Monique is top Aussie By Abbey Cannan Noosa’s own Monique Riley Schroeder has been crowned as Miss Universe Australia 2022. The 27-year-old actress, model and executive assistant competed for the national title with 28 beauties from across the country, and will now prepare to represent Australia at the 71st Miss Universe pageant. This year’s event, held on Friday 9 September at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast was the first live national final for Miss Universe Australia since 2019. Monique, who has a degree in creative industries from the Queensland University of Technology, said taking out the crown was a surreal moment. “It hasn’t really hit me yet and I feel like the same person obviously, but the opportunities that have already started presenting themselves are insane,“ she said. “It’s a crazy feeling and it’s not something I expected, but you just have to take everything as it comes. This week I’ll be on the Today Show. “As the winner of Miss Universe Australia you get given an apartment in Melbourne for the year to live in, so I’ll be moving half my stuff there because a lot of our meetings and fittings happen there.

Creek of concern By Margie Maccoll

12497020-DL22-21

“A bit disappointed,“ was how Cr Amelia Lorentson greeted a council staff report she said failed to answer questions on Burgess Creek she asked of staff three months earlier, sparking a robust debate at Monday’s general committee meeting and concluding with her apology. On 16 June Cr Lorentson asked staff to report back on a range of issues stemming from residents’ concerns about wastewater and stormwater flows into Burgess Creek, its impact on the environment and public health risk. Questions focused on erosion at the creek mouth, outflows and water quality from the Wastewater Treatment Plant and stormwater discharging into Burgess Creek, and stormwater management and infrastructure for the Burgess Creek Sub-catchment. Also requested was information on downstream erosion of

dunes and beaches resulting from stormwater and wastewater flows as well as funding options and solutions. Staff said they had been undertaking a significant body of work, engaging Unitywater, visiting its monitoring sites and undertaking an overall investigation of the shire catchment in collaboration with Healthy Land and Water with interest from the bush care program. Council heard staff proposed the infrastructure team look at erosion issues from all creeks throughout the shire costed as a $200,000 piece of work that hadn’t yet been budgeted for. Officers said the issues at Burgess Creek were complicated by a lack of formal pedestrian access with informal access via trails adding to the erosion problem, which would be investigated to determine “natural solutions“ to reduce the impact to dunes. They agreed with Cr Joe Jurisevic when he

suggested work on beach access points was already covered under the foreshore management plan, but said Burgess Creek required more work because of the way it meandered north and south depending on storm activity and stormwater runoff. One officer said universities were involved in monitoring the creek’s behaviour in response to wave action and storm events and their findings would inform management actions. However, Cr Lorentson said her questions were confined to Burgess Creek, not the entire catchment, and she had expected the matter “be treated with urgency and real conviction“ which she identified to be lacking in the report. “My motion raised residents’ concerns about damage happening at the foreshore at Burgess Creek and concerns regarding discolouration of water flow and the impacts on coastal ecosystems,“ she said.

“Residents believe that treated wastewater and stormwater flowing in the creek is a health risk.“ Cr Lorentson said council’s own website and health warning signs at the beach supported their concerns there was a risk. This report understates the link between stormwater and effluent discharge into Burgess Creek as a major cause of erosion happening at Burgess Creek, she said. It overstates foot traffic as the primary cause of erosion. “The report fails to provide what I requested - data and information - Unitywater figures on the amount of wastewater discharged, the amount of stormwater being discharged, how much effluent, what are acceptable levels,“ she said. “Where is this information? Why is it not provided? We can’t fix a problem unless we understand or investigate the cause.“ Continued page 3

Noosa Council has negotiated a deal with Surf Lifesaving Queensland to provide lifeguard services across Noosa beaches for the next five years at $1.69 million per annum, with an option to extend the deal for a further five years. Under the agreement, lifeguard services will be delivered to beaches from the September to May season at Noosa Main and West beaches, Peregian village, Peregian north, Sunshine and Sunrise beaches, with increased services to most beaches. The amount will be subject to annual Fair Work Commission increases on labour and CPI increases on equipment. At its general committee meeting on Monday, Cr Amelia Lorentson asked, considering the annual report statistics, if the amount negotiated was enough. According to the annual report, lifeguards performed 260 rescues, 59,000 preventative measures, 6700 first aid treatments, 87,000 local law interactions and attended to more than 3.6 million beach goers, she said.

Cr Lorentson said the figures reflected the efforts of lifeguards alone and did not take into account the work of volunteer lifesavers. Council’s officer said in negotiating terms to determine the best service levels with Surf Lifesaving Queensland they went through each beach, each location and each season. He said the option decided on ticked all the boxes in mitigating the risk to safety on the beach and the financial risk to ratepayers. The officer said the agreement was more comprehensive, incorporating what would be expected in a modern employee agreement, including codes of contact and zero tolerance bullying. He said lifeguards had an obligation to undertake local law engagement which provided them powers to enforce laws such as dealing with dogs off leash “to an extent“. Cr Lorentson said in the past year, records showed there had been two drownings - one at Noosa and one on the eastern beaches - but no lives had been lost between the flags. The agreement will be ratified at council’s ordinary meeting on Thursday evening.

“Whatever life throws at us, our individual responses will be all the stronger for working together and sharing the load.“ — in 2011 at the Queen’s Ireland state banquet It’s fitting Her Majesty should have the first and last word. The United Kingdom has lost a Queen and so, of course, have we. She has been a constant in my entire life and for all or most of the lives of everyone in Noosa. Her loss comes not as a surprise but as a shock. The world has tilted slightly. She has been a force for good, a peacemaker, a voice of reason. Without question, she stepped up to the plate. We wish her successor well. What will our new Monarch bring to this country? His passion for the environment will be shared by many in Noosa. Will it bring fresh calls for a republic? The world has lost a woman who understood that the best lives are lived in the service of others, as she said herself. “Over the years, those who have seemed to me to be the most happy, contented and fulfilled have always been the people who have lived the most outgoing and unselfish lives.“ — in her 2008 Christmas broadcast “To be inspirational you don’t have to save lives or win medals. I often draw strength from meeting ordinary people doing extraordinary things: volunteers, carers, community organisers and good neighbours; unsung heroes whose quiet dedication makes them special. They are an inspiration to those who know them.” - At the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, 2016

Creek issues flowing on From page 1 Cr Lorentson said council needed to know what levels were permitted under the environmental authority, were the levels good enough and was this best practice. We’re potentially tolerating activity and practices that are compromising the environment, she said. An officer explained it had taken time to obtain information and the issues were integrated. She said communicating with Unitywater had been “very constructive“ and officers had come a long way in understanding the history and legacy of the matter. Unitywater’s Water Matters plan was an important first step in planning for Burgess Creek, she said. The officer said Unitywater was well aware of community concerns and council had asked them to slow their Water Matters proceedings in order to organise a community consultation process early next year with a community forum to allow community input into management options. Council also heard Unitywater had agreed just Monday morning to provide the data requested. When Cr Jurisevic asked why the questions had morphed into something different from

what was requested, staff replied that four to five management issues were involved including the way stormwater was managed across the catchment. The Burgess Creek catchment covers roughly 545 hectares, draining from the back of residential developments in Noosa Head, through bushland and community facilities near Eenie Creek Road, and then through a Council-managed Bushland Reserve and National Park to discharge directly into the Coral Sea at Sunshine Beach. Officers said work was being done to determine the scope of the project and steps had been made to involve the Peregian Beach digi-

tal hub in establishing remote sensor water monitoring and plans mooted to establish a community advisory group. Cr Lorentson thanked officers for clarifying the situation and apologised for her initial response. She said there were two-three questions that needed to be answered. Are we OK with Unitywater discharging stormwater and treated sewage into our creeks and beaches? Are we OK with current practices? If it was OK and met recycled water criteria, we should be having a conversation about reusing that water, she said.

Noosa’s Monique Riley is crowned Miss Universe From page 1 “I’ll be living between Melbourne and Sydney and my walking coach is in Queensland, so I’ll travel between the three states until January when we go overseas to represent Australia internationally. “Very busy from here on in.“ Monique said taking part in Miss Universe Australia was one of the best experiences of her life. “You get to meet so many incredible women along the way,“ she said. “The program as a whole is such an incredible program that allows people to really get out of their comfort zone and do stuff that you would never do if you hadn’t entered. “People often have a certain idea about Miss Universe and just see it as a pageant, but everyone who runs this program has transformed it to so much more than that.“ Monique’s mum, Tanya Taylor, who’s a part of the team at Select Noosa Real Estate, said she was so proud of her daughter. “I’m extremely excited for her. All the hard work that she’s been putting in over the years has paid off,“ Tanya said. “She’s been working really hard since finishing uni. She moved to Sydney to try and secure acting jobs and get into that sort of world. “Through hard work and determination she’s kicked a pretty major goal that will

hopefully open up a lot of doors for her.“ Monique spent her early years as a student at Sunshine Beach State School and Good Shepherd Lutheran College. “I spent Monday to Friday with Mum in Noosa and then on the weekends I would go to my Dad’s house on the farm,“ Monique said. “Growing up in Noosa was a very relaxed, chill lifestyle and I think that did help throughout the Miss Universe program too because I was used to being able to sit back and take everything as it comes. “Transitioning through to the Miss Universe pageant, my photoshoot was on the beach, so I felt like I was back home in Noosa. “My first official swimsuit photoshoot was taken on Gold Coast beach, and my first photoshoot on Saturday morning as Miss Universe Australia was in the sand, with no shoes on, in an insane dress, with the new crown. “It was really cool how they intertwined it back into my first official photoshoot.“ Pageant Circle said Australia had won the Miss Universe pageant just twice with Kerry Anne Wells in 1972 and Jennifer Hawkins in 2004. The Miss Universe Australia 2022 Top 5 included first runner-up Annalise Dalinis, second runner-up Ciara Grehan, third runnerup Hanni Rose Howe and fourth runner-up Alana Deutsher-Moore.

Her Majesty walks through Martin Place in Sydney during the 1980 Royal Tour.

Pictures: ROB MACCOLL

In 2002 the Queen visited Cairns where she attracted the attention of an Army sniffer dog.

Photographing The Firm By Rob Maccoll My earliest memory of the Queen is as a young kid growing up in Townsville in 1954. I can just remember being pushed to the front of the crowd lining the road and this big black car driving by with a white glove waving from the back seat. In 1963 I stood with thousands of school kids in the baking sun at the Ekka to get another brief glimpse of the white glove. This time it was in the back of a Landrover Then in 1977 I was working as a cameraman for ABC-TV and filming from the top of a huge scaffold as the Royal yacht Britannia sailed down the Brisbane River accompanied by hundreds of small boats. The ship berthed right in front of my camera and there it was again waving from the deck. I then moved to Sydney and worked as a stills photographer for the Australian Information Service which was the Federal Government’s media organisation. Part of my job was being an official photographer for visiting Heads of State and for Royal Tours - the Royal Family. An awesome job with travel on VIP jets, five star accommodation and no stopping at traffic lights. So it was no surprise to see the white glove on several occasions during the ’80s. Her Majesty was a dream to photograph. She knew exactly what was needed and would pause and chat and smile. As long as you stayed within the brief: don’t get in the way, no pictures while eating, don’t speak until spoken

to, just take a couple of images and never ask for just one more. I saw the glove several more times when she visited Queensland for CHOGM at Coolum and to meet the victims of the 2011 floods in Brisbane. I also spent time with Prince Philip when he came out as patron of the Duke of Edinburgh Award. This was a much more low-key affair with just a few officials travelling with the Prince. Because I had to sign the Official Secrets Act I can’t say too much, but a good time was had by all and he did enjoy a cold beer on a hot day. The future King also popped up in front of my camera a few times. One notable occasion was just before he went off to marry Princess Diana. He’d been travelling around the country playing polo and was being followed by 30 Fleet St photographers keen to get the first photo of him falling off his horse. It was the final day of the tour, the final polo match and the final chukka. The Pommie snappers had given up and gone to the bar and I was loading film into my camera when I heard a roar, looked up and saw Charles falling off his horse. He wasn’t happy with the picture splashed across page one of all the world’s newspapers and his mum rang him and banned him from riding until after the wedding (so I was told by one of his aides). I really hope he’s taken over the white glove. I’d love to see it again.

The Queen, the King and I By Phil Jarratt Unlike some of my media colleagues, I never got to exchange pleasantries with the Queen, although I did see her in the flesh (no disrespect) a couple of times when we were both considerably younger. The first occasion doesn’t even really count as I have no recollection of it, being only twoand-a-half at the time, but on 11 February 1954, the young Queen and her Prince (after whom I had been named by my royalist mum) came cruising past the front gate of our crumbling - but bedecked with Union Jacks – old weatherboard house on the Princes Highway north of Wollongong, NSW, while my mother and two older sisters frantically waved their little flags from behind the paling fence. Like I said, it doesn’t really count, but I was there, held aloft by my mum as the royals drove by in their plush convertible, and mum always swore that the Queen of England smiled at her little Philip. If that was true, it certainly didn’t turn me into a monarchist, although the next close encounter well might have. The Queen seemed to have weathered well when we next met, she by now an old hand at the smiling and waving game, and me a fledgling cadet journalist with the Sydney Morning Herald, sent out with a vast tribe of more senior colleagues to perhaps capture a snippet of “colour” during the royal tour of autumn 1970. I can’t exactly remember the particular occasion – I think it may have been an investiture at Sydney’s Government House – but I clearly remember my great good luck in snaring an aisle seat. When we all stood as Her Majesty made her stately way down the centre aisle, I recalled the famous words recited by our royalist former prime minister Robert Gordon Menzies: “I did but see her passing by, yet I shall love her till I die.” I swear she glowed as she passed not more

The royals on their way to the ‘Gong, 1954. than a couple of metres away. Cynical even at that early stage, I put it down to some sort of trick lighting, or maybe a small torch in her bodice (again, no disrespect) but it was truly amazing. Here endeth the true story of my personal relationship with the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Picture: NSW ARCHIVES And while the day I saw her glow did not result in some sort of evangelical transformation into a monarchist (in fact I was a cardcarrying republican for a while) it did create a soft spot in my heart for Her Maj, who, unless you live in a padded cell, you would realise by now was deservedly loved by her subjects

around the world. I also at times felt a little compassion for her plight – all that waving and smiling, the wimpy sons, the horsey daughter, the increasingly strange husband, the dramas and disasters of Diana, Andrew and now Meghan. She remained a stoic figure through it all, and I doubt that any person of goodwill could be anything but saddened by her passing. And now we have Charles, who used to be considered a fruitcake for his beliefs in organic farming, saving trees, restoring old buildings instead of knocking them down, his only saving grace the good works of his Prince’s Trust. But now he is completely of the moment, and I hope against hope that his willingness to speak out for his beliefs is not tempered by his new responsibility. I have but one Charles story. It was the occasion of the Royal Command Performance of the Russell Crowe film Master and Commander at a Leicester Square theatre in 2003, and somehow I had secured a stalls ticket. That very morning the London tabloids had come out with the most outrageous and tawdry sex scandal front page implicating Charles in some sort of activity that would not have pleased Mama. It was feared that he and Camilla would not show, but after a 45-minute delay, security bods started darting around the theatre and an expectant murmur filled the gallery above us. As the heir to the throne appeared and took his seat, a well-dressed woman sitting in front of me stood and turned to the gallery and shouted, “We love you Charles!” Within moments everyone in the theatre stood and joined in the chorus of reassurance, yes, your correspondent included. Then we remained standing to sing God Save The Queen before the parting of the curtains. I’m sure most of the people in that theatre still feel the same way. Me, I’ll just wish the new King well.

Kin Kin recalls Coronation By Nick Thompson It was Coronation Day 1953 and the small hinterland town of Kin Kin was celebrating. As the locals formed up for the parade down Main Street, a group of five men were taken aside for a photograph. After a bit of local historical research, we know now just how special that picture is. One of these Kin Kin men fought a war in Africa on horseback. Another battled his way ashore at Gallipoli and endured the nightmares of trench warfare in France and Belgium. Yet another flew in Second World War flying boats and, even when this photograph was taken, the youngest had just returned from serving in Korea in the age of atomic bombs and rockets. Between them they went to war under two Queens and two Kings. Charlie Vines, in the flat cap on the far left, served with the Australian forces when Queen Victoria was still on the throne. He fought during the second Boer War (1899-1902) in South Africa. It was one of the last wars where horses provided the principal form of land transport. Next to him, in uniform, is Dave Palmer, who served in the Second World War (1939 -1945) when King George VI had the keys to Buckingham Palace. In the middle, wearing a suit, is Arthur Glasby, who served in the First World War (1914-1918) when the forces swore allegiance to King George V. Arthur was with the Anzacs and was wounded at Gallipoli but recovered and then fought on the Western Front. He returned to Australia where he took up a soldier’s block of land near Kin Kin. His family still farms in the area. Next to Arthur is Dudley Lister, who served

That conflict was still active at the time this photo was taken. Commonwealth forces in Korea are said to have marked the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II by firing red, white and blue coloured smoke shells at the enemy.

Ern cruises into his 100th By Abbey Cannan Receiving one of the last letters from the Queen before her death was a touching moment for Tewantin resident Ern Jackson on his 100th birthday. It’s yet another remarkable occasion to add to his century of life lived to the fullest. The great-grandfather with an adventurous spirit first jumped out of an aeroplane at the age of 95, conquered the Kokoda Trail at the age of 85, and walked across England at 84. Steve Jackson, 76, said they were joined by 30 family members to celebrate his father’s birthday with a Noosa River cruise on Saturday 10 September. “I’ve got cards for him from the Premier, the Governor, the Prime Minister, the Queen... that’s going to be a bit sad,“ Steve said. “We also celebrated during the week at his home in Hibiscus Noosa Outlook Retirement Resort. “He was very excited. We walked into the hall and there were about 100 people and they all stood and gave him a standing ovation. “It brought a tear to the eye. The speeches started and the microphone was passed around and Dad knew everyone’s names. He’s quite a stunning man.“ Ern, who has lived in the Noosa area for about 30 years, is a very fit 100-year-old. “I’m quite proud of his fitness and everything else that goes with him,“ Steve said. “He’s very adventurous and has lived a very healthy life as far as his dietary things are concerned. He never smoked or drank. He’s always been very conscious of what he eats. “He was born in 1922 in Sydney and he’s done lots of things since. “He was in the Surf Club as a younger man, he was involved in the Boy Scouts as a leader. “He worked for the railways in a workshop and during the war he was maintaining the ships.

My parents bought a dairy farm. A very clever man.“ At 96, Ern convinced three generations of his family to go skydiving together at Christmas time. In the air with him at the time were 13-yearolds Amy and Aiden, and Michelle and Dan. “I didn’t jump, they can have that,“ Steve said.

“Anything he’s chosen to do, I have no concerns whatsoever. In about two weeks’ time he’s going on a train trip by himself to visit different dinosaur exhibitions.“ There’s no stopping Ern, who starts each day in Tewantin with early morning walks at 4.30am, followed by weightlifting exercises and a cold shower. The music and jigsaw puzzle enthusiast is proof that life is a gift that keeps on giving.

Drive pathway concepts Council is developing concept designs for a new pathway along Noosa Drive and is now seeking feedback from the community. Mayor Clare Stewart said the proposed Noosa Drive Pathway was a key link between the popular tourist attractions of Noosa Heads and Noosa Junction. “The proposed pedestrian and cycle pathway link between Noosa Lions Park and Sunshine Beach Road will significantly improve the connectivity between these popular locations by providing a safe and attractive alternate transport option for walkers and cyclists,” Cr Stewart said. “The existing characteristics of this section of Noosa Drive, including the abundant tree cover, varying gradient and existing walking and cycling sections means there are options for different treatments along the pathway including sections of boardwalk, separated pathways and areas that will be shared by both cyclists and pedestrians.” The concept design focuses on safety and amenity by including lighting along the pathway, designated viewing areas and platforms,

Artists impressions of Noosa Drive pathway design concepts. shelters and rest stops, water stations and raised pedestrian crossings. The pathway route was selected from five possible options based on safety, gradient, connecting features, navigation, and constructability. It was also identified as being in the top 25 priority projects for delivery under

the Noosa Cycling and Walking Strategy and Implementation Plan. “Previous community consultation has identified streetscaping and landscaping enhancements, lighting and easy access for all users as important to the next stage in development of this pedestrian and cycle pathway,” Cr Stewart said. “This project also aligns with Noosa’s Transport Strategy objective to encourage more people to cycle and walk rather than use their car and builds on consistent efforts by Council to deliver the high-priority route cycle network.” Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said new pathway would make cycling a much easier option for local residents. “It’s great to see public consultation now open for this important project,” Mr Bailey said. “We know for every dollar we invest in bike riding infrastructure, there’s an average return of five dollars in economic benefit to Queensland, through improved health outcomes, reduced traffic congestion and lower transport costs.

“That’s why the Government has committed nearly $270 million over the next four years towards active transport projects. “It’s all part of our commitment to helping Queenslanders enjoy the Sunshine State’s great lifestyle.” Council will seek feedback from the community on this project in two phases – this first phase is to inform the community about the project and receive feedback on the proposed design concepts. This feedback will be considered and incorporated into more detailed preliminary designs which will be made available to the community in early 2023 prior to finalisation of the design phase by June 2023. Following finalisation of the Noosa Drive pathway design, Council will seek funding to construct the project in the 2025/26 financial year. Consultation on Council’s concept designs for a new pathway along Noosa Drive is now open and will close on 21 September 2022.

Crash leaves motorcycle Teen charged with murder rider in serious condition The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating a crash between a car and a motorcycle at Coolum Beach on Sunday 11 September. The motorcycle and car were travelling in opposite directions before they collided at the intersection of Central Avenue and Yandina Coolum Road at about 7.30pm, leaving the motorcycle rider in a serious condition.

He was transported to the Sunshine Coast University Hospital with head injuries and suspected fractures. The driver and sole occupant of the car, a 17-year-old Yaroomba girl, was not physically injured. The investigation is continuing.

“It’s time I look for my own home.”

A 16-year-old boy has been charged with murder following the death of a man in Baringa on the Sunshine Coast. Emergency services were called to a Toyne Street home just before midnight on Wednesday 7 September, where a 42-year-old man was found with stab wounds. The man died from his injuries at the scene. Sunshine Coast Crime Group Acting Detective Inspector Phil Hurst said the deceased is an associate of one of the adults in the household and not of any relation to the 16-year-old boy. “The premises is a rental and it’s not known

to police for any particular reason,” he said. “As I understand the family have been in the home for over six months.“ A crime scene was established and a 16-year-old boy known to the man was taken into custody. He has since been charged with one count of murder and is due to appear in Maroochydore Childrens Court. “When young people arm themselves with knives, there can be tragic outcomes, and we’ve seen that here again today where a person has lost their life,“ Detective Inspector Hurst said.

Koalas on the Move. Be aware! The number of koalas being injured or killed on Noosa roads is increasing each year. Most strikes occur during breeding season when koalas are on the move. Juveniles are dispersing from their mothers to find their own home range while others are looking for a mate.

BETWEEN JULY AND DECEMBER KOALAS ARE ON THE MOVE. BE AWARE. DRIVE WITH CARE.

The Pub Test With the community consultation on waste strategy underway from this week, our Friday arvo beer swillers and wine guzzlers consider their verdict. PHIL JARRATT keeps them (more or less) orderly.

Waste: can habits change? Ringleader: How big is the waste problem, both here in Noosa and globally? Are people exaggerating? Female voice 1: Noosa is a lot better off than a lot of places I’ve travelled to around the world, due to the efforts of the general population over a number of years and also the programs that we’ve put in place, and the environmental groups that remind us of the issues every week, but I still think it’s a massive problem here and getting worse. Female voice 2: I think Noosa Council has let the ratepayers down for a long time on domestic waste. Our waste management is way behind where it should be, compared to other council areas I visit. We don’t have a third organic waste bin, for example, and they’ve been in play elsewhere for ages. Watching people stuff their food waste into their landfill bins breaks my heart. Ringleader: Where are the good councils, the ones getting it right? FV2: Ballina Shire, Tweed Shire, for example. There, general waste bins are the last resort. Some of them don’t use it at all. In these places, the general education on waste has had an effect. Male voice 1: To go back to your question, is it a problem? Yes, it is, and like all problems, we have to step back and examine what’s causing it. Here we have a consumerist society where

The Pub Test secret chamber. products are not designed to last. Built-in obsolescence means you have to buy another widget every three years and throw the old one away. Advertising drives us towards generating a lot of waste, and the question is, what

do we do with it? So if we accept that we are a consumerist society and there’s nothing we can do about that, then we are going to have a problem. Can that be changed? I’m not too sure, but I think it can.

FV2: Actually consumer waste is one area that Noosa Council has managed quite well. MV1: Up until 2015 we only had the two-bin system – general waste and recycling. At that time council conducted a community jury process to look at the question of how to cut back what’s going into landfill. They came up with a green waste bin and, because the idea came from the community not the council, it was widely accepted. But food waste remained the missing link. FV1: In New Zealand at a place called Kaikoura, which is about half the size of Noosa, they have a resource recovery centre where waste is broken up much better than ours because households get charged more if they put stuff in the wrong bins. Because of that, community groups get together and sort their own rubbish and deliver it broken up correctly to the recovery centre in someone’s ute. It started out a bit hip pocket nerve, but it became a cultural change. Ringleader: That sounds like a great example of individual and community responsibility. FV 1: Yeah, it’s best practice. People travel there from all over to look at how it works for their own communities. MV2: I think the core of the problem is that we don’t need to do anything. It’s just so easy to throw everything in the bin without thinking about it.

MV1: The more people think and act like that New Zealand example helps the problem downstream, but we also have to think upstream about changing consumerism. I recently found a shop where they recycle old suitcases of second-hand stuff. That’s great thinking because it’s bought and sold and reused, whereas it would have ended up in landfill. The more we have of that, the smaller the problem becomes. And it’s the same with food waste. Do you throw it out or put it in a worm farm? The more we can divert stuff from going in the hole, the better off we’ll be. MV2: The problem that I’ve seen with friends who’ve done the worm farm is that it’s not so easy, even on a small scale. FV1: I beg to differ. I’ve seen it working on a small basis at a resort in Noosa where they have a basic three-tray digester. There are never any unpleasant smells from it. That’s usually fish or prawns in the general bins. MV1: A couple of years ago Ipswich Council actually stopped their recycling because the level of contamination was so high. In Noosa it’s always been quite low because people are generally prepared to do what it takes. We’re all here for the same reason. FV1: And now is the time to do it. It would have been awesome if we’d started a long time ago, but now we must. MV1: If people are prepared to pay for it. Ringleader: What you’ve touched on there is the great divide. Everyone seems convinced that we’re doing waste management right, yet we continue to create more waste. Shouldn’t the public awareness message be stop creating waste? MV1: Well, there’s another theory about it which is, it’s not waste, it’s a resource. We need to get people thinking of it like that. And the technology to turn waste into resources is be-

It’s based on the idea that went around a few years ago that no matter what bin you put it in, your waste all ends up in the same hole. I think that shows that there needs to be some strong messaging around what’s really happening. FV2: Remember The Chaser’s War On Waste? FV1: That was the catalyst for a lot of this thinking. FV2: Well, they tracked the container ships to the middle of the ocean where they just chucked the waste overboard. Not a positive message. FV1: No, but it was a huge wake-up call to everyone that we have a big problem. But that doesn’t always translate into people’s behaviour. A classic example is that we have keep cups at the office where I work, but often people will come into work with a single-use plas-

tic mug of coffee they just bought, tip the coffee into the keep cup and put the plastic mug in the bin. In the end, the people fighting plastics find that it either comes down to financial gain, or the fact that there are no single-use plastics available and you have no alternative. MV1: The hip pocket incentive definitely works with bottles and cans, and with having to buy a bag at the supermarket unless you bring your own. But you have to reinforce that message every day. MV2: Do you think that the many tourists who come here would have an expectation that Noosa would be waste-smart, being a Biosphere Reserve and so on? FV1: Well, Booking.com has a sustainability report, and it’s recently gone up from 60 per cent to 73 per cent of visitors saying they are looking for a green alternative but when they arrive at a destination it often only meets their green expectations 35-42 per cent. The takeaway from that is that many destinations are not keeping up with what people want in that space. MV2: So the tourists are ahead of us and we have to catch up! That’s a bit embarrassing. We have to get with the program. FV1: I have to say that in many ways Noosa is ahead of the game. Things like events doing the right thing with plastic and recycling, and council’s support of organisations like PlasticFree Noosa and Zero Emissions Noosa. PlasticFree Noosa has 69 champion businesses on its books who have completely eliminated single use products. MV1: Getting back to the landfill, part of the problem is that it’s far cheaper to build a hole than do anything about it. In Europe the land bank is small and the population huge, so it doesn’t make any sense to bury waste in the ground. Here we’ve got fewer people and much

more land, but the fact that in Noosa we have spare capacity at the landfill is both a blessing and a curse. The blessing is that we have time to plan and make the right decisions for the future. The curse is that there’s no imperative to change. MV2: We have a really strong identity here and I think it’s important for that to continue to improve our sustainability, but we need to turn it up a bit in relation to turning waste into resources and how we do that. MV1: That’s true, but you’re talking about how you do it, while the questions being asked in the community consultation are based around why we need to do it. If you ask the question, are you prepared to pay to find a solution to our waste problem? And the answer is no, then how you do it doesn’t really matter. Ringleader: What’s the most important thing we need to learn through the community consultation about people’s attitude to waste? FV1: I think it’s, do you get that we’re creating too much waste? I hope that people do get that, but then why would they continue to do what they do? FV2: I don’t think that it’s council’s role to modify human behaviour. Does anyone? MV1: Other than educating people about the impact of their behaviour, no. But what’s the most important thing we need to learn from the community? I think there are two. The first is to gauge the level of understanding that waste is a community issue, not just a council issue. The second thing is, if we want to fix it, are we prepared to pay for it? I’m actually optimistic that we can turn this around because we’ve done it before, with smoking, water and now electric cars. FV2: Not only do we change, but we just drop things that we thought we couldn’t live without like they never existed, and we move on.

Cooloola farm gates open By Margie Maccoll Newcomers to the Cooloola Farm Trail, Eastwell Farms, were overwhelmed by the numbers of people who visited their Kin Kin property over the weekend to join in a farm tour or take home some of their gourmet mushrooms and grass-fed beef. The 400-acre farm has been run by Bryant and Susie Ussher and son Alex since 2018 when they took over from Bryant’s father Arland who bought it as a dairy in 1969 and turned it into a beef farm, beginning a process of regenerative farming that the family has built on. Arland planted different plant species to increase biodiversity and introduced the tickresistant breed of Brahman cattle, eliminating the need to spray them with tick-resistant chemicals. When Bryant and Susie took over they divided the property into about 40 paddocks with plumbed troughs to support rotational grazing of their 270 cattle and prevent the animals drinking from and eroding the banks of Kin Kin creek that passes through the property. They introduced an African breed of cattle, Nguni, which are more parasite-resistant as well as easy to manage with their amiable temperaments. The family interest in fungi led them to establish a mushroom farm out of four repurposed shipping containers. In their first farm trail experience, the couple told guests about their cattle and took them through the mushroom process, explaining their need to maintain a constant temperature, humidity and oxygen-controlled environment to grow the various species which can take from three to five weeks for oyster mushrooms up to three to five months for shiitake, with the waste included in their compost. “We’re part of the slow food movement,“ Susie said. “We’re very conscious of the miles and not

Chef Matt Golinski chooses their meat for events, Noosa Cartel uses it to create delicious pies and it is sold to locals at the Noosa Farmers Market. Their mushrooms are also sold at the market when they’re not snapped up by restaurants including Sofitel, View, Boathouse and Le Monde. The Cooloola Farm Trail held on September 10- 11 welcomed three new agri-businesses to the weekend that provided the opportunity to get close up to where some of the region’s quality food comes from. Now in its sixth season, the farm trail offered the chance to explore the hinterland and meet with those who provide us with products from the land, to ask questions, to understand what is involved in getting our food from the farm gate to the plate.

Jobs in Noosa are online Noosa is one of the top holiday destinations in Australia with a range of tourism and hospitality jobs on offer throughout the region, from the coast to the hinterland. Since the outbreak of Covid-19, many businesses have been forced to reduce opening hours and service levels due to the lack of workers and skills shortages. In response, Tourism Noosa has launched an online jobs board to assist business owners who are struggling with the current workforce. The Tourism Jobs in Noosa page links people looking for work or a new career with businesses that have tourism and hospitality job vacancies, offering several jobs and work choices. Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson said, “The jobs board is an outcome of the Noosa Workforce Shortage Group that Tourism Noosa initiated in response to operators who are struggling to find staff, an issue that is impacting many businesses around Australia and overseas, particularly in regional areas.“ “Noosa’s reputation as a great holiday destination is dependent on the successful operation of our local businesses, particularly as we approach the Christmas season, the biggest season of the year. “It is imperative that we get businesses opening hours and staffing levels back to what it was prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, ensuring the future of both the businesses and the region”. Niche Luxury Accommodation managing director Sue Willis said the staffing crisis, triggered by Covid-19 had had far-reaching effects across the tourism industry. “Noosa is no exception! A dedicated, industry-focused jobs board will be a vital tool for local businesses as we continue to promote job opportunities across the region to continue to deliver the service our visitors have come to expect,“ Ms Willis said.

“Bringing together jobs and workers in a professionally facilitated and well promoted, centralised jobs board will only help to encourage great people to join us in Noosa in great jobs to deliver great service.“ Sofitel Noosa Pacific Resort’s director of talent and culture, Emily Carter said, “The job board that has been created by Tourism Noosa will assist us with sourcing new talent/candidates who are invested in working in the Noosa region and securing long-term workforce opportunities in a place that has so much so offer.” It is evident the past few years have changed the way many people think about work, which is why Noosa is a great place to consider, offering a wonderful combination of work-life balance. Choose from a variety of tourism and hospitality jobs including full-time, part-time and casual positions, all of which are clearly labelled on the jobs board. Tourism Noosa is also calling out to locals who have previously worked in tourism or hospitality and wish to get back into the industry, students who are looking for casual work, international backpackers travelling to Australia, early retirees looking for a new challenge and the list goes on. This appeal goes out to Noosa and the wider Sunshine Coast and Gympie region, to consider a tourism job in Noosa. Noosa MP Sandy Bolton, who is part of the Noosa Workforce Shortage Group, said, “I encourage workers, students and gap yearers from across our region and beyond to jump on the Jobs Page and join our incredible community as there is nowhere better to live, work and play!” Tourism Noosa’s job board comes at a great time to help the tourism and hospitality businesses during this current climate.

Join World Clean Up Day By Abbey Cannan To celebrate World Clean Up Day, Plastic Free Noosa is hosting a beach clean up at Sunshine Beach on Saturday 17 September from 8am. Plastic Free Noosa manager Peita Otterbach said World Clean Up Day was one of the biggest civic movements globally. “It unites over 190 countries across the world and it’s all about bringing volunteers and partners together to essentially work towards a more sustainable and cleaner world,“ she said. “The goal of World Clean Up is to achieve five per cent of the total global population to be involved in a green wave of clean ups across the globe. We’ve still got a fair way to go to reach the five per cent.“ Peita said the day was a fantastic opportunity for the community to come together to have important conversations. “Everyone’s aware we’ve got a problem but they’re not sure what they can do to help fix it, and this is a great way to be a part of the plastic pollution solution,“ she said. “We’ve invited local businesses, community groups, community clubs, schools and a whole host of people. So I think we’re going to have a fairly big turn out in terms of people power. It’s probably going to be our biggest to date which will be awesome.“ An inspiring Plastic Free Noosa supporter is local Year 9 student Liv who has a business collecting micro plastics from beaches around Noosa and using them to make stunning and very colourful earrings. Liv is getting involved on Saturday and will be awarding the person who collects the most micro plastics with a free pair of earrings. “We truly have some inspirational environmentally passionate youth in our community,“ Peita said.

Gala backs new surf club On a perfect spring night under a full moon, the third annual Spirit of Peregian fundraiser took place under giant tipis in Peregian Park. The event raises funds for the future rebuilding of the Peregian Surf Club and is run by residents’ association Peregian Family and Friends, which has campaigned since 2017 for the revival of the surf club. President and event organiser Leigh McCready said: “Each year, on the closest Saturday to the day the Peregian fires started in 2019, we run a fundraiser which celebrates the strength of the Peregian community spirit

which was on display so strongly that year. “In 2022, our inspiring guest speakers Jordan Mercer and Richard Thompson shared with us their support and advice for achieving the community’s goal of building a new clubhouse one day – to make the seemingly impossible, possible.” Among attendees to the gala event were Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart, celebrity chef Adriano Zumbo and wife Nelly and the MC was Hot 91 Breakfast Host Sam Coward. The 2023 event is scheduled for Saturday 9 September.

Builder’s secret weapon Born and raised in Noosa by the beautiful Noosa River, it is no surprise that Nelson Ross was passionate about restoring timber boats from a young age. At just 15 years old, Nelson cleared a space in his backyard and got stuck into restoring an original timber lifeboat from a late 19th century steam ship. After spending several months in the sunshine, bringing a 100 year old boat back to life, Nelson knew that one day he would turn his passion for working with timber into a profession... and that is exactly what he did. Nelson became a qualified boat builder through an apprenticeship with reputable luxury yacht builders, Noosa Marine, and worked in the industry for many years before deciding he wanted to create special timber furniture pieces for like-minded locals, and make his work accessible for people with all size budgets. So, with interior designer and wife Nichola Ross by his side, they started sourcing quality Australian hardwood, designing their first piece to showcase, and sharing their custom timber furniture with those looking for something special that lasts. Starting a new business is challenging at the best of times, but it was 2021 and Covid was upon us. Lockdowns, uncertainty and financial instability didn’t stop this tenacious team, they thought smart, started small, and sought sound advice from Business Mentoring Noosa (BMN) from the very beginning to put them on the right track. “We knew it wasn’t the best time to start a small business, but if Covid has taught us anything it is that nothing is certain, anything is possible and work/life balance matters,“ Nichola said. “So we dove in head first and reached out to BMN to ask for guidance on how to navigate through such uncertain times as a small startup“. Working from under their house in a small space, building beds around structural poles and banging their heads on low hanging

Nichola and Nelson Ross and Georgie of Timber and Tide. beams, Nelson and Nichola got creative with space and worked with limited tools to maximise room in their makeshift workshop. Like so many, they also jumped on the pandemic pet bandwagon and hired their head Pawject Manager, a gorgeous golden retriever called Georgie - who turned out to be more of a hindrance than a help. So with the support of their business mentor Peter Read from BMN, a little help from friends and zero help from lovable Georgie, they started to grow their passion project into a thriving small business and it wasn’t long before they had enough orders to take on a lease in a much larger workshop in Noosaville. “We feel so grateful to be able to do what we love every day and build quality pieces for quality people,“ Nelson said. Making stunning furniture isn’t their only focus.

Timber & Tide work.

While they are excited to see a future unfold that combines their skills of craftsmenship and design, they are thrilled to work in an industry that allows them to care for a future beyond their own. Focusing on sustainability, their furniture is made from locally-sourced, FSC-certified quality hardwood and finished in a natural non-toxic hardwax oil. They make to order to avoid any waste through mass production, and run their machinery on solar power. Nelson and Nichola also donate to Australian rainforest restoration organisations to plant more trees than they use, and continually work towards producing zero waste by recycling wood scraps and sawdust. “Making eco-friendly products is a movement we can all get behind so it’s no wonder Timber & Tide are off to such a great start“ business mentor Peter Read said.

“It’s been fantastic seeing Nelson and Nichola bring their vision to life and it’s been very rewarding offering advice and supporting them on their journey.“ “Peter has been like our secret weapon,” Nichola said. “Whenever we are at a pivotal turning point in our business or facing a challenge, Peter has been there to bounce off and help steer us in the right direction. “We are extremely grateful to Business Mentoring Noosa for the service they provide.

Tourism volunteers gain river experience to share Tourism Noosa volunteers converged on Pelican Boat Hire last Wednesday to enjoy morning tea and be given an update on river experiences available from many of the local marine tourism operators. Pelican Boat Hire owner Craig McGovern said the Noosa River was a unique destination for locals and visitors and provides a vast range of river, ocean and land-based adventures and activities. “Our showcase is an opportunity to help the Visitor Information Centre volunteers meet the operators, understand the range and be able to help guests to our region have memorable experiences on the incredible Noosa River. “Pelican Boat Hire’s marina is the starting point for many of these adventures and

works in partnership with the region’s best operators,“ he said. The volunteers jumpd on board for site inspections, from beautiful self-drive luxury pontoons, to stand up paddle boards and kayaks. They got to see a demonstration of how nauticycles and efoil’s work and Deep Sea Fishing Co shared what’s been biting and some of the best fishing spots. There were updates on how the whale season is going with Ocean Rider and how close the dolphins come to the kayak tours operated by Epic Ocean Adventures. Coast Hinterland Tours shared some of their exciting new scenic day tours and Bike On Noosa showed how to never get lost on

their bikes with their carefully curated selfguided tours with GPS supported directions. It wouldn’t be a Noosa River event without the Noosa Ferry and of course the insightful stories from Captain Gary of the Noosa River & Canal Cruise. Eco Qld also showcased their cruises through the mirrored waterways of Australias’ only everglades. Tourism Noosa’s volunteers play a vital role in helping guests to this region experience all that is on offer. This showcase ensured they were better equipped to direct customer inquiries to the most appropriate operator as well as ensure they fully understood the high standard of operations, vessels and experiences that are uniquely available on the Noosa River.

Who settles in for a cosy Saturday night hankering for some heartrending real-life drama from a hectic emergency dispatch centre in the UK? Most people wouldn’t put their hands up, but once you catch a glimpse of the life-and-death situations, you are sucked into a vortex where you need to know how the situation resolves. Tonight, paramedics help a young man who has had a painful fall from a horse, and a man is trapped under a collapsed mobile home. THE BLOCK Nine, Sunday, 7pm

The competition is heating up for the next room reveal, as the all-important kitchens get their time in the spotlight. Darren Palmer (pictured) will no doubt once again be on the lookout to see if these latest offerings adhere to his “five-zone kitchen” ideals, as he and fellow judges Shaynna Blaze and Neale Whitaker cast a critical eye over them. Host Scott Cam will reveal all as he tallies up the points and hands out this week’s much-needed $10,000 prize. PLANET AMERICA ABC TV, Monday, 9.35pm

Despite the next US presidential election being two years away, Chas Licciardello and John Barron (pictured) are never short of juicy tidbits, public missteps and news from the American political scene to discuss and dissect each week. In this series return, the wry duo will preview the run-up to November’s mid-term elections. Even if you don’t have the slightest interest in US politics, Licciardello and Barron make even the driest of political topics fun and interesting.

PICK OF THE WEEK TAKE 5 WITH ZAN ROWE ABC TV, Tuesday, 8pm

What are five songs that shaped who you are today? It’s a tantalising question, asked by Double J’s Zan Rowe each week for the past 15 years on her enormously popular radio program and podcast, which makes its television debut this week. Fittingly, there are five episodes in the series, featuring country legend Keith Urban, singer-songwriter Missy Higgins, sports presenter Tony Armstrong and pop powerhouse Tori Amos. In this premiere episode, Rowe delves deep with actor Guy Pearce (pictured with Rowe), who reflects on the impact of losing his father at a young age, shares the songs he used to cope with his Neighbours fame and how music helps him make sense of the world.

All the fun of Noosa show By Margie Maccoll Cameron Morris inherited his love of poultry and knowledge of fowl from his grandfather. When his grandfather passed away last year, the Cooran local took over his Astralorps, adding them to his own breeds of Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes and at last weekend’s Noosa Country Show, he took over the role of steward, caring for the seven categories of poultry entered. This year, Cameron’s four champion birds were show winners at Maleny, Nambour, Redcliffe and Mary Valley but he had none of his own birds entered at Noosa where the champion of the show was awarded to Lucy Roche’s Partridge Brahma rooster. While Cameron, a third generation poultry farmer, was fortunate to have family to pass on their knowledge, the Noosa Country Show provided an opportunity for people across the shire to get closer to those with rural roots, an intention of the show and reflected in the it’s theme, where town meets country. “We know there are so many young people, especially, who have had limited opportunities to learn about the agricultural and horticultural heritage of our community, to learn where their food comes from,“ society president Rob Graham said. “At the show, they can be introduced to farm animals at the petting zoo, see the judging of stud beef, and look through the different flower, cookery, and craft displays.” Among the craft exhibit was spinner and knitter Pam Walker who brought her spinning wheel to demonstrate to visitors the process of spinning the yarn which was shorn from her own alpacas and then knitted into a collection of hats. For the past 15 years, Pam has been creating her hats, producing about 10 hats from the wool shorn from an adult alpaca, as well as knitting a range of colourful lambswool hats,

Creativity brews in trail By Erle Levey Something mystical is brewing in the shadow of Mt Pinbarren. Noted Pomona steel sculpture artist Peter Smith has teamed up with award-winning mead makers Andy Coates and Nicola Cleaver as part of the Noosa Open Studios art trail over the first two weekends of this month. Driving along the Pomona-Kin Kin Road you cannot help but be taken by the perfect cone-shaped Mt Pinbarren dominating the skyline. As you get closer the plantation of hoop and kauri pines takes on a mystical presence ... like something out of Lord of the Rings. The plantation is on the site of the original Pinbarren State School and later became a World War Two memorial forest. At the foot of the mountain, and in a leafy environment, you become immersed in the grounds of Amrita Park Meadery. It’s home to Andy and Nicola who, for the third year running, have taken out Best Traditional Mead honours at the Royal Brisbane Show. Providing a dramatic welcome to the meadery are a number of larger-than-life steel sculptures by Peter Smith. A self-taught welder and landscaper, Peter will be on site at Amrita Park Meadery during Noosa Open Studios Art Trail on October 1-3 and October 8-9. It will be a coming together of two arts - the ancient art of mead making and the raw industrial art of steel sculpture. Suddenly I’m thinking about medieval times with knights in armour thumping pewter tankards on oak tables and blacksmiths fashioning swords on their anvil. It’s not far from the truth - Andy and Nicola have been very successful with their range of meads at medieval festivals as well as food and wine functions.

Five bottles.

Apart from having taken out Best Traditional Mead honours at the Royal Brisbane Show, they entered their melomel (fruit mead flavours) in the show, against stiff competition. The melomels took out first, second and fourth in that category. All the top meads from all sections were then judged, with Amrita Park’s traditional mead offering coming out tops as grand champion. Yet it is not just the traditional methods that Andy has inherited from his grandfather Dennis Poppo Coates who had been making first

“They are both very light and refreshing drinks - more like a light cider, not super sweet and not super dry. “The grapefruit had a really nice little bitterness. Everyone at the festival was loving it. “The grapefruit are from here ... some from just on the other side of the Kin Kin Range and some from the property that’s near here.’’ Andy and Nicola also created a ginger and lime mead in cans that was trialled at a Slow Food Noosa function and they sold out as well. The launch of Amrita Park Meadery has been somewhat of a rollercoaster ride.

class mead and entering competitions in Europe and Australia since the early 1940s. In their five years at Pomona, Andy and Nicola have been continually experimenting with new products by utilising local fruit and honey. The most recent product has been sparkling mead. “Well, we actually just sold out of it at the Moreton Food and Wine Festival,’’ Andy said. “It was our launch and now we’ve got micro breweries wanting to buy it. “We also did a sparkling pink grapefruit mead.

Just as the pair were getting established, the Covid pandemic hit and everything came to a stop. Now, as people are relishing in the ability to get out and about again, they’ve gotten “stupidly busy and demand is outstripping supply’’. Andy said he had just been making batch, after batch, after batch. “The godsend for us is that we now use kveik yeast which is a high temperature fermenting yeast - it ferments quite fast and it just goes well with honey. “It allows us to ferment in summer time to temperatures that still see fermenting at 40 degrees. “It’s normally traditionally used in ales, like it’s a beer yeast but doesn’t taste beery. “It just gives such good results.’’ While mead-making is an age-old craft, it has taken a lot of energy plus word-of-mouth and education for modern generations to discover its flavour. “That highlights the difference,’’ Andy said. “At the Abbey Medieval Festival recently there was a crowd of 30,000 people who know what mead is. “You’re not trying to educate these people they just want to try it and they love it. “Then fast forward to the Moreton Bay Food and Wine Festival and our main job was educating. “The first thing people say is: ’What? Mead? I’ve never heard of it. I don’t know what it is. Oh, that’s just something sweet. That’s just a honey beer.’ “It’s almost a generation of people who don’t know about it. “So we are very aware that our main job is education. “While many people are unsure about mead, that is changing ... and we have so many people who are now followers and sharing our mead, so it’s growing exponentially.’’ When Covid hit and large numbers of people discovered the benefits of working from home and home gardens, people started to search out the old style crafts such as home brewing. “At the start of Covid, when lockdowns went on, alcohol consumption went up,’’ Andy said. “A lot. “But it was the types and styles of alcohol they chose. “All the cheapest wine and the cheapest beer sales went up, and all of the boutique stuff just fell off a cliff. “They were taking in account of the cost I suppose and how long Covid was going to be with us ... that uncertainty. “People just didn’t know what was going to happen and they were stuck at home. They were not really sure, so they bought a lot but it was all as cheap as possible.’’ Then it changed, and changed fairly abruptly. People started to gain confidence and discovered they were OK financially. But they still had time and realised it wasn’t the end of the world. That’s when they started buying the boutique and the higher-end wines, spirits and craft beers. “That made a pretty big difference,’’ Andy said, “and it’s just been going up since then. “A big difference has been that pre-Covid and during Covid online sales were quite high, but now online sales are quite low. “It’s our cellar door that is much busier - everyone wants to get out to shows and festivals .... we’ve never seen anything like it.’’ Even with the success of the products, Andy and Nicola want to concentrate on growing the sparkling mead market. “We don’t want to be big ... doing massive 10,000 litre batches. “Ideally it sort of follows on with the Slow Food ethics where you are not transporting it

a long way. “We go down to the bottom end of the Sunshine Coast, maybe a little bit further, and have a couple of little outlets there. “The micro breweries want something that’s a bit different. “But we don’t want to be everywhere. We want to be able to value-add to anyone that has our product in stock. “People will seek it out. We want to just really support the local side of things.’’ Keeping it local is what steel sculpture artist Peter Smith does. While working as a landscaper he started the sculptures as personal therapy. That was four and a half years ago. “I love the ocean and all of the creatures associated with it that live together,’’ he said. “Once I have decided on a subject and studied the most notable features I pretty much have it already created in my mind. “I think my art provides enjoyment and inspiration for others to be creative. “I also believe it assists the importance of caring for our wonderful creatures. “I love making sculptures and the joy it brings me and others. And I love it more when standing in a crowd and watching the reactions of other people.’’ Peter mostly uses recycled metal and timber … old beams from buildings and bridges. There is so much texture in that and the steel from old plough discs, roofing iron that has been flattened out by the artist driving his Dingo landscaping tractor over it. He also uses 6mm steel rods, welds them in place and then grinds them down where needed to burnish or give a flattened look. The broken drive-chain from a Dingo provided the basis for his first work of art - a chandelier. A friend was an artist and they set the chain out in a circle, then added to it. From there, Peter started making pieces and selling them. “What started out as therapy for me became a passion. “I’ve always been right into art, even as a kid at school. That was on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula. “When Caroline and I got married we moved here to Pomona. “That was about 17 years ago. “I have been inspired by other artists who have complimented me on my artwork. “I wasn’t really looking to do anything special, it was just for me. “Then I started getting invited to do shows and exhibitions.’’ Are the steel and timber materials a flow-on from landscaping? “No, not really. The broken chain from my Dingo was just there by the shed for a year or so. “I got the arc welder out and made into a perfect circle and turned it into a chandelier.’’ Peter has been creating one-off pieces for private buyers throughout Queensland as well as interstate. A big sailfish is at Tewantin, a black cockatoo to the west of Gympie, a fabulous eagle at Cooroy, and a triple-winged dragon that was 3.5m wide. He uses plough discs as the tops of jellyfish and the flowers are all made out of the mowing fingers or teeth from a grain harvester. Peter will be on site at Amrita Park Meadery on Saturday and Sunday on both weekends during the Noosa Open Studios event. He will be discussing techniques and explaining the sculptures in place around the grounds of Amrita Park. Included is a dragon’s head, a giant seahorse, a nautical piece comprising jellyfish and ocean anchor, a horse’s head and smaller items such as some funky flowers, maybe a dragonfly or butterfly, and bees ... after all it is a meadery.

LETTERS NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Her Majesty remembered I woke about 4am (a habit I can’t get out of) to another of those unusual miserable mornings for a Queensland Spring that we are becoming accustomed to. Also not good for the Noosa Show Day and planned events for the opportunity to celebrate living in this so beautiful part of Queensland. It was made even more miserable and so very sad to see on Google and then TV that Queen Elizabeth had passed away. A photo shared by BBC’s Helena Wilkinson of a rainbow over the Queen’s favourite home Windsor Castle seemed so very appropriate that we must always look for the end of a rainbow, even on our worst days. She was a remarkable lady and never once broke her promise to serve those entrusted to her role as a Queen and Monarch always first. At times before her own family. She only ever once came close to the tradition of beheading anyone. Naughty heartache boy Andrew. There are those of us who pledged to serve our Queen and Country on enlisting in the British Army. A promise and vow must always remain just that. Becoming a Republic will not wipe away what she has left behind for all of us. Ernest Wright, Tewantin

Climate talk provokes response As expected, my letter “spectacular climate fails“ (NT, 2/9) stirred the global warmists, but the reply from Graham Coghill titled “climate misinformation“ contains its own load of misinformation (NT 9/9). His first disclaimer that British scientist David Viner “never did utter the words John attributes to him...“ This referred to Viner’s infamous quote in 2000, “Within a few years, winter snowfall will become a very rare and exciting event. Children aren’t going to know what snow is…“ Graham says this was refuted years ago, but a Google search reveals multiple pages of links to numerous news and web sites all still reporting the same quote. No big deal if he did later try to squirrel out of it, his wild prediction is just one of many forecasting major catastrophes which have failed to eventuate over the years. It’s also sad that Graham and some other climate worriers fail to recognise the spectacular coral regrowth over much of the Great Barrier Reef in recent years, as reported in the latest Australian Institute of Marine Science survey. He says “the recent recovery has been due to a new fast-growing pioneer species which are more susceptible to marine heatwaves, crown of thorns starfish and cyclones“. Maybe he meant “more resistant“ but it really goes to prove how resilient the GBR and other coral reefs around the world are, having survived and thrived through much warmer periods in the earth’s long history and will probably continue to do so. Graham’s claim there is “no contention about whether 0.04 per cent of carbon dioxide in the air can influence climate“ is ambiguous. Any claim that carbon emissions are the main driver of climate change is based on an unproven hypothesis which many international scientists do dispute. And Australia’s former chief scientist Alan Finkel told a Senate hearing a few years ago that if Australia cut its CO2 emissions (1.3 per cent of global emissions) to zero, the effects on world climate would be “virtually nothing“. Good luck with that. John Mikkelsen, Noosa

Joy Ringrose and Steve Hall. My question being,“what do we do with the hundreds of thousands of wind turbines, solar panels and batteries not only in Australia but worldwide when they become obsolete?“ The above very important question I sent to the Federal Minister for Environment and Water, the Honourable Tanya Plibesek on Friday 29/8/22, I am still awaiting an answer. The same question was put to various conservative senators and Sky News hosts with immediate positive feedback from Nationals Senator Matt Canavan and former Liberal Senator and current Sky News host Gary Hardgrave. Local, state and nationwide Australians deserve an answer on this crucial question.I do have an answer but eagerly await the solution by these avid proponents. Phil Broad, Black Mountain

User pays There’s only one cause why our world is now seriously dysfunctional – our governments and big corps. They have been steering this ship into oblivion. And we let them because we’re the voter/ user and we’ve become mute and lethargic. For decades now we have expected them to perform yet, regardless of party or organisation, they all end up the same. Pigs in the taxpayer’s trough. If we’re overpopulated, why do we keep building more estates and roads? Destroying all our forests while dilapidated buildings sit idle. If we’re sick, the GP can not only not heal us but can no longer diagnose. So what are we paying for? A signed piece of paper? We have allowed technology to intrude into our lives, control our functions and turned the next generations into narcissistic zombies. Technology pays for user’s anxiety, depression or such affects from use. Tradesmen and apprentices have become so rare due to lack of future education as the answer was to ‘just import them’. They just forgot to ensure they could speak English and their qualifications complied with ours. We can clean the drug industry up by making the pharmaceutical companies pay for rehabilitation housing – not jails. To get this joint cleaned up, it’s time for politicians to forego their overpaid leave once out of government. Superannuation they get,

just like us. All corporations that utilise our natural resources and make their money from it – pay to clean it up. The airlines clean up the air, the fishing, surfing and watercraft industries pay to clean up the ocean. The mines pay to clean up toxic waste in our waterways, soils and environment. The banks educate our young for free. Profiteers pay not just us. It’s time to get this show on the road and put these polluters (on all levels) paying from their absurd profits. Start by getting off your dumb phones, send a clear sign. Jen Oakley, Noosa

Science based in inquiry Recently I read about California’s proposal to disbar doctors who give medical opinions contrary to those of the official line. I sympathise with Tracy Hoeg’s view that the idea of scientific consensus medicine was “basically an oxymoron”. I’d extend the concept to any science discipline. The Australian Science curriculum has three strands, namely: Science inquiry skills Science as a human endeavour Science understanding The curriculum explains that the three strands of the curriculum are interrelated and their content is taught in an integrated way. The order and detail in which the content descriptions are organised into teaching and learning programs are decisions to be made by the teacher. Regarding the various views about the conditions which lead to changes in planet earth’s temperature, I hope the teaching of science inquiry skills isn’t clouded by the imposition of individual teachers’ opinions. My professor said, at our graduation in 1964, that the hope of his endeavours was that he was responsible for another generation of lifelong students, open to challenging ideas, willing to discuss them rationally and to debate them courteously. The belligerent declaration of a particular opinion, and the denial of the legitimacy of any other, doesn’t meet that test. John Deshon, Noosaville

Handling of climate change Others have written recently in these columns that climate science is not beyond contest and criticism. There are complex and sophisticated arguments in this regard but support of climate science is the current gospel accepted by its adherents, and recognised on a ‘may be’ basis by others who cannot come to grips with the complexities of the issues. What to do about the implications of climate science is certainly contestable. Hard medicine involving the demise of fossil fuels seemed to be the answer, at least it was at COP26 in Glasgow, although major emitters like China, India and Russia seemed to avoid making any significant commitments. And now the UK and Europe are back-pedalling rapidly as realities set in. That means at least 50-60 per cent of global emissions are now behind a new no-go curtain, for the foreseeable future. Where does that leave the minor players, such as Australia? Since our contribution to global emissions is only about one per cent, our highly touted efforts are not going to save the world. In fact, we are a very minor player, although there seems to be a reluctance to recognise this. Politically we have to play a part, but there is no reason for us to go overboard with policies that are high cost and draconian, and ineffective. Benefit-cost considerations seem to have flown out the window. There are too many subsidies and too many ambiguities, married up with self-interest by various entrepreneurs. Ironically, we seem to have decided, as a result of the recent Federal election, to push ahead flat out just as experience elsewhere suggests a pause for reflection or more gradual change would be beneficial. AEMO, which is usually gung-ho about the role of renewables, issued a clear warning recently that there are significant risks ahead with the security of power supplies. Closely related to that warning is the likelihood of very significant power price increases for residential and industry users. The next round of power pricing is going to be a big shock. It could be in the range 20-40 per cent, not something to look forward to, and a further inflationary accelerant. Whether one supports the climate science or not, are we happy with the way all of this is being handled? Denis Ives, Wakerley (a recent Noosa visitor)

Tomson is surfer and sage By Phil Jarratt For two people who clashed virtually from the moment they met, former world champion surfer Shaun Tomson and I have had an amazingly enduring friendship for almost half a century now. I never thought that would happen when the South African born, 1977 IPS world champion took furious exception to the anti-apartheid articles I wrote for surfing magazines in Australia and the US. “You’ve never even been to my country and you have no understanding of the issues,” he yelled at me during one of our early encounters. He was right, of course, about my naïve idealism, and history proved me right on the morality of apartheid, but we both moved on, him to America for the sake of his career (but not before doing his mandatory military service for the country he so loved), me to a more tolerant position on the views of others. And we became friends, as I also did with his late cousin Michael, another champion surfer and brilliant mind. Shaun will be on the Sunshine Coast only briefly next week, joining 1978 world champion Rabbit Bartholomew as keynote speakers at the at the 10th annual Board Meeting Surf Charity Legends of Surf Long Lunch which will be held at Novotel Twin Waters on 23 September. I’m looking forward to seeing Shaun at the lunch but I wish he could have taken up my offer to spend some time in Noosa, as he did in 2008 as a special guest at the Noosa Festival of Surfing, a week of good surf and a lot of laughs, and a few tears as we shared memories. As he gets older, however, Shaun seems to get busier, and his schedule of speaking engagements is brutal. Shaun always had the gift of the gab – at his surfing peak in the 1970s he pioneered a spectacular new approach to riding inside the wave, and declared, “Time is expanded when you’re in the tube,” and it made surfers around the world go deeper, which is more or less what he’s doing in an intellectual sense now. “My new life is so rewarding,” he wrote to me recently. “You write and I speak.” Although he remained a potent force in world professional surfing right through the 1980s, Shaun also created and ran two successful surf brands, Instinct and Solitude, the latter with wife Carla, as well as adding an American master’s degree in leadership to his South African commerce degree, while he and Carla brought a son, Mathew, into the world in 1991. I saw the Tomsons regularly during the

Shaun at home in Montecito, California, 2017. years at the turn of the century when I ran the Quiksilver World Masters series, and saw how much they doted on their only child. In 2006 Shaun turned his hand to film production with a documentary about the dramas and conflicts of the “Free Ride” years in Hawaii, for which he enlisted me to write a narration script for actor Edward Norton. The genre seemed to suit Shaun admirably, and his intense pieces to camera were among the best parts of Bustin’ Down The Door, which went on to win several awards. But before the film was finished, the Tomsons’ life came crashing down with the accidental death of 15-year-old Mathew at his school in Durban. Having also lost a son at a tender age, my wife and I understood only too well the devastation Shaun and Carla were feeling. But instead of wallowing in grief, Shaun used elements of his surfing experience, his resilient humanism and his Jewish faith in his first book of homespun philosophy, Surfer’s Code: 12 Simple Lessons for Riding Through Life, which he dedicated to the

Picture: PJ memory of Mathew. This later evolved into The Code: The Power of “I Will”, which was aimed at inspiring troubled teenagers. Meanwhile, he began mentoring for the charitable organisation Boys To Men, and his inspirational keynote addresses became famous around the world. And as the years rolled on, he and Carla adopted a boy, Luke, who has grown into a fine young man, much loved. Now Shaun has joined forces with the bestselling poet-philosopher Noah benShea for The Surfer and the Sage, a book that is already a bestseller. From the publisher’s blurb: “This timely guidebook alternates between Tomson’s inspiring experiential essays and benShea’s spiritual commentary that lift the soul… After losing his son, Tomson walked the bitter road of loss and crossed from darkness into the light. The Surfer and the Sage addresses the 18 relentless, breaking waves of life, from loss and aging to relationships and depression, and guides you to transformation.”

I remember being so proud of Shaun the night in 2008 when he graciously and tearfully accepted a standing ovation on stage at the stately old Arlington Theatre when Bustin’ Down The Door premiered at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Nearly a decade later he used his influence to get my production, Men of Wood and Foam, accepted into the SBIFF and then organised a before-screening party for the entire local surf community at a bar around the corner. That’s Shaun: he da man! According to Board Meeting Surf Charity chairman Mark Skinner, the annual lunch continues to get bigger each year, with ticket sales now closed and more than 600 people set to fill the room to hear from two of the world’s iconic surfers. “Our goal is to continue to raise money to help support local kids and their families with disabilities. Over the last 12 months our charity has managed to raise over $200,000 to help over 60 local families and we want to continue to do this,” Mark said. Friday, 16 September, 2022 NOOSA TODAY 33

Singer-songwriter returns Following the sell-out success of her tour last year, British singer-songwriter Emily Maguire returns to the Sunshine Coast Hinterland with a series of concerts in October. Known for her highly emotive songs and spellbinding live performances, Emily is a contemporary folk artist who was plucked from obscurity by American legend Don McLean and toured all the major concert halls in the UK including the Royal Albert Hall. Described as ’music for the soul’ (Maverick Magazine), her songs have been played on national radio in both the UK and Australia, as well as being featured in Hollywood films and a global Greenpeace climate change campaign. Emily has released six albums on Shaktu Records, the record label she set up with her husband Christian Dunham back in 2004, which they originally financed by making and selling goats cheese on the family farm in the Obi Obi valley. After 12 years away in the UK, they are delighted to be back home again. Her experience of mental health recovery has strongly influenced her songwriting.

She is a patron of the UK mental health charity Restore and in 2019 she won an international award for public service and advocacy for her work performing in UK mental health hospitals. Emily’s acoustic style of music is intensely melodic, influenced both by her classical training as a cellist and by Christian’s background in jazz. With a supremely expressive voice, thoughtprovoking lyrics and songs ’bathed in raw, emotional power’ (Guitarist Magazine), Emily’s music is a hauntingly beautiful and profoundly moving experience not to be missed. Emily and Christian perform as an acoustic duo on this Hinterland tour. They are playing The Majestic Theatre, Pomona on Saturday 15 October, Eudlo Hall on Saturday 22 October and Maleny Community Centre on Saturday 29 October. Tickets are $30/$25 concessions and are available from TryBooking through her website at emilymaguire.com

Ian Mackay is the chairman of MRCCC, the Mary River Catchment Coordinating Committee. A retired science teacher, he’s been involved in water education and water issues since the early 1990s. Back then, a number of sites on the Mary were investigated for a dam that Maroochy Shire chairman Fred Murray said was urgently needed so the coast wouldn’t run out of water by the year 2000. He was involved in the lengthy campaign to stop the hastily conceived Traveston Crossing Dam and wasn’t alone in wondering initially if the Borumba Pumped Hydro Project currently being investigated by the State Government was a devious way to announce a new dam. On 23 September, at the next Friday Environment Forum, Ian will describe the past, present and future use of the water resource that is the Mary River. “With the Mary Basin Water Resource Plan currently under review, and with a good deal of the Mary’s water already being exported to Noosa, the Sunshine Coast and even Brisbane, there’s a growing feeling that the Mary is looked on as the Magic Pudding, that just keeps on giving,” Ian said. Everyone is welcome at the NPA Environment Centre, 5 Wallace Drive, Noosaville on 23 September to understand the issues of the Mary River Basin. The forum starts at 10.30am and morning tea is available at 10-10.25am. Entry is $5 by tap and go at the door which includes morning tea/coffee. The organisers ask that masks are worn to protect the vulnerable in the audience. Join the bird observers at 8.30am in the carpark for interpretive birding.

Sun shines on Sailability On a bright and sunny spring day, the Noosa River looked its spectacular best for Sailability Noosa’s annual regatta on Thursday 1 September. The regatta was the culmination of six months of sailing and was well supported by regular clients, carers and parents. A series of four races was held in front of the Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club, with the winner of each heat competing in the final race. The overall winner on the day was Jason from Endeavour Foundation. To finish off the day, the Yacht Club provided a great barbecue lunch which was enjoyed by all. Speaking of food at the Yottie, the club has just released a sensational new weekend brekkie menu, available Saturday and Sunday from 8-10am. Check it out at nyrc.com.au/bar-andbistro/

Anglers travel for SCF comp has been working wonders with some anglers claiming great fish on smaller stickbaits like the Rapala long cast shallow or metal slug. In the rivers we have seen various trevally and smaller flatties to 60cm. With the waters starting to clear up you will find fishing starting to improve further upstream. Although we had rain it was light so the river didn’t experience any flooding. Mangrove jacks are also starting to wake up with anglers now turning their attentions to what has to be the hardest fighting fish in the river. Jacks will take just about anything as they are not only predators but scavengers. Many an angler has caught a sizable jack on a prawn intended for a bream as well as live bait. If you want to target jacks you need to think about how they hunt and feed and gear up accordingly. Jacks are masters of taking you back into cover and busting you off so fish with 15-20+lb lines and 20lb+ leaders. Once these fish really wake up in summer, these fish can often bust you off in the snags on 50lb gear. Slow rolling a soft plastic like the new Bite Science thump shad in 3/0 size will also pick up big flathead. These are a simple lure to use and make a great entry to soft plastic fishing. As the waters continue to clear up and warm it won’t be long until flats fishing for whiting, and bream will start to fire up. This is one of the most exciting ways to fish lures so keep an eye out on future reports. Now for all the latest information log onto www.fishingnoosa.com.au for up-to-date bar and fishing reports, don’t forget to drop into Tackle World Noosa, Noosa Boating and Outdoors and Northshore Bait & Tackle in Marcoola for all the right equipment, bait and advice to get you catching.

With the start of the full moon cycle and building neap tides this week, the lead up saw some slightly rougher weather but some great fish captures along the way. With the SCF comp on this weekend, anglers travelled far and wide to take part in the weekend’s events. Fortunately, the winds and swell dropped to allow everyone a shot offshore. During the week anglers were catching jewfish from areas holding baitfish in dense schools and deep water. You can try North reef and the back of the hards. Out here you can also expect to find amberjack and other reef fish including pearl perch and maori cod. For amberjack you can try high speed jigging with samaki V2 hummers in the 200 gram size or use a big soft plastic on a 2oz+ jig head for jewies and reefies. Snapper have also been found in the deeper cooler water with many anglers picking up fish in the 70cm size range on traditional paternoster rigs. Nothing beats a squid pilchard combo and we have plenty of pre-made rigs to make life easier and quicker. In closer the full moon slowed the bite period during the daytime but anglers persevered in magic conditions to catch all the usual reefies around the 20-40m depth line. Most fish taking bait with many anglers dropping plastics on lightweight gear in the 20lb range. When the seas are calm and the visibility is great you have to fish lighter. Be sure you pick up some FC rock leader and tie longer leaders than usual to help you lure or bait have the best presentation. Surf fishing saw a push of tailor south of Noosa around the various headlands and river mouths. With most anglers fishing during the end of the day the classic 5/0 gang hook and a pilchard has claimed good numbers of fish. For those with a 4x4 Fraser Island has seen great numbers of fish.

Victoria Barber proves to be a champion in the true sense of the word, as ERLE LEVEY reports.

Wondai rider wins state Wondai rider, trainer and endurance horse breeder Virginia Barber is a champion in the true sense of the word. Not only does Virginia encourage other riders to participate in the sport, she is now Queensland Endurance Riding Association (QERA) State Champion 2022. Held at Tepon Equestrian Park, Herberton, on the Atherton Tablelands, the championships saw strong representation and results from southern Queensland riders. For Virginia, riding La Belle Amour, the combination won the 160km middleweight division, best conditioned horse, and state title. It was a double, double success as her daughter Georgie, and fellow Mainstreme Equestrian rider Ellie-Rose Bowden, were equal first in the junior division. Kilkivan’s Shelley Chapman of ShanelliPark Endurance, took out the lightweight division, riding Box Hill Nitro, and won best conditioned horse. Jarrah Kelly of Shanelli-Park Endurance riding Picnic Park Smart Return became an Open rider in June and now has finished her first 160km event, not only completing but also receiving third junior. This combination never faltered during the very long night on an extremely challenging track. The North Queensland ride also saw four competitors earn the Triple Crown - Ellie-Rose Bowden riding Silver Centurion, Georgie Barber riding Concerto, Tracey Eastaughffe riding Moondarra Elton, and Alana Simpson riding Meea. To earn the Triple Crown, one rider, one horse combination must complete a QERA affiliated Marathon, the Tom Quilty Gold Cup & the QERA State Championships all in the one year. New state champion Virginia was riding on a back track at Wondai when I spoke to her. A QERA committee member, she juggles her own love of riding with taking classes for all ages and abilities. Yet Virginia specialise in National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) clients ... those with challenging physical or mental conditions. At the end of December she will be hosting and organising a junior boot camp for up-andcoming riders at the Wondai property. With people such as Virginia encouraging other riders, there is a rise in the number of people coming into the sport. Having started riding at the age of 10, Virginia says she is lucky enough to live her passion. “I’m still learning from horses ... they teach us every day.’’ The mare she was riding in North Queensland was La Belle Armour. Virginia picked her up a couple of years ago, as “Belle’’ was a bit too much for the owner. “Friends suggested she would suit me, as she was too high-spirited for dressage. “They have to want to do their sport. She didn’t like dressage as much as endurance. 42 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 16 September, 2022

Triple Crown award winners: Ellie-Rose Bowden, Georgie Barber, Tracey Eastaughffe and Alana Simpson.

I’m still learning from horses ... they teach us every day.’’ “Horses are the same as us in that regard. You have to want to do it. “They have so much love and affection. “In endurance you quickly find you cannot do the distances unless you have a relationship. “You get hot, tired, and so do they ... but they still keep going when asked. “There are not many other sports that do that.’’ For the championship ride at Herberton it was a 9pm start to make the most of the cooler night-time conditions. “We were not expecting too much heat,’’ Virginia said. “The course was very hilly, rocky ... a very technical track. “There was no rain. “It was through different forests - rainforest, eucalypt - then beautiful open bushland with fresh running creeks. “Being a 160km event I decided that my mare prefers to go by herself rather than with other riders. “The plan was I would ride my horse and the the two girls - Georgie and Ellie-Rose would stick together.’’ Virginia likes to take the first leg of the

course steadily because of the long way to go, but to stay as close to the front runners as possible. “There is no need to win until the second and final legs. “Completion the name of the sport ... the results make it better.’’ There was an 81.25 percent completion rate in the 160km event. This was the first state title for Virginia, after coming second in a gallop finish at Bowen in 2019. For Georgie Barber and Ellie-Rose Bowden, they started the 160km event together and that’s how they finished - equal first in the junior division. “They have been best friends since the age of seven,’’ Virginia said. “Ellie-Rose is like part of the family - she does a lot with us. “Georgie loves doing the hard yards and getting the results from it.’’ As well as chasing the state title in the junior division, both of the girls were going for the Triple Crown, but as well as finishing the three specific events in the same year, Georgie and Ellie-Rose were placed in each of them - first in the marathon at Stirlings Crossing, second in the Tom Quilty and now first at

the state championships. “You need to try very hard to do the three rides rather than place in each event,’’ Virginia said. “They’ve done amazingly well.’’ At Herberton, Virginia, Georgie and EllieRose were helped by Mark Nimon, with Casey Clarke as strapper. “It took a team effort to get three horses around 160km.’’ RIDE DISTANCE: 160.0 KM Heavyweight `Briony Ledingham and Brynjell Phoenix (best conditioned horse). 2.

Run against violence raises funds for major cause The annual Run against Violence launches this month, getting people of all ages to talk the talk, walk the walk… and run the run. The aim - preventing sexual assault and family violence. From a lone woman running across the outback to a group of coastal teens creating a hip hop song, runners and even walkers of all ages, the aim is the same, to get everyone in Australia talking about family violence and what it means to have healthy relationships. Run Against Violence is a volunteer organisation whose purpose is to end the silence by starting constructive and comprehensive conversations around family violence. Its Run Against Violence Virtual Team Challenge is a nationwide movement to raise awareness – and funds - by running 1300 kilometres. In 2021 the challenge raised $208,000 and had 4000 active participants. In 2022 the goal is $240k with 5000 runners and - as men and boys usually make up only about 21 per cent of runners - this year’s RAV is especially focusing on increased male participation. The theme message this year is today’s conversations are tomorrow’s way of life – you create the world you talk about… frankly, honestly. Together with Brad Smithers, Kirrily Dear established the charity Run Against Violence in 2015. The RAV Virtual Team Challenge was established in 2017 in conjunction with Kirrily’s solo run from Broken Hill to Sydney which was held over 19 days. The 1300km solo run brought people together from throughout regional NSW to raise awareness about family violence and its impact on the community. Today the RAV has increased its reach and impact with thousands of participants all over Australia joining. Kirrily said RAV highlighted the significant problem that family violence is in our communities. “Our virtual run equates to 1.7 million steps. 1.7 million is the estimated number of Australians who experienced physical abuse before the age of 15,” she said. “Our job is to engage the broader community in conversations about family violence to reduce the stigma and isolation for people who have lived with domestic and family violence. “When that stigma is removed people then share their story, reach out for help. “We deliver awareness campaigns and community activities in order to create the platform for these conversations around family violence to be heard”. During the challenge, teams of up to 20 people will walk or run in their local area, inviting friends and family to sponsor in support of their efforts.

RAV on central coast. Daily uploads of their distances onto an online tracker keep them in the competition. The tracker collects and collates each team member’s distances so the participants can watch their team track across the map from Broken Hill to Sydney. To be successful, the team is required to cover 1300km in the 19 days of the challenge. Run Against Violence partners with the National Association for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (NAPCAN) to help ensure that every teenager in Australia has the opportunity to learn about what healthy relationships look like for them. RAV has already donated about $200,000 to the program in two years and this year is aiming to reach that figure in one go, the balance of revenue to be invested in other community education initiatives. In its sights are innovations, group training and social platforms to improve the deployment of resources into the community. NAPCAN’s deputy chief executive officer Leesa Waters said: “We are excited and grateful to have this amazing partnership with Run Against Violence who - like us - are committed to engaging the whole community in preventing domestic and family violence. In particular, we believe that Australia’s young people are our most powerful agents of change. “Love Bites is an innovative respectful relationships education program that gives young people the opportunity to have frank and open conversations about what healthy relationships look like, what red flags look like, what consent looks like, and what feels ok for them,” Leesa said. “The program has been delivered all

into the future.” RAV invites anyone and everyone to participate. “If you can move 10 metres or 10,000 metres in a day, please join us in this movement to end family violence,“ Kirrily said. “You can enter as teams or as an individual; and, if you prefer, we can help you find a team. “Help RAV reach its goal of 5000 participants for 2022.

In a class of their own Max Neumann and Lotte Wilms have claimed victory at Sunday’s Qatar Airways Ironman 70.3 Sunshine Coast, with both athletes impressing on their way to the top step of the podium. Neumann won the men’s title in 3:29:47, edging out Adelaide’s Steve McKenna, with defending champion Nicholas Free third, while Wilms took the women’s crown in 4:00:20, ahead of New Zealand’s Hannah Wells and Penny Slater. Neumann last raced on the Sunshine Coast in 2020, where he finished second, with the Brisbane-based athlete going one better on Sunday. The top three men were the class of the field all day, with less than a second separating them for almost the entire 21.1km run, before Neumann pushed ahead in the closing stages to be first across the line. “It was a tough day, it’s always good to come back here,” he said. “The Sunshine Coast is a local race for me, just an hour drive from home and to have a good hit out four weeks before Kona is a good confidence booster and the perfect lead in to the final four weeks so it couldn’t have gone better. “We swam well, broke up the group after the first 10kms, I just rode hard there at the front, then we consolidated that gap and got about two minutes at the front and then us three boys really ran a quick race to be honest, 1:09 here on a pretty tough course with the hills is actually pretty quick,” Neumann said. “It was about as quick as it gets today to be honest with you, so I think we’re all pretty happy. “With about 5km to go I reckon we were running at about three minute pace and we really knocking it down there, I couldn’t crack Steve and then I got him on the last hill and just held it till the end,” he said. Next stop for Neumann is the VinFast Ironman World Championship next month, with it set to be his first trip to Hawaii’s big island and the most famous event on the Ironman calendar. “It’s going to be my first Kona, I haven’t had a great experience at the World Championships so far but Kona is special and it will bring something special out of me and I think the humidity will suit me so I’m pretty excited to be honest,” said Neumann. Sunshine Coast-based Dutch athlete Lotte Wilms impressed once again at her adopted home race, winning the title for the second straight year, after claiming victory on her Ironman 70.3 debut in 2021. “It was a great day, the conditions were really good, it wasn’t too windy, it was cloudy which is really nice on the Sunshine Coast as it can get really hot here,” said Wilms. “I felt really good in the swim, I always feel at home in the swim, I love to be in the ocean too, so I was

really enjoying it. Then on the bike I had some goals and I could see the girls were making up some time on me after one lap so I pushed a little bit harder on the second lap. “Then on the run I also had some goals, I wasn’t allowed to go full gas for the first 10kms because I’m going to race in America next week, later in the run I was supposed to go harder which was lucky because Hannah was catching me so I had someone to chase,” she said. “After 16kms I retook the lead and I didn’t let it go until the finish so it was a really good day.” Wilms said that she enjoyed the close battle with Wells, with the Kiwi pushing her all the

way on the run. “It was nice to have the battle with Hannah because I was just racing with myself till 10km in the run, so it was really nice that someone else was picking up the speed, I couldn’t keep going with her for a while, so it distracts your mind for a little bit.” The Sunshine Coast is quickly becoming a favourite location for Wilms, with the Dutch triathlete enjoying plenty of support on course. “It’s fantastic, last year it was a big surprise, I loved it so much that I stayed here and I’m living here, it’s my home now, so now winning it for the second time is incredible,” she said. “I

Noosa masters - records, medals and a trophy Noosa Masters swimmers achieved outstanding results at two recent meets. The Belgravia meet, held in Burpengary’s superb indoor heated pool, offered a rare opportunity to compete over the longer distances of 800 and 1500 metres. In an astounding weekend of racing, 23 state records and five national records were broken. Noosa’s Jo Matthews starred with a gruelling 800 metre butterfly swim that broke both the existing state and national records in the 65-69 age group. Her achievement was even more impressive, as a timing malfunction saw Jo and fellow competitors race for two full laps (100 metres) before the race was stopped and restarted. Clubmate Brian Hoepper swam both the 800 metre and 1500 metre breaststroke events, setting a new state record for each in the 75-79 age group. Across the two days, fine swims were also 44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 16 September, 2022

completed by Noosa’s Anne Besser, Terry Carter and Helen Malar. Two weeks later, Terry, Jo and Brian were joined by Rod Alfredson and Wendy Nothdurft for the Brisbane Northside meet at the historic Valley Pool. In the short course events, swum in a 25-metre pool, the racing was fast and furious. The Noosa team of five all collected medals. Terry, Brian and Jo won gold, Wendy – pipped by Jo in their age group – won silver and bronze went to Rod. Collectively, the team won the John and Shirley Kerr Trophy for top points by a small club. Again, records tumbled, with nine state and two national records broken. These evoked memories of the numerous records broken over the many decades when the Valley pool hosted every state championship. In the wake of their successes, Noosa’s swimmers are now in serious training for their own meet, to be held at the Noosa Aquatic Centre on Saturday 24 September.

Past Pirates doing good If you want to make a big success of a local charity function, a big step forward is always to have good well known guest speakers, and it’s even better if one or two happen to be local boys, those who have made an impression in the outside world. It just so happens that local lad, Moses Mbye, current NRL and former Pirates rugby league player, is back home and joining forces with his local club and the sporting community. The reason for this is to help raise funds for disadvantaged children and youth, funds that will enable them to play their chosen sport, a sport in which they can stay. And working with him will be another former Pirate success story, Jake Friend. The local Pirates boys may have hung up their football boots for the season, but the administration team has not. In keeping with their club policy of working for the community, the Pirates will, on Sunday 2 October, host a Sportsman’s Golf Day and Luncheon. This event, which will be headed up by Moses, at the Noosa Golf Club, will kick off early with an Ambrose golf event, followed by a Sportsman Luncheon. However, if golf is not your thing, you can come along and enjoy a great meal, a few drinks, plenty of stories and laughter, before the league grand final comes up on the big screen. And the guest speakers will be, of course, our local boys who hit the big time in the world of rugby league, Moses Mbye and Jake Friend. Mbye , who has been an NRL regular for many years with the Bulldogs, Tigers and now the Dragons, has also represented Queensland at State of Origin level, couldn’t think of a better was to spend his off- season than with his family and friends in his hometown of Noosa. “What will make it even bigger and better, I am getting my old Noosa Pirates mate

NRL player Moses Mbye will join former Pirate success story Jake Friend at a charity Sportsman’s Golf Day and Luncheon on 2 October. and Roosters NRL legend Jake Friend to come along and join me at the luncheon, as well as another good friend ex-NRL star Reni Matua,” Mbye During his career he has been something of a utility player having played half-back, fullback, five-eight, centre and hooker. During this time, he has played with Bulldogs five seasons, West Tigers four and St George one. Perhaps the highlight would have been 2019 when he was chosen for Queensland State of Origin three games. Such was his demeanour while in the Origin Camp that he was identified as a future

leader with great spirit, great attitude and well spoken. Another highlight was being picked for the Prime Minister’s 13 to play Papua New Guinea in 2016. As a current and experienced NRL player who now holds a position on the Rugby League Players Association (RLPA) Player Advisory Group, Mbye has turned his sights on ways that the game can be improved with a range of better outcome for all the stakeholders of the game. Mbye’s friend and former Pirate player Jake Friend had an outstanding career cut short, when acting on doctor’s advice, he an-

nounced his retirement. This was a result of some 20 concussions received during his entire career, a career that started way back in his teenage years. Sad but sensible decision. During a 264-game career he had many highlights. Three times premiership winner, 2013, 18, ‘19, played a test for Australia 2016, and three State of Origins in 2020. In the words of former coach Trent Robinson, “He was an incredible player and leader.” Two athletes with outstanding careers plus administrators who, during the off season, still work for the community.

T20 match to kick off cricket season at Read Park By Randall Woodley After months of preparation, planning and training, the Sunshine Coast Cricket Association 2022-23 cricket season officially commences next Saturday 17 September. The first ball to be bowled at Read Park will be at 1.30pm in the T20 Match involving the local club, Tewantin-Noosa Thunder First Graders and the Nambour Cutters. After a barbecue, the First-Grade boys will then play the Glasshouse Rangers in another T20 match starting at 6pm under the lights. The Thunder team was undefeated last season in this format of the game and will be keen to repeat their success this season. Most of last season’s all-conquering team will be lining up next Saturday and the captain, Jake Dennien, is confident the players will be in a good position to show their skills and continue on their winning way. The bar and canteen will be open in the afternoon and night. Other senior grades will begin their season on September 24 while the junior fixtures will start on Saturday 1 October. Captains and grades will be announced in the coming days. Training is held each Tuesday and Thursday nights. Juniors start at 4pm and Seniors at 5.15pm. New players are always welcome to come down to the nets and have a hit. This season also sees the return of a Tewantin-Noosa women’s team and an all-girls team in what is hoped to be a successful new junior girls’ league.

Temporary change rooms have been installed on site at Dale Officer Oval by Noosa Shire Council. These will be used by players until the new clubhouse is constructed. In the very near future the synthetic pitch at Mat Thornhill Oval will be resurfaced. Huge thanks to the Tewantin-Noosa RSL for donating much needed funds to get this project underway. The replacement sight screens for Dale Officer Oval will be delivered soon and installed, hopefully for the first matches for lower grades.

Sunshine on the move In an official club flyer released by the Sunshine Beach Surf Life Saving Club, all our community supporters will be pleased to learn that the club has appointed a husband and wife, ironman coaching duo team, ironman Wes Berg and iron woman Jade Berg (nee Sutcliffe). President Johnny Gooderham said, ‘’Having the Berg family join our club is a fabulous opportunity for our members. Both Jade and Wes are magnificent role models for both children and adults, their physical and mental training style is a bonus for us.” A move to Sunshine Beach with their young family, combined with the opportunity to train a good crew of athletes, was the motivation behind the couple accepting the coaching role. Wes Berg “I am incredibly excited to be part of such a family orientated club. This surf club is renowned for its community feel and it is the perfect for me and my family,” Wes Berg said. My wife and I are looking forward to immersing ourselves into the community and making this our home.” The major factor regarding this appointment, was that both bring with them not only an outstanding record of achievements, but also many years of experience. Coach Berg has, for a period of 10 years, served successfully as head coach of Burleigh Heads Surf Club, worked as a former strength and conditioning coach to a number of highprofile pro surfers, including Joel Parkinson. Parkinson trained exclusively under Wes on his way to a World Title in 2012. He was also chosen by global surf brand Billabong and Redbull, to train their elite athletes. He also competed for many years in the professional Nutri Grain Iron Man series, a series which enabled him to gain respect, incredible knowledge of the ocean and surf skills. This enables him to apply a tactical and skilful method to his training, which keep him racing well beyond his peers. It is this technique that sees him get results for both himself and others. Following a fiveyear stint at retail surf brand Vissia, he is keen to get back on the beach and teach the skills to the benefit of the Sunshine Beach club. “Coaching and mentoring is my passion and I am keen to return to the surf club envorinment. “I want to work with the athletes and get them to the best of their ability and at the same time I want to work with them mentally and emotionally, to ignite their spark for the ocean, training, competition and to enjoy what they do to be their best version.” Jade Berg This lady has an incredible racing repertoire, having qualified for the Uncle Toby’s Super Series as a 17-year-old and quickly rose to the top, finishing second behind ironwoman great Karla Gilbert in only her third season. Jade has won numerous Australian and State medals during her career and recently jumped back into the water for the 2021 Australian Masters Championships winning a gold and silver medal. She has maintained her connection with Surf Life Saving coaching nippers at Miami Beach Surf Club and more recently assistant coach at Burleigh Heads Surf Club in the 2021 season. Jade will assume the role as assistant coach of Sunshine Beach Surf club where she will be responsible for the Sunshine Beach Nipper surf program. “’I am incredibly excited to be the coach of the Sunshine Beach Nippers this season. I grew up as a nipper falling in love with the ocean and learning skills that I have used my entire life. “I can’t wait to share my knowledge with the kids this season and watch them flourish and grow.” To have a couple with such an extensive training experience is fantastic. They join the coaching team of Beach 46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 16 September, 2022

We are thrilled to have the Berg family join our community,” said the president. They will follow on the outstanding work of former head coach Josh Minogue, who left to pursue a career in the Queensland Fire and Emergency Service. Wes and Jade’s three children, daughters Miller-May 11, Billie, nine, and son Tally, five, will join them on the coast and will become a part of the Sunshine nippers. The family has joined a club that we in the life saving movement, and the community, have always looked upon as a great training ground for junior lifesavers, both in surf sports and patrolling. Their experience and attitude can only be beneficial. We wish them well. Rowing In the world of surf boat racing, all is looking good for the Noosa Heads Surf Club. Boat Captain Andrew Fox reports that they have six boat crews in training. “This season we are happy to report that we have an U19 men’s crew, two U19 women’s, one U23 women’s, one reserve grade women’s and a men’s masters. Also, we have just taken delivery of a new boat which will soon be launched. The sponsor’s name will be announced later in the week.” But the best news of all is that for the third season in a row, the Noosa Club will play host the Australia’s Surf Rowers League, Queensland Carnival . This will take place on 15 October at Noosa Main Beach starting at 9am. This is always a good day of racing and as the boats are a great spectator sport, a good crowd is always in attendance.

Competition kicks off at Noosa Little Athletics come and try day. Little Athletics As with the start of every Little Athletics season, last weekend was a come and train trial day. This is the day that the little children get to have their first attempt at athletics, running, hurdle races, broad jumping and other events. As this is a day of fun it is done at a cost of just $10 to the family. Head coach Mick Hooper was very pleased with the outcome.

“The first weekend the attendance was small, but this weekend was a great turnout with a total of 48 children on the track and field having a go. “We had a total of eight lanes on the running track, with each track having six kids lined up to have their turn at having a run.” This weekend some nine athletes will travel to Townsville to contest the North Queensland championships. We wish them and their families good luck.

Life of Brine Phil Jarratt - philjarratt.com

Long live Queen Steph At almost exactly the time that British Prime Minister Liz Truss was being informed of the death of Queen Elizabeth II, our seven-times world surfing champion Steph Gilmore was waxing her board at Lower Trestles, California, before paddling out for the first heat of the greatest day of her stellar surfing career. By the end of the day, we could truly say, the Queen is dead, long live the Queen! Although, like Steph, I was no great fan of the World Surf League’s final five playoffs series, introduced last year, by the end of a long night and early morning watching the action from California on the box, I had to admit that the format produced a horribly compelling day of surfing, reminiscent of the dancing marathons of the 1930s, as depicted in the film They Shoot Horses, Don’t They? For Steph and Brazil’s Italo Ferreira, the marathon of the WSL one-day finals involved surfing for almost three hours in five high pressure heats separated by only 35 minutes of rest time. Now surfing five heats in a day is certainly not unheard of in amateur competition, but placing such a physical and mental strain on professionals competing at the highest level is rare, particularly when the stakes are a world title and a lot of money. In Steph Gilmore’s case, the pressure was monumental, for not only was she just an outside chance for a world title, but the unlikely event of winning it would make her, statistically at least, the greatest female surfer of all time – the GFOAT, if you will – having overtaken Layne Beachley’s long-held record of seven world titles, which Steph has shared for a long time. In fact, at 34 and with career interests in music and film, she might understandably have said enough is enough and bowed out on lucky seven, but that’s not Steph’s style. And why walk away when you’re still capable of career-best performances? Which is what she needed to do to win at Trestles last week. Fool that I am, I forced myself out of bed soon after the finals began in the middle of the night our time, but not soon enough to see Steph falter in her first heat against world number four, Costa Rica’s Brisa Hennessy. (Catching up with it later on replay, I noted that Steph looked nervous and uncertain of the lineup in the early morning grey. But she pulled herself together to fight her way out of combo and progress.) Watching Steph’s next heat live was a revelation. She was on fire, never giving an in-form Tatiana Weston-Webb a chance. Lowers was a pretty dreary shoulder-high most of the time, coming to life a bit with the promised but irregular hemi-swell sets. But Steph made it glow – smooth takeoffs, powerful and graceful forehand turns and gouging cutbacks, on song every wave. Against France’s excellent Johanne Defay in the next she was even more dominating, crushing one of my favourite female surfers who isn’t Steph. And then it was on to the potential threesetter against world number one, the seemingly unbeatable Carissa Moore, for the 2022 world title. When they appeared on Chris Cote’s ridiculous apron-of-the-ring set, so he could say, “Ladeez and gentlemen, surfing for the championship of the world,” like a lot of people, I was tempted to say to myself, well Steph, you gave it a great shot, no shame there. Then I looked at her eyes. Carissa Moore is a brilliant, worthy multiple world champion, and Steph made her look out of her depth, not up to the challenge. Unbelievable. Straight sets. Exhausted, joyful, tearful, Steph paddled over to WSL water reporter Strider Wozz and let out the biggest crow call for all the world to hear. In a career of great moments, this was her greatest. So the men’s, ahem. Our boys Jack Robinson and Ethan Ewing, both brilliant all season and sitting at two and three respectively, surfed once each and went home without ever threatening the rampaging Ferreira. But it was not to be Italo’s day either. The surf was made

ON THE COVER

LIVE THE DREAM RIVERSIDE WITH ROOFTOP POOL AND VIEWS WISH for a pool atop a luxury townhome on the foreshore of the Noosa River at the quiet end of Gympie Terrace with a northerly aspect, stunning 360-degree views sweeping Noosa Heads, Noosa River Spit, Noosaville and beyond, plus year-round lashings of sun? Here it is. And all yours. Open the front door into the sandy-tiled entryway where the lift will glide you to living-central on the second level or if you insist take the stairs. Notice how brilliant light dances across the honey-hued timber floor in the overgenerous, open plan living and dining spaces, whilst practicality, calmness, plantation shutters and an affinity for neutrals underpin a Bahamas-inspired chic aesthetic. It coalesces in a harmonious fashion with the north and westerly L-shaped alfresco terrace, which is perfect for all seasons and any reason for lunches and dinners. If you have a penchant however, for the more laid back style, pop up the circular staircase for an incomparable space - the rooftop. Apart from drinking in awe-inspiring wide panoramas including direct water views to the main channel of the river, see the passing parade of pleasure craft, fishermen on the riverbank, and pelicans hoping they get lucky too. Sip sundowners and enjoy a barbeque on the large terrace, up a few steps is perfect for catching stray rays, or lolling on a sun lounge under an umbrella, and when it is time to cool off, the pool awaits.

The contemporary kitchen with grey stone-topped white cabinetry and island/ breakfast bar, has all the bells and whistles for culinary creations to suit every taste bud and whim. On the same level in the east wing is the master suite, with a north-facing terrace, walk-in robe, and ensuite with granite mosaic feature tiles. Nearby is a powder room and a laundry. On the lower level are two queen-size bedrooms with built-in robes, bathroom with a tub and a separate toilet. The location really is second-to-none. Fifty metres away is the water’s edge, a boardwalk for delightful sunsets, watching activity on the river, casting a rod for a delicious feed of flathead, or walking a few steps further where it joins with Gympie Terrace and a myriad of well-known restaurants, cafes, bars, and take-outs beckon. There are jetties to catch the Noosa Ferry to Hastings Street, leisure craft hire companies, shallow waters for safe swimming, and an adjoining parkland dotted with gazebos. “Opportunities so close to the water and in such a prestigious location are ultra-rare,” explains Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Lauren Chen who is taking the townhome to auction on Saturday 24 September 2022. “This is the domain of the canny and on the wish list of many looking for the magical power of a lifestyle change or investment, in Australia’s favourite holiday destination.” ●

TRANQUIL ACREAGE, CLOSE TO NOOSA THE area of Weyba Downs was officially named in 1991. Weyba is thought to mean “place of stingrays or flying Squirrels” but if you’ve been to visit the shores of this beautiful lake, it’s most probably the former. The area was originally inhabited by the Gubbi Gubbi tribe and later Europeans settled there catching fish and living off the land. This special suburb is home to approximately 110 families. Most homes are nestled amid Paperbark trees and everyone can enjoy beautiful views over the waters of Lake Weyba by

taking advantage of the forest and picnic spots scattered around the lake. The average price of property is just under $1.9m and most blocks in the area are level, 5000m2 or more. The proud owners of 165 Eumarella Dr have asked Heart & Sold Real Estate to offer their home to the market. Immaculately maintained, this 4 bedroom home offers its owners the enviable opportunity to live in the quiet tranquillity of nature, whilst Noosa and the conveniences of modern living, are only 10-15 minutes’ drive away.

Over 6000m2 of land has created the space to build a triple garage plus an additional carport and more recently, an impressive shed with industrial specs. There is more than enough space to build a 2nd dwelling, should this be required and being a corner block, could have a separate entrance (STCA). Accommodation comprises four bedrooms, including a spacious parents’ retreat with walk-in wardrobe and quality ensuite. Enhanced by recent updates, the spacious single level layout features split living zones, formal lounge, plus

home office area. The home has excellent indoor/outdoor flow, beautiful views of all the gardens and quality air-conditioning. The verandah provides an idyllic setting overlooking the grassy back yard and natural bush, just perfect for alfresco dining, relaxing or weekend barbecues with friends. The fully fenced block provides endless space for pets and children to run and play. Contact Simon or Madi to arrange a private inspection to secure your place in this exclusive location. ●

LOCATION, LIFESTYLE AND LOVELY VIEWS WHETHER you love golf or are simply seeking a peaceful small acreage in a delightful natural setting, this charming property fits the bill perfectly. With 8,504m2 of land backing onto the Noosa Valley Golf Course, it offers privacy, space, and a northerly aspect with superb views over the trees and fairways. An elegant, single level colonial style home, clad in western red cedar timber with a Colorbond roof, sits in an elevated position on the gently sloping block. It boasts shady full-length covered verandahs on two sides, with the rear verandah affording an elevated outlook across the property to the golf course. Either is ideal for spending time with family and friends, enjoying the fresh air and sounds of native birdlife. Or you can entertain indoors in a choice of two living areas, one of which features a cosy fireplace perfect for winter evenings. The country-style kitchen boasts a dishwasher, gas cooktop and large windows framing the lovely views. For parents or couples, the generous main bedroom suite includes a walk-in robe and ensuite with a twin-basin vanity. Three other bedrooms have built-in robes, and any of them could work equally well as a study or home office.

Also under roof is a laundry and bathroom with separate toilet. Connected to the home by a covered breezeway is lockup garaging for three vehicles, with a wide apron for easy turning. There’s also plenty of room for parking your RV, caravan or boat. Further features include a sparkling inground pool with

cabana, partial fencing, park-like lawns, and a pretty tree-lined dam. Water should be plentiful with 2 x 5,000 gallon rain water tanks. With an address in ultra-desirable Doonan, the property is within easy driving distance of several schools, as well as Noosa Civic shopping centre. For beach

days, high-end shopping and dining, Noosa Heads is only 15 minutes from your doorstep. Properties in this exclusive enclave are tightly held, so this presents a rare opportunity. The property is currently tenanted, so we welcome your inspection during scheduled open homes. ●

A word from Olivier Miller, Principal at Laguna Real Estate Local papers are a vital component of any successful real estate campaign so I am an avid supporter of newspaper advertising and understand the importance of market saturation. Whilst some buyers come from on-line advertising, many come from print. In Noosa, locals and tourists search for the local paper with the intention of looking at Real Estate. Sellers choosing not to advertise in print are ill advised and are automatically reducing potential buyers to their property which in turn reduces competition. The greater the competition the greater the ability to secure a higher price! Here at Laguna Real Estate we strongly recommend all our sellers incorporate print in their marketing campaigns and are happy to discuss the various options available in this valuable medium. - Olivier Miller

Olivier Miller Principal of Laguna Real Estate

Ask your agent - will my home be seen in a local newspaper and online by an engaged local audience?
