A colourful message
Zonta Club of Geelong members Beryl McMillan, Connie Adornetto, Cheryl Gibbons, Jane Ardonetto, Debbie Schmidt and Chris Denmead.
The Zonta Club of Geelong is encouraging the community to ‘Orange the World’ in support of eliminating violence against women. Thursday was the United Nations’ Day of Elimination of Violence against women, which kick started 16 days of activism against gender-based violence. On Thursday, the Zonta Club walked in solidarity with victim-survivors of family violence from Cunningham Pier to Eastern Beach and back to raise awareness. Spokesperson Chris Denmead said the club’s members also planned to wear orange over the next two weeks, attach orange streamers to their cars and mailboxes and “spread the message”. “Domestic and family violence is still way too prevalent everywhere in the world, not just here, and we need to keep working to reduce that,” she said. “We want to see as many people wearing orange over the next 16 days, because the more people see the orange, they’re going to ask about it. “Then we’re starting the conversation and that’s what it is about.”
CBD COVID recovery plan The City of Greater Geelong will reintroduce free parking in December and investigate the potential of a voucher system, similar to the one used in Melbourne, to get visitors back into the CBD as part of its COVID support initiatives. Councillors voted to endorse more than $2 million worth of COVID support at Tuesday’s council meeting, with a focus on helping the arts sector and hospitality businesses bounce back over summer. One of the initiatives, at an estimated cost of $190,000, will be the waiving of parking fees in all two-hour metred on-street parking spaces in the CBD, after a proposal put forward
by councillor Eddy Kontelj was narrowly supported. Five councillors – Stephanie Asher, Trent Sullivan, Kylie Grzybek, Anthony Aitken and Ron Nelson – supported Cr Kontelj’s proposal, which would see fees waived throughout December. Cr Kontelj said the initiative would bring more people into the CBD and get them spending money at businesses that have struggled for the past 18 months. “We know how important free parking is to generating visitation to shopping precincts, that’s been proven when you look at areas like Pakington Street, Waurn Ponds, Highton, and even High Street,” he said. “People go where they can afford to go and
at the moment people are struggling financially as we head into Christmas.” Cr Sullivan added that CBD parking was already free on the weekend, when more people had time to visit the CBD, and it made sense to extend that to December and the Christmas period. “I don’t see why we wouldn’t pursue that … there are people who paying a few dollars for parking is a barrier [to visiting the CBD],” he said. However several councillors, including Peter Murrihy and Bruce Harwood, were strongly opposed to the move, stating there was no proof free parking brought more people into the CBD.
Cr Kontelj’s proposal also included a push for the city to investigate whether it could introduce a voucher system to encourage residents to spend money at CBD hospitality businesses, as it currently used in the City of Melbourne. The idea was roundly supported by the other councillors, with a report due to return to council by March next year. The support package will also include almost $600,000 worth of grants, including $400,000 for the arts sector. There will also be more than $900,000 worth of rental relief for tenants in city-owned buildings and $300,000 to support tourism within the region.

Call to boost public transport By Ash Bolt A new report from Infrastructure Victoria has called for boosts to public transport in Geelong to address the changes the pandemic has had on Victorians’ working habits. The report, ‘The post-pandemic commute: the effects of more working from home in Victoria’, used modelling to determine the state’s infrastructure needs if the change to working from home continued. Based on a third of workers working from home two-to-three days per week by 2036, Victoria’s population will be more spread out around Melbourne and around regional
cities like Geelong, as people factor in a lower commute time-cost and seek out the lifestyle benefits of a tree change. “When people can work from home some days each week, they are willing to tolerate longer commutes on their fewer days in the office,” Infrastructure Victoria acting chief executive Jonathan Spear said. “But access to major job precincts remains a factor in people’s housing choices.” To address the region’s population growth, particularly among people who worked in Melbourne, the report called for the state government to prepare for the Melbourne Metro Two project – a tunnel between Newport
and Clifton Hill in Melbourne – and provide direct trains to Geelong. It also called for improved bus services in and around Geelong. Committee for Geelong chief executive Jennifer Cromarty said there needed to be a shift to thinking of Geelong as another metropolitan city. She said the committee had lobbied the state government to improve the rail connection to Melbourne, but there also needed to be improvements to the rail service within Geelong. “We should be using our rail system as more of a metro commuter rail,” she said.
“We’re looking at having a population of half a million by 2042 … we’re not another regional city like Ballarat or Bendigo, so there needs to be the planning and funding to ensure the infrastructure is there. “Just like they’re seeing in Melbourne, we’re seeing strong growth in Armstrong Creek and the north-west area around Lara. “For the north-west, there’s no forward budget for the infrastructure needed when we’re essentially building Ballarat on our doorstep. “Public transport down to the south to Armstrong Creek and Torquay is also an issue that needs to be resolved urgently.”
Underpayment investigation

Civic reception for honour awardees Geelong’s recent Order of Australia recipients were finally able to be formally recognised this week, following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions. A civic reception was held at City Hall on Monday for the first time since 2019 to celebrate the Australia Day and Queen’s Birthday honours received by Geelong region residents in 2021. Mayor Stephanie Asher presented medallions to each of the 23 people to receive honours at the event. Pete Johnston (service to veterans), Barry Abley (service to the community of Geelong), Brian Edward (service to the community of Geelong), Janet Synot (service to the arts, to the community, and to badminton), Elaine Mitchell (service to the performing arts), Donna Rae-Szalinski (service to cycling), Alan Joyce (service to surf lifesaving, and to the community), Alistair McCooke
(service to surf lifesaving), Professor Peter Gates (service to neurology), Douglas Whan (service to the community through the church), Rosanne King (service to sports administration), Warren Hewitt (service to community health through welfare support groups), Lisa Kingman McGlinchey (service to business and community engagement initiatives), Norman Houghton (service to community history), David Morgan (service to the wool industry), Gary Tomlins (service to marine rescue organisations, and to the community), Jennifer Walsh (service to community health, particularly to palliative care), Alistair Urquhart (service to people with a disability through employment initiatives), Professor Felice Jacka (service to nutritional psychiatry research), Jeffrey Stewart (service to the community of Drysdale), Philip Emery (service to the community of Greater Geelong), and Raymond Weston (service to youth, and
to emergency response organisations) were all recognised for being awarded Order of Australia medals. Professor Debra Nestel (significant service to medical education through simulated teaching methods) was also recognised for being made a member of the Order of Australia. Cr Asher said the recipients represented many different fields, including community service, veterans’ affairs, the arts, sport, health and medicine. “The 23 recipients have demonstrated qualities of dedication, generosity and passion for their respective areas of interest and I thank them for making Greater Geelong a better place,” she said. “These community members are all very deserving of the honours they’ve received, and I have no doubt that their efforts have inspired others to strive for the best in their own endeavours.” Ash Bolt
The Fair Work Ombudsman has commenced legal action against the operator of a horse training business in Lovely Banks for alleged underpayment of staff. Vengeance Performance Horses sole trader Jessica Lee Schneider is facing action from the ombudsman over the alleged underpayment of two part-time staff members. The regulator investigator received requests for assistance from the two workers, aged 16 and 21, earlier this year. A Fair Work inspector issued Ms Schneider with compliance notices in March after alleging the workers had been underpaid minimum wages and weekend penalty rates for their work associate with training and caring for retired racehorses. The Fair Work Ombudsman alleged Ms Schneider had failed to comply with the compliance notices, which required the company to calculate and back-pay the workers’ outstanding entitlements. It was also alleged the company failed to issue pay slips to the workers. If the alleged compliance notice breaches are proven, Ms Schneider faces maximum penalties of $6660 per breach. Ms Schneider also faces a maximum penalty of up to $13,320 for the alleged failure to issue pay slips. The Fair Work Ombudsman is also seeking a court order for Ms Schneider to rectifying the alleged underpayments in full, plus superannuation and interest. A directions hearing has been listed in the Federal Circuit and Family Court in Melbourne on December 13.

Ducks race for charity After the success of their first run last year, the Torquay Lions Club is bringing back its duck races. Club president Neil Roche said the fundraiser event had been a hit in 2020 and he was hoping to see it continue to grow. Torquay Lions first held the race in October last year as a new way to raise funds with lockdown limiting its usual activities. The races saw 120 rubber ducks race down a section of Spring Creek, with the races recorded and broadcast on social media. Mr Roche said he was hoping the community would again get behind the race next month. “Our club is aiming for 300 ducks – the little yellow type that float – to race off in heats on December 11,” he said. “The exact venue and time will be announced on the day, subject to weather and tides. “The event will go live to our club Facebook page, @lionstorquay.” Mr Roche invited Surf Coast residents to
‘adopt’ a duck for the race for $10 each. “If all ducks are adopted for race day, and thanks to our sponsors donating prizes to the value of $500, the Lions will raise $3000 to put back into the community,” he said. Mr Roche said the event was important for the club to continue providing financial support for the community. “It’s been a difficult year for many, including for the Lions to get together and fundraise,” he said. “So, the idea of a bit of fun, and the ability to financially support our local community, is something to which the club is looking forward.” Mr Roche said the ducks could be adopted from the Lions Club’s website, or in person in Gilbert Street or at the Farmers Market. Prizes will also be announced online once they are finalised. Details: torquaylionsclub.org.au. Ash Bolt

Black Friday festival The City of Greater Geelong is hoping to see shoppers flock back to the CBD this weekend for Black Friday. The city has organised a range of activities across the weekend and mayor Stephanie Asher encouraged the community to support businesses. “Christmas is the important time of year for retailers so we hope shoppers will visit the sales to grab a bargain while supporting local jobs and businesses,” she said.

Library ideas welcomed By Ash Bolt The City of Greater Geelong is seeking community feedback on the design principles and concept plan for the redevelopment of the Chilwell Library. Working with the Geelong Regional Library Corporation and the Chilwell Library Group, the city wants to ensure the facility is meeting community expectations and needs now and into the future. The redevelopment is focused on making sure Chilwell Library remains a community-focused facility while improving integration with the park and providing new community meeting spaces and toilet facilities. The city’s 2021-22 budget included a $100,000 allocation for the upgrade’s design, while it is expected a further $900,000 for construction will be included in the 2022-23 budget. The city is seeking additional funding sources from all levels of government, including an application which has been submitted for a Living Libraries minor grant. Greater Geelong mayor Stephanie Asher encouraged the community to have a say on the plans for the highly valued community library. “We know this upgrade is important for the Newtown community, and council was proud to allocate funding to the redevelopment of the library,” she said. “We have worked closely with the Geelong Regional Library Corporation and the Chilwell Library Group to develop a set of design principles which aim to strengthen the library’s connection to Sladen Park as well as expanding and upgrading the facilities. “We want to hear from community members on whether the design principles reflect the views of the broader community and if the concept plan is on the right track.” The Chilwell Library has served the

community since 1958. Brownbill ward councillor Peter Murrihy said local libraries are at the heart of our communities and welcomed the opportunity for library members, visitors, and residents to comment on the plans for redevelopment. “The Chilwell Library is a much-loved community asset that facilitates engaging library services and vital social connections,” Cr Murrihy said. “The upgrade will provide meeting spaces that will more than double the
library’s capacity, enabling opportunities for more diverse programs, activities and events for all age groups. “Libraries are an integral part of our communities; they help encourage a lifelong love of reading and learning, support people to develop new skills, develop digital literacy, access support and information, and meet people.” The online survey is open until January 31 at https://yoursay.geelongaustralia.com.au/clr.

Car parking costs high New data compiled by EnjoyTravel has revealed Geelong has some of the highest average on-street parking costs in the country, with residents paying more for parking locally than in several capital cities. Geelong was ranked the seventh most expensive city to park, with motorists charged an average of $3.20 per hour for parking. The rate was significantly cheaper than Melbourne – the most expensive city in the country at $7 per hour – but more expensive than Brisbane, Canberra, Hobart and Darwin. However the study showed Geelong had one of the cheapest paid car parks in the country. The data revealed Market Square’s fee of $1 per hour was the second cheapest paid car parking in and around the CBDs of any of Australia’s cities. No Geelong car parks were in the top 15 most expensive in the country. For people parking overnight, the Promenade car park on Corio Street is one of the cheapest in Australia at $6.40 for 24 hours, coming in fifth. At the other end of the scale, Market Square is one of the most expensive places to park for 24 hours, with the $84 fee the sixth highest in the country. The City of Greater Geelong’s annual report showed it collected $3.1 million in parking fees during the 2020-21 financial year, however it lost a further estimated $3.4 million from its introduction of temporary free parking as a COVID-19 pandemic recovery measure.

Giving to the community By Ash Bolt The achievements and outstanding contributions of people living with disability in Greater Geelong have been celebrated in the 2021 Geelong Awards for People with Disability. The awards celebrate Geelong community members with disability who have demonstrated outstanding achievements in advocacy, leadership, empowering others or who have achieved a significant milestone or success. Award-winning artist, author and businesswoman Justine Martin received the achievement award for her work to inspire others living with disability to overcome adversity and build resilience, through sharing her own experience living with multiple sclerosis and multiple cancer diagnoses. The employment award was won by Brooke Greenhalgh, who has pursued her passion for food through her work in the hospitality industry, first at Dial a Lunch and then Bon Appetit in Highton. Brooke Boyle was the recipient of the leadership and advocacy award for her leadership role with the Geelong and Bellarine Peer Action Group, where she facilitates the monthly social lunch that brings together her peers and their families and promotes becoming stronger self-advocates. Bellarine SES volunteer Bradleigh Hudgell was the winner of the volunteering award for his 12-year commitment as a volunteer to the emergency service organisation and the wider community. Now in their sixth year, the awards recognise recipients leading in their chosen fields, advocating for equal treatment and access for those with disability and empowering those around them.

Cr Aitken said. “This year’s recipients showcase the incredible contributions of our community, their work in supporting others and in pursuing their passions.” The awards are a partnership with genU, supported by the Barwon Disability Resource Council, and the Victorian Advocacy League for Individuals with a Disability (VALiD).
Volunteer call It has been a busy spring for the Geelong SES unit as wild weather has battered the state, and now it’s looking to grow its numbers. Across the south-west region, SES volunteers responded to 575 requests for assistance between October 29 and November 4, with about 320 in the Greater Geelong and Bellarine area. During this time, Geelong SES unit volunteers were kept occupied, assisting neighbouring units as well as responding to requests locally. A small but expanding unit, the Geelong unit is looking for more members who can respond during business hours to assist during reoccurring weather events, especially those with previous leadership experience. The unit’s volunteers respond to flood, storm, tsunami, earthquake and landslide events, as well as support other agencies such as Victoria Police and Ambulance Victoria. Volunteers from the unit are trained to operate and deploy a range of resources designed to help with emergency response, including water-based rescue, a lighting trailer, and Environmental Protection Agency air monitoring devices. For the unit to continue operate and support the local community as the control agency for storms and floods, it needs community-minded people who wanted to contribute their time and skills. To learn more about joining the SES, the Geelong unit will host an information evening on Tuesday, November 30 at 7pm. Register at geelong@ses.vic.gov.au.
As we come out of lockdown, there will be more cars and people travelling throughout regional Victoria. We all have something to look forward to when we get home. So let’s be the reason everyone gets home safely this summer by sticking to the speed limits and staying alert.

Innovation, Medical Research and the Digital Economy Minister Jaala Pulford last week welcomed confirmation that Australia’s largest clinical trials provider, Nucleus Network, had opened its first satellite clinic and was recruiting trial participants in Geelong. The Geelong world-class clinical trial facility will give regional residents the opportunity
to attend appointments locally to determine their eligibility for a study, as well as allowing convenient post-study follow-up visits. The clinic is currently recruiting for two studies looking at treatments for central nervous system diseases such as multiple sclerosis and CNS lymphoma, and for non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. Both are open to healthy men and women aged between 18 and 55. Nucleus Network chief operating officer Charlotte Hall said the new clinic was a big step to improve medical research in the state.
“Through our new satellite clinic, we will be able to reach even more people and cement our position as a key partner to some of the industry’s largest and most respected clients in the sector, which is great for Australia and Victoria,” she said. Nucleus Network also has facilities in Melbourne, Brisbane and Minneapolis in the United States, and runs clinical trials for some of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the world including US-based biotechnology company, Novavax, for which it ran COVID-19 vaccine trials in Australia earlier this year.
Ms Pulford said clinical trials held in Victoria contributed more than $300 million annually to the state’s economy. She said in the past year, the government had invested more than $590 million in medical research. “New treatments would not be possible without clinical trials and Nucleus Network is one of our best international success stories – accelerating the translation of research into health outcomes that change and save lives.” Details for participating in a trial: nucleusnetwork.com/au/participate-in-a-trial/ geelong
New dog park for Lara Lara residents and their dogs are one step closer to enjoying a new fenced dog park, with works now under way on the facility at Hovells Creek Reserve. The Lara facility will be the third fenced dog park for Greater Geelong, joining existing facilities in Corio and Belmont. Windermere ward councillor and Lara resident Kylie Grzybek said the park was generating a lot of local interest. “The Lara community has been looking forward to this dog park being built and there’s been quite a bit of excitement since work at the site started,” she said. “Dogs play a special role in many people’s lives and this purpose-built facility will support the nearly 3000 registered dogs and their owners in Lara. “These parks are very popular and a great way to keep dogs and their owners healthy, active and socially connected.” The Lara dog park is set to include a dog training and obstacle area, separate spaces for
passive and active dogs, trees, sand pit and garden beds, off-street parking and seating. A drinking fountain featuring original artwork by Wadawurrung traditional owner and artist Billy-Jay O’Toole will also be installed at the site in partnership with Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation and Barwon Water. The fountain design recognises the Wadawurrung people as the traditional owners of the land, and includes educational inscriptions to raise awareness of Wadawurrung values. “My artwork depicts the importance of caring for country to encourage all to look and deeply listen to country to respect, appreciate and take care of Wadawurrung Country,” O’Toole said. The dog park is expected to be completed next month. Details: geelong.link/laradogpark Ash Bolt

The event runs at Great Ocean Road Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery, Bellbrae, from next Wednesday to February 21.

Following the suspension of in-person circuit sittings, the County Court of Victoria implemented a new process for regional matters. Under the process, all pleas and appeals against sentences are provided with a fixed listing date upon committal or appeal lodgement. “The majority of these matters were conducted virtually using video conferencing software, with appearances in court permitted under limited circumstances,” a court spokesperson said. “This has reduced the delay for these types of matters.”

Day trippers caught out in sting By Ash Bolt Police have issued more than 100 infringement notices for driving offences across the Surf Coast as part of an operation targeting day trippers from Melbourne. The three-week operation focused on reducing serious road trauma as traffic increased on regional roads following the easing of Melbourne’s travel restrictions last month. Geelong and Colac Highway Patrol officers, with support from uniform police, issued a
124 infringement notices between October 22 and November 14, including 77 for speeding – nabbing an average of about three speeding drivers per day. On one occasion, police pulled over an 18-year-old man from Grovedale who had allegedly been travelling at 172km/h in a 100km/h zone along Surf Coast Highway, Torquay, with three passengers on board. They also stopped a 34-year-old man from Point Cook who was allegedly travelling at 122km/h in an 80km/h zone on the Great Ocean Road in Bellbrae with two infants and a
woman on board. Police also caught two drivers who were allegedly under the influence of drugs, including a 42-year-old man from Curlewis and a 34-year-old man from Sunshine. Other offences detected included driving while using a mobile phone, driving an unregistered vehicle, driving while not wearing a seatbelt and driving while suspended. Police tested 168 drivers for alcohol with preliminary roadside breath tests but none returned a positive result. Surf Coast Police acting senior sergeant
Stephan Bull said ensuring drivers were staying safe on the roads would be a police priority over the summer. “The vast majority of motorists were acting responsibly and safely behind the wheel, however it only takes one speeding or inebriated driver to lead to devastating consequences,” he said. “Police will maintain a sharp focus on rural and tourist destination roads over the coming months, ensuring that all motorists get to their destination in a safe manner without putting themselves or other road users at risk.”
Groups air gas concern Climate and coastal community groups came together this week to protest the use of carbon capture storage technology in the region by the gas industry. Groups including Surfrider Foundation Australia, the Otway Climate Emergency Action Network, Extinction Rebellion, Surfers for Climate and Fridays for Future staged a protest outside the RACV Torquay Resort on Monday, where CO2CRC – a carbon capture and storage research group funded by industry and government – was holding its annual general meeting and symposium. The groups said they had no issue with carbon capture and storage research when used for agriculture, but were opposed to its use by the gas industry. Carbon capture and storage is a technology that involves capturing and storing greenhouse gas emissions, by injecting the captured greenhouse gases back into the ground, rather than releasing them into the atmosphere.
Surfrider Foundation Australia chairman Sean Doherty said the groups were concerned with the gas industry’s use of the technology, as the emissions captured on-site were only a fraction of the emissions generated when the gas was burned by consumers. “The prospect of the Great Ocean Road being further industrialised and gas rigs turning up off the Twelve Apostles has angered coastal communities right along this coast. At a time we should be reducing carbon emissions, Australia’s response is to turn one of its most recognisable tourist attractions into a gas field.” Mr Doherty said Surfrider Foundation Australia was calling for an end to all new fossil fuel exploration along coasts and opposed carbon capture and storage being used to give licence to new oil and gas. “The best way to put carbon in the ground is to leave it there in the first place,” he said. CO2CRC was contacted for comment. Ash Bolt

The pictures behind the music By Ash Bolt The iconic images of music and the stories behind them are the focus of Focal Point’s latest exhibition, ‘See The Music’. The exhibition, which features about 160 photographs taken by a range of local and well-known photographers, will open to the public next Friday. Focal Point owner Craig Watson said the exhibition featured photographs of some of the most “historically significant” moments in music. “There’s a photo in there from David Parker of Molly Meldrum interviewing Prince Charles on Countdown in 1977, which was a
disastrous moment for Molly,” he said. “There’s also a photo of Liam Gallagher from Oasis before they were famous playing at Glastonbury as a support act. The next year they were back there headlining. “Local photographer Peter Lane also has a photo of Queen from the Sunbury Music Festival when they were booed off the stage. “Freddie Mercury said the next time they came back, Queen would be the biggest band in the world, and he was right. “Peter was the only one shooting the band at the time because they weren’t that well known … it’s an amazing story.” Watson said while the exhibition had a strong rock’n’roll presence, there was a wide
variety of genres featured in ‘See The Music’. “There’s a lot of great rock’n’roll photographs, but there’s a lot of other genres represented too,” he said. “Surprisingly we have two portraits of jazz singer Eartha Kitt taken by different photographers many years apart. “There’s a cracking portrait of Marlene Dietrich … and we have some photographs from Sandy Gray, who does theatre productions. “It’s all kinds of music – I’d be very surprised if anyone came along and wasn’t able to find an act they liked. “There’s great stories behind them all and looking at them conjures up the music in your
head – that’s why it’s called ‘See The Music’.” Watson said he was pleased the exhibition was proceeding after it was previously postponed twice. “Having this exhibition is great for us as a gallery, but it’s also great for the photographers, who just want to get back to normal too. “I’m hoping we’ll see quite a few people come and have a look – a lot of the photographs are for sale, so it is a chance to own something that you’re not going to find anywhere else.” The exhibition runs from 10am-5pm, Wednesdays-Sundays between December 3 and January 30 at Focal Point in Douro Street, North Geelong.

Call for projects in need of funds
GET VACCINATED.
Corio MP Richard Marles has encouraged community groups across the Corio electorate to put forward their projects for funding. The federal government has opened expressions for the seventh round of the Stronger Communities Programme, designed to support local projects and contribute to vibrant communities. Under the program, each electorate is given $150,000, which is allows for up to 20 community grants of between $2500 and $20,000 to support community projects. Mr Marles said previous rounds of the grants had been valuable to groups in Geelong. “In the past, these grants have been successful in helping a range of organisations across Geelong, including a coaches’ box upgrade at the North Shore Football Club and a youth wellbeing zone at CentreStage Theatre Company,” he said. “Grants can have a big impact in the community and these will help build back community groups activities.” The North Shore Football Club received $19,998 under the program in 2019, which allowed it to build a two-level coaches’ box at Windsor Park. CentreStage received just over $17,300 under the previous round earlier this year to purchase a shipping container to be used as a wellbeing zone for young people. For the seventh round, the grants will be able to fund 100 per cent of eligible project costs. Community consultation is a critical element of the program and in consultation with their community, each MP will identify potential applicants and projects in their electorate. Identified projects will then be invited to apply for a grant. Expressions of interest close 5pm Wednesday, December 1.

The Guide PICK OF THE WEEK ENDEAVOUR ABC TV, Friday, 8.30pm
THE LARKINS ABC TV, Saturday, 7.30pm There are times for hard-hitting drama, and there are times for a cup of tea with two oversized spoonfuls of sugar: welcome to The Larkins. This adaptation doesn’t try to rewrite the story one iota. It’s a smart move – the world could do with sweetness and this dramedy offers it in spades. There’s a danger that fans of the original won’t appreciate the nostalgia, but new viewers with fresh eyes are likely to fall in love with the large workingclass Larkin family from 1950s rural Kent. The meandering story, starring The Chase host Bradley Walsh and Joanna Scanlan (pictured), features some wonderfully over-the-top sets.
A sophisticated prequel to the Inspector Morse series, Endeavour is a real treat. If you’re hankering for an escape from the doldrums of the 2020s, here’s your answer, complete with a cool soundtrack and many detailed nods to a bygone era. We’re transported to 1971, with crossword-loving, whisky-swilling Endeavour Morse (Shaun Evans) facing his inner demons as delves into the shady world of soccer. In “Striker”, which Evans directed, Endeavour plays bodyguard to a soccer star who has been threatened by the IRA. He is also faced with a bomb attack at an Oxford college that has political ramifications.
LEGO MASTERS BRICKSMAS SPECIAL Nine, Sunday, 7pm
DAN BROWN’S THE LOST SYMBOL 10, Monday, 8.30pm
No longer the new kid on the block, this Aussie rendition of the British format is arguably the most popular version in the world. This Hamish Blake-led, family-friendly romp has now clocked up three seasons, making it the longest-running LEGO Masters anywhere. Now, a festive Christmas special with a bevy of wellknown guests is proving again that good things come in small (brick-like) packages. In the jubilant finale, Sophie Monk, Scott Cam (pictured), Brooke Boney and their teammates have one last hurrah before finding out who will be crowned the LEGO Masters Bricksmas winners.
Aussie actor Ashley Zukerman (pictured, Rush, Succession) takes on the big task of succeeding Tom Hanks in this new series. Based on one of Dan Brown’s most popular tomes, it’s fascinating to see the story in long form, and not in a movie or a book. It’s a mixed result as viewers are taken on a bombastic journey with Harvard University symbologist Robert Langdon (Zukerman). The young professor is faced with a series of deadly puzzles when his esteemed mentor is mysteriously kidnapped. The plot doesn’t always stick to the book, but Zukerman is a great, wideeyed fit for the fabled character.

Viva Energy’s Gas Terminal Project Community Meeting November 29 th Focus: Marine Ecology & Sustainability Sustainability has been at the core of planning for the floating gas terminal proposed for Geelong Refinery. Seventeen technical reports have now been completed as part of the extensive Environment Effects Statement (EES) process, and the findings will inform the design, construction and operating plans for the new facility to minimise its environmental footprint. Visionary Energy Hub for Geelong The Gas Terminal is at the centre of Viva Energy’s plan to transform the Geelong Refinery into a visionary energy hub to support Victoria’s evolving energy needs. Other proposed projects focus on alternative fuels like hydrogen, and renewable energy and emissions reduction – including a solar energy farm next to the refinery. The Energy Hub investments will diversify the refinery operation, which makes a major contribution to the Geelong economy and provides jobs for 700+ people. The gas terminal project alone means construction jobs for 150–200 people and permanent positions for 50–70 more – bringing new skills, economic activity and opportunities for Geelong.
Gas for Victoria The Gas Terminal would bring in up to 40 Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) ships each year to boost natural gas supply in south-east Australia. Victoria needs a new source of gas to replace declining supply and avoid projected shortages in coming years. Two million Victorian households rely on gas for heating, hot water and cooking. And gas is essential for many businesses too – 50 per cent of gas used in Geelong supports local industry. Gas supports the growing use of renewable energy, and will be a critical part of the energy mix for many years to come.

Focus on Marine Ecology & Sustainability Despite its industrial history, Corio Bay is healthy and marine life is thriving, according to recent studies. Modelling of proposed terminal operations show there will be little change in the water discharge to the bay, and the local marine environment won’t be adversely affected by the addition of the new terminal. A community drop-in session on November 29th will showcase sustainability initiatives and recent marine ecology studies, including seawater use and potential effects on the bay. Experts will be on hand to discuss these and other studies including terrestrial ecology, Ramsar wetlands, dredging, and greenhouse gas emissions. Details below.

A life dedicated to volunteering For deacdes, Ken Mansfield has dedicated his time to volunteering. The Highton resident was recently recognised at the Victorian Senior of the Year awards. He speaks with Ash Bolt.
K
en Mansfield enjoys being able to help other people. He has spent many years volunteering with Rotary and helping out with local events. Earlier this month, his extensive volunteer work was acknowledged, with Ken receiving the COTA Victorian Senior Achiever Award at the 2021 Victorian Senior of the Year awards. Ken said he was “very surprised and very humbled” to receive the award. “You don’t do things for the recognition, but it is nice that someone out thought highly enough of me to nominate me for the award,” he said. In his nomination, Ken was lauded for his “mix of expertise, commitment and generosity” to sports clubs and volunteer organisations, as well as inspiring others to also give back to the community. Among Ken’s volunteer achievements has been 45 years spent as a member of the Rotary Club of Highton. “I’ve been a member since the inaugural meeting in 1975,” he said. With Rotary, Ken was the driving force behind the Barwon Banks Fun Run, which raised much-needed funds for the Give Where You Live Foundation. Ken initiated the event more than 25 years ago and dedicated his time to plotting out the route each year and measuring the track. He said it was “satisfying” to see the support the event had been able to provide to Give Where You Live over the years, which in turn went to supporting community organisations throughout the Geelong region. He has also served as the president of the Geelong Business Club and been involved with supporting the Lorne Pier to Pub for more than 40 years as a volunteer. “I’ve been helping down in Lorne for a number of years,” Ken said. “It’s a really good event down there and I’ve always thought that if there is need for a little bit of help, I’m happy to help out. “So I go down there every year and do what I can.” Having committed plenty of his time to volunteering across the community, Ken said he got enjoyment out of being able to help people. “It’s hard to answer when people ask why you do it,” he said. “It’s just one of those things that feels like it’s the right thing to do.
Ken Mansfield. (Ivan Kemp) 258788_08
“If you have the time and experience to help other people, then you just do it. “I get a lot of satisfaction from seeing others benefit with my support, especially when its something they can’t do for themselves. “It’s a very rewarding feeling to help others.” Along with his volunteering, Ken has also used his other passion – cycling – to give back. A regular participant with the Geelong and Surf Coast Cycling Club, which he has been a foundation member of since 1977, Ken has also used his bicycle to raise money for charity. About 15 years ago, Ken joined with 10-15 other cyclists to ride across the Nullabor from Perth to Melbourne to raise money for the Fred Hollows Foundation. Although he can’t remember exactly how much money the trip raised, he said it was one of the greatest experiences of his life.

“It took 21 days to get from Perth to Melbourne on the push bike,” he said. “It was really something. It was a great experience. “Looking back on it, that is one of the highlights of my life. It’s one of the achievements I look back on with pride.” While raising money was the main focus, the trip was also a significant step in helping Ken achieve one of his life goals. He said three years ago he had finally achieved his dream to cycle his way around Australia, albeit doing it in several smaller trips. “I always wanted to ride all the way around Australia and see the whole country,” he said. “I did it as several trips over a long time – it started with a first leg around the time of the bicentenary [in 1988] when I rode from

Melbourne to Sydney. “The trip across the Nullarbor was the biggest one, but there were quite a few other big ones, like Perth up to the north of Western Australia like Broome and those areas. “I was finally able to finish it off about three years ago when I was able to go cycling around Tasmania, which I had left until last. “It took 30 years, but I was able to cycle all the way around Australia.” Pushing himself and testing his physical limits has been a feature of Ken’s life, highlighted by his decision to hike the Kokoda Track at 70 years old. Originally set up as a fundraiser, Ken said he initially had trouble convincing tour companies to take him along for the trip, but was able to show his fitness, stamina and mental strength and made it along the gruelling hike. He said it was experience he was immensely proud of. Now 84 years old, Ken said he would continue to volunteer and keep active as long as he could but he had found “age makes you slow down”. Ken was one of 15 people to receive a COTA Victorian Senior Achiever Award this year. The award recognises “significant contributions to local communities and Victoria” and are one of the major awards given out during at the Victorian Senior of the Year awards, held during Seniors Week each year. Disability, Ageing and Carers Minister James Merlino said the awards were a chance to recognise and celebrate the achievements and support of seniors in the community. “Senior Victorians are the backbone of our communities, generously sharing their skills, time, kindness and care every day,” he said. “The Victorian Senior of the Year Awards are our chance to say thanks to the many senior Victorians who make our state stronger and fairer. “Despite the challenges of 2021, senior Victorians continue to step up, adapt and give back to their community in a range of ways – as advocates, local leaders, and as volunteers providing invaluable support to their communities. “The stories of senior Victorians highlighted through the 2021 Victorian Senior of the Year Awards are truly inspiring. “Senior Victorians continue to go above and beyond to help others, increase community connection, promote cultural and social inclusion, and create lasting change.”

Frances Diver championing the region’s health services Having been welcomed to her role as chief executive of Barwon Health in April, 2019, Frances Diver had a myriad of challenges awaiting her leadership experience. An exceptional show of resilience, determination and expert management has led Frances to being named the 2021 Business Leader of the Year at the Geelong Business Excellence Awards. Following a major cyber security incident in October, 2019, which saw hospital ICT systems cut off for an extended period, Frances continued to display a levelheaded approach to forming and executing strategies to overcome challenges and lead Barwon Health to deliver on its vision for the future. Prior to the virtual awards night being held on Tuesday, October 19, Frances was contacted by the Geelong Chamber of Commerce and notified that she had been nominated by her team for the 2021 Business Leader of the Year Award, sponsored by Bay 93.9FM. “Considering the fact that I’m still fairly new to the Geelong region, I was delighted and thrilled to be acknowledged as an award nominee, even as a new arrival,” Frances explains. Of the application and entry process, Frances says it was a great experience to step back and review all the success she has achieved as head of Barwon Health. “It was a really good opportunity for me to reflect on my own leadership, on what I had achieved and what drives me as a leader,” she says. “I was interviewed by the judging panel and we had a really enjoyable chat over Zoom, it was really good to be forced to articulate what I’m on about from people external to our organisation.” Having initially started her career in the health industry as a nurse and midwife, Frances

impressed the judging panel through her years of experience in the health care industry – both in a clinical and leadership capacity. “Being named as the winner of this award reflects the leadership of the Barwon Health and healthcare workers as a whole and across the community – we can all share the award and the acknowledgement in how we, as an organisation, have responded to the pandemic
and other challenges,” Frances says. With recent achievements including the large-scale roll-out of COVID testing, contact tracing and the Barwon South West region’s vaccine program, Frances has displayed a natural ability to deal with strategic business operations, governmental politics and positive staff engagement. Frances’ team will be taking her out to
dinner in the coming weeks to celebrate her win in a COVID-safe manner. As for what’s next, Frances isn’t quite satisfied just yet. “We’ve had lots of positive feedback from staff and the community, we’ve been getting some really great comments,” she says. “There’s still plenty of work to be done!” Elle Cecil

Shane Lockyer and Joe Atkinson. (Joe van der Hurk)
Four decades of top mechanical service Keleman Motors is a well-respected name in Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula and has been for more than 40 years. Shane Lockyer and Joe Atkinson took ownership of the region’s only independent Mazda specialist three years ago and Shane says it’s meticulous workmanship and customer focus that’s seen them continue building on a solid foundation. “We offer a strictly honest approach to workmanship of the highest quality,” Shane says. “We’re also known for our fair prices.”
The duo each has more than 15 years’ experience in the trade and make sure looking after their customers is a top priority as they carry out servicing and repairs to all makes and models. “There’s just the two of us in the workshop,” Joe says, “so customers can talk directly to the mechanic actually doing the work. And we always take time to explain in detail any issues their car may have. “No work is ever carried out without approval, but we’ll recommend what a vehicle
needs. Then the decision is left to the customer whether to go ahead.” Shane finishes by saying, “It’s just a two-man show but we do it right – price and quality-wise.” Keleman Motors, Factory 3, 13-15 Crown Street, South Geelong. Opens 8am-5.30pm Monday-Friday; by appointment Saturday. Inquiries: 5229 9555 or visit www. kelemanmotors.com.au

Orange Ball a hit with youngsters LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers The Tennis Geelong Orange Ball competition is gaining momentum, with 20 teams signing up for term four. Orange Ball has become the first step for introducing kids into competition from coaching, and is a great opportunity for the kids to play while they are still developing the skills to play a match. With lower compression balls and a smaller court (three-quarters of the size of a regulation court) the kids, and a lot of the parents, are learning some of the rules as well as how to rally before progressing to the full size court. The Orange Ball competition has been on offer from Tennis Geelong since February, 2020, but with COVID interruptions, has had a patchy start. Now that life is more settled, this competition has sprung back to life. Initially this competition was a five-week season each school term, but term four has seen an increase to seven weeks to make the

most of time available leading into Christmas. The 20 teams are split into three sections – Barty, DeMinaur and Alcott – with teams coming from 12 different clubs. The format for play is based on the current junior format of four players, any mix of boys and girls, each playing a singles and doubles match. The matches are played as Fast4 sets, so first to four games, with sudden death deuce. While scores are recorded, the competition is about learning the game, and it’s a great opportunity for the family to be involved, with parents directing play and scoring, while siblings act as ball kids to keep the matches moving. All of the teams are having fun, and having some wins, so no doubt we will see some of these juniors move into the Green Ball ranks next year.

Huxtable on a form high By Ash Bolt Competitive surfing was back after a six-month break last weekend and Jan Juc’s Xavier Huxtable showed his talent, taking out the win at the first round of the Victorian Open Series as part of the West Coast Surf Festival. Huxtable dominated Saturday’s competition at Jan Juc, scoring more than 16 points out of a possible 20 in every heat he surfed and finishing in the final with a 16.10 heat total. Point Lonsdale’s Bohdie Williams finished second with 15.60 points, while Jan Juc’s Tully Wylie and Willis Droomer finished third and fourth with 14.80 and 10.87 points 22 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 26 November, 2021
respectively. In the women’s division, former Australian junior champion and Barwon Heads local Ellie Harrison was just bested by Sophie Fletcher in the final, finishing second with 13.17 points. Jan Juc’s Zoe Clarke finished third with 10.77 points and Torquay’s Emily McGettigan rounded out the top four with 7.86 points. There was a slight increase in swell on Sunday as the competition moved back to Bells Beach for the Victorian Team Titles. Reigning champion Torquay Boardriders Club was the strongest on the day but missed on claiming the win after being docked five points for an incorrect board swap in the final. After breaking his board, Huxtable

swapped his board with team mate Cahill Bell-Warren, who was waiting in the water in the change-over zone as the next surfer for Torquay, which was not allowed according to the Surfing Australia rule book. The penalty left them with a score of 35.50, falling short of Phillip Island Boardriders’ 35.87. However Torquay continued its dominance in the junior division, leaving the rest of the field in its wake, with a combined heat total of 40.93 – almost double the second-placed Peninsula Surfriders. In the new female-only division, Torquay secured the inaugural win with heat total of 37.63.
The inner harbour of Corio Bay is still proving to be the number one snapper location with plenty of anglers landing fish to 80 centimetres. Fishing off Wagim Walk with baits such as pilchard and squid have been accounting for a lot of snapper captures, soft plastics have been working well also. Anglers fishing out of small tinnies and kayaks have been having the best success as they can get there lures right into the structure – please be aware that you are not allowed to fish off the yacht club pontoon and piers. There has also been plenty of quality other species cruising about at the moment including flathead, salmon, trevally and whiting in the same area. Clifton Springs has been pretty slow at the moment with the cold weather and cold water making the snapper quite tricky to catch – there are still some reports of anglers finding a fish here and there. The Bellarine Light Game and Sport Fishing Club had its annual Ron Kitchen Memorial Snapper Competition with the winning fish weighing in at 4.5kg. Most members were fishing the Quarries and the Point Richards spoil grounds. Queenscliff is still providing some fantastic squid and whiting as of late, the grass beds up to Swan Bay have been holding good numbers of fish and some quite big ones too. The squid in the bight have also been chewing quite well, as per usual fishing the slack tide has been best as you’re not drifting quicker than your jig can sink. Offshore Barwon Heads has been a snapper hot spot lately with fish holding in great numbers, straight off the bluff in 50 metres of water has been super productive. Gone fishing charters has been knee deep in the action lately getting customers stuck into heaps of snapper to four kilograms. Port Welshpool has been a popular location over the past week or two for big snapper and gummy sharks with lots if reports coming through of fish exceeding eight kilograms in weight. Peri Stavropoulos and Bryce Nurnaitis from Trellys Geelong ventured down landing snapper to 5.5kg in weight. Wurdi Buloc Reservoir has been a popular location for trout and redfin with anglers getting stuck into some nice fish. Both species have been chewing well on shallow hardbody lures and the humble Mudeye has been accounting for its fair share of fish also.

SPORT Western United kick off the A-League season Western United was not able to get its A-League season off to a positive start in Geelong on Saturday, falling 1-0 to Melbourne Victory. Just over 8000 fans filed into GMHBA Stadium for United’s second game in Geelong in two weeks, with a goal in the 76th minute to Victory’s Roderick Miranda proving to be the difference. United players were left frustrated in the 82nd minute when they thought skipper Alessandro Diamanti should have been awarded a penalty. United coach John Aloisi said while he hated losing, there was a lot to take out of the game. “It was very positive from our side, we played well,” he said. “We created some good openings in the first half and we had a couple of good opportunities. “It was disappointing of course that we lost
the game, as we didn’t feel like we deserved to lose that. “In the end if we keep on performing like that and improving and we will improve, the results will come our way.” Aloisi said he didn’t have a clear view of the no-call on the penalty for Diamanti, but said his players were adamant there should have been one. Ben Garuccio, Dylan Wenzel-Halls, Connor Pain and Aleksandar Prijovic all had chances for United throughout the game. Aloisi said while he was happy with a lot of the game, there were some areas they would need to work on. He said once they controlled the ball in the middle of the ground, they were able to find more openings. “The final ball let us down at times, some decision making in the final third let us down,” he said.
“That will come the more the team plays together, the more we gel. We created some really good chances. “A set piece we got undone by.” Western United will now head back to Melbourne for the next two games before returning to Geelong for two games in early December. United will play Wellington Phoenix at GMHBA Stadium in an FFA Cup round of 32 match on December, before backing it up with an A-League clash against Brisbane Roar on December 11.

Carnival fun for junior lifesavers
Stewart returns Tom Stewart.

By Ash Bolt Reigning Geelong best and fairest winner Tom Stewart has returned to the track following a foot injury that prematurely ended his 2021 season. Stewart injured his lisfranc ligament at training before Geelong’s round 22 game against St Kilda and missed the club’s finals campaign. But the defender has had a strong off-season in the gym and has started running again ahead of the official start of pre-season training. Geelong general manager of football Simon Lloyd said Stewart had been “faultless” in his rehabilitation from the injury. “Tom has been completing 10 kilometre sessions twice per week,” Lloyd said. “This is his pre-pre-season and we’re seeing him in at the club most days and he’s working
closely with a group of half a dozen other players doing running and kicking with that group of players. “He’s building up his loading and doing everything from change of direction, running, jumping, kicking. “He’s in a really good place.” Lloyd said the club’s medical staff had worked with industry experts to set a detailed plan for Stewart’s recovery, which was reaping rewards. “He’s been guided very closely by our strength and conditioning and physio departments and we’re liaising closely with external experts,” Lloyd said. “He’s been fastidious with his attention to detail, particularly ticking off all his performance indicators. “Tom’s focus is on being in a good place prior to the start of pre-season. He’s really excited and ready to have some fun leading into the
pre-season.” Stewart will officially return to the club for pre-season training with all five-year-plus players from December 6. He’ll have a few new teammates, with the AFL draft taking place this week. Geelong was not involved in the first round of the draft on Wednesday night, having previously traded its first round pick to Richmond last year. However the Cats did strengthen their hand for the second night of the draft, completing a pick swap with the Western Bulldogs. The trade took place before a player had been selected, with the Cats acquiring pick 23 in exchange for selections 32 and 34. It was also a nervous night for Geelong Falcons draft hopefuls Mitch Knevitt and Toby Conway, with neither player selected in the first round.
Lifesavers from Anglesea, Jan Juc, Lorne, Ocean Grove and Torquay Surf Life Saving Clubs were among 500 competitors who competed in back-to-back senior and junior aquatic sport carnivals at Mt Martha Life Saving Club this weekend. On Saturday, the senior competitors put on a spectacle in swim, board, ski and rescue and resuscitation events. The following day, the juniors took to the stage, returning to their first carnival in nine months and their first event since Victoria’s sixth lockdown lifted. LSV aquatic sport manager Simon Butterly said for many of the under eight and nine competitors, it was their first ever aquatic sports carnival and they did themselves and their clubs proud, displaying good sportsmanship and promising skills as future lifesavers. “Life Saving Victoria is delighted to return to competition, especially for our junior competitors who had their first aquatic sports outing in nine months,” Mr Butterly said. “Our junior competitors are not only the future of our sport, but the future of our patrol force, who upon completing junior competition at the end of under13s, will complete their surf rescue certificate and begin patrolling across our 57 lifesaving clubs. “The skills gained in competition, such as board paddling and rescues, resuscitation and surf swimming are vital in our juniors’ journey to becoming community lifesavers in future. “To have almost 400 junior competitors in our first carnival for season 2021-22 means the future is bright for LSV.” The carnival provided junior and senior competitors with an opportunity to develop competition skills in a fun setting, in preparation for the Victorian Championships early next year. LSV competition continues this weekend, with Port Campbell Surf Life Saving Club hosting the Victorian Surf Rowers League’s second carnival for the season on Saturday, Jan Juc Surf Life Saving Club hosting senior competitors for a craft and swim competition on the same day and the juniors returning to the sand at Altona Life Saving Club on Sunday for an all-age beach carnival.
