65 years a Noosa life saver It was a fitting end to an extraordinary 65 years of surf life saving for Ron Lane when his colleagues formed a guard of honour the length of the beach to pay tribute to an absolute Noosa legend. From his last shift posted at the radio tower to the club house, the club’s life member faced his final life saving duty with enthusiasm, good humour, commitment and dedication as he had every challenge in his many roles with the Noosa Heads Life Saving Club.

When the final vote of a drawn-out Noosa Council meeting was taken last week, it put the seal on a much longer project to bring a new surf lifesaving club to the Peregian community. Eight years after the club ran out of cash and was wound up with the lease on its building passing to Noosa Council, a new entity had emerged to keep Peregian Beach safe. The Council’s decision to authorise its chief executive officer to enter into negotiations for a 10-year lease to Peregian Beach SLSC was the

outcome of a long and fraught community effort led by Peregian resident Leigh McCready, who always believed the surf club could be reestablished. But such a revival was something never previously achieved in Queensland. Once gone, surf clubs stayed gone. “It’s been a journey,” McCready said. “It consumed me for over four years after I organised a petition to gather support to re-start the club. That advocacy showed just how great the community support was - more than 1500 people wanted to get their surf club back.”

McCready - also a lifesaver and previously a director of Noosa Heads SLSC and Peregian Nippers coordinator - was under no illusion about the scope of the task ahead. Her first step was to talk with former Peregian club committee members, the board of Noosa Heads surf club, lifesavers and Peregian business people, after which she could plan the way forward. “It was clear to me that Peregian families must have a voice in this project. So I decided to start a local residents’ association, Peregian Family & Friends, to provide a focal point for the project. After all, a new club would be pa-

trolled by our own community, local children would learn surf skills and it would eventually develop into a social hub for the community. “As we began the long journey to re-establish the club, I’m very proud that our first tangible act was to get Nippers back on the beach after a three year absence.” McCready allowed herself a deep breath as she reflected on what, at the time, seemed an impossibly complex task. It was the backing of the community that made the difference, she said. Continued page 8

For the past few years I’ve had the honour to work with Ron Lane. An absolute gentleman with a touch of larrikin about him, it’s always a pleasure. As a columnist for Noosa Today Ron writes about the achievements of Noosa’s sporting and life saving heroes and other outstanding residents. A natural story teller who moved to Noosa as a 19 year old in 1957 and signed up to be a life saver Ron has experienced Noosa through enormous change from a small coastal town to a popular tourist spot. Almost everyone in Noosa makes their way to the surf club at some time and Ron has many tales to tell about the characters and happenings in the region over six and a half decades. On Monday it was time to pay tribute to Ron Lane. Having notched up an incredible 65 years as a life saver he decided it was time to clock off for good from his regular shift in the radio tower. True to form it was with humility and gratitude that he met a crowd of clubbies and community members who had gathered on the beach to thank him for his years of service, his friendship, encouragement and assistance. Never seeking accolades Ron said his father had told him your only goal should be self-satisfaction - knowing you’d done a job well. Job well done, Ron you’re an inspiration.

Early betting markets are strongly favouring a Labor win in the 21 May election, according to odds published on Monday by online bookmaker Sportsbet. But the markets are betting on LNP incumbent Llew O’Brien to retain the Wide Bay federal electorate. Though not a perfect predictor of election results anymore, betting markets still hold their own for accuracy against the professional random sample opinion polls, which also no longer have much of a track record. With odds generally based on support from punters, the favourite is for a Labor win overall, paying $1.70 for a $1 bet. The Coalition is considered less likely to win, but at $2.10, is not a longshot. A win by anyone else is hardly considered

possible, with the bookies paying $67 in the event of any other outcome. The Sportsbet market for Wide Bay has Llew O’Brien as favourite with a payout of $1.01 for the win. Second favourite at the start of the week was Labor’s Geoff Williams (paying $14), followed by Independents Kelli Jacobi and Tim Jerome (both offering odds of $34). After that, the odds get higher as the market judges victory to be less likely. One Nation’s Nathan Buckley is fetching $51, Craig Armstrong for the Greens $91, Tracy Bennett for United Australia Party $101. Andrea Newland for Independent Medical Options Party, Daniel Williams for the Australian Values Party and John Woodward for the Australian Federation Party are paying $151 for a win.

Noosa Coast Guard joins other service clubs in the parade.

Homage to service By Margie Maccoll Grey skies and gusty conditions did not deter the thousands who turned out on Anzac Day to honour the Anzac legend born on the shores of Gallipoli in 1915 and all service men and women. At Tewantin, school children, emergency services workers and community representatives joined veterans in a parade that snaked along Poinciana Avenue to the 9am service in the town square. MC Bob Upham told the crowd it was a day to pay homage to veterans of many wars, those who had been injured, those who had lost their lives and to their families and friends. “The truth is all veterans pay with their lives. Some pay all at once, others pay over a lifetime,“ he said. Mayor Clare Stewart said the day was an acknowledgement those in service who protected us and our way of life. She said the war in Ukraine recognises the extent to which freedom and courage is prized and the images show us the devastation of war which servicemen have experienced. Guest speaker, former navy logistics officer Madelaine Damiris, defined service as being much broader than the infantrymen on the battlefield or fighter pilots in the skies. She acknowledged land forces, war nurses, First Nations soldiers and all the members of a defence force team who work together toward a common goal. The service ended with the release of white doves to signify world peace.

Ron’s service in the surf On the eve of his last patrol at Noosa Main Beach after 65 years of surf life saving service, Noosa Today columnist Ron Lane was in a reflective mood as he opened up his day book to two pages of heavily highlighted memories. “Jeez, where do I start?” asked the life governor, life member and former club captain and president of Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club, now nearing 84. Well, how about at the beginning? Born in Gympie in 1938, Ron, an only child, spent his earliest years being brought up by his mum and grandparents, with his dad off at the war. But when his father returned, the little family delighted in taking the Lewis Brothers bus tour to Noosa Heads, spending the day romping on the beach and enjoying the group picnic and barbecue before heading home sunburnt and exhausted. Ron recalls: “The thing I remember most is trying to find somewhere to hide from the sun. One day when I came back from sheltering under a shed on the dunes, Mum said she didn’t think that was such a good idea. Apparently I was lying under the floorboards of the ladies dressing room.” An asthmatic, young Ron was warned off swimming for fear of drowning during an attack – the opposite of today’s advice – so he decided to become the next Don Bradman. He joined the Brothers’ squad and knocked up some handy runs, but it only took one season for him to realise that he wasn’t going to average 99. By this time he’d left Christian Brothers to take up a management traineeship at Penney’s retail stores where workmates urged him to come down to Noosa and join the surf club. “I could hardly swim, but I thought I’d give it a go. It was hard work but I loved it from the start.” He joined the Noosa club in 1957 and got his Bronze Medallion the following year. “That was when the hard work started.” After realising that he didn’t want to spend his life in a department store, he ditched Pen-

ney’s and got a job on the railways, working at Brisbane’s Northgate workshops. “I was working with another couple of blokes who also eventually became Noosa life members. Every Friday night in summer we’d go out to Chermside and put the thumb out. We always wore our surf club shirts so they’d know we were lifesavers. Get a ride straight up. People driving further up the highway would often go out of their way and drive us down from Cooroy. Why? Because lifesavers were gods back then.” Lifesavers were also totally committed to the invaluable work they did. Ron Lane says he’s been asked many times what inspired him to devote his life to surf life saving. Oddly enough, it was a tragedy that occurred not in the surf but in the Noosa River. “It was my early days at the club, Christmas

time and a Monday morning when we didn’t do patrol. Some of the boys were considering going up to the Royal Mail for a counter lunch a bit later – this was before the Reef existed. “Then the phone rang and it was the coppers. A kid was missing in the river. When we got up to Gympie Terrace there were cops there and about 30 people, including the mother of the missing 11-year-old. “Nelson Angstrom was the only qualified lifeguard, the rest of us were still doing probation training. “So at the water’s edge he told us where to go and we swam out and dived to the bottom. Suddenly the bloke next to me was on top of the kid. We pulled him up and got him on the beach and started doing the old Holger Nielsen face-down resuscitation method. It was my first time and a woman knelt down beside me

and started chanting the Lord’s Prayer. “I really wanted to tell her to shut up. We couldn’t revive him and at the hospital at Cooroy we were standing by the bed when they told us officially that he was gone. “The first thing you think is, did I stuff up? The doctor said the boy was dead before we found him at the bottom of the river. I thought he was a callous bastard then but now I understand. That was when I became committed to trying to save lives.” By 1961 Ron was Noosa’s club captain and as such had to investigate and write the official report on Noosa’s first and only fatal shark attack. While he wasn’t present during the grisly December whaler attack on surfboard rider and university student John Graydon Andrews, he spent many days interviewing those who were and going over the gruesome and complex details, including the little-known fact that the club had been supplied with faulty rubber tourniquets, forcing the attending life savers to rip out their Speedo cords and make their own. Ron has had several of his own brushes with death over a long and distinguished lifesaving career, but the one he recalls most vividly occurred on a day of huge swell and treacherous rips at Main Beach. “We were body surfing and it turned really bad and I was told to get our squad out of there. As we were swimming in we heard someone yell out, ‘There he is!’ And there was a big bloke behind us getting washed out in a massive rip. “We caught up and got a hold on him and he was much bigger than we first thought and could hardly swim. “By now we were out on the shark nets so we decided to swim him towards Little Cove. We got swept in, but then another swell came through and swept us out again. “But I managed to drag him onto the rocks where a few of the local boardriders held us as another set rolled over us. Then we got him in. It was 3pm when we went for a body wave and after 6pm when we got back to the club. It was a long afternoon and a near thing for all of us.”

Although Ron had plenty of mates in the boardriding fraternity as surfing took off in the early ‘60s, he remained a lifelong body womper. “I remember telling one of the older guys I was thinking about buying a board and he said, ‘Nah, there’s nothing great about riding down a wave on a hunk of wood. You gotta get out there man against the sea!’ “This bloke also told me that if you could body surf Sunshine on a big day, you could do it anywhere. This one day it was huge and dumping and I remembered a magazine article about the Hawaiian roll, where you can roll with a dumper and tuck your head in so your feet hit the sand first. But I was too slow and I rolled and landed on my head. When I got up to the surface I couldn’t move. It was a neck fracture, and if I hadn’t had mates on the beach I was gone that day.” There’s a famous story, perhaps apocryphal, about Ron Lane that’s been doing the rounds of the local surfing community for years. According to the late Stuart Scott’s account, one August afternoon in 1963, big blond Laney walks into the bar of the Reef Hotel, plonks a glossy magazine on the table, open at a spread of photos of perfect waves on Noosa’s points, accompanied by the headline The Mysterious North, and declares: “Now we’re stuffed!” “That’s exactly what happened,” Ron tells me on Anzac Day Eve. “The cat was out of the bag, secret Noosa was no more.” Ron well knew that publicity like this would ruin it for all surfers, body or board. And he was right. By the end of the 1960s, Noosa was on the world surfing map. “It was never the same,” he said, “but you got used to the crowds.” There are many highlights in Ron Lane’s storied career. One that makes him particularly proud is his selection on the Australian delegation to the 1978 World Lifesaving Congress at Huntington Beach, California, and the profound changes to Noosa’s lifesaving capability that came out of it. “I was requested by officials of both Sunshine Coast Branch and Queensland State Centre, to have a close look at the American tower system being used on the famous Huntington Beach, which attracted huge holiday crowds along its 13.7 kilometres. “A couple of days after arriving I found myself in a patrol vehicle with American lifeguards, being driven along a vast stretch of beach where thousands of beach goers were all under the observation of a state-of-the-art tower system that would be perfect for Noosa. The Huntington officials made themselves available for further discussions and also presented me with a set of plans for the construction of the towers. “I was totally convinced that this system was the way to go: study the plans, and make alterations to cover our needs. But when I arrived home I hit a brick wall. On presenting my four-page report, I stood stunned as a highranking executive, without reading a word, threw it into a rubbish bin, saying, ‘Listen mate, we teach the Yanks, they don’t teach us.’” So it took a long time to happen, but like a dog with a bone, Ron wouldn’t leave it alone, chanting his mantra of “elevation, communication, three tower system” to anyone who would listen. Now, Noosa’s three tower system, operated by the surf club, council lifeguards and the Noosa Coastguard, helps keep our beaches safe. It is the pride of the Australian coastline, and, as he approaches his 84th birthday and leaves active duty, it is the pride of Ron Lane.

Lessons learnt in battle By Jim Fagan The unfolding disaster in the Ukraine and the recent US and Coalition retreat from Afghanistan were both a long way away and seemingly remote from Australia’s comfortable way of life, Air Marshall Geoff Shepherd said at the Anzac Day Dawn Service at Verrierdale on Monday. “We must guard against complacency, however, and not become so insular and convinced of the inevitable triumph of totalitarianism that we lose our capacity to understand the real and increasingly challenging nature of the world around us.” The former chief of the Royal Australian Air Force who was guest speaker said: “We are The Lucky Country but we must not forget how much hard work and sacrifice went into making us safe. “It will take much more of the same to keep us so. Just yesterday our Defence Minister Peter Dutton said our strategic position is as dire

as in the 1930s.” Air Marshall Shepherd said it was vital liberal democracies prepared for greater security and defence expenditure. He added: “They should also ensure the loyalty of their citizens rests with the west. The enemy within of internal divisiveness and overly critical national self-flagellation is as much a threat to Australia as external aggression. “A society where the current Australian of the Year publicly rebukes the Prime Minister for saying he was blessed by having healthy children while the Solomon Islands signs a security pact with an ever more assertive and expansionist China has its priorities wrong. “Serious debate over vital and pressing policy issues and governance should not be diverted into cultural arguments and trivial insults with the power of the negative becoming dominant.” He described Anzac Day as a “solemn duty to remember and pay honour to the 102,980

Australians who died in defence of our nation. “From the beaches of Gallipoli to the muddy hell holes of the French Western Front, to the deserts of the Middle East and North Africa, to the jungles of PNG and our Asian neighbours, the freezing conditions of Korea, to the vast open spaces of the Pacific and in all the seas and skies above, young Aussies have heeded the call to defend freedom.” He said it was common in many Anzac Day speeches to invoke the spirit, the courage, the sense of humour in adversity, the mateship, the honour of the original Anzacs and all the soldiers, sailors and aviators who have served since. “But there is one attribute they and earlier generations had in abundance—something we are desperately in need of in our future— the attribute of resilience. “It is the ability to bounce back, to maintain the aim in adversity, to stay true to your ideals and values, in spite of the odds.

“We need more of it as a nation and we need more of personally as we navigate an increasingly self-obsessed domestic and societal environment and a challenging world order. “We should draw on the experience of the original Anzacs in conditions so adverse we cannot really imagine as well as those who gave their service and their lives in the years since Gallipoli. “I have no doubt that it is deep within us individually and can be rebuilt in our national institutions but it does need to come to the fore and we do need to cut through to what is fundamentally important to our future. “This Anzac Day should be an opportunity for national and personal reflections on just what those, who gave so much, might think of us as their heirs to the freedoms they secured.” Air Marshall Shepherd said. Air Marshall Shepherd lives in Eumundi and also spoke at the Eumundi Anzac Day Observance.

Lifesaving move for club From page 1 “We quickly gained a huge amount of support. A passionate group of young parents joined the committee and hundreds of new members signed up to support our goals. “When that happened, I knew we would succeed. But we still had to define the kind of organisation we wanted to create – and we had to generate funds.” Initially money was raised to research community attitudes. It showed nearly 90 per cent of respondents wanted a traditional surf club at Peregian and 70 per cent believed a Nippers’ program was essential. It was at this time McCready found that Peregian had a very good friend - the Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club. “It paid our bills and ensured patrols would continue at Peregian. With Noosa surf club’s support, we were able to mobilise the project.” McCready said she’s most proud of the successful Nippers rehabilitation, and so she should be. It provided a fine community service and was a tangible achievement that brought the community together. “To see all the kids running on the beach and learning new skills was so rewarding,” McCready says. “The Nippers program has grown every year and is always highly rated by participants.” The strong backing of volunteers and the clear success of Peregian Nippers demonstrated to Surf Life Saving Queensland that Peregian was ready to be registered as a surf club again. Ross Fisher, Noosa Heads surf club’s well respected and long-standing president, acknowledged this achievement when he told members that McCready’s “drive, enthusiasm and passion was undoubtedly the difference that ensured the boost required was forthcoming”.

Leigh McCready with Peregian Nippers Jake, Luke and Ben. “Her efforts were amazing,” he said. “The Peregian community should be forever grateful as the result will be the re-establishment of the Peregian Beach SLSC in the community for the community and all beachgoers.” I asked McCready what aspect had most challenged her, and she laughed. “The logistics were relatively straightforward but appalling and often defamatory attacks on me and our volunteers – mostly delivered anonymously on social media – were unsettling.

“Some people decided what we were doing threatened their power in the community. Thankfully that stopped after the 2020 Noosa Council elections. We’ve now had two clear years to get on with the job – building community involvement, finding volunteers, raising money, developing management systems…. the club is now ready to move forward operationally.” So why, after huge personal effort and stress, was McCready now choosing to move on? “It’s the right time. The community no longer has to fight to regain its club and we’ve got

our kids back on the beach. The naysayers are sidelined and I’m able to fully engage in other community activities. “Peregian Family & Friends is still involved and a new Surf Club Supporter’s Club is readying itself to contribute to the club’s $230250,000 a year revenue requirement.” McCready said facilities remained a major issue. “The surf club building is rated the third worst clubhouse in Queensland. The Council budgeted $90,000 for painting but funds are needed to provide acceptable facilities for volunteers and Nippers.” So far Peregian Family & Friends has banked over $50,000 on behalf of the community for rebuilding the clubhouse. The surf club has income from Peregian Beach Markets and is working to establish a kiosk. The Supporter’s Club is seeking to earn future income from hiring out the first floor of the clubhouse and opening up community membership. A real game-changer has been a more positive attitude from Noosa Council which, under Mayor Clare Stewart, now recognises the role it needs to play in the club’s revival. Straight-talking Councillor Amelia Lorentson understands and has applauded “the tireless efforts of Leigh McCready in reviving the Peregian surf club [as] an integral part in [its] formation”. And former councillor Ingrid Jackson, who observed the Peregian surf club’s conflicts first-hand, observed, “That one person could push through the obstacles she has and remain a study in cool elegance takes courage, determination and ability. McCready is a life force.” Now Leigh McCready has put those struggles behind her. As President of the Noosa LNP branch and a senior member of a number of other important local organisations, she has quite enough on her plate.

Noosa MP Sandy Bolton, Push Mobility managing director Shane Hryhorec, and Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart.

Visiting Noosa’s Main Beach is a pastime people of all abilities can now enjoy.

Beach access welcomed Visiting Noosa’s Main Beach is a pastime people of all abilities can now enjoy, with the installation of a new beach access mat. “Whether you use a wheelchair or mobility scooter, have health issues that make walking on sand difficult, or even just have kids in strollers or prams, the new mat will ensure everyone gets to enjoy a visit to the beach,” Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart said. Funded by Tewantin-Noosa Lions Club, Noosa MP Sandy Bolton, and Council, the 50-metre Mobi-Mat will be in place at the access ramp in front of the surf club 365 days a year, except during storms and king tides. The Mobi-Mat, which is made from 100 per cent recycled material, provides a firm, safe, cool and stable surface for beachgoers. “To finally see this becoming a reality after much negotiation is much appreciated for

those who are otherwise unable to experience what many of us take for granted,” Ms Bolton said. “It has been a long journey since Libby Doherty first contacted our office in 2020 about the need for better access to Noosa Beach for those with mobility issues, and our thanks go to all who contributed to make this a reality.” Push Mobility managing director Shane Hryhorec knows first-hand how important it is to ensure everyone has access to nature’s playground. “I’ve been a wheelchair since 2007. I broke my neck in a swimming pool when I hit the bottom, broke two vertebras, and drowned,” Mr Hryhorec said. “I used to be a surf lifesaver, so I spent a lot of time at the beach. After my accident I thought the beach wasn’t a place I’d be able to

enjoy again but it turns out, the beach can be enjoyed by people with disabilities.” Tewantin-Noosa Lions Club spokesman Michael Roach said the club was pleased to help fund the access mat, which will benefit so many people. Acting club president Ian Glew said, “Under our Lions Mobility Programme we are most supportive of this new community project/ facility. “Our research in the area reveals that over 320 children are wheelers. One wheeler’s mother said that it is not only about getting to the water, but her child being able to experience playing in the sand,” Mr Glew said. Cr Amelia Lorentson, who brought the mat proposal to Mayor Stewart for Council support, said it would greatly help kids taking part in the Seahorse Nippers program.

“The Mobi-Mat will greatly improve access for the kids who take part in this important program, as well as many thousands of other locals and visitors who might otherwise miss out on a day at the beach,” Cr Lorentson said. “I am so overwhelmed by the generosity of spirit in this community. Noosa is an inclusive community, and no-one needed convincing that beaches should be accessible to everyone.” Sandy Bolton provided $11,000 for the project, Tewantin Noosa Lions Club donated $5000 with Council contributing the rest of the $21,500 cost. “SLSQ and the Noosa lifeguards have also been very supportive and have helped bring the project to fruition,” Cr Stewart said. Noosa Main Beach will now be added to a national database of beaches that accommodate all abilities - accessiblebeaches.com

Oyster project go ahead Council will negotiate an extension of its partnership with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) to allow State Permits to be finalised and reef restoration work to begin. Council’s Ordinary Meeting on Thursday authorised the chief executive officer to negotiate the extension of the three-year alliance agreement due to end in September this year. Deputy Mayor Frank Wilkie said project progress, measured against deliverable targets and publicly reported in three six-monthly and three annual reports, had noted delays in gaining the permits needed from the State Government. “Although TNC is involved in 11 reef restoration projects around Australia, the Noosa River oyster restoration project is breaking new ground for aquatic restoration in Australia as there are no similar other permanent restoration projects underway in waterways similar to Noosa River.” Cr Wilkie said the $3.6 million project which had attracted $2.4 million in external funding from TNC and the Federal Government’s Reef Builder program, was among 60 TNC intended completing around Australia. “This evidence and science-based collaboration involves our traditional owners, all three levels of government, a world leading conservation organisation, local businesses, community groups, philanthropic contributions, universities, recreational fishing group Ozfish and the Bribie Island Research Centre,” Cr Wilkie said. “Just as forests clean the air and provide habitat for land-based animals, oyster reefs clarify the water and provide habitat for marine creatures, improving water quality, enriching marine biodiversity. “Prior to extending, Council will revisit how any risks associated with the project are mitigated and incorporated into the key performance indicators to provide additional checks, balances and accountability.

Oyster shells being recycled for the Noosa River project. “The Queensland Government has since issued an Owner’s Consent Approval to allow the council assessment of works in the river and a General Fisheries Permit for oyster handling. “TNC has been approved as a Registered Resource Provider and has been working with local business to re-use, clean and cure oyster shells. TNC has also obtained necessary Fisheries Permits. “TNC is still awaiting Resource Allocation Authority (RAA) from the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) to establish the reefs in the river bed, but this approval is expected shortly,” he said.

“TNC has had to provide sophisticated restoration and site management plans, detailed risk assessments, and multiple regulatory code and environmental assessments. “The State has also requested ecological mapping and site engineering, as well as multiple contingency measures for the construction and site management aspects of the project. This information has all been completed.” The Nature Conservancy is a world-leading conservation organisation, having worked on evidence and science-based projects in more than 70 countries. Council’s Environmental Services Manager

Shaun Walsh said oysters were an important part of a healthy aquatic ecosystem, providing habitat and a rich food source for fish and other marine life. “Dr Ruth Thurstan’s 2015 historical study confirmed a dramatic decline in oysters and fish stocks in the Noosa River over many years,” he said. “A hectare of rebuilt oyster reef will filter 2.7 billion litres of water annually, remove 166 kilograms of nutrient pollution and also produce 375 kilograms of new fish so there is no doubt as to the important role they play in supporting healthy aquatic ecosystems.”

Beach rollovers increase Rangers patrolling beaches in the Great Sandy Strait are warning drivers there will be a serious injury or fatality after 11 beach rollovers during the Easter long weekend. Ranger Erin Atkinson said people driving on the beach must drive to conditions as the shifting sands and tides can be unforgiving. “Rainbow Beach Towing advised QPWS they attended 11 rollovers across Teewah, the Cooloola Coast and K’gari over the weekend,” Ms Atkinson said. “This number of beach rollovers during a long weekend is unacceptable and that is 11 or more possible fatalities that were somehow avoided. “We’re seeing inexperienced beach drivers ignoring the conditions and getting into trouble, and experienced drivers ignoring the rules. “Thankfully everyone involved in these rollovers escaped serious injury, but many of the vehicles have been completely ruined by rolling over or being swamped by the tide. “The people involved in those rollovers are extremely lucky to be alive and uninjured, and they’ve walked away with memories they’ll keep but not the ones they wanted.“ Darren Daniels from Rainbow Beach Towing said all the rollovers were caused by hu-

There were 11 vehicle rollovers reported along the stretch of sand between Teewah Beach and K’Gari over the Easter long weekend. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries or fatalities reported with any of the accidents. man error and impatience. “People were driving at the top of the tide, on the edge of the dunes and the bank simply gave way,” Mr Daniels said.

“One guy wasn’t even in his car. He parked on the dune and a big wave washed into the dune and his car toppled. “When they topple, they fill up with saltwa-

ter and sand and their cars are a total writeoff. People are in a hurry, they’re risking their expensive cars and some of them weren’t insured. “I want people to be safe on the Cooloola Coast. Everyone knows not to drive two hours either side of high tide, but they do it anyway.” Ms Atkinson said driving on vegetated sand dunes was unlawful and could damage vegetation and habitat for nesting turtles and shorebirds. “At the weekend, a driver not only rolled his vehicle over, he also received a $275 fine for driving on vegetated sand dunes and had to pay a towing fee,” she said. “Normal road rules apply to the beach, so people must slow down, drive to the conditions and wear a seatbelt. “We also work with the Queensland Police Service in the ongoing Operation Sand Strike which is designed to keep drivers and people on our beaches safe. “There’s fun to be had at the beach but there’s no fun in a fatality, and hopefully those 11 drivers, their friends and those in the area learned valuable lessons at the weekend.” For more information about beach driving, visit parks.des.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_ file/0022/152545/driving-on-sand.pdf

Rasta here for regen expo By Phil Jarratt Country Noosa’s regenerative farming expo at The Apollonian Hotel in Boreen Point on Thursday 5 May is gaining momentum with surfer/permaculture guru Dave Rastovich and partner Lauren Hill confirmed as headliners. Rasta, the former champion free surfer and environmental warrior who gained global fame for his group’s efforts to free dolphins about to be killed commercially in Japan, depicted in the Oscar-winning 2009 documentary The Cove, has spent much of the past decade alongside Lauren building a groundbreaking permaculture garden that will feed a whole community. Working with permaculture specialist Geoff Lawton, with whom the couple has worked on podcasts, they have planned the garden on their 20-acre property near Byron Bay to have the capacity to feed six to eight families that live nearby, the goal being to reduce the distance the food has to travel, eat generally healthier, bring back a diverse eco-system to a neglected plot of land, and strengthen their community. They have reconfigured the land to work with its natural patterns. Beginning with level terraced gardens and footpaths to absorb water, the garden also includes the option to use water from road runoff if necessary, while portable chicken coops that can easily be moved around help to regenerate the slopes below and create compost that will enrich the soil. When Dave and Lauren bought it, the property had been grazed by cattle for a century. With the exception of a grove of towering eucalyptus, everything else had been eaten down to the roots. After building a small cabin to live in, Dave and Lauren set about regenerating, planting 7000 native trees and studying permaculture to understand how the property worked.

This is what regeneration can look like. But don’t get the idea that it’s all work and no play for the power couple of Byron permaculture. As surf writer Sean Doherty reported: “The couple’s love for the ocean grew into an environmental consciousness that demanded a better approach to food, [but] the garden and the waves compete for their time. That’s the cycle of life around here; when the waves are good, the garden suffers. “Lauren and I are both such surf rats,” Dave saud, “that if the waves are good for weeks on

end, the garden either runs wild or dies.” Despite this occasional priority battle, the couple are serious about their food choices contributing to a better world. While Dave grew up eating healthy food on properties in his birthplace of New Zealand, Florida-born Lauren didn’t know the meaning of grow your own until more recent times. Their journey together, with son Minoa, is fascinating and they’ll be sharing insights at The Apollonian. An awareness raiser for the World Wildlife

Fund’s Innovate To Regenerate campaign, supported locally by Country Noosa and Permaculture Noosa, the expo will kick off at 4pm with information and produce stalls on the lawn and guest speakers. On dark comes the Noosa premiere of Damon Gameau’s Regenerating Australia documentary, followed by live music. Fresh dishes from The Apollonian’s own permaculture garden will be available throughout the event. This is a free event but please register your attendance at countrynoosa.org

Poisoned trees checked Noosa Council has been called to investigate illegal tree clearing or interference on several occasions in recent years with the latest at Serenity Close at Noosa Heads. A resident reported the unnatural death of trees located between a building and expansive view. “This has been reported to Council who have inspected the site and have stated that, in fact, a corridor of trees is involved and poisoning seems likely,“ he said. “The community needs to be informed as it is a potentially serious matter. If human intervention is the cause, then this is a criminal act which is not without precedence in Noosa.“ Council confirmed it had recently received a complaint about trees dying in the covenant area of a Serenity Close development, exposing some of the buildings. Environment and sustainable development director Leo Jensen said Council was currently investigating this matter.

“Initial inspections indicate that the vegetation may have been interfered with,“ he said. “Tests are being carried out to determine the possible causes, including soil testing.“ Mr Jensen said the area was protected by an environmental covenant on the title to provide a treed backdrop to Noosa inlet and it was also an important wildlife corridor with koalas known to move through the area. “In the past, there have been several instances of illegal clearing or interference with trees over the last five years in the Noosa LGA. Council has issued infringements for these breaches for the area to be rehabilitated.”

Damaged trees at Serenity Close are highlighted.

Council orders private jetty must be shortened By Margie Maccoll

Mayor Clare Stewart said with Council having OK-ed the jetty people who purchased the property at number 10 were under duress through no fault of their own. They have applied to get rid of the jet ski construction in good faith but removing the end 3m of the jetty would mean the jetty would no longer reach to water for mooring. “With no water flow it would be non-feasible, non-usable. To make it usable would require dredging,“ she said. She said measurements showed two boats would live happily side by side and not be constrained to a very small boat in its cur-

rent form with residents of 8 Ravenwood currently sharing a jetty with another neighbour. Cr Frank Wilkie said the jetty didn’t have approval in its current form and should be fixed now as it would continue to impact future amenity access to the neighbouring property. It’s unfortunate for the current owners but dredging is a common practice in canals, he said. Councillors voted four to three in favour of refusing the approval of the jetty.

12541004-CG14-22

It was a lesson in buyer-beware and the cost of neighbour impacts in Council last week when a private jetty built almost 30 years ago was ordered to be shortened, leaving the owners forced to dredge to moor their vessel. A Noosa Sound private jetty built 3m longer than its planning approval 28 years ago will have to be modified to meet Council approval and enable neighbours to build a jetty of their own. David and Penelope Gibson applied for a retrospective approval of the 9m long jetty

shared between 10-12 Ravenwood Drive and a jet ski dry storage pontoon that extends from their property at the curved end of a canal. At its Ordinary Meeting last Thursday councillors heard Council records show the jetty construction had been marked with an “OK“ in 1995 to show its approval, with current officers assuming it may not have been measured to check its length at the time. Officers said the jetty impacted plans by the neighbour at 8 Ravenwood Drive to build their own jetty. Councillors argued for and against the approval.

Celebrating Mum - Mother’s Day 2022

12547117-CG17-22

For beautiful gifts Noosaville fashion label Ella & Sunday is where you’ll find the most beautiful gift this Mother’s Day. The label launched in 2015 with a simple design approach to create stunning clothing you can wear every day. At the heart of the label is designer Rani Wilkinson and her love of natural fibres. Rani studied fashion production and honed her skills in a career that includes experience in both bespoke and ready to wear production houses.

Fashion has run in her blood since childhood. “Inspired by a love of family, the label takes its name from my beautiful daughter, Ella,“ Rani said. “Our limited collections are made under our watchful eye in ethically-managed fashion houses in India. We visit our tailors and work alongside the teams who make our garments.” Their latest collection, Destination Unknown, was created with travel to far flung places in mind, both home and abroad.

“These past two years of dreaming has now become a reality,” Rani said. “Our limited collection is filled with transseasonal pieces that can be mixed, layered, and reimagined time and time again. “Denim, hand block prints and unique basics combine to create the perfect travel wardrobe which can be dressed up or down depending on your destination.” Check out the Ella & Sunday showroom at 3/40 Gateway Drive, Noosaville. For more information visit their website ellaandsunday.com.au or call 07 5455 5656.

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.

Perrone and Fabio Paulucci, commenced operations in 2017 and the company has grown rapidly over the last three years resulting in four factory relocations to larger premises. Today Aussie Tiny Houses employs 35 people. The homes have wheels and are easily relocatable. They are categorised as caravans and, as such, are not subject to local planning regulations Aussie Tiny Houses offer incredible versatility. They may be used when property downsizing, for holiday homes, as granny flats, for AirBnB purposes, or for emergency accommodation. In the case of the latter, ATH has recently supplied two homes to the Noosabased organisation You Tur” to support homeless youth. In 2019 Thiago and Fabio recognised they would benefit from outside expertise to help them accelerate the growth of their business. Rather than employ expensive consultants, they approached Business Mentoring Noosa (BMN) - as Thiago says “ for an annual subscription to BMN of $195 we have unlimited access to some of the brightest business brains on the Sunshine Coast”. The initial meetings focused on developing a new sales and marketing strategy which resulted in sales growing 100 per cent over two years and is expected to increase by a further 50 per cent this year. In addition, BMN provided help and guid-

ance on all financial aspects of the business - product costing, cost control, profit margins and cash flow. “I was particularly impressed by the flexibility shown by the mentors - sometimes they acted as a great sounding board for our ideas whilst in other areas they provided much needed technical advice,“ Fabio said. As the manufacturing side of the business has become a priority issue, BMN has recently introduced a mentor with production and project management expertise. Aussie Tiny Homes is now into its third year of mentoring and is on a strong upward growth trajectory. Thiago believes “the role of the mentoring continues to adapt to meet our changing business needs - without doubt BMN has been a catalyst in helping us become a highly successful and profitable business. What better value can you get for $195 a year?”. BMN president David Bell said: “whether you are a small family business facing challenges or a business owner who needs someone to talk to, or requires guidance in areas outside your comfort zone, Business Mentoring Noosa can help”.

Cooler and cleaner school This week Noosa District State High School had the opportunity to have Nicklin MP Robert Skelton and Caloundra MP Jason Hunt visit the school. The school was one of four in the state selected to showcase and celebrate their infrastructure projects and the completion of the Cooler, Cleaner Schools initiative that has provided much needed air-conditioning to their classrooms across both campuses. The Cooler, Cleaner Schools initiative project ensured every classroom, library and staff room in every Sunshine Coast state school was air conditioned in time for Term 2, 2022 as part of the State Government’s $477 million Cooler Cleaner Schools Program. Mr Skelton and Mr Hunt announced the achievement had been delivered more than two months ahead of schedule at Noosa District State High School.

Nicklin MP Robert Skelton and Caloundra MP Jason Hunt visited Noosa District State High School. Noosa District State High School principal Stacy Wilmore said that the new air conditioning was well received by the local school com-

munity, particularly given the local climate. “Controlled temperatures ensure all students stay healthy, comfortable and focused

in any weather and they also ensure both students and teachers are motivated to work to the best of their abilities,“ Ms Wilmore said. “It feels comfortable to study and learn in an environment without being impacted by external factors like the temperature. “The air conditioning project has significantly improved the quality of our learning environments across both of our campuses for students and has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from our entire school community. “This program has already helped our students and staff feel more comfortable in teaching and learning environments.“ Mr Hunt said the use of air ventilation and air conditioning systems that introduced fresh air from outside could help minimise transmission of Covid-19 in schools.

Learning with the experts Good Shepherd Lutheran students are getting a hands-on experience at Noosa River restoration efforts, thanks to a unique collaboration between The Noosa Environmental Education Hub (Noosa EEHub) and The Nature Conservancy (TNC). Over the past few weeks, Year 11 and 12 marine science students have learnt about work being undertaken by TNC and partners on the Noosa River Oyster Restoration Project. Through educational resources developed by EEHub that Good Shepherd Lutheran has incorporated into its curriculum, they are learning about river ecosystems and Traditional river management by Aunty Bev Hand, Kabi Kabi Traditional Custodian and Noosa EEHub Aboriginal Educator. With guidance from the Hub, the school is adopting its local waterway, improving riparian health and conducting ongoing waterbug analysis for citizen science purposes. The students will collaborate with the Noosa Integrated Catchment Association’s Oyster Gardening Project which will endeavour to grow oyster spat in baskets suspended in the Noosa River to supplement the newly established reefs. Restoring oyster ecosystems is a critical project on the road to reviving the health of the Noosa River system. Students will also undertake hypothesis testing of the impacts on oyster growth in controlled lab environments as well as learn about species identification and other assessment techniques of the Noosa River. Year 11 and 12 students said they were enjoying working on real-life projects that gave life to their curriculum while giving back to community. Providing students with hands-on opportunities to learn essential curriculum has been a goal of EEHub and TNC over the past couple of

Dahlia Mikhail and Aunty Bev Hand teach students about the river. years. For example, through the Noosa EEHub Bushfire Recovery curriculum, students undertake transect studies of the Peregian Beach bushfire site, learn about Traditional and cur-

rent fire management practices, and restore sites via weeding and planting. Noosa EEhub will continue to develop curriculum programs that support the restoration

of the Noosa River in collaboration with local river management groups. This education program is funded with thanks from The Thomas Foundation, Noosa Shire Council and TNC.

Student embraces Lions’ public speaking challenge What do the well-known names Kevin Rudd, Peter Beattie, ABC’s Sabra Lane, Senator Simon Birmingham and Good Shepherd Year 12 student Jolie May have in common? They are all past participants of the Lions Youth of the Year Program. Jolie recently took part in the district finals of the Lions Youth of the Year competition in Bundaberg on 19 March. This follows her success at the regional finals at the Sunrise Beach Uniting Church on 12 March, where she was awarded the overall finalist for the region. Jolie represented the Tewantin Noosa Lions Club, as well as Good Shepherd, at the district finals in Bundaberg. A range of students from St Patrick’s College in Gympie, Rockhampton Grammar School, and Bundaberg State High School took part as regional finalists. Each student needed to prepare a formal application form detailing their community, leadership, sporting, cultural, and academic

achievements, as well as respond to a series of questions in a formal interview with a panel of community members. The public speaking component involved contestants responding to two unseen questions and presenting a prepared five- minute speech on a topic of their choice. The impromptu questions at the district finals focused on students identifying the main issues affecting young people in today’s world and what strategies could help overcome some of the challenges that they were facing. Jolie received the Public Speaking award, and the overall winning student was Harshitha Peddireddy from the Rockhampton-Fitzroy Lions Club. Head of senior years studies at Good Shepherd, Matt Armstrong said, “The Lions Youth of the Year Program is a fabulous program designed to encourage, foster and develop leadership in conjunction with other citizenship qualities in our youth, just as they are about

to enter the fields of employment or higher education. “At Good Shepherd we see it as our duty to provide students with the incentive to pay greater attention to the general qualities, so vital in developing our students into first class citizens.” Mr Armstrong was very impressed by Jolie’s performance. “It has been wonderful to see Jolie’s participation in the competition go from strength to strength, and we commend her on reaching this level of representation. Well done, Jolie.” Good Shepherd principal Anthony Dyer said, “The College has proudly been participating in this very valuable competition for many years. “We encourage student interest in leadership and the qualities required to take an active and constructive role in the community and we look forward to following Jolie in her future endeavours.”

Jolie May’s love for public speaking helped her in her quest for the Public Speaking Trophy for 2022.

Check out options to reduce your power bill.

Joe Schlegeris.

Cut bills and carbon print Ever wondered how you can reduce your power bill and your emissions? Joe Shlegeris recently shared some hints at the ZEN E Community Forum in Cooroy about how he and his family have saved money on their power bills over many years. Joe said: “High on my top nine things to do list are getting rid of the old fridge in the garage. It is often inefficient, with leaky seals, in the hottest place in the house. Leave it unplugged until it is needed, use it. Then unplug it again to save money.” “Checking your kitchen fridge seal is a good idea. Fridges more than five years old often have seals that leak cold air. Replacing it makes your fridge more efficient and costs you less in power bills.” “Number three on my list is your kitchen jug. Boiling more water than you need each time is a waste of money. If you buy a metal jug with the element embedded in the base, you can boil one cup at a time. While it might cost

more to buy, it will save you money in the long run.” said Joe. “Another way of saving money is to reduce the time you use your pool pump. This reduces the amount of power it uses, and your pool will still be clean to use,” Joe added. “Number five on my list is running your air conditioner more efficiently. If you close all external doors and windows, clean the filter regularly, keep the compressor clean and run it at 21 or 22 degrees, you will use less power and save money. “ “Next is LED lights. They use less power, they last longer and save you money.” If you have a solar system, Joe recommends changing the way you think about using your solar system. “Use as much power as you can during the day. Have your hot water heating in the middle of the day using power from your solar system, and run your dishwasher and washing ma-

chine. This is cheaper than having them running at night when you are buying power back from the grid at a higher price.” Being an early adopter of solar PV, Joe is a big fan. “I suggest a solar PV system if you haven’t already got one. Not only will it save you money in reduced power bills, but by getting the biggest system you can, you will be future proofing your household’s power costs. In the future, you may also be able to charge your electric car’s battery from your solar system and then use the power stored in your car’s battery at night to run your house. Maybe you won’t even have to buy power,” Joe said. Joe’s final useful tip, “By installing solar, you are reducing your carbon footprint by reducing the emissions from power generation. Always get good a quality solar PV system and use a local installer who will be able to help you with servicing to keep your solar PV system running at it’s peak to save you money.”

Noosaville VIEW Club president Vivian retires Vivian Davidson has been a member of VIEW for 25 years and of the Noosaville VIEW Club for 11 years. She has just turned 90 and decided to hand over the president’s role but will continue to be an active member. Her particular interest recently has been communicating with the 10 Learning for Life students sponsored by the local club. At the annual general meeting in February, new president, Wendy Brooks was elected. Noosaville VIEW Club is on the lookout for new members who want to give back to their community and make connections with women in the area. Ms Davidson, said this year was the perfect time to join VIEW. “The last two years have been so disrupted due to the Covid-19 pandemic,“ she said. “Many of us have missed out on seeing friends and family, and our club has been like a second family for us during these times. Many people have also moved away from the city to the regions and coming to a new

place can be isolating – especially given the current circumstances. “For those who are new to the area, VIEW provides the perfect place to meet likeminded women, while doing something that makes a difference.“ VIEW, which stands for Voice, Interests and Education of Women, is a network of close to 300 clubs and over 14,000 women throughout Australia. It provides a place for women to connect in the community, enjoy social activities, and develop lasting friendships – all while supporting the work of children’s education charity, The Smith Family. Noosaville VIEW Club meets every fourth Thursday of the month at the Tewantin RSL. Some of the recent guest speakers include Sandy Bolton and Tony Wellington. The club hosts social events including lunches and river cruises and also joins in celebrations with other VIEW Clubs in the Zone such as Maroochydore and Bribie Island. Anyone interested in becoming a member can email noosavilleview@gmail.com or find them on Facebook.

OPINION NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Elections like beer shows The Meet the Candidates spread (NT 22/4) provided helpful information on the hopefuls contesting the seat of Wide Bay. Federal elections are like a beer show where the people choose the brew they will be stuck with for the next three years, whether they like the winner or not. The 2019 winner, LNP Born to Rule lager, is offering more of the same, with some slight variation due to climate change, although few believe this to be anything more than a token gesture. Despite the best efforts of Scotty from Marketing, ongoing ructions within the firm have undermined public confidence in this brand. As the biblical saying goes, a house divided against itself cannot stand. The 2019 runner-up, Labor’s Tory Lite, is now lighter than ever before, and will not put much fire in the belly of its remaining rustedon supporters. Still, a public fed up with rorts and infighting within the Born to Rule camp may well turn to the traditional alternative, provided Chairman Albo can avoid tripping over his loose shoelaces again. The Greens’ offering is considerably stronger than Tory Lite, but seasoned drinkers say it is actually an inner-city chardonnay marketed in green bottles to make it look like a popular beer. This brand’s 2019 foray into mining regions turned out to be a disaster for the progressive parties, but if it can avoid a fiasco this time around it may become the kingmaker in the Members’ Bar at Canberra. The Utopia Australia Party’s King Canute stout promises to hold back the tide of rising interest rates. If the King can accomplish this, then the banks will gladly lend out money at a loss and pigs will fly. Fans of Pauline Hanson’s Please Explain pilsner say it is like a pale lager on steroids, with a pronounced bitterness. This brew is popular with those who yearn for an Australia as it used to be. However, the history of implosions that have wrecked previous incarnations of the brand must raise concerns that history will repeat itself. Trying to select an independent or boutique brew is like going into Dan Murphy’s. There are just too many obscure brands to make an informed choice on the spot. Nevertheless, they should not all be discounted. In various houses of parliament there are some very effective independents who are doing their best to keep the Big Brands honest. And perhaps the big swings will go to independents in the current climate. Bill Bodkin, Sunshine Beach

There were at least 20 food and drinks vendors, most in portable vans. Some in permanent buildings. When you bought yourself a plate of food it came on a real plate and with real cutlery. You paid one Euro as a deposit and when you brought your utensils back you got your Euro back. Drinks were sold in real glasses, and you paid a deposit which was retrievable on return. Some people of course did not bother to return their things (these were collected by the staff on a non-stop basis) and those people forfeited their deposit. But somehow, I cannot imagine it would work here! Or could it? Gabriela Geispitzheim, Noosa Heads

Fact check Advertising platforms are currently being blitzed with political advertising. When this is blatantly dishonest, it must be called out. The Liberal party is running on the line that they are good economic managers. This is nowhere near the truth. Both the OEDC and the IMF put paid to these lies. Before the LNP won office in 2013, the IMF reported that Australia had the world’s best

performing economy. It now ranks well outside the world’s top 20, having dropped to 60th performing nation. The IMF shows general government gross debt as a percentage of GDP for all 59 advanced economies. This is easily accessed. In 2012, Labor’s last full year, Australia’s debt was 27.5 per cent of GDP, and ranked ninth on the OECD’s list. By 2021, debt had ballooned to 62.1 per cent, ranking a miserable 30th. Hence, 29 advanced economies now have less debt than Australia. The LNP will blame this result on Covid, but because we are an island that closed its borders, and had decisive actions taken by our state premiers, we were better off than many nations, in spite of the poor handling of vaccinations by the Morrison government. Because of the border closures, migration to Australia stopped, so the flow of people taking local jobs stopped. This is the reason that unemployment figures dropped markedly, not because of good economic management! Joy Ringrose, Pomona

Councils are elected by a community to make decisions on behalf of that community and to provide it with services. However, the public legitimacy for the decisions a council makes depends in large part on the extent to which it engages with its community when making decisions. At this month’s Ordinary meeting, I tried twice, both times unsuccessfully (4:3) to move an amendment to the Oyster Project that requested that Council consult with stakeholders and the broader community to gauge over all community support for the Renewal of the Noosa River Alliance & Funding Agreement between Noosa Council and The Nature Conservancy and that Council provide a further report on the outcomes of the consultation prior to entering into any further agreement. I supported Council’s report which stated “the project had notable risks”. I argued that these risks were in my opinion (IMO) significant and that community

support on this project was notably split. Councillors had received a submission supported by eight community associations to end the Alliance Agreement in September, 2022 as intended because key milestones have not been achieved, the Project does not represent value for the community and because no detailed disclosure of expenditure has been provided to the community. Councillors had also received emails from three community associations and residents supporting the continuation of the Alliance. In a nutshell, I was told that Council had already undertaken extensive community consultation and that the community consultation horse had already bolted given the late stage of the agreement. I disagreed. It is my opinion that any decision we make as a Council must have the support of the greater community. It is ratepayer money, and it should be spent in the public interest

on issues that are important to them. When a community is divided and there is an opportunity to enable participatory democracy, then IMO we have the responsibility to do so. Leadership is about finding balance. Finding the middle ground. Or said another way, common round. That is how we build and strengthen communities. And, more importantly, that is how we build confidence in the community that Council is listening and making decisions in their best interests. This is the opinion of Cr Amelia Lorentson, and does not represent the views or majority decision of Council.

On The Soapbox Deputy Mayor Frank Wilkie

Motion gives clear choice Deputy Mayor Frank Wilkie’s speech against a motion to end the partnership with The Nature Conservancy: World renowned naturalist and documentary maker, Sir David Attenborough famously asks, how could we look our grandchildren in the eye and say we knew what was happening to our world and did nothing? Sir David may be surprised to see here today that not only are some custodians wanting to do nothing, they’re actively trying to stop others from doing something. This motion gives all councillors a crystal-clear choice between what regrettably appears to be an attempt at undermining, or support for an evidence-based, sciencebacked Noosa River health partnership that brings $2.4 million in external investment to Noosa, Kabi Kabi involvement and jobs in a project that preserves Noosa’s practice and reputation for responsible natural asset management. Sir David has consistently urged communities and all levels of government to do everything in their power to address the decline in our life-sustaining ecosystems and biodiversity.

He also advises that by an innovative, evidence-based, science-backed approach, we can help restore the balance. Or not. That’s our as choice as responsible custodians today. We know that as forests clean the air and provide habitat for land-based animals, oyster reefs clarify the water and provide habitat for marine creatures, improving water quality, enriching marine biodiversity. Cleaner water, more fish. The report by Dr Ruth Thurstan of the University of Queensland showed oyster reefs were once abundant throughout the Noosa River system, as were vastly greater numbers of fish. The Seagrass Survey shows that in our lifetime between 1987 to 2020 the decline in Noosa River’s seagrass has been up to 100 per cent in some areas. The economic, environmental and sociocultural benefits of restoration projects are so apparent that all three levels of government are working with The Nature Conservancy to this end. Draft State permit approvals are already being circulated. The advice is that the reefs could be in by September. The six-monthly report lists

the 33 or more project milestones. Almost all of them have been achieved or are on track with only about four on hold or delayed. This is due to the complexity of issuing permits for something that’s never been done in a river system before. We know that The Nature Conservancy have delivered on all the elements of this partnership within their control to achieve. The Nature Conservancy is injecting $1.2million into improving the Noosa River system and has attracted another $1.2M for Noosa from the Federal Government’s Reef Builder program. The Federal Government granted $20 million to the Nature Conservancy to help restore oyster reefs around Australia, including in Noosa, because they understand these projects strengthen communities and economies while protecting biodiversity. Noosa is one of at least 11 coastal communities – from south-east Queensland right around Australia’s southern coastline to Perth in Western Australia where the TNC are doing such work. During reef building, a variety of jobs are created, ranging from barge operators, to truck

drivers, to shellfish growers and divers. After construction, the reefs provide shared longterm benefits such as cleaner water and more fish habitat and numbers. Today councillors demonstrate by show of hands who really means it when they say they support three levels of government working together, that they want to “create jobs”, that they support evidence-based decision-making or initiatives that involve local businesses. Voting today is proof of who genuinely seeks and respects engagement with our Traditional Owners, who supports the work done by Dahlia Mikhail’s Noosa Environmental Education Hub in our schools, who genuinely wants meaningful partnerships with universities and community groups, and who wants to help restore and enrich our natural assets. Sir David advises that we are at a unique stage in our history. Never before have we had such an awareness of what we are doing to the planet, and never before have we had the power to do something about that. Surely, we all have a responsibility. The future depends on us. The council ultimately voted 5-2 in favour of continuing the TNC partnership.

On The Soapbox Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart

Why Mayor called to end Noosa River oyster agreement Council has voted to negotiate an extension of its partnership with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) to allow state permits to be finalised and the Noosa River oyster restoration work to begin. While I respect the decision of the full council, I voted against this project being renewed for the following reasons that are solely my opinion and not that of the full Council. The Alliance and Funding Agreement between The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and Noosa Shire Council, ratified by the previous council in 2019, outlined funding of $1.2m towards the initiatives from TNC and a matching investment from Council of $1.2m over a period of three years. I felt we were betting ratepayer money on a project where we had no guarantees and therefore, when dealing with public monies, we must always err on the side of caution. Since this Council was formed in April 2020,

the Oyster Reef Restoration Project has come before us on occasion. Nearly two years ago, I requested all documentation and correspondence between the TNC and the State Government regarding the state approvals required for this project. According to the agreement, it was the requirement of TNC to ‘obtain all required State Government permits/authorities for installation of oyster reefs’ and this was to be completed within 12 months, which would mean state permits should have been achieved by 1 July 2020. After nearly two years of delay, we were advised verbally that the State had issued conditional permits. This council had not been able to undo the signed contract but it had the opportunity to review the agreement and argue as to whether we should enter a new agreement, partnership, alliance or contract with the same

Mayor Clare Stewart. party going forward. I believe the hard-earned monies of our ratepayers could have been better allocated to projects that could be delivered and results achieved in the near future. The funding quarantined and allocated for this project could have been realigned on oth-

ers, which could have been instigated and implemented right here right now with little or no risk to our community and be of great benefit to our community and our waterways. As well as the alternate motions, I also put forward an amendment to garnish further openness and transparency in regard to the project. This amendment would allow Council to review the procurement process to instigate the project, risks associated with the project and how these are to be mitigated and incorporated into key performance indicators and any other matters that the council should be made aware of in entering into the agreement. Majority of the Council voted in favour of the project at Council’s Ordinary Meeting last Thursday, authorising the chief executive officer to negotiate the extension of the three-year alliance agreement due to end in September this year and I respect their decision.

Erica Evans, Diversity in Nature.

Diversity in nature at Pomona A collaboration between four local artists has resulted in Diversity in Nature, an exhibition at Pomona Railway Station Gallery’s Carriage Room during May. Natalie Barlow and Erica Evans bring their realistic styles to paintings of birds and landscapes. Natalie’s oils and Erica’s acrylics complement each other in their interpretation of the natural world. Jeff Fraser is a woodturner and carver who transforms pieces of wood into richly tactile and very collectable bowls, spoons and hearts. Erica Harvey uses discarded elements and integrates them into living botanical artworks. A long-time collaborator with Jeff, she also carves beautiful spoons and hearts. Diversity in Nature opens on Saturday 7 May at 11am and is on show until 1 June. Meanwhile, Noosa Colours by Kasia Bekalarek is on show in the gallery’s Banana Shed from 30 April until 25 May. Kasia’s naïve painting style celebrates Noosa, particularly beaches, wildlife and birds. Pomona Railway Station Gallery is at 10 Station Street Pomona, open 10am4pm Tuesday to Friday and 10am to 2pm Saturday and Sunday. For more information contact the gallery on 5485 2950 or check the following websites: nataliesgraphics.com or pomonartgallery.com

Two plays featured in this year’s Anywhere Festival are related by more than blood but by a special bond of creativity. Mother and Daughter, both multi award winners for playwriting and direction have written and produced plays for this year’s festival that highlight the importance of humanitarianism. Tania Nash has written the multi award winning (Anywhere Theatre Festival 2019, 2021) Rogue Toad Trilogy, all social consciousness plays, the first two controversial contemporary Australian narrative (Racism, and Engagement & Obsession with Social Media) through the eyes of anthropomorphided animals. Sewer Rat will follow in their footsteps and explore the vehement subject of the plight of refugees within Australia. Highlighting the story of the Murugappan family from Biloela, this is a play about how conversations, compassion and community will get society further than debate and dispute. Tania has enlisted her husband Neil to play an angry racist rat and is no slouch when it comes to acting and writing, having just completed Icarus, a play based on the Icarus Myth and how it relates to depression and Robin Williams’ death. Sewer Rat is a lighthearted and humorous take on a very serious topic which aims to generate conversation rather than argument. Tania says “the development of works aiming to explore modern-day Australian social commentary on certain topics allows for creative expression between the creatives and the audience, and possible creative problem-solving in a world gone mad with sensitivity”. Virgo Nash is an emerging creative, an award-winning playwright, actress and theatre producer, studying a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Drama) and Business at QUT. Her first play, You Had Me at Hello, was awarded second place in Queensland Theatre Company’s 2018 Young Playwrighting Competition and received Best Play, Best Director and Bursary of Excellence at the Sunshine Coast Theatre Festival in 2019. Throne, in its early stage development, was performed as part of QUT Vena Cava Productions’ FreshBlood Festival and sold out both shows with glowing reviews. Virgo has since developed the work further and has enlisted her sister, multi-award winning actress Bodhi Nash, to play a lead role in Throne, a professional ballerina broken by

Sewer Rat will be performed in Noosa Junction next month. her mother’s expectations. Throne, a play set in a toilet, explores income inequality and the challenging upbringing of those with broken family units. Virgo aims to raise awareness, strengthen the community and unite citizens no matter what socioeconomic status they are. Throne is proudly supported by the Regional Arts Development Fund a partnership between the

Queensland Government and Noosa Council to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland. Sewer Rat and Throne are on in May (6,7,8) in the underground tunnels of the Springhill Reservoir in Brisbane and Noosa 13 and 14 May in Noosa Junction.

Renowned British composer Sir Karl Jenkins has sent a thank you to Noosa Chorale singers who will present one of his works, Stabat Mater next month. Sir Karl is one of the most performed living composers in the world and in his letter he says: Dear Noosa Chorale, “I understand that you will be performing my Stabat Mater in May. I extend my best wishes to you with the hope that you have a rewarding experience. “Apparently, you have performed my Armed Man twice and also my Requiem. Thank you for supporting my music; it is both humbling and gratifying that you do so. “It is great to have choirs (and orchestras)

the tragedy that is Ukraine. “Stay healthy, keep safe, keep singing! “Sir Karl Jenkins” As well as Stabat Mater,” which is based on a 13th century prayer, and has been described by Chorale music director Adrian King as “full of undoubted power and beautiful melodic touches,” the concert will include Gabriel Faure’s Requiem which Adrian considers “an inspirational work of art full of calm, lightness and serenity”. Adrian has invited experienced opera and oratorio soloists – sopranos Annika Hinrichs and Shirin Majd — and has also assembled a 44-piece symphony orchestra which he has named The Noosa Chorale Symphonia. “They come from the Sunshine Coast Symphony Orchestra, the Sunshine Coast Concert Band and the Pacific Players Ensemble.

He believes other people may wish to be enlightened as he was and will present his findings at the next Friday Environment Forum. While Charles Darwin is popularly recognised as the founder of Evolutionary Theory, Alfred Wallace should be acknowledged as equal co-founder. It was 1 July 1858, at the prestigious Linnaean Society London, that papers from both men were presented.

Curtains go up on festival From swimming pools to art galleries to gardens and carparks to bars and restaurants, the 2022 Anywhere Festival is a renaissance of all the things we’ve missed in our lives over the past two years. Having launched in Brisbane over 10 years ago, Anywhere Festival is quickly becoming a staple of the Coast’s cultural calendar with both locals and tourists loving the vibe of a festival that pops up where you least expect it. Since 2017, each May brings with it a unique blend of music, cabaret, circus and theatre creating extraordinary experiences in everyday places across the region. “Not only do you get a chance to get out and see an amazing show, but you get to discover the nooks and crannies of your local area at the same time,” said Toni Wills, creative producer of the Sunshine Coast and Noosa program. Anywhere Festival embraces the idea that performance should be for everyone, not just those who already attend traditional theatres. “For years, we have expected audiences to come to theatres for entertainment and Anywhere flips that idea on its head to bring performance to where audiences already are,”Toni said. Local businesses embrace the opportunity to be involved in the festival wanting to support artists and offer something different and unique to their existing clientele. With support from both Noosa Council and Sunshine Coast Council, Anywhere Festival has brought the community together allowing the creative industry to work with businesses to bring the arts back to life after a pandemic. Noosa Council Mayor Clare Stewart said, “This Festival is a great excuse for people to gather, especially after waiting two years for the return of the full fFestival program.” “I encourage audiences to support the arts sector and our local hospitality businesses who were so affected by Covid closures, by at-

Enjoy comedy As you Like It at the Lake Enjoy the fun and frivolity of Shakespeare’s romantic comedy, As You Like It, in the most stunning of settings. The sixth instalment of Little Seed Theatre Company’s annual Shakespeare at the Lake, As You Like It provides plenty of laughs. The story is set in the forest of Arden where dreamers and schemers seek a new world. All the world’s a stage in this setting overlooking beautiful Lake MacDonald. So pack a picnic, bring your favourite tipple, a cushion or two and get lost in the world of dukes, daughters and disguises, just how you like it. The company presented Romeo and Juliet as their first foray into Shakespeare in 2017, staging the show at the amphitheatre in the Noosa Botanical Gardens overlooking Lake MacDonald. This experience was a great delight for cast, director and the hundreds of audience members who turned out for the event that year. The success of the first year lead the company director to establish Shakespeare at the Lake as an annual event. Performed in May as part of the Anywhere Festival the event is a highlight for the company and has a wonderful reputation within the community for its vibrant costumes, strong sense of physical theatre and for bringing Shakespeare to life for modern audiences. While long term locals know the history of the grand Greek-style theatre in Noosa Botanical Gardens, newcomers and visitors may

Ida Duncan, Friend of Rotary, owned a property that formed the entry to the gardens and she hated to see the land used as a dump. After touring Greece and falling in love with their amphitheatres, Ida had an idea that the vacant hillside in the gardens could become an amphitheatre. While many said it could not be

done, Ida fundraised furiously and was undeterred. In 1997 the construction was completed and Ida’s dream became a reality. Celebrating nature, shifting gender roles and the absurdities of politics, confusion reigns supreme in this big hearted comedy by the Bard. Tickets are available through little-seed. com.au and the show plays May 14, 15, 21 and 22 at 2.30pm.

They received congratulatory letters from Queen Elizabeth II, Australian Governor-General David Hurley, Prime Minister Scott Morrison, Queensland Governor Jeannette Young, Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk, Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien and Noosa MP Sandy Bolton.

Against the backdrop of the past two years where Covid interfered with the release of a full program of events, Anywhere Festival is officially back and support is needed across the board for businesses and artists alike. Tickets are now available and on sale at anywhere.is

Fantastic coffee a few steps away, supplied by Rob’s Bus Stop Espresso - check. A visit to a botanical marvel - check. A picnic with the family - including the dog (on leash) - check. That’s the best five things you can wish for - and get - this Sunday May 1, at Noosa Botanic Gardens’ regular First Sunday of the month event. It’s not so different from most other First Sunday events at the gardens - but it’s so popular, why change things? Jay, who starts at 10am, has been progressively building the audience over the last few months, to make this the Sunday place to be, so come on down and check it out. The Friends of Noosa Botanic Gardens will be on hand to help with any enquiries - and the coffee’s on from 9am. Oh, the ’botanical marvel’ is the Shade Garden, which will open for the morning at 9 - well worth a visit. Noosa Botanic Gardens are on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy.

Cooler times are coming As the first proper cool change hit the coast, the winds suddenly arrived in time for another three-day weekend. In the lead up, many of us could only watch the glass out conditions and hope the weekend held out. Reports were coming in with good fish not only in the estuaries but the offshore scene too. Offshore the boats that made it out were rewarded mid-week with a great range of fish. Sunshine reef was popular and rightly so with single paternoster rigs sent down with live baits and pilchards for chunky sweetlip and coral trout. The trout were in good numbers with many more fish than usual boated against the sharks. Always make sure you have a live bait rig in your boat as many premium fish love a live bait. Other fish included both spotty and spanish mackerel which have both been quiet. If you can find the bait and the clean water, it is always worth sounding around and try dropping big 70 gram ++ jigs and chrome slugs down for a super fast retrieval. The XL Halco twisty is one of the best jigs for this style of fishing for mackerel. You may find a small length of single strand wire will prevent bite off’s so ask us how to make the right trace for better success. Out wide reports were varied with the occasional mackerel and longtail tuna. Everyone’s favorite, the snapper is starting to make more

of an appearance both wide and close. Out wide the bigger fish will be holding around the Banks and the Hards. Snapper will hit just about everything from baits to jigs and plastics. If you haven’t tried slow pitch, jigging a big snapper will make you glad you did. Using medium PE3 overhead setups matched to the new Shimano Genpu jig reels make the perfect all round combo. Grab some Shimano grappler braid and a handful of jigs and you are on your way to experiencing some of the best most productive fishing styles going. Off the rocks and beaches, smaller 40cm snapper are becoming more prolific. These fish have been caught from gutters and off the headlands of Noosa and Arkwright Shoal. Using gang hooked pilchard, strip bait rigged mullet have been the better baits. Try to fish around the turn in the tides as we move toward the new moon next week. The river remains stable following the lack of rain. We are seeing good numbers of flathead and trevally both on bait and lures. These are still holding in the lower part of the system around Munna Bridge, The sandbags and the dog beach. Bait anglers would do best with whitebait and hardy heads as bait. These can be fished whole and drifted along with the current. Lure anglers have a huge number of options to pick from but keeping it simple with 3 inch curl tail grubs and

paddle tails will appeal to lots of other fish. If you haven’t used them then Keitech should be on every bodies must have list. These premium Japanese plastics are some of the best available and we carry a wide range of sizes and styles. Mangrove jacks will start to fade away but in place we should start to see some tailor moving into the estuary after next week’s new moon and big tides that come with it. Tailor are a great lure target and when winding in should you feel a small bump and find all your gear missing that is a classic sign you have just been “tailored”. Small Halco surface poppers and Zipbaits skinny pop JNR’s are a couple of must have lures for tailor. As things start to cool down, queenfish will also be around and these are just as aggressive and will take to the skies once hooked. Fishing around the tides should produce the best bite windows and as the weather subsides into next week, now is a great time to start planning your next trip.

Dolphins steady in loss By Jon Lewis Building on combinations is the aim of Ray White Noosa Dolphins following their loss to Caloundra on the weekend, according to the coach Matt Buckland. “Our defence for 60 minutes was good, just need to work on maintaining that intensity for the full 80 minutes. Our attack though is a work in progress, but that is expected with so many new combinations this year,” Buckland said of the 30-13 loss. “We are seeing the steady improvement and that is very satisfying, so we are on track to getting back to where we want to be.” The Noosa forwards set a firm foundation with a very solid scrum, with hooker Ben Ashman a standout, not only in the set piece, but across the paddock. The Reserve grade put in a solid defensive effort to fend off a relentless Caloundra attack for the final 10 minutes to take victory 12-3 in a dour match. But it was the performance of the novice front row that coach Mark Winder was most impressed with. Rookie prop Taylor Ryan was a standout along with his more experience partner Buddah Dwyer supported by Flynn Enright.

Callum Phillips scored all 12 points with four penalty goals. The wet conditions and inability to retain possession when it counted were a let down for the previously undefeated Ray White Noosa women’s team, according to coach Damien Cogill. “Our defence was generally outstanding but giving away possession too many times was crucial, especially against a well drilled side like Caloundra,” Cogill said. “We lost a couple of players to yellow cards which didn’t help, but I was impressed with Franky Auckland who seamlessly moved from full back to fill in in the half back role.” Dillyn Blackburn and Tyla Te Moana were again outstanding, awarded three and two points respectively in the player of the match awards. They were closely followed by Gemma Ward with one point. The Ray White Dolphins are at home for the first time this Saturday against a tough Caboolture side with A grade kicking off at 3.30pm, reserve grade 2pm, womens 12.30pm and Colts at 11.15am. Check the Dolphins Facebook page for all details of the weekend festivities.

Work hard to improve your game TAKE THE TIP By Greg Lynch

No longer flying jets around the world, Chris Harrold is still comfortable in the cockpit. He’s pictured his with his wife Sue after a flight back from the US.

Watch of good luck Chris Harrold wears a very special watch on his left wrist. It was made for him by the German precision watchmaker Sinn, fashioned from a piece of titanium taken from the wing of the last Boeing 747 flown by Cathay Pacific. The watch – one of only 748 made - is a constant reminder to Chris of the 17 wonderful years he spent with the Hong Kong-based airline, piloting 747s around the world. “It’s a pretty special thing,” he said. And last week it served as something of a lucky charm for Harrold, who recorded an excellent 43 stableford points to win Noosa Spring’s Wednesday competition by two shots. The win confirmed his remarkable run of recent form, coming only three weeks after Harrold tallied 42 points to win a Saturday competition. Until he retired from his 42-year-long career as an airline pilot with Ansett and Cathay Pacific, Harrold hadn’t played golf, except for an occasional wild hit with his mates. But when he relocated to Noosa and joined Noosa Springs, he took some lessons with Peter Heiniger and Hamish Robertson and learned the fundamentals of the game. “Hamish changed a few things, starting with my grip,” Chris said. When his handicap was cut from 27 to 26 following his recent round of 42 points, Harrold playfully calculated that, if his rate of improvement continued, he’d be a scratch golfer about the same time he turned 100. More realistically, he’s just relishing playing twice a week with good friends, and doing everything he can to improve his game. He’s enjoying living on the 18th fairway of the Noosa Springs golf course, and looking forward to an upcoming fishing trip in North Queensland with his Sydney-based son. Experience helps Noosa’s Tooman Noosa’s Simon Tooman has experienced much in his golf career. 44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 29 April, 2022

Once a consistent performer on the pro tour, Tooman relinquished his professional status more than a decade ago and resumed an amateur career, winning his club championship and taking the 2018 Mt Coolum Open. Then, in late 2018, he felt his game was good enough to play for a living again, and he joined the Legends Tour. He’s regularly contended in the Over 50s events, but these past few weeks he’s filled in a lull on the Legends circuit by playing in proam events – against all comers – in the Riverina district of southern NSW. And he’s shown he still has the game to compete against the best. Playing in the first group of the day in last week’s Yenda Pro-Am, Tooman set the early pace with a round of two-under 46 on the club’s unique 12-hole course. The score held up throughout much of the afternoon and earned him a share of third alongside Aaron Townsend, 2019 champion Dale Williamson, Jayden Cripps and Andrew Campbell. The win was shared by Canberra’s Matthew Millar and another Sunshine Coast veteran Glenn Joyner, who each shot three-under 46s. The Legends Tour resumes on May 11 in Sydney. So close for Martin Ryley Martin, the Noosa Springs professional who hopes to bring some stability to his golf career by gaining playing privileges through this year’s PGA Q-School qualifying tournaments, missed out on the 36-hole cut at last week’s Western Australian PGA by a single stroke. The long-hitting Martin, who has no official playing status, made a rare appearance in the Kalgoorlie event. He shot 71 and 74 for a 36hole total of one-over 145 – one stroke short of joining the 60 golfers who made the weekend rounds. He will attempt to gain a start in this week’s Western Australian at Royal Fremantle through

early week pre-qualifying. Martin will take heart at the win in Kalgoorlie of Northern Rivers battler Jay MacKenzie. The 22-year-old, who often sleeps in his old troop-carrier van, carries a tattered bag with torn head covers and saved the cost of a caddie by dragging his own set of clubs, scored his first tour win and earned a twoyear exemption through his career-changing victory. Porter finishes strongly Peregian’s Cassie Porter saved her best for last when she completed the rain-shortened Australian Ladies Classic at Bonville on Sunday with a final round two-under-par 70. Her 54-hole total of four-over 220 – 72, 78, 70 – was good enough for 36th, and maintained the 19-year-old’s record of never having missed a cut in her short professional career. The tournament, won by England’s Meg MacLaren, was shortened to three rounds after heavy rain halted play on Friday – the scheduled second day of the event. One of the highlights was the remarkable showing of 18-year-old Caboolture amateur Justice Bosio, who shot rounds of 70, 72 and 68 to finish tied for sixth. Jane in good shape Noosa Springs’ Mally Jane is in fourth place, only one point from the leaders, after the first three rounds of this year’s Race To The Coast – a season-long competition sponsored by Sunshine Coast Burnett and District Women’s Golf. Jane picked up most of her points for being runner-up in the opening event at Nanango. Golfers competing in The Race To The Coast pick up points for competing in open day events at nine district clubs. Events have so far been decided at Nanango, Maleny and Beerwah, with the next open dDay scheduled for Cooroy on Tuesday 7 June. The final, to be contested by the top 50 points

Frustration usually develops when our expectations are not met and, clearly, that can happen when we play golf. A great way to manage frustration is to match our expectation level with the amount of practice and hard work that we put into our game. If you are putting in a low amount of practice and effort you cannot expect to achieve much, but if you have put in a high level of practice, you are entitled to expect greater things from your game. Being honest with yourself and setting your expectations at the same level as the amount of work you are putting into your game will definitely help ease the frustration and pressure and make each round a more enjoyable experience. Who knows? It may even help lower those scores just a little. Good luck and good golfing.

Easter endurance event By Erle Levey Perfect conditions greeted more than 300 riders at the annual Easter at Stirlings Crossing endurance event. It followed frantic efforts by the Stirlings Crossing Endurance Club members and HQ Plantations to get the courses ready after the recent flooding damaged so many of the tracks. “Entries were good for the three days,’’ endurance club president Kim Moir said, “with options to suit everyone.’ “The events were marked by wonderful weather, good vetting, and riders looking after their horses which resulted in fantastic completion rates. “Most of the tracks had been affected by the heavy rainfall which saw a lot of top soil and gravel washed away. “The riders obviously managed it very well and were riding with care.’’ Riders applauded the way the course was set, given the restrictions. They were appreciative of the way new sections were opened up to give a fresh feel to the rides. The 240km marathon attracted 11 starters, 120km mini marathon 18 riders, and the 60km mini marathon, six. The 80km events, held on three days, saw 119 riders, the 40km events on three days, 97, and the 20km on three days, 64. A 10km ride saw three riders and the 5km event, five. Kelsey Irvine was first across the line and overall winner of the 240km marathon, riding Karma. Kelsey has been a consistent performer at Stirlings Crossing, having taken out the 100km event last year on Karma as well as winning the 2019 State Championship in the 160.0km ride at Bowen. Karma, which took out best managed horse for this year’s marathon, was the last mare bred by Kelsey’s late grandfather Alwyn Torenbeek. Torenbeek grew up in the Rockhampton area and became a bush legend as drover, horse whisperer, endurance rider, bronc rider and author. Tracey Eastaughffe was second in the middleweight division, riding Moondarra Elton, while Pandora Bevan took out the lightweight division on My Fair Lady, from Alana Simpson riding Meea. In the junior division Ellie-Rose Bowden, on Silver Centurion, and Georgie Barber, on Concerto, tied for first, with Joey Long, riding Maverick, third.

Under 11 Dolphins showed bravery against a larger Caloundra side.

Under 10 Reds tackled well against Brothers.

Under 11s scrum held firm against the opposition.

Young Dolphins in action The Noosa Dolphins Juniors have kicked off the 2022 season with plenty of great rugby action. Here’s what happened in round one. Under 14’s Noosa Dolphins Under 14s defeated Brothers in the opening game of the season. It was a cracking game to kick off both teams’ season. There was quite a lot of back and forth for both teams as they defended and continually attacked for the ball. With Brothers consistently attacking our ruck, it opened up space out wide which ensured that Noosa put over two tries in the first half. The second half saw both teams come out strong and ready for victory but ultimately Noosa came out on top scoring another two tries to Brothers’ one. A great game was played by all under the guidance of our new coach Mick Phelan and several new players. Good luck all for the 2022 season! (Written by Under 14’s hooker Toby Eller.) Under 12’s A great performance from the Noosa Dolphins Under 12s, in a well-battled clash against Brothers, unfortunately falling short in the end, 19-17. After a quick try from the Brothers in the first half, the Dolphins hit back with Alex Bingham scoring their first try of the season. At half- time, the Dolphins led 10-7 with lots of momentum. In the second half, Brothers scored two tries with one conversion. Later in the second half, Brothers’ Jasper McRitchie charged over the line for a try. Brothers were ahead 19-10. With the game nearly over, the Noosa Dolphins U12s were in need of a try to grab a bonus point. Rising to the occasion, they executed one more try from Ash Eller, followed by Harrison Perkins converting the try to finish the match, 19-17. Players of the match went to Mack Cooper and Liam Stroem. Mack put in some outstanding runs and tackles, including some amazing set-ups in the backline. Liam pushed his way through tackles and was outstanding in defence. The Dolphin U12s will play the Saints in round three after next week’s bye. Better luck next time boys. (Written by under 12’s player Alex Bingham.) Under 11’s In windy conditions, the Under 11s came up against a larger Caloundra side keen to work the ball up the middle through the forwards. Noosa did well to repel Caloundra’s assaults but found it hard when in possession in the tough conditions to move the ball out wide where they like to play. The game was a forwards battle with two tries apiece. Luke McCready and Matthew Brook scored our tries. The forwards were brave against the bigger pack, and the scrum held firm.

The backs didn’t see much ball in the wet and windy conditions, but all tried hard, especially Harry and Will. Good work boys and thanks to the parents’ support again this season. Under 10’s The large Under 10s group hasve formed two teams for 2022, the Fins and Reds. Both began with a strong showing in round one despite wild on-field weather, the transition to a full length pitch and new team dynamics. The Fins kicked off first on a soaked and windy University pitch against a quality Caloundra side. The new dynamics created some disjointed moments, however, the team pulled together and played well overall. Great defensive efforts from Noosa saw the Fins remain on the line for several phases to keep Caloundra scoreless in the second half. Max C, Marcus, Cameron, Harry and Riley were given space for some big runs, while try scorers for the match included Cameron, Harry and Lincoln. In the other match, the Noosa Reds met up with a well-drilled Brothers outfit at Kawana in what was a tight contest in similarly trying conditions. The game saw our boys tackle well with

some stand-out attacking phases from Max, Ryker and Kai. As a whole, there’s work to do at breakdown and structure, but with only one sub, the team worked solidly together. Great defence from James, Raf, Tom and Oscar, who was Player of the Match. Thanks to Chris who also pulled out a solid refereeing performance. Under 9’s The Under 9 Dolphins fronted up to the Eumundi Dragons at Brothers. Tom got in early and set the scene for the Dolphins’ try-scoring bonanza. This one was followed by an amazing running ball steal to try by Ben with video footage to back up this feat of showmanship. While the Dolphins demonstrated a strong sense of white-line fever, they backed this up with their outstanding defence and a memorable tackle into touch by Eric in the second half. The team is showing good form and all the boys are stepping up when needed. The Dolphins under 9s proved much too powerful on the day and look forward to their next game against the Dragons. Under 8’s Wow, what a start to our first proper game of tackle.

The teams both took it to Eumundi and Caloundra on a wet and windy Saturday morning down at Kawana. After the initial disappointment of not playing on the big field, the kids got to business with some great running from Zach who left Harry with plenty of opportunities to take a few tries and Player Of the Match honours. They were followed closely behind with Henry doing the hard yards in tight, and Jenson Johnny and Harvey all displaying some great rugby. Hunter, Aston and Jack also put in fine efforts around the field. Game two for the Fins shot out of the blocks very quickly with Finn running in a few quick length-of-the-field tries. Some great running and passing saw Malik pick up the Player of the Match with the try of the day finished off by Stella. Meanwhile the workhorses of the team Teddy, Ari and Mason did the hard yards to keep the quick ball coming. Hit of the day went to Zach B with a mighty tackle on one of the Dragons. With some great pilfering, Hugo kept Eumundi backpedalling. It was a great start for the Under 8s all round.

Mick Reale and his much-loved Classic Malibu.

Little Mick says thanks By Phil Jarratt A misadventure in the surf can happen to anyone, anytime, but it’s probably more likely to happen when you’re 80 rather than 18. Little Mick Reale is undoubtedly Noosa’s best and keenest octogenarian surfer, a smiling presence in the water on the points or the beach breaks at Noosa West, waiting his turn and, like the rest of us, happy to pick up the leftovers on crowded days. But things weren’t going his way when he decided to have a paddle at the break in front of Access 11 on the West beach. Mick takes up the story: “There was a little wave out there, not too bad and not many people around, so I went out. But I’d forgotten my leg rope and, on top of that, I had sun lotion on my hand, which doesn’t make it easy to hang onto your board. “Anyway, I caught a couple of waves, then I’m paddling back out and a couple of bigger ones pop up out the back. The first one I make it over, the second one I’m paddling up the face and it throws me back over the falls, and somehow the board flies up in the air and lands right on my head.” A week later, almost ready to get back on the horse, so to speak, Mick shows me the wound, still dark and swollen through his thinning patch of silver hair. “I had no idea what happened but I was al-

most out of my depth in the water and could hardly stand up. I was very dizzy and didn’t really know where I was. I must have waded into the deep-water gutter and suddenly I’m going down and I didn’t have the power to swim,” he said. The frightening moment took Mick back to 1956, when as a 14-year-old he was travelling alone across the Indian Ocean on a passenger liner to join his family who had migrated from their home in Italy. But he wasn’t alone in his basic cabin which was crowded with other boys when a giant wave crashed through the open porthole, swamping them. While others panicked, Mick started bailing water. That evening at dinner the captain called him up to award his heroism. Mick had paid it forward, and the other day at Access 11 he called it back. “There was a couple nearby with one longboard between them. I think she was trying to teach him to surf. I put my hand up and said, ‘Please help me!’” Sydney’s surfing world was about to be turned upside down with the introduction of the modern Malibu surfboard when Mick’s family settled in Dee Why on the northern beaches, but Mick and his brother made their first forays into real waves on the rubber mats with grip handles known as surf-oplanes. There were some wild wipeouts but

Mick found solace in the surf from the trials of speaking no English and struggling at school. Well-known Noosa senior surfer Glenn Martin was an early schoolfriend who remembers helping his little mate out of a few schoolyard problems. Marto was already proficient on a surfboard and, after a few sessions borrowing a board from local champ Doug Andrew or his brother, so was Mick. He recalls: “Then I got a longboard of my own and rode that through the ‘60s, but on a surf trip to Terrigal my board got knocked off and I came home without one. “Then I got to know [surfboard manufacturer] Shane Stedman and he got me onto one of his seven foot pop-outs, a Shane Standard. I surfed on and off throughout my life in Sydney, although I worked six days a week and had time out for injuries from other sports.” Mick started out his working life running a mixed business at Dee Why with his brother, but when the competition from Woolworths got too tough, he went to work for them. Later, he got a job in the publishing room at the Fairfax Newspapers plant in Ultimo, stuffing inserts into the paper and loading them onto trucks. When the publishing room became mechanised, he befriended one of the insert machine experts, learnt the skills and became an operator for the next 20 years. It was an up and down life, but Mick never

lost his smile and never lost his love of surfing, so when he retired he moved north to Noosa to be with his children and grandchildren. And then, one day last week, he thought he was going under. “I was nearly unconscious but this couple got me onto the board and pushed me towards shore. We got to the beach and they helped me find the board down near the river mouth. “I managed to walk back but I was really groggy and don’t remember much about it, but what I do remember is that suddenly those people were gone and I hadn’t even thanked them or found out their names. All I know is that the bloke had a beard and the girl was wearing flippers. That’s not much help, is it?” Well, maybe. If you’re out there, bearded man and lady in flippers, know that an 80-year-old surfer thanks you from the bottom of his baggies. By the time you read this, Mick will be back in the line-up and loving it. His advice to silver surfers? “Never give up. It comes down to keeping reasonably fit, watching what you eat and drink. I try to look after myself. I used to coach soccer teams so I know what to do. I’ll have a couple of glasses of wine or a couple of beers, but that’s about it. “I love my coffee though, and I make a bloody good one.” Friday, 29 April, 2022 NOOSA TODAY 47

NOOSA AFC TIGER TALK 202103085735_1-SG12-21

Tigers honour our Anzacs By Julian Pitts Well, what a magnificent crowd at Noosa’s Rococo oval last Saturday to honour Anzac weekend and celebrate our annual sponsors’ day. Not a car space was available around the entire facility on a pretty blustery overcast day as arch enemy, the Maroochydore Roos, put on a clinic in the main game to totally out hunt and class the Tigers. In fact, from the very first bounce the Roos’ attack on the footy and tackling pressure around the ball was just first class. The fumbling Tigers were unable to get their game going as the perceived pressure element started to appear. And whilst there were times where the Noosa boys had momentum and looked to challenge, the Roos were quickly able to answer and silence any Noosa comeback in front of a boisterous pro-Noosa crowd. The Roos were much better than their counterparts with their kick ins snd subsequent transition from coast to coast terrific to watch. However, it’s not all doom and gloom for the Tigers who still sit at two wins/two losses after playing both last year’s grand finalists and, of course, Aspley who have dropped back from the VFL. Seb Rodgers was once again a standout for the Tigers with his aggressive attack on the ball and just seems to be loving the highly contested and close in footy the QAFL is at present. Whether in the middle of down back, Rodgers was impressive the entire day. Lachie Flagg played his best game for the Tigers and had an enthralling battle with champion spearhead Schollard, with Flagg just winning that with a controlled four quarter performance. Skipper Aaron Laskey’s second half was superb, willing himself into everything and trying to get his team over the line. Riley Buntain was again irrepressible down back, saving the day numerous times with coolness and spoiling what had to be spoiled. What a season he is having. Ruckman Connor McDonald was a true four-quarter performer collecting plenty of touches with his second and third efforts the entire day. Riley Odwyer battled manfully down back also while vice captain Tyler Stack deserves mention also for his efforts, particually through the middle of the match. Aaron Wilson’s work rate was on show once again while recruit Ethan Johnston was busy and dangerous around goals, booting three for the day.

Kai Thompson races to the finish line.

Kai Thompson on the podium.

A salute to our top youth At the completion of the state and Australian championships, we always take the time to reflect on what has been, and what could have been. This year was no different. For many a long season the first aid results were given little or no attention but now all that has changed and rightly so. Now we always ask, how did the first aid team perform? Not only do we watch the performance of such as Noosa coach Lenore Grice, but also others whose names are coming into prominence, not for just winning a medal, but because of their repeated performance over several seasons . One such a member is Noosa’s young competitor Joey Glassock. Joey’s category is u/19, but such is his ability and success that he now jumps up to compete in the open division. Joey tells us with a laugh, “My career started when as a six-month-old baby, my parents sat me in the patrol arena at Coolum, while they performed their patrol duties. It was in the 2009/10 season that the family settled in Noosa and joined the local club.” Joey’s first season 2010/2011 saw him competing as a nipper. Then in 2018 he completed his SRC (surf rescue certificate) and in doing so performed his first patrol, Christmas Day of that year. The season 2019/20 saw Joey compete for the first time as a member of the Noosa first aid team, and a career which was about to become very successful was under way. “In my first year as a u/15 competitor, I won a silver medal at branch which qualified me for state where I won gold. This qualified me for the national tTitles where I won silver.” The young man was definitely on his way. Last season he won a bronze at branch, a silver at the state, both in the u/17s and, going up, a division, he won bronze in the u/19s at the nationals. At this time he also took an interest in surf boat rowing, by competing for the Noosa Roosters. By shifting from camp to camp, he maintained his first aid place, winning another bronze in the u/17s. This season saw him continue in the boat, a program which had him training five times a week, twice in the boat and three times in the gym.

Joey and Jessie with Lenore Grice at the Australian Surf Life Saving Championships. His commitment saw him maintain his first aid schedule, which required three sessions a week. This year was going to be different as he was competing with a new partner, Jessie Lloyd Stewart. They were automatically qualified for the state u/19s which were held at Bargara. On the first day the opens were held and Joey and Jessie won the silver. With the Covid restrictions at the Aussies for the 2022 season, the competition was harder with the use of mannequins and no live scenarios. Joey and Jessie missed a medal finishing fourth in the Australian Open, but performed well in the u/19 to come home with the silver medal. Last week we were informed that he recieved his school, St Teresa’s Catholic College, Spirit of Anzac Award. This came about as a result of the school’s leadership group recognising the traits of mateship, courage integ-

rity, selflessness and honesty displayed by this young man in his everyday life amongst his mates as a student of the college. At last, the first aid teams, a very vital aspect of our core business surf life saving, are getting the respect and attention they justly deserve. With our beaches experiencing a massive increase in visitation, the importance of this team cannot be emphasised enough. Thus, the outstanding ongoing career of junior lifesaver Joey Glassock should be acknowledged. Away from the core business of the sometimes dangerous rescue work and the first aid our happy and relaxed beach competitors are safely going through their beach events and such an event is the beach flags. This event, which is one of our old traditions, is played by the contestants laying on their stomach, their arms flat on the sand with their fingers of each hand crossing over the other. The chin is then laid on top of the hands, and when the starter’s gun is fired, they raise up, turn around and sprint for some 40 or so metres, and race to grab a small flag that stands upright in the sand. If there are six competitors in a heat there will only be five flags. The competitor who fails to grab a flag is out of the contest. This will continue until there are only two competitors and one flag. This is an event that requires incredibly fast reflexes and the ability to run a short but very fast sprint. Strange as it may seem, this is one of the basic requirements for a lifesaver, to be extremely fit and have a fast reaction. Like all events at the titles there will, now and then, be a competitor who, season after season, will be one of the top three placegetters in state and national titles. His name will be repeated again and again and despite the event, that is considered by a small group to be of novelty rating, he will become well known amongst the competitors from interstate. At present time, there has arisen one such athlete. His club is Noosa Heads and his name is Kai Thompson. This quite unassuming young man first came into prominence when, in 2017 at age 13, he won two gold medals at the state titles, in beach sprint and the event that was to become his career’s main goal, the beach flags.

That year at the Aussies he finished fourth in the sprint, but won his first national medal, a bronze in the flags. This he achieved while, for the first time, competing for his state. Then in 2018, competing in the u/15, he achieved the double by winning both the sprint and the flags at the state titles. Then he achieved what was considered virtually impossible, again winning the double, gold in the sprint and the flags at the Australian titles. Despite once again being picked in the branch and state teams, he did not compete in 2019/20 as he was with his parents, on board a yacht, sailing round Australia. However, in 2021 in the u/19s it was back in business as usual, winning both the sprint and gold at the state titles. At the Aussies he finished fourth in the sprint but winning the silver in the flags. For the 2022 season the states were cancelled but the Aussies went ahead and he finished sixth in the sprint. But yet again, in his main event the flags, he won the gold. To continually achieve such results at state and national level, one has to maintain, through the many seasons, a high level of fitness and instant reaction. Many have tried but few, such as our Kai Thompson have succeeded. To all involved with this outstanding young athlete a big well done. To have two such outstanding and dedicated young lifesavers as Joey Glassock and Kai Thompson in our community is indeed very gratifying. We wish them both the very best in the years ahead. Seahorse Nippers Once again it is that time of the season when the dedicated volunteers of the Noosa Seahorse Nippers rally to the cause of helping those in need. This coming Saturday at 8am at the Noosa Surf club and on Noosa’s Main Beach, the fun and laughter will continue as it has been doing now for several years. For those wishing to volunteer their time, please assemble at 7.30am and remember the bus service from the Lions Park to the beach will again be available for those with transport problems, starting at 6.30am-7. Once again, a very big thank you to the Noosa Shire Council for their support regarding the bus service. Friday, 29 April, 2022 NOOSA TODAY 49

Joey Cabell in his prime.

Joey Cabell defies odds The news a few weeks back that the legendary Hawaiian-born Joey Cabell had suffered a cardiac arrest in an Aspen restaurant, and had been given a one per cent chance of survival by his doctors, came as a huge shock. Within a day the story came out from wife Yana, via Cabell friend and Bondi legend John Red Ted Sullivan: “It happened at Clarke’s Restaurant in Aspen, which happens to be across the road from the fire department, and they did CPR and put the paddles on to revive him. He has three broken ribs from all the work they had to do on him and he was gone for quite a while. The doctor in ICU at Glenwood Springs Vale Hospital said that the chance of him surviving was less than one per cent.” But Cabell has always been a larger than life figure, so the follow-up news a few days later, that he was off life support and recovering well, having been fitted with a combination pacemaker/defibrillator, was a better fit. Well of course the 84-year-old was going to recover – he is Cabell after all. The surfer/skier/restaurateur/bon vivant/ adventurer was a boyhood hero of mine, even when he was accused of unsportsmanlike behaviour after finishing third behind Midget Farrelly at the first world surfing championships at Manly in 1964. Sure, Joey dropped in on the other finalists almost every wave in the final, but closer examination of the whole event showed that in those days, before interference was really a thing, everyone dropped in. Joey just did it better. The thing is, Cabell could so easily have been surfing’s first world champion – he comprehensively out-surfed Midget for the first 50 minutes of the hour-long final but then Midget woke up and scored a buzzer-beater to tighten things up. Joey probably still had the points to win but head judge Phil Edwards, not a noted Cabell fan, instructed his judges to enforce the interference rule to its harshest extent. “I didn’t even know there was an interference rule,” rookie judge the late Joe Larkin once told me. Cabell finished third behind Midget and Mike Doyle. This is ancient history, of course, but the question is, would Joey Cabell have had a better life if he’d been crowned world champion? My answer is, I don’t think that’s possible. His surfing was always fast and elegant, often in a parallel stance like a skier, his arms wide and palms splayed for balance in critical sections. A decade before I christened Mark Richards the wounded seagull for his low-centre-of-gravity wingspan turns, someone else, possibly John Witzig, had christened Joey the gazelle. It was a perfect fit. Cabell swooped all over the face of large waves, looking like the fastest surfer alive. And 50 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 29 April, 2022

Joey (second from left, next to Duke) on the Kahanamoku Surf Team. he kept winning contests, including the Peru International and the Makaha International. But the truth was that Cabell had another life going even before he came to Australia in 1964. In 1962, aged just 24, he became a founding partner in a restaurant called The Charthouse in the ski resort of Aspen, Colorado. After losing to Midget in Manly he forsook the surf and spent two years in Aspen, skiing and developing a Charthouse chain, with additional restaurants in Redondo Beach and Newport in California and at home in Honolulu. Cabell was the key man in creating a Charthouse look and feel that instantly put you in paradise the moment you walked in the door, and let’s face it, looking out over Ala Moana yacht harbour from the Honolulu place, you more or less were. Joey’s style and sensibilities were a large part of the Charthouse success story, but a decade in he cut and run, only holding onto the Hawaiian property, which has since had its ups and downs, but is renewed and going strong today. Much like its founder. As part of the media contingent covering the North Shore pro surfing contests through the late 1970s and early ‘80s, I ate regularly at the Ala Moana Charthouse and got to know genial Joey a bit, but it had been a long time between drinks when I phoned him in 1999 and invited him to Noosa to participate in a recreation of the 1964 world title final at our surf festival. Joey struck a hard bargain – he didn’t succeed in the restaurant game by being an easy touch – but I got him here, along with the four other living finalists. I tried to get him to drop in on everyone again, but he was the perfect gentleman

April dreamy lineup. throughout his stay, in and out of the surf, as well as the life of the party. The last time I saw Cabell, along with wife Yana, was at the premiere of Jack McCoy’s Blue Horizon movie at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Waikiki in 2013. The place was alive that night, and we shared some laughs and memories with so many of the greats of Hawaiian surfing. No one was more charming, suave and effervescent than my boyhood hero at 75. Joey is now back in Hawaii and recovering well. FOOTNOTE: As we bid goodbye to April do we also say sayonara to this incredible run of swell we’ve enjoyed right through autumn so far? I hope not, but just in case it all goes to hell in a hay cart, allow me to share a little April love via the great images of local lens’ ladies Cindy Grzesiak (@cinderpixx_surf) and Fenna de King (fennadeking.com).

living, sparkling pool and views throughout whole day. These stretch from the ocean and Mt Coolum, over Lake Weyba to the hinterland and around to the Noosa River system in the north. There are high ceilings, polished blackbutt flooring, picture window displays the views, and a substantial terrace. There are stairs down to the pool, a grassy terrace and private garden. Nic reports a really steady response to the property, mainly from interstate and Brisbane as it provides a nice getaway place for them. At 2pm on Saturday, Nic and colleague Eric Seetoo will take a two-bedroom, twobathroom apartment at 8/2 Pandanus St, Noosa Heads, to the market. Across the road from Little Cove Beach, this is a sophisticated renovation by Frank Macchia Design with open-spaced dining and living area, cathedral-height ceilings and its own pool. Banks of glass sliders open out to the wide, east-side entertaining terrace, with white sensor awning and integrated outdoor kitchen. The pool takes pride of place, between the two terraces, with the prime corner position and northerly panorama.

“There have been really solid attendances at open homes, as well as private inspections,’’ Nic said. “Not many become available to such a high standard in this location.’’ FAMILY-FRIENDLY PRECINCT A bright and welcoming layout with an open-plan design, the four-bedroom, twobathroom house with pool at 13 Aspera Pl, Noosaville, goes to auction on Friday, May 6, at 4pm. Backing onto wetlands and with a nature reserve across the road, the property is part of a friendly neighbourhood - a mix of families and retirees. Nathan Howie of Noosa Estate Agents said it was a secret spot - on a 1309sq m block with wide streets and nature strips. “It’s a good house,’’ Nathan said, “and is getting good interest - Brisbane and local. “They are attracted by the size of the block and the quietness.’’ The house features high ceilings, porcelain tiles and a neutral colour scheme throughout. It is fitted with ducted airconditioning, has a media room and openair garden terrace. A large, covered outdoor entertaining area overlooks the pool, and there is side access for the caravan or boat.

A four-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-car house with pool at 14 The Quarterdeck, Noosa Heads, goes to auction Saturday, April 30, at 9am. 276583 HEY GOOD-LOOKING There has been a lot of inquiry on the fourbedroom, three-bathroom beachside duplex apartment at 2/22 Avocet Pde, Peregian Beach, ahead of Saturday’s auction at 1pm. With three-car parking and it’s own pool, the views are outstanding, Tom Offermann Real Estate’s Mal Cox said, who is marketing the property in conjunction with Tracy Russell. “It is simply three to five minutes walk to the beach.’’ With classic beach house design attributes, such as a curved roof line, raked ceilings, corrugated facade, breeze blocks and timber floors, it features a massive timber terrace which wraps around two sides. “There has been a lot of good inquiry and repeat inspections,’’ Mal said, “... more local but certainly some from interstate. “These have included one of the first to own the apartment, who are back and looking seriously. “The locals are looking at improving their position. “There are really good people around you who love that Avocet Parade area.’’ EAGLE’S NEST Imagine a beach-style residence with an osprey’s view of Noosa Main Beach, across Laguna Bay, beyond to the Coloured Sands. That’s what’s on offer at 20 Mainwaring Rise, Noosa Heads, where Julie Bengtsson of Tom Offermann Real Estate will take the three-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-car apartment to auction at 3pm on Friday, May 6.

“Inquiry has been quite strong,’’ Julie said. “There’s a lot of interstate, especially from those who have stayed at the complex year after year.’’ Taking advantage of the idyllic northfacing aspect, this residence is in a private enclave of 23 and the five terraces provide mesmerising views of the native forest surrounds. BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED Positioned at the end of a cul-de-sac position in the Noosa Waters estate is a charming, single-level home offering separate living. The four-bedroom, three-bathroom house on 709sq m at 11 Mizzen Ct, Noosaville, is set for auction at 12pm on Saturday, May 7. Bettina Mertel at Laguna Real Estate said early interest was from professional people and empty nesters. “It’s a lovely, quiet street and the property is beautifully presented,’’ Bertina said. It is designed with a separate selfcontained granny flat at the front with its own separate access and courtyard. The focal point of the home is the chef’s kitchen overlooking the dining, living and outdoor entertaining area all boasting high ceilings. Stacker doors open right up to allow easy flow between the indoor/outdoor entertaining areas. Freshly painted throughout, this neat and charming home has high ceilings, floating floors, white venetian blinds, ceiling fans, split system air-conditioning in all bedrooms and living.

This Gabriel Poole masterpiece has stood the test of time. Located along a high ridge in Parkedge Road connecting to Enterprise Street in Sunshine Beach, this is a highly sought after address. Built initially as a holiday house, the client’s brief was for a quadropod built as high as possible with large glass walls to maximize the view south. Because the prevailing weather was from the south east, no decking was to be incorporated to the south.

ON THE COVER

WATERFRONT HOME BOASTING flourishes of Hamptons’ inspiration, whispers of cool Palm Springs, and etched with the unimpeachable credentials of Gmelli Design, it appears to be a private albeit lush oasis from the street. Looking from the waterway however, at its prized position in the dress circle, the substantial residence teases with its sense of grandeur and contemporary brilliance. The generous yet serene sculpted form, fringed by frangipanis defines the wide streetscape. Spectacular pavers which appear to float, form the pathway and are dotted with pots of established olive trees, while epitomising the heart and soul of an idyllic summer escape is a luminescent pool, which morphs into a water feature at the entry. Bespoke doors disappear to divulge the pinnacle of design excellence. It ensures every space benefits from visions of water and blurs the lines between indoors and out. Admire endless European oak floors in a herringbone pattern and designer rugs throughout the massive open plan formal, informal and dining spaces with a predominantly blue and white aesthetic, wall sconces, pendants and statement chandeliers, such as one with the moniker of Ralph Lauren, also an abundance of fine cabinetry, three fireplaces framed with tactile dry alpine stacked stone, while beyond the tall French doors, is a custom daybed. It spells romance. Entertaining options are numerous when indoors extends to the super-size undercover terraces with a built-in barbeque station, also a cubby house for the kids. Claiming the spotlight however, on the larger-than-average prestigious site, is understandably the northerly orientated deep waterfrontage with grass verge, where clear waters gently lap the revetment wall, also the long jetty, recommended for sunset drinks. Worth noting, is boating enthusiasts have access to the Noosa River via a private residents-only lock and weir system. Next level lavish is the custom kitchen by Wyer + Craw, with every accoutrement on the wish-list of a passionate cook – even a professional. It comprises two island benches/breakfast bar, porcelain-topped shaker-style profile cabinetry with glass panels, Carrara marble splash backs and multiple high-end appliances, also a serious butlers’ pantry and a wine cellar. Interestingly there is not a plain wall in the house, and it all works. Even the powder room is embraced as an opportunity to showcase beautifully crafted wainscoting spliced with textural, grass cloth wallpaper. The stunning west wing has two masterstyle suites. Bathrooms are tiled with imported gold inlay Carrara marble tiles. One with access to the northerly terraces has an outdoor stone bath and rain shower also a retreat/quiet space. It opens to the decadent pool area surrounding the pool house. With its pearl glass mosaic tiles, potted olive trees ostensibly floating, sinkinto chairs, a bar and custom cabinetry ’hiding’ the television and sound system, this is living in the lap of fabulosity – islandstyle, as featured in glossy magazines for all to envy! Upstairs with its pitched roof, also keeps on giving. The library features a 18 NOOSA TODAY

custom upholstered daybed which hugs a window overlooking the water. An enormous kids’ domain has a media room, enormous bunk room and a marble bathroom, which is shared by a guest bedroom, with terrace overlooking the wide waterways. Looking for the ultimate master suite with views over two canals out to pretty Seahorse Bridge from the terrace, a walk-in robe over six metres long with island cabinetry, a make-up room, dresser, marble bathroom with free-standing tub, plus a shoe room? This is a fashionista’s dream come true. “Noosa Waters is known nationally as one of Australia’s premier housing precincts because of its high calibre residences, award-winning designs, and deep-water frontages,” extols eponymous principal of Tom Offermann Real Estate and agent Nic Hunter. “Pride of ownership is evident throughout the estate with manicured gardens, streetscapes and parks, tantamount to a prevailing overtone of community, family safety and security”.
