Their market of sucess By Phil Jarratt

When you create an event in Noosa it’s as easy to make enemies as friends, and you tend to get blamed for everything from the weather to the traffic to the tyre tracks in the car park. But if you stand by your creation and its values, it will survive, and it might even thrive. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Noosa Farmers Market on another packed Sunday morning at Rococo Oval last weekend, Shane Stanley and wife Ish could feel quietly proud that their baby has done both, evolving from a tiny operation in the corner of the Noosa Tigers’ AFL grounds in 2002 to a sprawling market of nearly 100 stalls, still on the same site, a successful family business employing eight people, a major tourist attraction and, most importantly, providing the financial lifeblood to around 3000 people in the local agricultural sector. It hasn’t been an easy ride to get here, and along the way Shane has had his share of blues and stoushes with councils, irate shopkeepers and a few disgruntled stallholders, as well as suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune in the form of droughts, floods, and a pandemic. But the Farmers Market has barely missed a beat, and for the last eight years it’s had a Saturday twin at Kawana, while Shane has also mentored similar markets all over regional Queensland.

Fire spotter trial 12572850-DL42-22

Artificial intelligence (AI) and ultra-highdefinition cameras are being trialed in Noosa Council as part of the Firetech Connect Program to demonstrate and test novel approaches to bushfire detection. Noosa Council is the first council in Queensland to partner with US tech company Pano AI to trial 360-degree, ultra-high definition cameras and advanced AI technology to

detect fires early, verify their location and provide real-time intelligence. The intention of the trial is to demonstrate the capabilities of the new technology to improve reaction and response to fires. By proving the efficacy of these solutions in real world environments, the hope is that these innovative technologies will be adopted more quickly by other local and state agencies.

Pano Stations have been installed at Mt Tinbeerwah lookout in Tewantin National Park and on Black Mountain to continuously scan the landscape to patrol and identify potential bushfire activity. Mayor Clare Stewart said real-time information makes all the difference. “This is cutting-edge technology that helps safeguard our community,” she said.

“Rapid confirmation of a fire may help our fire emergency personnel to identify and extinguish a blaze before it becomes a threat,” she said. “This council is driving big changes to traditional fire detection measures to do what we can to avoid a repeat of the 2019 bushfires,” Cr Stewart said.

December has arrived bringing with it thoughts of Christmas giving and holidays. As cost of living expenses have skyrocketed along with increasing rent and mortgage expenses finding something extra for Christmas is becoming more difficult if not impossible for some Noosa families. Fortunately, there is help available and many people who give generously each year to assist others in need. Last week Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart launched an appeal to support the work of six local charities - Salvation Army Noosa, St Vincent de Paul Noosa, Santa’s Classy Helpers, Youturn Youth Support, Sunny Kids and WomenKind with donations accepted through council’s website at noosa.qld.gov. au This week Noosa Salvo’s kicked off their own appeal as they prepared Christmas hampers for the increased number of people they have been assisting this year. Donations can be dropped off at their Bartlett St, Noosaville, visit salvationarmy.org.au or call 13 SALVOS (13 72 58). Santa’s Classy Helpers will again be helping hundreds of Noosa families enjoy their Christmas with gifts of toys, food and toiletries. For more visit them on Facebook. The arrival of the holidays always raises the question of how to entertain the kids when you need a break from the beach.

No one left in need As the Salvation Army on Tuesday launched its statewide Christmas Appeal with the aim of raising $3.1 million, Noosaville Salvos were busy putting together 150 hampers for local families and preparing a community Christmas lunch, their final weekly community lunch for the year. Lieutenant Matthew Gluyas said Noosa Salvos had this year seen an increase in the numbers of people needing their help due to skyrocketing costs of living and fuel expenses. “We’re seeing people we’ve never seen before,“ he said. “It’s just building. There’s a bit of a stigma around asking for help but there shouldn’t be, life is tough for everyone at some time.“ The Salvos’ hampers will be going to individuals and families to provide them with some food, toys for the kids and gift vouchers to get them through that Christmas season. Lieutenant Gluyas said the goods were a combination of purchases from community funds and donations from the generous local community but the Noosaville Salvation Army is hoping to raise $10,000 more to support children and their families over this Christmas period across Noosa and Coolum. “We’re expecting even more individuals and families will need support so that no one is left in need and no child goes without a gift on Christmas Day,” he said. “If you can afford to lend a hand or make a donation, you’ll be making a huge difference to those who are really struggling. “We are in need of gift cards for teenagers, and toys and non-perishable foods, which can be dropped off at 6/8 Bartlett St, Noosaville. Or if you’d like to volunteer, please contact our office on 5442 4218.” On Tuesday students from St Andrews College lent a hand to pack hampers as did some

Reach out to people, spend time with those you care about, and if Christmas is a hard or lonely time for

you, remember that your local Salvos family is always just down the road.” The Salvation Army invites everyone to its events, church services or community programs during the festive season and if you’re looking for affordable Christmas shopping options consider Salvos Stores. Last Christmas The Salvation Army nationally distributed more than 64,000 hampers and vouchers to those struggling to make ends meet, 26,000 gifts and toys to families who might otherwise have gone without, 130,000 meals and provided more than 66,000 beds for over 10,000 families in need of accommodation.

No excuses: Time to act By Danielle Galvin In the first few pages of the National Plan to End Violence Against Women and Children, there is a profound statement from victimsurvivors. The plan has been described across the sector as bold, ambitious, and world-leading - a line in the sand moment. “It is time to transform our pain into action. There can be no more excuses – that it is too hard, we don’t know what to do, it’s too complex,” the statement from members of the Independent Collective of Survivors reads. “It is everyone’s responsibility to end the perpetration of violence against women and children, and all victims of gendered violence.” On 17 October, the Federal Government released the blueprint providing a broad snapshot of the domestic violence scourge in Australian society, as well as committing to a nation free from gender-based violence within a generation. The plan will be implemented through two, five-year action plans which will detail specific state government actions and investment to implement the objectives across each of the four domains: prevention, early intervention, response, and recovery and healing. The plan commits to 10 years of “sustained action, effort and partnership across sectors and levels of government”. “To achieve this, we must listen to and be guided by victim-survivors and people with lived experience,” the plan states. It’s well documented that in Australia one woman dies every 10 days at the hands of their former or current partner. One in three women have experienced physical violence, since the age of 15, and one in five have experienced sexual violence. The plan was developed with state and territory governments, victim-survivors, advocacy groups, specialised services, researchers as well as key stakeholders from the health, law, justice sectors, business and community groups. Federal Social Services Minister Amanda Rishworth said it gives a clear blueprint for the next decade. “Current rates of family, domestic and sexual violence are unacceptable. We want to make these changes now so the next generation of women and children can live in a society free from violence,” she said. “We need sustained and collective action across society. This includes providing better support and protection to victim-survivors and holding people who choose to use violence to account,” Professor Kate FitzGibbon, the director of the Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre, said domestic, family and sexual violence was a national crisis. “This is world-leading,” she said. “It sets the ambition to create a whole of system response that not only supports victim-survivors to survive but to thrive beyond their experience of violence. “This National Plan represents the outcome of significant consultation and advocacy na-

Now is the time to translate these commitments into meaningful actions.” While the plan is broad in nature, there are some specific, important threads. The National Plan includes a focus on: Advancing gender equality and addressing other forms of discrimination that create the social context in which violence against women and children occurs. The critical role of changing attitudes to stop violence from happening before it starts through national prevention efforts. Embedding effective early intervention ap-

proaches across the whole of society of victim-survivors receiving suitable housing, increasing capacity of frontline services, as well as increasing the proportion of perpetrators held accountable through the justice system. The Australian Human Rights Commission welcomed the plan, while calling on governments around the country to commit resources to ensure the plan can succeed. “It’s encouraging that all Australian governments have backed the plan and its ambitious target to end gender-based violence within a generation. For this to succeed, all governments will need to make significant investments in prevention and recovery strategies,“

National Sex Discrimination Commissioner Kate Jenkins said. Australia’s National Research Organisation for Women’s Safety Limited (ANROWS) has been at the forefront of the shifting understanding of children and young people’s experiences of domestic and family violence. “Children and young people’s experiences of domestic and family violence differs from their parents’, in terms of their impacts and outcomes on their health and wellbeing. The new National Plan acknowledges the importance of young people’s experiences and voices in designing effective programs and responses,“ ANROWS chief executive officer Padma Raman said.

Mayor Clare Stewart places a candle in a shoe to remember the women whose lives were lost to domestic violence.

Taking stance against DV By Margie Maccoll Women fleeing domestic violence don’t have the option of waiting for fine weather so despite the heavy rain last Sunday evening, the Zonta Club of Noosa in partnership with Noosa Police and Noosa Council felt they too should continue with their event to highlight gender-based violence. Each year, aligning themselves with Zonta International, the Zonta Club of Noosa participates in the United Nations’ Women’s 16 Days of Activism campaign calling for action against one of the world’s most persistent violations of human rights - violence against women, Zonta’s Tracey Stubbs told the gathering. Noosa police acting officer-in-charge Sergeant Neil Ashley provided some sobering statistics on the incidence of domestic violence in Queensland before enlightening the group with a first-hand account on the changes to policing that occurred with the introduction of the Domestic Violence Act in Queensland in 1989. Sgt Ashley had just completed his academy training in 1989 where he was taught about the new Act and new powers it delivered to police to tackle domestic violence before being deployed to duty where the legislation rocked the old guard. “This legislation was a significant change in police and court responsibilities and powers with respect to investigating, enforcing and improving the safety of victims of domestic violence, usually women,“ he said. Prior to the law being enacted a man’s home was his castle, what went on behind closed doors was a private matter and police did not enter someone’s home without a very good reason and usually a warrant. “When the Domestic Violence Act came to power it provided power for police to enter and remain to investigate reports of domestic violence,“ Sgt Ashley said. “This was a huge change. It took some senior police of the day some time to get used to having these powers.“ Since 1989 much has changed in policing with increased training, more in-depth investigations and Sgt Ashley expected further

Many would think not enough had changed, “not fast enough“ and he agreed, praising Zonta for their action. “Public attitudes take time to shift,“ he said. “It’s events such as these that can help bring some focus to the issue and speed up a shift in public attitudes. “What doesn’t change is the way women facing DV situations feel and one question police ask during investigations is ‘do you feel scared in your relationship - ever?’ Because

you should never have to feel scared in your relationship,“ he said. In the 2021-22 financial year there were more than 138,800 DV incidents recorded by police in Queensland. There were almost 47,000 breaches of DV protection orders (20,500 more than in 2017-18) and there were more than 2100 cases of strangulation in a domestic setting (1000 more than in 2017-18). There were five DV murders in Queensland in the past year - four women, aged 46, 47, 45 and 71 and one 20-year-old man, all killed by males. Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart described the statistics as “frightening“, saying each woman was a mother, daughter, sister, friend.

Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart addresses the gathering. She highlighted council’s efforts in providing assistance to Shine Houses which provide crisis accommodation to women and children fleeing domestic violence, in being the first council to enable tiny homes for people at risk to be placed on public land and in being involved in a taskforce working on the issue. “We need to do everything we can to bring it to an end,“ she said. Sunday’s rain did force the cancellation of a march planned to honour those women who have lost their lives through domestic violence but participants lit candles to remember them, placing a candle in the many pairs of shoes collected - each pair representing a life lost in the past year in Australia.

Farmers Market turns 20 From page 1 Born in Brisbane, Shane certainly didn’t grow up ploughing fields or herding cattle, and in his early working years as a musician and promoter he didn’t see much daylight. But he liked the idea of the land, and felt an affinity with farmers. So when Brisbane foodie identity the late Jan Power approached him to set up a stall promoting a pub restaurant he had on his client list at her new farmers market in Brisbane, he was all in. “So I did it and it was great, and I thought if I ever get the opportunity… I just thought Jan had a great concept,” Shane said. As it happened, he and Ish decided to move the family to Noosa, where he was soon contacted by Wendy Birrell, who had recently bought Eats At Eumundi, had heard that Shane had some market experience and asked him to help establish a farmers market along Jan Power lines in Eumundi. He says: “We set up in the market space on Sundays and it was quite popular, but immediately the community wanted a piece of it. The committee got too top-heavy with people who wanted to do it their way, while I wanted to do it for the farmers, so I resigned.” But the Noosa foodie tribe had other ideas. Next, he was approached by fabled restaurateur Leonie Palmer who asked him to consider setting up a farmers market for Noosa, and introduced him to local food gurus like Peter Howard and Jim Berardo who urged him on. Shane says: “I was just 29 and to be honest I felt a bit intimidated, but they were very encouraging so I decided to give it a go. “When Noosa Council told me I couldn’t do it on their land, I went looking for a private lease, and that led me to the Noosa Tigers AFL club, which had a lease from the state government. The club president and I did a handshake deal and we were in.”

Another happy customer at Noosa Farmers Market. The first market followed about a month later and far exceeded Shane’s modest expectations. “We had 28 stalls, each paying $38 to be there. I’d set a budget of $1000 to promote it and run it, so we’d pretty much covered that. But what blew me away was the number of people who turned up on the back of one little ad in the paper! We had more than 500 customers that day. “The stalls were all farmers except for a cof-

fee guy and a bacon and eggs guy, which was to feed the farmers. “We ended up creating a whole food court and it became a big part of what we do. The farmers were all local and mostly from the traditional farmlands in the hinterland and Mary Valley. We’ve gone a bit further afield these days, but it’s still dominated by this region.” Although Shane didn’t know it at the time, he and Ish had established the Noosa Farmers Market just as southern Queensland was mov-

As the drought got worse, many of the stallholders dropped out because they had no produce to sell. “I was determined to stay true to what it was about – local produce – but I remember thinking if it doesn’t rain in the next two weeks, I’m closing down,” he recalled.

“Then, not only did it rain, but the federal government offered me significant financial assistance because they saw it as a model for farmers markets. They have disaster relief packages now but back then there was nothing, so this offer was just amazing. And it got us over the hump.” Increasingly severe weather events have

affected quite a few stallholders at different times, but Shane says that over the 20 years they’ve only lost one full weekend’s trade. During the Covid lockdowns farmers markets were deemed essential business, but Shane says he still copped flak in the community for continuing to trade. “My feeling was that with the rest of Noosa

shut down, we had to keep going. “Some people claimed we were a superspreader event, but the health department had all the data and they knew that wasn’t the case. I think there were only three infections directly linked to us. “We were outside and we were doing everything right.

“I left mask-wearing up to the individuals but we were handing them out at the gate and the police would come down to ensure that was happening. “Yes, I copped a lot of flak over that period but I regard the fact that we didn’t let it stop us as one of our greatest achievements. My motto was don’t listen to the noise, just keep going.” When a Sunshine Coast University study revealed than 30 per cent of the Noosa Farmers Market’s customers were coming from the southern end of the Sunshine Coast, Shane thought it made sense to open a companion market for them, so he leased land from Kawana Waters State College and opened a Saturday market. Not only has the customer base for both markets continued to grow, but the vast majority of stallholders now attend both. Not only is this good for the Stanley family business, but it also creates a larger direct retail income stream for local farmers and producers. “We now represent about 300 farms and from that base we have around 130 stallholders. Some of them are co-ops and some people just make arrangements to sell their neighbour’s produce as well as their own. “The guys who sell exclusively at our markets are doing very well by retailing direct, setting their own prices rather than having Coles or Woolworths set them for you. “But we accept all farmers, whether they sell by other means or not. We don’t take percentages from anyone’s sales, so they get the whole retail price. “Our revenue comes from stall fees, which range from $178 to $400, depending on size and position within the market.” Over the Covid period, the Stanleys also moved into home delivery and a click and collect program, both of which have now been integrated into the market’s new website. It’s a good business model for the managers and the sellers, but Shane Stanley is nudging 50 now. Will he be doing the markets for another 20 years? “Never say never, but I don’t plan that far ahead.”

Seafood honour for Chris By Phil Jarratt Possibly the least-known outcome of the long grind of inquests and trials in the Lindy Chamberlain case which dominated the headlines throughout the 1980s is that it inspired a Cooroy man to begin a storied career that has seen him recently inducted into the National Seafood Industry Hall of Fame. Don’t get the connection? Nor did Noosa Today, until Dr Chris Calogeras, one of Australia’s leading experts in wild harvest resource management, explained how a knockabout kid from Fremantle, travelling overland to Indonesia, fetched up broke in Darwin and found a job in the Justice Department ferreting through mountains of forensic evidence, most of which would eventually be disproven. Chris recalls: “I was fascinated by the science, the collecting of evidence, running assessments and analysis and then making determinations. It was exciting. So I went back to school and got a diploma in environmental science while I did a traineeship in the Northern Territory Fisheries department.” Although there was plenty of fish eaten at the Calogeras Greek family home, Chris wasn’t particularly passionate about catching them, and certainly didn’t foresee a career in the industry. But one too many sweltering 36-degree days putting ceilings into Darwin’s new hospital to pay the rent and he rang a mate to see if there was a job going in the public service. Thus began a journey of nearly 40 years that took him to the seafood industry’s highest accolade. When you look at Chris’s career path, it’s not hard to see why. Working within government for the first 20 years and as an independent consultant for the second, he epitomises the kind of approach that has taken fishing from a cowboy

But the first job to be done was to lay down some rules. Chris recalls: “The very clear message I got

needed in the NT in those days. “There was too much fishing, so we had to be prepared to go and have them yell at us until they calmed down and we could negotiate. The reality at the time was that everyone could get a license and you just went out and caught fish - mullet here, barra there, crab over there.

Installing experimental tunnel nets for the Moreton Bay Seafood Industry Association. Dr Chris Calogeras with his Hall of Fame award.

Researching in New Zealand with Northern Land Council chairman Samuel Bush-Blanasi.

On the job with NT crabbers.

“But the economists thought this was incredibly inefficient, that the crabbers should catch crab, the barra fishers catch barra and so on. Imposing that meant fishermen had to make life choices, rather than being simple hunter-gatherers, which led to some very heated discussions. “It was hard, but I’m still mates with quite a few of them.” During his time with the Territory Justice department, one of Chris’s jobs had been to accompany magistrates to court sittings in remote Aboriginal communities, and he had developed a rapport that helped as Fisheries began to deal with the prickly issue of Native Title over fishing grounds. He says: “At Fisheries, the first thing we focused on was maximising catch and then maximising sustainability, looking at the by-catch and threatened species. “Next, we looked at the people who were there first. “It took a while to happen, but by the time I was nearing the end of my government time, we were setting up programs to work better with the Aboriginal people. We had to look at the traditional fishing grounds and work out protocols for their use. “In those days some recreational fishermen would ask permission to fish a certain area, but most didn’t. “Commercial fishermen often did and made some sort of deal to share catch. But the legislative position was very weak until after

Mabo and Native Title.” At the start of the new century Chris decided to strike out on his own with a consultancy firm he called C-AID. Much of the new firm’s early work was in negotiating with and for First Nations communities. He recalls: “I’d been working a lot with mud crabbers who were mainly Viet and Cambodian refugees, so I took on a contract with a big export company which was looking to access Aboriginal land for crabbing. “I’d go out to the communities and start the negotiation process. I went to amazing places and met amazing people.” The job also led to a connection with the Northern Land Council and the Blue Mud Bay court case which was a game-changer in First Nations fishing rights, often described as the High Court’s most significant land rights ruling since the Mabo case led to the creation of the Native Title Act. Says Chris: “I led a group from the NLC on a research trip to New Zealand to see how the Maori had navigated their way through similar rights situations. That was really my beginning in doing a lot of work on important Indigenous fishing projects, and it’s carried on from there. “It became really clear that there was a gap [between Indigenous and European fishing], and the Fisheries Research Development Corporation decided they would fast track investment to try to close it, so they set up the Indigenous Reference Group.

“That program has been running for 10 or 11 years and it has led to many policy changes - often subtle, no sledgehammer - and we’re now seeing each state and territory putting in place Indigenous work programs within their structure. “None of it is easy. “There are massive challenges but a lot of the change that is happening has come from the work of the IRG.” Chris now serves on the board of the Fisheries Research Development Corporation where two of his pet projects are creating a broader understanding of sustainability and fostering more research data through recreational fishers. He says: “In fishing, without sustainability you have nothing. “But what is sustainable for an Aboriginal person might be quite different from the European model. “For example, if someone in the industry is researching fish stock in a certain area, he might determine that it’s fine, but an Aboriginal might say, it’s not fine if I can’t catch a tailor for dinner out front of my place. “Unless you have the right people in the room who can examine every aspect of sustainability, we’re always going to be in trouble. “When I started in the industry the idea of sustainability was that you needed to make sure you could catch enough to make money. “Now it’s about are we protecting the habitat, are we protecting the species, is the ecosystem being properly managed?” Taking a deep breath, he says of the powerful recreational fishing sector: “In many fisheries today the recreational proportion of the catch is greater than the commercial. Snapper in southern Australia, barra in the NT, for example. “Commercial fishing is organised now, operating under strict rules, often boat cameras in place, satellite observation. “With recreational fishing there’s a broad spectrum from the casual to the committed and no data for modelling for better economic, social and ecological outcomes. We know to the kilo what and where the commercials are catching, so what are the recs catching?

“Too often we don’t know, so in the future I think there is going to be greater responsibility placed on recreational fishers to manage themselves, with government assistance. “I think it can be quite a light hand, perhaps a licensing system, a data collection program like the commercials have. “I think most people who fish are good stewards because they want to keep utilising the resource, but it might be they need better education about why there are no fish, rather than just blame it on commercial operators, of whom there are far fewer today than 30 years ago.” Having lived in Noosa Shire for 12 years now, Chris has watched with interest the debate over the restoration of the Noosa River, although the majority of his work is on national projects. He says: “Habitat is everything and it needs to be managed, which is why the oyster bed regeneration is a good idea. “I hope they’ve done their homework on how it’s been installed, but it has worked in several other places and should work here. “The real problem for the Noosa River is that around the estuary there is very little native vegetation. “It’s been developed out. The things that influence fish stock start with habitat, then pollutants, then climate, then migratory impacts. “The commercial fishing pressures are nothing like they were years ago because there’s no fishing fleet here anymore, so fish stock can be improved. “The FRDC is working with groups like OzFish on a variety of habitat enhancement projects, and hopefully there will be more in the future.” While Dr Chris Calogeras and C-AID are still going strong, induction into the Hall of Fame has made him reflective about his many achievements in the fishing industry. “I guess I’m most proud that I can look back on the number of people I’ve helped find their right place in the industry, which aligns with my philosophy of trying to make myself more redundant by building skills and capacity around me. “For a consultant, that might be a bit dumb, but that’s the way I like it.”

No date for landslip work By Margie Maccoll Sabroan Street residents are fed up after seven months of dealing with a closed street as they wait for repairs to a bank-slip, the second landslip in two years, and have raised safety concerns over diverted traffic down their normally quiet street. However, Noosa Council’s infrastructure services director Larry Sengstock described the repair work as a “significant project“ requiring a two-stage fix that was dependent on a number of factors including state government funding and the availability of contractors, making it impossible to provide “firm timelines“. Sabroan Street resident Robert Petterwood said when the initial slippage occurred in 2020, the area wasn’t completely repaired, “hence it’s slipped again“. “Originally one of the mowing contractors noticed movement along Sobroan Street to the beach. [Council] found a section of road had moved down the road and into the creek. They had a major problem, more in Tingira street when a water pipe burst causing a sink hole - a massive hole,“ he said. As soon as that was repaired, council replaced the bridge on David Low Way, diverting the traffic during the roadworks from the main road one way along Sobroan. “We went from a quiet suburban street to a main highway with 12,000 cars a day on it. The movement in Sobroan Street exacerbated it all,“ Rob said. “They closed Sobroan and did a major repair job. That took several months. They drilled down and put down stabilisers, put rods vertically into the side of the bank, then at 45 degrees and tied them together with a concrete beam for about three-quarters of the way along Sobroan where the creek is. “That seemed to work.“ During the Easter weekend Rob noticed the

Sabroan Street residents want their street repaired and open to traffic. section of bank without stabilising rods had moved substantially so he informed council. The area was inspected and a barrier of a chain wire fence put around the slippage. In the first week of May there was heavy rain. The whole bank went, leaving the path suspended in mid-air, Rob said. New stormwater pipes were installed - the stormwater was undercutting the bank so they diverted the stormwater, he said. Rob said while council keep a reasonable eye on the area, residents have been left without street access directly to the beach from David Low Way for seven months, resulting in a considerable amount of traffic detouring along what was previously a quiet neighbourhood street, and residents expect traffic to increase markedly during the school holidays. “Everybody in the neighbourhood is in uproar,“ Rob said. “We have no indication of a finish date for

the works and when the street will reopen.“ Council’s Larry Sengstock set out the process involved in the two-stage repair work, with the first stage of stormwater work completed in October. “The first phase involved diverting underground stormwater connections at the Sobraon and Vernon Streets intersection,“ he said. “This work was required to permanently redirect the stormwater outfall from the impacted slope area to a new connection along David Low Way. “Phase two includes the stabilisation of the slope.“ A design treatment involving the placement of additional rock fill and gabion baskets has been selected to facilitate a relatively short construction timeframe, he said. Mr Sengstock said construction timing depends on when the detailed designs are final-

ised, the procurement process and availability of contractors. “Unfortunately, we cannot provide firm timeframes until the construction procurement process is complete, which we hope will be done early in the new year,” he said. “In consultation with the Queensland Reconstruction Authority (QRA), council has sought approval for reconstruction funding through the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA) as part of our response to the severe weather events earlier this year. The total cost of the project is still subject to the procurement process.“ Residents also raised concerns about traffic safety, saying there had been several “near misses“ on the open section of Sabroan Street since the road closure and they feared an accident was imminent. Resident Max Futcher said he feared for the safety of the many children that used the street and walked to the beach and the many dogs that were walked in the area. In response, Mr Sengstock said council was gathering traffic data to inform any necessary temporary traffic control treatments to help manage traffic over the busier holiday period. “The timing and implementation of a temporary traffic control treatment is dependent on the traffic data results and other safety considerations. If viable, Council will be looking to implement any treatment as soon as practical. The closed section of Sobraon Street remains open to pedestrians,” he said. “We have updated residents on the progress throughout this extreme rain event asset failure, and we are committed to keeping them updated as new information becomes available. Council acknowledges this unfortunate and complex event’s effect on the local residents. We would like to thank residents for their understanding and patience whilst we work to deliver a suitable solution, as soon as we can.”

Night works on for bypass Work on the Gympie Bypass is forging ahead with night works scheduled to take place on three bridge sites over the next few months. Federal Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien said the bypass was on track to open in 2024, and motorists may experience some minor delays over the next few months while bridge work takes place. “Section D, the four-lane 26-kilometre Cooroy to Curra realignment and upgrade requires the construction of new bridges, so from late November 2022 to January 2023, motorists may experience detours and minor delays due to the delivery and installation of concrete barriers and girders. “This work will be done at night, between 6pm and 6am to minimise disruption,”

Mr O’Brien said. “It is important that motorists follow the guidance of road crews and observe lowered speed limits through the work sites.” Night works at East Deep Creek Road between 27 November and 1 December will involve detouring traffic via Randwick and Williams Roads. This detour is not suitable for heavy vehicles, and trucks will need to be escorted through the closure area and may experience delays of up to 10 minutes. Concrete bridge girders will also be delivered and installed on Gympie Connection Road at Victory Heights and at Tamaree Creek. “The former Coalition Government allocated $800 million for the Gympie Bypass in 2018, primarily because the Cooroy to Curra section

of the Bruce Highway has consistently been rated as one of the deadliest along our national highway,” Mr O’Brien said. “More than 11,000 vehicles travel on this part of the Bruce Highway every day and when completed, Section D will eliminate eight sets of traffic lights and deliver four lanes to support the safe and efficient movement of cars and trucks, even when the Mary River floods.”

Auctions set two records Both properties have a close connection to the water yet that is where similarities ended … until auction day. Stealing the auction limelight last weekend was the Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo’s listing of 21 Dolphin Cres, Noosaville. It was touted on a recent cover of Noosa Today Property as “whatever floats your boat is here” and lots more, according to the myriad quality inquiries and inspections prior to the auction. The inspiring two-level, four-bedroom residence and a well-proportioned design stretching widthways, on a tranquil deep and wide blue reach of Hideaway Island with not a house in sight, pays homage to the location and environment.

Keen to make it their home were three registered bidders. After opening at $7m, bids rose rapidly until it was sold under the hammer to Queensland buyers for $12m, a new record for Noosaville. The result surpassed all sale prices of other waterfront homes, even on two and three blocks of land. Earlier in the week, the second suburb with a new property record was Sunrise Beach. An epic absolute beachfront 716sq m site, the eighth and last available in the exclusive highly prized Noosa’s Beaches estate is poised perfectly mere footsteps to white sand. Listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Cameron Urquhart and principal Tom Offermann, 7 Beaches Noosa, at 56 David Low Way,

The waterfront residence attracted strong interest. Sunrise Beach, was sold immediately after last week’s auction for a sum well in excess of the $10m to a long-term client of the agency. With two record sales in one week, arguably that is a record in itself.

Kin Kin Road bitumen resealing works about to start Bitumen resealing on almost 8km of Kin Kin Road is set to begin late this month. Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said resealing was one of a number of initiatives underway to maintain and improve Kin Kin Road. “Bitumen resealing provides a waterproofing layer, improves skid resistance, and helps extend the life of the road,“ Mr Bailey said. “Maintenance crews have been working hard to repair potholes and other roadway issues, but the ongoing wet weather has proved challenging. “The bitumen resealing is a waterproofing maintenance treatment to protect the underlying roadway ahead of the upcoming wet season. “Larger road repairs are being done prior

to the bitumen resealing. “On top of this, we also recently rolled out vehicle activated signs along Kin Kin Road to remind all vehicles but especially heavy vehicles to slow down.” Mr Bailey said further treatment of sections within the work area may be required following the resealing works, and TMR would continue to monitor the road and attend to repairs as required. Resealing works are scheduled to start from late November and will take place during the day, Monday to Friday between 7am and 5pm for about two weeks, weather and construction conditions permitting. Works will take place on three separate sections of Kin Kin Road between Sheppersons Lane, Kin Kin, and Mill Street, Pomona. Traffic controllers will be on site during

the day to assist motorists through the work area and residents accessing their driveways. Lane closures, reduced speed limits, road signage and variable message signs will be in place to advise of the changed traffic conditions and to ensure motorist and roadworker safety. “At the moment there is a lot of construction activity on Kin Kin Road with the widening project through the range and Six Mile Creek bridge works underway,” Mr Bailey said. “The various project teams are working to ensure a coordinated approach to traffic management where work areas are in close proximity. “It is vital motorists and residents observe signs and drive to the changed traffic conditions while works are taking place.”

Mr Bailey thanked motorists and the local community for their patience and cooperation during works. Current and upcoming works on Kin Kin Road include: $6 million project to widen 800m of Kin Kin Road, through the Kin Kin range, with works expected to be compete in the first half of 2023. An $18 million project to upgrade Six Mile Creek Bridge on Kin Kin Road started late October 2022. Funding has also been allocated in the 2023–24 budget to investigate two future widening and strengthening projects on Kin Kin Road from Sallwood Court to Turnbull Road, and from Williams Road to Western Branch Road.

A new era of CLO Studios By Abbey Cannan Noosa business woman Chloe Tozer has come a long way since her university days, finding time between studying to create and sell jewellery from home. At just 28 years old, she now has 25 team members contributing to her brand CLO Studios, which spans across a Noosa-based boutique, Interior Design Atelier and comprehensive e-commerce channel. “I launched CLO the year I finished university, where I studied Fine Arts majoring in jewellery and small objects,“ Chloe said. “I started a jewellery label during university and at the end of my degree, I wanted to start up a studio space and a small shop front, so that’s how CLO Studios was born in Noosa Junction.“ Chloe recounts the humble evolution of CLO, starting off by acquiring her first, albeit small, commercial space. Leased by her Dad, internally built and painted by her partner Jack, and offering a selection of interiors sourced by her mother Trudy, this original showroom is where CLO’s true essence was born. “It really evolved over time and we started expanding to offer interior design, as well as a beautiful showroom which is now the boutique. We’re sourcing products from around the world for our boutique, our projects and our online store.“ As a young business founder and creative director, Chloe’s days are flat out, keeping a close eye on all aspects of the business. “I’m so lucky to own a business in Noosa and I’m so inspired by where we live and being out in nature is important to me,“ she said. “I usually start the day with a walk or a swim down at the beach and then I like to get a headstart at work. “I come in nice and early and set up my day with my team. “My days can consist of collaborating with our design department, meeting with our marketing team, planning exciting events, product launches, campaigns, chatting with the showroom team and seeing what’s happening in there, meeting with new clients, meeting with different brand alignments. It’s a lot of fun.“ After establishing the business nearly seven years ago, CLO Studios has embarked on a rebrand to affirm their presence. “We’ve been very inspired by our immersive travels around the globe and we really wanted to reignite this creativity through our new branding,“ Chloe said. “We’ve never been so inspired or excited about what we’re creating. We’ve also launched our new website as well as expanding our inte-

CLO Studios new Interior Design Atelier space. rior design studio which is known as the Atelier. We’re also launching our first beach and pool towel this summer.“ On Friday 25 November, the team held a soft launch to celebrate the rebrand in their new Atelier space. “Friday night was amazing. It was more than I ever had dreamt of,“ Chloe said. “It just felt very beautiful to have all of our favourite people around us, from suppliers to clients, and the people who have supported our business over the seven years who have allowed us to do what we do each day. “I’m incredibly proud of our team and always refer to them as extended family. I’m very proud of the growth and where we stand today.“ After almost a decade of working on different spaces, Chloe said it was too hard to choose a favourite. “It’s like picking a favourite child,“ she laughed. “There’s been some incredible projects that we’ve been lucky enough to work on. Our interior design studio would have to be one of my favourite spaces we’ve ever created because its built up of all of our team’s personalities and experiences, and it holds some of my art collection on the walls. I love that design can influence how you feel and how you work.“ The launch of CLO’s new website, artistic direction and logo are a visual representation of their exciting future. “We’re hoping people want to come in and feel the new wave of CLO Studios and everything we have to offer. It’s just the beginning. We have a lot planned for the next 12 months and we can’t wait to meet new people and see where it takes us for the next seven years,“ Chloe said.

Mentors guide managers Armed with several academic qualifications in forestry and horticulture production and decades of experience Kaara Shaw and Gary Clarke are well qualified to deliver on their company promise of best practice land management, and last year set up a business to meet the growing demand for their services. But with little business know-how, the couple turned to Business Mentoring Noosa for some sound knowledge which is leading them on a positive future path. Their company, Forest Land Management (FLM) is headquartered in the Beenam Valley, 30 minutes west of Tewantin, and its purpose is to work with private and corporate landholders to provide forest and land management services and advice in the South East Queensland area. The services consist of hardwood plantation establishment, maintenance and harvesting of same, forest and paddock rehabilitation, including revegetation and weed management services, forest land planning, technical reporting, advice, networking and marketing. Prior to establishing their business and with a raft of studies behind them including production horticulture, agroforestry and a study of tree-based agriculture and forestry systems (University of Queensland), Forest Science (University of Melbourne) and a diploma of Forestry (Queensland Forestry Department), Gary and Kaara worked for two different not-for-profit organisations running farm forestry extension programs and developing contract servicing capacity. For more than 20 years, they delivered farm forestry services and education projects to private landholders, resulting in hundreds of hectares of prosperous native eucalypt plantations and revegetation. These plantations are now producing high-value commercial timber products. All these plantations provide landscape services

Garry and Kaara planting a koala habitat in Purga. such as habitat, soil protection and carbon sequestration. The time spent working on different properties throughout the vast Southeast Queensland rural area provided Gary and Kaara with invaluable experience growing forests across all soil types, landscapes and slopes. The couple were rewarded by making and developing connections with all the landholders, contractors, suppliers, clients, colleagues, students and researchers. Forest Land Management’s primary expertise and experience are in growing and managing native eucalypt plantations for timber and revegetation purposes. Farm forestry is the art and science of successfully growing trees on farms in a way that maximises speedy and healthy results, culminating in high survival rates. Kaara and Gary have developed unique systems designed to reduce risk and increase the success of planted forest establishment. In 2021, the couple identified a need expressed by many of their long-term customers for their expert advice and services.

Garry lift-pruning in Crows Nest. Also, demand for forestry management (FM) services was strong and growing. Fuelled by the increasing demand for durable hard wood timber, a fluid property market and a very limited number of suitable forest management services. “The market is continuously looking for advice that they can trust from providers who have long-term experience, proven best practice systems and are committed to the longterm success of their forest development,” Kaara said. “Experience, a scientific approach and longevity are keys to our success. Our rapid growth is all coming from word of mouth, our customers telling others about their successful results from working with us and using our processes and systems. “Growing a forest is a long-term investment regardless of your reasons for doing It. It is much easier for clients to commit to the investment if they trust your advice and that you will be around to support them,” Gary said. “When we started our own business, we were confident that our years of experience

working for others and the systems we had developed would work, but we had little to no business experience,” Kaara said. “A friend recommended us to contact Business Mentoring Noosa. “It turned out to be exactly what we needed. A sounding board who was not a friend or family member, who would listen to our ideas objectively. “We were assigned two highly experienced business professionals who gave us feedback and direction and helped us set current goals for our business. Our mentors guided us to think about the evolution of our business and prepared us for the hurdles we would face in the future. I highly recommend BMN to anyone that feels they need assistance in growing their business.” Forest Land Management clearly has a bright future and fits perfectly into the ethos of the Noosa Shires’s sustainability DNA.

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

The Guide CSI: VEGAS 10, Saturday, 8.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK

The crime scenes are uniformly disturbing, but one can’t help thinking: the writers on CSI must be highly entertained when they dream up their off-thewall cases. Perhaps it’s the same for real-life crims when they hatch their plans, but you can rely on CSI to feature memorable clues and details. In “Burned”, there are Big Foot-like footprints found around the house where a gory double-murder is being investigated. Wild, scary creature theories are quickly put to rest, with plastic wrap and an engagement ring offering clues. HYPOTHETICAL SBS Viceland, Monday, 9.25pm

No idea is too outlandish in this British comedy series helmed by Josh Widdicombe and James Acaster. Each week, the comperes pose implausible scenarios to a panel of comics, who improvise equally ridiculous solutions. The proceedings are constantly derailed by Acaster’s absurd asides and put back on track by Widdicombe. In this season four premiere, Richard Ayoade (pictured) and Maisie Adam prove their soccer prowess and Guz Khan shows off his talent for mimicry. STUFF THE BRITISH STOLE ABC TV, Tuesday, 8pm

THE FLATSHARE 10, Friday, 8.30pm and streaming, Paramount+

London writer Beth O’Leary’s bestselling rom-com novel gets a new life as an exciting six-part series. Starring Downton Abbey’s Jessica Brown Findlay and Anthony Welsh (both pictured) in the leads, it’s a quirky, fun and stylish look at the predicament of two London millennials in an unusual situation. Book editor Tiff and nightshift nurse Leon have never met, but they both sign up to share a single-bed flat, with each having alternate hours to use the space. What begins as a means to an end to save money blossoms into an unconventional love story punctuated by Post-it notes and a yearning to be understood.

Host Marc Fennell (pictured) looks closer to home for the final episode of this globe-trotting six-part series that unravels the mysteries behind artefacts plundered by the British Empire. In 1833, Indigenous Noongar warrior Yagan was a resistance fighter who tirelessly fought against British colonisers in Western Australia. The settlers branded him an outlaw and he was brutally killed. A key part of Yagan’s body was sent to be displayed in a Liverpool museum, only to be lost in the UK for decades. But Yagan’s determined mob never gave up in their quest to bring him back to country. Fennell says the “fight to bring him home is one of history’s wildest detective stories”.

Youngsters in Cooroy enjoy last year’s convoy.

CHRISTMAS APPEAL TO SUPPORT SIX CHARITIES Mayor Clare Stewart has called on Noosa to back local charities in their mammoth effort to support residents in need after a challenging year The Mayor’s Christmas Appeal this year supports six local charities in their efforts to make the festive season a little brighter for Noosa residents doing it tough. Mayor Clare Stewart said donations in the form of gifts, non-perishable food or supermarket and school supply shop vouchers would greatly help.

24 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 December, 2022

“Your contribution – no matter how small - will all help to ensure children receive gifts at Christmas, families have food on the able and kids have books and stationery for the new school year,” she said. Mayor Stewart kicked off the appeal with $500 worth of stationery store vouchers. “It’s been a tough year for many

with the shire in the grip of a housing crisis and the impacts of COVID-19 still being felt. “To help out wherever you can, check Council’s website for the list of charities that need support and details on how you can make your donation.” Gifts can also be dropped off at: • Tewantin-Noosa RSL Club,

Memorial Avenue, Tewantin. • Noosa Council, 9 Pelican Street, Tewantin. • Cooroy Library, 9 Maple Street, Cooroy. “Every donation helps make a difference this Christmas.” Visit Council’s website noosa.qld. gov.au for more info.

Students travel sustainably school community. Students have been given the opportunity to show how accomplished, compassionate and empowered they are by their involvement in events like Two Feet Tuesdays and Ride and Walk to School Days. “The benefits for the school community are wide-ranging, from reduced traffic congestion to social connections on a Tuesday morning.” The program has worked with the Tewantin Noosa Lions Club to get the shire’s first walking school bus up and running at Noosaville State School.

Council’s Go Noosa Schools program rolled into schools across the Shire this year to encourage students and their families to leave their cars at home and switch to sustainable transport.

achieved outstanding results this year, reducing the number of students travelling to school by car by 12%, and 36% of families had tried a new way to travel to or from school.

Students and staff at St Teresa’s Catholic College and Noosaville State School were pivotal in developing the program.

Noosaville State School Deputy Principal Alasdair Scott said, “The Go Noosa Schools program has been a highly successful collaboration for our school and

Noosaville State School has

Noosaville State School Environmental Leader Imogen H said, “I particularly like the Two Feet Tuesdays because parents can drop their kids off and we get to walk to school as a group.” The program is tailored to each school and includes activities to encourage sustainable transport use, including in-class presentations, year 4 bike skills, bike maintenance workshops and incentives to encourage participation in national active travel awareness days. Contact the team at gonoosa@noosa.qld.gov. au to get your school involved.

HEAVY RAIN BEHIND DROP IN SCORE Noosa River catchment health records slight decline in rating Significant wet weather over the past 12 months has driven a slight decline in the health of Noosa River and its catchment. “Noosa’s rating declined slightly from excellent (A-) to good condition (B), largely due to the floods transporting more than three times the amount of pollutants into the river than in the year before,” Council’s Acting Environmental Services Manager, Rebecca Britton, said. The Catchment Summaries Report released by Healthy Land and Water this week showed grades were down across the region following disaster-scale

floods earlier this year. Ms Britton said the overall health of Noosa’s waterways was still strong, despite higher loads of nitrogen and phosphorus. “On a positive note, the report card shows Noosa residents are some of the most satisfied with their local waterways in all of southeast Queensland, with a 78% rating,” she said. “In addition, 74% derived very high levels of personal benefits from our waterways compared to 57% for all of southeast Queensland. “We’ve made good headway to improve river health by establishing an integrated

water quality monitoring program and partnering with The Nature Conservancy to build 30 reef patches at four restoration sites in the estuary.”

IN BRIEF Free holiday buses Free buses are back these holidays starting 10 December until 22 January 2023. Council’s Go Noosa Holidays program is providing free travel on five existing TransLink buses that service Sunrise Beach, Sunshine Beach, Noosa Heads, Noosaville, Tewantin, Cooroy, Pomona, Cooran, Noosa Parklands, Tewantin and Noosa Civic. An additional temporary route will service Peregian Beach to Noosa Heads. Council’s Go Noosa Loop Bus connects Noosa Heads, Noosa Junction and riverside locations along Weyba Drive, will run every 15 minutes, 7am to 7pm and half hourly until 10pm. Visit Council’s website for details.

Visitors splash $1 billion Visitors to Noosa spent $1.15 billion in the region in the financial year – the highest since the outbreak of Covid-19, according to the Tourism Noosa Annual Report 2021-22. The total, which included domestic overnight and day trip visitors was a record for a year-ending June. The overnight visitor spend of $1.04 billion was the second highest on record – a 16 per cent increase on the pre-Covid figure, while visitor numbers increased only one per cent. Tourism Noosa Acting chief executive officer Susan Ewington said the organisation’s strong marketing campaigns and flexibility during lockdowns and border closures in the first half of the year saw visitors from around Queensland increase their annual spend to an all-time record $609 million. “Interstate visitation is now bouncing back with the reopening of borders and recommencement of interstate marketing activity,” she said. “And with their average spend almost onethird higher than what it was before the pandemic, it shows they’re getting out and about and exploring the region and all the great experiences on offer.” The annual report was presented to Tourism Noosa members at the company’s annual general meeting on 23 November. Celebrating its 21st anniversary this year, the not-for-profit local tourism organisation works with local businesses, Noosa Council, business and trader groups, and other regional, State and national stakeholders to promote the diversity of the Noosa region to domestic and international visitors, the tourism trade and media. The official destination marketing organisation for the Noosa Shire serviced 656 member businesses across accommodation, eat and drink, experiences and tours, retail, weddings, health and wellbeing, events and services. It provided marketing, training, visitor services, environmental programs, industry development, networking and other opportunities, as well as connection to the wider State and national tourism industries. Ms Ewington said although the Noosa region enjoyed strong visitation results during the year, ongoing challenges such as critical staff shortages and low housing affordability had presented new difficulties. “Businesses have shown incredible resourcefulness in rebuilding and attracting staff in the past year,” she said. “We supported their efforts through setting up a working group to formulate short and longer term plans to tackle the problem, with operators, Member for Noosa Sandy Bolton MP, Noosa Council’s observer to our board, Cr Amelia Lorentson, and other industry bodies. “In response to operators’ needs, we recently launched the Tourism Jobs in Noosa website page where members can list their job vacancies for free. We are promoting this page to locals to encourage them to help out, as well as reaching jobseekers further afield.” Marketing activity during the year included social media on the Visit Noosa channels which reached more than 10 million people with new videos and content, along with tar-

Members were offered free and affordable opportunities to reach national audiences. “Noosa’s villages, from the coast to the river and hinterland, starred in our Explore More: Discover Noosa’s Villages campaign which highlighted the great range of things to see and do right across the Noosa region,” Ms Ewington said. “We created 13 new village maps to encourage visitors to explore the entire region, 11 new village videos and a host of blogs, with the campaign reaching more than 1 million people on social media. “We also supported 17 events throughout the region and kept in touch with international markets to ensure Noosa was top-of-mind for the return of global travel.” The award-winning visitnoosa.com.au website increased unique users by almost 20 per cent in the year, providing visitors and locals with a wealth of local information on what to do and where to go, dine and stay in Noosa. “We also supported smaller niche segments of the tourism industry including wedding, wellness, food tourism, adventure and business events with marketing and other activity,” Ms Ewington said. “We launched our first marketing campaign in the valuable business events sector, Meet in Green Spaces, Breathe in Fresh Thinking which attracted more than 360,000 website impressions, developed new member imagery which Tourism Australia has distributed globally, and released the 2022 Business Events Planner.” Tourism Noosa’s sustainability programs which won the Mumbrella Award for Sustainable Practices aim to protect Noosa’s green attributes by helping visitors and operators reduce their environmental impact.

Projects included:

Support for environmental initiatives such as the O Fountain water station in Noosaville, Noosa Biosphere Trails, Solar for Strata and the Koala Gala with groups including Zero Emissions Noosa, Unity Water, Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation and Noosa and District Landcare. Tourism Noosa’s Visitor Information Centre in Hastings Street which earlier this month received the Silver Award for Visitor Services in the Queensland Tourism Awards, welcomed 81,000 visitors during the year. “The centre is not only a hub for visitors, but is an important showcase for member businesses, providing regular activations where businesses can display their services, along with holiday booking services and advertising opportunities for members,” Ms Ewington said. Tourism Noosa also supported the Shire’s business associations through funding and in-kind promotions, and the Noosa Travel

Insights Hub online data dashboard was expanded to give members free, direct access to visitor data and insights to help with their marketing and business planning. “We also took part in several projects to improve access for visitors with disability which will result in resources for members,” Ms Ewington said. “With Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk’s announcement earlier this month that 2023 will be the Year of Accessible Tourism in Queensland, we are excited to be able to offer more help for members and visitors. “We look forward to continuing to guide tourism as an integral part of Noosa’s economy and community, striving to make Noosa a better place for visitors and locals.” She said Tourism Noosa had been asked to play a role in Noosa Council’s Destination Management Plan process which will guide Noosa’s continued success as a destination. “We now look forward to being a part of this process, along with the local residents who will also offer their expertise, community knowledge and advice,” she said. Noosa Council’s observer to the Tourism Noosa Board, Cr Amelia Lorentson, said the $1 billion-plus tourism industry had far-reaching benefits across Noosa’s economy. “Tourism is so much more than visitors coming to enjoy a great holiday in Noosa,” Cr Lorentson said. “Apart from the economic benefits to our region, Tourism Noosa’s environmental, cultural and social activities foster positive change for our community and I look forward to seeing the industry, Council and community working together to continue providing outcomes that make Noosa the best place to live, work and visit.”

Gough poses rather awkwardly with singer Little Pattie

It’s Labor! The Age front page

Night that changed nation PHIL JARRATT recalls a night that started a new era in Australian politics, and kept him out of the army Fifty years ago today, on 2 December 1972, I spent the morning at a polling booth in the Canberra suburbs, handing out how-to-vote cards for the local Labor MP Kep Enderby, before heading off to work at the National Tally Room at Belconnen High School in one of the new housing estates that had been built to cater for the capitol’s huge public sector growth. To say that I was somewhat invested in the outcome of that day’s federal election is a gross understatement. A victory for Labor and its enigmatic leader Gough Whitlam would be my escape tunnel from the two years of military service from which I’d been granted a deferment to complete my journalism studies, and which would expire at the end of the month. If Gough didn’t make it to the Lodge, I’d be in khaki! This reality had dawned on me a few months into my year in Canberra, and I’d decided to do something about it. While faking the impartiality required of me every day as I donned my suit and went to work as a junior reporter in the political bureau of the Sydney Morning Herald, I was, in fact, a card-carrying member of the ALP who believed with all his heart in the gospel of Gough, that it would lead to the creation of a new and fairer Australia, not to mention the abolition of conscription. I’d volunteered for Enderby, a former barrister, good bloke and scratch golfer who would later become attorney general, since his first call, and although I wasn’t allowed to have an opinion in my writing for the Herald, like a lot of partisans in the press gallery, I wrote extremely pro-Labor pieces under assumed names for scurrilous left-wing rags like Nation Review and the surfing magazine Tracks. I was 21 years old, able to vote for the first time and determined that the will of the Australian people be bent in my general direction.

A joint sitting in the House of Reps, Old Parliament House, 1970s. Press gallery is above the Speaker Of course, it helped that a great many voters of all persuasions felt that after 23 years of conservative government it was indeed time for a change – “It’s time” as Gough sang merrily along with pop stars Jimmy Hannan, Col Joye, Little Pattie, Allison McCallum and many others in the first campaign theme song in Australian political history, which came blaring out at us from our little black and white TV screens. And it didn’t hurt that the incumbent Coalition Prime Minister Billy McMahon was widely seen and hilariously satirised as the worst leader in living memory – “Tiberius with a telephone” he was dubbed as only Whitlam had the intellectual capacity to do, after hearing reports of Billy’s Liberal colleagues being subjected to late night harangues. But there was far more to it than a glib slogan and some clever marketing. Regardless of the largely self-driven disasters that would befall his government over the next three years, on 2 December 1972, Gough Whitlam led the Labor Party into the election with the most expansive agenda for change in modern Australian political history. More than 200 policy promises were presented, from education to Indigenous rights, universal health care to electoral reform, equal pay, and no-fault divorce. As Professor Jenny Hocking noted many years later: “It was a platform that reflected

years of policy development and internal party struggle through the 1960s, in what was then a deeply divided Labor party. It also marked a dramatic shift from the post-war political certainties of Menzies.” And its impact is still felt today. Earlier this month, delivering the 2022 Whitlam Oration in Blacktown, the western Sydney venue for Gough’s campaign launch 50 years ago, Foreign Minister Senator Penny Wong reflected on the lessons we can learn from Whitlam and outlined her government’s plan for a future of foreign affairs informed by his legacy. In 1972 I didn’t know any of this but I was a true believer anyway as I drove my 1961 VW Beetle out to Belconnen for the count. It was just an ugly high school auditorium, but in the late afternoon as the TV channels did their tech checks, journos hovered in packs looking for a drink and the public started wandering in to check the action, the Belconnen High tally room started to hum with excitement. This was the first federal election I’d covered, so I had nothing to compare it to, and I was unaware that this was also the first time there had been an Australian Electoral Commission tally room at Belconnen or anywhere else. But the tally room would become an Australian institution, right up until the digital revolution finally killed it in 2010.

By 7pm, and an hour after the polls closed in the eastern states, the excitement was palpable. While the heavy hitters from my office moved around getting reactions from senior pollies and making fearless predictions for the television cameras, as the first numbers appeared on the manual tally board, my job was to phone around getting reaction quotes from sitting members who looked in danger. It was a nightmare, compounded by the frequent dropouts on the temporary phone lines set up for the night. It went like this: “Good evening, sir. Are you looking at the latest numbers? It looks like you might be gone.” “Too early to tell, you impertinent little bastard.” (Hangs up with force.) Within the one-eyed confines of the press gallery, we had predicted a Whitlam landslide. It wasn’t, but it was still comprehensive enough to file last copy on the teleprinter and get to the after-party while it still had legs. (It wasn’t long before I didn’t.) I remember forcing myself into a victory huddle with Mike Willesee, Mungo McCallum, Mick Young and my colleagues John Stubbs and Ian Frykberg, all dead now. It was 50 years ago, what would you expect! It was a night of nights, we were full of beer and hope, I loved my life and I wasn’t going into the army. Yay!

First minutes matter most when emergencies happen Ralph Clark never thought he’d have the skills or confidence to be able to help in the event of an emergency, until he completed the First Minutes Matter trauma training workshop. “I got so much out of it, confidence in particular, that if I do come across some kind of emergency now, I feel confident that I do have the skills that could make a difference and even save somebody’s life.“ The South Burnett retiree is one of thousands of people now armed with critical and potentially life-saving skills, shared by the medical professionals who work on board the iconic blue and yellow RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopters. First Minutes Matter trauma training is a free community safety education program offered online and in-person by LifeFlight 34 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 December, 2022

Australia’s most senior Critical Care Doctors and Flight Paramedics. After its first year of delivery and almost 30 in-person workshops hosted across Queensland, the program is being hailed a huge success. “The past 12 months have been a really great success for the program. We’ve far exceeded expectations in terms of workshops and online registrations, due to demand and the success and ease of the program,“ LifeFlight Paramedic and First Minutes Matter trainer Craig Blick said. Following the launch of the program in late 2021, thousands of every day Queenslanders are now better equipped to help during the initial, crucial minutes following a traumatic incident. Now more than 12 months on, LifeFlight

is returning to the Sunshine Coast region for another series of in-person workshops, to educate even more community members. The idea to create First Minutes Matter trauma training for the public came from LifeFlight’s aeromedical crew members who know patient outcomes are dramatically improved by actions taken in the first minutes after an incident, before emergency crews arrive. “As a paramedic, I understand the CBD and larger communities are well catered for in terms of paramedical response, but it is the direct opposite when we go to the remote communities,“ said Craig Blick. “So it’s really important for us to be heading out to these regional communities and educate them on what to do while they’re waiting for an ambulance, police, fire and

rescue or even the RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter.“ “These teachings make a huge difference. The topics that we choose to teach are aimed at those real-life threats that can happen and we can teach people the basic skills, so that we can help save lives and we know that’s happening,“ he said. During the free, in-person workshops, LifeFlight Paramedic and First Minutes Matter Trainer Craig Blick shares his invaluable knowledge for dealing with trauma incidents including seizures, choking, burns, bleeding, snake bites and cardiac events. The latest in-person First Minutes Matter workshops are being held in Noosa on 5 and 6 December. Register at – firstminutesmatter.org.au

LETTERS

Globalisation a pay factor Allan Humphries asks whether Australia’s manufacturing industry has gone overseas because of “outrageous pay and conditions” achieved by trade unions (NT 25/11). The answer is a clear no. The actual reason was the action of governments in the US, UK, Western Europe and Australia to deregulate their economies in line with the ongoing process of globalisation throughout the 1980s and beyond. This resulted in the wholesale export of investment capital and manufacturing jobs from countries which had been the manufacturing centres of the world to countries where wages and working conditions were very low, and in some cases kept low by authoritarian governments. In spite of these unpleasant facts, and in order to avoid the risk of becoming an economic backwater or a banana republic, Australian governments had little choice but to accept the reality of globalisation. Accordingly, manufacturing in Australia and similar countries has been largely replaced by service industries, where workers are employed to sell things rather than make things. This development has brought its own problems such as loss of trade skills, insecurity of employment, and constant pressure to work longer hours for less pay. It is difficult to say what would constitute outrageous pay and conditions in today’s climate of extreme economic and environmental upheaval (that is, unless you are talking about the opulent remuneration packages bestowed upon captains of industry, government ministers and senior government officials). For the ordinary wage and salary employee, however, the ever-decreasing amount that trickles down falls far short of being outrageously generous. Bill Bodkin, Sunshine Beach

Meatworks decision in the spotlight It is just on a year ago that neighbours in the vicinity of 82 Patterson Dr Tinbeerwah joined together to express their concerns about the potential granting of approval by council to establish what is essentially an abattoir in a residential neighbourhood. The arguments presented to council by way of objections were well thought through and made consistent reference to the Noosa Plan and identified where the proposed application failed to comply. However, throughout the process there was concern that not all councillors were interested in receiving the views of residents with an open mind and there was undue influence being exerted by the party representing the applicant. As a consequence, these concerns fed into the public consciousness and created the situation where residents formed the impression that the decision-making was not impartial. Under Section 12(1) of the Local Government Act “a councillor must represent current and future interests of the residents of the local government area”. In making their decisions it is therefore incumbent on councillors to make an impartial decision in the best interest of the local community and not to an individual regardless of the circumstances surrounding the application. For the immediate and surrounding residents of 82 Patterson Dr it is very difficult to see how their current and future interests are being considered. Within the local community there is anger and disappointment with a Council that dismisses the complaints and concerns from a young family, and neighbours, who are directly impacted by the meat processing business and dealing with the noise and activities at various times throughout the day and at odd hours during the night. There remains a question as to whether Council would have approved the meat processing plant had it not been in operation prior to gaining council approval. If the answer is no, then this raises serious questions about the integrity and decision making by the council which is now faced with the decision regarding the doubling of the capacity which, of course, will have an even greater impact on the local community. From a governance perspective it is of the utmost importance that Noosa Councillors conduct their business and are seen to make their decisions in an open and transparent way. This did not seem to be the case with respect to the initial approval as some council-

lors declined to meet with residents and the public meeting which was attended by many from the local community witnessed councillors voting 4:3 against the project and yet, just two days later when the decision was to be ratified, the decision was announced as 6:1 in favour. There was no transparency around this change and very disappointing that no explanation was forthcoming. With respect to the matter currently under consideration it is very difficult to justify a doubling of capacity as a small scale business and raises questions regarding whether the applicant was completely open and transparent with their intentions when the initial application was made. To conclude, under 12.1(b) and (d) of the Local Government Act, councillors have a duty and responsibility to the local community to show leadership and to be accountable and transparent. Conversely, there is no responsibility to lobbyists. Indeed the Independent Commission Against Corruption specifically states “it is in the public interest that lobbying is fair and does not undermine confidence in impartial decision making”. In the matter before council, we believe that the right decision is for councillors to respect the wishes of the majority of the local community and both refuse the current application for a doubling of capacity and that approval for a continuation of the meat processing at the current address is denied.

Mayor response to STA concern Dear Julia Craddock Thank you for your letter (NT 25/11) to the Editor and concern over short term accommodation, however there are some inaccuracies that need to be corrected. Like you, Noosa Council are also concerned about the quantity of short-term accommodation and the impacts on housing supply, housing affordability and residential amenity. Prior to this term of Council the short term accommodation sector was largely unregulated leading to the issues we are facing today. The regulation our Council has now implemented is working to correct the impacts that short term accommodation has had on our community. The Short Term Accommodation Monitoring Report which was presented to Council at our General Committee Meeting on the 14 November 2022 outlines the history and growth of short term accommodation and responses

LENSCAPE

taken since the former Noosa Plan 2006 was in place and now Noosa Plan 2020. Of particular note, a number of external factors contributed to short term accommodation becoming an acute problem in Noosa, including the emergence of online booking platforms and the recent housing crisis. Since this term of Council has been in place since March 2020, Council has responded in a number of significant ways to regulate the sector and reduce community impact: With the introduction of the new Noosa Plan 2020, Council made short term accommodation of an entire dwelling on an ongoing basis an inconsistent use in the Low Density Residential zone, reinforcing the zone’s purpose for permanent housing and protecting future housing supply in this zone; The introduction of a new local law for management the ongoing operation of lawful short term accommodation properties, requiring an application and assessment of the property’s lawfulness to operate, introducing a code of conduct for guest behaviour and requiring a local management framework and response to complaints. The introduction of a 24/7 complaints hotline for residents to identify any issues regarding impacts on their residential amenity and the ability to identify properties suspected of operating unlawfully or without a local law approval. Recently, in response to the findings in the Short Term Accommodation Monitoring report and the Housing Strategy, Council has resolved to make short term accommodation an inconsistent use in all zones (with an exception in specific centre locations) to ensure no further growth of short term accommodation in these zones and ensure any further

development is for permanent housing only. will be writing to properties in Me· Council dium and High Density residential zones, where not under onsite management, seeking their consideration for removing their properties from short term accommodation and instead placing the property within the permanent rental market. Council is limited in its powers with regard to properties that have lawful development approval or lawful existing use rights to operate short term accommodation under the provisions of the Planning Act 2016. Properties with a development approval that allows for short term accommodation can continue to operate under that approval, regardless of any changes under the planning scheme to the contrary. As most existing development in Noosa, particularly unit development, were approved prior to the former Noosa Plan 2006, well before this term of Council, these properties have lawful use rights under their development approvals to operate short term accommodation. With regard to existing use rights, where a property was operating lawfully under the requirements of the former planning scheme, and the use is continuous, they may claim existing use rights to continue operation, However, should the use of the dwelling for short-term accommodation cease and be abandoned or change in scale and intensity, then the existing use rights may also cease. I do hope that information clears up any inaccuracies which have been raised in the community, via various platforms over the past 12 months and look forward to working with you in advocating to limit the impacts of a historical gap in regulation.

Katie Rose says thank you This Christmas I am reminded of the vital role community spirit plays with its unhesitating recognition of our work. Since we opened our 24/7 hospice service four years ago, I have witnessed how powerful the attitudes and contributions of those who care can be in allowing us to do what we do. That’s why Katie Rose Cottage is more than a hospice, it is a community. It includes the people within its walls - the terminally ill and their families who come to us, our health professionals and supporting staff and volunteers. They all have a pride in making sure the work of the hospice continues and that it always stays the beautiful, welcoming home it is. Our small community exists because, thankfully, the wider community believes in our mission – to provide for Noosa and Sunshine Coast folk a financial worry-free and peaceful departure from this world. Our op shops in Tewantin, Cooroy, Noosaville and Maroochydore, our volunteer fundraising events - like the Katie Rose Gala, fashion spectaculars, the classic car show, as well as our coin donation boxes in the local baker or newsagent—are all given vital, charitable support… by you. I say vital because without it we would not be here. Nursing/care costs are about $1.38

Katie Rose Cottage committee chairman Carol Raye million a year and only approximately 21 per cent of that amount comes from state government sources.

Kathy Bruce is one Katie Rose staff member who knows how important the support from the community is.

Kathy is one of our two co-ordinators of our registered clinical nursing staff. “I have been a nurse for 10 years and I have worked in other areas of nursing but looking after the terminally ill is, to me, real nursing,” Kathy said. “We make sure our guests are comfortable and experience a high quality of care. Equally important is that their families are looked after. “Katie Rose is such an amazing organisation. “A lot of people are not aware that what we actually do is provided at no cost. People do not have to pay to be here. I feel quite proud to be a part of Katie Rose.” Like Kathy I, too, am proud of our hospice and grateful to the wider community for the support it gives. As Christmas and the New Year approaches, I know that together we can, and will, do so much more. Thank you so much for your support. On behalf of the Katie Rose family, I wish you a safe and happy festive season and 2023. Please visit our website at katierosecottage. org.au to find out how you can volunteer, obtain information on our upcoming events, or make a tax deductible donation.

Electric vehicle owners are miles ahead of the pack Electric vehicles, commonly known as EVs, are very cheap to run, and comparable in price to purchase - and cheaper to maintain and register - than an ordinary car. Myth Buster: The battery is going to die just like my mobile phone and cost me tens of thousands of dollars to replace. Unlike consumer electronics, EV battery packs are rated at greater than 1000 cycles. With a cycle equalling a full charge, it generally represents 300 or more kilometres per cycle. This means an EV battery pack is good for at least 300,000 kilometres. With the average Australian driving less than 15,000 kilometres per year, we may be worried about something that might happen in over 20 years’ time. Benefit: Buy fuel on a Tuesday, Saturday or is it a long weekend? These are challenges of the past when you own an EV and likely pay the same amount every day to charge up. Leaving home with a full tank every morning is one of the many benefits of owning an EV. Electricity is generally a stable price with the average Queenslander paying about 25 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh). Owning an EV makes budgeting for your transport costs all the simpler. Battery operated vehicles (BEVs) as opposed to hybrids, which use fuel, only require recharging using an electric plug. An EV comes with a charging lead that plugs into a standard 240-volt power point which means you can charge your car at home. A fully charged EV can travel between 200 and 650 kilometres depending on battery capacity. When charging from home you can fully charge your vehicle for less than $20 (based on 60kWh capacity at 25 cents per kWh). If you have solar power, you may be able to halve the charging cost (standard fit is five cents per kWh by 6kWh) which can result in a cost 70 per cent less than a tank of fuel. If you drive long distances there are options to speed up recharging. Purchasing a 15-amp charging cord will cost you roughly $500 and cut recharging time in half. Or, for $1000 to 36 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 December, 2022

Brand new EV ready to go. $2000, installing a home charging station will halve the charging time again. If you have three phase power, a home charging station can fully charge your EV in as little as three hours. There are over 3000 charging stations throughout Australia, some are free, and smart phone apps show their locations. Most charging stations are universal. Tesla has announced that their new super chargers will be universal in the future. It is estimated that 80 per cent of charging happens at home.

Picture: SUPPLIED On the occasion that you need to top up on the road, plan your trip to recharge at a facility where you can get some shopping done, or have a cuppa while you wait. It is as simple as parking, plugging in and logging into your app to unlock the charging station. Your EV’s battery may require replacing approximately every 15 to 20 years. Most batteries have an eight to 10-year warranty. They come in different sizes, with larger batteries giving you further range. The cost of replacement is currently be-

tween $4000 and $20,000 and is expected to significantly reduce within the next few years due to increased recycling. There are subsidised battery exchange programs, or you can replace a faulty cell to extend the battery life. End of life batteries are either repurposed as zero emission energy storage or over 90 per cent recycled to make new batteries.

The call of the Carol Cruise By Erle Levey Business and community organisations will come together again in what is becoming a very Noosa way to celebrate the festive season. With much of the region’s history and culture centred around the river, the Carol Cruise next Friday evening is creating a tradition of its own. Members of the Sunshine Coast Oriana Choir will be singing the most popular Christmas carols while cruising down the river aboard the Noosa Ferry boats. Meanwhile, singers from the Sunshine Coast Youth Choir will join party dwellers this year on land. Community members are invited to join the ferry flotilla with their private boats or sing along at one of the four riverside stops. It’s the chance to bring a picnic blanket, invite family and friends, and celebrate the festive season. Reed & Co Estate Agents founding principal Adrian Reed said his team was committed to the Noosa community and looked forward to celebrating with locals and tourists alike at their annual Carol Cruise. “The Carol Cruise is an opportunity to bring our community together in the world-class environment that we are fortunate to call home. “I cannot think of a better place to create wonderful Christmas memories with the family and friends than boating on the river, and enjoying the many parklands that Noosa has to offer. “The core of our business is about our people who are firmly embedded in the local com-

Reed & Co founding director Adrian Reed, Sunshine Coast Oriana Youth Choir’s Asher Clewett, and David Stielow of Noosa Ferry Co. 309627 munity and the relationships they foster. “The Carol Cruise is our way of giving back and connecting with our local community at what is an important time of year.’’ Oriana choir president Melissa Innes said Noosa’s Carol Cruise was a spectacular event to be part of.

“The cruise brings together local residents, businesses and not-for-profit community organisations such as Oriana to celebrate the end of another year and remember what Christmas is all about – sharing special moments with friends and family. “This year we feel very proud that Oriana’s

adult choir ensemble will be a part of the celebrations – cruising around sharing Christmas cheer from aboard the Noosa Ferry. “And to keep the festivities going longer… children from Oriana’s youth choir, the Sunshine Coast Youth Choir, are so excited to be involved again. “But this year they will be transported on land to the various river stops to continue the festive carol singing after the boat parade passes. “It will be a lot of fun. We can’t think of a better way to close out our Oriana year than singing carols with many other members of the community – and supported by local business. “We’re grateful to Reed & Co, to David Stielow of Noosa Ferries and AVPartners for their support of this event and can’t wait to sing our way along the Noosa River next Friday evening.’’ Joab Botterell of AVPartners said the company was proud to support this event every year. “Seeing the joy that the cruise brings to the families of this community makes it all worth it. “AVPartners love supporting local businesses and through our partnership with Reed & Co we are proud to be able to do this to put smiles on all of the families of Noosa.’’ This event is subject to weather conditions and all times are approximate at this stage. Stop 1 - Ravenwood Park, Noosa Pde, at 5pm. Stop 2 - Noosa Park West at 5.30pm Stop 3 - Settlers Cove Park at 6pm Stop 4 - Lions Park Noosa Heads at 6.30pm.

High school students wow community with art exhibition The importance of art and community has been highlighted at the opening of Noosa District State High Schools ALT. kNOWledge exhibition at Cooroy Butter Factory Arts Centre. The official opening event was held on Friday the 18 November with music performed by Noosa District State High School’s String band. The exhibition which runs until Sunday 4 December, displays the culmination of dozens of students’ art pieces, including realism, abstract and contemporary pieces. It provides a perfect platform for students to show weeks of hard work and their personal connections and realisations. For some students it was their first time having their art framed and displayed in a gallery. Year 8 student Sage Morris was beyond thrilled to have her work displayed. “After completing multiple artworks, it is uplifting to see them on display,” Sage said. The exhibition opening was also a chance for the local community to meet Noosa District State High Schools new head of campus Oliver Colmer.

Students and their families viewed the exhibition.

Students displayed their art at the gallery.

Mr Colmer stated how important art was for the local community and how for young people it was a fantastic vessel to express feelings. “I was impressed by the fantastic art works

Butter Factory Arts Centre for hosting and for the considerable time taken in hanging and displaying the art pieces. Moreover, I would like to acknowledge Mr Ranclaud for making this special event happen.“

Artists win cash prizes Four local artists have been recognised for their artistic excellence, winning a share of over $40,000 worth of prizes in this year’s Queensland Regional Art Awards (QRAA). The overall QRAA Art for Life Award winner was Coolum Beach artist Kellie O’Dempsey. In her acceptance speech, Kellie commented on her artistic practice, highlighting her ongoing involvement with Flying Arts and the importance of supporting regional artists. Capturing the spirit of the QRAA Kellie’s winning artwork Wish You Were Here 1, is a mixed media collage and projection reaching 120cm high and 120cm wide, which began as the artist’s reimagining of a post-pandemic life. In her artist statement, O’Dempsey describes the artwork as where the “uncanny collides with the uncertain”, where in search of progress a figure attempts to travel yet goes nowhere. Wish You Were Here 1 combines collaged paper with a video projection and uses repetition and monotonous loops to create a nonspecific location and time. Kellie’s artwork blends the physical and the psychological for a moment of hypnosis and absurdity to find balance in an uncertain world. The QRAA has been a highlight on the regional arts calendar for over 10 years, offering a significant opportunity for artists located outside of the Brisbane City Council area to reach an audience beyond their locality. The annual visual arts prize is established for artists living in regional and remote Queensland, aiming to provide both cash prizes and a platform for further professional opportunities. In 2022, the QRAA invited artists to explore the concept of Reframe. The award called for artworks that responded to our changing world, taking into consideration the widespread economic and environmental impacts on the arts sector in recent times. This year, entries to the QRAA expressed the vast creativity, skills and imagination thriving in Queensland’s regional creative communities. With a 60 per cent increase in entries from the previous year, Queensland’s regions were well represented with artworks submitted

Flying Arts Alliance hosted a gala event at Old Government House at QUT in Brisbane to announce the 2022 Queensland Regional Art Awards winners and to mark the conclusion of Flying Arts’ 50th Anniversary year. Special delegates, industry representatives and peers joined Flying Arts on the night. Flying Arts was humbled by Yuggera, Turrbal, Nunukul, Gorenpul/Cooperoo, and Yugembir man Shannon Ruska, who delivered a moving Welcome to Country. With much excitement, the prize category winners were announced with many representatives from award partners presenting the winning artist with their corresponding prize. The official proceedings for the evening concluded with a live performance from stu-

dents from the Aboriginal Centre for the Performing Arts (ACPA), a highlight of the evening.

Julie St Aubyn: Happy Places exhibition with Peter Aland in the Carriage Room.

Explorations of inner self Local artists Julie St Aubyn and Peter Aland come together to show their wonderfully colourful work during December, where each painting is a unique response to the artist’s place in this world. A lifelong observer, Julie engages play as an integral element in the making of her work. As she progresses, the strongest images remain and a theme emerges. Peter paints by responding to life’s confusions and solutions. His work for this exhibition began as aspirations during lockdowns, only to become darker during the floods. He paints aiming for a peaceful and contented inner and outer environment. Julie and Peter’s show Happy Places is in the Carriage Room at the Pomona Railway Station Gallery from 3 December to 4 January. 38 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 December, 2022

Johns tackles Open pete against world stars like Minjee Lee, Hannah Green, Laura Davies, Karrie Webb and Jennifer Kupcho “I don’t play full-time any longer but I’ve entered for the Australian Open and if everything works out I’ll be there,” she said. “My game’s in good shape, though I’ll need to work on my short game,” she said. “Those shots from 100m are so important and that’s the part of your game that needs work when you haven’t been playing much.”

By Peter Owen Tamara Johns, who has just taken up a new role in Noosa Springs’ Golf Shop, has dusted off her clubs and is competing against the world’s best in the Australian Open in Melbourne this week. Johns, a teaching pro at Twin Waters for the past few years, last played in the nation’s biggest golf tournament back in 2014. She was one of Australia’s most promising golfers then, and has earned an exemption into the Australian Open, where she will com-

She took up her new role at Noosa Springs in October. “It was time for a change and it gave me an opportunity to get back into retail, which I love,” she said. The Australian Open, contested by men and women for similar prize money, is being played at Victoria and Kingston Heath and ends on Sunday. Sunshine Coast golfers Katelyn Must, Justice Bosio, Cassie Porter and Sarah Jane Smith are also in the field.

Coolum Beach claims Ocean Thunder Coolum Beach crew won round one of elite national event Ocean Thunder over the weekend. Ocean Thunder is restricted to 24 elite open men’s crews and 20 elite women’s crews, held over four rounds in DeeWhy, Sydney, NSW. Crews travelled from all over Australia to compete in the event. Surf boat captain Jessica Arvela said, “It was a huge day on the beach, eight races is quite the effort, we usually race five or six in a day, so it was great endurance training.“ “The swell in the surf was welcome. It really allows for some interesting racing. You need a mix of power, surf skill, team work, coordination and speed. “Honestly, the win didn’t hit us at first. We didn’t row our best, our coach [David Tom-

ba] was certainly letting us know about it. “We took it one race at a time, focused on what it felt like in the boat, listened to each other and David. We knew the race wasn’t over until you’re on the beach - with the conditions, there was a lot of carnage, anything could happen. “Our focus now is national team selection and the Australian short course Saturday week in Queenscliff, NSW. “A huge thank you to our sponsors, Richardson and Wrench, Fez Constructions, Recor Consulting, Pathway Legal, Health Junkee, and Covey Associates. We wouldn’t have even been there without their support. We are grateful for their commitment and investment in the local community.“

Crew name for the event: Richardson and Wrench – Coolum, after the major sponsor. Results for round one for Coolum Beach: Race one: 1st. Race two: 2nd. Race three: 1st. Race four: 3rd. Race five: 2nd. Quarter final: 2nd. Semi-final: 1st. Final: 1st. Next Ocean Thunder dates: Saturday 10 December. Saturday 7 January. Saturday 4 February.

Success in Pan Pacs By Brian Hoepper The 2022 Pan Pacific Masters Championships are the latest international festival to emerge from the disruptions and disappointments of the past three years. The Gold Coast event attracted over 13,500 participants from across Australia and 25 other nations. Swimming – just one of the 42 Pan Pacs sports – drew 481 competitors, among them an enthusiastic team of 15 Noosa Masters. The Noosa team won 51 medals in individual and relay events. Among the individual gold were Jan Croft, Liqun Hussey, Steph Jones, Ross Kee, Jo Matthews and Bob Morse. In a dramatic finale to the swim program, the Noosa women’s relay team of Helen Malar, Jan Croft, Wendy Nothdurft and Steph Jones took gold and broke the 4X50 metres freestyle Pan Pacs record. Earlier, Steph had become the only Noosa member to break a national record – the 200 metres freestyle. Butterfly expert Jo Matthews enjoyed remarkable success, with gold and Pan Pacs records in the 200 and 400 fly and - in the 800 individual medley - gold, a Pan Pacs record and a state record that had stood for 27 years. The Pan Pacs saw veterans Jan Croft and Bob Morse return to competition following injury. Both have been top 10 medallists at World Masters championships, and they’d clearly retained their talent. Jan won gold and four silver medals, while Bob snared four golds in backstroke events ranging from 50 to 800 metres. There were silver and bronze medals aplenty among the remaining team members – Greg Bott, Julie Bott, Felicity Hawkins, Linda Hogg, Studley Martin, Jacky Shields and John Simonidis. Fittingly, the team gathered to celebrate their excellent results and display their medals at the Greek Taverna Cafe. John Simonidis – drawing on his cultural roots – explained the mysteries of the Greek menu and led some of the team in an exuberant demonstration of Zorbainspired dancing. In an interesting footnote, Studley Martin affirmed his versality by moving on from the pool events to win a bronze medal in the Pan Pacs golf tournament and another bronze in the 1km open water swim. That swim verged on the heroic. Athletes battled jellyfish stings, choppy waves and strong cross currents, causing many withdrawals. Returning to Noosa, the team announced that the usually biennial Pan Pacs would become an annual event from 2023.

Matches in the balance By Randall Woodley Last weekend saw the first round of the twoday matches for the senior men’s competition and every Tewantin-Noosa Thunder team is in with a chance to win their respective games. The second and crucial day of each match will be played next Saturday. FIRST GRADE: Saturday had the team at a hot Gympie cricket ground and after winning the toss they decided to bowl first to give themselves the best chance of pushing for an outright. The pitch was hard but offered something all day to the bowlers. Scott Aufderheide opened up with Talon Reichert with both bowling really well. They took three wickets in the first hour before Ben Laughlin came on and four more wickets fell after drinks. At one stage Gympie was 7-45 and for the second Saturday in a row it looked like Thunder would be chasing a very low total. And then, for the second week in a row the opposition fought out to post three figures and Gympie was eventually all out 108. Ben Laughlin took five wickets with absolute class, but all of the bowlers were excellent. Teenager Talon Reichert had by far his best performance in first grade taking three wickets and threatened all day. Aufderheide had the red ball on a string as usual and Ben Claypole, Joshua Christensen and Dom Taylor were solid for the small numbers of overs they bowled. The plan was to chase down Gympie’s score quickly and look to have another bowl before stumps. Things started well with Laughlin and Lewis Waugh getting the team off to 40 before Laughlin (23) went. A couple more wickets followed but Waugh and Ben Claypole put on 50 to almost pass their score. Jarred Davis came out and hit the first innings lead runs in his debut game. Waugh remained not out on 55. Thunder then declared 21 runs ahead and had 10 overs to bowl. The 10 overs went to plan with Scott Aufderheide and Ben Laughlin picking up a wicket each to set Thunder up for the outright next weekend. SECOND GRADE: The team was playing Yandina at Dale Officer Oval and after winning the toss the skipper had no hesitation in batting. Max Cooper and Leon Beatty got the team off to a good start with an opening stand of 76. Max was out first with a well complied 50 and Beatty batting with a broken thumb, managed 35. Then after losing a couple of wickets to be 4-93, two very experienced cricketers, Daniel Cooke and Jason Toohey took over in the middle. It was not exciting cricket, but they toughed it out with the Yandina spinners bowling tightly. The pair continued and put on a 53run partnership, until Cooke was out for 34 to a good catch in close. Toohey followed soon after. The bottom order had trouble against the spin and eventually the team was all out for 170. Yandina had to face five overs before close of play. Tyrone De Kauwe lit up the afternoon,

Tyrone De Kauwe taking Yandina’s first wicket just before stumps last Saturday. smashing the stumps to pick up a wicket. Yandina finished the day at 1-17. THIRD GRADE: The match was at Yandina, and they batted first and started strongly, losing just the one wicket for the first 50 runs in quick time. The Thunder bowlers stuck to the task and wickets started to come in succession bundling them out for 148. Wicket takers were Tadgh Crowley 3-26, Luke Anstey 2-19, Richard Lee 2-8 and the L triplets, Longhurst, Lane and Lyons taking one each. By stumps Thunder were 4-75. The game is evenly poised but the boys are cautiously optimistic that they can take first innings points. FIFTH GRADE: The team was facing the strong Coolum outfit at Mat Thornhill Oval and fielded first. The visitors batted all afternoon to be 8-276 at stumps. Everyone bowled and fielded well but as always the synthetic pitch and smaller ground offered up great opportunities for the Coolum batters. Best of the bowlers was Ian Brundell with 4-68 with Brian Weychardt, Rory Ramsden, Ben Blackwell and Tony Watson all with a wicket each. There is confidence

in the team that they can knock Coolum over first thing next week and chase down what is probably a par score. SIXTH GRADE: The Sixth-Grade team were given the privilege of playing their game against USC at Read Park in a day/night match last Saturday. Losing the toss, they fielded first in hot conditions. The boys started slowly and did not field well and were unable to take some of the chances offered. As the sun went down they picked up their act and soon had USC all out for 173. Graham Chaplin took five wickets for 28, with Wayne Moore and Justin Talbot snagging two each. Thunder’s batting was looking very solid until the captain, Ron Lewis injured his hamstring and had to retire hurt on 13. Young Bailey Hosier came in as night watchman with instructions to lock it up for the night. He followed this plan for about an over then started sending balls to the boundaries. At stumps, Thunder was 0-61 and ready to chase down first innings points at the resumption of play next Saturday afternoon.

JUNIOR CRICKET UNDER 11 STORM: The U11 Tewantin Storm played the Coolum Reef Sharks and having been beaten convincingly in round one by them, it was fantastic to have such a nail biter that came down to the last ball. Storm got up by two runs and it was great to see the team development in such a short time under the coaching of Adam and Dilan. Their fielding has improved immensely, and their teamwork is superb. A great game by all team members especially Hugo having taken four wickets to help the team just get there at the end and take man of the match. UNDER 15A: It was perfect morning cricket conditions at Cooroy as TNT took on top of the table Cooroy-Eumundi (CE). TNT won the toss elected to bat. After some great middle order batting by Rory Ramsden (68*) and Matt Riddle (25) the boys compiled a competitive score of 169. TNT took to the field to try and make it hard for the CE team in a tricky 15-minute period before stumps. They finished on 1-21, Farren Cooke snaring one of their openers.

Talking Sport Ron Lane

Two clubs on the march Talks with Sunshine Beach SLSC head coach Wes Berg tells us that they are very happy with the results of the season opener of the Queensland Beach Series Round 1 held at Burleigh Heads Mowbray Park. “After a few seasons of beach squad development, we were able to enter for the first time a QBS and U15 and U17 female relay team as well as a U17 male relay team. All teams performed strongly and will continue to work together during the season. Our strong off-season sprint and flags training are starting to shine with some great individual improvement.” Special mention to the U14 girls Aalia Jones and Ava Futcher, who competed up an age group, the U15s age group and held their own along side out other U15s, Skye, Mimmi, and Abby. Also, congratulations to Aalia who earned her way into a very fast beach final. After a big 2021 season, the jump up into the U17s for Xavier Dillewaard and Hamish Giles, was a tough introduction to senior competition but they continued to show good strength and form. Xavier finished second in the U17 male beach sprint, third in the U19 beach sprint and sixth in the U17 beach flags, with Hamish seventh. For Sunshine, these results are very encouraging and it will be interesting to see how they perform at the QBS 2 at Mooloolaba on 3 December. These results are somewhat different to the usual, results as over the years their major results have usually been board and swimming. We wish them well. Noosa Senior Athletics Terrific state relays results on Saturday from the senior Noosa Athletics Club. They had eight track teams and two long teams, competing against all of Queensland. Open men’s and women’s 4x100m, U18 men’s and women’s 4x100, open men’s and women’s 4x400, U18 men’s 4X400, and U18s women’s long jump and U16 men’s long jump. The Noosa club picked up four medals and a close fourth in the open men’s 4x100m. Medal winners for the women’s open 4x100m was a bronze (Samantha Johnson, Kristie Edwards, Angeline Blackburn, Megan Marrs) Open women’s 4x400m silver (Casey Payne, Angeline Blackburn, Kristie Edwards, Mailee Scott Jones), U18 womens 4x100m silver (Mailee Scott-Jones, Dianne Ladewig, Harley Davis, Jennifer Laidwig) and U18 women’s long jump bronze. This is a combined distance of three team members longest jumps (Marilee ScottJones, Dianne Laidwig, Jennifer Ladewig). Head coach Mick Hooper was more than pleased with the overall results. “These were great results from our small club

State relay U18 4x100m silver medal winners Jennifer Ladewig, Mailee Scott-Jones, Harley Davies and Dianne Ladewig. with a lot of athletes running up age groups to make a team and now our future is looking bright. Noosa’s Little Athletics will have their turn this weekend at the Queensland Little Athletics State Relay Championships in Brisbane.” With the continued big improvement of both the Sunshine Beach SLSC beach team and the Noosa Athletics Club, it would be good to see, (if things get back to normal) both competing at the Noosa Gift Track and Field Carnival next year. Several seasons ago, the Alex SLSC competed at the Noosa Gift with great success. Rowing On 17 December, boat crews from all up the coast will assemble at Tugun to contest Round 2 of the Queensland Cup and Noosa will be well represented with six crews hitting the water. With crews from U19 to Masters, Noosa crews will thus ensure that a tradition started back in 1949, is still going strong. For this carnival Noosa will launch two U19s men’s, one U19 women’s, one U23 women’s, one women’s reserve grade, plus masters. It is good to see the women’s crew, who travel down from Yeppoon to not only row for Noosa, but also do beach patrols on Noosa’s Main Beach, are once again competing. To cover all aspects of sport in lifesaving, it was good to see our little people, the Nippers aged eight to 10 years in attendance at the Saturday Nipper Carnival, hosted by our governing body the Sunshine Coast Branch, on Noosa’s Main Beach. A large number of bclubs were in attendance. As usual the Nippers contested both water and beach events. It would be interesting to check back over the years and count the number of eight to 10s age groups, that are now, not only pursuing a career in the ranks of their senior club, but also as full-time professional lifeguards. A big well done to all Nipper parents.

Noosa Probus members try their hand at croquet The weather is heating up now December is here. Morning play is still popular, with those breaks becoming a little longer and water bottles being much more in view. Attendance is still good on the Noosa courts – some mornings all courts are full of golf croquet players, some with second colour balls being called into use. At the moment, two of our five courts are being renovated, which makes it a little more difficult for play, but players have been very patient. The newly renovated courts are already looking good, tempting to get onto them. On 9 November a group of visitors from the Combined Noosa Probus Club visited the Noosa grounds for a social visit and a game of croquet. Some had been on earlier visits and all were keen to have a go. An afternoon tea was arranged and volunteers from the club took groups of four and gave them some quick instruction and led them through a short game of golf croquet. 46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 December, 2022

The visitors enjoyed their afternoon and were surprised that the game was as interesting as it was. Some expressed an interest in learning more, which will be followed up. The Noosa Croquet Club offers croquet games for visiting groups/business groups such as the above, with teaching and equipment at $15 per head with a minimum charge of $120 per group. A doubles game is for four people and a club volunteer will offer guidance with the game. The club can make odd numbers work too. Visiting groups will provide their own food/drinks. Available times - Wednesday afternoons from 1pm. Any interested groups contact the club secretary – club phone 5474 2077. Final club championships have been completed. John Dark won the Division 1 Golf championship, Ed Boyd won the Division 2 Golf title and Lorry Ryan won the Division 3 Golf title. John Olsen won the Division 2 Associa-

tion title and Rob Moncrieff ran away with the Division 1 Ricochet prize. On 24 November the club held its annual general meeting. A new president was elected in Richard Bawden, with many thanks to John Round for his two terms as previous president. Sally Stopps was re-elected for a further term as secretary and Sheridan Stopps was elected as treasurer. With membership numbers quite high, and a recent influx of enthusiastic new members, we are looking forward to a busy and productive 2023. Remember that every Sunday morning is open for come and try – 8.15am onwards at the attractive grounds in Seashell Place Noosa Waters. Come and just have a look and see what it is all about, or have a try with experienced trainers with no obligation. Flat shoes and sunscreen are required.

Ramzi at the Tokyo Olympics, 2021.

Poster for the contest that never was.

A contest that never was This is something of a big week for anniversaries. Gough Whitlam’s electoral triumph of December 1972 is covered elsewhere in these pages, but here I want to touch on a considerably less known surfing anniversary from 20 years ago. The fact that Ramzi Boukhiam looks set this weekend in Hawaii to make history as the first Moroccan surfer to make the cut for the WSL World Championship Tour reminded me that 20 years ago this week my project manager and great mate Barry McGrath and I were in Safi, Morocco, tying up the loose ends and putting the final touches on the Quiksilver Maroc Masters World Championships, the first world surfing championship event to be held in that extraordinary country, scheduled for late January. Baz and I had been in and out of Safi from our base in France for more than six months, working on the details. Because of the event’s potential to put a global focus on Morocco as a surfing destination, and to encourage the best young surfers there to strive to make the world tour, as Ramzi is about to finally do, I had been able to get the full support of the Wali (governor) of Safi and through him the sanction of the Royaume du Maroc (royal family). Safi was the kind of ragtag old fishing port where I felt right at home, but because it had a world class righthand point break just beyond its harbour and the civic fathers had tourism aspirations, they were putting huge bucks into this, reinventing a rundown clifftop hotel for our exclusive use, and replacing the winding dirt track that led to the break with an access road to the car park we would use as the contest base, known locally as the Serpent’s Head. So Baz and I were in Safi, which by now seemed like a home away from home to us, but winter was kicking in and I was ready to sign off until mid-January, when we’d be back to prep for the Masters, and head home to Noosa for a family Christmas. The renos on our clifftop hotel hadn’t quite been finished but at least we had CNN, so I was well aware that the drums were beating in Washington with George Bush’s war on terror threatening to explode into an invasion of Iraq, which is a long way from Maroc, but apparently not far enough for some Americans. I’d had a couple of competitor cancellations from California, but nothing like the Quiksilver Pro France the year before, which we had to cancel in the wake of 9/11. So I wasn’t expecting the phone call I received as Baz and I paced out the site for a concrete slab for our judging and communications base with a contractor one unseason-

Ramzi in the slot. ably warm December morning at the Serpent’s Head. The PA of my boss, Bernard Mariette, the president of Quiksilver Europe, told me to get to an airport immediately and fly back to France to take a conference call that evening with the board of Quiksilver, Inc in California. Couldn’t I take it here, I asked? No, too risky. I had no idea what that meant. Back in our apartment in Guethary I chucked back a couple of glasses of wine to settle my nerves while I waited for the call to come through close to midnight. When it did, Bob McKnight, the company’s global chief executive officer, spoke first and

Picture: WSL he didn’t hold back. “We’ve decided that we’re not going to conduct a Quiksilver event in a Muslim country at this time.” When I started to protest, Charlie Exon, the company counsel, cut in: “Phil, I think you’d better shut up and listen.” They all weighed in and emotions were running high. Realising that I was just giving them a reason to fire me on the spot, I bit my lip and listened to the tirade. Then I hung up and opened another bottle of wine. Two days later, on a bitterly cold Paris morning, Bernard Mariette and I visited the Moroccan ambassador to France to apologise, through him, to the Wali of Safi, the Royaume

and the King himself for Quiksilver’s last-minute withdrawal from the deal. Like so many of the Moroccans I’d met, the ambassador was polite and gracious, but I still walked out of there feeling like crap. I wondered how polite and gracious the people of Safi would be when the news filtered down. It’s only a surf comp, I told myself. We made it home for Christmas in Noosa and a couple of days after New Year I was flying to Hawaii. Having cut the heart out of Maroc, the Yanks had cut a deal and moved the event onto home soil, if you could call The Rock that. We had less than two weeks to create the Makaha Masters.

RIVERFRONT HAS HIGH APPEAL PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY THE Noosa River is in the spotlight again this week, with another stunning waterfront property on the North Shore hitting the market. The near-new home on 1209sq m with pontoon at 63 Noosa River Drive, goes to auction Thursday, December 8, at 10am with Trevor Mangels and David Conolly of Century 21 Noosa. The four-bedroom, two-bathroom home provides great views and sunsets to die for, while being only a short boat ride across the water Noosaville, Tewantin and Noosa Heads. “It’s the best of both worlds, this location,” Tim Althaus says of his riverfront home. “On one hand you can be at a fancy Italian restaurant at the marina in 10 minutes and on the other you can find stretches of beach to go for a run without seeing a single soul.

A top-floor, two-bedroom, one-bathroom riverfront apartment 53/6 Quamby Pl, Noosa Heads, has sold prior to auction scheduled at 12pm on Saturday, December 3. 306874 “Running through the wetlands is like having your own private beach. “We travel by water,” Mr Althaus said. “Having deep waterfront access and a pontoon means you can literally avoid traffic and parking and worrying about a car. “If we go out to dinner, if we go out to grab a coffee, if we go to Main Beach, we go by boat.” Trevor Mangels said the North Shore was highly sought-after and this property was no exception. “Meticulously designed and impeccably presented, this gorgeous home would make the perfect holiday hideaway or permanent residence just a short ferry ride or boat trip from everything this renowned region has to offer.’’ There is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, living and family room complete with soaring pitched ceilings, timber floors and split system air-conditioning. Over-sized windows and banks of sliding glass doors frame the captivating Noosa River views. Outside, step down the expansive deck steps to the backyard and onto your private jetty.

The kitchen features premium appliances, statement pendant lighting, sweeping countertops and a large walk-in pantry. A separate sitting room is also on this level, alongside two bedrooms including a main suite with a bay window, airconditioning, dual built-in robes and ensuite access to a two-way bathroom. Two more large bedrooms and a second two-way bathroom are housed on the upper level plus there’s a generous second family room that could work as a rumpus or teenager’s retreat. TWO RECORDS IN ONE WEEK Both properties have a close connection to the water yet that was where similarities ended … until auction day. Stealing the auction limelight last weekend was the Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Eric Seetoo’s listing of 21 Dolphin Cres, Noosaville. It was touted on a recent cover of Noosa Today Property as “whatever floats your boat is here” and lots more, according to the myriad quality inquiries and inspections prior to the auction.

A four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car riverfront house with jetty on 1209sq m at 63 Noosa River Dve, Noosa North Shore, is set for auction at 10am on Thursday, December 8. 309800 widthways, on a tranquil deep and wide blue reach of Hideaway Island with not a house in sight, pays homage to the location and environment. Keen to make it their home were three registered bidders. After opening at $7m, bids rose rapidly until it was sold under the hammer to Queensland buyers for $12m, a new record for Noosaville. The result surpassed all sale prices of other waterfront homes, even on two and three blocks of land. Earlier in the week, the second suburb with a new property record was Sunrise Beach. An epic absolute beachfront 716sq m site, the eighth and last available in the exclusive, highly-prized Noosa’s Beaches estate, is poised perfectly mere footsteps to white sand. Listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Cameron Urquhart and principal Tom Offermann, 7 Beaches Noosa, at 56 David Low Way, Sunrise Beach, was sold immediately after last week’s auction for a sum well in excess of the $10m to a longterm client of the agency. With two record sales in one week, arguably that is a record in itself.

A four-bedroom, two-bathroom, four-car house with pool on 1501sq m at 3 Noosa Banks Dve, Tewantin, goes to auction Saturday, December 17, at 11am. 309800 REASON TO CELEBRATE It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas and Luke Chen of Tom Offermann Real Estate has played Santa, delivering a riverfront apartment in Noosa Harbour to buyers prior to auction. The two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment 53/6 Quamby Pl was due to go to auction this Saturday at 12pm. However, Luke sold it last Thursday evening as two buyers couldn’t wait for auction day - they both wanted it. The Melbourne and Sydney interests were allowed to put their best proposals forward, with the successful client having a holiday home for themselves as well as listing in the holiday rental pool of the popular resort. The resort is in such a great position with the northerly aspect across the river. This was a top-floor apartment which highlighted the views even further - along the park-fringed Noosaville foreshore, the waterways around Noosa Heads, out to the Coloured Sands and the sunsets over Mount Cooroy. “As soon as you walk in you are really connected to the water,’’ Luke said. “I didn’t have to speak. People would just walk out to the deck and place their hands on the rails. “They loved it right away.’’ DOUBLE CHANCE Chrissie Baker at Laguna Real Estate has two Tewantin properties set for auction in December - both in the Noosa Banks

A four-bedroom, two-bathroom, four-car house with pool on 1501sq m at 3 Noosa Banks Dve, Tewantin, goes to auction Saturday, December 17, at 11am. “It’s a fastidiously maintained home,’’ Chrissie said, “with a very proud home owner. “The attention to detail is second-tonone. It is all high quality, beautifully tiled and with two living areas. “There is a double driveway and a 12m by 5m shed that can accommodate a boat of campervan, while having a room at the back could be a home office. “It has a secret garden near the pool for moments of quiet reflection, lots of citrus trees and tropical gardens ... its just a joy.’’ In a family-friendly enclave, the house features king-sized bedrooms, plantation shutters and ceiling fans. A large alfresco entertaining area comes with weather-sensitive Vergola shelter, and a 6.6kW solar system with 26 panels. Justin Voss is the auctioneer for this and the property at 13 Dirum Ct that Chrissie is taking to the market at 12pm on the same day with colleague Chris Forde.. The four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house is on 1522sq m and has recently been upgraded and renovated inside, as well as providing room to expand living areas such as pool or shed. There has been a good response to

a four-bedroom, two-bathroom Tewantin house that goes to auction Saturday, December 3, at 1pm. Nathan Howie at Noosa Estate Agents said there was plenty of interest in 19 Flame Tree Dve - virtually all local. “Among them are people who have moved here in the past couple of years and are now looking to get into the market,’’ Nathan said. “It’s a good place - tastefully done - and a great location.’’ The newly-renovated family home is in a quiet and well-cared-for pocket of Old Tewantin. It has nailed the Australian take on Hamptons coastal style. From the street, soft greys and whites play off the leafy greens of the garden and surrounds, creating a lush tropical feel. With high fences and gates, and a double lock-up garage, the home feels private and safe while remaining inviting and comforting. Inside, there are warm timbers and natural fibres. The open kitchen is flanked by two flexible living areas with sliding doors to outdoor entertaining on both sides of the property. A servery window above the kitchen sink epitomises the seamless flow from indoors to out. There are three bedrooms plus a fourth bedroom or study, with the main bathroom and ensuite finished to perfection.

The fresh grey and white palette are complemented by stunning feature tiles in on-trend blush and sage.

ON THE COVER

SUN-SOAKED RESIDENCE RADIATES WHEN it comes to all things bright and summery, a sun-soaked residence on Noosa Sound has it in spades. Admire poincianas in the cul-de-sac, giant staghorns dressing the pathway, then step inside where it’s all about colourful eclectic personalities and great spaces, which connect almost in a transparent fashion to the long terrace, pool, lawn, and gardens, fringed by fragrant orange jessamine. All this and so much more, a mere 8-minute walk to Noosa Main Beach. The effortless floor plan flows throughout from the large lounge area fanning out into open-plan living, with its floor-to-ceiling picture window looking out to the garden on the west side. Multiple dining and entertaining options indoors and out on the north-east side, offering a sense of privacy and sanctuary from the outside world, include undercover with automatic striped awnings on the terrace, which overall stretches to a width of fourteen metres. Naturally the free-form pool is the centre of attention. The hub is a galley-style kitchen with granite-topped benches including island/ breakfast bar, premium appliances, and 2-pac cabinetry complemented by a brightwhite subway-tiled splashback. In the east wing, also with access to the pool terrace is a king-size bedroom, mirrored built-ins, and white and grey-tiled ensuite with double vanity unit. In addition, there are two bedrooms with built-ins, a family-size bathroom, separate toilet, and a laundry with access to an outdoor drying deck. Designed with the busy family life in mind, the versatility of shared and retreat spaces continues upstairs. The over-

generous master bedroom has built-in robes, ensuite with a monochromatic aesthetic and an oval tub overlooking the rear garden and pool terrace. Adjoining is perhaps a parent’s sitting room, a nursery or bedroom. “Investing or residing in this Noosa Sound playground has immense cachet,” comments Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Peter Te Whata. “It is the domain of many and on the wish-list of many more, and will no doubt attract a lot of interest from buyers wanting to capitalise on the address. You just cannot ignore the dream location so close to everything Noosa Heads, especially for those who love a leisurely walk to Hastings Street, Noosa Main Beach and Noosa National Park, where swimming and surfing are year-round.” Facts & Features: Short term holiday let approval Land Area: 718m House Area: 276m2 Pool: 7.5m x 2.6m About: 2-level; terrace 14m on NE side with auto awnings; slate, timber-hued, carpeted floors; BBQ; solar; aircon/fans Kitchen: red granite bench tops/island (3m x 1m) breakfast bar; Electrolux oven & convection/micro; Westinghouse dishwasher; Omega cooktop; white subway tiled splash-back Inventory: fully set-up for holiday market - negotiable Location: 3-mins walk to Quamby Place restaurants; 8-mins walk to Hastings Street/Noosa Main Beach a little further to the world-famous Noosa National Park & World Class Surfing Reserve ●
