Noosa’s Queensland Day heroes

By Margaret Maccoll Twelve-year-old Jarrah Small is a passionate conservationist.

As an animal rescuer with WILVOS and Wildlife Noosa she volunteers to help rescue pelicans and other sea birds entangled or injured.

As a Plastic Free Noosa volunteer she has spoken at universities and community events to educate the public on the problems plastic causes in waterways.

Jarrah was one of 25 Noosa heroes recognised last night at the 2021 Noosa Electorate Queensland Day Awards ceremony.

Noosa is filled with inspirational people who volunteer their time and services across our community to make it a better place.

Noosa Today joined Noosa MP Sandy Bolton and Bendigo Bank last night to put a spotlight on some of these people as we celebrated our local Queensland Day Awards recipients at a ceremony at The J Theatre.

Covid jab shortage leaves Noosa GPs...

Playing catch-up

By Margaret Maccoll

12497020-DL22-21

A handful of Noosa GPs are doing their best to vaccinate Noosa locals against COVID19 but the supply of doses to them is not keeping pace with the demand.

The doctors have also reported delays in supply arrivals leading to clinic cancellations, difficulties contacting Queensland Health about vaccine supplies and the need for more providers to provide vaccination.

“This is important. We may be playing catch up but GPs are working to do their darnedest to help,“ Dr Richard Heath of Sunrise Beach Medical Centre said.

His clinic has been receiving only 100-150 doses of AstraZeneca vaccine per delivery and vaccinating 30-40 people per day.

He said the surgery had employed two extra staff to vaccinate the population and could easily double its program if they were able to access more doses from Queensland Health.

It’s a similar case at Noosaville Seven Day Medical Centre which has also enlisted the help of extra staff to deliver vaccinations and deal with administration and documentation requirements.

Practice manager Louise said they were vaccinating 300 people a week and were inundated with calls from people wanting the vaccine.

Across Noosa about half a dozen GP clinics are listed on the Australian Health Department website as providing COVID19 vaccine with some recording no stock available.

At his solo doctor practice Noosa Heads Medical Centre Dr Nick Hummel first contacted his own vaccine-eligible patients to speak to them about obtaining their vaccination before opening up to the broader community.

“Definitely people were reluctant. They perceived their risk to be worse than what it was,“ he said. Dr Hummel began his first COVID vaccination clinic on 21 April with an allocation of 50 doses a week. He was able to increase supply to 150 per week and after vaccinating about 80

per cent of his patients he opened his doors to people outside the practice with about 95 per cent of those now being vaccinated coming from other clinics. “We have the facilities and staff to run a vaccination clinic. There’s a lot of interest. There’s not enough providers doing this. We could do with more,“ he said.

The clinic has now vaccinated about 1000 people. About 40 per cent have shown mild side effects such as fever and headache lasting only hours and two patients showing more prolonged symptoms but they were not severe or life-threatening and there have been no cases of blood clots, he said.

A spotlight was shone on regional newspaper publishers and their team’s achievements at the Queensland Country Press Association (QCPA) Media Excellence Awards on Friday.

Publishers, journalists, photographers, and advertising staff from across Queensland gathered in Brisbane to celebrate the success of member newspapers and discuss the importance of the industry.

Noosa Today, along with the growing Today branded newspapers in Queensland, published by independent Australian family owned media company Star News Group, was recognised through a wide range of awards.

Noosa Today took out the Best Special Publication award for Seniors Today, which covers a wide range of pertinent topics for the Sunshine Coast’s large retiree company.

Judges said the 40 page tabloid booklet was packed full of great articles highlighting locals in action.

Noosa Today photographer Rob Maccoll was recognised for his excellence in two images; ‘Schoolies arrest’ and ‘NYE Casualty’, while Gympie Today journalist Arthur Gorrie was awarded for his shot covering the Fraser Island fires.

Noosa Today journalist Margie Maccoll was also awarded for her consistent excellence in reporting.

Seniors Today Advertising Sales Executive Louisa Kneller celebrates the Best Special Publication award.

QCPA president and Today Queensland Sales Manager Phill Le Petit said, “The awards are such an important date on our annual calendar as it enables editorial excellence, advertisement design and product innovation to shine.“ “Seniors Today (Sunshine Coast) special mention must go to Louisa Kneller, advertising and Tania Phillips, editorial for the outstanding work combining together to lift a brand new publication in it’s first edition to win this award out of 48 publishing members of Queensland Country Press Association.“

Covid-19 vaccine delays From page 1 Dr Hummel said since the recent COVID19 outbreak in Melbourne the demand for the vaccine had increased significantly and the clinic was now booked up two weeks ahead.

While vaccination hubs are being set up in southern states to deal with high-density populations Dr Heath believes in Queensland GPs provided the most appropriate and most effective method of distribution, having long term vaccination experience.

“We vaccinate 150 people a week without the COVID vaccine,” he said.

Dr Heath agreed there had been “lots of interest” from people wanting the vaccination and he had found “not a large amount of vaccine hesitancy”.

The only side effects noted at his clinic to date have been from “some people feeling a bit fluey for a day or two”.

“The vaccine is 100 times safer than driving to Brisbane,” he said.

Under the current rollout Australians in Queensland aged 50 and over can get a COVID

vaccine at either a Queensland Health vaccination location, GP clinic or Aboriginal Controlled Community Health Services.

People in Queensland aged under 50 who are in phase 1a or 1b can book and appointment to get a COVID vaccine at a Queensland Health vaccination location.

People aged between 40 and 49 can register their interest to get a COVID vaccine.

Queensland Health says you will receive the vaccine (either Pfizer or AstraZeneca) recommended for your age and other eligibility criteria.

Dr Heath said local GPs had only received AstraZeneca vaccine with the Pfizer vaccine available at Nambour and Sunshine Coast University hospitals which had the required refrigeration facilities to store it.

He said if Queensland comes in line with southern states which he predicts will occur in 6-10 weeks he expects GPs will also be enabled to have Pfizer.

The editor’s desk Happy Queensland Day to all this Sunday 6 June.

Those of us who live and holiday here know it’s the best place in the country to be and a quick glance at history shows this is backed up by thousands of years of Indigenous occupation.

Before European explorers caught a glimpse of Australia, Queensland was the most populated region of the country by the Aboriginals who called it home, because of its warmer climate and abundant wildlife.

I suppose it’s no surprise the Europeans would prefer to settle in the southern states in an environment more closely mirroring their own, after Lieutenant James Cook claimed Australia for England in 1770.

This Sunday we mark the approval

by Queen Victoria of the separation of Queensland from NSW on 6 June, 1859.

She must have noted its value considering its naming.

In the past year the way we work has changed dramatically, thanks to COVID19, and I’m not the only one to notice the influx of people of all ages moving to our region from southern states.

More people are realising the benefits of living in Queensland. In Noosa our lifestyle is much improved because of the people who give of their time freely to make it a better place. Some of them have been recognised in the 2021 Noosa Electorate Queensland Day Awards.

This week we salute them.

Noosa’s unsung heroes

By Margaret Maccoll Noosa would not be the place it is without its volunteers.

All areas of our community from arts and education to service clubs and environmental organisations to sport and recreation are powered by the efforts of volunteers.

Last year COVID-restrictions prevented Noosa from celebrating Queensland Day together and paying tribute to our unsung heroes.

This year 25 worthy recipients from all areas of the community and aged from 12 to 90 years were recognised at the 2021 Noosa Electorate Queensland Day Awards ceremony.

“Queensland Day is an opportunity to celebrate our culture, heritage, people and unique identity,“ Ms Bolton said. “We also get to honour our inspiring Queensland role models who encourage us all to do better and be better. So many of our Noosa locals do this by working for the benefit of others and for our collective community.“ Noosa Today joined Noosa MP Sandy Bolton and Bendigo Bank to highlight the efforts of our local Queensland Day Awards recipients at a ceremony at The J Theatre last night.

Some of this year’s recipients have been volunteering for many years and in some cases, decades.

Lloyd Cairns, 90, is a long-term member of the Tewantin-Noosa Bowls Club and as a volunteer was instrumental in its formation and construction. For many years Lloyd was also an active member of the Noosa Surf Club and would daily swim the length of the Main Beach.

For the past 24 years Terry Nash has headed to the Uniting Church Hall on a Wednesday morning to lead the Keep Fit for Seniors class to keep the members mobile and flexible. With help from his wife, June, Terry continues to

Queensland print revival

By Matthew Pearce The revival of independent newspapers took a strong new step last month with the resumption of printing at the Rockhampton print site.

The sounds of the presses were silenced last June following the closure of News Corp’s regional newspapers, but Today Print marks an exciting new beginning for Queensland media.

The former APN Print site at Hempenstall Street, Rockhampton is back up and running again following the press’s purchase from News Corp.

The site will print Today Group newspapers from across Queensland, including Gympie, Rockhampton, Bundaberg, Noosa, Burnett and Kingaroy mastheads, as well as the most recent launch, Ipswich News Today.

In the future, the sky’s the limit for Today Print, with plans to print other newspapers from throughout Queensland and pick up commercial work.

Director Paul Thomas said Today Print was an important investment back into Queensland.

“This is a significant restart of an important industry that will service the whole of Queensland, based in Rockhampton,“ he said.

“We have a group of passionate independent publishers behind the Today papers and we hope everybody will embrace what is an amazing facility for the state.”

Operations manager Wayne Layt, who worked at Rockhampton’s Morning Bulletin and APN Print for 20 years, said Today Print had already re-employed 10 staff, who had previously worked at the print site.

“Our staff are very happy to be back at

“It’s been a big effort to get the site back

up and running after it was closed for nine months, but the presses are finally running in Rockhampton.“

Dog mauls brush turkey

By Abbey Cannan A Noosa wildlife rescuer is calling for warning signs for the public after a brush turkey was mauled to death by a dog in Hastings Street.

Goetz Schweinfurth was called by the manager of Aromas Restaurant & Bar Noosa on Sunday afternoon after they saw the attack.

“The owners of the dog did not have it on a lead and children and patrons were all very distressed and upset,” Goetz said.

“The manager of Aromas rang me, as I do all the wildlife in the area, and I raced across and we found the seriously injured female turkey in the Sebel car park entrance.

“It was still alive but died in my lap on route to the vet. It was so sad. I gave it a burial in the Noosa Woods.”

Goetz said it wasn’t the dog’s fault as the owners needed to have a leash on the dog.

“Some people down at the dog beach actually enjoy it when their dog runs after a turkey and they think it’s funny,“ he said.

“I just want to get the message out there that this keeps happening and no one seems to care.

“We need more informational signs. It’s about educating the public.”

Wildlife roams freely across Noosa Shire and is continually at risk from cars, dogs and other animals.

Council’s Principal Environment Officer Peter Milne said it’s impossible to erect warning signage in every location across the shire.

“Wildlife such as brush turkeys are continually on the move, particularly during certain months and not always in the same location as the signs,” he said.

“We urge people to be respectful of the wildlife and remind dog owners about their responsibilities to keep their pets under control at all times,” Mr Milne said.

Two students at St Andrew’s Anglican College are one step closer to making this a reality, winning the Gen[in] Student Entrepreneurial challenge and $4000 prize money on Friday.

Year 10 students Kia and Ethan have developed ‘Gen Aquarius,’ a product that has been designed around the philosophy of a clean, safe, and sustainable future for how we generate water.

The device, which they have developed through extensive research and community consultation, uses a nanofibre to collect water from the atmosphere around it, alleviating the need for a pre-existing water-source.

“We don’t do enough for them in this harsh times. However when we work togeth-

er, we can make real change happen. So join us on our journey to make a difference, we are passionate for our national community and this is our message.”

The design has been carefully constructed to ensure it is safe (reliable, strong), clean (materials, components, and smart) and the best materials and manufacturing techniques are used.

Kia and Ethan joined the gen[in] challenge earlier this year, and were shortlisted as a finalist from more than 250 entries. They then spent two days workshopping with business mentors, fine tuning their idea and gathering information and feedback from industry professionals.

“We had been feeling very confident with regards to nailing our concept and delivering it effectively to the judges,” Kia said.

“We took advice of our business mentors

on board and being flexible with change and open to suggestions, practiced a lot for our presentation and did loads of research to make sure that the product was unique and valuable.”

The next steps for this dynamic duo is create an MVP (minimal viable product) and enter the testing phase with real farmers.

“We will use Kia’s family garage to manufacture our product in-house in the beginning stages. This is where we will begin our journey to establish Gen Aquarius,” Ethan said.

“We will continue to make improvements until it meets customer satisfaction and are focused towards making a fully functional product to begin selling in the near future.”

Kia and Ethan plan to enter more entrepreneurial competition to further increase their innovation portfolio.

Village fund boost Tourism Noosa’s ‘Noosa Villages Tourism Funding Boost’ supporting the Noosa Shire’s Village communities and business associations has delivered significant results for the region.

Several projects have been delivered in the past five months with more to come.

The program introduced in late 2020 was made possible with Tourism Noosa not being able to support larger events that were unable to take place due to COVID. Tourism Noosa’s CEO Melanie Anderson said the one-off funding was in line with the organisations strategy and marketing approach to facilitate visitor dispersal throughout Noosa’s villages.

“With a goal to enhance the visitor experience, fill gaps in a depleted events calendar and assist in bringing increased revenue to Noosa’s tourism businesses, the funding has already been used to deliver some exciting projects from Cooroy to Hastings Street, to the Noosa Junction and Tewantin, with more planned throughout the Shire,” Ms Anderson said.

“The funding opportunity was provided to the business, traders and chamber associations as Noosa’s peak business community bodies.

Enchanted event at Peregian Beach.

“We believe they are best positioned to work with their stakeholders and their communities to develop and deliver projects.

“These projects all have the goal of adding greater economic value to the businesses they represent and provide enhanced reasons for visitors to experience their unique villages.”

The Pomona and District Chamber of Commerce [PDCC] is very excited to be able to install an electronic touch information screen in Pomona as a result of Tourism Noosa’s Villages funding.

PDCC President Phil Moran said, “This initiative is a great boost to the northern hinterland and will assist locals and tourists to be more aware of what our outstanding region has to offer.”

“Tourism Noosa is a valuable partner and recognises the importance of linking the coast to the hinterland.

“The success of the Noosa Country drive is a further example of this strong partnership.”

Kylie Plunkett from the Peregian Beach Business Association said, “Peregian Beach was alive with vibes of music, art, fashion, feasting and foraging during the 2021 Easter holiday Village Vibes Festival thanks to the Tourism Noosa’s Villages Funding Boost.”

“We could not have realised this concept without the generous support from the grant received from, and marketed by, Tourism Noosa.

“The event was a celebration of our community, our indigenous, wellness, sustainability and environment.

“The feedback from both our members and local community has been incredibly positive and Village Vibes will now become an annual festival on our Peregian Beach Business Association event calendar.”

Witness appeal for Noosa stabbing Sunshine Coast detectives investigating a stabbing on a Noosa bus are appealing for witnesses.

Around 1pm on Friday 7 May, a fight occurred on a Translink bus (#620) travelling northbound on David Low Way towards Noosa.

A verbal disagreement between an 18-yearold man and two male teenagers broke out, during which time the 18-year-old sustained a wound to his upper chest, causing a cut

which required stitches.

The two teenagers alighted from the bus at the Mahogany Drive bus stop with the 18-yearold staying onboard. He later sought treatment from a medical centre.

The two teenagers are described as Caucasian with proportionate builds. Detectives would like to speak to anyone who was travelling on bus 620 around 1pm on the 7th and witnessed the incident.

Two mates play Majestic

By Phil Jarratt Almost 50 years ago, classically-trained Melbourne blues and rock musician Andy Cowan was walking down Hastings Street, Noosa, when he spied in the window of a hot dog emporium a small, hand-written notice: “Keyboard player wanted.”

“How often do you see an ad like that?”

Andy laughs while enjoying a coffee at a sidewalk cafe in Pomona this week. “Never. It was bloody amazing, so of course I phoned the number and took the gig with a rough little band called Bunky’s.” For a muso who’d just left the respected Madder Lake and would go on to stints with Skyhooks and Ayers Rock, among many other headline bands, this was a different track.

A two-week holiday in Noosa to see his fish-crazed grandfather turned into a two-year stint for Andy and wife Wendy, playing bar and surf club gigs along the Sunshine Coast. He recalls: “There were really only two bands getting regular work around the coast then, and they were Barry Charles and the Rockets and Bunky’s. Barry and I would meet up at places like Rio’s or the Green Cherry and sometimes jam together, but we never played in the same band. We were all in our early twenties, loving the sun and the surf and the mateship of playing music together. It was a perfect time.”

But when their son was born in Nambour Hospital, Andy and Wendy decided it was time to go home to their Melbourne families, and Andy became a Skyhook. Barry Charles, by this time fast becoming a legend of live music in Noosa, remained friends with his new jamming partner, and the two musos got together often over the ensuing years, in Melbourne and Noosa, with Barry ultimately recording an album at Andy’s home studio in Olinda, Victoria.

While Barry has remained a Noosa institution, renowned for his eclectic musical style and his extraordinary vocal range, Andy’s

But nothing has been able to split this amazing musical mateship, and since Andy and Wendy moved back to the Sunshine Coast a couple of years ago, the two mates have been recording in the Cowan home studio in the Noosa hinterland, and have performed together for a oneoff concert at The Shed in Yandina.

Says Barry: “We do have similar tastes when it comes to the standards, but our original songs are different. I guess Andy will do the blues and I’ll do Tom Waits!”

Noosa restaurants join in Noosa restaurants and Harbour Fish Market have joined an award-winning shell recycling project to build reefs.

The Nature Conservancy Australia (TNC) welcomed Noosa favourites Grenny’s Noosa by the River, Noosa Yacht & Rowing Club and Noosa Harbour Fish Market to its Shuck Don’t Chuck project.

“I warmly welcome the help of local Noosa restaurants in our work to restore oyster ecosystems in the Noosa River,” Craig Bohm said, Ocean Coordinator, Queensland at TNC Australia, “they are making a great contribution to helping improve the River’s health and we highly value their involvement.”

The Shuck Don’t Chuck shell recycling program was first established in Melbourne and now works with over 30 top restaurants and seafood wholesalers. Noosa is the project’s second location and was selected for its sustainable seafood culture and shellfish reef restoration project.

The process involves collecting used oyster shells from restaurants and seafood wholesalers before sterilising them for six months in sunlight at a dedicated shell curing site in Doonan.

The cured shells are then incorporated into the bases of the oyster beds, helping to attract oysters and other marine life to settle onto the beds.

The shells are also used in the process of breeding local Noosa oysters in a hatchery, which are later placed onto the new oyster beds as juvenile oysters to help boost oyster ecosystem recovery.

Noosa Yacht & Rowing Club, Grenny’s Noosa by the River and Noosa Harbour Fish Market are three new restaurants who are recycling, washing, and storing oyster shells for the Noosa oyster ecosystem restoration project.

Noosa Yacht & Rowing Club General Man-

ager Ashley Little said, “We dispose of so many shells here each week, and I love our local marine environment and the river.”

“I am proud to be part of the Noosa oyster ecosystem restoration project.”

Shuck Don’t Chuck also helps restaurants and wholesalers reduce landfill by diverting shells from going to waste.

Noosa Harbour Fish Market General Manager, Woody Ramsay said,“I am happy to collect the oyster shells rather than dispose of them, especially if they can be used towards helping restore oyster ecosystems to good health.”

Grenny’s Noosa by the River Manager, Amanda Hyde said, “I like the idea that our used oyster shells will be recycled back into something worthwhile. It’s great to know looking from here (in the restaurant) across the river, that we are helping to restore some part of the river’s environment,”The restoration of oyster beds in the Noosa River will restore a lost ecosystem while also improving habitat for fish and marine life. Oyster beds provide food-rich habitat for a diversity of fish species. Estuarine fishes use the beds for resting, hiding from predators, spawning, and feeding on planktonic prey and smaller fishes in and around the beds. TNC recently announced an extra $1.2 million for the restoration of shellfish ecosystems in the Noosa River estuary.

The Shuck Don’t Chuck shell recycling program now works with over 30 top restaurants and seafood wholesalers.

Golfers score fun

By Jim Fagan On any other day Noosa Springs is a tough, challenging golf course but recently it put on its happy face. Ask any of the players who took part in the fundraiser for Katie Rose Cottage and they’ll tell you it was a day of fun.

And for the hospice staff it was a day to say thank you for the $32,000 raised for their compassionate work in caring for the dying.

A field of 120 took part, the idea coming from club member Simon Gamble, a former Noosa stockbroker and enthusiastic supporter of the Doonan haven.

“Katie Rose has such a fantastic position in the community,” he told Noosa Today. “When I lived in Brisbane and Melbourne I was involved in a lot of charities but I’ve never seen a charity so highly regarded.

“Here, when you approach a businessman and say I’m doing this for Katie Rose the answer is ‘Yup, I know what it is.’ It is rare to get a refusal.”

Simon said he was fortunate in having on board club members Chrissy Hordern and Peter Catchlove who have organised many golf days and competitions.

“With their terrific connections in the golf industry and with the help of local businesses we had each of the 18 holes sponsored for $500.

“Some wonderful prizes for the competitions, auction and raffles were also donated.”

Carol Raye, chairperson of Katie Rose Cot-

The three who made the golf day happen - Peter Catchlove, Chrissy Hordern and Simon Gamble. tage, said: “Our hospice is so grateful to the community for the tremendous support we always receive. It was a fabulous day for all with ‘on course’ activities and the charity lunch that followed.

“We sincerely thank all the sponsors along with those who donated prizes and a thank you, too. for many ‘private donations’ that contributed to the day’s success.”

She also thanked “all the Katie Rose and Noosa Springs volunteers and the golf day committee Simon, Chrissy and Peter.”

NOTE: The event, a two-ball stableford, was won by David Connolly and Adam Watts of Century 21.

Council will meet to adopt the 2021/22 budget on June 30.

“This includes a proposed new rating category for short-stay properties to ensure they are paying their fair share.

“We’ve budgeted close to a million dollars for our popular Community Grants program which adds greatly to our shire’s social capital. Our Environment Grants too are in for a boost.”

Detectives have released CCTV footage as they investigate the armed robbery of a Sunshine Coast business on Saturday.

Around 12.50pm a masked man entered the King Street store armed with a screwdriver before confronting two staff members and demanding items.

The employees complied before the man fled on foot with a sum of cash and jewellery.

He is described as around 170cm tall, solid build, olive complexion wearing a neoprene black mask, orange cap with a shaved head with short facial growth being black and grey in colour wearing black leggings with navy blue shorts, white runners, white long sleeve t-shirt with maroon sleeves, with a long sleeve black rash type vest underneath.

Initial inquiries indicate the masked thief may have had a sleeve tattoo.

Investigators are appealing for anyone travelling around the King Street or Mill Road area between 12.30pm and 1pm on Saturday, May 29, with dash cam footage to contact police.

Noosa Council calls for budget feedback Residents are invited to have a say on Noosa Council’s Draft 2021/22 Budget.

Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart said the $153 million draft budget responded to priorities residents put forward during online and face-to-face budget consultations earlier this year.

“We’ve considered all of that input in developing the draft budget, which is now online for residents to review and comment on,” the Mayor said.

“Key features include greater investment in our Community Grants program and a 100% increase in fire preparedness measures, such as hazard burns and fire trail creation and maintenance.”

A modest levy will help fund the added bushfire protections and support volunteer rural fire brigade emergency response operations within the shire.

“Residents told us they wanted a significant infrastructure investment. An ambitious $47 million capital program will progress work on important big ticket projects such as the Tewantin Bypass and Hinterland Adventure Playground, plus fund many more.”

Council reviewed its differential rating categories as part of the COVID recovery, and several proposed changes will ensure all property owners contribute equitably,

A man has passed away in hospital following a two-vehicle traffic crash in Grandview on May 27.

Initial investigations indicate a four-wheeldrive was travelling east on Landsborough Maleny Road when it collided with a stationary ute at Maleny Montville Road.

The 71-year-old man driver of the ute was airlifted to Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a critical condition. He died early Monday morning as a result of his injuries.

The alleged driver of the four-wheel-drive, a 51-year-old woman, sustained minor injuries in the crash.

The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating.

Drug charges in Maleny Sunshine Coast Police have executed multiple search warrants in the Maleny area on May 25 .

During the searches of the properties, police allegedly located and seized dangerous drugs, including 62 cannabis plants and stolen property.

A total of five people were charged with 17 offences.

A 22-year-old Conondale man was charged with possession of dangerous drugs and will go through a drug diversion program.

A 69-year-old Beerwah man was charged with possession of dangerous drugs and will go through a drug diversion program.

A 25-year-old Landsborough man is expected to appear in the Caloundra Magistrates Court on June 16, charged with supplying dangerous drugs and other drug related offences.

A 49-year-old Landsborough woman is expected to appear in the Caloundra Magistrates Court on June 16, charged with fail to dispose of a syringe appropriately.

A 39-year-old Brighton man is expected to appear in the Caloundra Magistrates Court on June 16, charged with producing a dangerous drug.

Police will continue to target individuals who traffic drugs profiting from the harm caused to not only users but those who are victims of crime as a result of illicit drug supply as well.

Students raise funds

By Abbey Cannan A Noosa school has raised funds for an organisation with the goal of improving the welfare of dogs and cats in Asia.

Noosa District SHS Interact Club, along with Rotary Club of Cooroy, held their international fundraiser, and this year it was a dog walk called ‘Bark in Park’.

All funds from the Bark in the Park event are going to the Soi Dog Organisation based in Thailand.

The organisations’ goal is to better the lives for both the animal and human communities, to create a society without homeless animals, and to ultimately end animal cruelty.

Interact Club Executives Bianca Grau and Sofie Byrne said it was really fun event and everyone who participated, with or without a dog, had a fantastic time for a great cause.

“The entire event was a large success as 53 people attended. We raised $468 which included generous donations from participants and the hand baked cookies sold,” Sofie said.

“The event officially started at 9am at the Apex Park in Cooroy on Sunday 23 May, but many people arrived early eager to participate with their dogs.

“Everyone who registered on the day also got a raffle ticket towards a $100 voucher for

Noosaville restaurant sells for $2.075M Aussie made at Eumundi

A local investor has snapped up the freehold of popular local restaurant China Jade as 27 Mary Street in Noosaville sold for $2.075 million.

The 1,032sq m freehold provided a freestanding building with northerly facing aspect and offered a rare dual income opportunity from the restaurant and separate residence above.

The property was marketed and sold by Ray White Commercial Noosa and Sunshine Coast North Property Consultant David Brinkley.

“This was a terrific sale for our vendor and fans of the China Jade restaurant can be rest assured that they are staying put” Mr Brinkley said.

“It was the appeal of having a dual income from the one site that really sparked the interest and we saw a large volume of enquiries from both local and interstate investors.

“Investment stock is thin on the ground at the present time with buyer demand outweighing the investment opportunities by far. This in turn is great for vendors looking to cash out while the market is still strong.

Book in for breast screen Noosa women aged over 50 years are being urged not to put off regular health checks and book in for their regular free breast screen.

A recent report by the Australian Institute for Health and Welfare found that breast cancers detected through screening are less likely to cause death than breast cancers diagnosed in women who have never had a breast screen.

BreastScreen Queensland Sunshine Coast medical director Dr Alison Roper said, “Finding breast cancer early when it is smaller means that women have more options for treatment. Early detection can literally save lives.”

“In the Noosa area, less than 50 per cent of women in the 50 to 74-year age group are having regular breast screens, compared with the Sunshine Coast average of 55 per cent.”

“We have a new mammography machine

at our Noosaville service and are extending the opening hours to make it as convenient as possible for busy women to access the service.

We hope this will encourage more women to come for a breast screen,” Dr Roper said.

Women aged 50 - 74 are encouraged to have a breast screen every two years as studies show that this age group benefits the most from regular screening. The service is also available free to women aged 40 - 49 and over 75.

“Appointments are one-on-one with a female health professional, take less than 30 minutes and no doctor’s referral is needed,” Dr Roper said.

The Noosaville Service is open every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and one Saturday each month.

To book a free breast screen phone 13 20 50 or book online at breastscreen.qld.gov.au.

Noosa women aged over 50 years are being urged to book in for their regular free breast screen.

Needle-free vaccine trial USC Clinical Trials is about to begin a study in collaboration with Australian biotechnology company Vaxxas, developers of a potential new needle-free vaccine delivery technology - the high-density microarray patch (HD-MAP).

The trial of this new vaccine delivery technology will be led by Dr Indika Leelasena at the USC Clinical Trials centre at Health Hub Morayfield.

Dr Angus Forster, Chief Development Officer at Vaxxas, said the study will investigate the safety and tolerability of a measles and rubella vaccine delivered by HD-MAP and assess whether it provides an immune response comparable to a standard intramuscular dose as delivered by needle.

“This patch could offer some exciting ad-

vances in vaccine delivery and might help eliminate the need for needles when giving any vaccination,” he said.

“It could also mean that vaccines no longer need to be refrigerated, making it easier to transport them safely to people in remote locations.

“This would be a major improvement to healthcare around the world. Measles remains a major health problem in low- and middle-income countries, so a successful patch vaccine will likely save thousands of lives every year.”

USC Clinical Trials Director Lucas Litewka said it was exciting to see some of the most innovative advances to vaccine technology coming out of Australia.

USC Clinical Trials is launching a study of a needle-free vaccine delivery technology.

“We hope our community will share our excitement around this, and show their support through participating in the trial,” he said.

The study requires healthy volunteers aged 18-50 years old who are in good general health and have a body mass index within

the range of 18-32.

Participants will be required to visit the USC Clinical Trials clinic at Morayfield approximately seven times over an eight-week period and receive two phone calls.

Exercise cancer away

By Margaret Maccoll So important is exercise not only in preventing cancer but in reducing the risk of its recurrence and enhancing treatment a dedicated area of research, exercise oncology, has been established.

“Fifteen to 20 years ago it didn’t exist,” USC School of Health and Behavioural Sciences professor David Jenkins told guests at U3A Noosa last Friday.

“Twenty years ago doctors told patients to take it easy. Now we know exercise will make it better.”

Scientists know 30 per cent of the development and recurrence of breast and colon cancer can be attributed to lifestyle factors, particularly exercise and diet.

Dr Jenkins said exercise may not reduce the risk of all cancers but did reduce breast and colon cancer risk.

“Exercise will improve your quality of life. By going for a walk your mental health improves.

Quality of life is so important,” he said.

While body fat has long been the focus of research, scientists are now realising the role of muscles and their extraordinary ability to maintain health and fight cancer.

“For a long time the reason was attributed to the loss of body fat from exercise,” he said.

“That might still be true but it doesn’t explain how in a single bout of exercise, chemicals are produced that decrease the growth of cancer.”

When muscles contract they release chemicals called myokines, he said.

“There are up to 300 kinds of myokines released by muscles when you exercise. They im-

prove cognition, fat and glucose metabolism, bone formation, blood vessel function and muscle growth and help prevent dementia.

“In the past five years scientists found tumour growth was reduced by ‘natural killer cells’. These killer cells increase as a direct result of myokines being released by muscles during exercise.”

Dr Jenkins said the myokines are proteins but there’s not a lot people can do with their diet to trigger them.

“The only way to get an increase in killer cells in the blood is to exercise as often as possible,” he said.

However the naturally occurring killer cells that attack the cancer disappear within 1-2 hours of exercising so regular bouts of exercise are more effective.

“We suspect that the type of exercise most likely to elicit the largest myokine production and release in response to exercise involves large muscle groups, of the legs and chest, exercising at a relatively high intensity.”

Dr Jenkins said high intensity, intermittent exercise, such as walking quickly, then recovery, then walking quickly again was most beneficial.

The muscles are also important in maintaining glucose levels. Dr Jenkins said studies done on the problems associated with people sitting for long periods found while people sit their glucose level increases. When they stand the muscles in their legs take glucose out of the blood.

In addition to exercise Dr Jenkins recommends a Mediterranean-style diet, high in proteins and including yoghurt, nuts, fish and olive oil.

Red benches a reminder In a stark and ongoing reminder that domestic and family violence is an unwelcome scourge in our community, Sunshine Coast Council has installed and unveiled four bright red benches across the region.

The Red Bench project is the brainchild of not-for-profit charity the Red Rose Foundation, which started the campaign in the hope that the benches will raise public awareness and provide an opportunity to remind people of the unacceptable presence of domestic and family violence in communities.

Sunshine Coast Council Mayor Mark Jamieson said council had installed four red benches located at Nambour, Alexandra Headland, Caloundra and Maleny.

“Each bench delivers a simple message on a plaque; ‘Change the ending: let’s stop domestic violence,’” Mayor Jamieson said.

“I sincerely hope these benches not only provide comfort for many passers-by, but also spark questions, conversations and reflection to help us to eradicate the occurrence of domestic and family violence.

“There is no room for domestic and family violence in our society.

“It has to stop and every single one of us can take responsibility for our own actions and lead by example.”

Red Rose Foundation Chief Executive Betty Taylor said she was pleased to see Sunshine Coast Council join other local government areas in proudly displaying the red benches.

“Our goal is for every single local government in Australia to have a red bench in their community,” Ms Taylor said.

“Everyone in the community has a responsibility to play a role in raising awareness against domestic and family violence.

“We truly hope these benches make a difference to others, as one death from domestic and family violence is one too many.”

Research conducted by The Salvation Army highlighted that the most vulnerable in our community are struggling to pay for the necessities like housing, food and medications.

The Salvation Army research, as part of its annual Red Shield Appeal, was a result of a national survey of its clients who had reached out for assistance from the organisation.

The research found 93% of those surveyed were experiencing housing stress (paying more than 30% of their household income on housing) and of these, 86% were in extreme housing stress (paying more than 50% of their household income on housing).

With the extreme pressures of housing costs at an unprecedented high, those on government support payments are left with $11 a day, and those on minimum wage only $4 a day, after paying for housing. This has meant that The Salvos have seen a sixfold increase in people on wages presenting to its services for help.

“It is absolutely devastating to see the impact of COVID-19 on the Australian community,” Public Relations Secretary, Queensland, Simon Gregory said.

“The past year has shown us that anyone can find themselves in crisis, and this has manifested in The Salvos seeing people we have never seen before coming to us for support.”

The Queensland portion of the research showed similar results, with 9 in 10 respondents experiencing housing stress and 30% reporting that their housing costs exceeded their income.

66% of respondents from Queensland couldn’t pay gas, electricity or phone bills on time, and 73% said that being able to afford food was one of their greatest challenges.

In Queensland last year, The Salvation Army assisted more than 20,000 people

for emergency relief, offering nearly 31,000 sessions of care to people in need.

The national survey found that during lockdown, 87% of respondents found it difficult to meet the basic needs of housing, food, electricity and health, and post-lockdown the situation remains the same for an overwhelming 73%.

“With housing stress in this country being at such a high, we are seeing more people becoming homeless. Furthermore, in what is a very lucky country, it is shocking to see almost 50% of people skipping meals and more not able to afford medicines. We need to do better, and The Salvos remain committed to standing alongside Australians now and into the future,” Mr Gregory said.

The research also showed 59% of respondents reporting poor mental health during lockdown, with 40% raising concerns about their mental health post-lockdown - this is significantly up from the 23% reporting poor mental health before lockdown.

“The reality is we cannot do what we do without the generous support of the Aussie public. To help us leave no one in need, please consider donating to this year’s Red Shield Appeal,” he said.

Now in its 56th year, The Red Shield Appeal is The Salvos’ flagship fundraising appeal which aims to raise $32 million to fund more than 2,000 centres and services across Australia.

“Community need has been exacerbated

by COVID-19. We are committed to being here for Australian communities for the long term. Your financial support is needed more than ever. Please donate to our Red Shield Appeal and help us leave no one in need,” Mr Gregory said.

Indigenous artists share their connection to country ‘Heal Country’ is this year’s NAIDOC 2021 theme and the name of the annual NAIDOC exhibition at Cooroy Butter Factory Arts Centre’s during June and July this year.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Artists who are connected to or living on Kabi Kabi/ Gubbi Gubbi lands will share their understanding of connection to country and the need to ‘heal country’ through painting, weaving, sculpture, video, poetry, and performance.

Coordinator Alicia Sharples said the Cooroy Butter Factory Arts Centre constantly strives to create a place with a sense of safety belonging and inclusion within the community and allows for First Nations voices to be heard with their regular NAIDOC exhibitions.

“This year we have the generous support of ACCOR hotel group to make this exhibition possible and we are excited to host an incredible array of artists with Elders such as Aunty Hope O’Chin, Aunty Beverly Hand and Uncle Paul Calcott, along with established artists like DR Jandamarra Cadd, James Hurley, Bridgette Chilli Davis and new emerging artists such as Cholena Drew Hughes and Ivy Minniecon,“ Alicia said.

“We are incredibly lucky to again have artworks by Uncle Paul Calcott’s Nuunaron group who are First People’s Disability Network artists.

“Their work will be seen for the first time in this exhibition at Cooroy Butter Factory Arts Centre before their unveiling in the UN headquarters in New York.“ Co-Coordinator and local indigenous artist Melissa Stannard said, “Our connection to country is inherent to our identity, when we walk on country, we come alive as our ancestors watch over us and guide us, they are embodied in our waterways, trees, rocks, plants and animals.“ “It is part of the way we practise, learn, rekindle, and redevelop our creative skills and to listen deeper to ourselves and the land.

“Healing ourselves through healing country leads to healing our nation.

“We need to try to halt and reverse the damage done to our environment, the pollution of land and waterways, destruction of sacred sites and knowledges and to actively heed and engage with Aboriginal knowledge.“ The event will be opening on 19 June from 4 to 6pm at 11A Maple Street Cooroy.

The free exhibition will run from June 18 to July 18. Book online https://www.trybooking.com/BQZGB NAIDOC Event will take place on 4 July from 11am to 1pm.

the community to plan and undertake hazard mitigation activities,” Mr Dawson said.

QFES Acting Commissioner Mike Wassing said work was already underway with partner agencies and stakeholders to ensure recommendations were progressed.

“We are always looking at ways to improve and are working to align action items from the report with work already underway,” Mr Wassing said.

“QFES has seen significant improvements through all phases of bushfire including how we prevent, prepare, respond and recover, and a lot of the recommendations made in this report will build upon learnings and continuous improvement items we conduct year on year.

“This fire was different to most and extremely challenging, but the work of QFES and QPWS staff and volunteers, partner agencies, local tourism and business operators, and the community was incredible.”

Fire and Emergency Services Minister Mark Ryan said it was important after any major emergency to evaluate the response and the IGEM should be commended for this body of work.

“The bushfires last year posed particular challenges given the nature of the terrain and the fact it was on a large sand island with mobile phone and internet blackspots.

“The fire covered nearly 85,000 hectares just over half the island - and 30 different water

bombing aircraft dropped more than 13 million litres of water on the fire.

“Thankfully, there was no loss of human life, and while there was no significant structural damage, there was an impact to the world heritage-listed island’s natural habitat and disruption to the local community, the Butchulla people and the tourists and holiday makers who visit the island.

“Firefighters, volunteers, government personnel, traditional owners and the local community worked together to battle the blaze that continued to burn for a number of weeks.

“The 38 recommendations made in this report will help drive improvements for bushfire prevention, preparedness, response and recovery in the future and I know QFES is already making this work a priority.

“The findings of the report show that, while there are things we can improve on, the foundation is already there - our emergency services and their partner agencies are world class and I commend them for their dedication to service and their professionalism.

“Ensuring the safety of communities will continue to be a priority of the Queensland Government as we work to minimise the social cultural, environmental and economic impacts of disasters in Queensland,” the Minister said.

tions tasked to it and work with other agencies to implement those where QPWS had a supporting role.

“K’gari is a World Heritage-listed area and we know how important this beautiful island is to Queenslanders,” Minister Scanlon said.

“The report demonstrated the collaborative nature of the response - particularly the engagement with the island’s Traditional Owners, the Butchulla people.

“I am pleased to say that the QPWS is already undertaking some of the very important work highlighted in the report.

“More training with a focus on incident command functions will be rolled out as part of our $16 million Enhanced Fire Management Project - and this Project was highlighted in the report as part of a ‘good practice’ case study.”

Minister Scanlon said that after every major incident, it was standard practice to examine the response and identify if anything could have been done differently.

“I thank the IGEM for the opportunity to participate in this important review,” Minister Scanlon said.

“QPWS will always strive for continual improvement and will work closely with QFES, the Butchulla people and the island community to implement the recommendations and look for opportunities to improve how we can work together, learn from each other and keep the people on K’gari safe.”

The Inspector-General Emergency Management (IGEM) Alistair Dawson said one of the IGEM’s critical, ongoing role is to analyse and evaluate the effectiveness of disaster management arrangements in Queensland.

“During the review, the IGEM engaged with the Butchulla Aboriginal Corporation, held a forum with the Butchulla people, conducted five community and business forums and considered 78 written submissions.

“The review team undertook extensive consultation with Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES), the Queensland Police Service (QPS), the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) and the Fraser Coast Regional Council.

“During the review, community members and business owners and operators expressed respect and gratitude to local Queensland Parks and Wildlife Rangers, Butchulla Rangers and local Rural Fire Brigade volunteers for their work.

Noosa’s forgotten village

By Phil Jarratt Guiding his tinnie across the 300-metre stretch of the Noosa River that leads to “Colloy”, the beautiful North Shore riverfront home he shares with partner Natalia, retired international businessman Nick Hluszko points out properties that suddenly people are willing to pay telephone numbers to buy.

“It’s crazy,” he says. “It wasn’t long ago that only a certain kind of person would even consider buying here. The wives considered it a difficult posting.”

Nick, whose significant business credentials – he worked around the world for Mobil and reinvented KFC in Russia – and his love of the river have led him to represent on the Noosa River Stakeholders Committee, first bought North Shore property back in 1984, when it was under threat from developers on several fronts. Digging around on his block opposite the new council chambers, he kept finding rusty pieces of machinery, and a little research revealed that a timber mill had once been there, along with the homes of the mill manager and Noosa Shire’s first chairman, James Duke.

A dozen years later, while working for Mobil in the US, he bought another riverfront shack and boathouse downriver, and when Mobil merged with Exxon, he “took a wheelbarrow to an ATM and came home”. Living in the shack, he started kicking around the property and after discovering boat parts and oil drums in shallow graves, he realised it had been a significant boatbuilding operation, and research revealed it had been the birthplace of early putt-putts for both T-Boats and

Nick Hluszko and his Colloy boat shed.

O-Boats several decades before.

But Nick’s historical research stepped up to a new level when he returned from his Russian stint to retire on the river in 2017. Earlier research had led him to the name Colloy, possibly meaning shark in a Kabi Kabi dialect and once attached to the small run of workers’ cottages either side of the McGhie, Luya and Co timber depot and wharf, but he had no idea that the property on which he was about to build the dream retirement home, was at the epicentre of this forgotten village.

He recalls: “All the stuff about oysters was just starting to happen, and people were talking about the North Shore as a pristine wilderness that had never been built on. As I researched the history of my block, I started photocopying titles of property and discovered this Abraham Luya who had purchased

84 acres of riverfront in 1872 for 21 pounds. Up to the turn of the century this area was pretty much commercial, and then the downturn of the timber industry here when it was pretty much lights off.”

Nick presented his well-researched findings to Noosa Council, where they have recently found a home at the new Heritage Noosa website (heritage.noosa.qld.gov.au), including site plans and extracts from contemporary newspaper reports describing the McGhie, Luya facility and the workers’ village surrounding it.

My own research for a new history of Noosa, Place of Shadows, due in July, found that the timber depot was a bigger operation than lithographs depict, with the company steamer Culgoa transporting some 35,000 feet of timber each trip to Brisbane and making three trips a fortnight. The company had over 150

men at work cutting and loading, which boys’ town aspect might have had something to do with why no pioneer tourists or journalists seemed to visit Colloy.

Certainly the male domain across the water contributed to the wild reputation Tewantin had, as on many nights the streets teemed with men looking for respite from the hard work of the day. Lonely sawyers and wharf labourers would row across from the McGhie, Luya loading docks, looking for relief of one sort or another. After the drunken binges and sexual excesses of Christmas 1872, the authorities increased policing and Tewantin became more civilised, but by the time this was achieved, little Colloy across the river was in rapid decline.

The cottages became fishing shacks and gradually disintegrated from neglect, but as the tourist trade increased after World War II, the early hire boats were built and repaired around what remained of the McGhie, Luya wharf. In his yard and garage at Colloy, Nick Hluszko has many found objects from those years, but his favourite is the old O-Boat puttputt renamed the Kenny Bill, by an old crooner turned fisherman named Kenny Maguire, which Nick bought from the family after Kenny’s death.

Over Kenny’s nameplate is an image of a 1940s microphone, a small hint of a forgotten past, much like what remains of the village of Colloy itself.

Visit heritage.noosa.qld.gov.au to find more about Colloy and other aspects of Noosa’s fascinating history. Place of Shadows, The History of Noosa, will be published by Boolarong Press in July.

An artists journey home

By Ian Pugh Ethan-james Kotiau felt a flutter of nerves as he looked out across the packed auditorium. It was a big occasion - an exhibition at Brisbane’s prestigious Aurecon Building to raise money for the victims of the 2019-20 bushfires. The event had sold out and there were a lot of highprofile people there. It was the first time his art had ever been shown to a large audience - and now one of his paintings was about to go under the hammer. It had already been an incredible journey. Where would it take him next? As the auctioneer stepped up to the podium and unveiled his painting, he knew he was about to find out ...

It had only been a year since his journey as an artist had begun, and yet so much had happened already. To think that one short year ago he had been working as a pest technician, helping to install termite prevention systems with Cooroy Termite & Pest Control. It was not a time he regretted at all. He had met a lot of good people and the work had helped him support his two sisters and pay the bills. But inside, there was something burning which he was finding impossible to ignore. He could only describe it as “a creative fire” and it was burning him up from the inside. He knew he had to deal with it, but he wasn’t sure how.

Music was his first thought. With a longstanding passion for making music, he was already collaborating with musician friends in Brisbane. He ended up moving to the city where he worked hard to try and make inroads into the music industry. It was tough going and there were still bills to be paid. Before long, he found himself working as a cook in a hospital kitchen. But the creative fire raged on. “I felt like I was going mad,” he remembers. “I was getting depressed. I knew I had to do something. I just wasn’t sure what.”

It was around this time that he found himself inside an art gallery, standing in front of a huge painting - a massive statement piece by Ningura Napurrula Gibson. As a member of the Gunggarri people (through his mother), he was used to being around Aboriginal art and culture. He had had a close relationship with his grandmother while growing up on Iningai country in the Longreach area and she had taught him a lot about their land and culture.

But none of this could have prepared him for the impact Ningura’s painting had on him that day. “Looking at this piece, I couldn’t understand why it was making me feel so emotional,” he remembers. “It touched my heart. It was like I could feel the soul of it. I felt like crying.”

When the gallery director came over and explained more about the painting - that it was about women’s business - he was reminded of his grandmother’s stories and his connection with the piece grew even stronger. “It was like seeing a piece of me in the mirror that I hadn’t seen before,” he says. “That’s when I decided I wanted to paint.”

He never went back to his job. Instead, he bought canvasses and started to paint. Looking back, he admits that some of the decisions he made during this period were not the most responsible. It was not an easy path he had chosen - far from it. Without a job, he could no longer afford the rent so he decided to live in his van. “I set up my van and started painting out of it,” he says. “I didn’t want to tell my family, so they didn’t know.”

Things got tougher. Some days he didn’t have much to eat and was forced to take advantage of free coffees from a 7-Eleven promotion. But he was painting and he still felt confident that he was doing the right thing. It was often prayer that gave him the strength to keep going. “I learnt not to be anxious about the next day. Just do what you can today. I learnt to be happy without having much. To appreciate what I did have.”

The next challenge was how to sell his work.

At one stage he tried going door-to-door. It was a daunting experience - a few days of people saying no and doors being closed in his face.

Then a friend suggested that he try and sell through Facebook marketplace. He put some paintings up but had no idea how to price his work. Not a lot was happening until he received a message - some guy asking if he had ever exhibited his work before. He decided to be totally honest. “I told him I’d only been painting for a few months and that I’d never exhibited anything before.” Ethan would never forget the reply he received. “He asked if I wanted to come and meet him at his gallery.”

Ethan-james Kotiau It was an opportunity he knew he couldn’t miss, even though he had only just enough money for a train ticket. (“I had been saving it for a $5 pizza”). He thought about jumping on the train illegally but then remembered that “you reap what you sow”. He bought the ticket and went and met the gallery owner. “The first thing he said to me was that your paintings are amazing but you are selling them for way too cheap!”

It was the start of a new chapter. The gallery owner helped Ethan exhibit his work in a group exhibition. He also gave him a lot of good advice and introduced him to people in the art world. One thing led to another until he found himself at the art auction in the Aurecon Building.

Ethan remembers the night clearly. His painting was one of the last to be auctioned.

“I didn’t know what to expect,” he says. “When the hands started going up, I couldn’t believe it. The price was jumping up in $50 increments. At the end, the crowd erupted. It sold for over $1,000 - one of the highest prices for a painting that night.”

It was a turning point. Doors began to open and he started to meet the right people. He was also commissioned to do a painting which turned out to be a very important piece. For inspiration, he had decided to “take it back home”, back to Iningia, his traditional country. “The painting came out of respect for the place,” he explains. “It was a way to preserve and shed light on the beauty of the country.”

The people who had commissioned the painting “were completely blown away by it.” It became the first in a series and marked the beginning of what has now become his signature style.

Soon, he was earning enough to rent a place. The one thing he had missed while living in his van was a bathroom. “When I ran the hot water for the first time I cried,” he remembers. “I slept on the carpet that night but I was

Ethan-james Kotiau home and I was happy.” He thanked his God and made a promise to always be grateful and to always “give back”.

A few years have passed since then and Ethan is now happily married and working towards his first solo exhibition. He sells his work through his website (www.landrivercreeks. com), as well as in galleries such as Ninbella (www.ninbella.com).He also spends a few days each week on his Christian Ministry work. He is grateful for the gift he has been given and re-

mains determined to give back in any way he can. He is using his art to educate people about aspects of Aboriginal culture and the land. He also wants to use his own story to show others what is possible.

He believes that everyone can overcome challenges if they “open their hearts” and focus on giving rather than receiving. “Anything is possible when you put love into it,” he says.

He’s ready for the next journey and we can’t wait to see where it leads.

Botanic Gardens big day

By Alan Lander Noosa’s own Botanic Gardens will come alive in many ways on Sunday 6 June with a host of activities taking place.

Live music, an avian walk, artistic fun and a visit to a special place are given a colourful backdrop by the gardens’ own late-autumn splendour.

Kicking things off from 8am you can join a guided bird walk with Karl Granzien, who will introduce you to the many and varied avian species inhabiting the gardens.

From 10am, classical sounds will permeate the gardens as the Three Clefs - a Cooroy trio blending a harmonic mix of cell, viola and vio-

lin - will set a soundtrack to a magical Sunday morning.

Meanwhile artist Beatrice Croft invites you to create ‘ephemeral arrangements’ using nature’s own resources - withered or wilting materials from the gardens themselves to create spontaneous and memorable artistic imagery in a unique form to connect you with the moment for the day.

The ‘special place’ is the Shade Garden the inspirational heart of the whole scenery of the gardens - which will be open from 9am to midday, with Friends of the Botanic Gardens members on hand to guide you through and answer any questions you have.

It’s a serene location for a family picnic with

a number of lakeside locations - or sitting at the famous Amphitheatre - to enjoy all that nature offers in the eight-hectare gardens.

Dogs on leashes are also welcome.

And just to ensure you can maintain an inner glow if the weather’s nippy, the Friends have organised a trial of a coffee van at the gardens, with the support of Noosa Council.

The gardens are on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy, with plenty of parking.

Review of basin plan Queenslanders are encouraged to have their say on the review of the Mary Basin water plan which covers parts of the Fraser Coast, Sunshine Coast and Gympie region.

Minister for Water Glenn Butcher said a review of the Mary Basin water plan had commenced with interested parties encouraged to provide early input into the process.

In announcing the review of the Mary Basin water plan, Minister Butcher has postponed the expiry of the current plan until May 2024 to provide sufficient time to undertake extensive consultation and technical assessments.

“This review will take into consideration new information about climate change and the risks and impacts to water allocation and management,” Minister Butcher said.

“The plan review will look into the water needs of iconic threatened species of the plan area including Mary River turtles, Mary River cod and the Australian lungfish to ensure management strategies are developed using the latest science and ecological knowledge.

“Another key focus of the review will be the unallocated water reserves within the basin as we consider future urban, industrial and agricultural needs. These considerations need to be balanced against existing water requirements.

“We’ll be engaging directly with Aboriginal communities across the Mary Basin water plan area to ensure cultural values, aspirations for water allocation and management help inform this review.

“This early stakeholder input will help shape a draft replacement water plan which is expected to be released for further public consultation in late 2022 to ensure a fair and sustainable outcome for all.”

Key documents which implement the plan, including the Water Management Protocol, Resource Operations Licence and Operations Manual, will be amended as necessary during the plan replacement process.

Queensland is divided into 22 water plan areas to balance the needs of water users and the environment at a catchment level. Underpinned by science and community consultation, water plans meet cultural, social, economic and environmental outcomes specific to the catchment.

Saving the wetlands It is with great anticipation that Judith Hoyle will be the guest presenter at NPA’s Friday Forum on 11 June. Judith became an avid birdwatcher in her 20’s and is now the driving force behind the efforts to save Toondah Harbour from development. Of that campaign she says, ‘With the backing of my committee and BirdLife Australia, I morphed into a shorebird activist/conservationist.‘ At the Friday Forum, Judith will present the great news story of the Yandina Creek Wetlands and the ‘Blue Heart’ initiative where Unitywater opened some of the tidal floodgates which transformed a drained floodplain to the Yandina Creek Wetlands, once again teeming with birdlife. Come and learn about the rehabilitation of the site through the ‘Blue Heart’ initiative which is a win-win for the birds and the broader environment.

The forum on June 11th will be at the NPA Environment Centre, 5 Wallace Drive Noosaville, for limited numbers owing to COVID restrictions. To come to the EC, it is essential to pre-register. Entry is $5 by ‘tap & go’ at the door. Go to www.noosaparks.org.au for the registration link.

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

FBI WIN, 9pm

SATURDAY

FAST & FURIOUS 7 NINE, 8.40pm

For fans, this is the final chance to see Paul Walker (pictured left) as Brian O’Conner after the actor was tragically killed in a 2013 car accident during production of the film. Fans of the series will know what to expect: fast cars, hot women, cartoonish bad guys and Vin Diesel (pictured right) getting emotional while swigging a beer on a porch. Need more convincing? Diesel reckons “there is nothing that will ever come close to the power of this thing”. So, yeah.

SATURDAY

AUSTRALIA’S BIGGEST SINGALONG SBS, 8.30pm

Tune in for a singing event like no other: the title of this one-off special sums it up to a tee.

Hosted by Julia Zemiro (Home Delivery, right) and Miranda Tapsell (Love Child), this is a live, twohour extravaganza inviting everyone to flex their vocal chords and get lost in some classic Aussie songs. The Hunters and Collectors’ hit Throw Your Arms Around Me will take centre stage, with the lead singer, Mark Seymour, joining the broadcast at the tail end for a performance. Guided by Pub Choir founder Astrid Jorgensen, this is a unique event that anyone can be involved in from the comfort of their lounge room. Put on your best trackies and prepare to sing your heart out.

SUNDAY

THE MAZE RUNNER 7MATE, 6.30pm

A little bit Hunger Games, a little bit George Orwell’s 1984, The Maze Runner is an exploration of what happens when scared people are dropped into a controlled environment. Thomas (Dylan O’Brien, above) wakes up in a walled world with no memory of how he got there.

The Glade – as the colony of young boys tell him it’s called – houses an ever-changing and dangerous maze. The boys lay out the law and warn him there is no escape.

But where’s the fun in that, hey? There are fight scenes, a love interest (Kaya Scodelario) and an ending that left the sequels wide open for the taking. O’Brien is great as the leading man so expect to see more of him. For younger viewers.

Season three of this serviceable police procedural from Dick Wolf (Law & Order) returns tonight. It has been interesting to see how popular shows deal with the pandemic and whether they address the global catastrophe or pretend it never happened. Shows that have incorporated COVID-19 into their storylines, such as The Resident, have generally received a lukewarm reaction. In a smart move, FBI gives a nod to the medical emergency then gets on with the show. In “Never Trust a Stranger”, nononsense detective Tiffany Wallace (Katherine Renee Turner) joins the crew and Missy Peregrym (left) returns after maternity leave, resuming work as agent Maggie Bell.

Labelling the bottles at Amrita Park Meadery.

Making mead runs in the blood of Andy Coates and Nicola Cleaver at their picturesque property at the foot of Mt Pinbarren, as ERLE LEVEY discovers.

Eat, drink and be merry Sliding doors moments ... the idea of the nearmisses and what-ifs that occur in our lives and how easily it can change the course of life choices and destination for better or for worse.

Seemingly inconsequential moments that nonetheless alter the trajectory of our future events.

When you meet Andy Coates and Nicola Cleaver you think about decisions made on the spur of the moment that in their own ways have led to a great adventure together.

For Andy and Nicola they have both changed careers and followed their passions.

And that has led them to the foot of Mt Pinbarren in the heart of the Noosa hinterland.

Here, on four acres of land, they have not just established a home but created a business that allows them to develop their talents.

Andy comes from a family with a long history of beekeeping and mead making.

After a successful career as an aircraft engineer he has followed his love for all things mead and moved to the Noosa hinterland where he and partner Nicola have created Amrita Park Meadery.

Nicola shares the mead passion and brings a world of experience in flavour profile matching, fermentation knowledge and food science from a distinguished career as a qualified chef.

This experience is further enhanced from her hands-on expertise as a certified orthopaedic cast technician, which gives her the ability to think on her feet and experiment with new techniques.

Last week I was reminded that life’s a matter of perception.

Maybe it was watching The Adventures of Robin Hood on television while growing up - or the later years seeing the Mel Brooke’s comedy Men in Tights - but I had believed that mead was a sweet honey drink enjoyed by bold knights and daring outlaws. Served by fair maidens, they were drinking from tankards, goblets or cow horns around heavy wooden tables.

In a visit to Amrita Park Meadery I was really surprised to find it is a much more delicate drink … one that falls between dry, semi dry and sweet.

There’s even some that sparkle.

The meadery is set among enchanting grounds where the trees, the bushes and the flowers evoke a sense of mystery as well as 28 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 4 June, 2021

It was interesting as people did not know what mead was. It was a matter of finding people who understood the process and the history.” beauty. Especially when the sun begins to slip behind the mountain and the light fog starts to rise.

In the warm surrounds of the Cellar Door we taste some traditional mead and talk about the history of Pomona and Kin Kin. Andy is continuing a family tradition of boutique mead making.

He honed his skill over the years with the watchful eye and plenty of advice from his grandfather Dennis “Poppo” Coates, who loved to visit the meadery right up until he passed away in June 2019.

Mead, from Old English, is created by fermenting honey with water, sometimes with various fruits, spices, grains, or hops.

“It has to be made from honey,’’ Andy said.

“More than 50 percent has to be made from fermentable sugars … honey is your source.

“You cannot have a heap of fruit and add mead. It has to be honey first and then fruit.

“It can be still, carbonated, or naturally sparkling.’’

Mead was produced in ancient history throughout Europe, Africa and Asia, and has played an important role in the mythology of some peoples.

It is widely thought to be one of the oldest alcoholic beverages, with evidence of a drink made of honey, rice, and fruit dating to 7000BC. The original ‘Honey Moone’ started with honey wine. During medieval times mead was part of a marriage ritual that lasted one full moon.

Andy was born in the Hunter Valley in New South Wales but grew up in Central Queensland and following high school became an aircraft engineer after completing his apprenticeship in Rockhampton.

“Poppo” Coates had been making first-class mead and entering competitions in Europe and Australia since the early 1940s.

The family came to Australia from England in 1966 and built a house at Engadine in the Sutherland Shire.

“He was amazed he could be producing honey year-round,’’ Andy said. “Back in England he could only get honey in summer and it was a constant battle to keep bees alive.

“From about 14 he started beekeeping, and had a small community garden. His brother was a beekeeper as well.

“When the war came along he was in the navy. He served in the North Sea for some of that time and conditions could be very rough.

“After that, he was even more determined to proceed with beekeeping. He discovered mead making early on.’’

In Sydney, Poppo worked for Leyland but getting laid off was the best thing he ever wanted as it allowed him to follow his love of bee-keeping.

He wasn’t producing runny honey, he was producing sections … we know it as comb honey.

“Poppo and Nan had built it up to a stage where they were exporting it … just the two of them, from a shed on their house block.

“They used hand-made hives.’’

By watching them as a child, Andy believes he now has mead in the blood.

That provided the first sliding doors moment for him.

“When I started my apprenticeship I was supposed to go and become a beekeeper with him. It was on the same day.

“As a 17-year-old, what do you do … beekeeping or take the chance to travel the world?’’

The field of aeronautics has been a good industry for Andy.

After Rockhampton, he worked up in Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory.

That was on helicopters. They would fly from Yirrkala to the out-stations … west to Borroloola, Roper River, sometimes to Groote Eylandt in the Gulf.

“There were times we would hover over a river and the crocs would jump up at you,’’ he said.

“There are not many places up there I’d go in the water … I’d even check my cuppa before having a drink.’’

Andy knew when it was time to leave the Top End, otherwise he would still be there.

That was “old school Territory’’ … everything was such an adventure, especially after growing up in urban Rockhampton.

He ended up working in Brisbane for Sunstate Airlines which later was taken over by Australian Airlines and then Qantas.

Andy would work night shift much of the time and during that stage got into fermenting.

He started with home-brew beer and then spirits before turning to mead.

There was always some mead around with the family, particularly at Christmas time.

A cupboard in the corner of Amrita Park Meadery is devoted to the legacy of Poppo Coates - his mead making and honey collecting.

Although based in Engadine, he had hundreds of bee hives all around New South Wales and would simply follow the flow of the honey where the trees were flowering.

Andy’s aircraft work took him to Alice Springs, where he was growing grapes and making his own wine.

It was “pretty awful’’ he admits, but it was good experience.

Then there was another stint in Darwin before moving to Cairns.

That’s where another sliding door moment occurred ... he met Nicola.

Born in Scunthorpe, England, Nicola came to Perth in the late 1960s with her mother and two sisters.

Starting her chef’s apprenticeship at 16 at the Kings Park garden restaurant, she went on to work in Hobert, a season at Mt Hotham, in Adelaide, and then Cairns.

That was in the early ’90s and after Palm Cove Resort, Nicola went to work at Cairns Hospital.

That’s where she started training in the plaster room, as an orthopaedic cast technician.

“I put down the knives and picked up the scissors,’’ she said.

Nicola met Andy at a party and days later was going to an appointment. He was standing in a fish and chip shop, talking on the phone.

That’s when she made the decision that would change their lives, by stepping into the shop and reconnecting with him.

They arranged for a lunch and he picked her up on a motorbike.

It was her first time on a bike and the first date turned into a ride up the Gillies Range then - “264 corners later’’ - along the Atherton Tableland to Mt Molloy and Pt Douglas before

returning on the coast road.

“Seven hours later, I passed the test,’’ Nicola said.

“I felt safe at all times.’’

Photos on the wall of the meadery of Andy racing bikes in Darwin, Cairns and the Finke River Race pay testament to his ability. And a couple of bikes in the corner further reveal this other love.

Together, they set off on a Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 to travel around Australia, looking for a business opportunity.

“We were looking for a nice property to create a meadery,’’ Nicola said.

“I was very familiar with Margaret River and the wine growing. Being there gave us inspiration and ideas on how to set it up.

“We needed acreage, a house, a couple of sheds, and something quirky to create the cellar door …a school house, a dairy, a church, something like that.’’

They were not looking for any place in particular, more the region in which to operate.

From Cairns they went across the Top End to Darwin.

They did it in increments, staying in one place for a while then doing the next leg. The whole adventure took 18 months.

At Denmark, in the south of Western Australia, they found a lot of inspiration at The Lake House Winery which promoted other local produce as well as their own.

“It was so different to the big wineries,’’ Nicola said.

“We realised we wanted that cosy, intimate feel.’’

They didn’t see the Pinbarren property on their trip but narrowed down the regions to northern New South Wales and the Sunshine Coast.

That’s when they started hunting. A weekend was booked to see about 10 properties but nothing stood out.

Initially Pinbarren had been disregarded but when they looked again it ticked all of the boxes.

“It had been a photographic business,’’ Nicola said, “so it had a separate building.

“We came back the next weekend and pretty much fell in love with it.

“Four acres, a small cottage ... we wanted to spend time making mead and growing the

business, not housekeeping.

“It has a dam, so we have our own water.

And views of the mountain - that’s the squiggle in our logo.’’

I’m drawn to the Amrita Park logo - the bottom half of the stylised bee takes the shape of a mead drinking vessel, sometimes called a mazer. The initials of the meadery are included, along with the mountain.

The location means it is close to Brisbane, Noosa and Gympie. Not far from the Bruce Highway for grey nomads to discover, and a day out for various clubs and groups.

Being on the Noosa Country Drive is a bonus, along with the support from the others in Slow Food Noosa and Cooloola Farmers Trail.

Setting up the meadery required fermenting barrels and trials to see what brews worked.

“The first we thing needed was honey,’’ Andy said, “and the local beekeepers embraced us … Wilson’s Pocket, Eumundi, Mapleton and the Cooloola Region.

“We did yeast trials and worked out recipes.

It was a long process of meeting licensing regulations and getting council approval.

“It was interesting as people did not know what mead was. It was a matter of finding people who understood the process and the history.

“Once they could see the picture they were happy to get behind us.’’

Andy and Nicola have a few hives on site at Amrita Park but cannot produce the quantity required for all of their mead making.

All of their honey is sourced raw and has not had any heat treatment.

For the past three and a half years they have been developing the different meads … experimenting with different styles and fruit.

Some they had never heard of before, such as japoticava which was growing on the property.

“We researched it and decided to make mead with that,’’ Andy said. “It’s one of our biggest sellers.

“There are different versions of traditional mead due to different honeys.

“Carombola or star fruit is another. It’s super sweet.

“Some people eat it green like a crisp apple, or ripe and like a sweet pear.’’

Other fruits such as persimmons and feijoa are possibilities but Andy and Nicola don’t

want too big a range.

“We want to do five things and do them really well,’’ Nicola said. “It’s quality, not quantity.’’

The Top 5 include ginger and lime, japoticava, citrus and chai spice, plus various styles of their traditional mead.

That’s the backbone of their melomel … fruit meads. But they play around with other things if they are seasonal, such as mango or passionfruit.

The traditional mead recipe involves one third honey, two thirds water then let it ferment about six weeks before being transferred into ageing barrels.

They then rack the mead to leave the sediment at the bottom, then test and adjust it if required before filtering.

“We give it a final filter,’’ Andy said. “Actually it’s a polish as it’s already clear.

“Then it’s ready for bottling and the labels.

“The bottles are from France and we do our own labelling.’’

News of the meadery has started travelling far and wide, with a good response from food groups as well as travellers.

“They are surprised at what mead can be,’’ Andy said, “and pleasantly surprised that it is not sweet and thick.’’

As well as operating the Cellar Door and private visits to the meadery, they take their products to such events as the Abbey Medieval Festival at Caboolture, or the Victory Village at Riverbend, near Tiaro.

In the future, Andy and Nicola are looking to include picnic boxes filled with local produce to go with the tasting paddle of different meads.

They should have a sparkling mead on the shelf by Christmas.

Andy is president of Mead Australia as well as being on the Slow Food Noosa committee to promote local food cultures and traditions.

“It’s not just a business, it’s a passion,’’ he said.

One that started in 1942 when Poppa Coates started entering his produce in the London Honey Show.

“He supported us, taught us his secrets ... he couldn’t have been prouder than when he saw what we had created,’’ Andy said.

Indeed, his spirit is very much alive in everything they do at Amrita Park.

LETTERS NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

River Response In Response to James Hordern of Noosaville’s letter in NT 28 March 2021, - Slow Down in the River Hi James, As a regular user of this river way for the past 16 years, I feel that a response is required.

Granted that marine traffic has increased significantly since the introduction of the 6 kn speed limit during peak holiday season was introduced, and yes weekend traffic is busy on weekends, I do not share your opinion on many points. To use the word “dangerous” is excessive as this, to me, implies a life threatening situation. This is certainly not the case, and yes like on the roads we come across that on rare occasions, however it certainly is not a situation that I have witnessed.

The reason that the larger boats use the main channel is because of their draft and the narrowness of the channel and we owners of the larger craft, and more especially the commercial vessels, certainly know the 30 metre rule and abide by it. I do not speak for the PWC’s. Your “shared areas” analogy is not convincing as the main channel is like a multi lane road (aka autobahn) where slower vessels need, for safety reasons, move to the outer, shallower areas where manoeuvrability is more available rather than in the deeper channel. So why be in the main channel when you don’t really need to be there?

You keep mentioning speed and wash in the same context, however if you understand hulls then you would know that wash is mostly by hull shape. You do note that the ferry can travel at 6 knots without much of a wake, but my deep vee hull produces double the wake at 6 knots than at 20 knots.

Note, I don’t claim to be a marine architect or designer, my understanding (as good/poor as it is) comes from observation of practical situations.

Regarding boat wash and erosion connection in the Noosa River, this has been spouted and refuted many times. In my opinion the erosion at the dog beach and Munna Point is caused primarily because the river is trying to travel to where it’s mouth was originally, before the developers screwed it up.

As to boats hollowing out the channel, now that’s’ a new one and would like to see an hydrologists explanation on that.

If you check with MSQ, you will see that the Mooloolah (not Mooloolaba) and Noosa Rivers are, from a navigational category, completely different and hence require different management techniques. That is why Noosa River is different.

I am all for increased policing on the river as our weekend warriors certainly increase the risk level, and if you see small vessels anchored in these narrow channels, perhaps you could suggest they move as they are causing larger vessels to veer into shallower waters (if they dare).

I would also suggest you have a chat to any of the commercial charter operators regarding time constraints, I’m sure they would be happy to educate you.

I am sharing this with NRSAC however given the people on this committee and their experience, I think that they have come across these issues and thoughts many times.

Majority Rules Rule The Short Term Accommodation is under question. I would like the council to show a list of the noise complaints in relation to short term letting over the last few years. If there are thousands of people letting out a room, garage, granny flat, tiny house, caravan etc for short term accommodation and there is one or two complaints, where is the fairness in this. I get so tired of one person complaining to stop the majority living freely. Why should this one person have the power to stop the enjoyment of many. If there are 40 people having a party or 400 people in the park listening to music or 20 kids playing football on a field - and one person calls the police, why should this one person have the right to stop so many others having fun. (Mind you I am not condoning wild parties til all hours either). I think the one person should go around the neighbourhood and get all the people who are affected to sign a petition if there is a noise or parking problem, and if there are more people affected than the people making the noise, well then we have a democracy and can act upon it.I can see the main reason behind the draconian laws being brought in by the Council is just to protect the resorts from airbnb competition.

This is unfair as most of the profits from these big resorts go elsewhere. The owners in most cases are not permanent residents of Noosa.

The mums and dads who rent out a room will spend this money in the community. If there is a demand for airbnb accommodation then obviously this is the choice of people coming to Noosa for a holiday. Many like to interact with

the local hosts instead of staying in a concrete box.The Noosa Council needs to consider all the tourists coming in and survey what sort of accommodation they prefer. (This is being done by looking at the demand for the airbnb accommodation). Why not spread the income.

Many people who need to earn a little extra (to pay their huge rates bill) rely on the airbnb income. It’s ironic that many people I know volunteer (ie unpaid) their services at places like the Noosa Tourist Information Centre and need to earn a little bit from air bnb to survive. The council will be turning away a huge market of tourists. The council needs to think again before they shoot themselves in the foot.

Let’s encourage all types of accommodation and become known as NOOSA THE AIRBNB CENTRE OF AUSTRALIA. Not all tourists are well healed and want to spend their whole vacation in Hastings St. Let’s encourage all socio economic levels of tourism. Perhaps we should be looking at MORE types of accommodation not less in this current accomodation crisis, as there are many people being pushed out of their rental properties by greedy owners wanting to increase the rent or sell in this boom.

Where are all the waiters and bar staff who work in these restaurants or provide tourism services or work in local shops etc, going to live if there is no affordable accommodation available? Talk to any business owner and they will tell you how hard it is to find people to work in their business because there is no where for them to live. Perhaps the council could subsidize the current airbnbs so that they can have local residents stay in their accommodation.

Perhaps the council should be putting their misdirected energy into providing affordable accommodation before trying to stop accommodation providers.

Fred Brown, Noosa

Local families victims of STS Tsunami Alas, our elected Noosa Councilors have abandoned locals in their duplicit support for commercial Short Term Stay (STS) hostels.

Recent media reports reveal respectable working families cannot find permanent homes to either rent or buy in long established local residential areas.Councils policy bias towards preserving housing for permanent residents is seemingly forgotten. People who live here are denied a permanent roof over their head simply because holidaying visitors can pay more.Mayor Stewart has publicly expressed Councils concern over this crisis, and does not disagree that local families have little chance of getting a house to live in when most available STS rentals are four, five to six times the rate of permanent homes.

Councilors could act to address this crisis now by blocking the Tsunami of STS applications Council is approving. Rather, it seems their empty rhetorical mantra of “protecting residential amenity” continues, as hope Council might take up the challenge in support of local families is lost.

Budget talk in Wide Bay The Federal Budget for 2021-22, handed down on May 11, is one of the most important in the history of our nation, with significant investments to continue the Morrison Government’s work to rebuild our economy, create jobs, and build infrastructure as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Budget contains a record $17.7 billion commitment to improve aged care, which includes an extra 80,000 new home care packages, and I will be working to ensure this funding is used to address the availability and quality of care in Noosa communities and throughout Wide Bay. Along with Assistant Minister for Defence

Andrew Hastie, I recently met with veterans at the Tewantin-Noosa and the Cooroy Pomona RSLs, where we discussed the urgent need for fair pay for Occupational Therapists and allied health professionals who care for veterans. I’m pleased to report that in this Budget the Government has acted with a $61.9 million boost for these services, which will increase the availability and quality of care provided to veterans.

I also welcome $2.3 billion in the Budget for mental health and suicide prevention; $1.1 billion for women’s safety; and an increase of the Child Care Subsidy to for families with more than one child aged five and under.

Around 49,100 taxpayers in Wide Bay will benefit from tax relief of up to $2,745 this year, from the extension of the low and middle income tax offset to 2021-22 and the decision to bring forward Stage 2 of the Government’s tax relief plan - leaving more money in the pockets of local families to spend and further stimulate the economy.

Locally, the Tablelands Road Bridge at Cooran and Wahpunga Lane Bridge at Kin Kin will be completed in 2021-22 with $1,240,949 allocated through the Bridges Renewal; and Noosa Council will receive $1,580,692 through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure program to spend on priority projects.

Cooroy Badminton Hall receives a final payment of $10,000 out of a total $20,000 Australian Government contribution for its newly completed amenities block upgrade, while the final stage of the Rufous Street Masterplan, the fantastic new Peregian Beach Community House, is scheduled to be finished by November with $1,517,500 allocated in the Budget as part of a $2,550,179 investment in the Peregian Beach community from the Australian Government.

If you would like to learn more about the 2021-22 Budget, my Budget newsletter will be arriving in letterboxes at the end of June, or you can contact my office on (07) 4121 2936.

Turning the page on solar The Page family-owned business has been manufacturing furniture for the educational and commercial market since 1919. Zero Emissions Noosa met up with Shane Smith who’s been with Page Furnishers for over 40 years. He arrived on his electric scooter and says no fancy title, just call me spokesperson.

He’s a strong advocate for solar, having a large home system and is proud of his Tesla battery, particularly when there’s power outages and his power stays on giving him that slightly smug feeling when his house is the only one in street with the lights still on. And no more annoying clock resetting.

Page invested in solar back in 2015 with a large 200kW on their two buildings either side of Factory Street in Pomona. It was a natural choice for the business, fitting in with their sustainable ethos. Attention is paid to reducing raw material wastage and they’ve found ways for timber, metalwork and paint shop materials to be re-used and recycled. Solar provides over 40 percent of their electricity needs with the panels oriented east and west to even out generation during the day.

The majority of their electricity bill is based on the maximum 30-minute usage over a month(demand charges), so they have many efficiency measures such as slow ramp up of compressors and fans. They’ve investigated batteries for the factory, but the financial case doesn’t stack up yet.

Shane says they’ve experienced some reliability issues with inverters so have recently

upgraded to top-tier Fronius inverters, so warns not to scrimp on quality. His only grumble is that they can’t export their excess due to Energex restrictions, which he says is a crying shame that generation for two and a half days a week is wasted. Shane says it’s a credit to family owner Alan Page that the business is still innovating and thriving sustainably after 102 years in business.

Sun Powered Pomona The hinterland towns and districts of Federal, Pinbarren and Pomona make up postcode 4568 and are under the spotlight as Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN) continue to track progress towards the goal of zero community emissions for Noosa by 2026.

Local resident and Noosa Councillor Brian Stockwell is feeling pretty impressed with the results by his community of just over 3,500 people and says: “It’s great to see over a half of residential properties in Pomona have solar arrays and a bit over a quarter of business properties likewise. With only 12 percent of our roof space used, the town is already getting 41 percent of its power needs from renewables.

This makes the goal of zero community emissions by 2026 a realistic goal.

“I reckon with the typical friendly rivalry it will be a race to see which hinterland town or village will be first to claim the prize of 100 percent of its power supplies being generated from renewables, at this stage Cooran is in the lead with 46 percent.”

The postcode has installed over 4,000 kW

Page Furnishers at Pomona solar installation. of solar, which if laid end to end would stretch for 25 km. Pomona is also home to the largest industrial solar installation in the Noosa Shire with the 200kW system at Page Furnishers. All this solar means that the community in the postcode is averting over 5,000 tonnes of CO2 which otherwise would have been emitted by coal-fired power stations.

Pomona ia also home to another councillor,

Pictures: SUPPLIED Karen Finzel. She’s equally enthusiastic and says: “A big shout out to all those who are in the race towards reducing emissions! Pomona Hinterland Village is home to like-minded individuals who are focussed on working locally as a community to help achieve our goal of zero emissions by 2026. Together we strengthen communities.” Next time we’ll look at Cooran - postcode 4569.

Tucker With Trevor Restaurant Review

Peregian vision realised Trevor Pepys reviews Periwinkle Restaurant, Peregian Beach.

Although these days Trev doesn’t normally go as far as Peregian on his holidays, the little beach village on the outskirts of the shire will always have a place in his heart, mainly because he helped create it.

It’s a long story, but in the interests of all those ungrateful sods out there in reader-land – the ones who whine, why doesn’t he cut to the chase and tell us about the bloody meal! – I’ll keep it brief.

Back in the early ‘60s when living in a Parisian garret and writing unpublished novels had lost its gloss, young Trev washed up in Noosa and took the only job he could find, digging the foundations for the Peregian swimming pool. Since this involved hard physical labour and being yelled at by a brainless foreman in a crash hat and a navy blue singlet, it was always going to end in tears.

After copping another volley of abuse one day, Trev climbed out of the growing trench and confronted his torturer. “Look, mate,” he said, “building a stupid pool here when you’ve got a whole ocean just over there is a big mistake and I can have nothing further to do with it. If it was up to me, this whole area would become a beautiful garden, the centerpiece of a village square where people could sit outside cafes and fancy restaurants and admire it all while they ate and drank. That’s my vision, for what it’s worth.”

Well, it turned out to be worth ten bob in a TM Burke envelope and a don’t come Monday, but these visionary thoughts came thumping back like a roll cloud coming off the sea just the other night as Trev and the missus sat at an outdoor table, looking across the square where once was a pool, while surveying the menu at Periwinkle.

On a mid-week off-season night in late autumn, this tastefully done French-owned establishment offering the tastes of the Med using locally grown products had a healthy crowd of mixed locals and tourists already at table, and was as good as full before we left, so they must be doing something right. Our friendly waitperson Scotty looked after us with a bottle of La Ginestra Pinot Grigio ($52), a light and aromatic wine from the Friuli area north of Venice. A little outside Trev’s comfort zone on price, but seeing his vision fulfilled was worthy of a splurge.

We elected to keep it simple: the blue cheese offering off the tarte flambe menu ($17.50) and a crab souffle ($19) to start, followed by a shared moules frites ($32).

While Trev is quite fond of the French variant on the humble pizza, the blue cheese seemed like a strange choice by the missus, featuring a combo of gorgonzola, potatoes, crème fraiche and walnuts, but the flavours and textures seemed made for each other,

TM Burke executives discuss Trev’s termination.

Blue cheese taste flambe. complemented by the tasty, slightly crunchy base. And the crab souffle of twice-cooked spanner crab in a creamy seafood bisque just melted in the mouth.

Off to a great start, we then hoed into a mas-

Moules frites. sive bowl of steamed black mussels mariniere in parsley and cream, with an equally massive side of pommes frites. We were in Peregian but we might have been in St Tropez.

The verdict: Comfortable, classy, friendly, and

Well that’s the end of autumn and with May behind us let’s hope the next few months turn it on weather wise. There weren’t that many opportunities the last month for the offshore anglers. We had a few great weekends but the swell and persistent strong winds really prevailed. This really highlights the need to become adaptive and maybe try different styles of angling in different locations. We are blessed to have so many on offer from inland dams to lakes, estuaries and offshore. Maybe look at surf fishing for big jewfish which will soon be here?

With offshore pretty much on hold this past week only a few charter boats made the run over the bar. The bigger conditions kept a lot of smaller boats grounded as did the winds. Out wider North reef held the usual species with a noticeable change. With the mackerel almost gone the focus is all about snapper, pearl perch, jewfish and in closer on Sunshine coral trout and sweetlip. As the focus switches to snapper over the coming weeks/months many anglers will be thinking of alternate methods to target them. Nothing beats the action of a well presented soft plastic on lighter braided lines. The Powerbait Nemesis in pink glitter colour has been a consistent performer since its release. It is a great entry level option if new to this style of fishing as it has inbuilt swimming action.

Away from the swells the estuary will also see a change with big bream coming into focus. These bigger fish are already preparing to spawn. If you do catch the big 40cm+ fish it is best returned as they are in excess of 30 years old. These fish are the healthiest and strongest and will pass on their genes thus keeping the next generation strong. A great way to target these bigger fish is to use the hidden weight jigheads and smaller 2 inch grubs. Cast these on 4-6lb leader and let them slowly drift downward in the current. This natural presentation usually sees the bigger fish smash them and on light 1-2Kg rods provides some great action. To make unhooking easier try squashing the barbs on your hooks. If you bust off the fish has more chance of throwing the hook and if deeply hooked it is so much easier to remove it.

Smaller flathead around 50cm are starting to school up in the lower estuary and with the cleaner water small jewfish are also on the move. Small soft vibes and hard bodies on the troll have picked up some great fish. Try the run from the Woods Bays toward the Noosa Marina for some great trolling ground. Look at the many lure options we carry from 5080mm in size with a wide range of dive depths to suit your speed and line strength. Jewies love vibration and the Keitech easy shiner in 3 and 4 inch are the perfect profile with great inbuilt scent sure to attract them. You can try to find these fish beyond the ski zone toward the deeper holes between the lakes. If targeting these fish keep leaders no greater than 12lb as this helps to keep presentation at its best.

Away from the estuary the bass will certainly be schooling up following the cold snap this week. Now is the time to break out vibes, spinnerbaits and jigs. Last week I mentioned the use of the Ecogear ZX blade, especially for yellowbelly. If you are looking for another option try the new Berkley pro tech 60mm vibe. At 18 grams it will certainly get down and stay down when worked. This makes targeting schools of fish that are close to the bottom easier. Don’t forget from the start of June the wild Australian bass closure comes into effect. This makes them a no target species in the Noosa Everglades as this is a tidal area.

Now for all the latest information log onto www.fishingnoosa.com.au for up to date bar and fishing reports, don’t forget to drop into Tackle World Noosa, Noosa Boating and Outdoors and Northshore Bait & Tackle in Marcoola for all the right equipment, bait and advice to get you catching.

Gymnasts excel The Cooroy Gymnastics Club has once again proven that you can still win through hard work and determination at this year’s Australian Gymnastics Championships on the Gold Coast.

The small community club has produced five individual medals including three National Championships plus team silver at the event.

Cooroy had three athletes selected for the level 9 squad: Dean Chandler, Lyam Chandler and Finlay Jones with Cooroy senior mens coach Greg Smyth named team coach.

Finlay and Dean have two previous National Championships under their belt but it was Lyam’s first selection at this level. Greg has proved to be the steadying hand bringing 40 years of experience at Nationals as a competitor, coach and judge.

The first day of competition is the team event with scores also added to the final all around awards.

The Queensland team struggled to post their usual scores due to the added pressure of high level competition and the absence of events during 2020.

Only one gymnast managed a clean routine

Finlay Jones working the Pommel. without a fall on pommel and failure to post good scores on this apparatus cost the team a gold medal.

Queensland finished with silver just 1.5 behind a deserving New South Wales.

Going into day two Finlay was the highest ranked Queenslander running third in the all around event just behind the two competitors from NSW. With an eye still on the all around event it was the day to focus on the six individual apparatus.

Fin was not able to get back all of the points from the two NSW competitors but did manage to hold on for a third place all around.

The Queensland team was able to win four

Finlay fought hard to win 3 National Championships with gold on pommel, rings and parallel bars. Brothers Dean and Lyam finished 3rd and 4th on vault with Dean winning his first individual medal at the Australian Championships.

These wins are even more amazing as the club does not have a full vault area or competition rings canopy making preparations for the event challenging.

Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club to celebrate 100 Years In 2022 one of Australia’s most iconic Surf Clubs, Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club will celebrate 100 years of community service.

A commemorative logo has been designed, and planning is well underway to make the centenary season at Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club its biggest ever.

A host of exciting celebrations for locals, visitors, members and former members will run over the Lifesaving season, starting on the 19th November 2022 and finishing in July 2023.

MSLSC is calling on locals, past and present, to get involved with the Surf Clubs’ centenary, with the launch of the Mooloolaba Surf Life Saving Club specific 100 years Facebook group.

Members of the public can join the centenary group, check out the iconic images, and share their own. The 100 years Facebook group already has a library of historical images and film footage from the past 100 years.

Iconic images include Prince Charles visiting Mooloolaba, the original clubhouse in 1933 and the Buderim to Mooloolaba road from 1918. It is a fascinating insight into the life of Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club and the local Sunshine Coast Community as a whole.

The 100 years committee would like anyone who has had an association with Mooloolaba to share their photos and memories of Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club and Mooloolaba township past and present.

They could be an Active Member, former Nipper, been rescued or competed at Mooloolaba or just love this beautiful place we call home.

Some images may be selected to feature in the Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club 100-year book to commemorate this auspicious occasion.

The page will build awareness and inform the local community of the exciting 100-year celebration events.

Chairman of The Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club 100 Year Committee, Alan Murray, said “Mooloolaba Surf Life Saving Club will be 100 years old on 19th November 2022.“ “To celebrate this milestone, a Centenary committee is organising a series of activities over the 22/23 lifesaving season.

“As a permanent reminder of Mooloolaba’s 100-year history, a centenary book will be produced, complemented by a pictorial representation of lifesaving at Mooloolaba over the decades, to be showcased in the foyer of The Surf Club, Mooloolaba.

“A re-enactment of beach patrols and surf sports will be demonstrated on the beach to coincide with the first patrol at Mooloolaba in early 1923. Concluding the celebrations, there will be a gala dinner in July 2023.“ The Mooloolaba Surf Lifesaving Club’s 100 Year History book will be one of the Club’s Centenary celebrations’ centerpieces. It will provide a tangible record of all the years that have gone before. It will showcase a rich histo42 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 4 June, 2021

MSLSC President Darryl Johnson said, “What an exciting time for Mooloolaba SLSC and every member of our community who has been involved with the Club.“ “Mooloolaba is one of the most recognisable beaches and towns in Australia and to have our club patrol our beach and support our community for a century is something to celebrate.“ For information, visit the Facebook page on Mooloolaba SLSC 100 Years @MooloolabaSurfLifeSavingClub or click the link on the homepage of MSLSC https://www.mooloolabaslsc.com.au/

Storm to tackle Titans in Bokarina The Melbourne Storm will relocate its June 5 NRL clash with the Gold Coast Titans to Sunshine Coast Stadium due to the growing COVID-19 outbreak in Melbourne.

Tickets for the Round 13 match are on sale now through ticketek.com.au. Ticket prices range from $20 to $85 and family packages are available.

The seating configuration will be designated seating in the Grandstand and Try Zones and picnic style seating on the grass mounds (picnic rugs or cushions, no chairs).

Sunshine Coast Council Mayor Mark Jamieson said council was delighted to be able to provide our Sunshine Coast Stadium to the Melbourne Storm again at such short notice.

“We certainly feel for the people of Victoria and hope the Storm can soon return to their family and friends,” Mayor Jamieson said.

“In the meantime, we will take good care of them, as we did last year, and I encourage everyone to get their tickets and see the reigning premiers in action next Saturday.

“It will be a big day of rugby league action on the Sunshine Coast with the Sunshine Coast Falcons and Redcliffe Dolphins competing for the James Ackerman Cup, the curtain raiser to this Melbourne Storm v Gold Coast Titans game.

“I’d like to thank all the staff at council and Melbourne Storm who have been working very hard in the past 24 hours to make this game possible.”

The Storm has been based on the Sunshine Coast since May 14 for a mid-season camp and was due to return to Melbourne following last night’s (27/5/21) round 12 NRL clash with the Brisbane Broncos at Suncorp Stadium.

The Sunshine Coast became a home away from home for the Storm in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the club playing (and winning) six of its regular season matches at Sunshine Coast Stadium en route to winning last year’s NRL premiership.

Noosa sport stars receive a boost Twenty-four of Noosa’s sports stars will receive grants to help them participate in state and national competitions.

Federal Member for Wide Bay and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Llew O’Brien has congratulated the recipients, as he said, “Sports are an integral part of life in Wide Bay, and I am pleased that our outstanding young sportsmen and women are receiving this support through the Local Sporting Champions program to represent our region.“ “Wide Bay’s sporting champions participate in a diverse range of sports, they come from every community, and these grants help them meet the costs of competing in state and national championships which can be quite high where long-distance travel and accommodation is required.

“This funding will help to ease that pressure

on local families, and help our young athletes participate fully and achieve their sporting goals.”

The following young sportsmen and women will each receive a grant of $550 or $650, to the total value of $13,700, through the Liberal and Nationals Government’s Local Sporting Champions grants program which supports participants aged 12 to 18 to help meet the costs of participating in sporting events, including travel, equipment, uniforms and accommodation.

Lola Gibbs-Beal from Noosaville and James Hangad from Noosa Heads received grants to help them compete in Surf Lifesaving at the Queensland State Youth Championships.

Samara Dryden from Peregian Beach will be playing golf in the Queensland School Sport State Championships, while Teagan McGowan from Tewantin will be swimming at the 2021

Age swimming championships.

Other Noosa sport stars who received a helping hand include Oscar Rechtin, Kilian Carrel and Harper Smales.

“Sports are an integral part of life in Wide Bay and our region has a strong track record in producing skilled and successful sports champions, so I am pleased to help these 24 young sports stars represent our region with support through the Local Sporting Champions program,” Mr O’Brien said.

“There are always many applications for the Local Sporting Champions Program and only limited grants are available, but I am really impressed by the depth of talent, the level of commitment, and the ambition and pursuit of excellence, that the applicants demonstrated despite the ongoing uncertainty and challenges posed by COVID-19.”

Old marvel Gratham Just a week after claiming the Sunshine Coast Hickory Classic, Cooroy’s old marvel Gratham Leatherbarrow showed he was just as proficient with regular clubs when he won the club’s par competition on Saturday.

Gratham scored plus two – shooting four under par for his second nine around the tricky Cooroy circuit – to win on a countback.

“It was a strange round,” he said. “I had a couple of three-putts early, played poorly for the first nine, then really well on the back nine.”

His score equated to a round of 72 and gave the 73-year-old the satisfaction of again beating his age – shooting a score lower than the number of birthdays he’s celebrated.

Gratham puts his outstanding recent form to a change in the way he addresses the ball – “I’ve taken my right foot back a few inches which makes me swing squarely through the ball” – and keeping fit.

“I try to exercise regularly and I’ve got my own rowing machine,” he said. “And I follow Gene Sarazen’s advice to practice each day with a weighted club – just a few swings at a time to work on tempo.”

And, of course, he believes playing regularly with hickory clubs has improved his overall golf game.

“They’re more difficult to hit,” he said.

“Playing with hickory clubs, as I do most Tuesdays, teaches me to watch the ball and swing with rhythm.”

Girl power gets job done for Noosa Springs Noosa Springs’ all-girl team of Jasmine Lena and the Moore sisters, Sunday and Coco, scored a crushing 3-0 win over Caloundra on Sunday to join the lead in the Blue Conference of this year’s Sunshine Coast junior pennant competition.

Sunday Moore, a seven-handicapper, beat Caloundra’s No 1 player Miles Romagnoli 4&3, Jasmine Lena scored a 3&2 win over Zac Doolan, while little Coco Moore easily beat Sam Cavanagh 5&4.

After three matches their Noosa Springs 1 team heads the standings alongside Maroochy River 3, both teams recording two wins and a loss.

In the Red Conference, Noosa Springs 2 – comprising Caitlyn Wheatley, James McCulloch and Josh Bell – was beaten 2-1 by Headland, Caitlyn winning her match 2&1.

Both Noosa Golf Club teams had a bye.

Junior competition continues next Sunday at Cooroy, while Round 5 matches on June 13 have been switched from Tin Can Bay to Maroochy River.Lifetime dream comes true for Brad Burns A year after being denied a chance to play in the US Senior PGA Championship because of COVID-19, Yandina Creek’s Brad Burns this week joined some of golf’s greatest names in Oklahoma for the Champions Tour’s second major of the year.

A three-time winner of the PGA of Australia’s Professionals Championship (2003-2005), Burns has topped Australia’s Legends Tour Order of Merit for the past four seasons.

One of the country’s most prolific competitors, Burns’ 2019 Order of Merit win earned him a place in the 2020 Senior PGA, only for the pandemic to force its cancellation 12 months ago.

“I’d already paid for the accommodation and the airfares,” Burns said at the time.

In fact it was almost a case of dejà vu for the popular Sunshine Coaster, who in 2017 had earned a spot in the $2 million Insperity Invitational in Texas, only to be denied two months out from the tournament due to a late change in the qualifying criteria.

Money invested in flights and accommodation was again lost.

But fortune was on his side this year, and Burns lined up in the big event at Southern Hills Country Club alongside PGA Tour winner Matt Gogel and US club professional Jeff Schmid.

44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 4 June, 2021

Girl power – the successful Noosa Springs 1 team of Sunday Moore, Coco Moore and Jasmine Lena.

But that, unfortunately, is where Burns’ luck ran out.

He shot rounds of 80 and 79 to miss the 36hole cut – as did former major winners Tom Kite, Todd Hamilton, Corey Pavin and John Daly.

The event was won by German Alex Cejka, while the best of the Australians was Victorian Stephen Leaney, tied in 11th place.

Cooroy golfers hope appeal succeeds Cooroy Golf Club officials are hopeful of the success of developer GemLife’s appeal against Noosa Council’s decision to reject an application to build a $120 million retirement resort on part of the club’s land.

They see the proposal as guaranteeing the long-term future of the club. As part of the deal, GemLife had agreed to build a new clubhouse, pro shop, storage for 40 golf carts and a new sealed carpark, improve the course and pay for 246 new golf memberships for a period of 10 years.

Councillors, however, rejected the application, citing environmental concerns and maintaining it did not fully comply with the Noosa Town Plan.

GenLife has lodged a Notice of Appeal with the Planning and Environment Court. It is likely the process will take about a year to run its course.

Don’t miss Noosa Springs Ladies Series Registrations are now open for the second round of Noosa Springs’ Ladies Golf Series, which will be played on Tuesday, July 6.

The stableford event, which draws competitors from throughout southeast Queensland, will be followed by a gourmet lunch, complete with a glass of sparkling wine.

Those who play in two of the three scheduled Ladies Golf Series will go into a draw to win a half day Spa Escape, plus four rounds of golf at Noosa Springs. The prize will be drawn after the final round in December.

The cost is $104 ($39 for Noosa Springs members). Call the Golf Shop on 5440 3325 for more details or to register.

Superintendent seeks greener pastures Popular Cooroy greens superintendent Todd McNamee, who has transformed the hinterland course since he moved from Coral Cove three years ago, has announced his resignation and will leave the club in mid-June.

He will be taking up the position of greens superintendent at Mt Coolum.

And, while he will be sorely missed at Cooroy, his friends there have wished him the best in his new role.

While a replacement is sought, assistant Brendan O’Brien will be taking on the extra duties of supervising the greens staff. The club has also appointed a new green-keeping apprentice, Ayden Hampton.

Never get ahead of yourself TAKE THE TIP

By Hamish Robertson Expectations can affect us at different times - on and off the golf course. An example of this was when I had a big 72hole tournament over a two-day weekend, called the Whanganui Open.

I was a teenager at the time playing off about a two handicap. I was expecting to shoot a couple of 72s on day 1 to put me in contention. But at day’s end I had shot 83, 81.

Nothing went right. I was puzzled and thought it just couldn’t get any worse.

After waking up fresh with a new attitude, my goal for the second day was to relax and just play golf without getting ahead of myself. This resulted in scores of 71 and 70.

Looking back, I had made the tournament too big in my mind and forgot about the process.

Moving ahead as a professional, the key thought I have is to simply play the shot in front of me and nothing more.

If you can learn to handle your expectations you will have every chance to turn your practise into great golf.

Good golfing.

Our local sport roundup It was in October of last year that the Noosa Pickleball Club hosted its first Noosa Doubles Pickleball Classic. According to a Noosa executive, “The enrolment for this year was four times as many as last year.” Founded January 27 2020, the club now has 133 members playing in the Noosa area: all indications are, that this tournament will become an annual event.

This years’ Classic which was played on Saturday, was hosted at the Noosa Leisure Centre, by the Noosa Pickle Ball club, and 126 players, with skill levels from Australian Champions to rookies, with just a few months experience were registered. The enrolment figures for this tournament, shows that the sport, of which someone once said was, ‘’The newest game throughout the world (but one) you never ever heard of ” is indeed, in our community, consolidated, and going very strong.

With players travelling from Hervey Bay, Brisbane, Gold and Sunshine Coast areas, (and others from Melbourne rejected because of Covid) plus a very busy competition calendar, the sport is definitely in a healthy situation.

Also, it is now estimated, that there are 40 venues throughout Queensland where the sport is being played.

Once looked upon as a game only for the older group, it was good to see players from the much younger age groups on the court. It was stated by a very happy official that “a youth of 9 years has, (for the first time ever)along with his mother, been entered for the tournament.”

It is a known fact, for a new sport to survive, a busy competition program is essential. This is exactly what is now available for the months ahead: health regulations permitting. June 19-20, Brisbane River Classic, September 21, Brisbane Doubles Championships, October 1-4, Australian Championships and November 6/7/8 Pan Pacific Masters, Currumbin, Gold Coast.

For club President Woody Dass it was indeed a very successful tournament. “I was extremely pleased with the efficient way in which the tournament was run. I would like to thank all who worked and I am happy to say, that all our visitors with pleased with the outcome. However, the most pleasing aspect was the high standard of play: it may have been the highest of any town in the country. Some of the matches were really something.”

Winners of the major events were as follows. Mixed Open (Advanced)- Sarah Burr and Martin Clark: Mixed 50 (Advanced) -Vicki Crawford and Randal Hunt: Mixed 50 (Intermediate) -Carolyn Bates and Peter Deacon: Mixed Under 50 (Intermediate), Robin Hungerford and Ryan Gunthorpe: Women’s (Advanced), Glenice Ault and Debbi Rossi: Women’s (Intermediate) Ev Allan and Gail Aiken: Men’s (Advanced) Brendan Lee and Taylor Smith: Men’s( Intermediate) Peter Eustace and Rohan Carroll.

“Congratulations to the winners and well done to all who attended. Also, a very big thanks to the many Noosa businesses who provided prizes for the raffle.” For those of you who are interested to learn Pickleball,(and don’t get the idea that it is just for the oldies) go along to the Noosa Leisure Centre, Thursdays 6-8pm, or Sunday Mornings: check the Noosa Leisure Centre website for times.

For the Ray White Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union Club, last weekend was an away game which saw all four teams travel to Caloundra.

For Noosa, they came home having won three out of their four matches. Good solid Rugby saw the Dolphins come out the victors in the Colts, Women’s and Reserve Grades. However, for the big one, the A Grade, it was not Noosa’s day and on the final whistle the score stood at 27-17 for Caloundra.

Noosa got away to a good start when, following a good line-out driving maul, in the first five minutes, Jock Hanson barged over for a try.

However, Caloundra fought back and at half time the score stood at 17-17.After the break Caloundra took the lead with a converted try which saw them at 24-17. This was followed by a penalty to Caloundra, which saw them

Noosa Pickleball Club president Woody Dass. grab a 27-17 lead. Despite Noosa pushing hard to get back into the contest, their ill-discipline at the ruck and breakdown left them unable to make up the difference: the final score saw them still on 10 points down.

Despite this being Noosa’s first loss in this seasons’ competition, the coach Matt Buckland had encouraging words for his team in the post- match briefing. He emphasised the fact that he was really happy with the teams’ commitment and drive: happy with their defence and stated that they just needed to finish off on some of their attacking moves. Next week will see the Dolphins at home to Caboolture, so this will be a good opportunity for the local supporters to get behind their teams. We can rest assured, that our local lads will be going out strong to make emends for the Caloundra result.

And still it goes on. The dedicated coaches and athletes of our community, they never seem to stop. Last Friday evening in Brisbane, the Owner and Head Coach, of the Impact(Amateur) Boxing Academy, Mark Evans, was re-elected unopposed as President of Boxing Queensland for yet another two- year term. This will be his third term in office.

With the Academy now training in its ultra- modern gymnasium, situated in Taylor Court Cooroy,( now under the banner of the

Picture: ROB MACCOLL Impact Boxing and Fitness Centre) membership increase has been massive. Despite this, and again serving as Queensland President, he still however, continues his volunteer work in various schools: teaching the youth the basics of boxing and fitness. This program, which is held in the highest regard, has now been running for several years. We wish this coach and his team all the very best.

For head coach of Noosa Little Athletics Mick Hooper, things are looking good. “At present in Queensland, all indications are that our annual major event, the Noosa Gift, which we hold in November, will go ahead.

Now despite the winter months being our off season, a group of twenty of our top athletes are turning up for a few training sessions.

This is a good sign for next season as we find that when this occurs, the group will quickly increase when the new season commences. Also, during the winter months, school squads are usually still training.”

With the Noosa Gift now being well established, once the date is publicly announced, entries come from not only all over Queensland, but also over the border. With the event still six months away, it is hoped that border restrictions will no longer present a problem.

Noosa Dolphins Will Clift, Jock Hanson, Ben Rogers, Will Christie and Captain Nick Calvin.

If surfboards could talk When old surfers gather it’s inevitable that sooner rather than later the conversation will turn to surfboards, particularly if there are a few around so that you can get yourself in the mood by fondling rails and eyeing off rocker.

I’ve been doing a lot more of this than usual recently, hanging out with the new Noosa Surf Museum’s Keith Grisman and with television researchers looking for authentic period boards for a new ABC series. And inevitably, somewhere along the line, maybe when the beers are being passed around, some one will say, “If only these boards could talk.”

Well, they can’t, but every surfer has a few stories to tell about the magic board that could do no wrong, or maybe the dog that wouldn’t turn.

My favourite magic board story was told to me by Hawaiian surfer Jeff Hakman, one of the greatest surfers of the early pro era and a friend for nearly 50 years. It goes like this: During the preliminary heats of the 1974 Duke Kahanamoku Invitational, held in 12foot waves at Sunset Beach, Hawaii, Jeff loaned a board to his friend Australian champion Paul Neilsen, who was having all kinds of equipment problems but Jeff assured him, “This board is special.” Indeed it was. Neilsen caught two spectacular waves before wiping out on a third that was equally spectacular. The board drifted into the savage rip and, pushed along by a strong offshore wind, disappeared out to sea. That was the end of that Magic Board.

Like most surfers of the modern era, Jeff owned literally hundreds of boards during his competitive career, but the 7-foot 11-inch Dick Brewer pintail he called the Magic Board was the best of them all. He had to fight to own it, and when he finally sold it, he had to lease it back.

The story dates back to Christmas 1972 after a split between surfer and shaper over Brewer’s long waiting time for custom orders.

On Christmas Eve Brewer sealed the reunion 46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 4 June, 2021

Ben Aipa on an early sting. by presenting Jeff with a nine-six Sunset gun.

Jeff loved it, but on one big day he traded boards with another surfer who was riding a much shorter Brewer gun. He swung around for his first wave and made the drop perfectly.

After a few waves he paddled over to the guy and said, “I have to have it.”

But there were complications. It actually belonged to shaper Jack Reeves, who refused to sell it. Jeff told Brewer his problem and the legendary shaper promised to make him an identical board. But it didn’t have the magic.

Eventually, Jeff persuaded Brewer to make Reeves an offer he couldn’t refuse – two boards for one – and Reeves took the bait. The board was Hakman’s.

He rode it for two years, but somehow the gloss wore off, and Jeff sold it to a surfer named Joey Smoot, and started riding boards from new North Shore shaper Tom Parrish. But something was lacking. Before the start of the

Picture: EOS contest season, he went cap in hand to Smoot, who was smarter than he looked. He wouldn’t sell but agreed to lease it back for a percentage of Jeff’s prize money. It was a clever move.

Jeff rode it to second place in the Smirnoff Pro, third in the Duke and fourth in the Pipe Masters, before winning the season ending Hang Ten Pro in perfect big Sunset.

In these pre-leash times, the Magic Board was looking a little worse for wear, so Jeff left it behind for the Australian and Indonesian winter, but pulled it out again for the North Shore season at the end of 1974. Then the Magic Board was lost at sea. Jeff told me he never had another board as good, but he and Neilsen have remained friends.

My American colleague Matt Warshaw, who was a good pro tour competitor back in the day, but not quite a star, has a thing about the Stinger design, or “sting” as creator Ben Aipa originally named it. During its brief heyday,

the stinger was the fastest, quickest-turning small-wave machine around until the late ‘70s when Mark Richards’ twin fin usurped it.

Aipa’s design went from hero to zero in about six weeks.

Hawaii’s Larry Bertlemann was the undisputed master of the stinger, but on a magic board, every dog has its day, as Matt wrote: “My heat against Larry Bertlemann in the 1977 Katin Pro-Am - I was riding a stinger, Larry wasn’t. This board was a marvel, it lifted my game from the minute I set foot on it, lots of twang off the bottom, sharp off the top, so much speed through the sections, and I beat Larry Bertlemann! In the crappiest Southern California winter storm surf imaginable, victory at sea, the north-to-south current running along the beach like the Rio Grande.

“Larry drifted 300 yards up the beach trying to paddle out while I spun around and rode two near-shore closeouts, while also drifting south, then got out and ran back directly in front of the judging stand, paddled out and wowed ’em with another foamy closeout, took the win while Larry ended up scoreless. Look it up!”

My own magic board was a beautiful little yellow and black swallowtail that Australian surfer/shaper Terry Fitzgerald gave me after winning the 1980 Om Bali Pro on it. It lived in Bali for the next several years and allowed me some waves on the Bukit peninsula that were way above my pay grade. And then it died.

But my more recent magic board experience was also on an Aipa Stinger, albeit a monster version. When I was having equipment problems at Cloudbreak in Fiji, a Californian surfer with the unlikely name of Peff Eick loaned me the super stinger, all nine feet four of slide and glide. Riding it over the next two days of beautiful swell at that legendary break was like putting your board on auto-pilot. I was deeply in love with that board, but, like Jack Reeves, Peff wouldn’t sell it.

NOOSA AFC TIGER TALK 202103085735_1-SG12-21

Big weekend for Tigers

By Julian Pitts It was the yearly celebration of the Sir Doug Nicholls round where we all acknowledge our Indigenous roots and didn’t Dessy Tippa and Dylan Godwin, along with an Elder show us what the day means to them.

Just a terrific way to start what was a pretty big day at our Roccoco Oval.

Of course the winless Tigers hosted QAFL heavyweights and to this point the unbeaten Broadbeach Cats whilst it was Ladies Day in the clubrooms and the heads of Noosa brewery were at it again on our beer lawn, just to up the ante.

In fact a very strong crowd-watched Broadbeach completely dominated the undermanned Tigers who were without names like Meredith, Buntain, Fitzpatrick and Stack to run away with a near 20 goal victory.

One thing I will say from a supporters view, never once did the Noosa boys not attempt to make a tackle, chase or help out a team mate which was just fantastic and a credit to the leadership of coach Bovalino and skipper Laskey, who once again was the Tigers best, racking up 31 touches in the midfield and giving his heart the entire day.

Young Will Odwyer booted 4 goals to continue his good run of recent form whilst teenager Shadeau Brain and defender Ben Guthrie were again amongst the best in the substantial loss.

Broadbeach coach Craig O’Brien said after the game: “Look we knew Noosa were undermanned and have been for a few weeks now.

We’ve lost one game in a year and a half and

Tigers play the Broadbeach Cats at Rococo Oval. when we needed to put the foot on the throttle we did just that. I know how proud Noosa is as a club and I’ve been on the end of some horrible defeats but just stick with Bova and his assistants and I’m sure it will turn around quickly”.

A massive congrats to youngster Cooper Ogden who made his senior debut and whilst a pretty daunting opposition, seemed to handle the transition with ease.

That’s six boys already from the Colts this year who have made their senior debuts so the future is looking bright.

Socially the Ladies Day looked like a roaring success with plenty of positive feedback coming regarding guest speaker Vanessa Mitchell.

Always a great day!

The seconds were gallant but went down by some 30 odd points whilst the Coolum Noosa Colts were outstanding in their comprehensive victory over Broady in a game under lights and in front of a sizeable crowd.

Great to have heaps of the senior group out their at their quarter time and 3/4 time huddled and again in the rooms singing the song.

Culture not lost at Noosa!

Our women had the bye but return this Saturday against Pine Rivers in Brisbane whilst our senior men’s teams travel down to Redlands to face the Victoria Point sharks.

A big congrats also to Noosa under 15 girl Jada Delaney for being selected in the Queensland team. Just a superb effort!

Good luck to all teams representing Noosa on the weekend and don’t forget our 50th year celebrations on Saturday 26 June at the clubrooms where teams of the deacade (70s,80s,90s,00s,10s) will be announced along with many other acknowledgements.

One not to be missed!

Players held the Torres Strait Island and Aboriginal flag during the ceremony. An acknowledgement of country is a way that all people can show respect and awareness for Aboriginal culture.

The club paid their respects to elder Tais Muckan, and additional elders, past, present and emerging; for they hold the memories, traditions, culture and hopes for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across the nation.

The club also acknowledged the traditional custodians of the land on which we were gathered upon. Two indigenous players were also involved in the ceremony, Des Tippa from Garden Point Melville Island and the Mullet and Sun Mob, and Dylan Godwin from Perth and the Noongar People.

Des played the didgeridoo to rounding applause to round out the ceremony. A fantastic celebration of indigenous culture, that was respected and enjoyed by all.

CHANGING MINDS, CHANGING PLACES PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY WE are seeing a change of intension from buyers. They are no longer simply looking for a place to holiday at or rent out until they move here.

Instead they are wanting a place to live in for all or a good part of the year. And many are prepared to work from home.

Clint Powe of McGrath Noosa said this shift in attitude has been exacerbated by Covid-19.

It’s also a matter of technology catching up to being able to work from locations we want, Clint said. Not just for holidays but semi-permanent living.

“This is a good, sustainable trend for Noosa.

“It’s no longer discretionary buyers, so that if the economy changes they tend to sell.

“Instead, they can live here rather than abandon it ... they are investing in Noosa.’’

big winner as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.

People are happy with the infrastructure that’s available - the airport, the hospitals, the schools, the shopping and services.

There’s the feeling of freedom and fresh air yet still with all the facilities.

LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE How often do we see people with similar backgrounds being attracted to similar properties?

That was the case at the three-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse apartment at 5/20 James St, Noosaville, on Saturday when Jason Wedge and Matt Powe of McGrath Noosa took the property to auction.

With three registered bidders and Marcus Muir calling the event, the splitlevel apartment with roof terrace sold for $2.5m.

All registered bidders were from interstate, and the ultimate prize went to people from Victoria ... from the same

property in Noosa, and a consistently high level of interest, there was high prior interest in apartment 49 Culgoa Point.

When auctioneer Gordon Macdonald asked for an opening bid, four cards were raised immediately and simultaneously with four different bids called.

Tom Offermann and Gordon agreed they had never witnessed such an explosive start to an auction, likening it to the start of the Melbourne Cup. The excitement continued with gusto until the hammer fell at $1.405m.

The buyer had such fond memories of Noosa Heads ever since her 1962 honeymoon, she vowed one day a property by the water would be hers.

Not surprisingly, the Robyn Reid-listed apartment 3 Azzure Villas a small complex at 5 James St, Noosaville, with river views and proximity to Gympie Terrace, aroused much attention from potential residents and investors both locally and interstate.

region as the sellers.

Designed by Paul Clout, the apartment was timeless. In a block of five, it had lift access.

The appeal was the close proximity to Gympie Terrace yet being in a quiet location.

THEY’RE OFF It was like the start of the Melbourne Cup when father and daughter Luke and Lauren Chen took the two-bedroom, two-bathroom riverfront apartment 49/5 Quamby Pl, Noosa Heads, to auction.

The Culgoa Point apartment attracted 10 registered bidders and auctioneer Gordon Macdonald had barely finished inviting bidding when he was swamped with calls of $950, $1.0m and $1.10m.

It signalled another outstanding auction weekend for Tom Offermann Real Estate with all five properties sold, bringing the total clearance rate to 91% for May. With cashed-up buyers from interstate, Brisbane and locally scrambling to secure

Other interest was from interstate and local.

“We’re dealing with more locals than we have in a long time,’’ Kate said. “They are selling so have to buy … they are not leaving Noosa.

“Once, they would have moved after they sold.

“Now, they like living here so they are just moving … the market is strong enough.’’

The other change Kate has noticed is she is dealing with much younger buyers now.

They are moving up and working from here.

PRIZE HOME APPEAL It looks like a prize home, such has been the care and attention paid to the fourbedroom, three-bathroom house with pool on 0.79ha at 29 Meadow Ct, Doonan, that’s set for auction at 11am on Saturday, June 5.

Kess Prior and Graham Smith of Hinternoosa are marketing the property that has been with the present owners for three years.

They are upsizing to a larger property in the area and have extensively renovated Meadow Ct over the past 12 months.

“We’ve been smashed with inquiry,’’ Kess said, “mainly from along the eastern seaboard.

“Everywhere really, people have been ringing saying we’ve got their dream home.

“It’s not just the location but 3m ceilings, a real fireplace, several living areas, a barn door to the kitchen … it’s filled with character.’’

On a level block, the single-level house offers views to the golf course yet is still very private.

There is a country homestead feel with two formal lounges, media room, and dining. All bedrooms are double size.

It would suit anyone who loves entertaining, has a large or extended family, or has ever dreamed of living on a graceful acreage estate.

POSITION, POTENTIAL The early bird catches the worm and that will be the case Saturday when Kess Prior and Graham Smith take the three-bedroom, one-bathroom creek-front house on 728sq m at 155 Lake Weyba Dve, Noosaville, to

auction at 9am.

“It’s all about the location,’’ Graham said. “It’s whisper quiet on a no-through road.

“There is the option to renovate or rebuild. There are concept drawings by architect Tim Ditchfield.

“We are getting a lot of local inquiry here.’’

PICTURE-PERFECT OUTLOOK Roger Omdahl at Laguna Real Estate has an inviting Noosa Heads apartment set for auction this month.

The three-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment at 4/35 Picture Point Cres, is one of four in the complex.

On the first floor and on one level, it has some of the best views in Noosa especially from the rooftop terrace.

The views extend to the Noosa North Shore and the beach, the river and waterways.

You get that from the balcony as well.

Roger had 16 groups at the first open house and people looking to make offers.

That number has grown to 52 with most interest from the local area, South east Queensland, Melbourne, and the New South Wales north coast.

There were nine registered bidders and an audience of more than 40 watching the action until declared sold at $1.41m.

The Lauren Chen-listed apartment 3 Sunset Cove at 10 Robert St, Noosaville, was sold post-auction.

An entry level two-bedroom, twobathroom apartment 26 Culgoa Point at 5 Quamby Pl, Noosa Heads, listed by Luke Chen and Lauren Chen sold three weeks before the auction for $810,000.

NATURAL ATTRACTION Spoonbill ... it’s one of “the’’ streets in Peregian. Not beachside but well regarded, with the roadway split by treed parkland to create a welcoming feel to the precinct.

Roark Walsh of Tom Offermann Real Estate saw strong interest in the fourbedroom Bark Architects-designed house at 47 Spoonbill St for the Saturday afternoon auction - especially from families wanting to be close to the beach and the Noosa National Park.

There were seven registered bidders and more than 60 attendees in the natural ampitheatre of lawn, decks and living areas.

Auctioneer Gordon Macdonald saw a start of $1.85m and strong bidding, with a variety of game-plans used.

It was the starter who won out, returning ex-pats securing the property under the hammer for $2.625m.

DOUBLE SUCCESS Reed & Co’s Kate Cox sold both the properties at Noosa Heads under the hammer when she took them to auction this month.

The three-bedroom, three-bathroom house at 24 Sarah Ct sold for $1,850,000.

It went to a local buyer who had just sold in Noosa Waters.

They were downsizing basically, Kate said. The other bidders were from Brisbane.

Interest was from Brisbane and local for the whole campaign. The single-level home in a gated community was impeccably renovated and maintained.

The three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with pool at 26 David St sold at auction for $1,565,000.

The buyers have property in Brisbane but bought to live in as they work here and intend moving.

STAND ALONE DUPLEX RIGHT AT THE CENTRE A NOTICEABLE tightening of the Noosa residential market, has led to house hunters needing to look at alternative styles of living to live in their desired suburbs. For some, an apartment in a big and busy complex just wouldn’t make for a happy home - but a sundrenched, stand alone duplex with its own pool off your living room just one street back from the Noosa River, might just be the answer.

Follow the sun everywhere from inside your home. Warming north-eastern light floods the living areas, master suite, upstairs balcony and library/3rd bedroom throughout mid morning. In the afternoons, filtered western sun trickles in through the courtyards palms, lighting up the kitchen through the servery window. The plunge pool and lap lane hugs the living area, giving an open, resort villa sense of relaxation from anywhere in the living room.

Perched on a corner block of leafy Ann Street, this residence is perfect for those who want peace and tranquility at home, but still love to be a part of social buzz of Noosaville.

Thomas Street, Gympie Terrace and the Noosa Village shopping centre are all within walking distance of the front door, so close that the current owners commented on how rarely they use the car. ●

ON THE COVER

LIVING BY THE BEACH AMONGST THE BEST IN SUNSHINE PICTURE the quintessential statement beach house which reflects its location near the seaside as well as the Noosa National Park, in a much-revered quiet street at Sunshine Beach.

Bespoke entry doors disappear divulging design excellence. Practicality, calmness, an affinity for neutrals and an absolute feel-good ambience, underpin the totally chic aesthetic. Natural light, via an oh-so high ceiling, saturates the massive living space with its wood-burning fireplace, and is augmented by picture windows and salty breeze-attracting louvres on the eastern side. Majestic views of the ocean and the beach are clearly visible, similarly from the massive front terrace which seems to hover over the ridge, and where the short pathway to the sand can also be seen.

Numerous expansive spaces indoors are of varying scale and mood, but nothing beats the unimpeded connections from the dining area with its designer timber table, to the great outdoors. It looks like a photo shoot from Belle magazine revolving around living and loving the good life alfresco.

Courtyards open to the sky and a pearlescent-shimmering pale aqua pool with sandstone water feature, palms, and clipped hedges, takes centre stage.

Casual dining is de rigueur undercover, as are breakfast or drinks when the kitchen windows slide back and open wide to reveal a long bar.

The classy kitchen has everything highend one would expect from a residence of this calibre from stone bench tops, appliances and a walk-in pantry to louvres which take in another aspect of the garden.

Two of the six bedrooms are on this level. One near the front entrance is currently used as an office and both share an interconnecting bathroom.

Upstairs is next level. The living/media space with sand-hued Euro oak flooring, is also used for recreational activities such as billiards, and has sensational views over the Coral Sea and along the southern part of Sunshine Beach.

It is also a bliss zone extraordinaire.

The mega master suite has views over the garden from bed and from the free-standing oval tub in the over-generous ensuite, soak up the views to Mooloolaba and Point

Arkwright. There is no denying the walkin robe/dressing room is a fashionista’s dream come true.

All three bedrooms are large and have ensuites, plus the one with the northerly aspect over the pool, has stupendous milky-white Venetian plaster walls.

“There’s simply nothing like living at Sunshine Beach in a private location less than a minute to the beach,” enthuse Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Eric Seetoo and Rebekah Offermann, who have slated the property for auction on Saturday, 12 June, 2021.

“The moment you walk into this superb light bright residence, you get the feeling you are on holidays. It is casual, relaxed, and certainly not precious. Hear the mellifluous sounds of waves breaking onshore, spot whales and dolphins during the season, enjoy the amenable sub-tropical climate, also being so close to vibrant Sunshine Beach village with its award-winning eateries. No wonder Sunshine Beach is officially recognised as the second most popular suburb in Australia.”

PEPPER YOUR LIFESTYLE WITH AN INVESTMENT WHAT’S not to love about a sure-fire investment near Noosa Main Beach, especially when you have only dipped a toe in at the shallow end?

Embracing its position, seemingly perched amongst the rainforest trees of the Noosa National Park, where koalas call home and the chorus of native birdlife is a sheer delight, is a one-bedroom ultra-chic apartment with easterly filtered garden views, in the year-round popular Peppers Noosa Resort and Villas.

Open the front door, look down the hallway, feel the salty breeze, automatically unwind, and appreciate the absolute serenity in the generous open-plan living area. It opens seamlessly thanks to ‘disappearing’ sliders, out to the generous balcony with feature sliding louvres. It really is the perfect spot for breakfast, or how about a night cap accompanied by the relaxing sound of the creek babbling through the valley, before retiring to the master suite.

The neutral palette including floor tiles, carpet, contemporary furnishings, and art works reflect the great outdoors, and the galley-style kitchen has every accoutrement necessary for guests to entertain friends.

That is of course when they are not relaxing on Main Beach warming up after a swim in the azure waters, walking through the Noosa National Park, or lunching on the beachfront.

There is also much to do around the 5-star resort, which is within cooee of Hastings Street or just a buggy ride away.

Set unobtrusively into the hillside, the internationally acclaimed Peppers Noosa Resort, cleverly designed by the renowned architect John Mainwaring, defines Noosa naturally.

Adding to the overall appeal is the immensely popular restaurant View by Matt Golinski, a nationally known and celebrated chef. The lagoon pool is heated, and massages are a must, at the multi awardwinning Stephanie’s Day Spa. “Yes paradise, where the climate is idyllic year-round and the natural assets are innumerable, awaits a sage investor,” explains Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Chris Miller. “As I have experienced firsthand, apartments in Peppers Noosa Resort are coveted and that’s understandable.

Holiday bookings are year-round and mostly back-to-back. One-bedroom apartments are highly prized because they provide the perfect opportunity for the first-time buyer as well as the seasoned investor who understands the buoyancy of the Noosa market.

“Location too is paramount. Hastings Street, only 300m away, is simply brimming with designer fashion boutiques and street side alfresco cafes, plus there is the

Noosa Heads Surf Club and the sheltered north-facing Main Beach. Along the coastal boardwalk is the pristine 477ha Noosa National Park, a big boon to joggers, walkers, nature lovers and of course surfers, who are attracted to the worldfamous Surfing Reserve. Just up from the resort’s main entrance is Laguna Lookout with its stunning sunsets and breathtaking views across the ocean to the Glasshouse Mountains.”

GLORIOUS BEACHFRONT DOUBLE SITE IMAGINE designing a one-off showstopping masterpiece on a 1174m2 double block, just a few footsteps from the glistening white sand in the much-coveted exclusive hotspot of Sunshine Beach. Yes, it is absolute beachfront and has a dress circle address.

It’s impossible not to be impressed by this exceptional setting with its knockout mesmerising views from the headland of the Noosa National Park, sweeping north-easterly across Sunshine Beach and the Coral Sea, 180 degrees south to Mooloolaba. There are Hinterland panoramas and the popular cafes, bars and boutiques of vibrant Sunshine Beach village are in proximity.

This is arguably a one-off smashing (yes, literally) opportunity of a lifetime, which will inspire innovative and evocative architecture from those who understand it is a privilege to be in the front row at Sunshine Beach. Arakoon Crescent is a moment stroll to the Surf Club, cafes and the local boutiques.

“The three record sales in Sunshine Beach from $15m to $18m strongly underpin the market,“ enthuses Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo, who’s looking for expressions of interest.

“We’re confident a new record will be achieved soon.

“Opportunities to acquire two allotments side-by-side from the same owner on the beachfront may never arise again, so this really is a unique opportunity to build the most amazing beach house.

“The Noosa real estate market has matured to a level where money just cannot buy so many of these treasured properties.

For example, try to buy an apartment at Little Cove’s First Point. Not possible.

Affluent buyers are now demanding larger sites in more exclusive locations.

Most recently four transactions on single residential block were negotiated in excess of $10m. ●

PROPERTY NEWS

A DECADE OF SERVICE TO NOOSA DISTRICT WYTHES Real Estate are thrilled to celebrate 10 years of service and dedication to the communities in the Noosa hinterland.

Director and principal Sirah Robb said the celebrations this year had been a wonderful occasion.

“It was so rewarding to be able to watch a special 10-year video with everyone to take a walk down memory lane and relive some of the special moments at Wythes.

“We are so grateful to the Noosa hinterland community, our amazing clients and our incredible team for their contributions over the past 10 years.

“We would not be where we are today without the unwavering support we have received. This celebration is really about thanking all our supporters in helping us reach this major milestone.”

Since Wythes was founded, they have become a leading boutique real estate agency covering sales and property management across the Noosa hinterland.

Founded by mother and daughter duo, Trisha and Alisa Wythes, the agency operated from an office in Cooroy.

Alisa highlights how they “focused on treating others how you would want to be treated yourself.”

At the end of 2017 local husband and wife team, John and Sirah Robb, purchased Wythes and have grown the business from a team of nine to 16 and added a second office in Doonan.

They have continued to evolve and innovate the business, which has led to Wythes having an outstanding reputation within the local community and broader real estate industry.

In this time the Wythes team has been recognised as winners, finalists and nominees in some of the most prestigious real estate and business awards in the Sunshine Coast, Queensland and Australia.

Sirah and John attribute this to their team’s dedication, hard work and commitment to their vision of continually raising the bar to achieve the best results for their clients, community and the business.

Birthday celebrations were combined with the official opening of the inaugural Noosa Hinterland Property Expo, an event founded by Sirah Robb that looks set to become a regular occurrence off the back of the success of its first year.

“This initiative was a great way for our team and other businesses to connect with clients and the community and the perfect platform to showcase all our region has to offer,” Sirah said.

“The 10-year journey has seen the business go from strength to strength.

“We do what we do because we are passionate not only about property but also about people and we feel privileged to be in a position to help such a variety of people and see a diverse range of properties. The journey has been fun and rewarding.’’

On lessons learnt over this time, Sirah notes they have learnt to evolve and keep ahead of the curve.

The Wythes Real Estate team at the Doonan office ... 10 years of service to the Noosa hinterland.

“We’ve done this by embracing technology and leveraging off it to complement the personal interactions we have with our clients and elevate their experience with us.

“We’ve also never stopped learning.

We provide an environment that allows our team to be the very best they can be personally and professionally.

“We’ve also learnt the importance of a very positive team culture, the fulfilment that is gained from being able to contribute to your community and it’s become abundantly clear we live in the best place on the planet.”

Describing how Wythes have dealt with change over the last 10 years, Sirah adds, “We have embraced change and the opportunities it can bring.

“We understand the need for change when you want to be the leaders in any industry and dynamic in the way you operate.

“We have learnt how to manage change effectively with our team in order to assist with transitions that are beneficial for everyone.

“From business acquisitions to new technology and everything that has happened in between, we have found that change is positive and we are all better off for it.”

And the future? “Our focus for this year and beyond will always be to keep elevating our service, be seen as the best real estate agency in the area and remain at the forefront of our industry.

“We will also be building on the strong connection we have with our community and further advocating for our incredible hinterland region,” Sirah said. ●

HOME FOCUS

GABRIEL POOLE BEACH HOUSE THIS architecturally designed beach house is instantly recognisable as the work of the critically acclaimed, Gabriel Poole. His unique approach to architecture is about integrating the home into the surrounding environment and ensuring a light footprint.

Here at Wavecrest Drive he designed a generational beach home that captures the essence of its seaside location.

Tucked away down a long driveway, nestled into the reserve, lies the private beach house seemingly floating in the air and set on a large 1080sqm allotment.

The home captures stunning ocean views and fronts onto the greenery of the neighboring park and reserve with a nearby path to the beach in sight. This is your seaside escape where you can grab your swimsuit and head to the beach for a paddle or kitesurf and finish of your day with a walk on the dog-friendly beach of Castaways Beach, all only 200m away.

As you enter the home, an enclosed stairwell features a wall of angled glass

to draw in light from the North to the main living area of the home. The open plan living, and dining area features a modern kitchen with stone benchtops and a wooden top breakfast bar all looking out the gas strut servery window which opens onto the covered entertaining deck. Classic Poole features include built in banquette daybed, timber ventilation panels, sash windows and fixed glass lining curved roofs which all frame the surrounding environs and ocean.

A highlight of the home is the overscale bathroom with a stunning stand-alone bath overlooking, through a picture window, the green vegetation. Through the bathing room you step out into the large timber slatted open air shower, perfect to wash off after a day at the beach. The main bedroom opens out onto a private balcony with beautiful sea views. Both the main and second bedrooms, set on the Eastern elevation, have floor-to-ceiling built-in cupboards.

This soulful coastal home lives and

breathes the coastal lifestyle. This home is low maintenance making it the perfect lock-up and leave beach house, plus it possesses plenty of scope to expand if one desires. ●

SOME INTERESTING STATISTICS THE REAL THING OLIVIER MILLER PRINCIPAL LAGUNA REAL ESTATE 0419 472 071

HERE at Laguna Real Estate, we have access to realestate.com data that gives us insight into some interesting statistics which allows us to get an overview on how our suburbs are performing here in Noosa which I would like to share with you today.

Noosaville, Queensland 4566 Currently Noosaville has 12 properties available for rent and 64 properties for sale. Median property prices over the last year ranged from $1,290,100 for houses and $600,000 for units. If you are looking for an investment property, houses in Noosaville rent out on average for $750 PW and have an annual rental yield of 3.0% whilst units rent on average for $500 PW with a rental yield of 4.3%. Based on five years of sales, Noosaville has seen a compound growth rate of 9.5% for houses

and 6.8% for units.

Noosa Heads, Queensland 4567 Noosa Heads has 8 properties currently available for rent and 65 properties for sale. Median property prices over the last year ranged from $1,337,500 for houses and $1,013,000 for units.

If you are looking for an investment property, consider houses in Noosa Heads which has an average rent of $770 PW and an annual rental yield of 3.0% whilst units rent out on average for $580 PW and have an annual rental yield of 3.0%. Based on five years of sales, Noosa Heads has seen a compound growth rate of 11.3% for houses and 9.7% for units.
