fenner and Vince Gillett defeated Ken Arnott and Mitch Hay (out injured), Travis Carroll and Greg Urquhart defeated Allan Larkins and Craig Stewart, with Greg Hay and Peter Monk defeating Laurie Tormey and Karl Hradsky. A superb eagle was hit by Peter Monk on the first, dropping the ball in the hole from 140 metres out. Tuesday, 20 August, 2019

Life’s a Beach for duo By Dean Thompson Pakenham and Ferntree Gully racers Dale Morrison and Lee Beach combined as a team to win this year's three-hour endurance motorsport race at Alexandra Speedway. Their combination of XF Ford Falcons outlasted a long list of fancied teams in a frenetic finish to the event, where leaders dropped out of the way and the strategy of Morrison and Beach played its part in seeing them in the front spot at the right time, with a lap up their sleeve. Morrison and Beach both come from a history of racing against each other and are also both members at Alexandra Speedway Club. They formed a combination just to go out and have some fun, but as the race went on they found themselves in the hunt and with 15 minutes to go they knew for sure they could secure a top five finish. Fifteen minutes later, though, they were collecting $2500 for winning the whole show. Early in the race, Lennie Bonnici, Matt Nelson, Darren Forrest, Frank Ramsdale, Damien Miller and Warrick Taylor set a blistering pace at the front of the field. Bonnici would get some distance ahead and Nelson would catch him in traffic. Several incidents caused caution and redlight stoppages and affected strategies. Drivers got caught out in the wrong place in the queue, affecting their run, and others just had to pit during long green light stretches which put them down in the running order. Robert Garlick became a welcome yet unlikely race leader and kept going on and on and on, before eventually handing over to teammate Matt Callanan. Their run unravelled as did the runs of others who pitted just when it looked like they might go on to win. Darren Forrest was a certainty to win the race with four laps left, but his machine let go on him and he had to dash back to the pit enclosure to put his team mate back in the race. After 180 minutes, Beach brought he and Morrison to the finish line almost a full lap ahead of second-placed Bonnici and Shane O'Brien. Next was father and son combination Jeff and Jake Blencowe, with brothers Damien and
Dale Morrison, from Pakenham, and Lee Beach, from Ferntree Gully, won the three-hour endurance race. Brendan Miller in fourth and Forrest and Ben Moon rounding out the top five. In celebration of the victory, Morrison and Beach embraced atop Beach's race car. There was a kiss or two planted on the noggin of each other as the emotions poured out. Both drivers paid tribute to each other after the event with a similar message shared. "As a race driver you hope to do well, however you look at the quality entry list and lot has to go right for you to win," Beach said. "I figured we could finish top 10, then as the race went on we figured top five, top three and then here we are, we are winners. "I thank Dale for his efforts and his mate
ship, everybody for supporting us and helping us and Alexandra Speedway Club and its volunteers for providing us the opportunity to do what we all love." Supporting the enduro racing was junior sedan racing, and Lilydale racer Kasey Garlick won her final ever junior sedan race in front of Chloe Sheerman and Jayden Bryant, who was competing in his first event at top star level. In new star junior sedans, Dylan Barrow won the final in front of Seth Sloane and Rye Orme. Alexandra Speedway Club is now on hiatus until the new season kicks off in the third week of October.

Great weather for ducks - and mud trials With mud the order of the day, the Austin Seven Club couldn't have asked for a better weekend to host its Lilydale Observed Section Trial. The events are known as mud trials or sporting trials in other parts of the world and are an integral part of the Austin Seven Club. Sunday 11 August was the 70th John Pryce Memorial Trial at Lilydale. There are about 12 trials held annually, but the weekend's was the best known. It was originally named the Park Orchards Trial because of its location in the Melbourne outer suburb, but was relocated and named the John Pryce Memorial Trial in honour of the renowned club member who introduced the sport to Australia in 1950. Mail photographer Greg Carrick attended and snapped some of the action - from what we hope was a safe distance to avoid mudspray!

Bloods outclassed away By Nick Creely Olinda Ferny Creek battled hard to bring down the mighty Berwick on their home deck, but the class of the Wickers won out in an intriguing AFL Outer East Premier Division clash, 13.10 (88) to 6.19 (55). The all-important ability to convert opportunities in front of goal was the difference between the two sides, with the Bloods registering 25 scoring shots to 23 but ultimately falling five goals short. Despite the Wickers surging out to a 20-point quarter time lead, the Bloods actually equaled the south east reigning premiers in scoring shots, and could have very easily snatch the lead in a terrific second quarter, however conversion hurt them as they kicked 2.7 to slash the deficit to just 11. The class in the forward half in the third quarter saw the Wickers take the game away from the Bloods - who were still matching the visitors in the contest - kicking four goals to one, before easing their way home in the final term. Harry Money slotted three for the Wickers to be a constant threat to the Bloods, Madi Andrews' excellent recent form continued through the middle, while Luke JellymanTurner provided his customary drive. For the Bloods, skipper Marcus Hottes was excellent, while Luke Hill was named best in a promising performance. Down at Holm Park, Beaconsfield showed little mercy on the way to a 196-point win against Healesville, 33.19 (217) to 3.3 (21). The Eagles had winners all across the park, with Matthew Johnson (six goals), Sean Dwyer (five) and VFL-listed Riley Verbi (five) all filling their boots as Leigh McQuillen's side make a late run to snatch third spot. Woori Yallock also picked up a big win, controlling their clash with Upwey Tecoma at home, 23.20 (158) to 6.16 (52).
Pakenham forward Darcy Hope celebrates a goal on Saturday. 196704 The home side were challenged early, but pulled away after quarter time to kick 19 goals to four across the final three quarters to take the dominant win. Mitch Arnold and Ben Monkhorst each slotted five goals for the Tigers, while Zach Monkhorst (four), Kane Thompson and the classy Hayden Smith were in vintage touch. In the final game of the Premier Division round, Narre Warren pulled away from Cranbourne away from home in the second half, 20.18 (138) to 7.8 (50). Wandin had the bye. In Division 1, the race for the minor premiership is set to be fought on the final day of the home and away season on Saturday, with

Pakenham and Monbulk stuck on 52 points. The Lions - who snatched top spot last round for the first time of the year - controlled their clash with Doveton from start to finish at AJ Robinson Oval, 12.18 (90) to 8.9 (57). The Doves really paid for turnovers in the first quarter particularly as Ash Green's side controlled the footy and made them pay, and despite some fight in the second term, the Lions just had all the answers to silence the home crowd. Jake Thompson was outstanding for the Lions, Joe Baker-Thomas was excellent in the ruck, while Joel Sarlo played arguably his best game of the season.

Monbulk, meanwhile, did what it needed to against Mount Evelyn to keep touch with the Lions, 12.15 (87) to 6.16 (52). The Rovers were right with the Hawks for three quarters, and if not for inaccuracy - particularly in the first half - could have nearly taken a potentially match-winning lead. But a six-goal final term sealed the deal for the Hawks, with Michael Langworth snagging five goals to be best afield, while Daimon Kift was named the best for the Rovers. In the remaining matches, Emerald were too good for Belgrave, 18.15 (123) to 7.10 (52), while Officer's recent run of extraordinary scoring continued with a barnstorming win against Warburton Millgrove, 25.9 (159) to 3.6 (24). Gembrook Cockatoo, meanwhile, qualified for finals on the final day of the Division 2 home and away season with a mammoth win against Yarra Glen, 18.17 (125) to 7.6 (48). With the winner of the blockbuster locking themselves in for finals on Saturday, the Brookers just gave the visitors no chance in a blistering display after half time. The visitors led at quarter time in what loomed as a low-scoring grind, but the Brookers fought back to take the lead at half time after a four-goal to two second quarter. But it was the class that came to the fore in a dominant second half, kicking 13 goals to three in the final hour - with Tarkyn Lockyer (five) and Michael Firrito (four) showcasing their immense skill - to run away with the game and book an elimination final showdown. In the first round of the finals this Saturday, Yarra Junction take on Kinglake in the qualifying final, while Gembrook Cockatoo plays Powelltown in an elimination final. Seville finished as minor premiers and will enjoy the week off before kicking off their finals campaign.
