Curlewis set for rezoning By Justin Flynn Nearly 150 hectares of farmland at Curlewis could be rezoned for residential development. The proposed planning scheme amendment, which is made up of 20 individual titles, will go on public display for feedback with consultants acting for several of the landowners lodging applications for rezoning. The City of Greater Geelong’s 2020 Settlement Strategy and the Victorian government’s Bellarine Peninsula Distinctive Areas and Landscape program recognise the land as appropriate for urban growth. The land, in the Jetty Road Urban Growth Area stage two, is split into two precincts north and south of the Bellarine Rail Trail within the Drysdale Clifton Springs settlement boundary (which includes Curlewis).

Stage two is intended to deliver a similar, or greater, number of homes as Jetty Road stage one, which saw more than 1700 house lots developed. It is proposed to feature a mix of housing types, developer contributions to deliver social and/or affordable housing, parks and shared paths, council said. Bus links, restoration of the designated waterway and a continuation of the foreshore reserve established in Jetty Road stage one would also feature. Drysdale Clifton Springs Curlewis Community Association president Lynne Sutton said it expects to work closely with council on the matter. “The DCSCA looks forward to working closely with the Geelong city council, developers and the community in the planning of this next

phase of Jetty Road,” Ms Sutton said. “With close consultation by all parties, we can ensure that this phase is harmonious, respectful, and sustainable. Together we can safeguard our towns rural history and coastal attributes preserving them for future generations. “As was clearly demonstrated in the recent election, the community feels strongly about upholding our environment that we love and live within. “We at DCSCA highly encourage the community to view these plans and actively join us in providing a strong voice at the table.” Bellarine ward councillor Jim Mason said the city has asked the minister for planning to authorise the preparation and exhibition of Amendment C387ggee. “Affected residents will be notified when the proposed amendment goes public,” he said. “I

encourage community members to take the time to read over the proposed amendment in the second half of the year and have their say.” The city is investigating whether stage two should include any new shared infrastructure that wasn’t identified in the stage one developer contributions plan. Council said it is intended that developers will deliver the duplication of Tivoli Drive and Greenvale Drive to a boulevard-style road by 2025-26 as planned in the 2008 Jetty Road Urban Growth Plan. Landholders who may be affected by the proposed rezoning have been engaged on the proposed Amendment C387ggee. T he public exhibition process will involve a mail out to affected and nearby landowners and residents, and notices in local media, council said.

United ready for final showdown The reality that he’s likely to be playing in an A-League grand final is only starting to settle in for Western United star Dylan Pierias. Having dreamt about this moment for a number of years, Pierias and his United teammates will play in the final game of the year for the first time on Saturday night against Melbourne City. For a club that’s just three years old, it’s the biggest moment in its history. “There’s a really good vibe at the club,” Pierias said. “It’s really exciting and we’re really happy

to be able to play in a grand final.” United has spoken about big dreams since the moment they got their licence. Coach John Aloisi in his first year at the club, continued that focus. It was something Pierias said the whole playing group had brought into. “Half way through the season we were on top of the ladder, and you start thinking that maybe we could do something special,“ he said. “There’s always talk about it, but it’s about the ability to do it. It’s only just started to sink in now. I didn’t believe it for the first couple of

days.” United won through to the decider in stunning fashion. After trailing Melbourne Victory 1-0 after game one of the semi finals, United dominated the second half of game two, winning 4-1 and claiming an overall 4-2 win. “The club was up against it,” Pierias said. “Melbourne Victory were favourites to win it as they had 15 games undefeated. “Going into the second leg 1-0 down, made it more special to put in a performance like that. It was one of the best moments of my career.”

For United, grand final week hasn’t been too different from a normal week. For Pierais, who lives in Caroline Springs and has grown up in Melbourne’s west, it’s exciting to see the west, Geelong and the Ballarat region get behind them. “I think it’s really important for the club to be in a grand final,” he said. “To win it would be even more special.“ The grand final is at AMMI Park on Saturday night at 7.30pm. ■ Fans show their support: Page 5

Bellarine Landcare’s Kate Simpson and Kate Lockhart have been instrumental in bring Journey on Wadawurrung Country to the Bellarine.

Connecting to Wadawurrung culture A new exhibition that explores the lives and stories of the Wadawurrung people is hoped to educate and immerse people of the region into a culture that has survived and thrived for thousands of years. The exhibition – ‘Journey on Wadawurrung Country’ – documents the stories of the Wadawurrung people, land, community and culture through audio recordings, thoughtfully curated portrait photographs, filming of locations on country and photography of cultural landmarks and areas of significance. Photographer and art director Ferne Millen has worked closely with proud Wadawurrung woman Corrina Eccles to bring the exhibition to the Potato Shed in Drysdale. A similar pilot project was held in Geelong in 2021. “It’s been a big job,” Ferne said. “The difference

is it’s really fitted into a pace a fifth of the size and it’s really reaching out to community. “As human beings we can get caught up in the labelling of things but we can walk towards reconcilliation through growth and understanding.” Ferne hopes school students in particular will learn from the exhibition. “We often fear what we don’t know,” she says. “It enlightens people. Putting a light in the dark, giving them connection, making them feel so they can connect to the people in the stories and relate to the sounds of country and that we can all share similar things.” Bellarine Landcare president Kate Lockhart and project manager Kate Simpson went to the pilot project in Geelong and knew they had to try and get it to the Bellarine.

Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world and Torquay Lions Club is doing its bit to reduce the statistics. The club has organised the sought-after Lions Skin Check and Awareness Mobile Unit to be in Torquay during the first week of July. The unit will offer free skin checks and appointments must be made. “The incorporated charity, the Lions V Districts Cancer Foundation, has put the unit on the road, following excellent financial support from Lions clubs and generous public and private supporters,” Torquay Lions president Neil Roche said. “The van will provide a free skin screening service to local people, and will be operated by fully trained, certificated and professionally supervised volunteers. “The unit will be a valuable resource for local people to access not only the skin check, but valuable and timely information about skin care and self-checking techniques.” The van will be operating on Friday, July 1 and Saturday, July 2 at Wurdi Baierr Stadium, Torquay. Following the skin check, visitors will be issued with a referral to their GP if there are any suspect spots or lesions. The unit is not a medical clinic, so diagnosis or treatment requirements are not discussed – it simply provides the skin check and alerts the visitor to skin lesions that require further checking and attention. The airconditioned van has three fully equipped screening rooms and an entry foyer, as well as a disabled lift and entry at the rear. To book a free screening, local and surrounding residents should contact the Lions Club appointment manager on 0460-968 848. Bookings open on June 6.

Centre now biggest in Australia Geelong’s newly refurbished Lifeline call centre is now the largest in Australia. The centre, which was officially opened on May 26, now has 13 seats, more than doubling its previous capacity of six. Lifeline Geelong and South West Victoria general manager Jason Doherty said the refurbishment of the existing centre will provide better facilities for Lifeline’s crisis supporters to be there for people in times of need.

“Lifeline has increased the number of Geelong based crisis supporters – the people who answer calls to 13 11 14 – from eight to 74,” he said. “Of the 74, 38 are day-shift volunteers and 36 are part-paid overnight crisis supported.” Mr Doherty said calls to 13 11 14 are up 25 per cent over the past two years. Ian Palmer has been a volunteer crisis supporter for three years and started in 2020 at

the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. “While challenging at times, it is very rewarding to be there for people in the local community in their time of crisis – to listen without judgement, acknowledge their pain, and to offer hope,” he said. “Sadly, many people who experience mental ill health continue to be misunderstood. Many people are struggling with problems such as relationship breakdowns, cost of living pressures, the impacts of

Promoting Geelong to the universe Amber Dew is a young woman doing great things. The 26-year-old Geelong resident has made it to the final 25 in the state finals of the Miss Universe Australia competition. On Sunday, Amber will attempt to make it to the national finals and then, if successful, onto the Miss Universe titles. Many preconceptions exist about Miss Universe, but Amber said the main focus is on charity work and building self-confidence and other life skills. Amber is a Bully Zero Australia ambassador, raises funds for ToyBox Australia, which supports Camp Quality, and is the founder of a novelty sock company (Socks 4 Difference) that raises money for kids in the Philippines where all proceeds go to charity. “It’s a good opportunity to challenge ourselves and raise money for much needed funds,” she said. “We have raised over $272,000 so far and it will keep growing because we are just getting started.” Amber is passionate about Bully Zero and often visits schools in the area to talk to students about it. “I speak at schools and attend workshops to educate students and parents to cope with all sorts of bullying,” she said. “It’s about spreading awareness about the issue itself and making people understand that words matter and what you say impacts another person. “It’s about being kind to one another. Cyber bullying is a big issue that we experience nowadays. It affects adults as well.” Amber is the only contestant from the Geelong area and any preconceptions about the women being ultra competitive were eased as soon as she met everybody. “Before I entered I was a little bit nervous, but as soon as I met all the girls on the first night, all my fears were taken away,” she said. “We’ve become such close friends. Everyone is so like minded. “We understand that not everyone can move forward. We’re already supporting each other, we all message each other, help each other and give advice.”

Amber works on land development for Maax Global and has been in charge of sites at Dalgona at Duneed (Mount Duneed) and Voltaire Armstrong Creek. Amber also hopes to spread the message that Geelong is a great place to live and visit.

Barwon Heads Road upgrade progressing Bridge beams weight 56 tonnes have been lifted into place to form a four-lane bridge as part of the Barwon Heads Road upgrade. Transport Infrastructure Minister Jacinta Allan and South Barwon MP Darren Cheeseman visited the upgrade site this week to see how works are progressing. The nine 30-metre long bridge beams were installed at Waurn Ponds as a part of the staged construction of the new bridge that will replace the existing two-lane bridge over Waurn Ponds Creek. Seven more beams will be installed later in the year to complete the new bridge and provide two lanes in each direction to support the increased traffic flow on Barwon Heads Road – which is anticipated to reach 44,000 daily users by 2031. “It’s great to see works progressing on the Barwon Heads Road Upgrade – which will benefit the local community with slashed travel times and improved safety,” Ms Allan said. The project will result in four kilometres of new lanes between Settlement Road and Reserve Road, the removal a level crossing at Marshall, and upgraded intersections at Settlement Road and Breakwater Road. While works continue, the northbound lane on Barwon Heads Road between Breakwater and Settlement roads will be closed from Friday, May 27 until Friday, June 17. A detour will be in place via Settlement Road and Breakwater Road. The Breakwater Road intersection will be closed from Friday, June 17 to Monday, July 11. The upgrade is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.

Station work completed The Waurn Ponds train station upgrade will be officially completed on Sunday, May 29. The upgrade on the Geelong line will enable 20 peak and shoulder peak services to be extended to and from Waurn Ponds station each week, with two extended services in the morning and two in the evening on weekdays. As a new timetable comes into effect, nine-car VLocity trains will also be introduced on three Wyndham Vale services to help boost capacity. Finishing touches on the station were completed earlier this month while coaches replaced trains on sections of the Geelong and Warrnambool lines. The new walking and cycling path at the upgraded Waurn Ponds station to extend the existing path on Baanip Boulevard will also be completed, giving passengers access to the station from the south side for the first time.

“We’re delivering for passengers on the Geelong Line, completing projects like the Waurn Ponds Station upgrade to provide better and more reliable services to growing communities in the region,” Transport Infrastructure Minister Jacinta Allan said. “This upgrade will enable more trains in the peak – which is when they’re needed most – and get passengers where they need to go.” A community day will be held at Waurn Ponds Station to celebrate the completion of the project on Sunday, May 29, from 10am to 1pm. Early works will also get under way this week on the South Geelong to Waurn Ponds Duplication, to prepare the rail corridor for about eight kilometres of track duplication. Work crews will remove vegetation and start earthworks to allow for the relocation and upgrade of Barwon Water pipes currently located where new track will be laid.

Aust Day conversation initiated The City of Greater Geelong will formally initiate a conversation about January 26, which is celebrated as Australia Day, to understand, respect and acknowledge the experiences of First Nations people and the wider community. The Kilangitj Aboriginal Advisory Committee provides advice to council on First Nations matters and requested that council consider engaging with First Nations People and the broader community about January 26. Aboriginal Affairs portfolio chair, councillor Jim Mason, said the engagement is a long time

coming for Greater Geelong’s First Nations community, which is the largest in Victoria. “Let’s all embark upon a respectful, safe and inclusive conversation over the next six months about January 26 and how Australia Day is celebrated,” Cr Mason said. “The truth can be difficult to hear, but through listening to our First Nations People and broader community, and thinking deeply together, I hope we can come to some meaningful conclusions that will assist us in our Reconciliation journey.”

The Australian government has gazetted January 26 as national holiday since 1994, and the community engagement by the City of Greater Geelong Council does not propose to change the date. Recommendations from the engagement will be presented back to council and the community to guide the city’s future approach to activities and commemorations held on January 26. The Kilangitj Aboriginal Advisory Committee recommended engagement for

at least six months to allow for mature and deliberative discussions on this complex and emotive topic. The conversation will begin with face-to-face and online forums with First Nations People. Engagement with the broader community is proposed to begin later this year and will include an online survey, the opportunity to provide a written submission, feedback via social media and interactive community forums.

High hopes for United Greater Geelong-based Western United supporters have been dreaming of green and black this week. Western United will meet Melbourne City in the A-League grand final at AAMI Park on Saturday night after beating Melbourne Victory 4-2 over two legs in the semi-finals. It is only United’s third season in the competition. Western United has played home games at GMHBA Stadium in its three seasons while its Tarneit home base is being built. St Albans Park youngster John Coumans, 11, was supposed to be on school camp this week, but decided to stay home, fearing he would miss out on attending the game. “He was supposed to go on camp but there’s been a lot of COVID at school and he was worried about getting it and having to be in isolation and not being able to attend the grand final,” mum Rachael said. “He made the decision to lay low this week. He was disappointed but we’ve followed Western since the beginning.”

Rachael’s three boys, John, Phillip and Aiden love the atmosphere that The Western Service Crew creates and know all the songs and chants and are more than happy to sit right in the middle of the active supporters group. “They are absolutely stoked,” she said. “We were shocked that we won on Saturday but the result was magnificent. We all agreed it was the best game we have been to.” The boys all play football at Breakwater Eagles and have been welcomed into the green and black family. “We went to Tassie for the two games they had down there,” Rachael said. “The players have just been so lovely. In fact the whole club has been amazing “Extremely hardcore” supporter Tony Gilson from Corio and his 15-year-old daughter Tash are pumped for the game. “It’s my daughter’s and my number one passion,” he said. “I’m very confident that if we play with the same pride and passion we showed against Victory, we will win.”

Many talents. One VCE.

These artists’ works were selected through an expression of interest process promoted by Geelong Arts Centre in 2021. “The Geelong Arts Centre Little Malop Street Redevelopment has provided us with

an incredible opportunity to connect with local First Nations artists and showcase their work within the spaces of this important project for Geelong,” Geelong Arts Centre chief executive Joel McGuinness said. “We are deeply honoured to include their works in such an important building for the Geelong region and we can’t wait to show you the completed works, once installed, later in the year.”

Canine comfort in grief Meet Womble, Australia’s first funeral home comfort dog. Womble has already begun his journey to bring much-needed comfort to the grieving families that Kings Funerals support across the Geelong, Bellarine Peninsula, Surf Coast and Golden Plains regions in Victoria. Comfort dogs are increasingly employed by funeral homes in the USA to console bereaved families suffering through the loss of a loved one, while comfort dogs have also been put to great use at aged care facilities and hospitals internationally. Inspired by the unique service comfort dogs provide, the Kings Funerals family spent two years searching for their perfect comfort dog, while researching best practices from around the world. They eventually found Womble in 2019, with the assistance of a local charity. First trained as a seeing eye dog, Womble didn’t meet the high standard of sight required, and was reclassified as a comfort dog. “At Kings Funerals we understand the comfort a trained companion pet can provide

to people experiencing grief and loss,” Kings Funeral general manager Beth King said. “People love Womble, he’s got a really gentle, sweet, calm nature. If he senses that people would welcome it, he comes close to them, he might put his nose on their leg or just sit close for pats and cuddles.” Womble lives with Kings’ staff member Jo and her family and is focused on his purpose to help the community. Once Womble’s work vest is on, he knows what to do. Attuned to his environment, he has the ability to read people’s emotional state and approach those looking for comfort. Roxanne Neylon recently experienced Womble’s comfort dog service for her father’s funeral at Kings’ Geelong venue. “Funerals can sometimes feel cold, but it broke the ice, having a dog there,” she said. “We had a few small children, and if they were upset, they would go and pat and play with the dog.” Womble even has daily rituals, such as sharing operations manager Briohny Fitzgerald’s carrots at morning tea.

Once the yellow vest is on, Womble is focussed on being the best grieving companion he can be for Kings Funerals. (Supplied)

Gallery expansion call

NEWS

YOUR SAY Coffee prices ‘obscene’

City of Greater Geelong and Geelong Gallery are seeking support to proceed to design and advanced planning for the expansion of the gallery into City Hall and the adjoining conference centre. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said the opening of the Wurriki Nyal precinct means City Hall will be reserved for civic and ceremonial events and the remaining space could be shared with the gallery to deliver drawcard exhibitions for the Geelong region. “Geelong Gallery’s expansion is among council’s key priority projects, and we have been advocating to the federal and state governments to support this iconic redevelopment in our UNESCO City of Design,” Cr Sullivan said. “The project will deliver significant benefits for the creative community, tourism growth and hospitality businesses – industries that were amongst the hardest hit by the pandemic. “The business case, delivered in December 2021, details a robust and convincing argument for the gallery’s expansion, and we now need federal and state investment to deliver this transformative project for our region.” Cr Sullivan said an expansion of the gallery would help Geelong maximise the benefits of co-hosting the Commonwealth Games in 2026. “Geelong Gallery is a major cultural institution, and its expansion would provide a drawcard visitor experience and generate economic uplift during the games and beyond,” Cr Sullivan said. Cr Sullivan said as well as delivering major national and international touring exhibitions, the expansion would enable the gallery to exhibit more of its nationally significant collection. Currently the Gallery can display only two per cent of its holdings. “Geelong Gallery is one of the most esteemed in the country and we want to make the most of its collection,” Cr Sullivan said.

A humble cup of coffee has now surged to $5 in many parts of Geelong. Working class Geelong. A product which costs retailers (according to industry sources) about $1.40 to put on the table. What an obscene profit margin from a single commodity. Talk about gouging the pockets of customers. Obscene. Michael J Gamble, Belmont

Fair go for students

“With expanded and upgraded facilities the Geelong Gallery would attract 350,000 visitors per year by 2035. “The redevelopment would deliver 25 full time jobs in the creative industry and 1200 direct and indirect jobs during the construction phase.” Geelong Gallery director and chief executive Jason Smith said as Victoria’s second largest and fastest growing city, Geelong requires the significant infrastructural development to ensure its readiness and relevance to current and future generations.

“The redevelopment of Geelong Gallery through a proposed expansion, including into the historic City Hall will present a new model of a regional art gallery for the 21st century: it will be a contemporary architectural and design experience, and a cultural, learning, and social space that also honours the civic and ceremonial heritage of the City Hall,” Mr Smith said. “The redevelopment project is ready for funding to proceed to detailed design, advanced planning for procurement, and construction.”

It was extremely encouraging to read about federal Labor’s promises of funding for public education in the Geelong region (“School election pledges,” Geelong Independent, 13/5/2022). Successive Australian federal governments have underfunded and badly neglected government schools. This has led to heartbreaking inequality in education funding and consequently public school students and staff have suffered much disadvantage. Fair and proper funding for public education is urgently needed in Australia and I genuinely hope that this will be the priority of the new Labor government, as well as the Greens and the Independents. Australia’s children and young people attending government schools deserve to receive the very best education possible. Robert Van Zetten, Highton

past conflict and the need for justice, rather than implying equal responsibility on the part of colonisers and colonised. What’s your connection to Geelong? When my husband’s grandmother was still alive, we used to come here to visit her and also his brother and sister-in-law who still live here with their kids. We loved the bay, walking by the river and the feeling of space and quiet. Recently my mother-in-law, who was born here but moved away as a kid, and my father-in-law, returned to live here too. And living here we are also a bit closer than we were to my dad who lives in the Otways on Gadubanud Country. What do you like about where you live? Where do I start?! In the wider region I love

the beaches, visiting Wurdi Youang/You Yangs or seeing the mountains rising up from across the bay when I drive into town, the beautiful trees that still line the creek at Dooliebeal – recognised now with the Wadawurrung name that references these red gums. I like knowing the neighbours up and down our street and even the challenge of learning about a place that is all new to me but has its own long history. It’s such beautiful country here. What, if anything, would you change about where you live? I think the things I would like to see change about where we live are similar wherever you go across this continent. For a start, greater recognition of First Nations people, culture and history. Geelong One Fire members

Where is your favourite local place to spend time? The street that runs parallel to ours used to be a creek before that waterway was sent underground. In the mornings I love seeing the early sun hit the eucalypts that line that road, smelling the scent that comes off the leaves as the sun begins to heat them, and hearing all the birdsong. It feels like the birds still know it’s a river there. It’s not a flashy part of the world, you might not notice it driving through, but it’s somewhere I can visit every day and feel connected to this place. Tell us something people would be surprised to know about you. That I really don’t like being in the public eye at all! But here I am telling strangers about myself. I’m doing this because Nikki McKenzie, who programmed Reconciliation in the Park this year, asked me to and I thought of the National Reconciliation Week theme to ‘be brave, make change’. So here I am being brave. There are many ways to respond to that imperative, I hope readers find their own ways too.

Tell us about Geelong One Fire. Geelong One Fire was established in the nineties by members that included First Nations and non-Aboriginal people who were involved in the Native Title movement at that time. Now, as a diverse membership of non-First Nations people, our focus is on backing the self-determination of Aboriginal peoples, and taking responsibility for our own learning in order to do that respectfully and usefully. We believe that recognition for First Nations sovereignty, acknowledgement of the true history of this continent and addressing the inequality that stems from that past, are key dimensions of what we continue to call reconciliation, but which I think of as reckoning or makarrata – that is, a process that recognises

Tell us a bit about you and what you do. I’m a writer and editor and moved here to Geelong/Djillong on Wadawurrung Country six years ago with my husband, two kids and our dog. At present I work on a trade publication about the book industry. I also volunteer as a member of Geelong One Fire Reconciliation Group – a group I joined in 2018 after being part of an incredible workshop at my then workplace, facilitated by Paola Balla, a Wemba-Wemba and Gunditjmara artist, curator and speaker. To my eternal shame, it took her generous and patient facilitation – and recommendation of Clare Land’s book Decolonising Solidarity – to make me realise that my fear of doing more harm than good as a non-First Nations person taking action for change shouldn’t stop me doing anything at all. Rather, I needed to read more, listen more and be prepared to be uncomfortable a lot of the time.

CREATING A CLEVER AND CREATIVE FUTURE FOR GREATER GEELONG

CITYNEWS RECONCILIATION WEEK We proudly acknowledge National Reconciliation Week, an event that runs from 27 May to 3 June each year. These dates commemorate two signiﬁcant milestones in the reconciliation journey - the successful 1967 referendum and the High Court Mabo decision, respectively. We believe in the notion that reconciliation must live in the hearts, minds and actions of all Australians as we move forward, creating a nation strengthened by respectful relationships between the wider Australian community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. At the City of Greater Geelong, we believe that we all have a role to play when it comes to reconciliation.

We believe that we can all play our part as we collectively build relationships and communities that value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories, cultures, and futures. The 2022 National Reconciliation Week theme is Be Brave. Make Change. In effect, it is a challenge to us all to Be Brave and tackle the unﬁnished business of reconciliation so we can Make Change for all. We are proud to bring you our Reconciliation Action Plan. The plan explains how we are going to change the way we do things to better support reconciliation, both within our organisation and with the community. Scan the QR code to read our plan.

Volunteers honoured Life Saving Victoria (LSV) has recognised volunteer members from Geelong, Otway, Surf Coast and across western Victoria for their outstanding achievements in operations, club services, development, training and sports during season 2021-22 at a valuing volunteer event. The celebration, which was one of three regional-based events across the state, took place at Jan Juc Surf Life Saving Club on May 19 and was part of National Volunteer Week, an initiative by Volunteering Australia that recognises the invaluable contributions of volunteers across the country. This included the gold, silver and bronze 100-plus patrol hours awards, which saw members recognised for the top 20 per cent (gold), 30 per cent (silver) and 50 per cent (bronze) of volunteer patrol contributions across the season. Victoria’s western clubs contributed 54,649 of the state’s 169,164 patrol hours for the season, equating to 2227 days of patrolling the region’s beaches. Apollo Bay SLSC club captain, 22-year-old Calden Lyons, was one of Victoria’s volunteers recognised in the gold category for his outstanding contribution in season 2021-22. “I am extremely proud to have contributed to my club and wider community, such as school bronze camps in season 2021-22,” he said. “For me, patrolling Apollo Bay each summer is a privilege, and it is so rewarding to work with so many brilliant people and give back to the community.” Mr Lyons’ mother and sister Evelyn and Tielle were also recognised in the gold and bronze categories for their efforts between the flags this summer. LSV acting president Adam Alsbury congratulated all the western Victorian

The Guide PICK OF THE WEEK

THE LIVING ROOM 10, Friday, 7.30pm

SECRETS OF ROYAL GARDENS SBS, Saturday, 8.30pm

FBI: MOST WANTED 10, Monday, 9.30pm

You never know what to expect with this fun-loving lifestyle series – other than a generous serving of childlike shenanigans and playful banter between the presenters. Amanda Keller, Dr Chris Brown (pictured), Miguel Maestre and Barry Du Bois have the kind of chemistry that morning-TV execs wish they could bottle. This week, the segments run the gamut from silly and witty to heartfelt and thoughtful. Dr Chris is with man’s best friend – coming to the rescue of a dog that needs a helping paw – and Miguel visits Batemans Bay NSW Fire Brigade to say thanks for their hard work during fire season.

There are many prisms with which to gaze at and try to understand the British royal family. This offering takes us deep inside the magical and surprising world of the family’s spectacular gardens. Narrated by Hugh Bonneville (pictured), it’s a tour which takes in many elements of the rarefied world, including hedged mazes and exotic animals, as well as the fascinating history of the Windsor clan. While one gardener states the obvious – “it’s great being a gardener in a place like this” – it’s a stunning insight into an exclusive world. This premiere episode explores the grounds of Buckingham, Kensington and Hampton Court Palaces.

When it comes to action films, Michael Bay is the movie director renowned for outrageous plots. In the realm of the by-the-numbers police procedural, Dick Wolf is your expert. As the creator of the Law & Order franchise – which has more than 10 spin-off series – Wolf has the blueprint for crime drama down pat, and that’s the way his fans like it. In this latest endeavour, Wolf is faithful to the popcorn predictability. In “Inheritance”, a couple are killed by a con artist pretending to be a personal trainer and Ortiz (Miguel Gomez) is between a rock and a hard place when Hana’s (Keisha Castle-Hughes, pictured) brother asks for a favour.

BARONS ABC TV, Sunday, 8.30pm

You could be forgiven for momentarily wondering whether you are watching Home and Away, or a commercial, rather than a well-acted ABC drama. Infused with a sun-kissed atmosphere and tales of drugs and drinking, Barons is not a hard-hitting drama; rather it’s a nostalgic, soft focus look back on the heyday of ’70s surfing in Australia, polished off with great costuming and an excellent soundtrack. The Vietnam War is merely a backstory as we witness the implosion of a friendship and the birth of rival surfwear brands. Tonight, a tragedy will change Buddy (Lincoln Younes, pictured) forever when he and Shirley (Catherine Vån-Davies) get caught up in Mac’s (Kick Gurry) shady Bali dealings.

ducation Week is always a time of celebration, but this year’s feels extra special. This year, Victoria is marking the historic milestone of 150 years of public education, and it is the theme of this Education Week. Of the schools opened in 1872, which was the year the public education act was enshrined into law, more than 150 state schools are still open today. In 2022, there are now more than 1500 schools providing education to Victorian communities, cementing our future as the Education State. Public education has changed lives – there’s no doubt about that. It is the great enabler. We know that with the right support, every child thrives. During Education Week – from May 22-28 – I encourage every student, parent, carer, teacher, and educator to take part in the variety of events and activities being held across the state. You will get so much out of it. This year is all about commemorating the past, celebrating the present and imagining the future of education here in Victoria. It’s an opportunity for all schools, higher education providers and early childhood education and care services to showcase their role in our state’s education story. A story that now includes successfully navigating all the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Victorians are also invited to contribute to a 150 Years of Public Education digital time capsule by emailing school memories, be it photos, reports, or trivia, to 150years@ education.vic.gov.au. For details of events in your area, go to vic.gov.au/education-week-2022 or for more information about 150 year celebrations visit vic.gov.au/150years. I encourage everyone to celebrate and support public education in Victoria and Education Week 2022. The Hon James Merlino MP Deputy Premier Minister for Education

Day boarding is growing in popularity Families in the Geelong and surrounding region have been taking an increased interest in their children day boarding at Geelong Grammar School’s Corio campus. Students can start in the vibrant middle school from year 5 as a day student and year 7 as a boarding student. All students in year 9 transition to full boarding at the Timbertop campus in the Victorian Alps. Students can join senior school – years 10 to year 12 – as a day boarder or full boarder. Day students in middle school enjoy the benefits and advantages that a boarding school structure provides whilst also enjoying the comforts of home. With a slightly longer school day, until 5pm several nights a week, students can participate in after-school sports and co-curricular activities before returning home.

- Isabel Longo, year 12 student In senior school, day boarders enjoy a longer day at school until 8.30pm most weeknights, where they complete sports training, co-curricular pursuits, enjoy dinner with friends and complete evening ‘prep’ (homework) under supervision and support of teachers and mentors. Year 12 student Isabel Longo says day boarding provides the opportunity to work as a team after school and connect with others. “Doing your homework with other people and helping them with questions allows you to consolidate your knowledge,” she says. “Playing sports after school has also allowed me to have friendships with students from other year levels and houses – you really get to know everyone on campus and feel connected.” For working parents who are trying to co-ordinate their child’s after-school activities with their own busy schedules, day boarding provides uninterrupted access to exceptional

A sense of belonging at Surf Coast Secondary College Surf Coast Secondary College (SCSC) opened in 2012 as the only stand-alone government secondary school in Torquay. The school is committed to ensuring that every student is challenged, motivated and engaged in their learning and feels that they belong in their school community. As a relatively new school, SCSC has always had a focus on ensuring that it is catering to the modern needs of its students and facilitating a curriculum that develops students as capable and active citizens of both the local and global community. Most commonly mentioned by school visitors on a tour or visit is the welcoming and vibrant atmosphere that flows freely in every corner of the school. This atmosphere does not just happen – it is an aspect of the school that every staff member works hard to ensure is present in everything they do, and stems from the college values of strive, unite, respect and flourish. Long gone are the days when using blackboards and sitting in rows constituted the majority of the school day. A key focus of principal Erin Wright and her team is the promotion and facilitation of independent and active learning. The teaching staff at SCSC believes in the premise that the more actively a student participates, the more they will engage in their learning, which more than often translates into improved outcomes and greater depth of learning. SCSC aims to provide a supportive and caring environment that takes into account the different needs of each student. Teachers and staff are focused on providing students with meaningful learning experiences that are catered to each student’s current level of learning, with a focus on

Enjoy year round swimming and build skills for life Learning to swim is not only a sport, it is an education and valuable life skill that will be a basis for recreation, fitness and most importantly, survival. Once the learner is a strong and competent swimmer, they can decide whether to pursue swimming-related sports. Until they reach that point, it is our responsibility to ensure learning is continuous and progressive. Children thrive on routine. If swimming lessons are regular and ongoing, they become familiar with the pool and instructors, and develop valuable skills. They will enjoy lessons

so much that they will want to attend regularly year round. Studies have shown that children who continue their lessons year round achieve better results than those who only attend intermittently. They are also fitter, stronger and better able to resist colds and flus over the winter months. Geelong Aquatic Centre (GAC) provides the ideal winter fitness pursuit. Swimming in a warm, indoor pool, protecting children from the harsh elements they often encounter on a football field or netball court. Year round

swimming is actually recommended for asthmatics, and many of our famous swimmers took up swimming as a treatment for their asthma. A warm hat, clothes and shoes are recommended to ensure that they are protected from the elements when they leave the centre. Australia has a large coastline with wonderful beaches, many inland waterways, lakes, dams and an ever-increasing number of backyard spas and pools, which will always attract children, so it’s very important that children feel confident in and around water. GAC is a dedicated Learn to Swim centre and

Children are all smiles after a visit to Happy Dental Why is child dental health so important? As children grow and develop, so do their teeth. It’s therefore extremely important for your children to visit a dentist, such as Happy Dental, to check the placement and eruption patterns of the adult teeth coming through. Adult teeth often come through into the mouth with deep grooves on the biting surface which can trap bacteria and develop decay, as it can be hard to brush properly. At times, fissure seals would be recommended to avoid decay –this is a very simple painless procedure that protects the teeth from cavities as they continue to form. From two years old, Happy Dental recommends visiting the dentist for an introduction and a quick look. Happy Dental works with the children’s abilities to make it a fun experience, rather than a daunting one – as many adults fear their own dental visits. Making dental visits a positive experience can encourage patients to get regular check-ups that can help prevent problems occurring down the track. Many people don’t realise that children aged from infants to 17 may be eligible for $1026 of dental treatment through Medicare, known as the Child Dental Benefit Schedule (CDBS). Happy Dental makes parents and guardians happy as well, with bulk billing and no gap payment for all eligible children. Happy Dental is a small, welcoming and most of all friendly team who will make yours and your child’s dental visit as fun and as comfortable as possible. With a television screen to play your child’s favorite show, time for a ride in the dental chair, and a little gift or toy at the conclusion of their appointment, your child will be asking to visit the dentist again in no time!

Getting your child used to the dentist early in life can establish a regular dental health routine and familiarity with a dentist’s office. (Supplied)

Happy Dental is located at 116 Shannon Avenue, Geelong West. For more information, visit www.happydental.com.au or phone (03) 5229 6668 to check whether your child is eligible for free dental work.

Tailored to individual need In Australia, we believe that every child should have equal access to education. Yet, school disengagement remains an ongoing but often hidden issue. Unfortunately, it is often the most vulnerable students whose needs are not being met. MacKillop Education has been supporting students who are unable to learn in a mainstream setting, within the Barwon region, for more than 10 years. In addition to the foundation to year 12 campus in Geelong, the school has campuses in both Caulfield (F-12) and Maidstone (years 3-6). Importantly, MacKillop Education teaches the mainstream curriculum (Victorian Curriculum and VCAL). However, it uses MacKillop’s education model, Reframing Learning and Teaching Environments (ReLATE) to provide a learning environment tailored to the individual needs of each student.

School can be a difficult environment for some students. “Our students come to us with a variety of barriers to education; however, deep down they all want to do well at school, they just haven’t discovered how yet,” MacKillop Education Geelong principal Justin Roberts says. “For most, what is lacking is a school environment that can meet their individual needs. It can take some time to identify these needs, and then develop strategies to assist, but we know that positive student/ teacher relationships and committing to walking the journey together, are the first steps.” To find out more about MacKillop Education and the student referral process, please phone (03) 5248 2557, or visit www.mackillopeducation.vic.edu.au.

Do students have enough munch time at lunch time? Recent research conducted by Deakin University’s Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition (IPAN) and School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences (SENS) has revealed some interesting information about kids and their lunchtimes. Most primary-aged kids only receive around 10 minutes to eat their lunch at school, despite the fact that many parents and teachers agree that this is not enough time. The Deakin University study showed that most parents believed children needed at least 15 minutes to each their lunch before being permitted to go outside to play. “Our research found that some parents also believe that limiting eating times influences the types of food their children wanted to take for lunch,” SENS’ Dr Melissa Burton says. “For example, with less time to eat, children are more likely to prioritise the most appealing foods in their lunchbox, such as the treats, which are often nutrient poor. “These findings not only have implications for children’s health but also their ability to learn, as research tells us that good nutrition is necessary to help children thrive academically.” IPAN’s Dr Claire Margerison said that though research revealed parents reporting

their children would be more likely to finish the contents of their lunch box with more time, there are mixed views on whose responsibility it is to encourage healthy eating, among other things. “About half of the parents and teachers

surveyed said only parents and children should choose what food they eat at school, while one quarter of parents and one third of teachers believed that schools should have a responsibility to monitor food brought from

home,” Dr Margerison says. “Criticising individual children’s lunchboxes was generally viewed as inappropriate among both parents and teachers.” However, the study also showed that parents were open to general suggestions and feedback about the contents of kids’ lunchboxes. “Many parents thought teachers should eat their own lunch with the children, believing this would be a good opportunity to role model healthy eating to children,” Dr Margerison says. This sentiment wasn’t as popular with teachers as it was with parents. “Children spend so much of their time at school, the lines between what is the parent’s responsibility and what is the teacher’s responsibility is often blurred, and these research findings certainly highlight some of those grey areas,” Dr Margerison says. The study clearly shows that giving children an extra five minutes to eat their lunch will be beneficial and has the potential to increase children’s ability to focus and learn. “How we find that extra five minutes is what we want to look at next,” Dr Margerison says. “Do we take it from play time or class time, or could we have an educational lunch and teach about nutrition at the same time?”

Ideas to keep your kids busy and the planet happy With the next round of school holidays quickly approaching, many parents and guardians may be scratching their heads trying to think of activities to keep their kids occupied.

Read on to find out a few fun ideas to keep the kids busy in a sustainable way: Make your own backyard games: rather than buying new toys for the holidays, use a few common household items to create some fun games. For example, find empty plastic bottles, paint them white with red stripes and use tennis balls to make your own pin bowling set. Go on an insect scavenger hunt: create a checklist of insect pictures of the bugs and other critters found in your backyard. Go outside with the kids and a magnifying glass and teach them about the little beasties around your home. Build a little veggie garden: Pick up a small garden bed from your local hardware store, along with enough bags of soil, manure and other products to fill it. Plant some easy veggie seedlings and use some icy pole sticks to write the name of the plants in the garden. Not only will these activities keep your kids entertained and happy for some time over the holidays, they will also benefit the planet! Originally published on www.realestateview. com.au.

Surf Coast Secondary College

Glenn Davey has been in the government education system for almost 50 years - 20 of those years as a principal and the last 10 years as principal at Geelong High School. According to Mr Davey, the challenges faced by teachers and support staff in the first 40 years of his career pale in significance compared with the challenges of these last few years. Parents and families are looking to schools to provide support for their children’s learning and wellbeing, in equal parts. The growing inequity in our society has compounded these challenges, according to Mr Davey. As inclusive establishments, government schools play a valuable and unique role in addressing these inequities. “At Geelong High School, we are proud of the fact that regardless of family circumstances, students get a high quality education. We have outstanding teachers who deliver a high-quality learning program that is differentiated to the students’ points of need,” Mr Davey says.

Erin Wright has been the Principal of Surf Coast SC since 2020; having stepped up from the Assistant Principal role at the College to assume leadership as principal during a very challenging time for us all. Since Surf Coast Secondary College opened its doors in 2012, we have focused on shaping and maintaining a culture where all members of our community are positive, supportive, kind and open minded. I am proud to be the principal of this wonderful school where we support the young people in our community to challenge themselves to grow not only in their learning, but also to develop a well-rounded sense of self and the world that they live in. We are so lucky to be situated in the wonderful Surf Coast Shire in Torquay. Being active and positive contributors to our community is important, and a large part of that is developing an appreciation for diversity. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school community where ALL young people are welcomed, accepted, supported and included. 12551745-NG21-22

Fostering individual talent Freshwater Creek Steiner School (FWCSS) was founded by a group of dedicated mums in the late 1980s. Since then, it has evolved into a primary school as well as a kinder and currently has 177 pupils between playgroups, the kindergarten and all the way to year 6. Set on 24 acres of farm and bushland in Freshwater Creek, the school has a partnership with the farm next door, allowing children to engage deeply in the farming and environmental care program. Steiner Education is a growing international movement, with more than 1500 schools worldwide offering playgroups to year 12. The curriculum is based on Dr Rudolf Steiner’s childhood development principles and is aimed at creating an environment and activities that allow each child to fully develop their unique physical, academic and emotional capacities and identities. Steiner Education is a very different approach to mainstream schooling. The students develop strong relationships with the

staff. They are supported to grow as individuals while developing the knowledge, skills and sensitivities they will need to grow into capable and confident teenagers. Primary children have lesson units focused on world stories from different eras. These are supported by specialist subjects including Japanese, handcrafts, music (singing and instruments), painting, farming, gardening and lots more. All subjects are taught through the creative arts, with many hands-on activities, camps and incursions. “FWCSS provides a creative education of the highest quality, supporting the children to develop clarity of thinking, sensitivity of feeling and strength of will,” head of school Gabby Brennan says.

ENTERTAINMENT Club Soda is heading to the Potato Shed on June 4. (Supplied)

Dreaming of a picture

Mr Sandman will amuse Club Soda – cabaret with a twist, will froth and pop at the Potato Shed at 8pm, Saturday, June 4. A refreshing and effervescent vintage-inspired theatrical entertainment experience infused with dance and vaudeville, and served with a slice of magic, a twist of circus and a heady mix of comedy. In Club Soda, Mr Sandman will lead you down the rabbit hole into a surreal and magical speak-easy, serving up a cocktail of secret ingredients, shaken over ice, poured into the Collins glass of your mind, garnished with a lime wheel and topped with soda for the soul. Club Soda is the newest concept from the creative team behind The Paris Underground

Cabaret; the most successful touring cabaret production in Australia, now into its sixth year of engagements and return seasons all over Australia. Club Soda promises a bubbly, refreshing critical mass of entertainment for one night only, with more than a few twists and surprises throughout the night. Also at the Potato Shed is June Morning Showtime at 10.30am on Tuesday, June 7. It’s a celebration of all things The Beatles. Join your time traveller guide Colin Mockett as he takes you through the interactive singalong, entertaining you with anecdotes about the Fab Four. Following on from last year’s Beatles

singalong, words to classic Beatles hits will once again be projected onto a cinema-sized screen interspersed with images of the group. Adding to the playlist will be hits from those who were influenced by the Beatles – the Monkees, Hollies and a host of 1960s hit groups. You’ll be tapping your toes and singing along to songs such as Mrs Robinson, Daydream Believer, Friday on my Mind, You Really Got a Hold on Me and many more. Expertly researched by Colin Mockett, Adam Parsons will be on hand to supply the musical soundtrack to your youth. Book tickets for both shows at geelongaustralia.com.au/potatoshed.

Photographer Rebecca Hosking dreamed up a creative project to re-engage and enliven the Surf Coast after the COVID lockdowns via the transformative nature of vibrant art. By bringing artists from different Surf Coast towns together, who specialise in different mediums, for a new art concept and new project, with the outcome to share this with the public via a large scale Art Projection Installation. The metamorphosis of vibrant moving paint landscapes will illuminate a wall on the Surf Coast, engaging and uplifting the community with the transformative power of art, accompanied by a deep and lifting soundscape. “Illumination explores the transformative nature of life, our land and constellations beyond, honouring our First Nations People’s ancient culture’s storytelling medium of paint,” Hosking said. “Multidisciplinary artists and art forms from the Surf Coast combine to create Illumination. film, paint, music. “It is an experimental art form bringing together Surf Coast painting artists, sound artists with film and projection art to transform a stadium wall in the Surf Coast, for one night only, to connect community and enliven the senses, with vibrant art.” Everyone is welcome to attend with the creation playing on a loop with timed entries for spread out viewing experiences. Tickets are $5 each (with a $0.50 booking fee) via Eventbrite.

Ford powers into the EV market By Ewan Kennedy, Marque Motoring Our most recent road test review was of a Ford Escape SUV plug-in hybrid, which is usually tagged as a PHEV (Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicle). It is the first Ford vehicle to be sold in Australia with any form of electrification. Ford is working hard at reducing future vehicle emissions in many ways. Amongst these will be the addition of electric power to all models, in the form of as well as standard and plug-in petrol/electric hybrids as well as pure electric EVs. Escape PHEV comes only in the ST-Line spec level, priced at $53,440 plus on-road costs. The petrol-only ST-Line sells for $38,490

Styling Ford Escape has a sensible shape that looks attractive without losing interior and luggage space by having a semi-coupe shape at the rear. This makes it relatively unusual in this class. The front is big and bold with a large grille and headlights that run almost halfway to the windscreen. The lower edge of the window line sloops up to meet the down sloop of the upper edge.

Interior The seats on our test Escape ST-Line were in a soft looking black colour with red stitching that gives a real upmarket feeling. Versatility is good as the second row of seats can be moved forwards or backwards to juggle between legroom and boot space.

Infotainment Wireless charging is standard in all Escapes, so compatible devices are ready to go at all times. The advanced 10-speaker, 575-watt set-up has been specifically developed and fine-tuned for

the Escape ST-Line Plug-In Hybrid & Escape Vignale by specialist B&O sound engineers. A powerful set up lets you hear music as it’s meant to be heard. We certainly enjoyed this during our 447-kilometre week in the Escape Plug-In Hybrid. However, there’s the common problem of loss of signal on the radio when the landscape and buildings get between you and a direct signal.

Emergency Braking (AEB) with pedestrian and cyclist detection. Always scanning ahead, it alerts the driver of potential collisions and applies the brakes if an unexpected danger appears in front of the car. The SYNC3 system works if you’re in a crash that activates the airbags or shuts the fuel pump off, Emergency Assistance uses your paired smartphone to dial emergency services and provide them with your GPS location.

Powertrain Escape PHEV is powered by a 2.5-litre naturally-aspirated 165 kW petrol engine driving through what Ford calls an eCVT automatic. There’s also a lithium-ion battery and electric motor. These combine to drive the front wheels. When driven solely in EV mode you can expect a range of about 50 to 55 kilometres.

Safety Every Escape model features Autonomous

Driving Escape PHEV can be driven as a pure electric (EV Now) or as a conventional petrol/electric hybrid (EV Auto). The Ford Escape comes with five selectable drive modes to suit varying conditions – normal, eco, sport, slippery deep snow/sand and trail. The head-up display projects key information into the driver’s field of vision, so they can

keep their eyes on the road with a minimum of head movement. The system in the Escape is far better than that in many other marques because you don’t need to turn your head if you’re wearing polarising sunglasses. The 12.3-inch digital cluster reduces distraction by displaying only the information you need. You can change between unique colour themes according to which drive mode you have selected. The new platform, tagged as C2, means the latest Ford Focus is up to 90 kg lighter than the previous model. The platform provides increased rigidity as well as noise, vibration, harshness improvements.

Summing up Ford Escape PHEV is an impressive piece of modern automotive technology. It’s enjoyable to drive, even more so with the instant action when you use the accelerator. The price is a killer and the sooner our various Australian governments do something to assist buyers the better.

Section 4 Boys in form LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers It was perfect conditions for tennis last Saturday – the sun was out, the wind was nowhere to be felt, and the competition was hotting up in Section 4 Boys. Six points separated first from eighth, all matches were scheduled in pairs from the ladder, and at the end of the morning, only one team didn’t change positions on the ladder. First placed Clifton Springs travelled to Jan Juc to face second placed Surfcoast Blue. Starting two sets down, due to being short a player, the Springs matched Blue for sets with Max Ballagh winning his singles and Shannon Ballagh teaming with Nathan Oddo to take the doubles while Zane Ryan and Rex Kadera won their singles for Blue to give them a 4-2 win. The match up of third versus fourth saw All Saints host Highton and play out a close one. Highton began on the back foot, a player

down, but started well with William Gruer and Daniel Locke winning their singles. All Saints countered with Alexander Williams taking the third singles, then Highton drew the match level on sets taking the doubles, but couldn’t make up the game difference, leaving All Saints with the win overall. Fifth versus sixth was Surf Coast Jan Juc White against Wandana Heights, and it was a close one. Vander Withers took the first set in a tie break for White, while Thomas Smith got the second for Wandana 6-2. The third went to Matt Wolff for White and the fourth to Marcus Ludowyk for Wandana, leaving the teams tied at two sets all with a four-game lead to Wandana going into the doubles. Here the match turned with the home team taking both sets, giving them a four sets to two lead with a four- game advantage. The final match of the round saw Centre Court face Drysdale with some great tennis

on display. Centre Court’s Madison Muir had a tough set against Owen McCoughtry with some long and evenly matched rallies, but her court smarts produced a win 6-1 in the first singles, while Drysdale’s Harper Fawcett, with his consistency and court coverage, levelled the match with a 6-2 win. The remaining two singles were also divided with Thomas Evans’ (Centre Court) big hitting getting him a 6-2 win and Pat Lonegran’s (Drysdale) movement across the court helping him to a 6-2 win. With only one game difference between the teams, the doubles produced some fantastic tennis, but Centre Court won out in both, finishing with a 4-2 victory. With all four home teams winning through, the ladder now stands with Jan Juc Blue on top, followed by All Saints, Clifton Springs, with Jan Juc White rounding out the four, then Highton, Wandana heights, Centre Court and Drysdale.

Menegola eyes off round 12 return Geelong midfielder Sam Menegola is a chance to play against the Western Bulldogs in round 12, according to coach Chris Scott. Menegola hasn’t played this season due to a knee injury but Scott was confident he would soon be available, saying “he’s a chance next week”. “It’s been really frustrating for Sam because if you saw the way he’s training, he’s in supreme condition and he’s doing 95 per cent of the work, but there’s just five percent of what he needs to do in a game that’s still giving him some pain,” he said. “The medical staff are confident this will turn around pretty quickly. “This is more like what we expected after the surgery back in November but he just made such rapid progress that we thought that he might be way ahead and maybe that was a false dawn, we should have been a little more tempered in terms of our expectations. “The good news is he’s running as well as he ever has, which is pretty well. So we think he’ll hit the ground running when he does come in and play some footy.” Patrick Dangerfield won’t play until after the bye and will miss the next two games with a calf complaint.

Dangerfield will have three weeks rest, missing games against Adelaide and Western Bulldogs before Geelong’s midseason bye. “Given there are two games before the bye, we can use that extra week, which is probably more than he needs, in reality,” Scott said. “We think that’s going to have him in the best shape to have a really good run at the last couple of months of the season.” Geelong takes on Adelaide at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday, May 28 at 1.45pm. Meanwhile Sophie Van De Heuvel has left Geelong and will join AFLW expansion club Essendon. Van De Heuvel, 21, was an inaugural member of the Cats’ playing group, drafted with pick 2 in the 2018 draft, and has played 31 games across four seasons. “Sophie has been an integral member of our playing squad since we entered the AFLW, and we thank her for all she has given the club,” Geelong Cats Head of AFLW and pathways Brett Johnson said. “In addition to her on-field ability, we know Sophie’s new team will benefit from her warmth and kindness that the Cats have enjoyed over the past four years.” Justin Flynn

The fishing at the moment around the Geelong waterfront has been red hot with Australian salmon keeping anglers very entertained. Multiple large scores of salmon have been holding in the area and have been great access for land based fishos. Quite often the fish can be sighted on the surface busting up and chasing baitfish and that’s when casting soft plastics and small hardbody lures into the commotion is an effective and fun way to catch them. Berkley 3-inch minnows have been a hot favourite for this situation as they resemble the baitfish perfectly. There still remains to be plenty of other species on offer including snapper, flathead and silver trevally. Yet again the outer harbour continues to dominate reports with King George whiting going absolutely ballistic from Clifton Springs right through to Queenscliff. Anglers fishing just about any tide with fresh pippis and squid have been having tremendous success landing big numbers of whiting and some quality fish too. Calamari are still hanging around also just in a little bit shallower water with Shimano White squid jigs working the best. The offshore fishing has been very productive especially if you’re chasing a feed of fresh flake as there seems to be sharks just about everywhere. Offshore Barwon Heads has been fishing very well for both gummy and school shark to 15kg getting around. Gone Fishing charters has been having great success both in the bay and offshore getting customers onto some fantastic quality gummies. Out deep off Port Fairy has also been producing plenty of sharks. Peri from Trelly’s Fishing World Geelong fished alongside Anthony Pirrottina and the boys managed some quality school shark to over 20kg and also a mako of around 80kg. The bluefin tuna bite down the west coast is still on fire with school fish in the thousands and still plenty of barrel reports coming in each day. Anywhere from Lawrence Rock right through to Cape Bridgewater has been holding great numbers of school fish. Aloha Super ninjas have been a very popular lure of choice for the barrels as of late.

The giant killers knock off Colac By Justin Flynn Geelong West Giants are knocking on the door of the Geelong Football League top five after a thrilling upset win against Colac in round seven on Saturday. The Giants scraped home by a point at Colac and are only of the five on percentage. Baxter Mensch ran amok in the midfield for Geelong West racking up the possessions and slotted a goal while Colac’s Adam Garner booted four goals. Grovedale defeated Leopold with a kick after the siren. Flynn Young had booted three for Grovedale, but none was more important

than his fourth, which he snagged after the final bell to give his side a two-point win. Anglesea recruit Dale Kerr was brilliant for the Tigers while Jordan Erskine kicked four goals. Leopold is still in the five with Mitchell Patten putting in a good game and Marcus Thompson and Jai Thompson each had 32 disposals. Newtown & Chilwell didn’t have things their own way against South Barwon, but still did enough to win by eight points and retain second spot. South Barwon led by 11 points at the final break, but the Eagles booted four goals to one in the last term.

Matty Lloyd had 39 disposals while Zach Walter racked up 32 while Andrew Boseley kicked three goals and took seven marks for South Barwon. St Mary’s remained unbeaten with a 40-point triumph against St Joseph’s. Harry Benson had 39 touches and Max Augerinos 32 as the Saints ran rampant through the middle of the ground. James Gow had 21 possessions for Joeys, which included 13 contested. Bell Park brushed past a plucky Lara by 37 points to notch its second win of the season. Darcy Brown was best for the Dragons while Lachlan Patten found the footy 38 times in a dominant performance.

Billy Goodwin (14 kicks and 11 handballs) was Lara’s best. North Shore won its third game of the season, beating St Albans by 23 points. The Supersaints took a handy 20-point into the second quarter, but North Shore lifted to kick 10 of the last 15 goals of the game. Sam Witherden, who crossed over from Barwon Heads this season, had 31 disposals for North Shore and Nick Dixon had the ball on a string with 41. Former Ocean Grove livewire Sam Donegan kicked four goals for St Albans and had 36 possessions to showcase his undoubted talent.

‘Heartbreaking’ shootout for Aussies Star Geelong ice hockey player Ashlie Aparicio has just finished representing Australia at the World’s Women’s Division 2B Championships in Zagreb, Croatia. The 28-year-old was best on the ice in one of the games, but Australia heartbreakingly lost the gold medal match to Iceland in an overtime shootout. It means the Aussies will stay in the same division for the next round of world competition in 2023. “Losing the grand final was heartbreaking, but in a penalty shoot out is even more difficult as it removes the team sport element from the game,” Aparicio said. “But our team only conceded one goal in regular play throughout the whole tournament, compared with the 38 we scored, so our heads were still held high.” Aparicio has been playing inline hockey for more than 20 years and has travelled throughout Europe, New Zealand and the USA representing Australia on inline skates/roller blades since she was 14. “In 2016, I decided I wanted a new challenge and learnt how to ice skate and joined the state women’s team – Melbourne Ice,” Aparicio said. She joined the Australian Women’s team in 2019. Aparicio’s form during the-form tournament 34 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 27 May, 2022

peaked with her performance against South Africa in which she was named player of the game. “Every line has a different role, and our job was to be strong defensively and shut down their scoring line’s opportunities, which we did

quite well,” she said. “We also generated a lot of scoring opportunities and evolved as the tournament went on. I was honoured to receive the player of the game award in game three. “I collected a few points in this game, but I think the award was for effort put in at both ends of the ice. It’s always easier to work hard when you have possession of the puck and an opportunity to score, but it’s what you do when you don’t have the puck like blocking shots, back checking, winning one on one battles and maintaining that pressure for an entire 60 minutes that makes the biggest difference.” Aparicio said ice hockey is a niche sport in Australia, but that Geelong has a strong inline hockey presence. “In Geelong, we play inline hockey, which has some similar concepts and much of the same equipment as ice hockey, but a lesser degree of contact and collision,” she said. “Our inline hockey leagues in Geelong are one of the biggest, if not the biggest in Australia and New Zealand.” Justin Flynn

Six Geelong Falcons teenagers were invited to the AFLW Draft Combine in Melbourne on Wednesday, May 25. Ash Van Loon and Elizabeth Dowling from St Marys, Charlotte Simpson and Mia Van Dyk from St Josephs, Analea McKee from Geelong Amateur and Grace Purcell from Barwon Heads will be doing their best to impress club recruiters ahead of the draft on June 29. This year’s NAB AFLW Draft Combine will be held across 10 locations, with 106 players invited to attend. This includes 78 players eligible for the NAB AFLW Draft for the first time, and a further 28 open-age players. The 2022 NAB AFLW Draft Combine will feature one physical test, with all players to complete a 2km time trial. The reduction in testing at this year’s combine takes into consideration changes to AFLW timelines, the significant amount of pre-season testing that was conducted nationally earlier this year and state league finals being staged in the lead up to the draft. AFL Talent Ambassador Kevin Sheehan said players invited to the 2022 NAB AFLW Draft Combine represented the next crop of AFLW stars. “We are very excited about the high level of talent within this group of future stars of the AFLW,” Sheehan said. “The 2022 version of the NAB AFLW Draft Combine will be shorter than those held in previous years, however the on-field performance of this group of players over the past season has provided a great indication that they will have a huge impact on the NAB AFLW competition.”
