Holiday in Noosa By Margaret Maccoll Spring is a great time to be in Noosa. School holidays are here again and there’s plenty to do whether it’s just relaxing and enjoying the beach, hitting the trails or exploring the restaurants, galleries and hinterland. According to Tourism Noosa, bookings across the region are sitting at about 60 per cent for the school holidays and, while we are missing our Victorian and New South Wales visitors, Queenslanders are making last minute bookings to take advantage of the beautiful spring weather. Tourism Noosa members are being given a helping hand with business and marketing in these times of changing restrictions, thanks to a new tourism statistics portal, Noosa Travel Insights. “The portal has been designed with three different categories of data - accommodation, mobility and flight searches,” Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson said. “The accommodation data provides an insight into future bookings and is benchmarked against occupancy levels in 2019 and 2020. It looks at bookings for the entire Noosa region, bookings for separate villages and bookings compared with competitor destinations. “This gives us great information about how our visitor market is going and helps business operators and owners know where and when improvements can be made, if needed.”

Sacking turmoil By Phil Jarratt

12497020-DL22-21

Noosa Council’s executive team and staff are in turmoil following the sacking of long-serving director of corporate services Michael Shave last Friday.

According to Noosa Today’s exclusive sources, who declined to be named, the highly respected Mr Shave, who was acting chief executive officer as recently as July while chief executive officer Brett de Chastel took holidays, was abruptly escorted from the Pelican

Street chambers following his termination after almost eight years of working alongside Mr de Chastel, including the difficult period of reinvigorating Council after deamalgamation. Mr Shave’s departure comes just a few weeks before Brett de Chastel’s retirement

(with the new chief executive officer still to be decided) and following a run of high-powered staff exits in what some insiders are describing as the “toxic environment” at Pelican Street. Continued page 4

It’s school holidays and there’s no better time than spring to enjoy all Noosa has to offer. Next month activities include Noosa Open Studios and the Noosa Trail. So it’s a great time to explore the hinterland, the galleries or just relax at the beach. And if you’re hiking outdoors keep an eye out for the wildlife. Next Thursday is Save the Koala Day. While their numbers are diminishing, The Australian Koala Foundation (AKF) has an aim to help prevent their extinction by pushing for legislation to protect their habitat, their trees. The AKF now has the precise list of trees covering the entire geographic range of the koala. With the Koala Protection Act, it would argue that if those particular trees are present, then the answer to an application for development would be NO. That is, unless there was proof that the applicants actions would be benign to the landscape. With determination and persistence it is possible for a dedicated group of individuals to change the law. Last week the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill was introduced to Queensland Parliament. Noosa nurse Fiona Jacobs advocated for the legislation, collected signatures on petitions for four years and has now welcomed the new law, hoping it will bring peace of mind to people with a terminal illness and their families.

Food event outsourced By Abbey Cannan The board of Tourism Noosa has made the decision to no longer deliver the popular Noosa Eat and Drink Festival. It is looking to outsource the delivery of the festival in the future to an event operator through an expression of interest process. Tourism Noosa’s role in Noosa Eat and Drink will be as a key event partner. Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson said the decision was due to the inherit financial risk during the Covid pandemic. “We are a small organisation and the risk to gain ratio is challenging at all angles,” Ms Anderson said. “Even though it is a phenomenal event and very successful, just the risk to run it for us is too high. “But that’s not to say it’s not a great opportunity for another organisation that does this

sort of work regularly to take it on and run it as part of their program. “We’re keen to see the festival continue in Noosa because it is such a popular festival. We’re just looking for that perfect partner to undertake the risk in running it. “We’ll be supportive of marketing and assisting and making sure the brand is the look and feel of Noosa. We just won’t be taking on the financial risk.” Marketing food tourism to continue to support industry will remain a key focus for Tourism Noosa during these uncertain times. More details will be shared about this in the coming months.

Noosa medical teams thanked for great vax results By Abbey Cannan Noosa’s frontline medical staff have played a key role in keeping the community protected during the Covid pandemic, with recently released data proving their strong efforts. The data released by Queensland Health on 5 September shows Noosa is among the top three in Queensland with strong Covid vaccination rates. The shire is the third most protected local government area in Queensland with 60.8 per cent of the population aged 15 and up having at least one jab. Nearly 39 per cent are fully vaccinated. Noosaville 7 Day Medical Centre practice manager Louise Faleono said the past 18 months had been exceptionally busy for all of her staff, having delivered more than 7000 vaccinations. “They have worked very hard to deliver vaccinations to our community,” she said. “They are very proud of the part they have played during this pandemic being able to deliver thousands of vaccinations supporting our local community. “I would love to take this opportunity to thank my entire team for working extremely hard while upholding quality patient care.” The practice employed additional admin and nursing staff to cover the high demand during the pandemic.

Nurse praises VAD Bill By Margaret Maccoll Four years after Noosa registered nurse Fiona Jacobs began advocating for Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD), the Queensland Government last week passed a VAD Bill she believes to be the best in the country. “It all began with mum’s death in December four years ago,“ Fiona said. “She had a rugged time for 12 days before she died.“ Fiona felt it unfair and unnecessary for anyone to endure a long and painful death in the 21st century and, when she began advocating with nurses supporting VAD, only Victoria had passed legislation. A lot of MPs wanted to know what nurses felt about assisted dying so Fiona was able to work with the Queensland Law Reform Commission to convey a perspective from the nurses’ point of view. She has worked with other VAD advocate groups in Queensland and assisted in legislation formation in Western Australia and Tasmania. The Queensland Parliament last week passed the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill 2021 with 61 in favour, including Noosa MP Sandy Bolton, and 30 opposed. The Bill sets out a legal process for people who are suffering and dying from an advanced and progressive, life-limiting condition the right to choose the timing and circumstances

VAD advocate Fiona Jacobs of their death, but will not be available until 1 January 2023 when the law comes into place. Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk paid tribute to members of Parliament for the dignified manner in which the Bill was debated and the historic conscience vote that enabled it to pass.

“This is a deeply personal matter and we have heard the moving stories that prompted Members to vote in the way they have,” the Premier said. “We got to this point after years of consultation with the people of this state and expert advice. “It was not rushed. “Queenslanders will now have a choice that I know many families wish they had.” Attorney-General Shannon Fentiman said passage of the legislation made Queensland the fifth Australian state to make voluntary assisted dying legal. “It follows extensive work and consultation by two Parliamentary inquiries and a yearlong inquiry by the independent Queensland Law Reform Commission (QLRC),“ she said. Fiona was in the Speaker’s Gallery in Parliament for the final day of debate and the vote. After expecting amendments be sought to the Bill, she was pleased when it was supported in whole. Fiona said the Queensland legislation stood apart from the rest of Australia for a couple of reasons. Under Queensland law, institutions such as nursing homes that do not agree with VAD will not be able to prevent their residents from accessing it. In addition, registered nurses and nurse practitioners will be able to administer

the drug which will be particularly important in remote areas of the state where doctors are not always available, she said. “It’s an excellent Bill,“ she said. “It’s very considered and cognisant of both sides of the fence. It’s going to provide a lot of peace of mind. A lot of people don’t use it but it makes them feel in control. They can get on with their lives without worrying what their end of life will look like.“ Fiona said the consideration of the legislation also put palliative care and its shortfalls in Queensland in the spotlight and the government has also announced a funding boost in the area by $171 million over five years. Health Minister Yvette D’Arth said Queensland Health would be putting in place the complex clinical and administrative arrangement for the scheme’s implementation over the next 15 months. “This includes establishing the Voluntary Assisted Dying Review Board, a Statewide Care Navigator Service, Statewide Pharmacy Service, support systems for access by regional and remote communities and developing training, supporting guidelines and processes,” she said. “Additional engagement with stakeholder groups including medical professionals, First Nations and multicultural groups will be essential to guiding some of this work.”

Noosa Council turmoil in wake of Shave departure From page 1 Phrases like “thrown under the bus” have been heard in the corridors, following a long period over which staff have felt underpaid and under-valued while working harder than ever. Some say recent perceived “blunders” like the STA rates hike and the handling of the Coastal Hazards Adaptation Plan have resulted in staffers facing the wrath of the public when it should be the councillors whose vote caused the problem. Noosa Today was told: “The feeling is that council makes a decision that’s not popular and the councillors, and even the CEO back away and point the finger at a staffer. It’s a perfect storm of negativity being met by staff bewilderment.” But another view from inside the tent is that the overwork and discontent should be seen in a much broader context – the context of Covid. Noosa Council normally has a much lower staff turnover rate than the average, 6.6 per cent annually against the local government average of around 10 per cent, but the extraordinary pressures of a record workload have increased that substantially. The source told Noosa Today: “We have a capital works program of $50 million when the organisation has the capacity to handle about half of that. To put that in perspective, pre-amalgamation the capital works program was more like $10 million. So everyone is working terribly hard. Then on top of that,

Michael Shave doing a video presentation for Noosa Council in 2018. Covid has triggered a construction boom, so there are a record number of applications coming into building and town planning, putting staff under incredible pressure.

“Covid generally has made people reprioritise what they want out of life because they’ve been able to work from home and spend more time with their families. So we’ve

had staff leave for private consultancy work where they can earn more and be the masters of their own destiny.” The source said the exodus was also affecting Sunshine Coast and other SEQ councils. Another source within Pelican Street disputed the circumstances of Michael Shave’s departure last Friday, saying the parting of the ways had been agreed by mutual consent several weeks earlier. But yet another source said Mr Shave had expressed his disappointment as he left that “councillors are not hearing what’s happening”. The mere fact there are so many versions of what happened is indicative that all is not exactly rosy in the garden. But the more pressing issue is that Council currently has an executive team – the group charged with the responsibility of making stuff happen – that gets more depleted by the day. While change brings renewal, the timing is not great. Brett de Chastel’s replacement as CEO is expected to be announced in late October or early November, while the much-missed Kim Rawlings, director of environment and sustainable development, who has been on extended leave, will return soon but only part-time on light duties. Noosa Today understands another new director with town planning qualifications will need to be appointed.

Quarry fight heads to court

Noosa River

Nod, but no funds for oyster report By Margaret Maccoll A council majority of 4-3 approved the Noosa River Oyster Ecosystem Restoration Project’s second annual report last Thursday. However, Council chief executive Brett De Chastel confirmed its approval would not meet the criteria for a council funding payment which would require the project’s state government approval. Deputy Mayor Frank Wilkie told council Ordinary Meeting last Thursday the benefits of the project had attracted far reaching attention and funding from the federal government and the Thomas Foundation to the tune of $1.2 million each, matching council’s $1.2 million contribution. He described the restoration project as a

restoration of habitat for marine creatures that was not dissimilar to the planting of trees that regularly occurred in land habitat restoration. “We’re very lucky to have this opportunity. We’re going to learn a lot from it,” he said. As custodians of the Noosa Biosphere it’s incumbent on the council to take every opportunity to use science and fact-based well researched projects working with reputable organisations to improve the environment, he said. “We can’t profess to be backing science, fact-based projects then oppose a project like this that so clearly offers the potential of environmental enhancement, environmental benefits,” he said. Cr Karen Finzel questioned the link be-

tween approving the annual report and a council milestone payment of $200,000 with council notes indicating the report met the requirements of the funding agreement. Mayor Clare Stewart did not accept the correlation between tree planting rehabilitation projects and the oyster restoration, saying the former did not require state development permits. She said the project’s KPIs continued to be put back with state approvals initially expected in July 2020 still not obtained 15 months later while pending project payments of $750,000 of ratepayers money, which Cr Joe Jurisevic pointed out came from the Environment Levy, remained quarantined. “We can’t do anything without state permits,” she said.

Noosa Council formally filed proceedings in the Planning and Environment Court at Maroochydore on Friday 17 September to seek enforcement orders to restrict the operation of quarry trucks travelling to and from the Kin Kin Quarry. The application was filed against operator Cordwell Resources as well as Wallajohn Pty Ltd as trustee for the Wallajohn Trust; DJS & John Pty Ltd as trustee for the Daniel Shepperson Family Trust; MWS & John Pty Ltd as trustee for the Mark Shepperson Family Trust; and Ann & Daniel Pty Ltd as trustee for the Anne De Haviland Family Trust. It was accompanied by more than a dozen affidavits, some 15 to 20 pages in length. The matter will first be mentioned at a directions hearing on Friday 24 September. An initial hearing where Council will seek interim enforcement orders for all quarry truck movements to cease during school bus hours will also be sought. Council chief executive officer Brett de Chastel said further proceedings would focus on a number of alleged breaches by the quarry operator and seeks to address the intensification of use issues, which is at the centre of community concern. “Final enforcement orders will be sought requiring the operators to limit the number of quarry trucks per day, avoid convoying and ensure movements are within the operating hours, with all truck loads covered,” Mr de Chastel told the Kin Kin Roundtable meeting on Tuesday. Mayor Clare Stewart thanked community members for their unwavering commitment over several months to gather the necessary evidence. Cr Stewart said more than 20 residents had provided statements which would form a critical part of the legal case. “We continue to stand with the Hinterland community on this issue to ensure the safety of residents and their families,” she said. A council spokesman said it was too premature to say what the court costs would be as the process was ongoing. The community would know the costs once the court case was determined, he said. A community meeting organised by Kin Kin Community Group was scheduled for Thursday 23 September at the Majestic Hall in Pomona, to update residents on the next steps in the legal fight.

Sunshine Coast teacher arrested Detectives from Argos have arrested a 41-yearold Sunshine Coast man in relation to child exploitation material offences. A search warrant was initially executed at his Glenview residence in January 2021 where devices were seized for forensic examination. As a result of examinations by QPS digital forensics experts, evidence was located that will be used to allege the man had possessed and made available child abuse material. The 41-year-old man was charged on Thursday with one count of using a carriage service to access child abuse material, one count of using a carriage service to make available child abuse material, and one count of possessing

child abuse material for use through a carriage service. The man has been released on strict bail conditions and is due to appear at the Maroochydore Magistrates Court on 14 October. The man has been identified as a teacher at a Sunshine Coast private school. At this time, there is no evidence the man has offended against any students, but investigations remain ongoing. Detective Inspector Glen Donaldson of the Child Abuse and Sexual Crime Group’s unit Argos said this case highlights the tenacity of the QPS in targeting child sex offenders.

“This is not a victimless crime. These images have been created through the abuse of real children and anyone involved in possessing or distributing these images continues this cycle of victimisation,” Detective Inspector Donaldson said. “Every day Argos has undercover officers working in a range of online platforms to detect and apprehend people who seek to trade in these horrific images. “To those that seek to engage in this predatory behaviour, remember that everything you do online leaves a trace and the QPS are relentless in targeting anyone involved in this crime.”

Man wanted for fraud offences in Noosa Police are appealing for assistance to identify a man wanted in relation to several fraud offences across Noosa earlier this month. At around 12.30pm on Saturday 4 September the man went into several retail outlets, including two supermarkets, a liquor shop and convenience store on Hastings Street where he used a stolen card to purchase cigarettes and alcohol. He was wearing a short sleeve blue buttoned dress shirt and green khaki shorts. He was carrying a black bag across his body. He is described as Caucasian, approximately 70 years old, 180cm tall and of pro-

portionate build. He is bald with grey sides and was wearing a blue face mask. He was last on foot at the intersection of Noosa Drive and Hastings Street carrying several recyclable shopping bags. The man, or anyone with information regarding his identity is urged to contact police.

New twist at Doonella By Phil Jarratt The saga of the Lake Doonella walkway – first reported last month in Noosa Today – has taken on a strange new twist, with Noosa Council closing public access to the controversial and recently cleared Shields Street to Moorindil Street section on 9 September, citing “safety concerns over higher than anticipated usage”. The group of Tewantin residents who first raised concerns about the overgrown state of this section of the Doonella Wetlands Nature Reserve was blindsided by the sudden closure. A spokesperson commented: “The use of the pathway demonstrates there is a strong community need for this infrastructure, as recently endorsed in Council’s Cycling and Walkway Strategy and Implementation Plan … We would like to know what safety concerns (if any) the well-used pathway is posing?” The group posted on Noosa Community Noticeboard Facebook page: “Further to Noosa Today’s front page article in August, a new walkway track has been established by Council, supported by Councillors Lorenston and Juresivic. The pathway has also been endorsed in Council’s cycling and walking strategy … the local community have been walking the track daily, which is established on top of existing Unitywater undergound infrastructure. Public land.” The post continued: “However, in a surprise turn of events an email was received from Council’s new Director of Infrastructure, advising of the track’s sudden closure. In response to this - we asked Council what safety concerns (if any) the well-used pathway is posing? The current pathway alignment is on existing infrastructure and is akin to walking along other areas of road reserve and natural foreshore like Weyba Esplanade.” In the 8 September email to the community group’s leaders, Council’s infrastructure chief Larry Sengstock said council had commissioned a boundary survey of the area and the

Beautiful, peaceful Lake Doonella, seen from Noosa Lakes Resort. Picture: NOOSA LAKES RESORT walkway would remain closed until that had been completed. However, the group subsequently learnt Council had yet to even engage a surveyor for the job. While the Tewantin residents are not happy about the walkway closure, sources told Noosa Today that they were “playing the long game”. A spokesperson said: “We want Council support on the future of this area and we want to take it to a positive outcome. “The group has obtained a legal opinion about the ambulatory boundaries from an environmental law firm which talks about the public interest test and an immediate survey of the land to determine what is public. The group has also joined forces with the Noosa Integrated Catchment Association (NICA) and their ecologist to form a partnership for a survey of the Noosa lower estuaries so that we can fix the problems and keep our water quality rating up. It’s all related to the general health of

the river, and Doonella plays such an important part in that. The initial goal is to weed and revegetate the road reserve areas at the end of Shields Street. “The ultimate goal is to provide community access to the foreshores while improving the vegetation and stormwater around the lake“, the spokesperson said. In a statement received just as Noosa Today went to press, Mr Sengstock said: “There are a range of complex and historic issues relating to this section of land. Council has instigated an investigation into this matter including a comprehensive survey to clarify property boundaries. In the meantime, we have closed this section of informal pathway and ask the community to not enter this land until we have a resolution. Council appreciates the community is passionate about this area of foreshore and will make every effort to resolve this as soon as possible for all concerned.”

Unique luxury makes list By Abbey Cannan Australian Traveller magazine has just released its list of the top 100 Unique Stays in Australia, and Noosa is in the spotlight. Among others in Queensland, Domic House located in Sunshine Beach, Noosa, has been recognised on the list, along with a frontcover feature. Named after the Russian term meaning place of domes, Domic is a truly astonishing addition to the Noosa landscape. Not only does the house feature utterly beautiful architecture, but it is also environmentally friendly. Designed by multi-award-winning architect, Noel Robinson, the house features the use of Hempcrete which is known for its carbon dioxide absorbing properties, along with various other eco-friendly additions. In terms of design, the breathtaking architecture of the house intends to blend into the natural environment by “blurring the lines between building and landscape”, as Robinson stated. With four levels, a 25-metre lap pool, spa, steam room and gym just to name some, Domic creates the perfect balance between luxury and eco-efficiency. The Noosa and Sunshine Coast features in Australian Traveller are great news for the region, with the highly anticipated September and, most importantly, Christmas school holidays travel times fast approaching. Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson said the property spoke for itself. “What an amazing thing for Noosa that we have the front cover of what is known as the

Queensland strawberry farmers put out an urgent SOS - Save Our Strawberries - to help tackle over-supply issues and food wastage. There are about 80 strawberry farmers in Queensland with most growers located in our own backyard - the Moreton Bay, Sunshine Coast and Noosa regions. Unitywater had purchased strawberries from LuvaBerry Farm in Wamuran, McMartins Farm in Bli Bli and Eumundi Farm Fresh. Unitywater executive manager for customer and community Katherine Gee said the strawberry punnets would be delivered to OzHarvest, Maroochy Neighbourhood Centre and Caboolture Community Action. “Our purpose is keeping communities healthy,” Ms Gee said. “There are a lot of ways in which we can do that beyond safe and reliable water and sewerage services. “We heard the call from our local strawberry farmers for help and we’re proud to

be able to play a small part in that and also help our community partners like OzHarvest and other homeless support centres with a delivery of deliciously sweet south-east Queensland grown strawberries. “We encourage the community to support the strawberry farms within our region and buy from the local markets and farms during this difficult time for them.” The Queensland Strawberry Growers’ Association said every punnet purchased would help farmers to stay afloat as perfect growing conditions provided quality berries, but Covid-19 had impacted sales. LuvaBerry director Mandy Schultz said the support was greatly appreciated and needed for the farm, which has been in the family since 1945. “The past couple of years have certainly been more challenging and difficult, so we sincerely appreciate the generous support that locals give us, which helps us to continue our family business,” Ms Schultz said. “If you can’t get to a local farm that is opened to the public, the best way to support is to buy more than one punnet at the shops.”

Addressing Code Red By Dr Brian Hoepper

Professor Ian Lowe

PCBA climate change talks justice. Madeleine’s vivid examples raised uncomfortable questions about some familiar aspects of everyday life, particularly clothing, transportation and food. But she went further, quoting leading thinkers who believe living better with less can be good for one’s sense of self and emotional well-being. Professor Ian Lowe, a long-time friend of PBCA, took the theme of Code Red to an urgent and challenging level. As one of thousands of scientific signatories to the latest IPCC report,

he drew on key research to chart the historical origins, current state and likely future of the world’s environmental crisis. Ian left no doubt that business as usual was an untenable position, and that reducing emissions and decarbonising the economy were essential if human society was to avoid dramatic upheaval. His stark message ... ‘we must act now!’. Among the attentive audience were Noosa

MP Sandy Bolton and Councillors Frank Wilkie and Brian Stockwell. The speeches by Jenna, Madeleine and Ian sparked an animated question and answer session. PBCA hopes that, in the months ahead, the discussion will continue well beyond the walls of the community house. The event was livestreamed to a wider audience on the PBCA Facebook page, where video of the speeches can still be seen.

When the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued its stark ‘Code Red for Humanity’ report, the Peregian Beach Community Association certainly took note. The association heard the urgent conversations among national leaders and everyday citizens around the globe. PBCA invited the local community to explore the climate change issue at a special ‘Code Red for Peregian Beach’ event at the Peregian Beach Community House on Sunday 19 September. The response was enthusiastic. Attendees were encouraged to BYO favourite snacks and drinks. Adding to the convivial atmosphere was Synco, a band of young musicians whose ‘songs that changed the world’ were interspersed with the presentations. The Sunday afternoon gathering took a novel approach. Having secured internationally-renowned climate scientist Professor Ian Lowe as a speaker, PBCA paired him with two young women keen to talk about their generation’s perspective on this pressing issue. Jenna Riddiford, a senior student and environmental leader at St Teresa’s College, spoke first. Jenna shared a personal story of her gradual awakening to the issue and her evolving commitment to climate change action. With admirable frankness, she described a rocky path of enthusiasm, growing disillusion and re-energised involvement. For the overwhelmingly adult audience, Jenna offered a valuable insight into her generation’s hopes and fears about an uncertain future. Jenna was followed by another environmental leader at St Teresa’s, Madeleine Cleland. Building her talk around evocative images, Madeleine explored the idea and practice of minimalism - living better with less. She highlighted not only the environmental impacts of our modern lifestyle but also its links to social

K’gari name adopted “It continues the Palaszczuk Government’s commitment to reconciliation and healing; to building, strengthening and reframing our relationships with First Nations peoples. Member for Hervey Bay Adrian Tantari said the naming was a significant milestone for the community, and was an important acknowledgment of Butchulla history and connection to Country. “This is a significant step for all involved. With so many people rekindling their love of the island as domestic tourism increases, I hope they can appreciate what K’gari means - paradise,’ Mr Tantari said. “This is a place with such a rich history of Indigenous culture, one that we should definitely acknowledge. “Our community has acknowledged the name K’gari for quite some time now, and I can’t wait for visitors to do the same.” Kate Doolan from the Butchulla Native Title Aboriginal Corporation welcomed the World Heritage Area’s name change to K’gari. “On behalf of the Butchulla people, we pay respect to our Elders who are no longer with us to hear this news,” Ms Doolan said. “Today is a time of reflection for our people and for those souls who long advocated for such a meaningful change over such a lengthy period of time. “BNTAC also looks forward to a positive future relationship with the Department of Environment and Science and the State of Queensland, to promote reconciliation by working collaboratively in partnership.” Kingfisher Bay Resort group general manager David Hay said the name change was timely and necessary. “With the support of the Butchulla people, we have been calling the island K’gari for some time now,” Mr Hay said.

USC Australia’s Professor of Geography and author Patrick Nunn.

Religion key to change Religion, not science, is the key to tackling the impacts of climate change in the Pacific Islands, says USC Australia’s Professor of Geography and author Patrick Nunn. Professor Nunn and USC Adjunct Professor Johannes Luetz have co-edited a new book, Beyond Belief: Opportunities for Faith-Engaged Approaches to Climate-Change Adaptation in the Pacific Islands, which features 20 chapters by experts from Australia, the Pacific Islands and Europe. The book, published by Springer, was launched at USC’s Sunshine Coast campus at Sippy Downs on 21 September. Professor Nunn said spending 35 years in the Pacific had shown him that the approaches used to communicate the risks associated with climate change in Australia and elsewhere would not work there. “Most Pacific Island people - and I’m talking 98-99 per cent - are spiritually engaged to the extent their religious beliefs (mainly Christian) inform their world views and basically guide their everyday decision making,” he said.

“If a scientist comes in and talks science then they’ll all sit very politely and listen. But as soon as the scientist is gone, they’ll say: ‘Why is God doing this to us?’ and ‘What does God expect us to do about it?’. “So I really wanted to write something about that insight because I think that many countries, including Australia, have been getting it wrong for a long time”. Professor Nunn, who is the co-director of USC’s Sustainability Research Centre, said despite millions being spent over decades to help Pacific Islander people cope with the effects of climate change he could not point to a single intervention that had succeeded. “If people haven’t been trained in science and haven’t been trained to value what science can give them, then they don’t accept scientific explanations for anything really,” he said. “This is especially true among older generations who have a great deal of influence in their societies. We need to understand what their value system is and how to engage with that value system to get results.” 12513996-HC39-21

The World Heritage Area within Great Sandy National Park, which is centred on Fraser Island, along with the surrounding waters and parts of the nearby mainland, has been renamed K’gari - the original Butchulla people’s name for the island. The move was celebrated at a ceremony with Butchulla representatives and Elders on K’gari. The name change was formally adopted at the recent 44th session of the World Heritage Committee and is a major milestone in a long running campaign by the region’s Traditional Owners. Butchulla Aboriginal Corporation chairperson Jade Gould said her people welcomed the name change of the World Heritage Area to K’gari. “The Butchulla people have been campaigning for years to change the name,” Ms Gould said. “The name Fraser Island is a tribute to Eliza Fraser- a woman whose narrative directly lead to the massacre and dispossession of the Butchulla people. “A word meaning paradise in Butchulla language is a much more fitting name for such an iconic place.” Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon said the formal adoption of “K’gari (Fraser Island)” for the World Heritage Area was a big milestone and reason to celebrate. “K’gari, the surrounding waters and parts of the mainland are home for the Butchulla people who have long asked for K’gari’s name to be repatriated,” Minister Scanlon said. “I am pleased I will be with the Butchulla representatives and Elders for the official ceremony.” “The name change recognises and honours the Butchulla peoples and their traditions, their culture and their ongoing connection to Country.

Funds to strengthen UHF A new UHF repeater will help keep Double Island Point locals and visitors in touch with vital services and improve communication on the popular stretch of beach, Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien announced on Monday. “New cablings, antennas and a repeater will be installed, and old solar panels will be replaced, with assistance from a $15,000 Stronger Communities Programme grant to the Double Island Point UHF Committee,” Mr O’Brien said. “This provides a much-needed communication channel in the Double Island Point area, so people can still access weather updates, beach conditions, tidal alerts and emergency information even if they are in an area where their mobile telephone does not receive reception. “This is particularly important during emergency situations whether they are natural

disasters like bushfires, accidents with boats off the shore, or four-wheel drives that use the beach, as it will allow contact with emergency services and first responders.” Mr O’Brien commended Double Island Point UHF Committee president Benjamin Bulat for his hard work and dedication in improving safety for the Cooloola Coast community. “The Double Island Point UHF Committee has raised several thousand dollars from local community members and businesses to purchase the necessary equipment, and I am delighted to support their work with this federal funding through the Stronger Communities Programme,” he said. “This is a project that I have strongly supported, I have met with the community about this issue, and I have also discussed the matter with State Member for Gympie Tony Perrett,

and we will work together for improved communications and improved public safety in our coastal communities.” The Stronger Communities Programme Round 6 provided up to $150,000 for each of the 151 federal electorates in Australia, with grants of between $2,500 and $20,000 available for eligible organisations including incorporated not-for-profit community service and sporting groups and councils. “There is always strong interest in the Stronger Communities Programme grants, and competition is keen, so I encourage organisations interested in bringing forward SCP project proposals in future rounds to contact my electorate office on telephone 4121 2936, or the Sunshine Coast, or Wide Bay Burnett Regional Development Australia Committees through the website www.rda.gov.au,” Mr O’Brien said.

Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien has handed over a $15,000 Stronger Communities Programme grant to the Double Island Point UHF Committee.

Large fines for illegal commercial fishing activities Two commercial fishers have had their licences suspended with others fined a total of $18,000 after court cases involving more than 50 charges against three fishers were heard in three Queensland Magistrates’ courts. Minister for Agricultural Industry Development and Fisheries and Minister for Rural Communities Mark Furner said the penalties imposed by the courts reflected the serious nature of the offences. “These penalties should send a loud message to all fishers that illegal activity will be prosecuted, and appropriate penalties applied,” Mr Furner said. “In particular, the five-year licence suspension for obstructing Queensland Boating

and Fisheries Patrol (QBFP) inspectors handed down in the Hervey Bay Magistrates Court is a clear signal that obstructing QBFP staff will not be tolerated. “The licence suspension is a welcome outcome as the defendant was found guilty of three offences on two separate occasions. “Similarly, the penalties imposed by the Bundaberg Magistrates court reflect serious and repeated offending, including selling fish on the black market. “The commercial fisher was fined $13,000 and his commercial fisher licence suspended for two years for 18 offences including possessing and selling regulated fish and catch reporting irregularities.

“His illegal haul included female and undersized mud crabs, sawfish rostrums, and several undersized fish species. “And in the Caboolture Magistrates Court a commercial fisher was fined $5000 for 31 offences relating to not providing all of the required information in his logbooks. “These examples of blatant disregard for the rules are disturbing but highlight the diligence of QBFP officers in detecting them and prosecuting them through the courts.” Mr Furner said all fishers had a responsibility to abide by laws to ensure a sustainable future for all fishers. “Our state’s fisheries resources belong to all Queenslanders and there is simply no ex-

cuse for commercial fishers not following the very rules designed to protect their industry,” he said. “For example, valid and reliable logbook data is vital to assessing and monitoring stock status, a key element to making sure there are fish for our children and grandchildren. “Commercial fishing is not easy work and the vast majority of commercial fishers do the right thing, but all fishers need to understand the regulations otherwise you will be caught and you will be prosecuted.” For information on Queensland’s fishing regulations, visit fisheries.qld.gov.au

Foster dog call success Local charity PTSD Dogs Australia, based in Tewantin, put the call out last week for dog lovers to come forward to foster dogs who are in training to become assistance dogs to support first responders and Defence Force veterans, suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD Dogs Australia founder and chief executive officer Angie Weeks said “their organisation has had amazing success helping PTSD sufferers find relief and support through the company of a trained assistance dog, however,

at the moment, they can’t keep up with the demand.“ Since the charity began in 2018, 13 former service personnel who have faithfully served our community, have received assistance dogs, at no cost, and eight rescue dogs have been rehomed in the process. Ms Weeks said there are currently 171 people on their waiting list for a trained support dog. “We need help from dog lovers in the community to help us raise more pups and get the

training process started,“ she said. The work PTSD Dogs Australia is doing is not only providing a better life for dogs who have been displaced, it’s also making a world of difference for people who are battling the very real and debilitating effects of post-traumatic stress disorder. A properly trained assistance dog can improve the quality of life for someone suffering from PTSD enormously, making it easier for them to go out in public, and make dealing with stressful situations far easier.

Their information session held at The Noosa Boardroom last week was well attended, but they are always interested in hearing from others who may be interested in providing a foster home for an assistance dog in training. Anyone interested in welcoming a dog into their home for the duration of their training can visit the website for more information, and to register their interest. Visit ptsddogs.org.au/foster and fill in the expression of interest form.

Doggy blood donors needed to help save dog lives North Coast Veterinary Specialist and Referral Centre is urging Sunshine Coast dogs and cats to help save the lives of animals in need by rolling up their fur and donating blood. As the only dedicated facility of its kind north of Brisbane, NCVS often treats animals requiring urgent blood transfusions due to injury or medical conditions. The Sippy Downs-based centre relies on pet owners in the community to assist by allowing their dogs and cats to donate blood. It’s now calling for pet owners to join their Blood Drive and register their eligible pets. Dr Naomi Hansen said the process of donating a pet’s blood was very similar to humans giving blood. “We sedate the pets ... and then we get what’s considered to be a unit of blood from our patient. Then we can keep this unit in the fridge for 28 days” Dr Hansen said. “It’s not something that people would think we are able to do, but we do it quite easily and we do it quite a lot.” There are a number of reasons why a dog

The monies raised are projected back in to student resources and updating play spaces within the grounds. Highlights of the day included all three principals being dunked in the dunking machine, the tunnel of terror, photo booth, white elephant and plant stalls and the jumping castles.

The Humanities students completed a unit of work this term on the movement of people, which included a study of ‘blackbirding’ in Queensland. Mr Fatnowna spoke to the students about his great-grandparents who were ‘blackbirded’ from the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu in the late 1800s to clear land in Queensland for the start of the sugar industry. Important traditions and customs were explained in depth, and students had the opportunity to see in-person the Olympic torch Mr Fatnowa carried through Mackay in the lead up to the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. The students found the presentation to be most useful in bringing to life much of their learnings this term.

$8m car show for hospice cottage By Jim Fagan More than 120 classic and current model cars worth an estimated $8 million will be on display at Chaplin Park, Noosaville, on Sunday, October 3. Noosa’s Roadrunner Car Club, whose members come from Brisbane to Gympie and Hervey Bay, is staging its annual charity car show, an extravaganza of cars ranging from a $1.6 million 1922 Bugatti Type 13, a 1934 Jaguar SS1 and a 1936 Oldsmobile Sloper to this year’s current model GT Mustang. And, just as it did at its last car show, proceeds will be donated to Katie Rose Cottage Hospice at Doonan. Racing fans can expect to see a Holden Supercar and a Porsche 997.2 Porsche Cup Car. For motorcycle enthusiasts, there is a rare 1935 OK Supreme and a 1937 Velocette still in its original condition. While everything on display has a history, the story of the almost 100-year-old Bugatti which raced at Isle of Man and Maroubra, Sydney, racetracks is worth telling. Owner Mick Freestone, of Bli Bli, inherited the car from his dad, Ernie, in 1980. “Dad was working in a service station in Adelaide in 1960 which had a showroom full of old cars. A chap came in to pay for his fuel and said, ‘I’ve got a small car under the house and you can have it.’ “Dad found the Bugatti in a million bits and put it back in near operating condition with all the parts he had. “I took over and I have nearly completed the project to Bugatti standard. I’ve just had the radiator refurbished and the oil pump done up but it’s not working 100 per cent at the moment. I may have to push it into the car show!” Club president Graeme Block anticipates a relaxed, happy event. He told Noosa Today, “We want to create a picnic atmosphere around the cars where people can sit and talk to the owners. “We enjoy our cars and we are inviting people to share our enthusiasm. “The Noosa Lions Club is providing breakfast and then a sausage lunch. There will be ice creams for the kids and there is a very special raffle with race car driver Gerry Murphy selling tickets to win hot laps at Queensland Raceway with one of his racing cars that will be on display. “People will be able to have their photo taken in the race car for a gold coin donation.” Graeme said the club was formed only three years ago and “already we have 250 members and growing.

Over 40 native bird species, as well as many insects, have so far been identified in the park. Renata said that she was “very excited to have the first bushcare group begin in Cooroy”. The morning culminated with the planting of a Kauri tree, Agathis robusta for which the park is named. Visit the group’s facebook page at facebook.com/ groups/1404882136571989 Members of the group have agreed to meet for monthly working bees on the second Sunday of the month. If you would like to meet new friends while contributing to the local community and its natural environment, contact Renata at renata.neumann@noosa.qld.gov.au or on 5329 6549.

MINISERIES: DES ABC TV, 8.30pm

SUNDAY

FIRES ABC TV, 8.40pm

The devastating blazes of 2019 and 2020 which swept across Australia are the motive behind this star-studded six-part anthology series. Co-creator/executive producer Tony Ayres (Glitch) wanted to tell the real stories of the people affected “so that we never forget what they went through and always remember our responsibility for change.” In tonight’s premiere, volunteer firefighters Tash (Eliza Scanlen) and Mott (Hunter Page-Lochard, pictured) nearly lose their lives, but form a bond.

SATURDAY

BATTLE OF BRITAIN: 3 DAYS TO SAVE THE UK SBS, 7.30pm

Whether you are a history buff who delights in every little detail or someone who feels like watching something different to a reality TV or game show tonight, you should probably get your nerves in check. As British historian and veteran TV presenter Dan Snow warns, with foreboding music flooding our ears: “We’ll be telling the story in minute-by-minute detail”. Using archival footage and real-life recreations of critical moments, Snow and his co-presenter Kate Humble (pictured) examine three pivotal days during WWII, when the British air force was bombarded by Hitler’s Luftwaffe. It’s a very theatrical, high-impact history lesson.

TUESDAY

GHOSTS ABC TV PLUS, 9.10pm

Death is a laughing matter in this funny and unique series the whole family can enjoy. Returning tonight for a third season at Button House, fans will be delighted to see the ghosts of past seasons haven’t left. If you’re unfamiliar with this quaint, lighthearted British series, there are two fantastic seasons waiting to be binged. You’ll be enamoured by the motley crew of spirits, including Kitty (Lolly Adefope, pictured), who are forever stuck wearing the garb they took their last breath in, as they try to coexist with the living house residents. Tonight, there’s a revelation when a ﬁlm crew arrives to shoot a reconstruction of an assassination plot for a historical documentary.

The talented David Tennant, who glides from sci-ﬁ (Doctor Who) and murdermystery (Broadchurch) to comedy (Staged), steers a subtler route in this uncomfortable dramatised examination of Scottish serial killer Dennis “Des” Nilsen. From 1978 to 1973, Nilsen killed at least 12 boys and men: this three-part miniseries, premiering tonight, explores the mind of the murderer after he openly admitted to his crimes, the challenges of the police force in dealing with him and ﬁnding his victims, and the cultural climate of early ’80s Britain. Bleak but compelling, Tennant’s portrayal is sophisticated and guarded, adding to the mystery of the impassive serial killer.

David Tennant stars as a serial killer in Des.

ILLEGAL DUMPING RISE PROMPTS WARNING Would-be dumpers told to ‘think twice’ as council boosts monitoring program with better use of new technology to help catch offenders Putting a lid on unsightly illegal rubbish dumping is firmly on council’s radar, with more than $27,000 worth of fines handed out during the 2020/21 financial year.

While staff are reviewing data to determine reasons for the increase, Waste Coordinator Ian Florence urged would-be illegal dumpers to “think twice”.

The fines follow investigations into more than 420 reports of littering and dumping during the 12-month period. It’s an uptick on the previous year’s 344 reports and $7000 in fines.

“Particularly with larger amounts of dumped rubbish we certainly pursue all possible avenues to track down those responsible, and the fines are significant,” he said.

24 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 24 September, 2021

Fines for smaller littering offences start at $275 - and $551 where dangerous material such as broken glass is involved. Fines for significant illegal dumping start at $2,135 and can even attract fines in excess of $100,000.

remove it and remediate the site are often significant.”

“Illegal dumping is not only unsightly, it can harm the environment, it poses health risks, and the costs to ratepayers to

“But we still can’t be everywhere so we ask anyone who sees illegal dumping to report it.” Contact council on (07) 5329 6500.

He said council had boosted its monitoring program over the past year to include better use of technology to catch offenders.

JEN LOVES FACE-TO-FACE CONTACT IN BRIEF council’s face-to-face contact remains steady. In the past 12 months, staff handled 10,958 front counter enquiries.

There were over 53,000 phone calls during the year. And nearly two-thirds of those enquiries were resolved immediately. “Our officers endeavor to do what they can to answer the enquiry on the spot,” he said. But Jen loves the face to face contact. “We are so fortunate to have a job where we can help,” she said. When she’s not solving a council request, Jen likes to make the most of exploring Noosa’s backyard. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Jen Taylor and Jason Pratt handle hundreds of enquiries daily.

On average, our friendly customer service team handles 260 enquiries a day.

being and it’s satisfying to be able to help a community I am passionate about,” she said.

In 2020-21, they notched up a total of 71,227 calls, emails and webchats.

“A majority of people are really pleasant and thankful,” she said.

For Jen Taylor, a 13-year veteran of council’s dedicated Customer Service team, she wouldn’t have it any other way.

Customer Service Manager Jason Pratt said the team prides itself on being helpful. With more customer service moving online these days,

“The customer is our reason for

“I try and walk Noosa National Park every weekend or take a stroll down Hastings St. “We’re so fortunate to live and work in such a beautiful spot.” However priority number one for Jen is spending quality time with her three grandchildren, with a fourth on the way. While our customer service staff are always here to help, you can access council services 24/7 via our website.

SCHOOL HOLIDAY FUN FOR THE KIDS From bubs to teens, there’s something for everyone There’s still plenty of activities to keep the kids busy on the last week of the holidays. Noosa Council’s venues offer a range of fun activities to keep your children entertained over the school holidays, from storytelling to crafty workshops, indoor and outdoor sporty fun. Kids can try their hand at designing and printing in 3D at the library. At the Noosa Regional Gallery there’s a drawing masterclass on offer, as well as a fun session on creating optical illusions with paint. At The J they can help settle an age old debate on which is

better: juggling or magic, at a one-off show on Wednesday 29 September – and see the loser get SLIMED! The Noosa Aquatic Centre is holding learn-to swim-intensives, there’s a teen gym program or they can just enjoy the heated pools and café. Or the kids can head to the Noosa Leisure Centre and shoot some hoops on the basketball court, or get more serious and join a basketball comp. For the younger ones there’s always the kids playroom – fun for babies to 5-year-olds with a

jumping castle, balancing beam and lots of balls and soft things to climb on. Check out the full program on our website.

Works to install a shade sail at Sunshine Beach Skate Park have been completed. The shade sail design was based on feedback from the community and is the first stage of improvements to this popular facility which serves as a training ground for up-and-coming local and international skaters. Early next year, council will replace the metal half pipe with a prefabricated structure with materials better suited to the coastal environment and will be installing a modern ramp surface consistent with those used in international vert ramp competitions. These improvements have been made possible through State Government Unite and Recover Funding.

TECH WORKSHOPS FOR SENIORS Noosa Library Service is offering free tech lessons for seniors to help them gain confidence using technology, so they can continue to check in with loved ones and access the online services they need. Lessons include how to get started with iPhones, iPads, Android devices, social media and messaging, and how to stay safe online. Held at Noosaville and Cooroy libraries, Pomona Community House and Peregian Beach Community House. Bookings are essential and can be made by phoning 5329 6555 or on the events calendar on the library website: www.libraries. noosa.qld.gov.au.

Boreen Point Estate, 1933.

Not just any small town By Phil Jarratt In the world of books, self-publishing can be a thankless task, in which the list of jobs you need to complete to get your creation to market often seems never-ending. But Boreen Point retirees Sylvia and Max Bannah have succeeded where so many others have failed, and they have created a book of local history that is informative, entertaining and beautifully produced. Author Sylvia and Max, the jack of all trades behind the scenes, admit this five-year labour of love became an obsession, but then, all books do, and it is only when you can see the joy they bring to others that you know that the hard yards and heartbreak that went into your creation were truly worthwhile. Launching Boreen Point … not just any small town at The Appolonian Hotel last month, Sylvia said: “Max and I approached a publisher of local histories who was happy to take it on but we would have had to hand over the manuscript, with its 400-plus illustrations and not have any input into the look and feel of the book. After exploring other options and missing out on a grant to cover its publication, we decided to do it ourselves. “This involved Max taking care of the design and layout using a complex program with which he was unacquainted. As happens with most skills in Boreen Point, one person’s shortcomings can be complemented by another’s expertise. And in this case, recently-arrived residents Angela Blakely and David Lloyd guided Max through all the challenges the program presented, and were on hand to help whenever he got stuck.” Sylvia also recounted how, in true community spirit, The Appolonian Social Club and the pub itself chipped in with trivia and music fundraising nights to help cover the print and other bills, so while it was the drive of the Bannahs that got the job done, it is a book the entire small community can own. She continued: “When I started looking into Boreen Point’s history at the beginning of 2017, I had no ambition other than to satisfy my own curiosity about the place that our family had been visiting since the 1980s, and to which Max and I retired in 2012. I was vaguely aware of bits and pieces of the history through the Eliza Fraser monument and visits to Mill Point, and through this lovely old hotel … I was also aware that our camping trips had taken place within the Cooloola National Park and that the small stone tools that we came across on the Sandpatch had been left there long ago by First Nations people.” While the book covers pre-European history, it’s primary focus is on the 150 years since timber and property baron Frederick Goodchap selected the land that is now the town. Said Sylvia: “There are many ways Boreen Point’s story could have been told. For the most part, my version follows a chronological path as it seeks to track ownership by just a small number of people in its first 70 years,

As Sylvia told the launch crowd: “While Boreen Point may have been typical of many small towns, it was far from typical in the inspiration that its people and the environment provided for one of Australia’s most loved and admired literary figures, Judith Wright and her playwright husband Jack McKinney, who were regular visitors to their holiday house in Vista Street from 1953 to the mid-60s. While Jack wrote a play about the salt-of-the-earth characters he met here, Judith wrote numerous poems, short stories, a memoir and letters.” In her autobiography, Half A Lifetime, Judith describes her first impressions of Boreen: “A little village of nine or 10 houses and a general store, all delectably perched on a lake shore above a pink and white sandstone cliff.” Judith, Jack and their little daughter Meredith had intended to camp, but instead rented Snuggle Inn, a newly-built cottage of tiny rooms, “like a toy house made of the sand around it”. Soon they had bought their own, which they named “Melaleuca” for the paperbarks that grew around the lake. Here they found Boreen Point was “a good place to write in, no

Judging by this, former librarian Sylvia’s first book, Boreen Point is still a good place to write. Illuminated by former animator and illustrator

Max’s design, maps and caricatures, her stories leap off the page with a love for her adopted home that is evident in every sentence. Boreen Point … not just any small town is available at all good bookstores, and at Noosa Village News. Friday, 24 September, 2021 NOOSA TODAY 29

Locals first on trail walk By Gntw Coordinator Lisa Marshall The Great Noosa Country Trail Walk due to take place over the long weekend, 2-4 October, showcases the scenic Noosa Hinterland and connects the towns of Cooroy, Kin Kin, Cooran and Pomona, over the three-day, 56km hike through farmland, bush, country trails and natural reserves. The first Great Noosa Trail Walk was held in 2013 after two years of planning by the creator Shaun Walsh. “I started the event because I wanted to give the trail network a quality event involving the locals, to keep the profile high and ensure the trail network was never lost to these communities,” Shaun said. Shaun was well connected in Cooroy, Kin Kin, Cooran and Pomona, and together a local group of passionate volunteers continued to develop the idea of a community supported event, providing financial benefit to community groups and local businesses. Instrumental to the ethos of the event is the focus of it being non-competitive, non-exclusive and showcasing the wonderful Noosa Country for people to return to at any time. Walkers come from all over Australia most years, and many choose to stay a few days in the region to further explore after the event. The first year sold out in weeks and 90 walkers and 10 trail guides started the walk in October 2013. It has been a success every year since, and has grown to 200 walkers in 2021, even with the challenges of having to cancel or reschedule the event some years due to bushfires and Covid restrictions. “I feel very proud to have been able to share this remarkable Noosa Country landscape and the local communities with so many walkers since 2013. The recent announcement of the Noosa Trail Master Plan and new funding by Noosa Council and the State Government shows that the profile of the trail network has been recognised for the quality if deserves.” The success of the walk is largely due to the passionate involvement of the community volunteers and trail guides. In their friendly welcoming way, they play a key part in inspiring the walkers to get out on the trail and provide local knowledge and insights into the landscape and local towns.

Walkers on the trail. “It is the authenticity of the event and the local people, coupled with the cracker Noosa countryside that have provided the event with such a good reputation,” Shaun said. The trail guides are there as support to those who need help with navigating the route, or a little encouragement to keep going on the steep, hilly parts of the route. But as the route is marked for the event, the idea is to encourage walkers to be self-sufficient and to find their way across the landscape. Walkers have the freedom to walk by themselves with their thoughts or find new friends and share experiences. The guides are simply there as a soft support network to help if needed. For many newcomers, this gentle entry into the joys of long-distance walking is just what they need to be inspired to get out in nature more often. These newcomers revel in the support network provided by the trail guides, and the friendliness of the community volunteers

Trail creator Shaun Walsh. and the country towns. “The trail guides are all different sizes and ages and that characteristic makes our less experienced walkers feel very comfortable as we definitely don’t look like we have stepped out of a magazine! But the trail guides have exceptionally good endurance and emotional and physical strength and make all walkers feel comfortable,” Shaun said. Funds raised from the Great Noosa Country Trail Walk are put back into community projects identified by the Cooroy Future Group Inc. This year, the walkers will be able to see how the proceeds have enabled the planting of 2200 tree species through a donation to Noosa Landcare. The event also follows a zero-waste policy, and a “leave no trace” policy, which means their focus is on leaving only footprints behind on the trails. Since its inception, this walk has been organised, managed and carried out by a host of

passionate volunteers, local organisations and sponsors. The Cooroy Future Group Inc (CFG) are grateful for the support, insights and collaborations that have built the foundations for the 2021 Great Noosa Country Trail Walk, and would like to thank Visit Noosa, Noosa Council, Hintercoast Transport, Rotary Club of Eumundi, Kin Kin Community Inc, Pomona Cooroy Lions Club, Pomona Cooran Cutters Footy Club, Cooroy Butter Factory Arts Centre, Pomona Railway Station Gallery, Board and volunteers of the Cooroy Future Group Inc, the founder of the GNTW, Shaun Walsh and his amazing team of Trail Guides for making the event possible.

Chorale’s Mozart special By Jim Fagan Noosa Chorale music director and conductor Adrian King said last Friday and Saturday’s “Majestic Mozart” concerts were “memorable and special”. “We have to count ourselves very fortunate at this time of Covid that the production went ahead without interruption,” Mr King said. After three plus months of practising while wearing masks, the choir clearly appreciated the freedom of unrestrained singing. Singing the Mozart Requiem in D Minor with the choir and the Noosa Chorale Orchestra were four talented soloists well known to Opera Queensland fans, Judit Molnar (soprano), Anne Fulton (mezzo soprano), Mark Jowett (bass) and Graham Godfrey (tenor). The soloists also performed arias from Mozartian operas. “Many audience and orchestral players came up to me at the end of both concerts to ecstatically say how impressed they were,” Mr King said.

LETTERS NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Politicians need to listen Thank you, Noosa Today, for highlighting the alarming fact of Climate Change in your latest edition. The front page - “Kids get say on climate” - is a recognition that it’s the young who will bear the brunt of what will be a catastrophic future if we continue on our present path, while the letter from Cooran Earth Rights, Climate implications for Noosa, emphasises the need for urgent action (Code Red) and some possible steps that Noosa Council could take. Let’s hope that our Federal member, Llew O’Brien, is taking notice. Despite much advertising and editorial material in the local press, not once has he even mentioned Climate Change, apparently beholden to denialists and fossil-fuel supporters in the National Party. Although Wide Bay is primarily a rural electorate, he is seemingly unaware of his own government’s timid steps to assist farmers there is a reasonable pilot programme which pays farmers to protect high value vegetation on their properties, retaining carbon and increasing biodiversity at the same time. The fact is that the Nationals, once representing farmers, now seem to care only for the coal mining sector. As coal is phased out, employees and communities which depend on this resource will be left stranded. Where are the alternative economic models and employment opportunities helping them make the transition to a sustainable future? Nowhere in sight, as far as Mr O’Brien and the Nationals are concerned. It’s imperative that our kids do get a say on climate and equally imperative that our politicians listen and act accordingly. John Burrows, Lake Macdonald

Road speed fiasco All road users in Noosa Shire should be made aware of the ridiculous and farcical speed limit signs that exist in the area of the two roundabouts where Hilton Terrace joins Gympie Terrace and so forth with Gibson Road and Eumundi Road. It is worthy of a Benny Hill comedy and depends upon speed levels on entering, merging and others exiting where 40, 50 and 60 limits cross over each other, apply together or vary from one side of the road to the other at the same point. Hilton Terrace has a speed limit of 50 until Gympie Terrace bridge and changes to 40, but oncoming traffic from the bridge at the same point on the other side of the road from 50 continues at 40 and joins Hilton Terrace roundabout traffic at 50, onward at 40 and also changes to 60 at Gibson Road and to Eumundi Road southwards at 60. Eumundi Road in the opposite direction northwards, towards the river, has a speed limit of 60 around to Hilton Terrace, but joins the 50 limit around to Gympie Terrace and onwards to 40 and 50 around to Gibson Road. In between the two roundabouts Eumundi Road has 40, 50 and 60 depending upon inside and outside lanes and from one side of the road to the other; likewise from several other points such as where Gympie Terrace joins Hilton Terrace and where the limit is 40 one side and 50 the other. If readers find this difficult to understand, it has been extremely difficult to try and explain the absurd situation. This fiasco was discovered when being stopped by the police and being issued with an infringement notice for 52 kph and fine of $183 and one demerit point. To legally fight this

would be a total waste of time for several obvious reasons including expense and time, plus the difficulty of trying to explain the jumble of three speed limits to the court without photographs, colour coded maps and diagrams. Pure logic and common sense should indicate that the aforementioned roundabouts should all have one speed of, say 50, all the way around and to the point of exit. So, watch out!

Councillors pan oyster project On the16 September Ordinary Meeting agenda was the 2021 annual report of the Noosa River Oyster Ecosystem Project. This project, a joint exercise between Noosa Council and The Nature Conservancy Australia, is part of Australia’s largest marine restoration initiative, which aims to improve habitat for fish and marine life, filter the water, and help to keep the Noosa River clean and clear. In fact, the Noosa oyster restoration habitat suitability model has been finalised, as well as the engineering and restoration design specifications. State permits aren’t far away and community participation projects and school restoration awareness activities will be rolled out soon. Councillors Finzel, Lorentson and Stewart voted against noting and accepting the annual report for the second year in a row. Unfortunately, their opposition to this important project shows very clearly that these councillors don’t comprehend how thriving oyster reefs will benefit the health of the Noosa River ecosystem. My confidence in their green credentials sank to zero last Thursday. Julia Walkden, Cooroy

Elephant in the room Have we lost our minds? Australia has the biggest number of solar panels per capita in the world, along with lithium batteries for storage . Ugly wind turbines strewn out over some of our most fertile productive farm land . This is all good for the environment so we are told ,but the devil is always in the detail. Solar panels have a life span of around 25 year. By the way, these panels are being propped up and subsided by our Federal Government with taxpayer money at the expense of our coal mines. By the way, Australian coal is by far the cleanest coal in the world. All well and good to have solar panels, wind turbines, but what happens when the sun does not shine and the wind does not blow sufficiently over a period to keep the lights on and business and industry being able to operate? More discussion needs to be had on what we need to guarantee we remain viable. Common sense tells me that we need to have a mix of sources of energy to remain viable. If not coal then maybe we should be looking at, dare I say it, nuclear energy. Oh, and just in case you think I don’t believe in climate change, you would be wrong. This brings me back to my question, the elephant in the room? When the life span of the panels and turbines expire will we return them back to where they came from, China? Of course not. What then? Will this be another unthinkable problem like the asbestos disaster of previous years? Have we learnt nothing? Silly me, will we dig up our fertile agriculture land and bury them in big holes and, in years to come, create another disaster, polluting our waterways and destroying the land, along with lives and livelihoods ? Surely not. Oh, I forgot, lithium batteries? Let’s not forget the woke climate change preachers who continue to buy up ocean/ waterfront homes with their millions. Sorry

to mention it but what happened to rising sea levels? I guess it’s one rule for them and another for the mere mortals of this world. Do as you’re told, not do as I do. Really. Name withheld, Noosa

Age of contrasts What an interesting contrast of stories on pages two and three of your 17 September edition. Even with great intentions, I’m not sure what hope Cr Lorentson has with her youth advocacy group who are concerned about “cleaning up the waterways, landfill etc ... ” when back on page two, in full view, you are offering a chance to win a $50 voucher to Betty’s Burgers which targets just that age of client, and by the accompanying photo, serves their food in unnecessary takeaway containers. I certainly hope these young people make a go of it - but it’s going to take a lot to change a generation of those entrenched in the throw-away society. Jan Leverton, Noosa Heads

Human conflict Bats have been frequenting this area for thousands of years. They are a most useful species for the survival of many trees, for the balance of nature on this planet. Why do people move into areas that luckily have some wildlife populations left when they don’t appreciate them? Obviously people encroach on bat territory, not the other way round. Bats just mind their own business and in doing so make a contribution to the planet’s survival - which also benefits humans who couldn’t survive without flora and fauna. Some humans don’t mind their own business and while doing so believe they are superior to other species, although human contribution to the planet is disastrous. The council has a responsibility to manage the impact of humans and urban development on wildlife and even more so since it declares the area a biosphere. Angie B, Tewantin

On The Soapbox Councillor Amelia Lorentson

Local Loop outside box At last week’s Ordinary meeting, I challenged councillors to be bold and brave, and to start thinking outside the bureaucracy box. I put forward the proposal to trial turning Noosa Drive to Noosa Parade into a one-way street at Easter 2022 to encourage people to use buses or e-bikes and bring locals back to Hastings Street during peak times. Trial would be subject to business associations and other stakeholder approval. What I said: What’s the point of catching a free bus if it sits in traffic with all the cars? Existing situation is a disaster! What have we to lose? At zero, or little extra cost, we provide an upgraded 15-minute express service to Hastings St. Total travel time from Noosa Junction to Hastings St could be as little as five minutes in the middle of Christmas holidays. I also explained my reasons: The only way we are ever going to take cars off the roads is by increasing bus usage and frequency. The only way we can get locals back into Hasting Street during these peak periods is by giving them easy access. In order to achieve our net zero emissions goal by 2026, Council must ‘support initiatives that accelerate community-led climate action’. And finally, because the future is here and unless we start challenging the status quo and thinking differently, we will be left behind. Albert Einstein said the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. It follows, that if we want a different result, then we must start doing things differently. Let’s find the easiest way to go from A to B and not the hardest way. Let’s treat this trial as

The Local Loop an event, like the Noosa Tri, and not overcomplicate it with engineering reports and studies. I believe that as councillors we have an obligation to our community to challenge the status quo, to do better and think bigger. Or at the very minimum, start the conversation. We simply can’t get comfortable and ride the status quo if we are to move forward. We must talk to our businesses and community and work with them to provide new solutions and new ways of doing things better. Not just in traffic management, but in business, in planning, in destination management. It’s the only way we change our future. The motion although defeated, will be brought to a (councillor) workshop for further consideration. (This is an opinion piece and statements made do not represent the views of Noosa Council).

It’s time to get grid smart Australia is the lucky country, especially when it comes to renewable energy. We have all three of the major factors for utilising renewable energy: an abundance of sun and some of the most reliable winds in the world; access to the most advanced technology; and, even if it sometimes doesn’t look like it, we have a stable political system that allows investment in new energy sources. So it does not come as a surprise that renewables, both on a residential and industrial scale, have been a great success in the past decade. This rise of sustainable energy has not been without challenges for our electricity networks though, and in many ways they have been overtaken by this success. In some areas we now have periods when solar generates more power than we require and our local network is trying to feed electricity back into interstate transmission network. Our electricity grid was originally built for large, centralised power plants and it can only handle a limited amount of supply from other sources. While this may not be an urgent issue yet, our grid is slowly reaching saturation and if we don’t start to use the grid in smarter ways we’ll eventually hit its limits. A smart grid includes shifting our electricity use to times when surplus electricity is available and reducing it during times of limited supply. The basic idea is not really new. Many households have electric hot water sys-

tems that are remotely switched on when surplus electricity is available. Originally this had been used to provide coal power plants with some basic load to keep them running during the night but the network has lost much of this control, because many smart PV owners now control their hot water systems with a timer to charge it with free solar power. Remotely controlled hot water systems have been a great tool to stabilise our network for a long time and with today’s technology and the internet that control can be much more dynamic and sophisticated. Heaters, coolers and pumps can be controlled to use energy when it is available. Batteries can be used to store energy during the day and supply it back to the grid at night and solar inverters can have their output dynamically regulated to supply only what the grid can handle. Many network operators, including Energex, are currently trying these Dynamic Operating Envelopes at test sites with very promising results. The advent of electric cars means there are new challenges and opportunities on the horizon and our electricity network has to be prepared for it. A large proportion of today’s fuels will have to be provided in the form of electricity in the near future and, if not done smartly, this could become a major challenge for our electricity supply. Luckily, electric vehicles come with some built-in solutions too. They can offer a number of grid services by storing

Smart grid technology in development. electricity temporarily and with dynamic operating envelope control they can reduce the load on the network by deferring their charging to times of high supply. EVs have large batteries that can be used to store electricity from our solar systems or the grid during the day and then power our homes during the night. They can even offer backup power for power outages. This service is called vehicle to home/business (V2H, V2B). An extension of this can be the vehicle to grid (V2G) service where large numbers of EVs are managed remotely to use part of their batteries to store electricity during the day and supply it back to the grid at night. Because of the fast response of those batteries, V2G could also provide services to stabilise the network if sudden changes occurred.

Picture: SUPPLIED The technology to make our grid smarter is available today and it’s improving at a rapid rate. It has the potential to increase our use of renewable energy and reduce the need for large investment in the electricity network. But a smart grid will also require smart tariffs to be viable and that is still the elephant in the room. The current electricity tariff structure discourages or even inhibits smart technology and makes it nonviable for the owners of batteries, EVs and solar systems to participate. A real smart grid will have to treat all participants as partners and reward them for their contribution. Check out zeroemissionsnoosa.com.au for more information.

Kallidad back to Eumundi Prepare to be blown away when instrumental trio Kallidad takes to the stage in The Brewery at The Imperial Hotel Eumundi on Friday 1 October. Kallidad combines Spanish guitar magic with rock and roll energy to create a once in a lifetime sound that has seen the group tour across Europe, Asia and Oceania. The line-up is two Spanish guitars and a box drum - but don’t let the lightweight set-up fool you. Kallidad’s sound is big. It’s flamenco and mariachi fusing with metal and hard rock. The trio’s notorious white face paint masks their identities, shifting the focus to a musical style that is alive, intense, emotional, and powerful. Kallidad’s music is all instrumental - no lyrics are necessary to feel the energy and passion behind the music. Booming percussion and shredded nylon string guitars weave a deep web of sound that always leaves audiences breathless and begging for more. This is a live show you don’t want to miss. TICKETS: Presale $25 (plus a booking fee) through Oztix. Pre-sale tickets only (no door sales). It is an 18 plus event. Doors open at 7.30pm.

Exhibitions connect art with research Artistic collaborations between flying foxes and humans, live sound streams from the Amazon rainforest and stories of the traditional custodians of K’gari (Fraser Island) are among the diverse artworks currently on display in two new exhibitions at the USC Art Gallery. Sites of Connection features works by Leah Barclay, Bloom Collective, Donna Davis, Alinta Krauth and Emma Lindsay in response to environmental research. Exhibition co-curator and gallery manager Megan Williams said the exhibition aimed to engage the public and raise awareness of important ecological ideas and issues. “There are many factors threatening the health of our planet, including climate change, extinctions, and environmental degradation,” Ms Williams said. “Research is crucial to tacking these issues. However, sometimes the research can be hard to understand.”

Alinta Krauth’s Bat Interaction uses feeding mechanisms that send signals which create things such as brushstrokes or words when bats do specific movements. Leah Barclay’s Biosphere Soundscapes: Holocene, 2021 is an immersive audio experience featuring sounds from places as diverse as Mexico, the Amazon and the Noosa River. “That’s why the artists in this exhibition are amazing. They use creativity to explore these important ideas and help audiences connect with important topics such as carbon cycles and climate change, soil erosion, wildlife rehabilitation, biodiversity and species loss,” Ms Williams said. The other exhibition, Reading Between the Lines: Uncovering Butchulla History in the K’gari Research Archive, is an audio-visual installation exploring the hidden stories of the traditional custodians of K’gari. It has been curated by Butchulla woman

Rose Barrowcliffe of Gympie, who was recently appointed by the State Government as the inaugural First Nations archive advisor at the Queensland State Archives. The installation is a creative examination of her PhD research to bring to light to the stories of the Butchulla people concealed in the K’gari Research Archive, a collection held by USC which charts the Island’s history from colonisation to its global recognition as a World Heritage site. “Archives can play an important role in truth-telling,” she said. “This curation explores how we can look at these historical collections with fresh eyes to find and record the experiences and perspectives of First Nations’ peoples.” Both exhibitions will be on display until October 30 at the USC Art Gallery at Sippy Downs. The gallery is open Monday to Friday 10am-4pm and Saturdays 10am-1pm (closed public holidays). Entry is free.

Tucker With Trevor Restaurant Review

Cafe you can’t walk past Trevor Pepys reviews Piccolino Italian, Hastings Street Trevor can’t walk the Woods end of Hastings Street without getting teary-eyed nostalgic for the Noosa that was. Or more correctly, the several Noosas that were! Across the decades there have been many establishments, like Little Palmer’s (or Aqua Bar, as it became), Belmondo’s, La Sabbia and so on, that defined the west end of the strip, and the frontier spirit of the town. Trev’s abiding memory from those earlier times is from the height of the 1992 flood, when he, the missus, and Stef Fisher and Leonie Palmer waded from Big Palmer’s to Little Palmer’s, checking on how people were faring, and stopping for a drink at every open door. This was how Noosa faced a crisis – with a thirst! Leonie later wrote of the then-Aqua Bar: “The Aqua Bar has blossomed since we first knocked out the front wall and called it Palmer’s. This is Noosa’s most in-your-face on-thestreet cafe. It’s impossible to walk by it: you must walk through it.” And none of that has changed. So we were in a nostalgic mood the other night, when we parked the car in #2 and made our way to our destination, #10, which once was Li’l Palmer’s, became Aqua Bar and is currently #10 cafe by day and Piccolino by night. But we’ll get to that. First, a pre-dinner cocktail at Miss Moneypenny’s – a site which has its own fascinating history, but that can wait - now the vortex of all things chic and modern, including waiters in tight pants and exposed socks. The missus decided on a La Rivas prosecco ($14.50) while Trev went all the way with a Campari spritz ($19) and knew immediately he should have ordered a cold beer. But when the ice melted enough to let him get at it, the Campari hit the spot, and we mindlessly watched the pre-holiday passing parade while lost in memory. Mood elevated, we sauntered into what Trev thought was Piccolino – a couple of tables downstairs and a few more upstairs in what may have once been Steve Cross’s excellent Saltwater. But we were ushered into the larger, near-empty space that is #10 Cafe by day. We took a table at the rear and listened to the pleasant sounds of minstrel Brad Schultz while we ordered a round of garlic herb bread ($14) and a bottle of the Pasqua Pinot Grigio delle Venezie ($45) to get us started as we considered the mains. The room didn’t stay empty for long, a balmy spring night, some live sounds and a 20 per cent discount for locals! Works every time. We decided to stick with the pasta, the missus selecting the Tagliatelle di Zucca Gorgonzola ($32) while Trev opted for the Gamberi e Spinaci ($32) with an agreement to share. The vegetarian tagliatelle, with grilled pumpkin, gorgonzola, mushrooms in pumpkin sauce, nutmeg and pine nuts, was a massive dish and, well, a little too pumpkiny. No offence to a veg that has served us well over a million Sunday roasts and comfort soups, the pasta just needed a lift in the form of a little spice. Not to mention that during the sharing plate swap, half of it ended on Trev’s dress-up tee shirt. On the other hand, the prawns and panfried spinach, with garlic, lime and pistachios on a prawn and crab ravioli, was a subtle masterpiece. Rustic Italian at its uncomplicated best. Trev had to prise it back off the bride – fortunately very little of it landing on his shirt - and was tempted to order again. The verdict: In the immortal words of the doyenne herself, it’s impossible to walk past this place, you have to walk through it! But why would you walk past? It’s fun, live music seven nights, affordable with the Monday through Thursday locals’ discount, and the food is pretty damn good. Piccolino, 8-10 Hastings Street, phone 5447 3346.

Hook, Line and Sinker Tackle World Noosa

Winds of change blowing Well, here we are again with amazing conditions and strong winds. This is the time of year we can unfortunately expect more winds as we head toward summer. The early mornings are the best time to head out for a fish before the winds kick in. Although not ideal, this will see many anglers explore close reef systems to maximise angling time. From Noosa, Sunshine Reef is great if you have winds which are from the south or south east. This gives you the option to come home with the wind and not get smashed by the winds. This ground is great for drifting and having pilchard floaters out. Anglers who fished this area picked up small cobia and even reports of tuna have showed up. Other fish from the reef are snapper, sweetlip, small tuskies and cod. Bigger boats headed out slightly wider to North Reef and north of there. Smaller jewfish are still around and will take just about anything. If you want to test your abilities, then try slow pitch jigging. We have a pile of slow pitch rods from Oceans Legacy, a range of suitable jigs from Storm and Black Magic. You can choose to pair these up to a spin or overhead reel for a shot at a silver ghost. For more info on slow pitch styles, come in and ask us how. Surf fishing has seen the local beaches get some swell and a good stir up. This will see the fish feeding better than before the swell as the waters are now murkier. Daytime angling opportunities include whiting and bream around the low 30cm range. Nighttime or late in the day is still seeing the occasional tailor and flathead taking medium sized gang hooked pilchards on light gang hooks. If you need wire trace, we carry many pre made options with snaps to help you rig up quickly. The Noosa River has seen a great mix of fish

and the SCF comp last week saw various trevally, undersized jewfish, jacks and flathead. Understanding the best times to catch a particular species really helps you tick it off. We know where to go and have what works so feel free to come in and chat. Flathead are still hovering around the smaller 50cm size but it won’t be long until we start seeing the big girls. Once we get some good rain you can expect to see things change and, as such, bigger soft plastics and diving lures like the Samaki Redic shallow and Rapala Ripstop are great options with a big side profile. Working the flats with these is easy as they are heavier and cast very well. We have the new Shimano Raider and Jewel rods in and there is something for everyone if looking for a new rod. Freshwaters are very clear right now. They are warming up so leaders may have to be dropped if fishing in the middle of the day. Bass have been hanging out in the timber and along the bank edges. There have been a few fish hitting surface lures but be sure you use small options with lots of pauses. The little Sammy 65 is a great lure with many fish to its name. You can also try unweighted ZMan soft plastics on weedless hooks as they float. You can walk them like a small stickbait or just let them sit as bass will often sit just under and study a lure before smashing it. Don’t forget the barra are also waking up, making he next few months a great time to go away and target them. Now for all the latest information log onto 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.

Grathan’s unique double Grathan Leatherbarrow, who these days is just as passionate about hickory golf as the modern game, scored a unique double last week – taking the Cooroy club championship as well as the vets championship. Grathan played steady golf on Tuesday to claim the vets title in a three-man, three-hole playoff – one stroke ahead of Andy Stewart and Keith Harkins. Andy Stewart could perhaps consider himself unlucky. Leading after the first two playoff holes, he pulled his drive on the par five 18th into trees, could not find it, and had to return to the tee to play a second ball. He made a double bogey seven. Then on Saturday, Grathan shot a final round 77 to take the outright club championship by two strokes from overnight leader Lee Grainger. He tallied 306 for his four rounds, compared with Lee’s 308. Buoyed by those victories, Grathan’s focus turned to hickory golf. Grathan and clubmate Jason Norris drove to Brisbane on Sunday to compete in the Queensland Hickory Championship at Brisbane and Royal Queensland against some of the world’s best exponents of old-style traditional golf. Only a few months ago, Grathan shot rounds of 79 and 73 at Cooroy, setting a hickory course record along the way to win the Bobby Jones Trophy – an event contested by golfers using only the old wooden clubs. Paul Korczynski was Cooroy’s B grade club champion, while Bruce McLean took the C grade title. Katherine scores fourth LPGA ace Noosa’s Katherine Kirk made the fourth holein-one of her LPGA Tour career when she aced the 120m 12th in the second round of the Cambia Portland Classic in Oregon at the weekend. Kirk, 39, who made the cut with rounds of 75 and 72 in the weather-affected tournament, used a pitching wedge to record her first holein-one for more than four years. “I put a good swing on it and landed about two feet short right of the hole and released in,” she said. “I thought I hit it too hard but, obviously, it was enough. I was happy to see it go in and not have to putt.” For the hole-in-one, tour sponsor CME Group will donate $US20,000 to St Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Just as importantly, it kept alive Kirk’s chances of finishing in the top 100 of the Race to CME Globe standings, and retain her playing privileges on the world’s richest golf tour. Kirk shot an excellent three-under-par 69 in the final round to finish the tournament 26th on level par. Before the Cambria Portland Classic she was 98th in the standings, having endured a year that falls far short of her expectations. The season, however, extends until mid-November. Runaway win for Rungratree Rungratree Cox, the lowest handicapped player in the field, played four solid rounds to take this year’s Noosa ladies club championship. Rungratree, a nine-handicapper, shot rounds of 84, 84, 83 and 87 to win by 25 strokes from Tash Baker, with Mandy Webb third. In B grade, Sandra Gallagher (395) was the champion, while Dorothy Charlesworth (423) was C grade champion. GemLife hasn’t given up on Cooroy GemLife, the successful operator of retirement resorts whose bid to establish a property on the Cooroy golf course was rejected by Noosa Council, is sparing no efforts in preparing its appeal to the Planning and Environment Court. A group of environmental scientists, contracted by GemLife to prepare reports for the court, recently visited the golf course in preparation for a hearing, expected to be determined next year.

It has also guaranteed 246 new golf memberships (one for every dwelling in the GemLife resort) for a period of 10 years. Championship for club golfers It’s an opportunity for a player of any ability to win a golf championship. All that’s needed is an official golf handicap, a little confidence, and a desire to test your skill on a great golf course. The A, B and C grade championships are played at Noosa Springs over 54 holes from November 26 to 28. They are open to amateur golfers who have a registered handicap – and you don’t have to be a club champion to enter. There is a welcome cocktail party on Thursday, November 25 from 5pm to 6pm, a presentation on the Sunday afternoon, and every player receives a Peter Millar gift pack. For those wishing to stay at Noosa Springs for the event, a series of accommodation packages have been offered, starting at $82 per person per night (quad share). Playing in the championships costs $339 (for visitors), $114 for Noosa Springs’ members and $279 for Links Hope Island members, social and reciprocal members.

I have always loved putting and it dates back to putting on the carpet at home in Taihape when it was too cold outside. I have been a standard grip person all of my life, but quite often in practice I have used cross-handed as a drill. And, if I ever started golf again, I would go with cross-handed. Over the years I have had areas I have had to work on - forearm alignment, putter face alignment and feeling like the putter just doesn’t go back smoothly. Forearm alignment is superior with cross-handed, because the lead hand is the trail hand at setup. Putter face alignment just comes down to training your brain to trust a particular line. Then there is feeling uneasy over the ball, when the putter just doesn’t go back on the intended line. Now that I’ve been cross-handed, putting smoothness has become automatic which is great. What I notice during my round is that the structure of my stroke stays in place. I believe half the PGA Tour winners will have a cross-hand putter grip within 10 years. Two of the best putters in the game Lydia Ko and Jordan Spieth – are already inspiring golfers to change. Players like Paul Casey, Eric Van Rooyen and Xander Schauffele have already benefited from the grip. Get on board and give yourself a month at it, if you can play twice a week, and trust the process. Good golfing.

Noosa Masters swim on By Brian Hoepper Seventy-one years. That was the age gap between the youngest and the oldest gold medallists at Noosa Masters 2021 swim meet. Genesis Aquatics’ Caitlin Cuff (age 22) and Noosa’s own Bob McCausland (age 93) bookended a total of 32 gold medal winners at the meet on Saturday. Noosa’s superb Aquatic Centre came alive as 121 swimmers from 22 clubs battled it out under a perfect spring sky. It was a scene to savour after the disappointment of last year’s lockdown cancellation. The meet also stirred Olympic memories one poignant, the other exquisite. The presentation of the John Konrads trophy injected a celebratory but sad note. The trophy celebrates the life of Olympic legend John Konrads, who died in April. John’s Olympic gold in Rome in 1960 was the pinnacle of a career in which he set 26 world records and held every freestyle world record from 200 metres to 1500 metres. Eventually retiring to Noosa, John became a great friend of the Noosa Masters. Appropriately, the John Konrads trophy was awarded to Genesis Aquatics’ Kim Finch who swam ‘closest to nominated time’ in the 200 metres freestyle - John’s favourite event. A lighter, delightful Olympic connection was forged at the Noosa meet when two state records were broken by the Barbarian Masters’ Jennifer Campbell. Yes, the mother of Olympians Cate and Bronte! Jennifer blitzed the field in two 50 metre events, freestyle and butterfly, to break the age-group records. Much musing on the day ... genetics, grit, perhaps both! Jennifer was joined as a state record holder by Belgravia Masters’ Marsha Reddiex in the gruelling 200 metres butterfly. At day’s end, competitors and officials gathered for a poolside barbecue during which medals were awarded and overall statistics announced. Predictably, Noosa Masters’ large contingent ran away with the trophy for highest aggregate points. And in the competition for ‘highest average points per swimmer’, the powerhouse Miami Masters team secured the trophy. In the hands of Masters Swimming Queensland officials, the meet ran like clockwork. And as Noosa farewelled the visiting teams, Noosa’s president and meet director Ian Tucker was all smiles.

Tom Stewart opening the bowling against Coolum.

TNT four wins from four By Randall Woodley Quote of the Week “It doesn’t matter how pretty you look, what’s important is how many runs you make” Steve Waugh (Australian Test cricketer 1995 - 2007) The season has started positively for the Tewantin-Noosa Thunder Cricket Club with the first grade team winning both their T20 matches on Saturday at Read Park. After two Saturdays of fixtures, the TNT boys are the only undefeated team in the eight-club T20 competition. TNT v Coolum Playing Coolum Sharks in the afternoon, the strong local team was up against a young Sharks team that showed plenty of enthusiasm but lacked experience. This is their third season in First Grade and they will continue to improve each season. Batting first, the TNT openers showed they were after a big score and the first wicket did not fall until the 10th over on 77. Chris Wright was at his devastating best hitting 59 off 31 balls including nine

fours and three sixes. The score finished on 3 for 170 off the 20 overs with contributions of 43 not out from Lewis Waugh and 27 from Jarrod Officer. After the break the Coolum boys did their best to ward off the fast bowling from the TNT’s opening trio but found the going tough. They were eventually bowled out for 76 in the final over. The wickets were shared around, with Scott Aufderheide, Ben Laughlin and Dom Taylor taking two each whilst Lewis Waugh took 3 for 7. As well as the solid batting and the very effective bowling, the other outstanding feature of the afternoon was the excellent fielding and catching of the TNT team. This will be an asset for the club as the weather becomes hotter and the competition moves to the two-day format later in October. TNT v Maroochydore The match was played under lights commencing at 5.30pm. TNT won the toss and, following on from their solid batting earlier in the day,

set about building a strong platform against their arch-rivals, the Maroochydore Swans. The Swan’s bowlers, as always, were online but the local boys were still able to score at about seven runs an over. After 20 overs the scoreboard read Thunder 4 for 149. All the batsmen got starts with the top scorers- Blake Steel 36 off 37, Lewis Waugh 36, Chris Wright 25 and Andrew Kratzmann 23 not out. The task now was to limit the Maroochydore batsmen to less than six runs an over. As usual the Thunder’s opening bowlers were up to the task and even though the Swans kept up a good run rate, they lost wickets along the way. Their opening batsman, Callum Stitt was the main thorn in the side for Thunder and scored 54 off 39 balls before being dismissed by TNT’s captain, Jake Dennien who finished with the figures of 3 for 21 off his four overs. The Swans finished the night on 6 for 134, 15 runs short of the target, giving Tewantin-Noosa four wins from their first four matches in the T20 competition.

Summary The strength of this season’s Thunder team is showing already in the T20 competition’s statistics. TNT have the four of the top eight wicket takers in the matches played- Ben Laughlin, Scott Aufderheide, Jake Dennien and Dom Taylor. They also have four of the top eight run scorers so far in the season- Chris Wright, Jarrod Officer, Lewis Waugh and Andrew Kratzmann. These stats show that all is going well for the long season ahead with plans well under way to bring home the season premiership.

Croquet competitions continue in Noosa By Colin Hindson As Covid restrictions ease, the latter part of the Sunshine Coast interclub croquet competitions are nearing their conclusion, and Noosa Croquet Club teams are holding their own. As well, internal competitions continue, and it has been a busy few weeks for those who taking part, including the referees. It is good to see the Noosa Association Croquet team (competing jointly with Coolum Croquet Club as Cooloosa) in the lead in the Lockwood Shield, the Association croquet competition, with no further games to play. Well done to Noosa representatives, John Olsen and Galina Makarova. In the golf inter-club competitions, it is getting tight with only a couple of games left. The shield team, the medium handicappers, competed on Monday 6 September against the Caloundra team, and won six games to four. Best player on the day was Richard Bawden who won all three of his games, two singles and a doubles. This leaves the shield team in second place not far behind. On Monday 13 September, the pennant team of low handicappers, played against the Nambour team, always a strong opponent. This resulted in an 8 -2 win to Noosa, which keeps Noosa in striking distance of the leaders, Headland-Buderim, with two games to play. Best player on the day was John Dark who won both his singles and the doubles. On the same day, the plate team of high handicappers played against Nambour

at Nambour and went down narrowly, six games to four. The newest member of the team, Lois King, in her first competitive event, went very well, going down narrowly in both her singles, but sharing a win in the doubles. This should leave the plate team on top of the ladder with two games left. The finals of the internal Jan van der Linden Golf Doubles competition were concluded. The Division 2 doubles competition was very close, the leading teams were all separated by only one hoop, but the winners were Sally Walker and Bob Eames. This was a great win, as Sally and Bob have not been playing very long, but have improved their games dramatically.The winners of the Division 1 doubles competition were John Dark and Ed Boyd. Again, both players are relatively new to the club and it is good to see them achieving success, particularly John who seems to get in a lot of photos. This was also a close win, the three teams involved were all level on games won, and the final winner was decided on hoops. The club’s annual budget meeting will be held on Tuesday 28 September - the Club is in a sound position and membership is solid, although we are always looking for more members. The club grounds are looking good as spring continues, the grounds are a scenic place to be on play days. We always welcome visitors to our grounds at 9 Seashell Place Noosa Waters, and remember, every Sunday morning is a come and try morning - just drop in and say hello. Winners of the Division 2 doubles competition, Sally Walker and Bob Eames. Friday, 24 September, 2021 NOOSA TODAY 45

Great weekend for Noosa It is once again that time of the year, that time when championships and grand finals become the order of the day. And for the local Noosa sporting fraternity, it has been full on. First of all, came the results of the Australian National Oceanic Commonwealth Masters Championships (weight lifting) held in Cairns. This is now rated as an international event. Then last Saturday came the rugby union grand finals and on the same day, the U/18 rugby league finals. Add to this, also over that weekend, came the Queensland Amateur Boxing Championships, which saw a team of six of our local Impact Boxing Academy, travel to Acacia Ridge Tavern in Brisbane, to contest the titles. It was indeed, very pleasing to note the number of Noosa teams and athletes involved in these sporting events. In Cairns, three members of the Noosa Barbell Club, Wendy Campbell, Jo Phillips and Scott Mark, represented their club and all three came home with gold medals won in the Snatch, Clean and Jerk event. Wendy, who competed in the F71kg, 60-64 age group, won with a Snatch of 37kg, Clean and Jerk 41kg for a total of 78kg. Scott Mark won with a Snatch of 81kg, and a Clean and Jerk of 100kg, giving him a total of 181kg, a life time PR. Jo Phillips made it a clean sweep for the Barbell team winning his event with a Snatch of 54kg and a Clean and Jerk of 76kg, giving him a total of 130kg: also, a personal PR. All medals were in the Australian Nationals/Oceanic Championships/ Commonwealth masters. Speaking of the event, head coach Woogie Marsh said, “It has been a tough build up for the Noosa Barbell team with Covid cancelling the event a couple of times. The crew had a slightly altered prep but put up some fantastic weights and came home with the gold. For the club, we are super proud of our teams’ efforts and stoked that they could bring home the club’s first international titles’. Phillips and Wendy Campbell have since applied to the AWF (Australian Weightlifting Federation) to compete in the world masters next year in Japan (or online). The AWF worked tirelessly with local and international weightlifting to develop online options for international and local competitors who couldn’t attend the competition on site. While it was different to usual competitions, it is something we need to get used to in these times of Covid. When some of our local athlete win medals in a sport that, despite being international, plus also a major drawcard at the Olympics, (and not wearing football boots), it is only right that their sport should get the recognition due. For the Ray White Noosa Dolphins, Saturday’s grand final day is surely one to remember. “With four teams playing grand finals, Colts, Women’s, Reserves and A grade, and winning three of the four, it definitely speaks volumes for the club, but most important of all, our future,” said president Donald McKill. In the first half of the Colts grand final against Maroochydore, heavy windy conditions saw both teams miss kicks. Noosa scored first from a kick, but then Maroochy tied the game, also with a kick. After the break, Noosa made good use of the stiff breeze with captain Leo Langbridge and vice-captain, Michael Cutcliffe, beginning to call the shot and take control: final score being 13-8 Noosa. To see Noosa lift the premiership trophy was indeed gratifying after a long hard season. The second final of the day was between Noosa and Caloundra women’s and, like the Colts, it was a tough first half with the score being level on the break. Two tries by Naiomi Tomlinson and tries from Jett Fairfax and skipper Tess Evans saw the Dolphin ladies in a 2417 lead in the final minute. Then Caloundra scored a seven-point penalty try, to make it 24 -24. However, Noosa was awarded the trophy as they had finished the regular season top of the ladder. Definitely a strange one for the record book. With the Dolphins then holding two pre46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 24 September, 2021

Captain Jay Moffatt and vice -captain Yvahan Allsworth had the leadership required to get them through a tough game. In a bruising encounter, both sides were eager around the ruck and maul. However, Noosa came out on top to win the trophy, 10-6. The A grade final saw Noosa take to the field against the favourites, University, a team that beat them twice in the last two weeks. The game was a ragged affair with both teams struggling with windy conditions, plus a heavy penalty count that favoured neither side. It all came down to the final play when Noosa thought they had scored in the corner to take the trophy, however, the referee did not agree and Uni took the win and the trophy, 10-6. In the words of Noosa president Donald McKill, “We have achieved a fantastic result overall, with three wins from four games. We also extend our congratulations to Uni on a game well played. As of now, we will have a few weeks off before hosting the club champion-

ship sevens tournament at Dolphin Oval on the 13/14th of November, details of which will be released shortly.” For the Noosa Pirates Rugby League u/18s, it was the first time an u/18s team had made the grand final for many a long year. It was, however, not their day. Playing at Sunshine Coast Stadium Kawana for the premiership, a poor first half saw them on the back foot and, despite a very spirited second half, the gap was too wide. “On looking back, it has definitely been a big improvement on last season and, above all, the performance from some junior teams definitely gives the Pirates a good indication of what we can achieve next season,” club manager Brett Winkler said. In the world of amateur boxing, a team of six from the Impact Boxing Academy Cooroy travelled to Brisbane to contest the Queensland championships and once again it was a successful tournament. With 80 bouts over three days, the Australian Olympic boxing coach Kevin Smith, who was in attendance,

was very happy with the performance of Boxing Queensland, the people responsible for the running of a smooth tournament. “With teams coming from all over Queensland, our organisers were indeed very happy with the outcome,” said Boxing Queensland president Mark Evans. ‘’I also offer my thanks to all who made the tournament a success.” Our team from Impact Academy consisted of the following members and their weight division: Ciara Storch 57kg, Erie Cartier 69kg, Keanna Welsh 60kg, Paige Robinson 63kg, Slade Gray 38kg and Cohen Robinson 54kg. From this team of six, five girls and one boy, they came home with five gold and one silver medal, indeed a great overall performance. The next major tournament will be in Mackay on 16 October and will be a Southern Queensland vs Northern Queensland event. Indications are that some members of the Impact Academy could make the team. We wish them well.

Carissa’s trademark gouge.

2021 world champions Gabriel Medina and Carissa Moore.

Pictures: WSL

Medina takes to the air.

The world title showdown It’s hard to fault a sporting format when it produces the result that the best in the world win the world titles, but here goes. The World Surf League’s Rip Curl Finals Series, held on the best day of the season at Lower Trestles, California last week was a spectacle worthy of missing a night’s sleep to watch. Interrupted only twice by a random shark patrolling the trademark cobblestones, the action just kept coming in solid, clean overhead conditions, with each heat on the road to the titles more intense than the previous. The airs got higher, the gouges deeper. It was the best day of high performance pro surfing I’ve seen in a long, long time, and I’ve seen a lot. But here’s the rub. Going into this debut finals series after a Covid-shortened season, Brazil’s Gabriel Medina had a virtually unassailable lead in the rankings. In 2021 Medina had the best start in his career, reaching the final in the opening three events on the men’s championship tour. He gained a significant lead over the rest of the field when he won the Rip Curl Narrabeen Classic and the Rip Curl Rottnest Search, his first event wins in Australia since the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast in 2014. Love him or loathe him, this was Gabby’s season, and if Trestles had simply been the final event of the season, nothing would have stopped him taking the title. As it was, he had to battle a rampaging Filipe Toledo over two heats to officially claim his third world title, something he couldn’t help but mentioning in his post-heat interview. “I already won the world title, but if they want me to surf another two heats to officially win it, no problem, that’s what I do,” he said. For once, he wasn’t being arrogant, just truthful. It could have gone the other way, but Medina kept raising the bar, and his countryman had no answers. While Hawaii’s Carissa Moore didn’t have Medina’s huge lead coming into the finals series, she did have an Olympic gold medal, the rankings lead and the fact that she was reigning champion on her side. Carissa had been the most consistent surfer on tour this season and the only person to reach the semi finals or better in all seven events. The five-time world champion had finished third or better at every CT event since the 2019 Margaret River Pro, and 2021 marked the 10th consecutive season that Moore has won more than 20 heats, the longest streak in WSL history.

SurfGroms having fun. None of this mattered a damn when she hit the water at Trestles in the first of a best of three heats final against Brazil’s Tatiana Weston-Webb. Carissa looked strangely uncertain, out of rhythm and even a bit wobbly, while the Brazilian smashed big swooping backhand turns into the lip over and over again to take the first heat. Carissa was just two good waves away from her opponent from ending her assault on the record books. And Tattie would have got there, if Kelly Slater on commentary is any judge. He claimed she was underscored by more than a point on her best ride, and although I don’t like her style much, I tend to agree. Commentator Chris Cote noted: “I haven’t heard any criticism of the format since we started today. It’s just great because it means that to win a world title you have to consistently be the best in all conditions to get here, and then the pressure is on.” Well, agreed the pressure was on Carissa, but in fact an upset would have proven the opposite – that you can be the best all season and still lose. But Carissa was not to be denied, fighting back strongly in the second and then taking the decider convincingly.

Picture: SURFING AUSTRALIA Of the Australians in the mix, only Sally Fitzgibbons managed to advance, smashing France’s Johanne Defay in the second round after Defay had punished Steph Gilmore in the first, in which Steph looked out of sorts. In the men’s, tour rookie Morgan Cibilic looked overwhelmed by the occasion, and disappointingly ended an incredible debut season by going down easily to California’s Conner Coffin. So, what to make of the final series experiment? It was exciting, no two ways about it. Was it fair? Potentially, no, but in the end the two most deserving surfers won. It’s hard to argue with that. SurfGroms are back The Woolworths SurfGroms program is making a welcome return to Noosa, with the Go Ride A Wave school presenting this great value introduction to our sport over the school holidays. The four-day program of 90-minute lessons adopts an approach to learning that uses group-based games to not only equip kids with the skills they need to surf, but also to encourage their participation by having fun.

EVERYONE’S A WINNER PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY A PICTURE-PERFECT auction weekend with outcomes to match for Tom Offermann Real Estate agents. On Saturday, Nic Hunter’s listing of 8 Witta Ccl, Noosa Heads, attracted multiple virtual tours and Facetime during the campaign. On the day registrations included two from Brisbane, a local wishing to upgrade and Sydney buyers with friends who lived here. They researched the property and ultimately gave their blessing. After spirited bidding, the Sydneysiders were jubilant with the purchase of their $6.4m Bahamas’ inspired residence on Noosa Sound. It was also a win at the Rebekah Offermann-listed apartment 8 Hastings Park, 81 Hastings St, Noosa Heads. There was strong interest throughout the campaign with many Facetime inspections and existing database clients considering Proudly Australian Owned & Independent noosatoday.com.au

A four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car waterfront house with pool, jetty, at 41 Shorehaven Dve, Noosa Waters, is set for auction at 11am on Wednesday, September 29. 250871

the sage investment opportunity. Three registered bidders had their fingers crossed, and the hammer fell at $7.1m to happy interstate buyers who cannot wait to return to Noosa Heads and enjoy their new apartment, also dinner at Sails. Co-incidentally the launch campaign for apartment 5 Hastings Park has commenced. SUNNY SUNDAY A sunny Sunday and the winning streak continued for Rebekah Offermann of Tom Offermann Real Estate whose co-listing with Peter TeWhata of 52 Ferguson St, Sunshine Beach, enticed a crowd of more than 60, which sprawled out on the pavement. There were three Brisbane registrations plus a phone bidder from interstate who after exciting bidding purchased the residence under the hammer for $3.25m. NORTH SHORE OUTLOOK It’s just gorgeous. It has an island atmosphere with north-facing pool that gets the sun all day. Rebekah Offermann and Tracy Russell of Tom Offermann Real Estate are taking a five-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-car house with pool at 44 Arkana Dve, Noosa Heads, to auction at 11am on Saturday, September 25.

“An extensive renovation has just been completed, in and out,’’ Rebekah said. “It’s in a leafy residential zone - there’s a lot of openness over greenery - and you can see the North Shore. “It’s ticking a lot of boxes ... private, tropical vibes, multiple living areas. “There’s good separation of bedrooms with two up and three down. A brand new kitchen and bathroom.’’ The property would suit a large family or extended family, Rebekah said. Interest has been primarily from families but not all wanting immediate occupation and looking to move further down the track. “It’s a genuine family area and those that live there love the community.’’ LONG WATER VIEWS In a good location with prized northerly aspect over the water, a four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house, pool, jetty, 41 Shorehaven Dve, Noosa Waters, comes with pool and jetty. Offering single-level living with long water views, it has been attracting strong interest in the lead-up to auction on Wednesday, September 29, at 11am with Adrian Reed and Darren Neal of Reed & Co. There have been lots of locals expressing interest, Darren said, and from interstate.

Many have friends inspecting for them due to Covid-19 lockdowns in the southern states but realistically it is better to have virtual tours. With a secluded tropical front yard, this waterfront home is positioned next to parkland and north-east facing. WATERFRONT OPPORTUNITY There has been good, solid inquiry on a cleared 612sq m waterfront property at 31 Dolphin Cres, Noosaville, that goes to auction Saturday, October 2, at 1pm. Nic Hunter and Rebekah Offermann of Tom Offermann Real Estate have been getting interest from those looking for waterfront property in Noosa Waters and Noosa Sound but the market has been too much for them to get deepwater access. “What Dolphin Cres offers is aspect,’’ Nic said, “especially with sunsets. “People are questioning, do I really need a jetty at the front or live on The Sound? “This is a great place for stand-up paddleboards, kayaks ... a place where you can still pull a tinny up on the river bank or slipway.’’ Within walking distance to Quamby Pl and the cafes as well as the riverfront precinct in Noosaville, there is a 22.6m frontage to the river. “There are some quality homes in what is a nice residential area,’’ Nic said. “You don’t many opportunities for a cleared block in the Noosa Sound precinct.’’ INDOOR/OUTDOOR LIVING Richardson & Wrench Noosa have a strong auction campaign under way with a variety of properties listed, from Hastings St apartments to Noosa Sound waterfront homes. Gillian McCauley and Kym de Warren had more than 100 inquiries on 103 Noosa Pde, Noosa Sound, in the first week of an auction campaign that culminates on Saturday, October 16, at 1pm. Taking in 180-degree water views stretching in both directions, the waterfront five-bedroom, four-bathroom, two-car pavilion-style house comes with pool, jetty and boat ramp.

HOME FOCUS

IDEAL LOCATION AND LIFESTYLE EASY to be infatuated by the serene, private, and prestigious location, surrounded by nature reserves, so close to cafe-centric Noosa Junction, a 10-minute walk to Noosa Main Beach, and a sophisticated townhome gem which scales the height of desirability. Fringed by palms, the white timber exterior is reminiscent of the tropics. The aesthetic continues indoors. Raked ceilings, which follow the shape of the trusses and beams, plus a glass ‘cut-out’ in the shape of a diamond, and drench the over-generous open plan living and dining spaces with natural light, are standout features. Similarly Palm Beach-inspired are polished Tasmanian oak floors, copious plantation shutters, VJ-profile walls and a bright white palette with seascape images, nautical accessories, splashes of aqua and pops of pink. The undercover terrace on the westerly side flows in a seamless fashion from the living area, runs the width of the townhome, and looks over the residents only pool. The C-shaped kitchen with blue bricktiled splashback, neutral cabinetry, and premium appliances, has all the hallmarks of creating dishes for easy lunches as well as intimate dinner parties. In the north-east wing, the master bedroom with a built-in robe, ensuite and skylight, has a verdant outlook. Downstairs is white tiled, and all about laidback living with a hideaway bar/ kitchenette, sliders out to a courtyard, and paved pathway to the rear garden. Fourfooters are not forgotten with a special doggy-door. Two bedrooms with built-in robes share a large bathroom, while another option for entertaining is the terrace, or maybe just relaxing as the children play in the low maintenance garden, where there also a gate leading to Noosa Drive. “This is a superb townhome in a very popular street,” says Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eliza Coppin, “and it has been designed to perfection by incorporating the core fundamentals of what can only be perceived as the perfect Noosa lifestyle. “The location is also first class. It is so close to Noosa Junction’s many bars and cafes, a cinema complex, supermarkets, boutiques, and four-footers will love Pinaroo Park. Transport links include private and public schools, sporting clubs, the Noosa Aquatic Centre also beaches such as Sunshine.” Facts & Features: Land Area: 223m2 House Area: 210m2 About: one neighbour; aircon/fans; Panacon security/intercom/video; downstairs
