The native Greater Glider has been moved from vulnerable to endangered status according to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, effective from Tuesday 5 July. Found throughout the Yarra Ranges, particularly in the National Park, the Greater Glider currently has no dedicated federal or state Recovery Plan or relevant threat Abatement Plan according to the Australian Government’s De-

President of the Warburton Environment organisation Nic Fox said it’s only been five years since the Greater Glider was first considered threatened. “This animal needs to have an action plan and it needs to be protected because this iconic species has been pushed to the brink of extinction,” she said. “I think the main impacts are logging, bushfires and climate change.

IN BRIEF Car rollover in Yarra Glen
Another rate rise The Reserve Bank of Australia announced an increase of 50 basis points to the cash rate target, to 1.35 per cent, in an effort to combat inflation. RBA Governor Philip Lowe said in a statement inflation in Australia is high but not as high as in many other countries. “Global factors account for much of the increase in inflation in Australia, but domestic factors are also playing a role,” he said. “Strong demand, a tight labour market and capacity constraints in some sectors are contributing to the upward pressure on prices. The floods are also affecting some prices.” The cash rate represents the interest rate on unsecured overnight loans between banks. It serves as the benchmark rate for mortgages, savings accounts and exchange rates. With the announced increase, it has reached the highest levels since May 2019. The cash rate was at a historical low of 0.10 per cent for one year and four months from November 2020 to April 2022. The increase will see a household with a
$500,000 mortgage pay roughly an extra $137 a month. The RBA is forecasting inflation to peak later this year and decline back towards the 2 to 3 per cent range in 2023. Currently, inflation is sitting at 5.1 per cent. Inflation is the increase in the cost of goods and services bought by households. Mr Lowe said as global supply-side problems begin to ease and commodity prices stabilise, inflation is expected to moderate. “Higher interest rates will also help establish a more sustainable balance between the demand for and the supply of goods and services,” he said. “Medium-term inflation expectations remain well-anchored and it is important that this remains the case.” The increase will see a household with a $500,000 mortgage pay roughly an extra $137 a month. According to the statement, a full set of updated forecasts will be published next month following the release of the June quarter Consumer Price Index.
Mr Lowe said the Australian economy remains resilient and “the labour market is tighter than it has been for some time.” “The unemployment rate was steady at 3.9 per cent in May, the lowest rate in almost 50 years. Underemployment has also fallen significantly,” he said. “Job vacancies and job ads are both at very high levels and a further decline in unemployment and underemployment is expected over the months ahead.” Mr Lowe said the increase today in interest rates is a further step in the withdrawal of the extraordinary monetary support put in place during the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. The resilience of the economy and the higher inflation means that this extraordinary support is no longer needed,” he said. “The Board expects to take further steps in the process of normalising monetary conditions in Australia over the months ahead. “The size and timing of future interest rate increases will be guided by the incoming data and the Board’s assessment of the outlook for inflation and the labour market.”
Three burst mains for Upper Yarra homes By Callum Ludwig A number of large water mains in the Upper Yarra burst on Thursday 7 July which impacted residents’ water pressure. The incidents occurred on Bellbird Avenue Launching Place, Barrowby Avenue Woori Yallock and Old Don Rd Don Valley. General Manager of Distribution Services at Yarra Valley Water Bridie Fennessy said they sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused by the incidents. “There were several water main bursts yesterday. Our maintenance crew were on hand to respond quickly and we immediately notified our customers through our usual channels,” she said. “The issue has been resolved and all services are back to normal. We also provided drinking water for our customers on-site while essential emergency works were carried out.” The high pressures at which water travels through the Yarra Valley are often a contributing factor to burst water mains, which often causes incidents as the strength of pipes reduces as they age. If water is not flowing at its usual rate out of taps, it may indicate that there are planned or emergency works underway.

Wesburn lacks crossings By Callum Ludwig Road safety in the Yarra Ranges is again a key topic as a legally blind Wesburn resident contends with the lack of available crossings. Marie Pleuger has lived in the Yarra Valley since 1987, and since 2004 has been gradually losing her sight to a genetic form of macular dystrophy, a build-up of fatty yellow pigment around the macula part of the retina, responsible for clear vision in your direct line of sight. Ms Pleuger said she was living out in Hoddles Creek when she was diagnosed. “I was a gradual thing that I’ve had coming on since my 40s, I lived out in Hoddles Creek on a large rural property for 35 years and gradually was unable to drive safely,” she said. “I became more and more isolated, especially as were 25 minutes away from the nearest bus stop. So we started looking every now and again for another property, and we loved our property but it was becoming a bit of a hardship for me.” Ms Pleuger has access to half-price taxi fares due to her condition and makes the most of them where she can. Ms Pleuger said she loves her new property in Wesburn, other than her concerns about trying to get across the highway from the bus stop. “Looking outwards all we have is a rural outlook and the hills, it’s superb, it’s beautiful and it’s quiet. We’re both incredibly happy here. I’ve found I can access the bus, get to my philosophy classes, do my grocery shopping, and get to the doctor’s but if I get a bus home I have to try and cross the highway,” she said. “I’ve travelled around the world for three and a half years, but I don’t trust myself to cross that highway. The nearest crossing without it being school time is at Millgrove and to get from Millgrove to where I live is four kilometres which just isn’t realistic for me.” The nearest bus stop rests near a bend in the Warburton Highway, where numerous complaints have been made previously about the lack of road safety development, from

A Department of Transport spokesperson said safety remains their top priority. “We are always monitoring our road network to determine where upgrades are needed,” they said. “We have delivered Pedestrian Operated
Picture: ON FILE Signals at several points along the Warburton Highway where they are needed most - safely connecting pedestrians and cyclists with the Warburton Trail.” The nearest signalised pedestrian crossing is in Millgrove, between Hearse Road and Gillis Road. In the five years leading up to 31 December 2021, there were no recorded crashes involving pedestrians along Warburton Highway be-
tween Old Warburton Road and the Crescent. The Department of Transport considers and evaluates all requests on a state-wide basis with consideration given to a number of factors, such as the number and type of vehicles using the stretch of road, pedestrian volumes, the historical safety record of the site, and the impact that upgrading the road would have on the performance of the surrounding road network.
The strength of The Girls Movement in the Upper Yarra By Callum Ludwig Starting in 2017, The Girls Movement (TGM) has been empowering women in the Upper Yarra, with a self-defence, relationships and consent S.E.L.F workshop held on Sunday 10 July. Local residents Teri McIntyre, Robyn Wright and Yalleen Flahive grew up in the area their whole lives and saw a dearth of opportunities for young women growing up. Ms McIntyre, who is still a Director of TGM, said while it is a lot better now, it used to be difficult for women to travel out, particularly on public transport. “We wanted to create The Girls Movement to create some events, build a bit of community and provide opportunities for women to get involved,” she said. “We started looking at grants and applying for them through Bendigo Bank, Yarra Ranges Council and the local Rotary Club to put together a couple of events. We did a few outdoor cinemas in Yarra Junction to start which was great. The S.E.L.F workshop represents what TGM has evolved into, and was held at the Yarra Centre in Yarra Junction from 11am to 1pm, with all women aged 12 to 25 welcome to participate for free. Ms McIntyre said unfortunately due to a number of Covid cancellations, only two girls were able to attend but they had a really good time. “At least it gave us extra time with them, and we got to teach them a few more things than we would usually have the chance to,” she said. “The key thing they got out of it was getting comfortable using their voice, as younger teenagers. At that age, it can be quite challenging to speak up and be confident using your voice, as well as learn a few techniques. learning how to protect their space and use 4 MAIL

Ella and Emily participating in the workshop. their own strength.” Ms McIntyre said TGM originally ran a self-defence workshop from an external provider years ago, but found while it was good, it wasn’t necessarily appropriate for the age group they were working with. “From that, Robin and myself, who both have a fitness background, decided to get our own qualifications in women’s self-defence. We contacted a company called Modern Defensive Techniques Australia, and trained with them for a couple of years to get our qualifications,” she said. “We both became qualified in 2019 and then we run one workshop for 12 girls under 25, and it was really good. Then there was the pandemic and finally, we are back.” The 60-minute self-defence session aims to teach attendees how to use their voice to ward off an attacker, what situational awareness is and why it’s important as well as a number of basic strikes and kicks.
Pictures: SUPPLIED The workshop was followed by a 45-minute session on consent and relationships from Elephant Ed, a sex education organisation run by young people, for young people. Ms McIntyre said sex education is super important, particularly as previously it hasn’t been very common and there hadn’t been much discussion about consent and relationships in generations past. “We really wanted to provide an opportunity where girls can learn about this kind of stuff with their friends in a space outside of school, where they’re safe and feel comfortable to ask questions and get involved,” she said. “It will provide that opportunity for them in a way that’s accessible and free and they’ll be able to learn from their peers as well. I think Elephant Ed does such a great job and being run by young people, it can be more comfortable learning about that stuff from someone their own age rather than from

Ms McIntyre said the consent workshop was fantastic and she is hoping to make the workshop a semi-regular event. “The workshop took them through the legalities of consent, particularly in Victoria, which is great to learn. We did a great exercise, we watched a video clip of the song ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’ and analysed consent in that scenario and what it looks like when someone is withdrawing consent,” she said. “We’re looking at the moment at organising a regular drop-in session, which would be for all ages, with a venue, date and times to be confirmed and we will probably run the S.E.L.F session every couple of months.” mailcommunity.com.au

Glider now endangered By Callum Ludwig The native Greater Glider has been moved from vulnerable to endangered status according to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, effective from Tuesday 5 July. Found throughout the Yarra Ranges, particularly in the National Park, the Greater Glider currently has no dedicated federal or state Recovery Plan or relevant threat Abatement Plan according to the Australian Government’s Department for Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. President of the Warburton Environment organisation Nic Fox said it’s only been five years since the Greater Glider was first considered threatened. “This animal needs to have an action plan and it needs to be protected because this iconic species has been pushed to the brink of extinction,” she said. “I think the main impacts are logging, bushfires and climate change. We know the devastating 2019 bushfires destroyed nearly two-thirds of the Greater Glider habitat near Gippsland, but nothing has been done to protect the unburned areas in any other parts of the state to provide a lifeline for this animal that is clearly in crisis.” The cute marsupials are cat-sized, with small beady eyes and big ears.

going to be losing these animals,” she said. “It’s also for ourselves, biodiversity is a central part of the ecosystem. Without one element, another element goes, we know that that has an impact throughout the whole ecosystem.” Bushfires ripping through their habitat have been a large factor in falling glider numbers, but they are also adversely affected by changes in temperature. Heatwaves and rising night-time temperatures have a significant impact on the well-being of the species. Ms Fox called for a transition away from the
logging of native forests. “There are strong links between logging and bushfires, we saw that in 2019 in Marysville, it was heavily logged around there and it burned hard. We know that we’re in a time of climate change, which affects us and these creatures. Whatever we can do to tackle any of those three elements we need to do it urgently, and I see [stopping] logging the habitat of the greater gliders is the first thing that we could do easily,” she said. “They need their habitat, as we all do. It’s an incredibly cute and beautiful creature. It doesn’t make it any more valuable than for ex-
ample, the Mt Donna Buang Wingless Stonefly, but when you lose it you don’t actually know what you’re losing. We don’t know exactly what role it plays in the ecosystem.” In 2019, VicForests implemented harvesting and regeneration reforms to adopt adaptive approaches to selecting and applying harvesting and regeneration systems that retain and protect a broad range of forest values including the Greater Glider. A VicForests spokesperson said their activities are informed by the latest scientific research and guided by best practices. “Through surveys and the development of new harvesting approaches, we do everything we can for the conservation of the Greater Glider,” they said. “We prioritise the retention of hollow-bearing trees to preserve potential habitat for the Greater Glider and other wildlife.” In accordance with the Greater Glider Action Statement – developed by the Victorian Government on the basis of expert scientific advice, VicForests retains at least 40 per cent of trees across each timber harvesting coupe, prioritising live, hollow bearing trees, wherever a density of Greater Gliders is equal to or greater than five individuals per spotlight kilometre. Since 2019 VicForests has had a dedicated Greater Glider Conservation Strategy in place and had additional protections in place since the 2019/20 bushfires. Post-harvesting surveys demonstrate the continued persistence of Greater Gliders in areas that have been recently harvested under our current practices. VicForests said it will continue to adapt its management in response to new information and will consider the updated Greater Glider conservation advice, and any future National Recovery Plan, in determining changes to protections, priority management actions and changes to its management systems.

First report issued By Mikayla van Loon With the ongoing importance and urgency of continuing the truth-telling process, the Yoorrook Justice Commission released its first interim report on Monday 4 July to help present the views of Elders. Compiled in the report are the stories of close to 200 Elders from across Victoria who took part in the first stages of the truth and justice commission’s investigations. Commission Chair Eleanor Bourke said the report details the ongoing pain and harm to Victorian First Peoples at the individual, family, community and state level. “Each of the 200 Elders we spoke to pointed to the ongoing effects of discriminatory policies and racist beliefs, including those that led to the Stolen Generation; policies and beliefs that have not only affected them but continue to affect their children and grandchildren,” she said. “Yoorrook Commissioners have seen a deep heaviness of heart and heard despair at the continuation of injustice.” A key part of the report is giving voice to Elders to share their experiences on topics like dispossession and dislocation, legal injustice and incarceration, disrespect and denial of culture, and a colonial education system among others. Relating to the Yarra Ranges region specifically, the report addresses First Peoples resistance to being left behind in political representation and in colonial institutions and society and yet still being treated as lesser. An example given by Uncle Jack Charles is that of Coranderrk, where commissioners visited in March to view the cemetery. “It was running successfully, Coranderrk. They were selling produce into the town of Healesville. So that’s how well Coranderrk was seen,” he said. “But it upset the local squatters that the blackfellas would have this ability to sell produce, cheese, milk, meat, bread, into the town of Healesville. “They said, ‘no, the blacks shouldn’t be doing this’. So they did all they could to make it look as though the blacks couldn’t work the land successfully.” This led to the parliamentary inquiry, where the residents of Coranderrk represented themselves in 1881 but just five years later the parliament did a backflip creating the Aboriginal Half-Caste Act 1886, which Uncle Jack Charles said put many First Nations people at risk of being hunted. The stolen generation, removal of young people from family and incarceration has left

Picture: YOORROOK JUSTICE COMMISSION generational trauma, as well as a disconnection from culture in what seemed to be a way of keeping children safe. Elders spoke of the need to improve First Nations culture and history in education to remove racism and stereotypes for future generations, as well as the overall impact education has on changing a young person’s life. In addition to the issues of concern raised by Elders, the first interim report, outlines the foundational work of the Yoorrook Justice Commission in establishing culturally appropriate and trauma-informed processes to ensure participant safety and wellbeing. Moving forward, the ultimate goal is to inform a treaty but to get there, priority areas have been identified, such as stopping child removals, reducing Aboriginal deaths in custody, focusing on a health-based model to help repeal public drunkenness laws and raising the age of criminal responsibility. Chair Bourke said the report reveals how important it is to address the issues raised by Elders and “our Elders deserve to see change in their lifetimes.” Although working to achieve this outcome as quickly and efficiently as possible, the commission has requested a two year extension until the final report needs to be submitted to ensure the work is detailed. “Establishing Australia’s first truth telling commission is highly complex. Yoorrook’s mandate spans more than two hundred years of historic and ongoing injustices,” Chair Bourke said. “Time is needed to ensure the best process,
Pandemic declaration extended Premier Daniel Andrews has made the decision to extend the pandemic declaration as part of the continued response to the coronavirus pandemic. The pandemic declaration will continue to apply to Victoria from 11.59pm Tuesday 12 July for three months. The pandemic declaration gives the Minister for Health the authority to make pandemic orders she considers reasonably necessary to protect public health after considering the Chief Health Officer’s advice and other relevant factors, including social and economic factors. “In making the declaration, I am satisfied on reasonable grounds that there continues to be a serious risk to public health throughout Victoria due to the coronavirus disease which requires continued public health and other protective measures to reduce the risk of transmission and hospitalisation,” Mr Andrews statement reads. “Recently, a number of modest and sensible changes to pandemic orders were made to allow Victorians to live safely with COVID-19 while reducing transmission and hospitalisations. This extended declaration will enable those key settings to remain in place over winter, protecting Victorians and our health system.” There are 94.6 per cent of Victorians over 12 years who have received two vaccine doses against coronavirus and over 68.4 per cent of Victorians over 16 years who have received a third dose.

VCAT appeal withdrawn
Giving youth their voice By Mikayla van Loon EACH’s Youth and Family Team are looking for young volunteers to join the small cohort of Your Voice Peer Leadership members, to give youth a voice in things that matter to them. Getting to be a voice for their peers at events, expos, at community events and within community groups, volunteers will be able to identify community needs, service gaps, educational needs, challenges, and opportunities. EACH Youth and Family Counselling Team Leader Warren Turner said it is important for young people to inform their services to ensure evolving needs continue to be met. “A young person’s lived experience can support us as professionals to respond to local young people facing a range of issues that can include concerns with mental health, managing relationships, bullying, grief and loss and self-esteem among other things,” he said. “Previous Peer Leaders from the Your Voice Leadership program have seen huge benefit and value in peers influencing positive change and addressing timely issues that affect young people and their community at large.” Knowing that young people can sometimes feel more comfortable sharing their ideas or opinions with their peers, Mr Turner said this is where the Your Voice approach comes in. “Some of the most effective change we have seen in addressing trends and issues at a community level for young people have come about through passionate young people who have made a decision to stand together with their peers on an issue,” he said. “This can be true with making change at a community level, with raising the awareness towards something important, or even celebrating all things wonderful about being
young and youthful.” Volunteers are trained in positive leadership, as well as more niche areas of engagement and it can be a way of networking with others in the industry or community. Mr Turner said by being a part of the program, participants are guided to find their passion and potential career path in things like psychology, social work, journalism, marketing, the arts, teaching and media just to name a few. “The Your Voice Leadership program can assist in career choice with young people getting involved in various aspects of project management, communication and marketing, along with the leadership roles that will assist story-telling and narrative interaction with others in various ways.” Leveraging the opportunity to showcase this work on a resume or with a potential employer is something Mr Turner said has been beneficial for participants in the past. “We have had previous Peer Leaders involved in a few of our programs that have gone on to paid positions in the sector, become leaders within these roles, all through volunteering with us at EACH.” The opportunity to volunteer is open to young people aged 12 to 25 years old who live, work or study in the local government areas of the Yarra Ranges, Whitehorse, Knox and Maroondah. Your Voice participants will need to be able to commit to six to 12 months with the program. “We are in the early stages of seeing this program come together, we look forward to meeting the new participants that will join with us in the Your Voice Leadership program, to be an influential voice both to and for their peers.”
Your voice for the Yarra Valley
The proposal had 49 objectors raising concerns on the visual and amenity impacts, traffic congestion and rubbish. The original permit was approved for the entire development six years ago after it was first rejected by council and went through VCAT to reach agreed upon conditions for the design. At the September council meeting, Cr Fiona McAllister said the proposed changes went against those conditions and council voted unanimously to reject the amendment. Cr McAllister has now confirmed the matter was expected to be heard at VCAT, however the applicant has since withdrawn their appeal and the original permit still stands. “As a result, the original permit (YR2014/1199) for this convenience restaurant remains, and the site use and development is permitted, but the revisions sought in 2021 have been refused,” she said.
There’s been a fresh update on the VCAT appeal for the proposed Healesville Macca’s project.

The VCAT appeal for the amended building permit application for the Healesville McDonald’s site has been withdrawn by the applicant following council’s decision to refuse the changes last year. The proposed revision of the approved layout sought to change the building and works, carparking and signage for a McDonald’s restaurant in Healesville, at 17-25 Maroondah Highway. It included the following – internal rearrangement of the restaurant, create a dual lane drive thru, increase the building envelope from 212.1 square metres to 377.68 square metres, increase the building height by 50 centimetres, move the loading bay, add two drive thru waiting bays and two new bike rails, inclusion of the walkway and footpath area on the northern and eastern side, update materials and finishes to align with McDonald’s branding and add floodlit business identification signage.

Ella’s prestigious honour By Renee Wood 1st Healesville Scout Group Venturer member Ella McNair is celebrating a great achievement after successfully received her Queen Scout Honour. It’s the first time in almost forty years for a member to receive the prestigious honour, following the last recipient Debra Hosking in 1983. Ella said her past scout leader David Blair (Strider) who was tragically killed in a skiing accident in 2019 was a big motivation towards her achieving this. “He always said when we were doing scouts ‘you got to do this, this is the end goal’ - that was really lovely having that motivation there,” Ella said. “At the end of the day I think that’s probably what pushed me over to end up getting the badge.” To receive the badge, a Venturer must complete 300 hours of service across two sections, completing 13 badges in the Venturer Award section and four in the Queen Scout section. The 18 year old first started working towards the badge when she was 15 in 2019. “A lot of the badge work’s done outside of Venturers itself… it’s up to the own individual whether they do it or not,” she said. Completing quests such first aid courses, volunteering with the local op shop and CFA, leadership courses and a arranging a major hike were part of the badges. Ella hopes her achievement will provide the younger cubs and scouts with a sense that it’s attainable. “I think being that big of a period of time people think it’s not achievable anymore, but I hope now that I’ve done it, the younger kids can look up to me in that aspect.” The honour is not only recognised within the scouting community, but it’s recognised world wide. It can also help with future career paths with different universities working in conjunction with Scouts.
Ella McNair has achieved the Queen Scout Honour. 282113 Latrobe University will automatically take a Queen Scout recipient through into a course and other universities such as ACU will add extra points to ATAR scores. “I don’t think people realise that it can help in that aspect.. a lot of people just think, why would I want to do that, it’s 300 hours, that’s a lot of time but I think in the long run it helps out a lot.” Ella hopes this will give her the upper hand towards reaching her dream study goals as she aspires to join midwifery studies at ACU. “That’s pretty competitive to get into, so we’ll see how that goes. Hopefully the extra points can boost me up enough to be able to get into that course or at least one similar.”
Ella first started as a cub in grade three and said there has been many highlights over the years being part of the organisation. “It’s taken me a lot of places - we’ve been to Tassie, South Australia… the highest mountain in Victoria - we’ve done quite a lot looking back over all the years. It’s been pretty awesome.” Ella believes it’s provided her with a sense of resilience and determination to pursue her goals. “With the persevering to get the award, I think it shows career wise that you’re able to put your time into doing something in the long run. “I just hope that being able to do this will take me further career wise.”

Mosaics artistic discovery at Healesville Sanctuary Meander past the mosaics along the Main Track at Healesville Sanctuary and you’re guaranteed to discover something new. The path, just past the Sidney Myer World of the Platypus centre, is aligned with 12 mosaics murals with each depicting a wildlife stamp created in a myriad of colours that look spectacular in the winter sunlight through the Sanctuary’s tree canopy. A koala, echidna and a magnificent lyrebird are among the striking animal designs. This part of the Sanctuary is the ideal space to pause and breathe in the fresh air while learning about the wildlife depicted, which is also a hit with curious youngsters. At the end of the mosaic mural trail, is the Australian Wildlife Health Centre (AWHC) where a dedicated team of vets, nurses and administration staff care for approximately 2,000 wildlife patients each year, as well as the animals that call the Sanctuary home. The veterinary team conducts cuttingedge wildlife conservation research, clinical wildlife medicine, wildlife rehabilitation, and plays a key role in wildlife disease surveillance. Sanctuary visitors can view the amazing work that goes on via the internal glass walls of the AWHC gallery space. Healesville Sanctuary Animal Health Life Sciences Manager Gerry Ross said the team has a diverse skillset. “The vets can be seen doing health checks, pre-release checks for the Threatened Species programs, as well as assessing illness,” Ms Ross said. “They are incredibly knowledgeable and adaptable because they work with animals as big as a kangaroo and as small as a microbat. I constantly admire the hospital team. Our days are always changing due to the nature of the work we do, and the team always gets the job done, while ensuring that every pa8 MAIL

Violet’s runway appeal By Callum Ludwig A Yarra Ranges resident recently finished in the top eight of 34 contestants at the National Final for the title of the 2022 Top Model Australia Model Search competition on Sunday 10 July. Violet Hall took to the runway at Q Events at 123 Queen Street, Melbourne with other aspiring models from around the country looking to launch their aspiring careers. Ms Hall said she was definitely very nervous about the event. “I feel like I ended up going straight into the national final with no preparation, but mostly I am very excited,” she said. “At first my agency reached out to me to see if I was interested in trying for the Miss World competition, and I gave it a go and went to the casting where the director asked if I would compete in the National Final. It’s an incredible opportunity, but I have no idea how this happened and I’m so thankful.” Ms Hall did some modelling as a child, before giving it up as she went through school and returned to the industry last summer, doing a short course with Tanya Powell Model Agency, which has given her more opportunities. Ms Hall said she had a number of ways she prepared for the event. “ I am making sure I’m looking after myself, drinking lots of water, getting exercise. I haven’t had a whole lot of time to prepare, because I’ve been doing a lot of short winter intensive courses at uni, but I have had a couple of private lessons with a coach and had been practising my walk every day,” she said. “My modelling instructor said to just give yourself a name, like pretend you are Gigi Hadid or something, and then you go back to who you are when you’re off the catwalk and it really helps you to get into a different mindset.
Violet Hall hits the runway with a flourish. You don’t get too nervous if you are a different person.” Beyond modelling, Ms Hall is studying a Bachelor of Science at Melbourne University and enjoys fashion, art and horse riding, having also tried her hand at a number of other activities and attractions in the Yarra Ranges. “I love living on a farm, I’ve lived on a cattle farm my whole life, I love the Yarra River and the snow and the views and all the people are really friendly. I work at the Alpine in Warburton and it’s just a lovely place to work, getting to meet all the locals and tourists,” Ms Hall said. “Lots of people know my parents, but those who know me know I’ve had my fair share of doing everything in the Valley. I’ve tried to take every opportunity from horse-riding to tennis competitions and I even played golf for a little while at the golf club.” The winner of the competition is the recipient of the trip of a lifetime to compete in London on the international stage, and walk-in London Fashion Week in September 2022.

Instagram foodie Jessica Nguyen visits the Yarra Valley By Callum Ludwig Instagram foodie and creator Jessica Nguyen partnered up in July with Lilydale Free Range Chicken to champion the work of regional producers and promote the new ‘Cooking with Lily’ hub. Jessica Nguyen visited Yarra Valley Truffles in Woori Yallock and made a delicious Gin Brined and Truffle Stuffed Whole Roasted Chicken with a Mushroom and Gin Gravy using a variety of local produce to a ‘Yarra Valley Taste Trail’ video. Ms Nguyen said she loves exploring a region like the Yarra Valley, seeking out the producers in the area and learning about the what, how and why behind what they grow or make. “I’m a big foodie and I love learning about the produce I’m cooking with and speaking with like-minded and equally as passionate people in the food industry,” she said. “When you love food, not only are you obsessed with cooking and eating it but you also want to know where it came from, who and how it was made, the whole process. It gives you a much better appreciation of what you’re cooking with and in turn, means you’ll go the extra mile to cook something delicious.” Ms Nguyen’s meal for four requires only 15 minutes of prep time and 20 minutes to cook. Owner of Yarra Valley Truffles Stuart Dunbar said he started the farm after experiencing a truffle mashed potato at a restaurant and was so impressed by their flavour and aroma. “In the orchard, our truffle dog Lani helps us find which ones are ready to harvest. Once she scents a truffle, she communicates with us in several ways as to its exact location and ripeness,” he said. The 2022 truffle season at Yarra Valley Truffles started on 21 June and interested foodies can follow their blog and find out more at www.yarravalleytruffles.com.au.

The hunting process is also quite exciting, where you get dogs or traditionally pigs to sniff them out for you. That’s why I love the truffle roast chicken recipe I shared for Lilydale as it’s the perfect winter

Ms Nguyen said she comes from a Vietnamese Australian family whose love language is food and their way of life. “While I learnt to cook as a kid through
my parents, it was only once I moved out of home that I began to cook a lot more, experiment and start to host my own dinner parties and really love the whole process of making a meal out of it,” she said. “Before this was my job, cooking was my way to unwind on weeknights when I had to cook dinner and then challenge myself with a new recipe on the weekend. It’s so surreal that it’s my full-time job now and I get to truly do what I love.” Ms Nguyen’s recipe (and others) can be found here: www.cookingwithlily.com.au/ recipes/truffle-roast-with-wild-mushrooms Tuesday, 12 July, 2022

Youth step up for events By Callum Ludwig Two young Yarra Ranges residents have been helping to organise events in the Yarra Ranges, getting young people back involved in the community after Covid-19. 19-year-old Chloe Booth and 15-year-old Rhiannon Carroll are a part of Yarra Ranges Council’s FReeZa Committee, ‘Defrosted Events’, a program giving young people the opportunity to organise a range of events from music and dance, to film, exhibitions, and gaming. Ms Carroll said FReeZa gives young people an opportunity to get a taste for community event management. “We get to plan, manage and carry out the event, with opportunities for young people to work with artists and productions companies with a number of areas to branch out,” she said. “It’s been great getting to know some new people, as well as getting some connections, being involved in the community and seeing what next fun thing I can be a part of.” Applicants aged 14 to 25 who live, study, work or play in the Yarra Ranges can join Defrosted Events for free, whether their interest is in the arts, event management or just putting on and being a part of events for young people. Ms Carroll said she really loves listening to music and enjoyed being a part of the many musical events arranged by FReeZa. “In February, we had something we called the All-Ages Tour with wo local artists and two headline Australian acts who came and per-
KIDS THESE DAYS formed loud rock music for the night, that environment was really my thing,” she said. “We welcome everyone, it’s such a supportive area and a great way to get some motivation. I’m really thinking of getting involved in the community later in life, I’ve been looking into local justice and community law, that’s what I want to do with my life.” Ms Booth is also a music enthusiast, being a performer herself, busking on the streets of the city while also taking on local gigs. She also joined in time for the All Ages Tour keen to see the popular Australian bands The Chats and The Teenage Joans perform at the event in Mooroolbark. Ms Booth said she loves music and she loves writing and performing songs. “That’s my jam, I’ve done a few gigs in the Healesville area and around Lilydale, and I find busking in the city super fun. It’s always the people that compliment my music or just say they appreciate it, which makes it all worth it,” she said. “There’s not that much money in busking at

Ms Booth said FReeZa has definitely given her opportunities to meet people in the music industry too. “It’s helped me get gigs, understand what happens in and behind the scenes of events, and a greater understanding of the industry,” she said. “It’s been great, after the past two years it’s been awesome to meet like-minded individuals to work together. Everyone’s got different skills and it’s amazing what we can do when
we all come together and work towards something.” There are three flexible options to choose from when deciding whether to join Defrosted Events: Join a committee for a specific event, helping to plan the event (2-4 hours per week for a limited time) Volunteer for a day event (hours will depend on the event) Join our core crew if you want to commit until the end of the year (2-4 hours per week) Contact a member of the Yarra Ranges Youth Team to find out more about the roles and opportunities with each event and about the roles and opportunities with each event and about Defrosted Events by calling 9294 6716 or email youth@yarraranges.vic.gov.au

Red Hot Summer Tour to arrive at Rochford Wines The Red Hot Summer Tour is heading to the iconic Rochford Wines in the Yarra Valley for the first time in October, with the addition of one final show on the Unfinished Business run by popular demand. The tour features an exciting line-up headlined by ARIA Hall of Fame inductees Hunters & Collectors, with special guests James Reyne, The Living End, The Angels, Baby Animals, Killing Heidi and Chocolate Starfish. Since the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR kicked off in February, events have been selling out around the nation and it’s no surprise why. The 2022 line-up was a special nod back to highly anticipated celebration of the 10th anniversary tour in 2020. Organisers are excited for the opportunity to bring the Unfinished Business run to Rochford Wines. “This is the first time we have taken the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR to the iconic Rochford Wines,” says promoter Duane McDonald. “It is fitting that we are wrapping up the 2022 tour with this announcement. It has been a spectacular run of shows. Thank you to everyone who has come out and shared in the music. We look forward to finishing off the 2022 RED HOT SUMMER TOUR in October.” Returning to the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR stage in 2022, Hunters & Collectors performances are a rare thing indeed and a huge coup for music fans. The legendary band disbanded over two decades ago and have only performed again a handful of times since – notably at The Sound Relief Concert in 2009 and a brief run five years ago. Banding together again specifically for the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR is apt, considering that Hunters & Collectors voracious live performances are so well suited in a festival environment. With smash hit songs such as When The River Runs Dry, Say Goodbye, Do You See What I See, True Tears Of Joy, Holy Grail and the anthemic Throw Your Arms Around Me, Hunters & Collectors have sold over one million albums spawning 19 hit singles.

From his time fronting the legendary Australian Crawl through to his successful solo career, James’ music is part of Australian history. As a prolific songwriter and strong vocalist, it’s no surprise that James has won accolade after accolade for his contribution to music. When Australian Crawl split in the mid1980s, James embarked on a successful solo career. James Reyne stands alone within an elite cluster of exclusive Australian performers. The Living End are considered Australian rock royalty, and for good reason. Their blistering live performances have seen them perform far and wide, and their reputation precedes them, they rock from the first note to the last. When The Living End first smashed onto the scene in 1997 with their double-A single Prisoner of Society and Second Solution, they embraced a new Australian sound and fans and critics sat up and listened. Since then, they have released seven studio albums, two of which have debuted at #1 on the ARIA Chart – four of those are
Platinum and two are Gold. They have been nominated for an incredible 27 ARIA Awards. When it comes to great Aussie rock, it doesn’t come much better than The Angels. It’s been over four decades since brothers Rick and John Brewster co-founded the iconic band and have penned some of Australia’s most anthemic tracks. The Angels are widely reputed for their killer live shows. With hits like Long Line, Marseille, Be With You, After the Rain, Shadow Boxer and Mr Damage to name a few. Audiences have always loved seeing The Angels on the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR and 2022 promises to really rock! Baby Animals burst onto the Australian scene in the 1990s with a solid rock force and a sassy lead singer. Suze DeMarchi proved that girls could rock just as hard as guys and the Baby Animals soon kicked some impressive rock butt with hits such as Rush You, Early Warning and One Word. The band scored themselves ARIA awards for best album and toured the globe. When they split in the mid-1990s they ended a special era of Australian music. The band’s recent reformation and inclusion again on the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR line-

Killing Heidi celebrated an auspicious anniversary in 2020, two decades since the release of their rock-pop debut Reflector. The smash hit singles – including Weir and Mascara – embedded the album in Australian music history, took out four ARIA awards and reached four times platinum status. It also catapulted Killing Heidi and its teen musicians – Ella and Jesse Hooper – into international superstar status. The Hooper siblings were revered for their songwriting prowess and their subsequent albums earned them critical acclaim. Chocolate Starfish are the epitome of a concert party! Fronted by the enigmatic Adam Thompson, the band is known for their high energy live performances. With songs like Four Letter Word, Mountain and You’re So Vain, Chocolate Starfish powered onto the Australian music scene in the 1990s and quickly secured themselves a space as an influential force. They produced two Top 10 albums and six Top 50 singles. Don’t miss this special final RED HOT SUMMER TOUR show at Rochford Wines Saturday 1 October.

Winegrape crush report The 2022 Australian winegrape crush is estimated to be 1.73 million tonnes, 2 per cent below the 10-year average and 13.5 per cent below the 2021 record crush of 2.01 million tonnes, according to the National Vintage Report 2022 released today by Wine Australia. The total estimated value of the 2022 crush at the weighbridge was $1.21 billion. The estimated value was a decrease of $335 million (22 per cent) compared with the record 2021 value, but $60 million more than in 2020 and $8 million higher than in 2018, a year when the crush was 2 per cent larger. The value reduction compared with 2021 was a result of the reduced crush, combined with a reduction in the overall average value. The reduction in crush compared with 2021 is the equivalent of approximately 190 million litres of wine – more than the most Australia ever exported to mainland China in a 12-month period. Wine Australia Manager, Market Insights Peter Bailey said the reduction in volume was likely to be the result of a combination of seasonal influences and adjustments made by winemakers to market conditions and winery production capacity limitations. “After a record high vintage in 2021, a lower yield in general was expected due to reduced cropping potential. This natural variation was compounded by a number of significant seasonal effects – in particular heavy widespread spring and summer rainfall across much of the eastern half of Australia and a number of significant hailstorms,” Mr Bailey said. “Apart from seasonal effects, the 2021–22
season was challenging as a result of winery production capacity limitations going into vintage following the record harvest in 2021, compounded by reduced exports to mainland China and severe shipping disruptions that caused delays and escalated costs. “Lack of winery production capacity, together with reduced exports and softening prices for red wines, may have resulted in wineries and growers reducing their overall production and/or intake of grapes – particularly red varieties. However, it isn’t possible for our survey to separate normal seasonal fluctuations in yield and weather events from active strategies to reduce intake.” The red winegrape crush was 959,131 tonnes, down by nearly 200,000 tonnes (17
per cent) compared with 2021, while the white winegrape crush decreased by 79,500 tonnes (9 per cent) to 775,129 tonnes, causing the share of white varieties to increase to 45 per cent of the total after falling to 43 per cent in 2021. “Demand is shifting back in favour of white varieties,” Mr Bailey said. “The average value for white winegrapes has increased every year since 2014, and in 2022 was the highest since 2008.” The average value across all purchases in 2022 decreased by 10 per cent to $630 per tonne. This decrease was made up of a 15 per cent decline in the average value of red winegrape varieties to $707 per tonne, partly offset by a 2 per cent increase in the average value
of white winegrape varieties to $548 per tonne. Mr Bailey noted that the average value for red winegrape varieties had declined for the past two years from a peak of $871 in 2020, but looking across a five-year perspective, it was higher in 2022 than it was in 2017 and 46 per cent higher than it was in 2011 (see Figure 2). “Experiences differed across the country but there is no doubt that some grapegrowers have had a very tough year, with seasonal conditions and profitability hit by the significant reduction in red winegrape prices combined with escalating costs including fuel, fertiliser and energy,” Mr Bailey said. “Looking forward from this vintage, growing demand through the joint strategies of market intensification and market diversification is the key to ensuring sustainable winegrape prices. Pleasingly, data is showing that there is demand for Australian wine in our major export markets such as the United States and the United Kingdom, particularly in premium price segments. There is also growth in a range of Asian markets, including Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand and Taiwan. Wine Australia is working with the sector to identify new opportunities in these markets and in others, as well as developing new products and channels within the Australian domestic market.” The full report is available from www. wineaustralia.com/market-insights/nationalvintage-report and all vintage survey statistics from the past eight years is available on Wine Australia’s dashboard, https://marketexplorer. wineaustralia.com/vintage-survey.
TAX TIME
Covid-19 expected to continue impacting taxes this year The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is anticipating that COVID-19 will continue to impact the income and deductions reported by taxpayers this tax time. “We know that many have faced significant challenges this year, and the ATO is here to help you get your tax right the first time,” says ATO assistant commissioner Tim Loh. Taxpayers should be aware of changes in circumstances that may affect what needs to be included as income, as well as what can be claimed as a deduction. These changes include receiving an income support payment and changing what can be claimed as a workrelated expense. “Tax time can be a smooth and easy experience if you know what income you must include and what COVID-19-related expenses you can claim in your tax return,” Mr Loh says. From July 1 2021, taxpayers who paid for a COVID-19 test for work-related purposes, such as to determine whether they can attend
Taxpayers should be aware of changes in circumstances that may affect what needs to be included as income and what can be claimed as a deduction. Picture: ISTOCK or remain at work, are now able to claim a deduction for the test. Taxpayers must have a record to demonstrate that they paid for the test - usually a receipt or invoice, though a bank or credit card statement or evidence from your employer can also be provided. Taxpayers are not able to claim for a test that was provided by their employer, or if their
employer reimbursed them for the cost, and only tests that are required for work-related purposes can be claimed. “If you purchased a COVID-19 test for a trip with your mates, you can’t claim a deduction,” says Mr Loh. Taxpayers may also be able to claim a deduction for the cost of protective items that protect against risk of illness or injury while performing work duties. “If you’re spending your working day in close proximity to customers and at risk of contracting COVID-19, you may be able to claim a deduction for protective items such as gloves, face masks or sanitiser,” Mr Loh says. “This will be most common in industries such as retail, cleaning and hospitality.” Taxes on different payments JobSeeker payments are taxable. This information will be automatically pre-filled in tax returns at the Government Allowances and Payments label when it is ready. If taxpayers choose to lodge before this information is
filled, it will need to be proved manually. Leaving income out of your tax declaration will delay your tax return being processed. The Pandemic Leave Disaster Payment is also taxable.

Boosting your immunity Now is the time to prioritise your immune system. It’s good to keep warm, get adequate rest and stay well hydrated but what if we’re finding we can’t shake off frequent illness? Are you over being sick? Catching a severe cold or flu can be debilitating and frustrating right? Tired, sore, headache, cough…. if you’re keen to make this a thing of the past, keep reading! There are effective methods to make your immune system more resilient. Imagine how you will feel knowing that your immunity is firing at full capacity warding off the bugs going ‘round so you can continue to live your life to the fullest. I say a big hello to returned vitality. Questions you may be asking right now: How do I strengthen my immune response? Why are over the counter (otc) supplements

· How long will it take/ how much will it cost?
To strengthen your immune response we need to know exactly why it’s encumbered. What is causing it to falter and not fire up
strongly and appropriately? Reasons may include unresolved infection, nutrient deficiency, food intolerances, medications, prolonged stress, digestive problems and environmental factors. A qualified naturopath / nutritionist is able to evaluate these and identify the root cause of the problem so we can target the deficient areas and supercharge your immune system. DIY shopping from the chemist / supermarket / online rarely works in these scenarios because the quality and formulations do not match your individual needs. Attending to your health in this way is guessing at what will help. It often prolongs illness and wastes precious time and money on products that fail to address the cause.
The length of time required to boost immunity depends on a variety of factors including your underlying health status, quality of diet and how consistent you are at taking remedies and making changes to diet and lifestyle. Most people who are determined to become well respond quickly. They resolve the underlying issues and boost their immune system. Remember, consulting a professional will focus on your needs and save you time and money, and help you achieve great results. We have some wonderful, experienced and highly knowledgeable natural health professionals in the Yarra ranges. If you’re keen to move forward in health and wellness, search them out and say hello to renewed vitality.
An unwise person starts building without costing first I hope last month went well for you although I guess it has brought some nervous wonderings with a change of government and uncertain economic times. Who would have thought we would see heavy mortgage rises and a lettuce over $10. That got me thinking of need for secure foundations in life and how we might bring about that security by making wise changes. That led me to think of a big mistake that a city made in ancient Babylonia when they decided to ignore the God who gave them the land to populate widely after the great flood. However almost to snub their God, they built a city with a tower supposedly reaching up into the heavens. In short, God sent language confusion so they couldn’t understand each other and were forced to leave for wider fields with those they understood – therefore populating far flung lands. !Bad news to ignore the original plan! Note; the Hebrew word for the town’s tower was ‘Babel’ (Meaning to

confuse). From there my mind drifted to the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and for some time I was lost in learning why and when it was built, when it started to lean, how they secured it and declared it safe in 2001. In brief – it was built as a free standing bell tower for an adjacent Cathedral in Tuscany Italy. Construction started in 1173 and it began to lean in 1178. It took 200 years to complete, due to one side sinking into soft foundation soil, rendering it 4.5mts from vertical. There were two major stoppages during this time

– the longest was for 100 years. However, after many years of ingenious earth works and although receiving 5 million visitors per year from 2001, it was closed again in 2013 for public safety. In my early counselling career, I joined a more senior experienced man to form a counselling service called ‘Changes’. He used to be on various popular Melbourne radio stations at different times, working within a rock and roll format. He would counsel live on air, up to 8 people each night, between songs, of many callers over a four hour show on Sunday nights. !Changes! Yes at every chance he would say to listeners at large, “If you have something in your life that needs to be fixed, give us a call during the day next week at ‘Changes’ and make a booking. Every day, everywhere, people are looking for changes; tree or sea, and in many cases hoping for that change to be funded by a big win at the Tatts shop. Sadly many people waste the modest sum
Delightful chance stumbling upon Changeling A review of Changeling by Philippa Gregory Some say that you can make your own luck by opening yourself to the world. Yet, some chance encounters are so delightful, you wonder whether they’re meant to happen. For example, this reviewer recently bumped into Changeling (2012) by English historical novelist Philippa Gregory. It’s the first of four books in the Order of Darkness series, specifically written for young adult readers. The synopsis begins: “Luca could not drag his eyes from this girl who had veiled her face from him, and hooded her hair so that he should never know what she looked like. In the golden light of the ris-

they have accrued for retirement, in yes, a gamble for the more. I saw a man come into a shop with his young son to buy Lotto tickets where I happened to be for other purchases. Jokingly but with purpose, with the dad engaged, I asked the young fellow, ‘Dad do alright, does he?’ Sadly we all laughed when the boy said, with an eye roll, “He never wins”. Some changes need professional help to navigate, and others need the ultimate and all powerful touch of God to bring about a deep and lasting change in a life. I have been privileged to work in both fields - good psychology and the touch of the tangible ever present healing hand of God on many lives. Give the Star-Mail a call for my number, and although retired from counselling, a coffee and a chat at a local cafe, might just help. Many Blessings, Graeme Dawson, Chaplain to Community

OPINION
Thor film lacks identity Thor: Love and Thunder Starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman and Christian Bale Rated M 3.5/5 Thor: Love and Thunder is another fun and moving comic book movie from New Zealand filmmaker Taika Waititi, but it’s also a film begging for its own identity. Thor (Chris Hemsworth), the Norse god of thunder, reunites with ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who now wields Thor’s magical hammer Mjolnir, to fight Gorr the God-Butcher (Christian Bale), who has a vendetta against all gods. Love and Thunder is full of Waititi’s From page 12 Romantic cliches, this reviewer prejudged. The book’s front cover features a dashing dark hero and a defiant-looking young blonde, both holding flaming torches, with a castle or fortress in the background. The synopsis concludes: “...Then he saw her bloodstained hands, and Luca realised that she was a thing of horror, a beautiful thing of horror, the worst thing between heaven and hell: a fallen angel.” Now we’re talking! This reviewer sat up straight to delve into the book, which is surprisingly exciting, atmospheric and informative. The story is set in 1453, not long after the capture of Constantinople – the heart of Byzantium and the centre of the Church in the east – by the Ottoman Empire. Fearing the “unbeatable army of heretics and infidels” will attack Rome as their next target, the Holy Father sets up the Order of Darkness to defend Christendom. Recruited by the Order, 17-year-old Luca is sent to the “very frontier of good and evil”
signature quirky pathos. Thor has a satisfying emotional arc of opening his heart to connection again and being a hero to help people – especially children – not just for the glory.
to “record the end of times”. His task is to “explore the mysteries, the heresies and the sins, to explain them where possible, and defeat
Portman conveys strength and fragility as Jane, with Mjolnir granting her godly powers but robbing her of life. Russell Crowe hams it up spectacularly as Zeus, and Tessa Thompson serves as something of a sassy straight-man as Valkyrie, the leader of New Asgard, Love and Thunder is full of gags, but most are organic to the narrative, and the third act has a brilliant Pleasantville-like aesthetic, in which Gorr’s shadow-realm is black-andwhite except for his eyes and the lustre of the heroes’ weapons. Regrettably, Love and Thunder dips in quality when following the well-worn Marvel template.
them where we can”. This medieval version of Fox Mulder of The X-Files is aided by Freize, who, like Sam-
The plot is propelled by yet another hunt for Macguffins (something that motivates the plot but otherwise has little to no importance). Much of the second act feels redundant, and the action sequences, while acrobatic and colourful, carry little impact or tension. Love and Thunder also thoroughly muddies Thor’s identity as a god: the series can’t decide if his powers come from his weapon Mjolnir or not. Thor: Love and Thunder is an entertaining, affecting romp full of Waititi charm and outlandish humour, burdened by saggy, Macguffin-stuffed pacing, and is playing in most Victorian cinemas. - Seth Lukas Hynes wise Gamgee from The Lord of the Rings, is fiercely loyal and brilliant with food. They are joined by Isolde, who is desperate to reclaim her rich inheritance, and her companion Ishraq, a Moor trained in medicine, fighting skills and other disciplines. Together, they confront the unknown in the Abbey of Lucretili, where the Lady Abbess is accused of practicing witchcraft, driving the nuns there to madness with strange visions, sleepwalking, and bleeding wounds in their hands and feet. Next, in the small village of Vittorito, they meet a beast that is supposedly a werewolf. The locals can’t wait to kill it, but to find out the truth requires much courage and diplomacy. Changeling is a thrilling and entertaining read, based on solid research on the foods, foods, costumes, behaviours, mannerisms, social norms, and beliefs and superstitions of the Middle Ages. It encounters readers to reflect on our presumptions of the “other”, what we don’t know or understand, and how we choose to respond and react.

Healesville Sanctuary has welcomed a pair of eastern quolls to the family.
Pictures: ZOOS VICTORIA
The two quolls are different in colour, one black with white spots, the other fawn-like with white spots.
Quolls find sanctuary Healesville Sanctuary has welcomed the arrival of a new native duo who have taken up residence in the Nocturnal House. The two 12-month-old female eastern quolls - one black with white spots and the other fawn with white spots - are from a sanctuary in Tasmania where the species still survives in the wild. Sadly, eastern quolls are now extinct on mainland Australia.
Healesville Sanctuary mammal keeper Madeleine Jane said the white spots on the quolls’ coat help these animals camouflage in the wild. “The pair have been settling in well to their new home. We often see them exploring along the ground or quickly moving through the trees,” Ms Jane said. “We have set up a bark hammock area which they absolutely love. While they also have the

SPORT
Tough contests for Pigs By David Ball Football Yarra Glen travelled to Gembrook to take on a top 3 opponent. The day didn’t start well with 5 players from the selected team unable to take the field. Last-minute call-ups from the already depleted reserves were required. Despite this Yarra Glen teamed well early in the first quarter, with Jason Godfrey winning in the ruck and midfielders Billy Gardner and Sam Horsley giving the forwards early chances. Callum Morison was running amok up forward, taking 3 strong marks and converting 3 for goals. Gembrook replied late in the quarter to take a 4-point lead into quarter time. The early intensity and tackle pressure from the River Pigs started to wane and Gembrook was finding space to run into. Quick ball movement made it hard for the Yarra Glen defence and Myles Wareham was finding space and marking strongly and converting for 5 goals. Whilst Yarra Glen competed hard they were unable to maintain possession as they went forward. Gembrook rebounded well with the depleted River Pig lineup going down 15.13 to 3.4 The best players were Sam Horsley, Richard Wyles, Charlie Wood, Richard Gurney, Billy Gardner, Jimmy Marks and Callum Morison with 3 goals. With the Yarra Glen reserves having to provide 5 players at short notice to the seniors, they did well to start the game with 17 players. They were really competitive in the first quarter with Zac and Nate Capuano and Brendan Davis winning plenty of the ball in the midfield. At quarter time Gembrook held a 3.1 to 0.1 lead, but in general play, Yarra Glen had their fair share of it. As a few players suffered injuries in the second quarter the lack of numbers made it difficult for the Yarra Glen boys to contain their stronger and more experienced opponents. Gembrook had some strong marking senior players up forward and with ample supply, they were able to convert easily to
amass a 32.12 to 0.3 victory. The best players for Yarra Glen were Zac Capuano, Nate Capuano, Brendan David, Liam Dwyer, Keith Gerovasilis and Jacob Reddaway. Netball Yarra Glen A Grade took on sixth-placed Gembrook. In the first quarter, they were outplayed by their lower-ranked opponents to be down 6-9 at the first break. From the second quarter on Yarra Glen worked their way on top, linking up well and outscoring their opponents in each quarter to build a 39-28 victory. The best players were Peta Fay, Chelsea Birchall and Steph Gibbs (28 goals). B Grade, sitting third on the ladder faced the fifth-placed Gembrook outfit. It was a tight encounter with neither side able to forge ahead. At halftime Yarra Glen led by just 1 goal. They produced a great 3rd quarter to open up a 5-goal lead, eventually running out victors, 33- 29. Best were Kayla Collins, Kim Williams and Meaghan Carter C Grade had a tough assignment against the third-placed Gembrook outfit without their full-strength lineup. Only 2 goals down at quarter time, they were showing plenty of spirit. The home team lifted in the second and extended the lead to 8. Whilst Yarra Glen kept pace with their opponents throughout the balance of the game they were unable to close the gap and went down 27-39. The best players were Alex Bray, Sarah Orlandi and Jackie Gardner. D grade jumped their opponents in the first, taking a 12-4 lead. Gembrook worked their way into the game, reducing the lead by 1 in the second and to 5 by 3 quarter time. Yarra Glen steadied in the last and held on to a 5-goal lead, winning 26-21. The best players were Sarah Orlandi (20 goals), Kim Christian and Molly Kehoe Next week Yarra Glen hosts the strong Berwick teams whilst the footballers will enjoy a bye.

Sanders tops the desert By Callum Ludwig Three Bridges resident Daniel Sanders has returned to racing with a big win at the Hlergest desert race in Australia. Mr Sanders claimed victory in the Hattah Desert Race on Sunday 3 July after a weekend’s worth of racing in the desert by the Victorian border to New South Wales. Mr Sanders said it was really good to come back with a win. “Having just recently come back from the injury in the Dakar this year and had a lot of operations and a lot of time off the bike, my first goal was to get back fit and healthy for this race,” he said. “It was a pretty big challenge, I probably had five weeks back on the bike and made it happen, it’s definitely a good feeling to win the race for the second time after six months off the bike, to win that event straight off the couch pretty much is a big accomplishment and took a lot of hard work.” Mr Sanders ended up with a fractured elbow and a bone block put in after multiple shoulder dislocations following a big crash seven days into the 2022 Dakar Rally in Saudi Arabia. He was sitting in the third position before the accident. Mr Sanders said he felt well set up after claiming first in the prologue and then a Top 10 shootout, which determines riders starting position in the race. “There are 404 drivers that qualify for the race and so I got to start in pole position, which was really cool to start off the race on the nice fresh sand track,” he said. “The best thing about being first is you get the advantage of it being smooth compared to you later on, and it’s a really flat track early on. Your max speed is about 168 kilometres an hour with an average of about 68 for the total
time, so it’s a pretty fast-flowing race through the trees and desert there.” The Hattah Desert Race is an eight-lap race that goes for about four hours at a total of about 296 kilometres. It is often called the ‘four hours of hell’ and is widely regarded as the most challenging off-road race in Australia. Mr Sanders said it is probably the toughest race in Australia for fitness and strength. “With each lap, the track gets harder and harder to race because it gets rougher as there are more bikes and more traffic, with deeper holes and more warps in the surface, it becomes very technical in deep sandy conditions,” he said. “When you begin passing the slower riders it’s also a challenge because we lapped 30 or maybe 40 positions, so we have to try and pass a lot of the riders twice for the whole race.” Mr Sanders finished the race two minutes and almost 32 seconds ahead of his nearest rival Husqvarna Motorcycles’ Todd Waters to secure the victory for his sponsor GasGas. Mr Sanders said the body was definitely sore after the race, but has eyes for the future now. “I knew I had to save as much energy as I could for the last hour to finish strong but the elbow was really sore after the surgeries and it was only like seven weeks ago I got the pins and wires taken out,” he said. “It was pretty recent and is pretty fragile, but I want to get my elbow and shoulders strong again, and back to 100% strength. The next race I will do will be in Morocco (Rallye du Maroc 2022) from the end of September to the start of October. It’ll be my first race since Dakar and I hope to win it, and then begin preparing for the Dakar next year.”

Warburton Golf scores Murch claims Bag Day By Ron Hottes
Warburton Golf Club results.
Picture: ON FILE
Wednesday 6 July, Stroke and M.McGrann Bag-day: This event is sponsored by Your Loyal Scribe! As you may gather, I don’t like missing these days, ( 1st Wednesday of every month). I had no choice this month as I tested positive for Covid on Wednesday morning! So, you may also suspect that, whilst sitting at home--isolating---I was waiting to see the results of a rare “bag-day” when I was absent! So, here they are. Our Club Manager, David Murch, won the day with a Nett 70. But he only grabbed the first prize voucher on a countback, from the in-form Steuart Hawke, also recording a 70. Not surprisingly, balls got all the way down to 75. NTP winners for the day were Noel Cross (3rd), Barry Maltman (9th) Dave Murch (12th) and to Alan Johnson who in recent times appears to “own” the 15th!
Saturday 9 July: On a Saturday when the weather and the conditions continue to make good golf challenging, there were some better-than-average results posted. The best of these went to my master’s pennant link man, Barry Maltman, who is starting to challenge Steuey as the “form player” at the Club. Barry recorded a solid 37 points to take home the day’s best prize. But he did not have it all his own way, as that score only allowed him to win on a countback! Our daily runner-up, Michael Pinkster, also posted a 37, but his second nine could not match Barry’s! Congrats to both men! The ball rundown only extended to 34, meaning there were plenty of results in the mid-30’s. NTP’s were won by Rod Kempton (3rd), P.K. (5th), Alan Johnston, who’s transferred his NTP ownership to the 9th, Pat O’Regan (12th) and to Clint Toohey (15th).
