Elite line-up Triathlete Ashleigh Gentle will be vying for her eighth Noosa Triathlon win when she lines up against a 14-strong women’s elite field on Sunday. The 30-year-old is preparing for her first hit-out since the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games in July. “My preparation’s been going well, but to be honest it was a bit of a slow start after my two weeks in quarantine in the Northern Territory,” Ashleigh said. Like so many other triathletes the Noosa Triathlon, now in its 38th year, is an annual pilgrimage for Gentle, and a highlight on the calendar. “Each Noosa to me has been unique. I feel like that familiarity of Noosa Tri is something that is always nice,” Ashleigh said. “I love it so much and it always helps me find motivation no matter how my year has gone beforehand, so I really like that about it.

After more than nine months facilitating a surf safety roundtable, Noosa Council last week decided that it was time to step back and let the surfing tribes of Noosa seek their own solutions to problems associated with our overcrowded surf breaks. The surf safety roundtable, established last January after a hectic holiday season, was originally a joint initiative of Noosa World Surfing Reserve and Council, conceived as a short-term series of meetings at which stakeholders from all of the surfing disciplines could plan a strategy to combat safety and behavioural issues as Noosa’s popularity as a surfing destination continues to grow. As well as Council and the NWSR, founding members included representative of Noosa Boardriders Club, the Noosa Malibu Club, Noosa Heads Surf Lifesaving Club and Maritime Safety Queensland. Under the chairmanship of Council CEO Brett de Chastel, it soon became obvious that the job at hand was bigger and more complex than first thought. For starters, several of the people at the table were at loggerheads, but Mr de Chastel’s gently methodical approach

Members of the Noosa Surf Community Alliance. began to sort out the issues and personalities and start to map a pathway forward. Council’s facilitator at the roundtable, Community Development Officer Cheryl Pat-

Picture: SUPPLIED terson, said after the final meeting at the Pelican Street chambers: “We did a recap of how we formed and what we have achieved and where we are headed as a group. Everyone

agreed the roundtable has provided an avenue for open communication for all surf craft in regard to a number of issues in the Noosa surfing community and a chance to form a bond through everyone’s love of the water, their craft and where they live.” The roundtable members decided to call themselves the Noosa Surf Community Alliance (NSCA) and move forward as a working group that will meet approximately every three months to consider issues and emerging themes within the Noosa surfing community, with a major focus on surf safety and behaviour change across all codes. “The Alliance will work alongside the Noosa World Surfing Reserve and work collaboratively on projects that benefit our surfing community and surfing visitors to the region,” Ms Pattison concluded. A big part of the roundtable’s work in 2021 is an over-arching voluntary code of conduct that applies to all of the surfing disciplines, with a secondary code specific for each discipline, from longboarding to hydrofoiling, from ocean swimming to kite-surfing. A signage and media campaign is in the final stages of development for release this summer.

Rare and beautiful By Donna Jones It’s all systems go as Gympie Rotarians prepare to present one of South East Queensland’s largest quilting and crafting events this weekend along with the Club’s Ancient Crafts, Rare Trades Expo here in Gympie in the Pavilion and Showgrounds. Organisers, the Rotary Club of Gympie, are thrilled that this year, the benchmark has reached a new high, with the addition of the ABC Landline “Quilt of Memories” and the debut showing of an historically significant vintage quilt, created by the members of the Gympie community in 1893. Special exhibits also include a 100-year-old European table runner and two major works by renowned freeform artist Prudence Mapstone, one being an interactive 6m long crocheted “tunnel”.

Quilts for display have been collected from as far as the Gold Coast to Chinchilla to Bundaberg - and all the areas in between, including impressive works from our local crafters. The task of cataloguing these contributed quilts, patchworks and art-quilts falls to quilt convenor Liz Dixon, who has spent many hours for the past two weeks spread-sheeting the details of every one. “We have received so many outstanding quilts this year” she says, “many with a story on life in Covid times,” she said. Concurrent with the Quilt & Craft Spectacular, the Club’s Ancient Crafts, Rare Trades Expo will surround the Pavilion, having outgrown it’s previous location. The Bob Henshell Dairy Pavilion and horse tie-up stalls will be converted to a “marketplace”, a forum to celebrate the heritage trades

and domestic craft of our past. Over 40 demonstrating artisans will gather over Saturday and Sunday, to demonstrate, to share their passion and knowledge of their craft, to preserve the longevity of their trade and take it into the future. It promises to be a weekend filled with non-stop demonstrations, vintage displays, artisan markets and lots of good old-fashioned camaraderie...and a tasting of some craft beer, the age-old art of brewing - another essential craft! The event will be open from 8.30am to 5pm Saturday, 30 October and 8.30am - 3pm Sunday 31 October. Tickets are available at the entry gate, opposite Southside store, for $8 per person per day.

The editor’s desk Teachers thanked in art It’s shaping up to be a massive weekend in Noosa. The Noosa Tri will bring thousands of competitors to town as they swim, cycle and run. Watch out for the road closures that have been signposted around Noosa and cheer them on as they race past. If you’d rather avoid the Tri the lovely hinterland town of Cooran will be enveloped by artists as the annual Tall Trees Art Exhibition takes over the street. Wandering the street to see the diverse range of art on show is a nice way to wile away a few hours. For those with children Queensland will celebrate World Teachers’ Day today. It’s officially held on 5 October but as that falls during school holidays it’s celebrated a little later here. Covid has brought a new appreciation of the role of school teachers and the work they do, especially from the parents who were forced to juggle home schooling with work and day to day activities. To mark World Teachers’ Day this year the more than 100,000 teachers across Queensland will be acknowledged through art when artist Rachel Burke today unveils a stunning installation, the ‘Garden of Gratitude’. The artwork is the result of a statewide competition to create Queensland’s largest teacher thank you. Rachel said she thought back to the teachers who inspired her and would be forever grateful for the guidance they gave her and the belief they had in her. The Garden of Gratitude will be on display at Brisbane Powerhouse this weekend.

Homelessness simmering By Margie Maccoll It took only three days for Integrated Family and Youth Service (IFYS) to set up a 40-bed crisis accommodation hub on the Sunshine Coast when they were tasked with the project after Covid hit in 2020. Organisation spokespeople Clare Hughes and Dan Rowe said Sunshine Coast Council identified a need because of the pandemic to “get homeless people off the streets”. After just a few phone calls a self-contained centre that normally accommodated visiting sport competitors was located. All its bookings had been cancelled due to Covid and it became the ideal solution. The hub now provides accommodation for 60 people, all referrals from the Queensland Department of Housing, who are linked to a range of services to provide access to health care, employment services, financial services and assist with securing permanent housing. Dan said the hub may become a “flagship for the future” of homeless accommodation but acknowledged their efforts were just scratching the surface in terms of providing a solution for the homelessness. “I think it’s a bigger issue than most people on the coast realise,” he said. On Tuesday 15 service agencies came together at Tait Duke Cottage at Tewantin for a Housing and Homelessness Roadshow to assist people impacted by the housing crisis. Visitors were able to wash their clothes at Orange Sky mobile laundry, have their hair cut, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee provided by the Australian Red Cross or sausage sizzle supplied by Tewantin Noosa Lions Club, pick up

The demand for services was huge and increasing. Rents and house prices are on the rise, making housing increasingly less affordable and housing stocks are low. This year as Coast2Bay Housing Group celebrates its 30th anniversary, representative Bec Grisman said the service was growing - “sadly”. They recently established a new program, Better Together Housing, aimed at facilitating shared accommodation for women over 55 years, who, she said, were a growing but largely unseen homeless group in the community. Women who find themselves without a job,

their marriage has broken down or they’ve used up their accommodation are ending up homeless. “They stay with friends, in cars. They don’t tell anyone they have no house. They live in constant fear of living on the streets,” Bec said. “I met one woman the other day who is house sitting for friends. She hasn’t told anyone she has no house. She just hopes she gets another house to sit. “They are people not used to asking for help “We suspect the people who access the service are the tip of the iceberg. We have very few houses in Noosa but we get a lot of inquiries.” St Vincent De Paul representatives Geoff

Lee and John Harrison said there were wonderful agencies offering help but the demand for support, for food, for finance, for housing was “incredible”. “We’ve given up trying to find people housing. We try to keep them in tenancies. If they leave a rental they can’t get another,” they said. Aussie Tiny Houses founder Fabio Paulucci said he established his company to support social housing programs. Having discovered the concept in the US about a decade ago Fabio identified the need for tiny houses in Australia. Fabio said his customers had until now been private with governments being slow to adopt the concept. However after raising $200,000 Youturn Youth Support service has invested in two Aussie Tiny Houses which, in a partnership with Noosa Council, will be sited on land next to Tait Duke Cottage to provide short-term accommodation for two families. Fabio said the houses had now been completed and were waiting for offical sign off before being moved onsite. Youturn spokeswoman Antoinette Lloyd said they expected their first families to be in the houses before Christmas. Antoinette praised the roadshow for bringing together the services and making access easier. “So many people experiencing homelessness now never thought they would, never had to reach out for support,” she said. “For Noosa Council who have been very involved it’s about showing commitment to the community. We know it’s an issue. We’re trying to find better ways to address it.”

Cooran opens up for art By Margie Maccoll Oprah Winfrey bought one of Tio Kurun Warun’s paintings after he played the didgeridoo at her birthday party. Pierce Brosnan, the Prince of Saudi Arabia and the Vatican are among others to have also acquired his art. Having lived at Pomona since 1988 this is the first year the Indigenous artist, a member of the Guntijamara tribe, has become involved in the Tall Trees Art Exhibition in Cooran. Tio was always destined to follow a life in the arts. His mother was tutored by artist Clifton Pugh in Fitzroy, Melbourne, where Tio held his first exhibition at the age of eight years, and musician Archie Roach is his uncle. An accomplished musician Tio said his paintings of places and plants from his mother’s country in Warrnambool had been exhibited across the country and internationally.

In addition to displaying his art Tio will play didgeridoo at the Tall Trees closing ceremony on Sunday morning. This will be the fourth year Michelle Kurth has exhibited her art at Tall Trees and her third year as event secretary. Moving from London to Couran in 2018 with her Australian husband Michelle began volunteering with Tall Trees in her first year in the country and hasn’t left. Michelle said the exhibition was encouraging for all artists from first time exhibitors to those who had been doing it for 30 years. A graphic artist Michelle’s medium is textiles and her craft is weaving which she does using a range of materials from traditional yarns to plastics. Her recent work, Ignite, made from chip packets, was the winner of the Flying Arts Queensland Regional Award for Textiles 2021.

Police are appealing for witnesses after a woman was confronted by an unknown man in her bedroom at a Maroochydore home on 18 October. The 26-year-old woman had been asleep in her unit on School Road when she awoke to a man attempting to indecently assault her in her bed around 4am. She immediately pushed him off and he fled from the residence. The man is described as young, possibly aged in his teens, Caucasian with dark coloured hair that was short at the back and sides, around 188cm tall with a slim build. The man was wearing only dark blue boyleg style underwear. It is unknown how he gained entry to the unit, however possibly via an unlocked door. Police are appealing for anyone who may have seen anything suspicious or have dashcam vision in the vicinity of School Road at the time of the incident, before or after 4am, to come forward.

Sharing the respect Yandina man Good citizenship will be rewarded as much as good surfing at the inaugural Noosa World Surfing Reserve Awards Night, to be held at the Noosa Surf Museum next month.

NWSR stewardship council president Kirra Molnar told Noosa Today: “Noosa became the tenth World Surfing Reserve in 2020, covering the world class point and beach breaks from the river mouth to North Sunshine Beach. Our

motto of Share. Respect. Preserve. encapsulates the goal of NWSR to preserve surf zones and their surrounding environments and, by recognising and protecting the key environmental, cultural, economic and community attributes, to ensure that they are around for future generations. “There are a numerous people who contribute to these goals within the local community, and the NWSR stewardship council would like to publicly acknowledge these wonderful contributions at the NWSR Annual Awards on Saturday, 27 November.” The Awards and NWSR Summer Party at the Surf Museum will raise funds for the Surf-

ing Reserve’s stewardship programs, including completion of its defibrillator (AED) coverage of Noosa’s outer bays, and the installation throughout the Reserve of “life-rings” or rescue tubes. Noosa Boardriders Club couldn’t wait another month to donate, with president Paul Peterson kicking off the fundraising by presenting Kirra with a $1000 donation towards the life-rings.

Twinnies to stay put By Margie Maccoll The Twinnies, Paula and Bridgette Powers will remain on the Sunshine Coast to continue their rescue and rehabilitation of pelicans and seabirds from their Landsborough base. In response to an overwhelming call to stay, the twins and their mother Helen Power have shelved plans to relocate and plan to find funds to purchase their rented three acre property. After 10 years at the Landsborough property the landlord decided to sell when their lease ends next July, giving them first option to buy. Helen said the response from the public led her to abandon plans to relocate to South Burnett where property was less expensive and to instead plan to purchase their rental property. “People were begging, ‘please don’t go’” Helen said. “I don’t think the Sunshine Coast can do without the Twinnies. “They really put everything they’ve got into the birds. “There are some darn good carers on the Sunshine Coast but no one else really specialises in sea birds. The girls really do put their heart and soul into it. I’ve seen some miracle work the twins have done. They just love every creature.” Bridgette and Paula are quick to respond to a call to help pelicans and seabirds in distress from Noosa and Gympie to Brisbane and no matter how challenging the rescue of a sick or injured bird they “never give up”. The “Twinnies” are widely known for their dedication to their feathered friends and uncanny ability to act as one. They provide expert care and much love to numerous pelicans and seabirds as well as the many land birds that are brought to them, and seek professional medical assistance from Australia Zoo, RSPCA or local veterinarians when required.

Helen asked the Twinnies what they’d do it everything went pear-shaped and they were adamant they wouldn’t be going anywhere without the birds. She said despite their financial woes Paula and Bridgette faced every day with a smile on their face. “They never complain, and with their ailments they have every reason to complain,” Helen said. Helen said the twins would require surgery early next year for an ongoing health problem that concerned her greatly. “I lost a daughter to the same problem Bridgette and Paula have got. But we’ve come 20 years ahead in medicine since then,” she said. Helen said the Landsborough property on which they have built their sea bird centre would cost $700,000 and they would need to raise about $400,000 before the lease runs out to secure it. She said she would be investing her own money toward the purchase of the property but was also financing the food and upkeep of birds and hoped for donations to assist in the care of the birds. “It’s going to be a very big expense,” she said. “If I can help the girls anyway I can I will. If the public love them that much the public should get behind them.” “The people who own it have been pretty good,” Helen said. “We have first agreement on it. We’ve got to wait and see what happens.” Anyone wanting to help the Twinnies Pelican and Seabird Rescue centre can donate funds through their website at www.twinnies. com.au. Volunteers are always needed to help with the care of the birds and visitors are welcome to see the centre through their conducted tours.

Pink day for the survivors Ladies from the Noosa Golf Cub came together on 21 October to help raise funds for Breast Cancer Research by playing in their Pink Ball Breast Cancer Golf Day. Close to $8,000 was raised on the day due to the generosity of local businesses and people through sponsorship, cash donations and prizes for the various raffles and silent auction. Thanks go to major sponsor Bridgestone, Diana’s Shoes and the Tewantin RSL and to the major monetary contributors who wished to remain anonymous, Ladies president Alice Cumming said. “The ladies got into the spirit of the day by dressing in pink and while Breast Cancer is a cancer that touches many of us, the spirit on the day was to also celebrate the survivors and the lives of people we’ve lost, as well to show our support for those currently battling this illness,” she said.

Lisa Joseph, Jess Fleming, Rosanne Chisholm and Cindy Lawson came second in the golf competition.

Veterans get moving A series of wellbeing events sponsored by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs recently took place around the Tewantin-Noosa area as part of Veterans’ Health Week. The events were coordinated by exercise physiologist Freya Simmonds and physiotherapist Chris Mallac at the Noosa Springs Resort Fitness Centre. All events were designed to improve veterans’ general mental and physical health, fitness and overall wellbeing. Impending inclement weather did not prevent a mixed group of veterans to carry on and enjoy a wide variety of low impact water exercises at Noosa Springs Fitness Centre, targeted to improve overall fitness, joint and body movement, that were not too taxing and above all fun. On Wednesday, veterans participated in a solid session of mobility and stretching exercises that built on Monday’s initial hydrotherapy event. This was followed by lunch at the resort and an excellent presentation by Chris Mallac on structure, pain, function and pain management. Each participant was given a resistance band, trigger point ball, stress relaxation ball, contact details and general information on

Open Arms support services and a program of exercises to continue at home after the event. Friday saw another good roll-up of participants who enjoyed a 3.5 kilometre walk along Noosa River and then engaged in rugby ball handling and reaction time skills followed by a well-earned coffee and a group chat. “The general consensus from participants following event reviews and feedback indicated it had been a great week,” Department of Veterans’ Affairs Mens Health Peer Educator Lew MacLeod said. “All participants thought that the general structure, organisation and delivery of each event by Chris and Freya aided the Veterans in seeking to improve their overall health and fitness both now and in the future. “Hydrotherapy classes are to continue at the Fitness Centre on a weekly basis and Veterans’ will continue to use the equipment purchased for the Veterans’ Health Week events. “The most pleasing observation was that esprit de corps, mateship and inter-service rivalry was still alive and well despite the passing of the years.”

Businesses among best By Abbey Cannan Local finalists in the Sunshine Coast Business Awards, including Tewantin Noosa RSL, Youturn Youth Support, and RACV Noosa Resort, have celebrated their successes at a cocktail party at Noosa Springs Resort. Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart said the calibre of businesses in Noosa was outstanding. “Considering the challenges over the past two years, the success stories are exceptional and it fills me with enormous pride to see so many Noosa businesses in the mix to be recognised at the Sunshine Coast Business Awards gala event later this month,” she said. Tewantin Noosa RSL general manager Julie McLaws said it was an absolute honour to be a finalist in the social impact category. “Typically, you would think we would nominate for a hospitality category, but we wanted to showcase that we are more than a hospitality venue,” she said. “Over the years we have supported our local veterans, community groups, children’s sport, people with disabilities and the community at large. In the past five years we have made total community contributions to the amount of $1,982,863. “We are a community Club, and our main focus is to support our local community. If you or your organisation are needing assistance you can find our community support application form on our website or contact the club directly to get it emailed. The Community Support Committee meet on the second Wednesday of every month to process applications.” Youturn Youth Support chief executive officer Dr Tanya Bell said their team was also thrilled to be a finalist for the social impact award. “For us as a not-for-profit organisation, we always challenge ourselves to be responsive to what is happening in our local community,” Dr Bell said.

We’re not about all our accolades, it’s about what the people get from us.” Dr Bell said the housing crisis in Noosa was a major issue that Youturn had been focusing on since 2019. “It’s a huge issue across the nation that people aren’t able to find affordable housing,” she said. “We’ve pulled together organisations and donations from across our community sector to fund two tiny homes and we have people

Agnes Water boom times By Phil Jarratt

1770 sunset. await the 2021 census release, locals quote reliable sources, such as police and post office, at an estimated current permanent population between 5000 and 6000, rising to total population of 10,000 during peak holiday periods. “Don’t call us the new Noosa,” one of the town’s leading businessmen pleaded with me last week. “The only thing worse than that is the new Byron Bay. We’re nothing like either of those joints. In fact we’re what people from

those places are escaping from!” Still, the town fathers are by no means oblivious to the “loved to death” factor, and to the strains on infrastructure created by such a fastgrowing population. I’ve yet to hear anyone mention “population cap”, but growth of Agnes/1770 is restrained by national parks to the south and north of the town limits, and semirural single-dwelling allotments kick in about 15 kilometres down the only road in and out.

But from our beachside retreat, the birdsong gets drowned out by bulldozers every morning at seven, as dozens of commercial and residential construction teams go to work. Already happening or slated to start soon are two over-50s resort villages and a 2000 square metre Stockwell shopping centre, with the interest of two retirement resort developers prompting Queensland Health to look for a site for a 12 to 15 room hospital.

Few people were surprised when Noosa took out the Queensland Tourism Industry Council’s Top Tourism Town award six months ago. Noosa was, after all, slap-bang in the middle of a Covid tourist boom that still lingers. But eyebrows were raised when the QTIC sister award for Top Small Tourism Town went to the remote coastal resort of Agnes Water, an hour and a half north of Bundaberg on the Discovery Coast. Not that the many charms of Agnes and neighbouring Town of 1770 hadn’t been noted over the years by the tourism cognoscenti: it’s just that since it first made a tiny blip on the tourism radar several decades ago, it’s seemed like the perpetual bridesmaid, never the bride. Frequently dubbed “the new Noosa” by over-excited visiting media, this little slice of paradise has instead had to endure seemingly endless cycles of boom and bust, not to mention bushfires, floods and a series of body blows as a sightseeing plane crashed, killing one passenger, a day-tripper boat servicing Lady Musgrave Island caught fire and sank, and a fishing trawler claimed the lives of six local men when it sank in Bustard Bay. Tourists stopped coming, the bottom dropped out of the real estate market and the permanent population dipped below 2000. All that doom and gloom had begun to turn around by 2019, with a surge of new residents escaping the rat race, and a steady uptick in visitor numbers. But with the opening up of statewide travel for Queenslanders after the initial Covid lockdowns of 2020, the Discovery Coast was suddenly awash with sea-changers, bucket listers and box tickers whose travel options looked limited for the foreseeable future. Seems everyone had heard of Agnes and 1770. Now they wanted to experience them. Local tourism operators reported 100 percent increases year to year for 2020-21 and the trend has continued.

Refurbished iconic site By Abbey Cannan Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart has officially cut the ribbon to open Noosaville’s newest iconic development at 195 Weyba Road. The launch of the recently refurbished iconic Seven Flags building highlighted how two local businesses, Team Body Corporate and Stay Property Group, can work in collaboration and harmony to create economic, environmental and social value for the communities that they provide services to. Both of these businesses are Noosa based and the building developers, Marianne and Andrew Davidson, emphasised the importance of maintaining the buildings heritage and history and were delighted to have an original Seven Flags employee at the launch. Stay Property Group general manager Liam Kennedy and principal seller Liam Anlezark said they raised $10,350 in a charity auction on the launch day, with profits set to benefit local disability charity Sunshine Butterflies. “We would love to say thank you to all our generous sponsors and the community for getting behind the event,” Mr Kennedy said. “This money is going to benefit all the members of this amazing charity and we cannot wait to partner with them again.” “Thank you to everyone who braved the questionable weather, namely Noosa’s very own Mayor Clare Stewart, who cut the ribbon officially open the Seven Flags building at 195 Weyba Road, Noosaville,” Mr Anlezark said. “Also thank you to Noosa MP Sandy Bolton, Karen Finzle and Andrew Fairbairn for attending the event and making it a special day.”

Teacher gets back to class Noosa District State High School’s longest serving teacher, Elizabeth Garbacz, visited a Year 11 Social and Community Studies class on Monday to share her insights into the teaching profession. Recently retired Ms Garbacz was a drama teacher and head of department at NDSHS for 40 years, as well as a student of the school and the parent of three children who also attended the school. Ms Garbacz made an astonishing contribution to the school and was integral in the 50 year celebrations of the school, held two years ago, which helped many past students reconnect with former peers and teachers. The student services department at the Cooroy Campus was able to set up restorative practices and the management and fine-tuning of the uniform and behaviour policy with Ms Garbacz’s firm, but kind attitude to rules, routines and procedures at the school. Ms Garbacz was influential in shaping NDSHS’s behaviour management and uniform policy; she was heavily involved in

school musicals and the performing arts faculty; she coordinated ski trips; and provided support and assistance to students in her role as Head of Student Services. “Noosa High has been such an important part of my life,” Ms Garbacz said. Ms Garbacz’s three children followed in her footsteps, all completing their secondary education at the school, as their mother did. Words of wisdom and advice were shared by Ms Garbacz, who told the students some of the life lessons she took on as an educator for 43 years. “What we do as teachers is so important in sharing and guiding our young people,” Ms Garbacz said. The students were privileged to take on board her abundant wealth of life and teaching experience, knowledge and expertise, which she also shared throughout her time at the school. Ms Garbacz advised the students to always look for opportunities to keep learning, developing and becoming better people.

In addition to the money raised in the charity auction, Team Body Corporate donated $1000 to Sunshine Butterflies as part of a guess who’s coming to the Neighbourhood. They also presented $500 to the lucky winner of the competition.

Auctioned for charity Residents of Noosa Domain Country Club held an auction of donated goods from fellow residents in conjunction with a Soup Night on Thursday 30 September to raise money for two local charities. The Thursday Girls and Katie Rose Cottage were joint beneficiaries of Domain resident’s generosity, each sharing equally in $2,300. For

The Thursday Girls charity, the amount will pay for about three student support grants. For Katie Rose Cottage, it supports hospice services. The Domain Social Group organised the Soup Night and Auction to entertain while providing a night of much good food and camaraderie. The auctioneer moved nearly 100 donated items, which changed ownership in

aid of the two charities, in nearly three-hours of spirited bidding. Domain Residents committee liaison Mary Abbey and Social Group chair Alan Hall heralded the night as a great success filled with fun, drinks and hearty fare which primed the 70 attendees in spirited out-bidding between friends.

The auction ‘call’ for near new goods was generously supported with artworks, kitchen appliances, garden equipment, haberdashery, craft works and collectables. Sotheby’s it was not but auctioneers Peter Sydes and Bob Eames generated lots of good humour and generosity as participants ‘kicked the can’ for two very worthwhile Noosa charities.

Waste action at Noosa Earlier this year, Kyall Parris-Smith needed a second chance. A series of events and decisions left him out of work and in real trouble. He chose to pay off his debt through community service. For Kyall, the opportunity started with community service with local reuse shop Reviva Noosa; a part of social enterprise Resource Recovery Australia (RRA). Plenty of hard work from Kyall led to a paid position. “Even when I was doing my community service, I really enjoyed waking up in the morning and coming here,” he said. “I got to learn new things, to talk to other people here. I always love to come here to be honest. “When I found out that I had got the job, I was stoked. Even though I got myself in trouble, they’ve given me this opportunity to get myself back up. I think that is amazing of RRA.” Reviva Noosa Manager Mitchell McIntyre said, “Kyall was doing community service on the weekends. The team kept telling me what a great fit he would be if a position became available.” “Kyall showed great work ethic, commit-

ment and has put in the effort to turn his life around.” Since joining the not-for-profit social enterprise last month, Kyall has worked across the organisation’s operations at Doonan. “Our business model is ‘Waste to Wages’. We divert waste from landfill to create employment and training opportunities,” Mitchell explained. “Kyall has been learning to recycle mattresses, price items in the reuse shop, take donations from residents and has worked in reclaim to divert waste from landfill.” Noosa Shire Council Waste Coordinator, Ian Florence said, “Stories like Kyall’s are the reason Resource Recovery Australia won the contract. They facilitate real opportunities for locals.” The future is looking bright for Kyall as he continues to learn and grow in his role. “Kyall is using his existing skills to create upcycled furniture from pallets. We’re proud of his skill development already,” Mitchell said. “In the future, Kyall will follow our development pathway and secure his test and tag certification, first aid and forklift ticket.”

They warn that the transition back to normal will not be seamless. There will be challenges and complexities to new world wide restrictions that may be difficult to navigate. “There has never been a more important time to invest and see the value in using a travel advisor,” Natalie said. There will be heightened demand to travel as Australians prepare for the joy of travel again. “Travel has undoubtedly become complicated and support with human connection is required more now than ever before.” To have a trusted travel advisor on hand when overseas, is simply invaluable.

One sweet addition By Abbey Cannan Noosa’s newest iconic patisserie opened at Noosa Village Shopping Centre and the business, Sweet Story, began just as the name suggests, with a line of customers out the door and their cakes selling out. Since she was a tiny girl, Dora Kovacs knew her calling. For the past 10 years Dora has worked as a pastry chef in Melbourne, baking with love for several European-style restaurants and cafes to finesse her skills in Greek, Italian and French desserts. Dora relocated to the Sunshine Coast with her partner a year ago just as the pandemic began and she began her own cake business, which led to a decision to open a store and dedicate her day to her creations. “Ever since I was a little girl, I was always obsessed with baking and creating in the kitchen with my mum and nan. They were my first teachers and now I enjoy experimenting with new recipes, fresh ingredients and flavour combinations,” Dora said. “I believe that baking is about expressing your imagination and sharing your love with others, so I bake with my heart and soul, putting all my good vibes into my cakes. That’s the secret ingredient in my desserts.” Dora’s business partner, Tibor Kegye has more than 25 years’ experience in food service and was equally excited to open their boutique cake shop in the busy retail centre. “My career began studying at a prestigious hospitality and tourism college in Budapest, where we had to learn most subjects in multiple languages, including German, English and Hungarian, and I had summer placements in historical hotels, restaurants and patisseries throughout Europe,” Tibor said. “I have since worked for hotels, resorts, cruise ships and cafes across the world - you name it. “I especially love coffee, so for the last 12

Our STEM champions aid health Entering into the BCE STEM MAD (Make a Difference) competition was a logical choice for a group of St Teresa’s Catholic College STEM students. The competition provided a platform for students to solve a problem and make a difference using their Science, Technology, Maths and Engineering skills to create a solution. The group of four students, Joseph Hillier, Andrew Fisher, Niklas Schuck and Ella Rolley identified the difficulties teenagers are facing in mental health, especially in speaking up and letting someone know they weren’t okay. From this they created an app that allows students to let their teacher know that they are struggling, enabling those who may not have the confidence to speak up a discreet method of asking for help, through their App. A school spokeswoman said the judges were very impressed with the team’s ability to identify a very real problem in many schools and innovate through a simple but effective solution. They were particularly impressed by the student’s ability to present their journey and showcase their working prototype. Ultimately these aspects led to the team being recognised as winners of the Secondary Category of this year’s BCE STEM MAD Showcase. The team will now represent our diocese at the National Catholic Schools Showcase event online in mid-November.

A top report A former Noosa student has taken out a hotly contested category at Queensland’s premier journalism awards with a story about the state’s youngest drag queen. ABC news reporter Rachel McGhee, who graduated from USC with a Bachelor of Communication in 2016, won the Regional and Community - Broadcast Report category at the recent 2021 Queensland Clarion Awards. The judges said her original story, Golden Age of Drag, had a profound impact, giving a voice to then 13-year-old Ipswich teenager Logan Kelly and challenging the stereotype of drag queens in a regional community. The judges said Ms McGhee’s ability to convince the talent to share their sensitive story, and the respectful way in which it she told it, had set her story apart from other entries. Ms McGhee, who attended St Teresa’s Catholic College at Noosaville, said she was thrilled with the win and the public reaction to the story. “I knew it would get a bit of kickback from the more conservative people in the commu-

nity, but it also received a lot of positive feedback,” she said. “On social media, people were just so excited for Logan and what he’s doing.” Ms McGhee said when writing the story, she focused on being sensitive to Logan and the topic in general. “Logan is amazing. I could have run the whole story as his interview because he spoke so candidly about what he’s going through.” She said USC’s Journalism program coordinator and lecturer Dr Jane Stephens had been a great mentor during her studies at USC. “I think it was the ethics and journalism class run by Dr Stephens that really stuck with me and where I figured out what journalism was about and how to go about it the right way,” she said. Dr Stephens said Ms McGhee had produced an outstanding story to receive a Clarion award, which attracted an extraordinarily high standard of entries. She said Ms McGhee had been “a dynamo” as a student.

Technology on the move: Robot lizards win USC comp A PhD student developing bio-inspired robot lizards to better understand animal movement and apply the knowledge to the needs of industry has won the annual USC ThreeMinute Thesis competition. Johanna Schultz 25 of Maroochydore was judged the best of six finalists in the annual competition where students must verbally present their research within 180 seconds. The presentations were judged online and on campus. Ms Schultz explained how her bio-inspired robotics research involved building

and programming lizard-inspired robots that could climb walls, by adapting elements of animal locomotion. “With these robots we can study why today’s lizards are so successful at climbing, but we can also recreate the unsuccessful strategies of lizards that have gone extinct,” she said. “The knowledge about optimal gait configurations we gain from these studies could be applied to technical applications in industries such as space exploration. “We basically take advantage of the work done by millions of years of animal evolution.”

Ms Schultz will compete in the 2021 AsiaPacific 3MT Semi-Final Showcase to be announced on 13 October. Second place in the USC competition went to Brisbane’s Tengfei Yi of USC’s Forest Research Institute, who discussed the potential for using oxide nanoparticles to protect treated timber against discolouration from UV radiation exposure. Third placegetter was education researcher Sandie Elsom of Little Mountain, who is studying how alternate reality games can enhance and support students’ learning in

higher education, using a USC course as a case study. The People’s Choice winner was Amanda Boyes of Bli Bli, whose research at USC’s Thompson Institute is investigating how an under-researched part of the brain called the caudate relates to mental health in adolescents. USC Graduate Research School Dean Professor Stephan Riek said: “The Three-Minute Thesis competition is a great opportunity for our PhD students to communicate the impact of their research. We had superb presentations from all our finalists.”

The Guide PICK OF THE WEEK PARENTAL GUIDANCE Nine, Monday, 7.30pm

TARONGA: WHO’S WHO IN THE ZOO Nine, Friday, 7.30pm

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work in a zoo? To see the animals up close in their enclosures without fighting for viewing space with schoolchildren? No? Well you might after watching this fascinating observational documentary series that’s returning this week. After five years of planning and more than $60 million, Taronga Zoo’s African Savannah Precinct is ready to home its new residents. Problem is, the giraffes are a stubborn bunch who aren’t all too keen on being herded anywhere. Then, keepers examine the zoo’s largest eight-legged arachnids.

When it comes to parenting, most of us are just doing our best. After almost two years of disruption and uncertainty, this revealing series couldn’t be more auspicious. Some of us might feel like we could do with a little help, while others will take satisfaction seeing other parents insist their way is superior. No matter your opinion, there’s one thing that can be agreed upon as you cringe your way through this new series: these 10 sets of parents are incredibly brave. Hosted by Allison Langdon and parenting expert Dr Justin Coulson, get ready to cover your eyes as their different parenting methods are judged.

GRACE Seven, Sunday, 8.30pm

GOING COUNTRY ABC TV, Tuesday, 8.30pm

Based on the bestselling British crime novels by Peter James and written and adapted for the small screen by Endeavour’s Russell Lewis, Grace is a character and twisty plot-driven whodunnit wrapped in a satisfying feature-length package. Here, the second book following Brighton detective Roy Grace (John Simm, pictured) comes into focus, titled Looking Good Dead. Grace and Branson (Richie Campbell) grapple with two unconnected murders: a drug overdose and human remains found in a field. With 18 novels and counting in James’ Roy Grace series, we could be in for the long haul. It’s a taut and satisfying case.

This warm two-part travelogue, with Justine Clarke in the driving seat, hits all the right notes. Clarke, who is as much at home entertaining children in The Justine Clarke Show! as she is acting in an indie drama such as Tangle, showcases her charm and versatility again in a road trip to explore and understand Australia’s country music traditions and history. Meeting some of the country’s most beloved musicians, she also discovers how country music was the wild child of its time. Tonight, Kasey Chambers performs the country ballad Wild Colonial Boy with her dad Bill, and Paul Kelly pays homage to this homegrown country music hero.

Child’s play: Parental Guidance hosts Dr Justin Coulson and Allison Langdon.

From Peter to ‘Kuruvita’ PHIL JARRATT concludes his profile of master chef Peter Kuruvita

erything that was offered, including snake and cat.” In London Peter’s ambition was to learn from the best, so he started with the legendary Roux brothers, Michel and Albert, who’d had string of Michelin-starred restaurants since the 1960s, and he managed to find work at both le Gavroche and the Waterside Inn and develop a relationship with Michel Roux that lasted many years. Says Peter: “Michel married an Australian and whenever he came here he’d come to my restaurant to eat my mud crab. He just loved it. But Albert was a hard man, he’d work you 100 hours a week and not allow you to speak. Often at these top restaurants they wouldn’t pay you. You had to go and beg for your money. Eventually I decided to aim high and applied for the job of head chef at a little restaurant called Stanton’s in Clapham. We started to get into the guide books and people loved what I was doing, which was simply what Greg Doyle had taught me.” When he finally made it back to Australia, Peter made a pact with himself never to work for the same boss twice, so when Greg Doyle phoned and offered him the job of head chef at his new restaurant, Pier, he had to politely decline. Doyle said he understood the logic and would recommend him to others. Peter recalls: “Five minutes later Neil Perry rings and says he’s opening Bluewater Grill and wants me for head chef. I’d never met Neil but I said yes, and I was there for the building finish and I stayed for six months. Then Michael McMahon, who I’d met at Rogues when he was wine director for Len Evans, came into

FUNDING GRANTS The Noosa Heads Surf Lifesaving Supporters Club hereby call for submissions for Funding Grants and Sponsorship assistance.

Bluewater Grill one day, invited me to lunch and offered me the job of head chef at Barrenjoey House in Palm Beach. That place was crazy and I loved it. “Working for Neil, this pony-tailed Australian guy who’d never been to Europe or Asia and he’s cooking French food with an Asian accent, got me thinking about experimenting with Sri Lankan food. I started to add Sri Lankan flavours into what I was cooking at Barrenjoey House. That was the beginning of my own cuisine.” Later, as chef at Bilson’s after Tony Bilson had left, Paul and Linda McCartney were among the many celebrities Peter cooked for. Linda was so pleased with her speciallycooked vegan dinner that she sent Peter a signed copy of her latest book. The inscription began, “Dear Tony…” Says Peter: “That was when I realised no one knew me, so I hired a really good public relations consultant and soon everyone knew me.” Including big time TV producer Henry Crawford, who also happened to own a Fijian boutique island resort called Vatulele, which needed a new executive chef. This turned out to be the first joint appointment for newly-married Mr and Mrs Peter Kuruvita, with Karen taking over as assistant manager of the eight-bure luxury hideaway for the rich and famous. Says Peter: “I created the menu every day based on what we’d caught. I’d literally be out on the boat hauling in the fish and Karen would be ringing me to ask what to put on the menu for dinner. All the guests would sit at the one table and I’d walk past

After two years at a restaurant called Crab Apple in suburban Sydney, cutting his teeth alongside a chef named Scott, who smoked while he cooked, resting his ciggie next to the hot plate between drags, young Peter was ready for a change. He answered a two-line classified ad for a chef and found himself searching for a doorway in a seedy lane off Riley Street in the city’s east. Instead he found two young chefs lounging on the bonnet of an Alfa Romeo Spider, surrounded by the empty bottles and debris from the night before, waiting for the boss (the owner of the Spider) to arrive. Peter joined them. “Finally the boss arrives,” Peter recalls, “and he opens the door into this kind of wonderland.” This was his introduction to the world of Greg Doyle, then the hottest chef in Sydney, and to Rogues, the pleasure palace that lay behind the door in the alley. Anyone who was a player in Sydney in the early 1980s knew Rogues, and everyone knew Doyle, who ran the excellent dining room within the club. I worked around the corner, and spent far too much of my salary behind those heavy doors, but for a handful of years it was the place to be. Says Peter: “I was still an apprentice but this was when I really started to learn my craft. Greg was one of a handful of Sydney’s best chefs. Tony Bilson had Bon Gout going, Anders Ausback had The Yellow Book, Mark Armstrong had Pegrum’s, Peter Doyle had Reflections at Palm Beach. And I did ‘em all! I’d do Friday lunch with Mark, Sundays with Peter up at Palmie and a couple of nights a week at Rogues. It was an incredible couple of years. I moved into a flat in Bondi with a couple of other chefs and we had a constant party.” But young Peter also took his trade seriously, which appealed to the luminaries he worked for. He says: “I think I began to do well because I had such a good work ethic, and for that I thank my parents. I was also talented as a chef and I progressed through the ranks quite quickly. Greg [Doyle] has the reputation as one of our best seafood chefs, but at Rogues he did it all. There were only three of us in the kitchen so we’d each do a bit of everything, and the food was just brilliant.” But in a high-end kitchen, temperaments rule, as Peter found out. “We’d do 90 a night and Doyley would be screaming at us. He was a pot-throwing screamer. He’d burn you on purpose, or give you a full-blooded boot up the arse if he thought you weren’t working fast enough.” In the days when celebrity chefs were just becoming a thing and egos were out of control, apprentice abuse was common and the wages were appalling, but somehow Peter had managed to put enough away to travel every year, usually exploring South East Asia or heading back to Sri Lanka. He recalls: “The day I finished my apprenticeship I was off to London, but it took me a year to get there, backpacking through Asia for most of 1983. In China I learnt to eat ev-

them with a big fish over my shoulder to get it to the kitchen to cook it.” After the island experience, Peter felt ready to open his own Sydney restaurant. With the help of an investment from dad Wickramapala (who sadly died shortly after its opening), the Kuruvitas created Avalon at Bondi, where he hired an apprentice chef from Noosa. (Today, Nathan Nicholl is, like Peter, a food industry entrepreneur as well as a chef, and the two will be working on projects together at Alba.) Next came an offer from a business consortium to lend his name and talents to a restaurant called Flying Fish. Peter, who naturally asked for a piece of the action, recalls: “It was a handshake deal and of course it ended badly. But for the time it was Sydney’s most beautiful restaurant. I had complete control and I brought in the top chefs I’d worked with everywhere else. We opened with a bang and the Good Food Guide gave us two hats the first year. Hotel scouts came to look and see what the fuss was about. One of them represented Starwood Hotels who were then rebuilding the Sheraton Fiji. So we opened up Flying Fish Fiji.” With three best-selling cook books and half a dozen TV food travelogues appearing simultaneously, the Kuruvita brand had well and truly arrived when Peter had an offer from Blackstone, the new owners of the Sheraton Noosa Resort to do a Noosa restaurant. Says Peter: “I was trying to build a restaurant in Mexico at the same time, so it was a bit of a juggle, but we got Noosa Beach House finished in time to open on the first day of the Noosa Food and Wine Festival of 2014. We were still living in Sydney, close to the airport, and I suddenly thought, what am I doing? We could be living in Noosa. We packed up our two vans with the motorbikes on the back and drove up. “We fell in love with Noosa. It’s a chef’s paradise. You’ve got all the produce of the hinterland and the sustainable fisheries of our ocean. There were hiccups along the way, but Noosa Beach House was where my Sri Lankan influences reached their pinnacle. I’ve said all along in Noosa that my bread and butter is the locals. The tourists come and go, but if the locals like you, you’ll never be empty.” This is the philosophy that Peter and Karen are taking into ALBA By Kuruvita, within the Parkridge complex on the shores of Lake Weyba at Noosa Heads, as Peter writes in his press release: “It is really exciting to be building a new venue again from the ground up. I wanted ALBA to have a diverse range of offerings - something for everyone!” As we conclude our long conversation in the shell that will become Alba, Peter says: “The vision for Alba is a community hub, it belongs to the 700 houses in this precinct. Whether it’s coming to the providore to buy milk or having a big night out at the restaurant, I want it to be a place that locals will call their own. Snapper curry has been my bestselling dish for more than 20 years, so that will definitely be on the menu. And the black pepper prawns. Let’s says the accent will be modern Australian with a Sri Lankan twist.” ALBA By Kuruvita is expected to open its doors in early December.

LETTERS NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Climate talk child cruelty It was with some dismay that I read the article about the School Strike 4 Climate event in Noosa Today. What dismayed me most was how Dr Graham Ashford and others continue to make our children fearful. A considerable amount of misinformation about our present federal government supposed inaction on climate change was supplied. Of course the children would not have been given inconvenient facts. Facts such as 1. Australia is a world leader in the installation of solar panels and wind turbines subsidised by many billions of taxpayer money. 2. The world’s temperature as measured from space has decreased over the last seven years. 3. Australia has reduced its emissions and met its targets better than most of the other countries Dr Ashford has listed. I can give other examples where Australia is being very responsible about the environment. I personally have no doubt that climate change alarmism has done enormous damage to our country and can quote some highly credentialed people who also think alarmism has gone too far. However the most damage has been to our children, in the way they have become frightened by the future. Before Covid child psychologists were reporting a spike in children presenting with anxiety symptoms and almost universally climate change was their major concern. Then there was the 14 year old girl, shown on TV a number of times, attending a Climate Change Protest on a school day (presumably with the permission of her parents and teacher). This girl was inconsolable and sobbing hysterically and all because some supposed expert was saying that if we didn’t “do something” the world would be doomed by 2032. When the Covid epidemic struck many of these children then had to contend with lockdowns, no school, loss of peer contact and play time. It is well documented that there has been a recent big increase in mental problems, self harm and suicide with Covid being blamed. Don’t tell me that these children weren’t “softened up” by Climate Change hysteria. Dr Ashford, Kevin Rudd and others - you are entitled to have your opinions on climate and politics but is it really necessary to use children so cruelly to achieve your objectives? John Havilah, Noosa Heads

Climate scare-mongering Following on the heels of the latest IPCC doomsday report and prior to the Glasgow climate catastrophist’s extravaganza...I can see where this is going. Children are about to be exposed to more scare-mongering concerning climate change. It’s a pity they’re not taught that climate is regional and weather is local and how the Milankovitch orbital cycles play a major role in the Earth’s climate. Under the guise of a ‘Race to Zero Program’, I’ll bet the kids are not going see any data of energy required to produce a single wind turbine (made in China) costing around $2.4m, the smelting of steel and manufacture of its parts, shipping, distribution, installation and average output over the period of its lifespan. Oh, and not forgetting its disposal thereof. Teachers should not forget to instruct and inform their students of the manufacturing processes of solar panels (made in China) and the extremely high temperatures required to melt and shape the main ingredient: silicon.

LENSCAPE

Michael Donovan took this recent snap of Noosans enjoying a river sunset. If you have a Lenscape please email to newsdesk@noosatoday. com.au And not to overlook the manufacturing process of associated auxiliary equipment such as inverters, monitoring equipment and kilometres of cable runs. All this energy for manufacture has to come from somewhere. But wait, shouldn’t students also be aware of electromagnetic radiation/energy being consumed, but more importantly, being emitted by their portable communication devices? (Let’s call it WiFi for simplicity’s sake). So, do these energy meters measure electromagnetic radiation? Probably not, is my guess. ‘Race to the Bottom’ is what it should be called. Brian Ford, Noosa Heads

Climate quick fix In Canberra, ‘Team Australia’ are popping the champers to celebrate their new ‘technology not taxes’ climate change policy. The corks will be sent to farmers to bung up the rear end of their cattle, thus stopping methane gas emissions. How good’s technology? Margaret Wilkie, Peregian Beach

Covid comments The letter headed ‘Dissatisfied’ (NT, 22/10) has been written by an anonymous person who has not been following what has been happening worldwide. The Worldometer website - ‘Coronavirus Live Update’ - gives daily updates on the pandemic. It directly contradicts most of what has been asserted in the letter. The deaths per million in the US and UK on the 22/10/21 were 2,260 and 2,036 respectively. Australia, by contrast had experienced only 61 deaths/million. The letter was right in praising the Prime Minister for closing Australia’s borders, but

wrong in other assertions. Because our Premier closely followed the advice of our Chief Medical Officer, Queensland has only experienced 7 Covid deaths, and Queenslanders expressed their gratitude for her strong actions, including border closures, in the last state election, as did the people of Western Australia, where border closures also kept people safe. It is the concerted efforts of our state premiers that have given us these low deaths/million figures. They would have been considerably lower if the Federal government had not opted for hotel quarantine, but had instead moved rapidly to set up quarantine facilities in every state. At present, 20 months after our first case, they have still failed to do this, although by April of last year the hotel quarantine system had already lead to hundreds of deaths. More than half of our total covid deaths. The letter correctly mentioned that we are a long way down the list of OECD countries in vaccine delivery. According to Crikey, PwC, a consulting firm, pocketed $11 million from advising on the government’s botched vaccine rollout. In fact it has been up to the states to organise vaccine delivery, but they have been constantly hampered by supply shortages of the Pfizer vaccine, which has been universally recommended for people under 40. The Prime Minister failed to take up the first offer, from Pfizer, of this vaccine, in spite of other nations having readily done so. He also failed to contact Pfizer to organise adequate supplies after the event. In fact it was an ex-prime Minister who got the ball rolling on this by directly contacting the company. As for hospital funding, Tony Abbott, in 2014, cut $1.8 billion over 4 years from hospital funding, and subsequent LNP governments did not make up the shortfall. Given our population increase, our hospitals were stretched to the limit in pre covid times, and desperately need the federal government to pay their fair

share now, because it is our public hospitals that have the facilities and trained ICU and critical care staff, to treat chronically ill covid patients. Joy Ringrose, Pomona

Get priorities right Last weeks edition (NT, 22/10) to my mind had two quite disturbing articles that really defied logic and rational thinking. The first was the “quiet strike for climate change”. These poor kids are being sociallisticly brainwashed into believing they will either fry, drown, be blown away or save up for a long flight to nice safe distant planet. To rope in a year 11 student to read a diatribe from the worst failure of a Prime Minister this country has ever had is insane. Meanwhile a large proportion of our secondary kids struggle with basic writing, grammar and arithmetic. The second continues with the same theme but this time the Council, in all it’s wisdom, is wasting ratepayers money on “energy meters”. Really? What about solar panels and windmills in the gardens. Arn’t they supposed to save mankind? Meanwhile the toilet block at the end of world famous Hastings St. is a putrid disgrace. A few days ago the men’s was worse than what I’ve seen in India and Pakistan.it stank, the trough was overflowing (flush was’t working) and with the triathlon setting up across the road the council funding priorities again became crystal clear.

Expressions of interest are now open for local volunteer, veteran, emergency service, and sporting groups to apply for grants of up to $20,000. “The Liberal and Nationals Government is providing $150,000 through Round 7 of the Stronger Communities Programme, to assist with small-scale upgrades and new equipment purchases and help local community groups in Wide Bay help others,” Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien said. Grants from $2,500 up to $20,000 are available to cover up to 100 per cent of eligible project costs, or up to 50 per cent of eligible project costs for local government bodies. “This latest funding injection will support up to 20 projects in Wide Bay, supporting jobs and delivering an economic boost while strengthening social connections, building community participation and delivering a brighter and more vibrant future for our local communities,” Mr O’Brien said.

Expressions of Interest for the Stronger Communities Programme Round 7 (SCP Rd 7) are open now until 5pm, Tuesday 9 November 2021. Expressions of Interest can be lodged through the SCP7 webform at llewobrien.com. au/scp-round-7/ A local committee will assess the expressions of interest and then invited applicants will proceed to the formal application stage which must be completed and lodged by 19 January 2022. “If your community group needs some extra financial help to get a project off the ground, I encourage you to send in an expression of interest by Tuesday, 9 November,” Mr O’Brien said. Organisations should consult the SCP guidelines and the frequently asked questions on the website business.gov.au/grantsand-programs/stronger-communities-programme-round-7 to determine eligibility.

Applications will be assessed against the SCP guidelines to ensure that project proposals offer value for money. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Barnaby Joyce said the Government was continuing to back regional Australia. “Through the Stronger Communities Programme, our investments support local jobs, grow local economies and deliver lasting infrastructure and much-needed equipment,” the Deputy Prime Minister said. Through the Stronger Communities Program, the Government has provided more than $135 million for projects for communitybuilding and job-creating projects across Australia.

On The Soapbox Ingrid Jackson, former Noosa Councillor

Deja vu on Pelican Street It felt like dejà vu. I had seen it when I was a councillor – Noosa Council planners recommending refusal of long-negotiated proposals after initially encouraging applicants. The rejection was made in a hurry following considerable expenditure by the applicant, Tewantin businessman Chris Wright’s company Doonella Street Pty Ltd. Yet another applicant led up the garden path by planning staff not acting in good faith, some councillors holding sway over others, and a majority allowing themselves to be swayed. The Doonella Street development was first approved in 2015 for 16 residential units. In 2016 the land was sold to Mr Wright who in 2017 received Council approval to instead build 10 residential units and 762 sqm of commercial space. In 2019 the State Government entered into a contract to buy the land for social housing. But despite this being needed in the Shire, Council staff advised that a wholly residential scheme would not be allowed. So the State Government withdrew its offer. Not for the first time the bureaucratic drove out a necessity. The 2020 Noosa Plan changed the zoning to mixed residential/non-residential supporting Tewantin centre’s “predominant” business function. A non-existent planning scheme amendment Having indicated to Council an oversupply of commercial properties for lease in Tewantin, in February Mr Wright sought a change to the approved development, requesting the commercial space be reduced to 198 sqm and residential units increased to 19 with four for special disability accommodation. (By Octo-

ber 2021 Tewantin had 108 vacant commercial properties for lease.) Following Council’s support of Mayor Stewart’s call for affordable and social housing, in March Council voted to prepare Noosa Plan amendments, including rezoning Doonella Street properties for small affordable dwellings and social housing. This seemed to augur well for the applicant and negotiations with council staff proceeded along those lines. Councillor due diligence truncated Under the Council’s development assessment policy, councillors are forbidden from communicating with applicants until the staff assessment is placed on the agenda for a Council meeting. Routinely, these reports are available two weeks before the Ordinary Meeting at which decisions are made, allowing time for discussion at committees and for councillors to work through complex proposals and confer with applicants. But for some reason, the Doonella Street report was available only a week before September’s Ordinary Meeting. Councillors were told if they did not decide at the Ordinary Meeting, under the Planning Act the application would be deemed approved. Council could not defer the decision. The legislation only allows the applicant to request deferral. Diligent councillors seek to fully understand applications before making decisions. As a councillor I found taking the time to meet with applicants was fair to them and instructive to me. It seems that in this case Mr Wright offered a briefing to each councillor, but only

Crs Stewart and Lorentson responded. A sting in the tail During negotiations, Council staff suggested the applicant sign an infrastructure agreement locking in the four special disability units in perpetuity in line with the proposed Noosa Plan amendment which was not yet drafted nor exposed to public consultation and State Government review, actions required before a planning scheme can be changed. The Council’s solicitor advised that, as the proposed rezoning was not in the Noosa Plan, Mr Wright instead needed to sign a deed containing conditions, drafted at the applicant’s expense. Mr Wright duly paid $5,000, scrutinised the 11 conditions and found two of them unacceptable – one required paying $500,000 to be held by the Council for 10 years (later reduced to $100,000 for five years) and another incorporating the four disability units on one title. He indicated he would proceed if the two conditions were removed. At September’s General Committee meeting, Crs Lorentson and Stewart moved a motion to do away with the two conditions and request Mr Wright to seek deferral of the decision. But Crs Stockwell and Wilkie successfully moved to keep all the conditions in place. Trouble loomed. The refusal Three days later at the Ordinary Meeting, councillors were told that Mr Wright – having attended the meeting where the two onerous conditions were reinstated - had exercised his right to not seek deferral. Council then voted six to one to refuse the application, with only Cr Lorent-

son dissenting, arguing the units would meet the Council’s affordable housing objective. Cr Stewart voted against the application, even though she later told the Courier-Mail the decision “pained” her because the development was needed. So, in spite of many months negotiating to create more affordable and social housing in Noosa, Council refused the proposal on the basis that it did not comply with the Noosa Plan which mandated providing ‘predominant’ business use in a mixed residential-business zone. The view was taken that not just the precinct, but also each lot within it must predominantly provide for business use. This was not in the Noosa Plan, merely an opinion. Thus a proposal to establish affordable and social housing in the Tewantin town centre was rejected. Council was effectively telling the applicant to revert to the 2017 approval to build 10 residential units and 762 sqm of commercial space, which Mr Wright believed would be unviable. According to the Courier-Mail, Mr Wright, a Tewantin resident of 16 years, said he would “take on Noosa Council in court”. Mr Wright lodged his appeal on 13 October. He will pay a $5,000 council fee and – if mediation does not result in a settlement - expose himself and the council to hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal costs. Noosa Council had done it again: first seeming to be amenable to a worthwhile project, then negotiating for months, imposing burdensome conditions, and finally rejecting another project that would have benefited the community.

We can do better: Time to reassess and relocate By Julia Walkden A recent visit to the proposed site of the Blue Care residential estate/aged care facility at Sunrise Beach was an eyeopener! Upwards of 55,000 square metres of beautiful bushland, adoining the Noosa National Park and Girraween Nature Refuge, are about to be cleared to enable the construction of this high-density development! Is the Noosa Council truly powerless to stop this land clearing? Is the Council’s Climate Emergency Declaration meaningless? What effect will allowing this environmental catastrophe have on Noosa Council’s carbon emissions target? Among the vulnerable species listed on the Noosa Biosphere Foundation website are the Glossy Black-Cockatoo, Ground Parrot and Three-toed Snake-tooth Skink - all will be severely affected by this devastation. Biospheres are protected areas meant for the conservation of plants and animals - will Noosa’s Biosphere status offer protection for these vulnerable species or has this status been reduced to a trivial tourism marketing meme? Confidential ecological studies/surveys, the property of the Uniting Church, cannot be viewed by the public. Have adequate ecological studies even been carried out? Efforts by local conservationists to obtain the services of an independent ecologist have been difficult, since most only work for councils or developers. If Noosa Council is truly serious about tackling the effects of Climate Change and maintaining its Biosphere status, this egregious land clearing must not be allowed. It’s not good enough to say that the proposal already has legal approval from a previous council, so nothing can be done. Previous approvals, like this one, that contribute to carbon emissions and the eradication of endangered species, should be reassessed and relocated. The Noosa Council and the Uniting Church must find a more ecologically sustainable site for this residential estate/aged care facility.

Music that rocked the world By Jim Fagan The day after his career in local body politics came to an end in March last year former Noosa Mayor Tony Wellington told me in an interview, “Now I can get the creative juices flowing again.” Since then, the “juice” has been flowing in full flood. Ideas that have been in gestation in the years before and during his time in council work are now blossoming. Last year his much-acclaimed pictorial book “Wildlife of Noosa” and its vital message of the need for local conservation went into bookshops. Now his blockbuster “Freak Out” – a brilliantly written and carefully researched look at the “Swinging Sixties”—goes on sale next week. Released by Monash University Publishing, “Freak Out” is a whopper of a book with 400 pages and more than 135,000 words. It describes the role music played in an era of extraordinary change and earth-shattering events in Australia and the world Rock ‘n’ roll, folk, skiffle, pop call it what you will, the author’s contention throughout is that in the Sixties music rocked the world and at the same time reflected and reacted to what was going on—the assassinations of John F Kennedy, Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. civil rights, protest marches, the U.S.Russia Cold War, Vietnam, anti-war activism, the pill, hippies, yippies, Flower Power, the environment, the beginning of the gay rights movement and more, much more. He says, “There was a shared pleasure in the evolution of new musical sounds and specific songs and artists acted as glue for those seeking social and political change.” Hundreds of names of unforgettable artists like Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, Joan Baez, Janis Joplin, Peter, Paul and Mary, The Who, Donovan fill the pages but it is The Beatles the writer credits with much that happened musically in the Sixties: “Their inventiveness and sheer audacity established a high bar for others to emulate. In just a few short years the four Mop Tops changed popular music and youth culture in ways that have never been equalled. “This is not gushing adulation for I was never a Beatles obsessive. It is simply an acknowledgement of their crowning achievement. The Beatles were a remarkable synergy of talents.” In 1964 The Beatles came to Australia and arrived in Adelaide for their first performance. The author records that “people of all ages lined the route, standing on vehicles, hanging out of trees and choking footpaths. Estimates of numbers went as high as 300,000 which equated half the city’s populace.” In Australia bands like The Easybeats, Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs, Ray Brown and the Whispers and singers like Normie Rowe, Little Pattie, Johnny Devlin, the Deltones and Jimmy Little were dominating “the scene.” Folk singers The Seekers went to London, became an international act and were later honoured by being named Australians of the Year for 1967. Of particular interest to me is that Everybody’s Magazine is given several mentions in the book. Everybody’s was owned by Sir Frank

Packer and stablemates were The Australian Women’s Weekly and the Bulletin. It started life as a national general interest magazine but early in the Sixties it recognised the fervent demand for the young for news of local and overseas pop stars and a section called Disc Magazine was introduced. It was the precursor of all the music journalism that has followed. I was associate editor of Everybody’s for six years and I well remember the procession of pop stars coming into the Sydney office for interviews and photographs. If we had Elvis, The Beatles or Normie Rowe on the cover, sales nationally of 270,000 were commonplace. “Freak Out” records how the magazine

staged the first Everybody’s Big New Sound of 1964 won by a folk group, The Green Hill Singers, and, as part of their prize, performed live on the Jimmy Hannan Saturday Date TV Show. This later morphed into an annual competition called Hoadley’s National Battle of the Sounds, attracting up to 1000 entries. The catchy title of the book comes from the hippie movement of the time who called themselves “freaks.” They attended events like “Love Ins” “Be Ins” and said they were “freaking out.” It was a commonplace phrase during the 60’s. Tony Wellington is well credentialled to write this book. A musician (he has played lead guitar in pop bands and recorded a CD of original songs). He has hosted his own radio

show, been a writer for music magazines and a scriptwriter in the film and television industries. He has also lectured in media studies and film craft. If you were around in the Sixties, then “Freak Out” will rekindle a lot of memories. If you were not, then I recommend it to you anyway. It is an important work and, at the same time, an entertaining look at an era that will never come again. MUSIC NOTE: Singer songwriter Katie Noonan will be a special guest at the “Freak Out” launch at Noosa Surfing Museum, Noosa Lakes Resort, Noosaville, on Thursday, November 4, at 6pm.

Woodworker Bob Chaplin will demonstrate his work at the show.

Exquisite woodcraft on display at the show.

Wood show makes return As it has done for more than 30 years (barring pandemics) the Cooroora Woodcraft Show will again this year showcase the work of the Cooroy-based Cooroora Woodworkers Club. This year, as he has done for more than a decade, Bob Chaplin will be there demonstrating the use of basic woodworking hand tools to make fine furniture. Bob is a long-term member of the Club. He had a long career in academia (electronics and control algorithms) both in the UK and in New Zealand. Woodworking provided a welcome means of winding down from the rigours of developing sophisticated mathematical algorithms for use in manufacturing processes. After retiring in 2000, he moved to the Sunshine Coast (Rosemount, near Nambour) to spend more time indulging his woodworking

hobby, a hobby that has kept him engaged and entertained for over 60 years. He joined the Club in 2002. He believes that much of the detailed work in building precision furniture is more satisfying, and provides better results, when using hand tools. He runs a weekly session at the Club in fine furniture making where members turn up with their projects and Bob provides advice and guidance on the finer points of using hand tools. While his focus has always been on furniture making, Bob’s main purpose in joining the Club was to learn more about wood turning. Practice makes perfect. Now he produces intricate turned pieces of deceptive complexity and remarkable workmanship. The Cooroora Woodworkers’ Club provides

opportunities for those interested in indulging their woodworking interests; be it furniture, wood turning, toy making or just making practical things for around the home. And skilled members of the club regularly run informal courses for members – for beginners, or for those focused on broadening or honing their skills. When asked how the club had changed over the years, Bob said that it had evolved from a focus on extracting dressed wood from the club’s sawmill to what it is today - keen woodworkers making things and passing those skills onto others. The club is open to all and boasts many younger members and a significant proportion of female club members. The Cooroora Woodcraft Show is an oppor-

tunity for local skilled artisans and hobbyists to showcase their skills. It too has evolved, and the introduction of inter-club competition has encouraged other Sunshine Coast woodworking clubs (Caloundra, Blackall Range) to get involved. There is also a highly competitive school competition. The show includes displays, demonstrations and competitions, as well as finished items for sale, timber sales and trade retail stalls. The Cooroora Woodworkers Show will be held on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 November from 8.30am to 4.30pm in the Cooroy Memorial Hall on Maple St and it is only $2 for entry.

Tucker With Trevor Restaurant Review

Feeling tipsy at Izakaya Trevor Pepys reviews Izakaya Ate, Noosa Junction It had been too long between sakes. In fact the last time Trev had binged on the sacred sap of fermented rice, it had been over what turned out to be a farewell degustation lunch at the late, lamented Wasabi for a now late and lamented media mogul of Trev’s acquaintance. On that occasion, the MM’s shout of course, we went double or nothing, pairing a suitable bottle of wine with each course as well as the sake. So, as Trev and the missus took an indoor table on a cool spring evening at Izakaya Ate, it seemed fitting that we order both the Junmai Ooseki sake ($13) and the La La Land Pinot Gris 2017 ($38) to be going on with while we hoisted one in memory of the old rabble-rouser (who would have been appalled at the selections, by the way) and surveyed the menu. Okay, so Izakaya Ate isn’t Wasabi and isn’t trying to be, but it’s authentic and Trev likes its style, starting from the first part of the name, which comes from a tradition dating back 400 years to the Edo Era in Japan of “people enjoying drinking with small dishes that go perfectly along with alcohol”, the preamble to the menu begins. The second part, pronounced “ah-tay”, is a Kansai dialect word for appetizers, as in, “After enjoying different kinds of appetizer dishes with enough drinks to get you feel tipsy, people usually go for rice, noodles and soups…” Although the Pinot Gris and the sake went down a treat, clearly we weren’t tipsy enough because we elected to stay with the appetizers. First, the garlic spicy edamame ($8) to set

the mood, then share plates of Steamed Prawn Gyoza ($16), Vegetable Kakiage ($18) and a Salmon sashimi carpaccio with homemade yuzu sauce ($23). The steamed prawn dumplings were delectable but the accompanying “spicy sauce” wasn’t in the least, which was a little disappointing. Likewise the tempura of mixed vegetables was fresh, crispy and tasty but lacked an edge that a spice would have given it. The salmon sashimi carpaccio with yuzu sauce was fresh and well-presented, but Trev’s personal taste is that if you’re doing Japanese, do it all the way. Dump the carpaccio fusion confusion, cut the fish in cubes, serve with Wasabi and soy sauce, both of which Trev ordered on the side, hopefully not offending the chef. Still sipping the dregs of our twin bottles, we leapt straight from appetizers to desserts, sharing a Mochi Matcha sticky rice cake ice cream with Kuromitsu black honey and soybean flour ($12). Not Trev’s cup of sake, but the missus loved it. The verdict: Izakaya Ate is a funky room with a terrace in an increasingly trendy grazing strip (Trev read this in a big city newspaper just last weekend, so it must be true!) where you sometimes get service with attitude instead of a smile. Izakaya reverses that with prompt attention and good vibes all round, which I’m sure is one of the reasons it has a legion of fans. The food is fresh and tasty, the brief wine list reasonable. Trev will be back, and next time he’ll sort out the spice before he starts. Izakaya Ate, 14 Arcadia Street, Noosa Junction. Phone 5448 0724.

Tracey caught this 59cm flathead and 36cm bream at the river mouth while on a Noosa River Fishing Safari.

Hmmm. Still plenty of fillets left on that. Scott McKenna’s cobia was taxed before he got it into the boat at Double Island Point. Pictures: WWW.FISHINGNOOSA.COM.AU

Mixed bag hits the coast With the bureau of meteorology stating that this month could be a wild one they were spot on. We have had a mixed bag of wild weather with huge hail stones, flash flooding and even a tornado! So what has this done to the fishing? All of this weather lined up with the week leading to a full moon so we even had big tides and quiet mornings both in the rivers and offshore. The bite period was late morning and into the afternoon and for the offshore crew, medium sized fish were the main size. North Reef featured cobia, gold spot cod, tuskies, snapper, pearlies and other reef fish. Traditional paternoster rigs work well here but fishing hard on the bottom with a snelled 7/0 octopus hooks and a whole pilchard, mullet slab work very well for bigger reef dwellers. Check out the

new Shimano Ocea FC leader and ask us how to snell two hooks. If you don’t know how to do this feel free to ask us how as this is a must know technique for all bait anglers. Surf fishing on the coast has seen an influx of small whiting in the 20cm plus range. These fish are also plentiful in the estuary. Small live beach worm on a whiting hook and small running sinker has been catching lots of these fish along with similar size dart and bream. If you are struggling to catch worms we sell worming pliers which can help you grab them. Inside the river besides whiting you can expect to find flatties, bream and trevally. Fishing from the land you would be best to look around the river mouth, the Dog Beach and around Munna Point. Gympie Terrace is also a great spot when the sun shines the sand bars

Noosa Tri draws elite athletes

Noosa Masters team at Maryborough.

Masters of the pool By Brian Hoepper It was ‘touch and go’ as Noosa Masters swimmers travelled north to Maryborough for the annual swim meet. Anxiety clouded the way, as the week’s dramatic storms suggested a tumultuous disruption at the Maryborough pool. And, as chance would have it, this was the club’s first outing under the dynamic leadership of new club captain LiQun Hussey. Her parade was about to be rained on. But the weather turned in dramatic fashion, and on Saturday morning the pool was drenched in sunshine that lasted the entire day. Casting aside rain jackets and gumboots, the 12-strong Noosa team plunged into the warm-up lanes, ready for five hours of competition. The team performed exceptionally. In a field of one hundred, four Noosa swimmers

won age-group medals and five set a total of six new personal bests (PBs). These PBs were particularly celebrated, as swimmers tend to slow up a little when Christmas beckons at the end of a demanding year of competition. The Fraser Coast is rich in historical and environmental interest. The Noosa team made a weekend of it, with some exploring the historical precincts of Maryborough while others headed for the Hervey Bay beaches. For the latter, the weather had the last laugh. A planned boating exploration of the west coast estuaries of Fraser Island (‘K’gari’ to the Butchulla people) was cancelled by the tour operator. Unnecessarily, as it turned out, for Sunday dawned clear and sunny and stayed that way all day. Some disappointment, but we’ll be back again for next year’s swimming, and more. New members are warmly welcome to join us.

Ultimate disc in Noosa for Halloween Extinction Ultimate Club will host an ultimate disc tournament on Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 October at the Noosa Touch Association. This will be a social, Halloween themed event, where teams are encouraged to dress up and play in costume throughout the weekend games. Queensland players have had little opportunity for tournaments this year, as the Australian Flying Disc Association have cancelled Australian Mixed Ultimate Championships planned to be held on Halloween weekend. There will be more than 100 players from Brisbane, Gold Coast, and the Sunshine Coast attending the event. The players coming to this event range from teenagers who have been introduced to the sport as a part of the Extinction Youth Development Program and elite players who have represented Australia internationally. Ultimate disc is a growing sport in Australia, with learn-to-play opportunities in Noosa, Sippy Downs (USC fields), and Mooloolaba. It is played around the world with social and elite tournaments running worldwide throughout the year. Ultimate is a non-contact, mixed gender, team sport played with a flying disc (Frisbee). It can be played on sand, grass, or indoors. “One of the great aspects of ultimate is the sense of community and social skills you can develop,” Queensland Ultimate Disc Association president Corey Wakefield said. “It is great for players of all ages, everyone can learn to throw a disc and enjoy the sport. Ultimate is a unique sport, as it is self-refereed, with the ‘Spirit of the Game’ making players responsible for adhering to the rules of the sport. This makes it a great sport for kids, as

Halloween Ultimate group. they can learn and develop their interpersonal skills as well as engaging in physical activity.” People interested in seeing how Ultimate is played are welcome to come and watch some games being run Saturday from 9am-5pm and Sunday from 12-5pm and chat with Extinction and QUDA representatives about getting involved in the sport.

From page 1 “It’s really easy to be motivated for Noosa to be honest, because you kind of just remember the good times and everything that Noosa stands for,” she said. “Winning in Noosa is great and I’ve absolutely loved how successful I’ve been but I just love how the community comes together there and there’s a Noosa Tri family. It’s really great to be able to be a part of it and be racing, obviously in the Elite race but also with thousands of other athletes which is something I don’t do very often being on the World Series circuit.” Joining Gentle on the start line will be Lotte Wilms, an Australian based Dutch athlete who won IRONMAN 70.3 Sunshine Coast last month, an impressive result on her IRONMAN 70.3 debut. Also set to race in Noosa is Kirra Seidel who finished second at this year’s IRONMAN 70.3 Sunshine Coast. Athletes will race across a 1.5km swim, 40km ride and 10km run, joining around 6,000 other triathletes out on course. In 2021 the Noosa Triathlon men’s race will have a first-time winner, with none of the 28 male elite athletes having stood on the top step of the podium at the event. Brisbane’s Ryan Fisher is looking forward to heading north to Noosa, after injury and travel restrictions kept him close to home this year. “I’ve had a bit of slow season, I had an injury just before I was meant to go overseas a while back so it was a little bit hard for a while there finding motivation and getting back with limited racing,” Ryan said. “Once we got through the later stages of the year and with Noosa going ahead it made it a lot easier to get out the door. “It’s one of those races, and I may be biased being from Queensland, it’s probably the biggest and most enjoyable race that we have in Australia, I think that is pretty widely agreed upon, and I think with it being at the end of the year people are going onto a break after which gives it that extra bit of enjoyment.” Fisher has finished on the podium at Noosa Triathlon three times and knows that everyone in the field is a threat on race day. “It’s one of those races where you can’t write off anybody anyway, the amount of times you hear of people talking about different athletes and who’s more likely to do well, there’s always someone who comes up out of the blue. I’ve finished second there twice and third once and then the last two years I’ve been fourth and fifth, I’m pretty confident that I’m in good shape at the moment and it will be nice to get back on it.” Fisher will be joined at the event by athletes who have excelled at all distances of the sport, both at home and abroad. Max Neumann was second at the event in 2018, and since then has successfully made the transition to IRONMAN events, having won the last two Cairns Airport Asia Pacific Championship IRONMAN Cairns races. This year’s Noosa Triathlon will also feature a number of other IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 champions, with Josh Amberger, Tim Van Berkel, Nicholas Free and Steve McKenna all racing.

from the Asian dog meat trade. The NDSHS Interact Club hopes to raise $500 from participants. Dog biscuits and cookies made for human consumption will be available for purchase and there will be a raffle with dog supplies as the prizes. Entry is $5 and those under five are free.

At least two in three Australian children are not meeting the physical activity recommendation of 30-60 minutes of moderate activity each day, according to a recent report by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare and Australian Bureau of Statistics. Covid-19 restrictions and lockdowns have had a negative impact on children’s activity levels around the country, especially when it comes to organised sports. The upcoming National Children’s Week, from 23 - 31 October, celebrates children enjoying their childhood and reminds parents to ensure they’re providing their kids with lots of opportunity to stay active and make friends in their local community. With an influx of new residents from the southern states, Noosa Leisure Centre coordinator Cathy wants to ensure all locals, old and new, are aware of the range of affordable and accessible options available to young people in the Noosa area. “Noosa Leisure Centre is an amazing Council-run facility that provides local parents and their kids with a place to stay active and meet other families in a fun and welcoming environment. There’s something for every age and ability from Tutu Cute Dance classes for children aged 2 5-years, right through to Aussie Hoops for junior basketballers,” Cathy said. Local mum, Belinda McGree has two kids who have played soccer throughout their primary school years. Her kids loved soccer so much she decided to start a class for pre-school aged kids to help them develop their ball skills in the lead up to starting school. “Playing a team sport has been so posi-

The kids who come to Kiddie Kicks at the Noosa Leisure Centre pick up so many important skills like teamwork and communication, that prepare them for starting primary school,” Belinda said. Noosa Leisure Centre offers fun, out-ofthe-box activities for kids from baby sensory classes, kids’ soccer and dance, through to basketball for young teens, there is fun available for all ages. “Noosa Leisure Centre is so much more than a place to stay active. Families who use our facility make life-long friends, and parents of young kids find a place where they can enjoy a quiet cup of coffee while their kids safely climb, jump, swing, bounce and balance in the Kids’ Playroom,” Cathy said.

Laughlin and Mayo shine By Randall Woodley Quote of the week : “The last positive thing England did for cricket was to invent it!” Ex-Test captain Ian Chappell Three wins out of four matches for the Thunder senior teams last weekend. The highlights of these games were the five wicket hauls to ex-international bowler Ben Laughlin with 5 for 8 and teenager Finn Mayo’s 5 for 30 playing Sixth grade against Yandina. FIRSTS Last Saturday the Thunder First Grade team scored their “Lucky 13th” win in a row to start the season. The team were at Caloundra and showed up to a very dry powdery wicket, which was unusual for this ground. Thunder batted first and it was soon evident that the slowness of the pitch would mean that any score over 150 would be welcome. The early batsmen ground their way with quite a few being caught in front of the wicket trying to drive. Veteran Andrew Kratzmann (26) batted well and later Dom Taylor (34) held the innings together to put the team in a position to be aggressive in the last 15 overs. Cody Pyne came out and played a mature and aggressive innings of 49 not out, quicker than a run a ball to get the final score up to 174 with 70 coming in the last 10 overs. The opening bowlers started off strongly, holding Caloundra to 2-18 off the first 10 with “Tearaway” Tom Stewart taking both wickets. Caloundra played the slow bowlers well for the next ten overs to see them 3-59 off 20 at the first drinks break. The seam bowlers took over and Scott Aufderheide made the break-through straight away and the three quicks squeezed the Lighthouse batsmen every ball to hold them to 5-88 off 30, with the match still very much in the balance. The next 5 overs saw 6 runs scored and the pressure mounted and with a quick single attempted Ben Laughlin threw the stumps down to dismiss their top scorer. From there on it was the Laughlin masterclass taking the last 4 wickets to see Caloundra all out for 102 in the 38th over. He finished the match with the great figures of 5 for 8 off 10 overs. A really good performance on a pitch that really did not suit the fast-scoring Thunder batsmen. Next week the team are at home to play Caboolture in a 50 overs match, commencing at 10am. SECONDS The team took on the Caboolture Snakes at Read Park last Saturday. Minus the captain the team came out ready to go hard after Caboolture won the toss and decided to bat first. Ben Giddy and Billy Lloyd-Green opened the bowling followed by Cooper Lea and James Denslow. Some wickets fell with very few runs off the bat. Fielding and catching was top class with Leon Beatty taking a cracker to give Billy his first 2nd grade wicket. After the break, the bowling improved even further with Lachlan Webster bowling straight and taking two. Jason Toohey put the pressure on with Cooper Lea and Giddy picking up at the other end and bowling fast and straight. Thunder was able to bowl out the opposition for 116. After losing an early wicket it became the

Ben Laughlin bowling on Saturday and taking a five wicket haul. Pete Walker and Jason Toohey show. The pair got going with Pete hitting out bravely and the pair passed the target with 15 overs to spare. Pete finished on 82 and Jason 26. This was a good effort for the team who were down three key players. FOURTHS The team took on Yandina at Dale Officer Oval with the day ending with disappointment after their win the weekend before. Fielding first the TNT bowlers were on top having Yandina at 5 for 19 in the 8th over. However, from that point on it was a rather tough afternoon with Yandina hitting runs almost at will, finishing their 40 overs at 9-259 with newcomer Billy Hewitt and Tom Daly, on senior debut, both picking up a couple of wickets each. Top wicket-taker was Mike Thomson with 4. Batting second the Thunder batting lineup collapsed to be all out for 69. A very disappointing match for the team. SIXTHS The team were keen to follow up on their last match win and batted first against Yandina. However, the start was not what was wanted and soon TNT were 3 for24. Brendan Chaplin and Wayne Moore steadied the ship and added 50 before Chaplin was caught out on 25 .David Lyons came into bat to keep the scoreboard ticking over and the pair added another 50 before Lyons was out for 24. The team ended their 40 overs on 9 for 187 with Moore unbeaten on 66. Bowling later, Brendan Chaplin took two Yandina wickets to have them 3 for 82, still with another 100 to score. This is the closest they would get with teenager Finn Mayo putting on a mesmerising display of leg spin after the break with 3 stumping and taking their captain’s scalp for a golden duck that saw young Mayo on a hat-trick chance. The youngster finished with 5 for 30 off 8 overs ensuring that the Thunder boys drove back home with the win under their belt.

Noosa Springs ladies tops It’s taken most of the year to decide, but a group of five ladies from Noosa Springs are now officially the best pennant golfers in the Sunshine Coast/Burnett district. They won the honour at Noosa this month when teams from Headland, Kingaroy and Noosa Springs met to determine the champion team for 2021. And they won playing a form of the game that is rarely used – indeed, unknown to many golfers – three way matchplay, played under handicap conditions. “Nobody in our team had played it before,” said Noosa Springs captain Mally Jane. “But we were lucky that three of our caddies had taken part in the playoffs in 2016 and knew what was in store.” In three-ball matchplay, three golfers compete against one another, with each member of the group playing simultaneous matches against each of the other two golfers. It’s specifically referred to in the official Rules of Golf, and those who know the game say the most common mistake is picking up your ball after an opponent has conceded a hole or putt, but the other hasn’t. Noosa Springs won its way into the district final after becoming champion of the Sunshine Coast’s Division 2 earlier in the year. Headland had won Division 1 of the Sunshine Coast zone without losing a round, while Kingaroy was champion of the South Burnett area. After an hour’s play, a thunderstorm halted proceedings for more than 30 minutes. When play resumed, Noosa Springs ran out an easy winner, scoring 8.5 wins, with Headland runner-up on five wins and Kingaroy third on 1.5 wins. Tereza Holley, Meredith Bunn and Carol Moloney won both their matches for Noosa Springs, while Mally Jane had one win and a tie, and Jill Yeatman scored a win and a loss. Mally said the team was brilliantly supported by caddies Barb Stott, Rowena Faerch, Di Kemp, Judy Gosper and Fran Clements. “They had a big role in getting us over the line,” she said. District president Judy Patterson, of Noosa, presented the team with a glass trophy, and each winning player with a commemorative wine glass. Jim’s game gets better as he matures Jim Lenske’s association with golf is pretty similar to many of us. A handy young player in his teens, Jim pretty much gave the game away when family life and work intruded, only to take it up again when he got older. The thing that’s different about Jim is that in his retirement years he’s playing better than ever – even contemplating reaching single figures before long. Jim, a former bank manager and newsagent, joined Cooroy in March after finally calling a halt to his work life. Since then he’s won two Monthly Medals, the Vets B grade championship and, last week, he scorched around Cooroy’s 18 holes with such skill that he tallied 44 points to win the B grade competition by three points. That’s it for B grade for Jim. He’s now on the verge of A grade and enjoying his golf like never before. It’s his second time around as a Cooroy member. Back in the 1980s, when it was just a nine-hole track, Jim joined the club, but didn’t have the time to hone his game. He’d just returned from Papua New Guinea, where he’d worked with the Commonwealth Bank. Later he went to Bowen, where he operated the town’s newsagency for 10 years, and more recently he’s helped out at the BWS in Gympie. Jim grew up around Tewantin and now lives at Widgee. Though he plays only once a week, Jim says he loves golf, and particularly likes the people he plays with in Vets competitions at Cooroy each Wednesday. Grathan’s amazing treble at Cooroy Grathan Leatherbarrow, the veteran maestro of Cooroy, has just added another honour to 44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 29 October, 2021

Winners are grinners. The victorious Noosa Springs team of players and caddies were (from left) Jill Yeatman and Barb Stott, Rowena Faerch and Tereza Holley, Mally Jane and Di Kemp, Meredith Bunn and Judy Gosper, and Carol Moloney with Frank Clements. what has been a remarkable year of golfing achievements. Not content with winning the club championship and the vets club championship in the past few months, Grathan last week beat arch-rival Lee Grainger 2&1 to claim the club’s matchplay championship as well. It is the first time in the club’s history that anybody has won all three titles in the same year – an achievement unlikely to be repeated. “I just can’t believe that this has happened,” Grathan, 73, said. “To win these titles at my age is something I never dreamed of.” Cherry-Evans lends his support to record bid Maroons skipper Daly Cherry-Evans wasn’t going to miss a chance to play at Noosa Springs last week. Cherry-Evans, along with other sports stars, had planned to play in a charity golf day at the resort in support of his mate, golfing world record challenger Mick McLoughlin who, next month, will attempt to play 2000 holes of golf in just seven days. McLoughlin, a Brisbane businessman and philanthropist, is raising money for Ronald McDonald House, and a fund-raiser had been scheduled for Noosa Springs on Friday. Unfortunately it had to be cancelled but Cherry-Evans, who spent time on the Sunshine Coast early in his football career as part of the Sunshine Coast Falcons, was not going to let the chance go by. He told organisers he was keen to play, anyway, and nobody was going to deny the Maroons State of Origin captain. After his round, he took the opportunity to head off suggestions he might become a marquee player for the new Dolphins team when they enter the NRL competition in 2023. While Cherry-Evans said he had fond memories of Redcliffe, he had no plans to join the club, and was looking forward to playing our the remainder of his rugby league career with Manly – and the Queensland Maroons, of course. McLoughlin, meanwhile, will attempt the world record of 2000 holes in seven days at Wynnum from November 21 to 27.

By Greg Lynch It’s no secret that the mental game is just as important as the physical or technical side of golf. However it’s an area that we often neglect to work on, or measure, as golfers. A simple way to get a gauge on how your mental state is affecting your scoring is to develop a ‘Mental Game Scorecard’. After each hole during your next round write down a mental game score next to your actual score on the scorecard. As a guide, you might give yourself a mental birdie for holes where you were thinking positively and staying in the present, a mental par on holes where your attitude was adequate, a mental bogey where you mind wandered, and a double bogey or higher if you completely lose your positive attitude and maybe start throwing clubs. It’s important to be honest with yourself and commit to the process for a decent amount of time. Eventually you should be able to break par on your 18 hole mental scorecard and you might be surprised to see your actual scores improve as a result.

Noosa Pirates RLFC new management committee.

A positive time for codes It was back in 2010 that Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union Club, hosted its first elite 7’s Rugby tournament and since then it has hosted, junior, women’s social and elite 7’s competition each year. This year they are going one step further. On the 13 and 14 November, the Noosa Dolphins will proudly host the inaugural Queensland State 7’s Rugby Championships. Speaking on behalf of the club, president Donald McKill said, “We as a club are proud of the contribution the Noosa 7’s has made to the development of 7’s rugby, with many of the current male and female players, within elite junior and senior programs, gracing Dolphin Oval over the years. We are looking forward to continuing our support of the development of 7’s Rugby, through the Queensland 7’s in future years.” With the 7’s Rugby being so popular, the fact that Noosa Dolphins will host the Queensland Championships, (13/14 November) big crowds for the two-day event, are indeed a very safe bet. This of course means that accommodation will be needed for all the visiting teams, both men’s and women’s, their support groups plus families. This is just another example of what well organised sporting events can do for Tourism Noosa. We at Noosa Today, wish all involved in the event every success. On Sunday morning the Noosa Pirates Rugby League Club gathered at Pirate Park for its Annual General Meeting. This proud club, which was formed in 1975 and based in Cooroy, has, despite all the problems created by Covid-19, (one of which was the cancellation of the 2020 Senior season) finished this season with a very positive and successful ending. After his words of welcome, club president Paul Dwyer tabled his Annual Report. “In yet another testing and demanding season, that impacted us so heavily in 2020, the Noosa District Rugby League Football Club, has again managed to thrive and prosper across all facets of our operation: both on and off the field, during the season 2021.Following the cancellation of the 2020 senior season, it was amazing to see our four Senior grades were able to get back on the field and compete once again.” In his address to the meeting, the president

Pirates RLFC hold their AGM. made those in attendance fully aware that to succeed in such a season of turmoil and restrictions, there were many groups and individuals to acknowledge, and thank. Coaches, managers, players, both junior and senior, game officials and parents: a massive team effort. “A special thanks must go out particularly to the QRL and the Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League, for working so hard to make it happen, and to get us to the finish line,” he said. “Special thanks went to the Noosa Council, to State and Federal MP’s, Sandy Bolton and Llew O’ Brien and their staff …who provided us with a range of support and services, that helped us to remain viable and functional, in the work that we do as a community organisation.” Regarding the sponsors, the backbone of all sporting organisations, the president said, “To our amazing sponsors who once again stuck with us in very difficult and uncertain times, your unwavering support during the season, has been pivotal in keeping this great club and its 46 year- heritage intact.” Regarding the playing field he drew attention, when he stated that two seasons ago, the Pirates were the wooden spooners in Division 1. However, this season saw them finish in third position. He acknowledged all teams, from the youngest of the juniors, through to the seniors and thanked all involved. A major highlight for the season was the announcement that Harry Dwyer was named Sunshine Coast Mal Meninga Player of the Year and Seaton Reid Divi-

sion 1 Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League, Player of the Year. “To our management committee and general manager Brett Winkler, I owe a great deal of gratitude and thanks in consistently delivering for the Pirates club in such circumstances,” he said. “Special thanks must go to Brett, general manager, for his ability to continually steer us through the continuation of the Covid19 crisis.” Brett will finish in his role as general manager at the end of the year as we restructure, the administration and operational functions of the club to ensure its ongoing success and viability. This alteration, will see it go from full to part time. We wish him well in his future endeavours. With regard to the proposed Community Hub redevelopment of the Tewantin sight, we will continue to keep you up to date. In his report to the meeting, the general manager first of all, expressed his warm thanks to the club and its members for again allowing the opportunity to lead the clubs’ business operations as general manager of the Noosa District Rugby League Football Club. “Thank you to the tremendous people that I worked with and on behalf of. The success and determination of any club ultimately comes down to its people.” He then acknowledged all committees, sub committees and all people involved in assisting their club: and the often-forgotten ground staff, at both Cooroy and Tewantin. And in particular, his partner Kaylene, who had supported him at so many levels throughout his epic journey. Also acknowledged was the outstanding work of two unsung volunteers Guy Porter and Greg Furner. “As I prepare to sign off at the end of the year, I look upon some of the highlights of my time as general manager - a successful merger (between Junior and Senior clubs), improved registration and performance from all teams: and above all improved and sustained financial performance,” he said. On a lighter side, he drew attention to the fact that Pirates had played host to the Sydney NRL club West Tigers, courtesy of former Pirate player Moses Mbye now Tigers: and arguably, the leading NRL league club Melbourne Storm, who based

at Pirate Park for 3 months during the season. To cap it off it is not too often that a billionaire, in the form of Richard Branson, rings you up (for permission) to land on your footy field. “But the real highlight has certainly been working with the club members, players, sponsors and supporters who make this great club great,’’ he said. In her report, secretary Nichole Christensen tabled; “A good result this season after our interrupted 2020 season. It was great to get our Junior and Senior teams back on the field. Special thanks to Joe Cirillo for his assistance, also parents, carers, volunteers and supporters. Registrations were up compared to the pre-Covid season in 2019;some highlights were as follows. Total club registrations, 345217 juniors 128 seniors: total teams fielded-22 teams,17 juniors 4 seniors. All age groups represented-u/6 to u/17boys and girls. Divisions 1and 2,u/18s and Open Women’s. High number of representative players (chosen) from all divisions at Local, Falcon and State levels, with some being winners of major awards. The club has managed to meet all its legal statutory and financial obligations, with all local governing bodies, Queensland Rugby league and the various departments of Queensland State Government that the club deals with.” In closing secretary Christensen thanked all involved with the club, including sponsors, supporters and committees. Considering the erratic financial atmosphere, that the world of business has experienced over the past 12 months, the report tabled by the treasurer Conrad Voss, could have not been better. In his closing remarks, he gave a big vote of thanks to management, all those involved with sponsorship and above all, those who worked the club bar, manned the gates and cooked the barby: people, who sometimes get to see very little of the game. All this team work, has resulted in a surplus for Pirates, that would be the envy of many kindred clubs. Regarding the election of positions for the forth coming season, all office bearers were unopposed. Friday, 29 October, 2021 NOOSA TODAY 45

Welcome to summer party It’ll be the biggest surf party of the year, as Noosa celebrates the start of summer and the end of another successful year of stewardship of the 10th World Surfing Reserve. Surrounded by surfboard history at the amazing new Noosa Surf Museum, a full house of surfers and their families are expected to fill up on Apple Pip Catering’s street food dinner, plus full bar, enjoy watching raw footage of local shredders on the big screen, not to mention a surf auction and surfboard raffle, then bop the night away to the salty sounds of The SandFlys, and later on a DJ. It will be about as much fun as you can have standing up, but there is also a serious purpose behind the frivolity. During 2021 the Noosa World Surfing Reserve has created a Surf Code for all ages designed to promote safety and good behaviour in the surf, a program now being introduced through schools and surf schools, as well as through beach signage and social media campaigns. In addition the NWSR has worked closely with Noosa Heads Surf Club and BCR Medical to install defibrillators (AEDs) at safe intervals throughout the World Surfing Reserve, and is now working on the installation of life-rings (rescue tubes) at strategic positions close to our surf breaks. All of this costs money, so the Summer Party will be a fundraiser, but in addition to that, the NWSR Stewardship Council has decided it’s time to acknowledge surfers who give back. Says recently-elected NWSR president Kirra Molnar: “Noosa became the tenth World Surfing Reserve in 2020, covering the world class point and beach breaks from the river mouth to North Sunshine Beach. Our motto of Share. Respect. Preserve. encapsulates the goal of NWSR to preserve surf zones and their surrounding environments and, by recognising and protecting the key environmental, cultural, economic and community attributes, to ensure that they are around for future generations. “There are a numerous people who contribute to these goals within the local community, and the NWSR stewardship council would like to publicly acknowledge these wonderful contributions at the NWSR Annual Awards on Saturday, 27 November.” Awards will be presented for Environmental Contribution, Industry Innovation, Cultural Contribution, Videographer, Photographer, Community Surfer of the Year (male and female juniors and seniors awards), and the NWSR Prestige Award for extraordinary achievement (in memory of Bill Wallace). Award nomination forms can be down-

It’s by no means a done deal, with the big goofyfoot now sitting in equal sixth place with two others. Only 12 men and six women can qualify through the series, but with current rankings leader Kanoa Igarashi doublequalified there’s a bit more wriggle room. For a return to the tour on which he made such a splash on in his rookie year in 2017, Connor will need a solid performance next month in the last of the Challenger events in Hawaii, with fellow Aussies Liam O’Brien, Jackson Baker and Jordan Lawler all outside chances hovering around the cut-off line. In the men’s final at Hossegor, a tight first half of the heat saw O’Leary and Bourez exchange similar scores on the rights and lefts with only a slight advantage to the Australian, but Connor pushed the Tahitian’s requirement a touch higher with a good little left he punctuated with a clean air midway through the heat. Unfortunately for Bourez, the rights that gave him his best scores so far had disappeared, and the lefts clearly favoured O’Leary’s forehand attack and air game. As the clock ran down, Bourez was unable to find the right wave and O’Leary walked away with the win. “I feel amazing, it’s been a huge day,” O’Leary told the WSL interviewer. “I’m literally on top of the world right now and cramping up, can’t wait to have a beer! I’ll just really enjoy the afternoon with the lads, and try to keep it up and finish the year strong!” After difficult starts in the previous Challengers in California and Portugal, the Australian from Cronulla needed something big in France and delivered with his first major win since Ballito in 2016. In the women’s division, Australia’s India Robinson’s brave second in France puts her in with a chance of qualification, now sitting at fourth in the rankings. Costa Rico’s Brisa Hennessy secured her qualification with a solid win over India in the final. The final event of the Challenger Series will get underway at Haleiwa from 26 November.

It was action stations aplenty at the auction marathon with seven of the Offermann team and auctioneer Gordon Macdonald working collaboratively with multiple buyers for over an hour of intense negotiations. It finally concluded at $14.25m and set a new benchmark for a house on a standard-sized allotment. Many high-value sales have been transacted by Tom Offermann Real Estate along the easter beaches; however, these have been for either double blocks or sizeable parcels.

The three-bedroom, three-bathroom ocean-front house with pool at 20 Arakoon Cres, Sunshine Beach, sold at auction Sunday for $14.25m. 255269 row locations also, premium price buyers are willing to pay to enjoy that privilege. Tim McSweeney was delighted with the result and justifiably proud of having worked with the three owners of 20 Arakoon Cres over their 20 years. It was sold for $3.15m in March 2002. On Saturday the Rebekah Offermannlisted 9 Little Cove Rd, Noosa Heads, a distinctively modernist five-bedroom residence on the doorstep of Noosa National Park and a few minutes’ walk to Little Cove Beach, aroused much interest from local and interstate buyers. It was hotly contested by four registered buyers and sold under the hammer for $6.5m. Six registered bidders from Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and New Zealand were all anxious to receive the keys to the door of the Luke Chen-registered 7 Villa Serena/18 James Street Noosaville. It sold at auction for $840,000 to a buyer from Northern NSW. There were three registered bidders at the Rebekah Offermann-listed 7 Bowsprit Pl, Sunrise Beach. It was passed in and is now listed for $3.6m. Friday had all the signs of success for Michael McComas and his listing of 2 Wildflower St, Sunshine Beach. With 11 registered bidders seeking an investment or home it was sold for $1.810m to a

recent local who had moved here from Melbourne and was looking to fulfil his dream. The Eliza Coppin-listed Villa 4 Coco Bay, 287 Weyba Rd, Noosaville near the Noosa River sold prior to auction. AN AUCTION FOR THE AGES There is nothing quite like a good auction. A highly-charged environment where bidders compete against each other to determine the market price of a property. Laguna Real Estate’s Warren Evans has been using auctions for the past 40 years and believes they are a fair indication of a property’s market value. The auction of the 1980s two-bedroom, two-bathroom free-standing villa at 4/21 Ann St, Noosaville, on Saturday, was a good indication of property values through the years. Initially brought to the market by the developer at $89,000, Saturday’s auction saw five registered bidders - three on the phone and two on the ground. After an opening of $450,000, 36 bids later it sold at $810,000. The property was called on the market at $765,000. The local buyers are looking to renovate and for family members to use as well because of the low-set nature, Warren said, and low body corporate fees. It is one of six detached villas that are

basically on a group title. “The buyers are still there,’’ Warren said. “There are more properties coming onto the market by the time the interstate borders open.’’ A LOT TO LIKE ABOUT MID-WEEK AUCTIONS The mid-week auctions are working exceptionally well for Reed & Co, but it’s about convenience for buyers and sellers and not about numbers. Speaking after the sale this week of three properties by auction, Adrian Reed said it was generally better for buyers to experience Noosa in the week rather than weekends. “At the moment there is probably no better place in the world than Noosa. “This has been consumer driven rather than a pre-conceived idea of when to hold them. It’s not about the numbers, it’s about the results.’’ The auction last Wednesday of the fourbedroom, two-bathroom house with pool at 22 Cottonwood Ct, Noosa Heads, saw six registered bidders. It sold at auction for $2,750,000, significantly beating the $2.2m that was the previous best result for the Elysium precinct. “It really establishes Cottonwood and Wild Apple Courts,’’ Adrian said. “They are now being significantly re-invested in. “This property has been carefully maintained, in a quiet cul-de-sac and with wonderful facilities within the estate.’’ The property sold to a family out of Canberra. The four-bedroom, two-bathroom house with pool at 25 Shipyard Cct, Noosa Waters, was withdrawn prior to auction and listed by private treaty at $2.4m. “It is a lovely single-level residence suited to downsizers and there are buyers who want to get their feet on the ground, so to speak. “We are currently in negotiations.’’ On Thursday, the three-bedroom, twobathroom house with pool and ocean outlook at 17 Captains Ct, Sunrise Beach, saw five registered bidders, mostly local buyers waiting for that A-grade spot to come up.

“It was a fabulous campaign,’’ Adrian said, “with significant views. “It is in one of the marquee streets and it sold above reserve for $3.55m to a local family.’’ ONLY THE BEST It was one of the best of the best in the Noosa Springs gated estate and the first in the door grabbed the opportunity with both hands. Ron Davey at Base Realtors was due to take the four-bedroom, four-bathroom lakeside home with pool 752/61 Noosa Springs Dve to auction on Saturday, October 30, but it has gone under contract. “There is everything you would expect here at the Palms,’’ Ron said, “... wonderful floor plan, natural light filling all the rooms and private lake views.’’ When asked what was needed to stop the auction, Ron told the client he was going to have to come up with a darned good offer. He did. It was thought to be in the mid $3m. Set on 868m2 of immaculate easy-care grounds. The local buyer was looking for less maintenance, security, and the position with elevation and lake views. APARTMENT SET FOR SUNSET AUCTION Sharon McLure at the McLure Group has a good record of completed sales under auction terms, especially at managed resorts. Many of those sales are sight unseen as the buyers feel confident of managed resorts, if the figures work. Last Saturday Sharon sold 119 French Quarter, 62 Hastings St, Noosa Heads, on auction day at the reserve price. This Saturday a one-bedroom, onebathroom apartment with rooftop terrace 306 Noosa Blue, 16 Noosa Pde, Noosa Heads, will go to auction at 6pm. Sunset, hinterland views, jacuzzi on the rooftop terrace - quite a setting. Sharon reports good inquiry as well as private inspections … mainly locals looking for an investment, and especially being on Noosa Hill.

The location too is magical. Idyllically north, the sophisticated apartment also looks over a coconut palm-fringed waterfront with white-sand beach, impressive oval-shaped pool, spa, and sun terrace, two pontoon jetties and mooring bollards. Sounds like heaven for those wanting to become boaties for a day, or just build sandcastles and swim in the shallows. The building’s curvaceous architectural lines are mirrored indoors with its sandhued floor tiles, muted grey and white palette, seaside-themed art, comfy cane chairs and timber furniture, including a dining table to seat six comfortably.

Whether enjoying sundowners, casual lunches, being a sun devotee or napping on a sun lounge in-between eyeing off pleasure craft catching the breeze, there’s no denying, this is the life. The L-shaped kitchen with breakfast bar, has all the necessities for any enthusiastic cook wanting to create a delightful dinner or just salads for a barbeque.

ENVIABLE LIFESTYLE A TOWNHOUSE of this calibre, with the much-coveted address of Ketch Place in Noosaville is a rare commodity as it offers an enviable, unparalleled lifestyle desired by many but not always available. Until now. The front entrance courtyard sets the scene for a naturally bright, very cool and sophisticated open-plan interior, which on three sides blurs the line between indoors and outdoors. It’s certainly a case of being spoilt for choice and realising how courtyards/ terraces play such an important function in design by regulating light, shade and use of space, on this larger-than-normal parcel of land. Look left from the living space out to the very generous, garden-fringed and sailcovered terrace. It spells entertaining to the max and wraps around on the northern side. Once again sliders, this time off the dining and lounge spaces, peel away to the terrace which extends to the eastern boundary. Taking centre stage is a dazzling

pool and sun deck with an idyllic northerly aspect. The very appealing, large white 2-pac kitchen has stone benchtops, a walk-in pantry and premium appliances, while on the southern side is a courtyard. It is accessed from the laundry which abuts a bathroom. The master king suite sits in a prime position on the upper level with a bright

and breezy northerly aspect and private balcony with floor to ceiling shutters. There are two additional large bedrooms with one the perfect office and guest room. In addition to offering an idyllic position for owner occupiers including downsizers, the appeal for holiday makers is exceptionally strong, with demonstrated returns and low outgoings sure to impress the most discerning of investors. “There are many townhouses that will catch your eye,” explains Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Chris Miller, who’s taking the property to auction on Saturday 13 November 2021, “however when it comes to the Ketch Place/Bluefin precinct, which has an innate sense of community spirit and is next to the prestigious Noosa Waters canal development, this townhouse will capture your heart. “Leave the car at home, walk through a park to local cafes and supermarkets or stroll along a lane which leads to a shopping village, while a little further on is

the Noosa River with its parks and popular restaurants.” Facts & Features: Land size: 344m² House area: 210m² About: pool 3m x 7m; courtyard 5m x 2m; private separate driveway and entrance, automated double garage w internal access, purpose-built storage on 2 walls incl fishing rod racks; kitchen - 2pac stone-topped benches w walk-in pantry, high-end appliances incl induction hob; security incl intercom/gate; ceiling fans throughout, split system aircon downstairs and newly installed ducted aircon upstairs, newly resurfaced garage floor, secure fully-fenced courtyard with tranquil and serene gardens Location: close to park, cafes, Gibson Road, Homemaker and Noosa Village shopping precincts, essential services and transport links; also, Noosa River foreshore parks, boat hire, boutiques and popular cafes/restaurants ●

LUXURY SEASIDE OASIS AMONG THE TREES LIVING in the treetops whilst enjoying stunning ocean views from your balcony is a lifestyle not many get to enjoy, but at 1 Seamist Court, this dream can become reality. Spread over three levels, this magnificent property offers the spacious, luxurious family living you are looking for. Entry to the house is on the ground level, straight into the heart of the house. The vast spaces of the open plan living, and dining area create the perfect indoor/ outdoor feel, with bifold doors opening to the spacious outdoor entertaining and pool area. Enjoy a spa-like experience, floating in the curved infinity pool looking out onto established banksia trees and listening to the distinctive calls of glossy black cockatoos often seen in this area. A fully equipped kitchen services this floor, ensuring convenience for entertaining and great separation of living for extended families or guests. Down a long hallway, you will find the three guest bedrooms of the house, two of which are ensuited. A powder room complete with a shower also services this level and the third bedroom. The European laundry at the end of the hall opens to spacious timber deck, perfect to escape the hustle and bustle of the main house to enjoy a cup of coffee amongst the lush greenery. Set on the lower ground floor is the oversized garage, with two large storage areas. One area has a lockable roller door for safe storage of personal items. There are extensive built-in deep timber shelves and two work benches. There are dual kayak racks and plenty of room for surfboards and bicycles. Also, on this level you will find a powder room, fully climatecontrolled wine cellar and another smaller storage area under the stairs useful for suitcases and camping equipment. For ultimate convenience, a hose

connection and drainage has been installed in the garage to enable you to wash your car at any time, no matter the weather. The top level is the highlight of the house. A second expansive open plan living, and dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen and out to a spacious timber deck, where you can enjoy dining among the treetops whilst watching the whales go by. The well-equipped kitchen allows socialising whilst cooking up a storm with a large walk-in pantry, quality appliances and a panorama window overlooking the bushland. A fireplace creates the perfect ambiance for a cosy night in during the winter months, whilst air-conditioning and ceiling fans keep you cool in the summertime. A large roll across fly screen allows you to fully open the bifold doors and enjoy the cool ocean breezes.

The remainder of the upper-level plays host to the stately master suite. Abundant in size, the suite encompasses the master bedroom, stunning Japanese inspired design wardrobes. The clever use of a concealed screen allows the separation to a spacious library and study. A magnificent ensuite, complete with a large walk-in shower with no less than three shower heads, a double vanity as well as a freestanding spa bathtub adjoining a covered private balcony. Relax here with some bubbles gazing through a private window capturing the treetops and sky.
