Anzac Day dawns anew

Thousands of Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast residents came together to commemorate Anzac Day on Monday, April 25. It was the first time in more than two years that Anzac Day services weren’t impacted by COVID-19 gathering restrictions. Record numbers were recorded at dawn services, marches and commemorative services in Geelong and across the Bellarine. The Geelong RSL said it was an important day for all Australians. “Anzac Day is a day to honour and pay respect to the service men and women whose legacy is the freedom we enjoy today,” it said. “It is a day to honour and pay respect to the current men and women of our defence force who remain diligent, and to remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice before them.” Geelong also had a special visitor for Anzac Day, with the HMAS Parramatta navy ship sailing in for the weekend. ■ Photos:

Budget is back in black By Ash Bolt For the first time in more than two years, the City of Greater Geelong’s budget is back in the black. At Tuesday’s meeting, the council endorsed its draft budget, which included a $107,000 operating surplus over the next 12 months. “The last two years has seen Geelong council budget for significant annual deficits due to COVID-19,” finance portfolio chair Anthony Aitken said. “Such deficits are not sustainable, and we have worked hard to deliver a break-even budget for 2022-23. “Continued deficits affect our borrowings, capital spend and ability to respond to

community needs. “Delivering a break-even budget straight after COVID-19, and in a rate capping environment of 1.75 per cent, is a major financial achievement for council, while maintaining significant commitments and meeting the demands the continued population growth is placing on us.” Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said the council had put together a “balanced” budget that managed ensuring the city was in a stable fiscal position while also providing the infrastructure and services needed by the community. A key feature in the budget will be a 1.75 per cent rate rise. However Cr Aitken said the way the state government’s rating system worked, combined with increasing property values in the region,

meant most homeowners would see larger increases. Cr Aitken said revaluations showed properties in the Bellarine ward had increased by an average of 30 per cent, while the remaining wards saw an average of 20 to 25 per cent. That meant residential rate revenue would rise by 4.54 per cent, which would see an extra $60 added to the average rate bill. However with industrial and commercial property values not matching that growth, they will see their average rates bills drop by $300 to $500. Cr Aitken said the rate differential created a better balance between the share of rates paid by residential and commercial ratepayers. Along with the rate increase, the city intends to borrow $71.3 million, including $14.8

million carried over from previous years. The income will help the city to provide its record capital works spend of $206.6 million, which Cr Aitken said would make sure the city was responding to needs of its growing population. Almost 30 per cent of the capital works budget will go towards two projects, with $50.4 million allocated to the Northern Aquatic Hub in Norlane and $10.7 million to the North Bellarine Aquatic Centre in Drysdale. There is also significant funding for libraries, with $7 million for the Armstrong Creek Town Centre Library, $6.15 million for the Drysdale Library and $1.4 million for the Chilwell Library. ■ Continued:

COUNCIL’S PROPOSED 2022–23 BUDGET MESSAGE FROM THE DEPUTY MAYOR, CR TRENT SULLIVAN Council’s Proposed 2022-23 Budget is available for everyone to read and offer feedback. After two years in which COVID restrictions have meant we’ve run operational deﬁcits – as a result of facilities closures and our community support packages – next ﬁnancial year is about budget repair. The Council is meeting its commitment to get back in the black, with a small forecast operating surplus of just over $100,000. We are doing this while budgeting for a capital projects spend of more than $206 million. This means we are continuing to invest heavily in community places such as

PROPOSED BUDGET AT A GLANCE Average residential property value: $730,655 Total rates and waste charges on an average residential property: $1826.42 Total expenditure: $430 million Capital works program: $206.6 million Underlying surplus: $0.1 million

libraries, swimming pools, sporting facilities, footpaths and playgrounds.

budget will increase every year for the next four.

We have included funding for all of the projects we listed in our four-year forward budget last year. We have also maintained service levels to a total value of $353 million.

We are also moving to sell some assets that we don’t consider part of our longterm plans – including both the Civic and Busport car parks in central Geelong.

One of the strategic decisions we have made is to progressively invest a greater share of funding in asset renewal. We now have more than $3.1 billion in assets to maintain when you factor in buildings, roads, footpaths, drainage, parks and reserves and more. To keep these assets in a condition that meets the community’s expectations, we’re proposing that our asset renewal

From the four properties proposed for sale, we estimate we would raise around $52 million, which will help us keep borrowings to a manageable level while still investing in new and renewed community facilities. Everything in the proposed budget is open to feedback until 24 May – with our ﬁnal budget to be endorsed at the end of June. You can visit yoursay.geelongaustralia. com.au to have your say.

Impaired drivers nabbed in blitz By Ash Bolt More than 35 impaired drivers have been nabbed across the region as part of Victoria Police’s combined Easter and Anzac Day road safety blitz. Police wrapped up Operation Compass on Monday night and revealed nine drink-drivers and 14 drug drivers had been caught in the Geelong area over the 12-day operation. A further 11 drink drivers and three drug drivers were caught on the Surf Coast. Speeding continued to be the major issue in

the region, with 92 speeding offences recorded in Geelong and 145 on the Surf Coast. There were also 13 disqualified driver caught on the road across both areas, 17 unlicensed drivers, seven seatbelt offences, 23 drivers caught using their phones behind the wheel, 60 unregistered vehicles on the roads and nine impoundments. The offences were some of the almost 13,000 traffic offences detected across the state during Operation Compass. Victoria Police road policing acting assistant commissioner David Clayton said

it was a disappointingly high number of offences recorded. “It is disappointing that police detected almost 13,000 offences during Operation Compass – that’s almost 13,000 instances of people making poor decisions and putting themselves and others at risk on the road,” he said. “Tragically five lives were lost during Easter – four of them pedestrians struck by vehicles. With worsening weather conditions and reduced visibility as winter approaches it is imperative motorists and pedestrians look out for one another. “While our statewide operation may have

concluded rest assured police enforcement against poor road user behaviour remains ongoing. We will be doing everything to protect our most vulnerable road users.” Across the state, almost 40 per cent of offences detected were for speeding, with 579 motorists caught driving more than 25km/h over the speed limit. There were 855 motorists caught drink or drug driving from more than 182,000 roadside tests, as well as 453 drivers nabbed for driving while disqualified or suspended and 464 for driving while unlicensed.

Men urged to hit the dance floor The Geelong Ballroom Dance Club is trying a new approach to get more people dancing, by putting the focus on the men. The club is hoping to get men who’ve avoided taking dancing lessons out of embarrassment to take up a free six-week course. Club president Alan Anstis said the idea was to get the men confident in their abilities before bringing in the women. “We’ve found men are more hesitant to take up dancing and a lot of it is because they’re not confident,” he said. “When I started, I thought I had two left feet like most men do, but all it takes is

some practice. “We’re hoping by having lessons for just men will take the pressure off them and they can learn the correct posture and everything else so they’re ready to lead when their partners.” Committee member Dawn Bagshaw said the classes were “win-win”. “Every woman wants to learn how to ballroom dance but men have to lead the woman, so having that confidence is very helpful,” she said. “We’re hopeful it will get more people dancing – we see a lot of older people but we’re missing out on people in that 20-40 age bracket

that we’re hopeful will take up dancing. “It’s a lot of fun and a really good social activity that also provides good exercise, so we just want to see some more people give it a try.” The classes, led by experienced instructor and dancer Jose Garrido-Palacios, start from 6.30pm on Thursday, May 5 at The Ballroom in Hamlyn Heights. Anyone interested can contact Alan on 0403 704 035 to register. Ms Bagshaw said the club was also looking at a similar course designed for women.

The federal government will provide a North Geelong business with $1.76 million to boost its defence manufacturing capabilities. Victorian senator Sarah Henderson announced last week Marand Precision Engineering would receive the grant as part of the government’s $2.5 billion Modern Manufacturing Strategy. Ms Henderson said the grant would allow Marand to develop an integrated welding centre for advanced steel alloys in North Geelong. “This project will implement a welding centre with hardware, software and ancillaries to enable the ‘survivability of modern military platforms using high-grade ballistic steels’,” she said. “This will fill a significant gap in the nation’s military manufacturing capacity and provide potential export opportunities for future projects.” The majority of manufacturing work for the project will be based at the North Geelong site, with additional work completed at Marand’s Moorabbin site. Liberal Candidate for Corio Manish Patel said the announcement represented significant investment in local manufacturing. “With unemployment in Geelong at just 1.9 per cent, I am delighted about the many ways in which the Morrison Government is supporting the people of Corio,” he said. The grant to Marand comes just weeks after Hanwha Defense Australia began works on its Howitzer defence project at Avalon Airport. Hanwha Defense Australia is constructing a $170 million armoured vehicle centre of excellence facility for the $1 billion defence project which will create at least 300 jobs, including 100 construction jobs.

Pool project given green light By Ash Bolt A planning permit has been issued for the long-awaited outdoor pool in Drysdale, paving the way for construction work to start soon. The planning approval for the stage one $15.5 million outdoor facility came as the City of Greater Geelong released community feedback on its plans for stage two of the development. The city is trying to secure $45 million in joint funding from the Victorian and Australian governments to deliver stage two. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said more than 160 submissions were received, including seven submissions from local and aquatic groups. “For too long the Bellarine community has

had less access to aquatic facilities than other areas of Greater Geelong, so we’re excited that work will start on the outdoor pool within weeks,” he said. “The stage one facility will provide more than 3500 students from neighbouring schools with essential learn-to-swim facilities, as well as lap swimming, water exercise and general recreation for the broader community. “It’s clear community support is there for stage two, and we hope to see funding commitments from the major parties in the lead up to the state and federal elections.” Stage one of the development received $10 million from the federal government, with the city contributing the remaining $5.5 million.

“North Bellarine residents will no longer face drives of up to 35 minutes to the nearest 50-metre outdoor pool when the new facility opens next year,” Bellarine Ward councillor Jim Mason said. “Sustainability is a key priority, and the facility will be powered using a 16kw solar system. The city team will also plant more than 100 trees, deliver shade areas, car parking for 60 cars plus two electric vehicle charging stations.” The indicative plan stage two was developed from community submissions made to council in April 2021 and further consultation with the North Bellarine Aquatic Centre Advocacy Group.

The plan includes a warm water pool for hydrotherapy, indoor learn-to-swim and aqua play facilities, as well as a gym, group fitness space and indoor change facilities. Further community feedback was collected across November and December, which found almost three-quarters (73 per cent) of respondents felt the plans were what they had imagined or close. The city said 83 per cent of respondents said they would use the stage two facility and 71 per cent were supportive of the city advocating for government funding based on the current plan. A final engagement report on the project will be released mid-year.

Hunting for tree hollows Cr Sullivan said all the community needed to do if it spotted a hollow was take a photo and record it online at geelong.link/hollowshunt. All the tree hollows can be viewed on an interactive map at the city’s public open data platform, Geelong Data Exchange. Environment portfolio chair Jim Mason said data collected would help the city, scientists, researchers and policy makers to better understand and protect important natural resources. “This project will help the city to understand the importance of tree hollows and plan for the future of native wildlife. We need to take action today because a hollow can take 100 years or more to form,” Cr Mason said. “We’d love to see local citizen scientists involved in this project. It’s a great example of how we’re using smart technology to support data-driven decisions.”

The City of Greater Geelong is calling for people to help identify tree hollows that could be suitable for animal nesting. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said the Hollow Hunt project aimed to build a clearer picture of tree hollow resources across the city. “Tree hollows can be found in streets, parks and reserves right across Greater Geelong – from Hovells Creek at Lara to the banks of the Barwon River at Fyansford and the beautiful nature reserves on the Bellarine,” he said. “So many native birds, mammals and reptiles rely on tree hollows including bats, frogs, skinks, possums, gliders, owls, parrots, rosellas, cockatoos and kookaburras. “Improving the quality of our data will help us understand how the loss of these old trees can be managed to minimise impacts on people and wildlife.”

Torquay Lions Club’s annual charity bowls day has been hailed as a success after raising $7500 for the Torquay SES Unit. The charity day went ahead on Friday, April 22 after previously being cancelled in January due to COVID-19 restrictions. Torquay Lions president Neil Roche said more than 100 generous bowlers from Torquay, Anglesea and Ocean Grove and sponsors helped the club raise much-needed funds for the emergency services unit. “The weather was perfect for the day’s bowls on Torquay Bowls Club’s two greens with 120 bowlers vying for $700 prize money,” Mr Roche said. “Raffles and silent auctions were the main fundraisers on the day.” Mr Roche said the region’s SES volunteers did wonderful work and he hoped the funds would help ensure they had all the necessary equipment to respond to emergencies.

He said not all required equipment was provided by government funding or grants. He added the day continued the Lions Club’s support for the region’s emergency services. “The last bowls day we organised raised funds for Torquay and Bellbrae fire brigades,” Mr Roche said. The day was sponsored by local businesses, who supplied prizes for raffles, including Champion Blinds. Owner Craig Smith said it was important to support local fundraisers. “Torquay Lions do a great job in our community,” he said. “They help out in so many ways, not only raising funds for worthy projects, but also assisting people needing help locally, nationally and internationally.” Mr Roche said the club had already handed over the funds to the unit, to allow it to be put to use as soon as possible.

The budget also includes a $4.2 million commitment to the Lara Recreation Reserve, $2 million for Osborne House and $2.3 million for Landy Field. In line with the council’s new 10-year Asset Plan, a greater share of funding will be used to improve the condition of ageing assets across Greater Geelong. A total of $45.6 million has been allocated to renew existing assets in 2022-23 with the sum to rise every year – to $56.9 million in the forecast 2025-26 budget. Cr Aitken said the council had previous been underfunding asset renewal in previous years and needed to gradually increase the amount spent ensuring the City’s $3.6 billion worth of assets were in useable condition for the community. Cr Sullivan added the draft budget struck the right balance in catering to the growth of the region and ensuring assets were upgraded in established communities. “Council has made a strategic decision to increase the amount of funds we use on revitalising older infrastructure across Greater Geelong,” he said. “We have also honoured the commitments we unveiled last year, and added further projects that align with council’s sustainability goals.” The council has also committed $9 million to its Community Grants program.

Geelong will get a new urgent care medical clinic to divert patients away from over-burdened hospital emergency clinics if a Labor government is elected next month. Corio MP Richard Marles and Corangamite MP Libby Coker visited University Hospital Geelong’s emergency department on Tuesday to announce Geelong would be one of at least 50 locations across the country to receive a Medicare Urgent Care Clinic. The clinic would be part of an initial trial, which would see a Labor federal government invest at least $135 million over four years. Mr Marles said Corio and Corangamite families were struggling to access emergency care and were facing increasing pressure from rising out-of-pocket costs to see a GP. He said the Medicare Urgent Care Clinic would take the pressure off hospital emergency departments by providing an alternative option for families needing urgent care from a doctor or nurse. The clinic would treat sprains and broken bones, cuts, wounds, insect bites, minor ear and eye problems and minor burns and would be bulk-billed. Mr Marles said it would be open seven days a week from at least 8 am to 10 pm, which was when most non-life-threatening injuries occur. “These clinics are a key part of Labor’s plan to strengthen Medicare by making it easier to see a doctor,” he said. “Medicare Urgent Care Clinics will take the pressure off emergency departments, so they can concentrate on saving lives.” Ms Coker said the initiative was particularly needed in the growing Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast region. “An Urgent Care Clinic in the Geelong region will give people in the communities I represent

Mates fan the flames of success While lockdown was tough for many, for friends Reyan Fernando and Mark Kuch it also provided an opportunity, as Ash Bolt discovers.

eelong friends Reyan Fernando and Mark Kuch found an online community of people who shared their love for barbecue during the COVID-19 lockdowns. The pair ran the Rib Appreciation Society with some friends, where they reviewed barbecue ribs at restaurants around the region. But when lockdown closed restaurants, Reyan and Mark took up cooking their own barbecue and found an online community. “Lockdown hit and we had just coincidentally started barbecuing at home and stumbled across this amazing barbecue community online,” Reyan said. “I noticed a whole bunch of people going online and just chatting about barbecue and I was dying for another hobby because I was doing nothing at home. “I said to Mark, ‘let’s just get on and start talking about barbecue’.” The pair started their own online show on Instagram, the ‘BBQ and Brews Show’, to share their passion for low ‘n’ slow barbecue. “The first couple of episodes we did, we just had a chat [between ourselves] and we thought this isn’t going to work, and so we started inviting other people from the barbecuing community to come on with us,” Reyan said. “Initially it started with a couple of guys from Sydney who came on for a chat – and it was a great chat, everyone was having fun and sharing knowledge. “From there we’ve just kept going. We’ve had about 50 guests now.” Mark said the show became about getting other members of the barbecue community to share their unique experiences and expertise. “It was all about getting people to share their experiences and talking about how they got to where they got to,” he said. “We were home cooks with no experience whatsoever but

the community is so embracing and we were getting tips from people all over the country. “We wanted to share that, so we talked to people from all different backgrounds – we talked to people who do rubs, we talked to the farmers themselves, we talked to the cooking community and the people who do competitions. And they all had something interesting to share.” Mark said the show also allowed the pair to help highlight the great barbecuers from around the Geelong and Surf Coast, as well as across the country. “They’re so many great companies locally in barbecue, whether that’s making rubs or steakhouses, and to be able to help promote them was great,” he said. The show took off during lockdown and more and more high-profile guests in the barbecue

community got involved. “We were doing it live on Saturday nights and we had the perfect captured audience, because people couldn’t go out,” Reyan said. “People were looking for something to do and some social connection and that’s where this started from.” Mark added the pair had made many connections with people they’d never met and made new friends along the way. “All these people we met along the way and the people we had on the show, now that we’ve been out [of lockdown] we’ve been able to organise real-life catch-ups,” he said. “We’ve had two meetings in Melbourne where we’ve invited all these people and it’s crazy meeting all these people you’ve been talking to online for the last 12 months. The success of the show also saw them invited

to take part in Meatstock – Australia’s largest barbecue and music festival. “We’ve had some high profile guests, like Jay Beaumont, who is part of the group that started the Australasian Barbecue Alliance and that interview got us into Meatstock,” Reyan said. At Meatstock in Melbourne last month and Toowoomba earlier this month, Reyan and Mark hosted a live on-stage Q&A session with some of the biggest names in barbecue, called Meet the Pitmasters, which they’ll do again when Meatstock heads to Sydney next week. Reyan said talking to stars of the barbecue community such as Tuffy Stone, Christina Fitzgerald, Mike Johnson, Laura Rome and My Kitchen Rules winners Dan and Stef was a dream come true. “Tuffy Stone is a six time world champion and in the Hall of Fame in America,” he said. “American barbecue is on another level – we’re catching up but we’re not on that level. “So for us, just two guys from Geelong, to be rubbing shoulders with this barbecue royalty, in both Aussie barbecue and American barbecue, it’s next level. It was so cool.” As they adapted to the lockdown, the pair is now adapting to the end of lockdown after finding their Instagram show was no longer working for its audience. Reyan and Mark said they were now trying to grow the show into a multi-platform experience that will allow them to present their guests in new ways. But Mark said the important part was ensuring it provided a place for barbecue fans to come together and chat. “[The show] was a release for me and for others – it was a way for us to talk to other people and feel that connection when we were locked inside,” he said.

Shire budget has climate focus By Ash Bolt A commitment to respond to the global climate emergency is at the core of Surf Coast Shire Council’s draft budget. At its Tuesday meeting, the council adopted the draft budget, which mayor Libby Stapleton said delivered on the community’s vision to protect and enhance the natural environment. “One of our goals is to protect our environment and help our community to thrive through environmental leadership, so it’s pleasing the budget demonstrates how we continue to work towards this,” she said. “The budget supports the ongoing

certification as a carbon neutral organisation, which involves continually taking action to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, while residual emissions – which mostly come from our landfill – will be offset.” The next stage of the Anglesea Landfill Rehabilitation is a key project in the budget, with $3 million allocated. Cr Stapleton said the budget also delivered on the community vision to be an active, diverse community that lives creatively. “Our creative focus is … highlighted by an $88,000 investment to expand the arts and culture service. This joins a $50,000 allocation to the arts program over the next two years,

and a $36,000 continued investment in the Anglesea Art Space,” Cr Stapleton said. “We want to foster a connected community, so we’re excited by significant infrastructure projects such as the Winchelsea Pool renewal, Eastern Reserve netball courts resurfacing and MAC upgrade – all of which will result in invaluable health and wellbeing outcomes.” A $34.5 million capital works program lays the foundation for the budget, $13.5 million of which is spent on new projects to be delivered. Within the program, $11.6 million is allocated for renewing existing assets – topped by the $2.1 million Winchelsea Pool renewal – and $12.9 million for roads upgrades,

maintenance and renewal. The budget includes a proposed rate increase of 1.75 per cent, in line with the rate cap set by the state government. The urban garbage collection fee is budgeted to increase by five per cent to $455 and the rural garbage collection by eight per cent to $388. Cr Stapleton said the rural increase was higher to align the two garbage collection charges over the next four years. “We acknowledge this is significant, and can be attributed to the increase to waste collection and disposal costs, including Victorian government EPA levies,” she said.

Walk for breast cancer Registrations for this year’s Mother’s Day Classic are now open, with the annual charity fun-run returning to its in-person format after two years of virtual events. The eight and four-kilometre walk and run will take place in Eastern Park on Sunday, May 8, with funds raised to support breast cancer research. Geelong Mother’s Day Classic organiser Kristin McMaster said it was pleasing the event would be able to return to its usual format. “We’ve essentially been in hiatus for a few years now because of the pandemic and we’ve had to hold virtual events,” she said. “It’s the 25th year of the Mother’s Day Classic as whole this year – which is a major milestone – and thank goodness we can come together and run the event in-person. “We’re hoping to see somewhere from 1500 to 2000 people take part and go for a walk or a

run around Eastern Park, overlooking Eastern Beach and the beautiful waterfront.” Ms McMaster said participants would have a wide range of motivations for taking part in the day. “Breast cancer will have touched everyone in some way, whether that’s yourself or someone you know,” she said. “For some people the day is a celebration of survival and for others it will be an opportunity to remember someone important. It’s a really special cause and we’re encouraging everyone to dress in pink and come together in hope.” Ms McMaster said the day would also feature a collection of children’s activities in the park, including mini golf and a petting zoo, to bring a “fun atmosphere” to the day.

Domestic violence vigil

Buses set to replace trains

By Ash Bolt The Sexual Assault and Family Violence Centre, Bethany Community Support and the City of Greater Geelong will light up landmarks across Geelong in purple as part of Safe Steps’ candlelight vigil next week. The candlelight vigil honours and remembers the women and children who have lost their lives as a result of family violence. On average in Australia, one woman a week is killed at the hands of a current or former partner. On Wednesday, May 4, the City of Greater Geelong will be lighting up the catenary lights, Shorts Place and trees along the Geelong waterfront. As part of the vigil, Deakin University Waterfront Campus, Salvation Army Geelong, Victoria Police, Geelong Arts Centre and others will be joining Melbourne landmarks Flinders Street Station, Bolte Bridge, Victoria Police Headquarters, and Town Hall to mark the occasion. The SAFV Centre acting chief executive Mary Cowell said the vigil was an opportunity to reflect and remember, while shining a light on national crisis of family violence. “The impact on women and children who live with family violence is devastating and long lasting. While family violence is prevalent, it is preventable. We need to come together as a community to prevent family violence – we all have a role to play,” she said. “While we have a range of services available in our community to respond and support women and children impacted by family violence, it will take a shift in our attitudes towards women and working towards gender equality that will ultimately end violence against women and children.” Bethany Community Support chief executive Grant Boyd said the Geelong community had

an important role to play in standing up to family violence. “Family violence affects people from all walks of life and includes many forms of abuse and violence that is not always physical. Ultimately, we want to live in a community free from the impacts of family violence, but there is much work to do to achieve this,” he said. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said council fully supported any initiative to eradicate family and domestic violence. “Council is committed to addressing family and domestic violence, through primary

Coaches will replace trains in Geelong for much of May, with works planned for Waurn Ponds Station. Coaches will be used between Waurn Ponds and Geelong from April 30 to May 11 and again from May 22 to May 28, while coaches will replace trains from Waurn Ponds to Wyndham Vale on May 12-13 and May 16-21 and to Southern Cross on May 14 and 15. Coaches will also run from Geelong to Warrnambool over the same period. The changes will allow the final two 50-metre sections of rail at Waurn Ponds Station to be installed and live signalling boxes to be relocated from the rail corridor to complete track duplication at the station. Construction will also continue on a pedestrian and cyclist path on the south side of the station, with features including CCTV and lighting, along with final fit outs on the second platform, ramps and stairs. Site investigations for the South Geelong to Waurn Ponds Duplication will take place along the rail line between South Geelong and Waurn Ponds to support early works and design of the project. Work will also continue on the Waurn Ponds train stabling and maintenance facility with construction of the service buildings underway. The absence of trains will also allow V/Line to complete more than $5 million worth of maintenance works on the line.

The Guide THE COOK UP WITH ADAM LIAW SBS Food, Friday, 7pm

PICK OF THE WEEK CALL THE MIDWIFE ABC TV, Saturday, 8.20pm

More than just a beautiful period drama, Call the Midwife has steadfastly delved into the struggles and challenges for women in the 1950s and ’60s as change roared around them. It’s a sweet and delicate confection that doesn’t shy away from taking a hard bite out of the social issues of its time. As season 10 kicks off tonight, viewers can rest assured that the show has been greenlighted for three more seasons, which will likely take the nuns of Nonnatus House into the ’70s. Tonight, it’s spring 1966. Amid a distressing birth, Sister Julienne (Jenny Agutter, pictured) and Doctor Turner (Stephen McGann) disagree over whether to provide a private care service.

Every weeknight, Adam Liaw (pictured) invites hungry viewers into his kitchen as he whips up delicious, easy and comforting dishes with an array of chefs, comedians, actors and wellknown faces. It’s an always fascinating half-hour program that’s effortlessly nourishing. This second season delivers 200 episodes, which are each a delightful way to unwind after any weekday. Tonight, it’s all about the lazy Sunday feed. Winners and Losers star Virginia Gay and satirist Mark Humphries reveal their most straightforward dishes. COMPASS ABC TV Plus, Sunday, 7.30pm

If you haven’t heard of Yasmin Poole (pictured), prepare to be blown away. The award-winning writer, youth advocate and speaker has packed a lot into her 22 years, and one of her missions is to motivate young people to become more involved and invested in our country’s politics. With the federal election imminent, Poole takes over the reins of this week’s timely episode. Titled “Raising Her Voice”, Poole takes a look at the rise of female independents, as well as a return to ethics and community values in politics. DAVID ATTENBOROUGH’S THE MATING GAME Nine, Monday, 8.50pm

Anyone who appreciates a nature documentary knows you can’t go past Sir David Attenborough’s (pictured) treasure trove of offerings. With a career spanning more than seven decades of hosting, producing and writing natural history programs, the 95-year-old British national treasure is a feat of nature himself. In this latest series, it’s all about how our animal counterparts romance each other – or not – and keep their species going for another generation.

Show pays tribute to Springfield By Ash Bolt Geelong and the Bellarine will play host to one of the first performances of a stage adaption chronicling the life of performer Rick Springfield. As part of the City of Greater Geelong’s month-long Surround Sounds initiative, the Potato Shed will host Late, Late At Night on Saturday, May 7. Written by award-winning Melbourne playwright Kieran Carroll, Late, Late At Night is an adaption of Rick Springfield’s New York Times best-selling memoir. The memoir and the adaption traces

Springfield’s Australian and British childhood in the 1950s, his early music days in Australia, his rollercoaster ride in 1970s America and the huge pop and acting successes of the 1980s. It also covers his fall from public view, his mental health demise, and finally, the resurrection of Rick Springfield as an artist in the 21st century. Carroll said the musical play was a story “about overcoming adversity”. “Rick Springfield had 17 top 40 hits in the US and sold 25 million records, but that success didn’t translate to Australia,” he said. “Two of his songs were big in Australia –

Speak to the Sky in 1972 before he moved to the US, and Jessie’s Girl. “A lot of people wouldn’t know about Rick Springfield’s story and the idea of the play is to share his tumultuous journey.” Carroll, from Edithvale in Melbourne’s south-east, grew up not far from Rick Springfield’s childhood home in Parkdale and said it had an important role in the show. “Rick Springfield didn’t come back to Australia often, but when he did he always came back to that house, so the story connects to that,” he said. He added the story aimed to capture the heart

Help offered to songwriters

Second Geelong show added

Amy Shark. (Jess Gleeson)

ARIA award winner and alt-pop singer-songwriter Amy Shark has announced a second show in Geelong as part of her national tour. Last month Shark announced a 42-date See U Somewhere regional tour, which included a stop in Geelong at Costa Hall on Saturday, July 23. On Thursday she announced that due to “overwhelming demand”, she was adding 14 more shows to the tour, including a second in Geelong.

She will now play at Costa Hall to back-to-back nights, with the second show slotted in for Sunday, July 24. “You guys have blown me away by your response to my shows,” Shark said. “We now play 60 shows over four months and I can’t wait to see you there.” After bursting on to the global music scene in 2016, Shark’s APRA award winning song and number one Australian airplay chart hit, I Said Hi, made her one of the most well-known

and essence of Springfield’s major concerns and musings: depression, God, his parents, self-motivation, his wife and sons, the way America shaped him and what he left behind in Australia as he built his career to lead the seemingly glamorous and not-so-glamorous expatriate life. The two-act, one man show is performed by Sydney actor Jackson Carroll and includes 20 Rick Springfield songs throughout. Carroll said the Geelong performance would be one of the show’s first, after its recent debut in Melbourne in Melbourne was well-received. Details: geelongaustralia.com.au/potatoshed

Australian artists. Shark’s debut album Love Monster was recognised in 2018 with four ARIA awards, including album of the year and female artist of the year, and went on to become the highest selling album by an Australian artist for 2018. Her latest album, Cry Forever, was released in 2021 and nominated for three ARIA awards, including album of the year.

Aspiring songwriters across the region will have the chance to learn from some of the best as part of a state governmentsupported program. The Regional Sessions, run by APRA AMCOS and supported by Creative Victoria, will connect regional creatives with some of Victoria’s best songwriters at five hubs across the state, including Geelong. The full-day program, at Platform Arts on June 13, will feature a keynote ‘In Conversation’, a songwriter panel and small group workshops. The program will culminate with a curated performance and post-event networking at a nearby venue. Beginner, emerging and mid-career songwriters and musicians are encouraged to come along. One of the Geelong’s most well-known musicians, Adalita, will be the keynote speaker and lead the workshops. “I’m really looking forward to the Regional Sessions in my hometown of Geelong. It’s going to be a great opportunity for songwriters to connect and experience new ideas and share in the creative process,” Adalita said. In afternoon workshop sessions, participants will have the opportunity to share their work, collaborate in groups and get feedback from artists at the top of their game including producer and electronic artist Elle Graham (Woodes), singer and guitarist Cash Savage, composer Craig Pilkington and Indigenous musician and community leader Fred Leone.

Mum’s gift is sorted with Coastal Hamper Designs

Hahndorf’s Fine Chocolates Geelong is the perfect place to take mum for a treat this Mother’s Day. (Pictures: Supplied)

Indulge in sweet treats As one of nine franchises across Victoria, Hahndorf’s Fine Chocolates Geelong is a combined cafe and chocolate shop. With every hot or cold drink purchased, customers will receive a complimentary chocolate, which is a perfect accompaniment to the sweet and savory foods available at Hahndorf’s. Inspired and educated by German chocolatiers Manfred and Erica Kolerg, Hahndorf’s opened its first store in late 2001. The North Balwyn store was the first in Melbourne to offer a café style chocolate shop producing chocolate so that customers could relax, enjoy a drink and cake while sampling the chocolates. Only seven kilometres from Melbourne’s city centre, it was the perfect location for the initial store. Over time, Hahndorf’s has stuck to its initial concept, increasing production and its range

of products and services to suit our customers’ tastes. As a result of the success of the initial store, further shops opened across Melbourne and Geelong, offering the same handmade truffles, chocolates, gift boxes and hampers to eager customers. Due to the increase in demand from customers, Hahndorf’s opened a second factory in 2004, at the base of the Dandenong Ranges just outside Melbourne, to produce over 90 products that make up the Hahndorf’s range. Today, customers are welcome to visit any of the stores to see and enjoy the ever changing creations on offer. Hahndorf’s Fine Chocolates Geelong is located at 354 Pakington Street, Newtown.

Putting service front and centre at BJT A leading independent workshop in Geelong, BJT Automotive has established a solid reputation as a reliable and thorough workshop with exceptional customer service. Owner Brett Turley says the high standards they pride themselves on mean they are an excellent alternative to dealership servicing. “We are renowned for our fussiness and attention to detail, and that’s exactly how we like it,” he says. “To ensure our mechanical services are cutting edge and up to date we are constantly refreshing and improving our mechanics’ skills and knowledge.” Personalised service is front and centre at BJT Automotive as well. Brett and his team offer a loan car and courtesy car service and like to get an understanding of each customer and car. “Our mechanics take note and listen. They’re thorough and keep extensive records of each service.

He also has some advice for anyone who’s about to buy or sell a car. “We encourage them to talk to us first. We are VicRoads roadworthy testers, able to issue roadworthy certificates, and offer comprehensive pre-purchase car inspections.” As well as tyre fitting, the workshop carries out a range of mechanical services, with Holden, Toyota, Ford, Mazda, Subaru, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Honda, Hyundai, Kia and Suzuki covered.

Dangerfield likely to play: coach By Ash Bolt Geelong coach Chris Scott expects star midfielder Patrick Dangerfield will be fit and ready to go for the Cats’ important clash against Fremantle tomorrow. Dangerfield didn’t play in the Cats’ 60-point win over North Melbourne in Hobart last Sunday after suffering a corked calf in the Easter Monday loss to Hawthorn six days earlier. Speaking after the win, Scott said he was expecting Dangerfield to return. “We think that’s likely [he’ll play],” he said. “He’s just been a bit unlucky the first month of footy, he got a really bad cork in his quad that he was labouring with. “He was okay to play [against Hawthorn]. He battled through that a little bit, and then just got a series of corks to the same spot in his calf. “It was OK coming off a 10-day break last week … but off a six-day break, it just wasn’t right for him to play [last weekend]. “I don’t know for sure, but the indication is he is likely to play.” Geelong head of medical and conditioning

services Harry Taylor said a final decision would be made closer to game time. “Patrick will continue his reconditioning program as planned and we will assess later in the week,” he said on Tuesday. One player that benefited from Dangerfield’s

absence and will be hoping to retain his spot in the side is Ollie Dempsey. The 19-year-old rookie listed forward made his AFL debut against North Melbourne on Sunday, after impressing in the VFL to start the season.

He collected 16 disposals and kicked a goal in the Cats’ win, which came just 12 months after he swapped basketball for football. He impressed playing school football for Carey Grammar, leading the Cats to select him with pick 15 in the 2021 rookie draft. “It’s pretty crazy, this time last year I was playing my first practice game in four years,” Dempsey said. “So it’s crazy to think about where I am today but it’s just a credit to all the coaches and the hard work. “I was never planning for it go this way, but I’m glad that it turned out like it has. “I was pretty nervous … pre-game but I got out there and into it, it was all fine. “As I got into the match [and] laid that first tackle, it’s just footy – another game of footy. “It was a good win with the boys so I’ll cherish it forever.” The Cats will be back at home on Saturday hosting Fremantle, who come into the game sitting second on the ladder after an impressive start to the season. The Cats sit sixth on the ladder with four wins and two losses.

Portarlington picks Demons great Former Melbourne captain and 300-game star Nathan Jones is set to pull on the red and blue one more time – but this time for Portarlington. The Demons were one of eight regional football clubs chosen to take part in the Carlton Draft, an initiative run by Carlton Draught to support grassroots clubs doing it tough over the past few years. Eight former AFL stars, including Eddie Betts, Dale Thomas and Jarryd Roughead, nominated for the draft on Wednesday night, with Portarlington selecting Jones with the first pick. The pick means Jones will pull on the Demons’ red and blue for their game against Ocean Grove on July 9. Jones said he was excited to take part in the initiative and get down to the club. “It should be a bit of fun,” he said. “It’s ironic that I’ve been picked by Portarlington because I’ve only ever worn the red and blue throughout my career – first with

Mt Eliza in the juniors and then Melbourne – so I’m looking forward to doing it again. “I don’t know a lot about Portarlington or the club but I’ve heard great things and I can’t wait to get out there. “I was hands down not going to play footy at all this year, but when this opportunity came up, it was pretty easy to say yes. “It’s a really worthwhile cause to get out there and help some of our local clubs that have been having a tough time. “Hopefully I’ll be in some reasonable form, Portarlington will get a win and then we can have a few beers and a couple laughs together after the game.” Portarlington Football Netball Club president Steve Cogger said it was an exciting time for the club. More than 100 players, volunteers and supporters spent Wednesday night at the Portarlington Golf Club to watch the draft and Cogger said the club was rapt to get Jones. “We would have loved to have any of the

players, but to get the one we really wanted is fantastic,” he said. “The players are beside themselves – we have a young group and they are looking forward to playing alongside him and learning from him.” Cogger said the club was thankful for the opportunity to be involved in the initiative. “This is a great opportunity for us to promote our club and our community and we want to take it with both hands,” he said. “We’re proud of our club – we’re a well-run club off the ground, we just need to turn around the on-field side. “This is a real chance for us to bring our club to the fore and we can’t wait. “We just had a huge Anzac Day game against Drysdale with a remembrance ceremony on the ground before the game, which was amazing. The crowd we had was the biggest I’ve seen it and hopefully that will continue.”

Batesford boxer Kristy Harris will be pulling on the green and gold at the Commonwealth Games for the second time later this year. The 29-year-old was this week announced as one of 11 members selected for the Australian boxing team at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. It will be the second time Harris has represented Australia at the Games, after previously competing at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Harris created history at Glasgow by winning a bout on the first-ever women’s boxing card in the competition and will return after missing selection for the Gold Coast Games in 2018. “To be part of history was amazing. To hear the crowd when we came out, after all the work I put into this, and to know that it was finally happening, was great,” Harris said. She is hoping to go further than Glasgow, where she defeated in the quarter finals. Harris is already training in the UK, with IBA Women’s World Championships scheduled for next month, ahead of the Games in July. Boxing Australia general manager Dinah Glykidis said she was expecting good things from Australia’s boxing team at the Games. “We have nominated an exciting group of talented boxers who are ready to test themselves against the best fighters across the Commonwealth,” she said. “Boxing Australia athletes provided many thrills at the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, and I’m sure our 11 boxers are ready to represent the green and gold in Birmingham. “On behalf of Boxing Australia, we commend the hard work each of the 11 fighters have put in to get to this moment, we are so proud of each of them. We know they will continue practicing and improving over the next few months and we can’t wait to see them compete at the Games.” Ash Bolt

SPORT Strong play at state championships LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers With another week until the winter season starts for senior and junior competitions, the focus last weekend was on the pilot of the Tennis Victoria State League Championships, held on the en tout cas clay courts at Royal South Yarra Tennis Club. Eight teams from seven associations across the state participated in a round robin event, which was designed to provide premiers from club teams across the state the opportunity to play off against other club teams to be crowned state champions of their grade. The pilot was to see what the players thought of the grading system, how grading from the various associations compared, the format, event timing and the overall concept. The eight teams were graded based on their UT rating and split into two divisions of four teams, playing four doubles sets per match – two pairs playing the oppositions pairs. Tennis Geelong was represented by Section 1 men’s premiers Grovedale, who were grouped with Overport Park from Bayside Regional Tennis Association, Notting Hill/Pinewood

from Waverleigh Tennis Association and Eaglemont from Eastern Region Tennis in Division 1, while Western Region Tennis Association, Mt Prospect Tennis Association, Hawthorn from Bayside Regional Tennis Association and Glenburn Tennis Club formed Division 2. On paper the teams looked reasonably even with average UT ratings between 8.6 and 9.0, and the results produced, on the whole,

matched the ratings. Grovedale’s first match was against Eaglemont where Curtis Fitzgerald and Rob Lazic took the second set 8-6, but went down 8-4 in the fourth. Ryan Lee and Jai Boznjak fought hard in their sets but went down 8-3, 8-4. The second match was against the highest rated Notting Hill/Pinewood, and while competitive, the boys went down four sets to love. The final match of the day was the closest for Grovedale with Jai Bosnjak and Curtis Fitzgerald missing out on a close 9-7 loss in the first doubles, but continued on their strong form taking the third 8-3. Rob Lazic and Braeden Lubcke battled hard in their two sets but went down 8-5, 8-3. After a long day the team headed back down the highway having played some great quality tennis, against quality opposition on a surface that they rarely play on. Tennis Victoria will use the feedback from the players to refine the concept, and Tennis Geelong looks forward to the next opportunity to provide local teams the chance to play on a bigger stage.

A top flight opportunity By Ash Bolt Geelong athlete Mackenzie Mielczarek will have the chance to show her skills on the world stage when she represents Australia at the World Athletics Under-20 Championships later this year. The 19-year-old javelin thrower was one of 60 young athletes selected last week to represent the green and gold at the championships in the Colombian city of Cali from August 1 to 6. Mielczarek made the team after winning the under-20 national championship with a throw of 51.68 metres – more than two and a half metres further than the silver medallist – at the national championships in March. The talented young athlete also placed fifth in the country in the senior championships. “It’s amazing to know I’ll be able to compete at the world championships. I’ve put in a lot of hard work to get to here and it’s great to see it paying off,” she said. “I’ve known that I would make the team since the national championships, but it’s all official now which is a relief. “It will be my first international competition – I was picked to for the world championships last year but it was held in Nairobi (Kenya) and Australia didn’t up going for safety reason, which was a little disappointing. “But I’m really excited to get another chance this year and go to Colombia – I’m not really sure what to expect but I’m looking forward to it.” The selection is the latest milestone in Mielczarek’s career, which started at the Corio Little Athletics club in 2012. “Ten years ago I started little athletics and as part of that, you had to try every sport,” she said. “I found that I just loved javelin – getting to throw a spear is pretty cool when you’re a kid. “So I kept going with it … I’ve competed in pretty much every capital city and … I really enjoy it.” Mielczarek trains three to four times per week with her coach Stephen Cain in Box Hill, while studying at Deakin University and managing a casual job. She said she would spend the next three months until the world championships working on her technique, which has undergone a lot of change this year. “There’s the Oceanian Championships coming up in the next month or two, but that will be my only formal competition … I’ll 26 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 29 April, 2022

Mackenzie Mielczarek competing at the national championships.

mostly be sticking to my training to prepare,” she said. “We’ve been working on a lot of technical changes this year – I had a few issues before – particularly during my release. “We have a saying in javelin that you want to keep the arm long and that’s what I’m working on.” Currently ranked in the top handful of under 20 javelin throwers in the world, Mielczarek said she was ultimately aiming to make the podium in Cali. “I haven’t set myself a goal in terms of the distance I want to throw, but I’m aiming to make the top eight first and then finishing on the podium would be nice,” she said.

The waterfront a salmon feeding ground ON THE BITE Peri Stavropoulos Inside Corio Bay has been a feeding ground for Australian salmon over the past week, with baitfish being pushed to the surface causing bust ups nearly every day. In and around the Geelong Waterfront is where majority of the action has been with anglers from both boat and land getting amongst it. Casting small soft plastics to resemble baitfish have been deadly and when the fish are on can result in a fish a cast. This time of year we should see the winter snapper in this similar area start to turn on with fish to 10kg being very achievable. Clifton Springs is still producing some fantastic whiting fishing at the moment, big fish and big numbers. Fishing just about any time of the day and any tide has been producing plenty of fish with reports of fish reaching over 40cm. There are still lots of small fish amongst it all but with persistence and working through the smaller fish, it’s well worth it. Squid and pipis have been yet again the standout baits with a light burley trail being a handy enticer to have in the water. Calamari are still holding in great numbers in shallow, unfortunately the water has been a little dirty so finding them can be a grind but once a pod is found you can seriously clean up. Jigs with a rattle built inside have been working better than the standards as the squid have something they can feel better in the water, as well as jig scent. When the water is dirty and chasing squid these two tips can be a game changer. Offshore Barwon Heads is still fishing very well for pinky snapper and gummy sharks with the 50 and 60 metre line producing the goods. Snapper snatcher rigs with fresh squid and salmon have been working a treat. Portland to Port MacDonnell is still on fire with the barrel tuna bite that is going on down there at the moment, with reports coming in daily of fish to well over 100kg. Trolling skirted lures has been working very well with Aloha Super Ninjas being a standout at the moment. School tuna have also been holding out a bit deeper on the shelf, yet again skirted lures and divers have been doing the damage with fish up to 25kg hitting the deck.

Beyond that she has dreams of competing at the Olympics. “My goal is Olympics and to make a world championships as part of a senior squad,” she said.” She won’t be the only Geelong athlete competing at Cali, with Cassidy Bradshaw and Tiana Boras also picked in the squad. Pole vaulter Bradshaw, who competes for Deakin Athletic Club, qualified after winning with under-20 national championships with a four metre jump. Boras, who competes for Athletics Chilwell, is Australia’s only female triple jump representative on the squad.
