Saddling up for a big crowd

Glenn Scott is keeping his eye out for rainclouds....

He reckons they’re the only thing that could possibly dampen the crowd size expected on TAB Werribee Cup Sunday, such is the anticipation and enthusiasm around this year’s community- friendly event.

As Werribee Racing Club’s general manager, Glenn said the renewed and heightened interest has been mainly due to a change the club requested from Racing Victoria around the date of the Cup. “It wouldn’t surprise us to see more than 5000 people trackside this year,” he said. “The response has been just terrific. We are buoyed by the crowd that attended our first meeting of the season last Tuesday [November 24] and we believe racegoers are keen to get back to Werribee after downtime of almost seven months. This break was brought about by the precise track preparation for the all the international horses, here in quarantine for the big spring races, that require the track to be spot-on.

“But the key reason we anticipate a big crowd at the Cup is changing the day to a Sunday, combining the TAB Werribee Cup with our Christmas Race Day event.

“It means locals and visitors from far and wide won’t have to take a day off work to attend. It also means it’s a day geared around whole families, with kids’ activities alongside all the attractions for their parents, young people and other racegoers.”

which is a significant purse and reward, said Glenn.

“It’s a fitting one because it [the Cup] will really be the main racing event on that weekend, from a prize money point of view including metropolitan racing.

We’re putting on a significant event.”

Organised sporting activities, jumping castle, mini golf, face-painting, food and the arrival of Santa (although not on a horse – Glenn scotched that rumour) are calculated to keep the kids entertained.

That’s when they’re not getting caught up in the live music and the thunder of hooves and all the colour of the track. And of course there will fashions on the field to add the real glamour to the day.

A mini marquee for 10 friends at $30 apiece is a brilliant way to ‘do the races’, and bookings are still open but they’re being snaffled up quickly. There’ll also be corporate marquees for the bigger groups but a simple picnic rug on the lawn, bubbly and beers in hand, is also a good way to go.

As they say in the classics, get your backside trackside. It will be a great day – even if rainclouds appear.

Horses in the historic TAB Werribee Cup are racing for $120,000 in prize money, plus a $1200 trophy,

Champion hoof prints on the track “After enjoying a lovely run just off the pace, the mare was switched off the heels of the leading bunch and sprinted up to her rivals before drawing clear late to down Aquiver by three quarters of a length…..”

The mare referred to is none other than Makybe Diva who took out the Werribee Cup in 2002 before making history by winning three consecutive Melbourne Cups.

Carrying 51kg with jockey Luke Currie on board, Makybe Diva had the racing world’s eyes upon her, having won five out of her past six starts, but it was the crowd at the Werribee Cup who got to actually witness what this grand dame of the track was capable of.

The day’s spectators didn’t know then how high the David Hall-trained mare’s star would rise. But in the years since, many a local lays claim to being right there, pleased to have a link with the magic of Makybe Diva.

People around Werribee Racing Club say this year’s field is a strong one and will no doubt deliver on excitement. Mighty divas don’t come along every day but maybe, just maybe, there’s another track champ who will be thundering down the straight this year – and you wouldn’t want to miss that.

Makybe Diva won the 2002 Werribee Cup

Park here at your peril

By Adem Saban The number of parking fines issued across Wyndham has skyrocketed over the past quarter … and business owners and residents are not happy.

A council report reveals 4237 infringement notices were issued from July to September this year, with motorists forking out a total of $445,982.

The total from this three-month period is almost half the number of infringements issued for the entire 2014-15 period, when council handed out 11,561 fines.

The report identifies Werribee CBD as a parking fine hotspot, with 1203 fines issued in

this area alone. Wyndham has three dedicated parking officers, with two focusing on strip shopping centres and carparks, and the third responsible for complaints made by residents.

Council’s chief executive Kelly Grigsby said fine numbers fluctuate throughout the year, and other factors, such as holidays or more visitors coming into the area, could explain the higher results.

She said infringements were down on the previous quarter, when 1596 fines were issued in the CBD. “Drivers are expected to know the road rules and observe parking restrictions,” she said.

“Residents are strongly encouraged to look at parking signs and note the restrictions.”

BUY DIRECT FROM MANUFACTURER

But Watton Street retailers expressed frustration with parking in Werribee CBD, claiming it is driving away business.

Frances Leone, owner of Francine Shoe Boutique, described the parking situation as “disgusting”.

“There are just not enough carparks in the area,” she said. “The situation is getting quite bad. It’s stopping people from coming in.”

Il Piccolo Caffe owner Trish Schweizer echoed her sentiment. “They need to increase the time limit on car parks,” she said. “People are always getting fined, so why would they come down Watton Street?”

Werribee South resident Marco Mason is also angry.

“Parking at the plaza is free – they need to invest in parking in central Werribee.”

The report also identifies the area around the hospital precinct and Hoppers Lane as hotspots, with 423 fines issued there over the past three months. It found road works in the area do not affect the availability of parking.

In the Leakes Road area near Laverton Markets, fine numbers dropped from the usual monthly average of 130 to only 49 in the September quarter.

Council’s parking strategy, which is expected to look at the possibility of a multi-storey car park in Werribee’s CBD, was due in July, but was delayed. Council did not respond to queries about when the strategy will be delivered.

Councillors ‘out of control’: MP

By Adem Saban A Liberal MP has called on the Local Government Minister to investigate bullying allegations among Wyndham councillors, claiming many are “out of control”.

Speaking in parliament last week, Western Metropolitan MP Bernie Finn asked the minister to appoint someone to “inquire into the good governance level” and have, as a possibility, the prospect of appointing commissioners, “if they do not come up to scratch”.

“We have had numerous instances of councillors bullying other councillors behind closed doors,” Mr Finn said. “Councillors [are] threatening other councillors behind closed doors.”

Acknowledging the work of administrators with Brimbank council, Mr Finn suggested it was time for administrators to do the same at Wyndham.

“Wyndham is one of the fastest growing municipalities in Australia. It needs a good council; it deserves a good council,” he said.

Star Weekly has been told of at least one

official complaint lodged by a councillor, who claims to be fed up with the bullying culture around the council table.

Wyndham council’s chief executive Kelly Grigsby said she had no concerns regarding the governance of council, but confirmed the organisation was investigating “matters relating to behaviour that is not in keeping with the standards outlined in the councillor code of conduct”.

“Given that the matters are unresolved, it would be inappropriate to comment on specific details,” she said.

She said the council took its obligation to provide a healthy workplace and to protect councillors from bullying and harassment very seriously.

A spokesperson for Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins indicated Wyndham would not go into administration any time soon.

“Mr Finn’s allegations need to be referred to the appropriate investigative body,” the spokesperson said.

“The minister will then consider any recommendations from those investigations.”

Councillors expenses on record

Little River CFA captain Terry Hedt. (Mark Smith)

Preparation key for fire season: CFA The captain of Little River CFA has warned residents to be prepared for the upcoming fire season.

The call came as CFA members responded to a grass fire in Little River last Wednesday afternoon and another in Mount Cottrell on Thursday.

Terry Hedt said six tankers responded to the fire at Little River, which had been started by a campfire that was not properly extinguished.

The Mount Cottrell fire is believed to have started when a mulch pile combusted in the

heat. Both fires were extinguished by the CFA crews.

Mr Hedt said there is a range of measures residents need to take in the lead-up to summer.

“People need to keep the length of their grass down, and get rid of any flammable timber and wood that is stacked around houses,” he said.

“We’ve got no hope of saving houses if you’ve got that sort of stuff lying around.”

It is important for owners of rural and semi-rural properties to keep their homes accessible, he said, to ensure trucks can get onto

and around properties in the event of a fire.

“Keep an eye on weather reports and fire apps to ensure you are prepared for possible fires,” Mr Hedt said. “Preparation is the key.”

“If a fire starts, you’ve got to get out and get out quick. Grass fires are different to bush fires.

They travel a lot quicker. In these grassland situations, fires can travel at around 12 to 15 kilometres an hour, especially on a windy day.

“It is important to have a fire plan in place.”

Ratepayers have been slugged with a bill of more than $30,000 as Wyndham councillors claim costs of attending conferences, professional development sessions and travel.

A register of councillor expenses for the six months from May to October reveals former mayor Peter Maynard was the biggest spender.

Cr Maynard clocked up $6440 in costs, which included $136.36 for a breakfast with Werribee MP Tim Pallas.

They also included $154.55 to attend a local debutante ball, and $180.27 to attend the Western Chances Good Business Forum.

Next on the list was Cr Glenn Goodfellow, claiming $4038. A place at the National Local Roads and Transport Congress cost $809.09 (Cr Goodfellow is the transport portfolio holder) and $450 to attend the Bike Futures conference.

Cr Gautam Gupta claimed $3566, with his most expensive item being $904 for the International Cities, Town Centres and Communities Conference.

He also claimed $210 to travel to the conference in Wollongong.

Cr Bob Fairclough raked up a bill of $2936, including $481.82 to attend the Mercy Health Ball in July.

Current mayor Adele Hegedich’s bill totalled $2592, Cr Peter Gibbons $2067, Cr Heather Marcus $2342, and Cr Intaj Khan $2106.

Cr John Gibbons claimed $1695 in expenses, and Cr Marie Brittan claimed $1893. Cr Michele Wharrie’s bill was $760.

Ratepayer wants to see ‘giant tv’ switched on A Wyndham resident is calling on the council to “stop wasting ratepayers’ money” and switch on the giant television screen at the front of the Encore Events Centre.

David Robinson is keen to see the screen – which measures seven metres by four metres and is valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars – put to use and has spent recent months trying to get answers from the council.

A Star Weekly report last month revealed the screen, which was installed as part of the $54.4 million redevelopment of Wyndham’s leisure and events centre, had never been used and had

not even been turned on since the revamped centre opened in June.

Councillor Intaj Khan said the screen could have cost the council up to $1.1 million.

But Wyndham council chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the screen, its installation and programming costs added up to $200,000.

Mr Robinson said he was told by a council employee the screen would not be turned on until June next year.

“Once I started to dig a little bit deeper, I found out that it was going to cost another $120,000 to activate it,” he said. “They’ve got

‘‘

’’

no-one to operate it – it’s just sitting there doing nothing.

“It’s a real mix-up . . . with the amount of ratepayer money spent on it, it should be working.”

Ms Grigsby said the current permit allowed the screen to be used as a static display to

Pay bid nothing personal Personal trainers who use council-owned parks and reserves may soon need a permit to take their classes in public places.

A new Wyndham council policy proposes that commercial fitness providers be required to have a permit for their activities, to hold valid public liability insurance, and to pre-book council reserves.

The proposal seeks to slug personal trainers an annual fee of $120 for sessions with one to eight participants, while those seeking to train nine to 20 participants each session will face a fee of $240 annually.

Werribee-based personal trainer Sean Robins said he was unsure whether a permit was necessary.

“If you’re doing well as a personal trainer, it obviously isn’t too big a deal,” he said. “But when you add that fee to your insurance, plus registration and ongoing professional development – you begin to wonder if it’s worth it at all.”

Mr Robins said training in a gym was too expensive, and the introduction of permits for public spaces could limit options for trainers.

“I like to take my clients outdoors on nice days to enjoy the sunshine.”

In a discussion at last week’s ordinary council meeting, councillors were divided over the new policy. Cr John Gibbons didn’t agree with it and called it an example of ‘a nanny state’.

Cr Intaj Khan said the introduction of permits would lead to privatisation of parks, and he’d prefer to see them used by the public.

Cr Heather Marcus echoed this sentiment, saying council had enough policies, and she would love to see parks in full use.

Cr Peter Maynard labelled the policy ‘reasonable’, while Cr Marie Brittan said it was important to make sure personal trainers were operating in a safe manner.

The policy is open for public feedback until January 19 at wyndham.vic.gov.au.

Wyndham’s State Emergency Service (SES) was called out to 20 properties when wild winds whipped the state last week.

SES crews attended about 750 call-outs across Victoria last Wednesday as wind gusts of between 80 and 110km/h were recorded in many parts of the state.

Most of the calls were for fallen trees and minor building damage.

Victoria SES spokeswoman Sally Lowenstein said the Wyndham unit was called out to 20 jobs on Wednesday night, including eight in Tarneit and five in Werribee.

The rest were in Truganina, Wyndham Vale, Point Cook and Mount Cottrell.

Ms Lowenstein said the bulk of call-outs related to damaged or fallen trees and tiles blown off roofs.

“A trampoline in Tarneit went on a bit of a wander, and in Werribee, the roof of a shed blew off and onto a neighbour’s car,” she said.

The damage comes almost two months after a mini-tornado tore through a Werribee street, causing damage to six Mary Avenue properties.

In that instance, strong winds downed power lines and trees and tore roofs off properties.

Wyndham SES unit commander Laurie Russell called on residents to secure any outdoor furniture and other items, particularly trampolines, ahead of storm and wild weather forecasts.

“If approved, this will allow the screen to be used once the trees have been planted.

“The estimated cost is $20,000 for the supply and planting of large trees, which will be planted in early 2016.”

Kevin Hillier issues a challenge to our under-fire mayor

T

he new mayor hasn’t been in the big chair very long but she has already made a few statements that have people talking. Her comments on current and past councillors’ age and relevance were seen by some to be disrespectful. I was critical of the ‘I’ rather than the ‘we’ approach, while letters to the editor in this paper described her as an MIA councillor and called on her to step down. I’m going the opposite way; I want her to step up.

In a press release last week announcing the launch of a new website knowyourcouncil.vic. gov.au, the mayor, Cr Adele Hegedich, made this statement: “Wyndham City has been on a concerted campaign to improve transparency and community engagement.�

You could have fooled me. What about the way the announcement on the naming of Eagle Stadium was handled and the refusal to open up documents explaining the process? A Freedom of Information request was denied because, according to council FoI officer Joy Painter: “It was contrary to the public interest and would be likely to reduce open and robust

deliberation in council’s decision-making process.�

This paper requested details of the Wyndham Leisure Services business plan to run the city’s three major public facilities.

That was also refused. And what about the non-disclosure of the cost of the land bought for a carpark in Cherry Street? When I wrote that I believed it would be parking for council and not the general public, a council officer contacted me wanting to know the source of my information. Does that sound like the workings of a council on a concerted campaign to improve transparency?

C

r Hegedich, here’s my challenge to you – don’t just pay lip service to being transparent, actually do it. This is your chance to act and then, perhaps, that legacy you spoke of in your mayoral acceptance speech will be that you made this council both transparent and accountable. Step up and back your own words or do everyone a favour and step down. â–

Home break-ins highest in state

By Adem Saban Homes in Williams Landing are more likely to be burgled than any other suburb in Victoria, an RACV analysis of crime statistics reveals.

One in every 19 households was burgled during 2014-15, three times the state average of one in 67 homes.

Next worst on the list were Broadmeadows and Dallas, with one in 24 homes burgled, and third place went to Greenvale, with one in every 25 properties burgled.

Werribee Crime Investigation Unit’s detective sergeant Mark Sagona said burglaries are, in fact, trending down slowly but steadily.

“We have a massive population, with new houses being built daily, and this needs to be taken into account.”

He said jewellery, home appliances, entertainment equipment and cars were often the targets of burglars.

Detective sergeant Sagona suggested alarms and CCTV cameras could help prevent burglaries.

“This also helps with our investigations after a burglary,” he said.

RACV’s home services general manager, Aaron Flavell, said the high rates of construction at Williams Landing could be a reason for the high rate of burglaries.

“There is a lot of space between homes and not as many people in the streets,” he said.

“Many new homes don’t have curtains or blinds up just yet, so burglars can see inside to know if anybody is home.

“New homes being built means there will be newly bought items … which are definitely appealing to burglars,” he said.

Mr Flavell said 60 per cent of burglars will move onto the next home if an alarm system is visible, or if there is a dog,

A series of plays performed across the western suburbs has highlighted family violence.

A WEstjustice (formerly known as the Western Community Legal Centre) initiative, five different plays were performed at 20 different locations as part of its November No Violence campaign.

Alice McBurney, a lawyer with WEstjustice’s refugee legal services, said the plays were performed to help members of different community groups to understand different kinds of family violence.

“They covered physical abuse, threatening, controlling behaviour and psychological abuse,” she said.

A play was performed on Friday to an audience of newly arrived people from refugee backgrounds, including Kareni, Egyptian, Ethiopian and Sudanese, at The New Hope Foundation – an organisation that provides settlement, welfare, advocacy and support for migrants and refugees.

It was the story of a woman whose husband demonstrated controlling behaviour. If she left the home or did anything he disagreed with, he threatened cancellation of her visa.

Each of the plays was performed by an actor and a representative from WEstjustice.

An adventure to remember A Wyndham Vale woman is embarking on the trip of a lifetime this week, with help from a local charity.

Angela Manzella, who is battling terminal lung cancer, is taking a week-long trip around Tasmania with her daughter, Nadine, and grandson Joseph.

The 65-year-old left on the Spirit of Tasmania earlier this week and will spend the next seven days exploring the island state, with a little help from The Orange Pigeon charity.

The Orange Pigeon is the brainchild of Melton resident Jenny Howell-Clark, who launched the charity in January 2012 as a fund to grant wishes to dying adults.

Ms Manzella was first diagnosed with lung cancer in 2008, and had received the all-clear after undergoing radiation and six courses of chemotherapy.

But last November, a more aggressive form of lung cancer was discovered during a routine CT scan.

Ms Manzella, who also has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and is permanently hooked up to an oxygen tank, was given lesser doses of chemotherapy and radiation, and the treatment at first held the cancer at bay.

Then, last month, she felt a lump under her arm and discovered the cancer has spread to her lymph nodes.

The diagnosis means that there is no longer anything doctors can do.

Ms Manzella spent 10 days in palliative care at Werribee Mercy Hospital, but said her upcoming trip to Tasmania has kept her going.

“When we found out that the cancer had

spread to her lymph nodes, they asked us if we could move the trip forward a week,” Nadine said.

“To hear that she might not make it to her holiday … but then, you look at her and she doesn’t seem like she’s going to die.

“It’s a very weird thing to be a part of.”

Ms Manzella added: “Even though you know [you don’t have long], when they tell you you’ve got three weeks, it’s a shock.”

Ms Manzella, a self-confessed foodie, said she was keen to try out the fresh produce,

particularly the seafood, that Tasmania has to offer.

“When I found out [about The Orange Pigeon wish], I was bawling, I was so overwhelmed,” Ms Manzella said. “I feel like there’s other people that need it more than me.”

YOUR SAY Lights up, pedestrian danger

A pedestrian crossing has been made on Cottrell Street at the Coop Street junction.

It has no working flashing lights – the fittings were put up months ago, but have not been connected. Motorists are just ignoring pedestrians on this crossing and make no attempt to give way. If challenged, they point to the light fittings. Apparently it is OK to kill pedestrians if there are no flashing lights.

Go and look – better, try to cross – and see how many motorists speed up and aim at you.

This delay in connecting the lights will inevitably result in someone’s death. Why is the council taking so long? Why doesn’t it take measures to protect people on the crossing (such as a permanent police presence, cones, etc)? I’ve had two near misses on this crossing. The situation is scandalous. Fix it now!

High fives for job well done Five cents doesn’t go far, but children at Williamstown North Primary School have used their common cents to raise nearly $500 for the Eastern Barred Bandicoot.

Year 4 pupils Lorenzo Maurici, Angus Sciberras and Ryan Dimovski initiated the fundraising, which involved all pupils.

Teacher Dianna Lane said the project was part of the children’s research into endangered species and working out ways to help preserve species. “After visiting the Werribee Open Range Zoo and seeing the Eastern Barred Bandicoot, which the boys thought was very cute and special because it only lives in Victoria, they decided to raise awareness and fight extinction

Ms Lane said. “The boys worked together to raise funds and participate in the Common Cents Challenge.

They spoke at the school assembly, inviting all grades to collect five-cent pieces for three weeks.�

Together, students raised $491.25 – 9825 five-cent pieces – and presented their total to a zoo representative last week.

Cuts hurt Youth Futures

Mayoral Column

A youth counselling service in Wyndham will shut down unless it can find a new financial backer before the end of the year.

Anglicare’s Youth Futures counselling service could end after 15 years when Wyndham council funding ceases at the end of this month.

The service provided individual counselling for 98 young people battling mental health disorders in the 2014-15 financial year.

The counselling coverage included suicide prevention and depression.

It provided group counselling for a further 54 people.

Anglicare Victoria chief executive Paul McDonald said the service cost about $150,000 a year to run and was predominantly funded by Wyndham council grants.

Anglicare is desperately seeking different funding streams to keep the program running. “This is going to be devastating for the many young people that have been attending our Werribee counselling support service,�

Mr McDonald said. “There is a burgeoning population of young people in Wyndham ‌ it’s quite staggering that the council is seeking to end this service rather than continue it or even develop the service more. “What trumps youth counselling and out-reach support to young people?â€?

Werribee teen Kodei Mulcahy, who used the service for three years when he was the subject of bullying and family problems, said the help he had received was invaluable.

The year 9 Manor Lakes College student called on Wyndham council to reconsider the funding cut. “There’s not many free counselling places around here – most places will give you five or

She called on state and federal governments to support programs such as Youth Futures.

six sessions for free, and then it costs you an arm and a leg to continue,� he said.

Wyndham council chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the council had funded the service through its Identified Needs Grants program since 2007 on a three-yearly basis.

Six Cambridge Primary School pupils faced ultimate battles last week, going head-to-head with peers from other schools in the Victorian Chess Championships.

Marc Capruciu, Ricky Roy, Nafi Anaan, George Zhou, Alex Clifford and chess captain Lachlan McConnell put their best strategies and tactics to work at the event, which was held at Kingswood College in Box Hill.

It was the first time Cambridge Primary School qualified for the state finals in the open category, and it placed 22nd out of 24 schools.

The feat comes a month after the school’s female chess team – which included pupils Ruthvika Nuthakki, Rylee Haddon, Anu Sendahand, Heli Patel, Selina Binter and Pehansa Dissanayake – placed 11th at the state finals in the primary school girls category.

The school’s new-found success can be attributed to teacher David Jarred, who started up a lunchtime chess club five years ago. Today, at least 50 kids from grade 3 up attend the club.

“Chess gives students a chance to shine at something that’s a bit different,” Mr Jarred said.

He said competition at the state finals was tough, with many of the competing schools including chess in their curriculum.

“It was like we were battling out of our league a little bit, but these kids were so enthusiastic.”

Lachlan, who has been part of the chess club from the start, said he was thrilled to go from a complete chess novice to team captain.

“I just wanted to learn how to play the game – now I thrash my dad,” he said.

Manslaughter appeal dismissed

By Adem Saban A Tarneit woman jailed for manslaughter after helping her husband hide the body of her boss, has had her sentence appeal dismissed.

Kamna Ramjutton pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the Supreme Court in December last year and was sentenced to eight years and six months’ jail for her role in the murder of the owner of the pizza shop at which she worked.

The court heard that the deceased went to

the couple’s house on May 9, 2013, to collect takings from one of his pizza shops but most of the money had been gambled away earlier that day.

There was a physical altercation that ended with Ramjutton’s husband, Kritsingh Dookheea, strangling the man. He then dragged the body into a spare room before police arrived.

On August 6 this year, Ramjutton made an appeal to have her sentence reduced, claiming that her culpability should be reduced because

‘‘

The offending is properly described as serious

’’

- Supreme Court

she was “carried along” by her husband’s actions.

She claimed that she was “significantly less culpable than an ordinarily strong-willed individual who makes an independent decision to offend”.

The three justices dismissed her appeal on November 23.

“The crown submits that the appellant’s sentence of eight years and six months falls comfortably within the mid-range of sentences for manslaughter,” they wrote. “In our view, the offending is properly described as extremely serious. Although the sentence is towards the upper end of the range of sentences available, we consider the sentence to be well within a sound exercise of the sentencing discretion.”

Dookheea was sentenced to 19 years jail.

Tarneit’s BMX bandit Tarneit BMX rider Jazmine Dalli will get a second shot at nationals glory next year after winning big at the recent BMX Victoria state titles.

The eight-year-old has capped off a mammoth year of competition by coming first in a field of 14 in the “girls 8” division at the recent state titles held in Shepparton.

Mum Amy said Jazmine blitzed two out of three motos.

She will now contest the 2016 BMX National Championships in Bathurst in February, where she we will be hoping to place in the top three.

The grade 3 Bethany Catholic Primary School pupil ditched ballet for BMX almost three years ago after seeing her brother Zachary giving it a go.

She competes with Geelong Thunder BMX club and trains twice a week under the guidance of coaches James Lautier and father-son team Fraser and Brandon Te Hiko.

Earlier this year Jazmine finished sixth in her first-ever nationals event, and has since displayed a “6A” plate on her bike to reflect her ranking.

Her latest win comes soon after Jazmine and Zachary were signed to Australian BMX race team GHP BMX Australia.

“She’s got a lot of work and training ahead of her,” Amy said.

“She’s proving to everyone that BMX is not just a boy’s sport.”

Jazmine, who idolises BMX riders Caroline Buchanan, Lauren Reynolds and Mariana Pajon, hopes to one day make BMX a career.

Sporting lift for Wyndham

Sam Leslie, Sam Donaldson, Matt Lee, Achille Maiotti and Domenic Salerno from My Physio, Wyndham Vale. (Damjan Janevski)

Team gets mo-ving

By Charlene Macaulay Growing facial hair turned into a team effort among staff at Wyndham Vale’s My Physio clinic last month.

Director Dominic Salerno, head sports physio Sam Leslie, and staff Sam Donaldson, Matt Lee and Achille Maiotti grew their best beards and moustaches for Movember, raising more than $1500 for men’s health.

Not people to do things by halves, the team also changed the clinic name to ‘Mo Physio’ during November, and added moustaches

to its ‘running man’ symbols throughout the practice.

Clients were also encouraged to get in on the act and vote for the best ‘mo’ by making a gold coin donation, and they could buy special T-shirts to wear during exercise classes.

Mr Leslie said it’s the first time the entire clinic had taken part in the fundraising event, with staff members proudly rocking handlebar moustaches while others went for full-blown beards.

Mr Maiotti went one step further and dyed his moustache blue part-way through

the month, but has since gone back to his trademark black, while Mr Donaldson copped some teasing when it took about three weeks for his moustache to grow. “One of the big issues surrounding men’s health is a lack of exercise,� Mr Leslie said. “The benefits of exercise are not just physical, but there’re also the mental benefits, and that was one of the things we were trying to promote, and have a bit of fun at the same time. “It’s OK to be tough, but we still have to look after ourselves.�

Wyndham sports centres will get facelifts, with the council allocating more than $734,000 towards projects.

Among three projects slated to go ahead is the resurfacing of the synthetic hockey pitch at Presidents Park at Wyndham Vale.

Tarneit’s Baden Powell Reserve will be home to a new regional skate park which will include new youth spaces, playgrounds, shelters and bench chairs.

Council is funding the design.

The third project will involve the supply and installation of play equipment at Snowgum Court Park at Hoppers Crossing.

Cr Peter Maynard, the council’s sport, leisure and open space portfolio holder, said the works would make it easier for residents to stay fit and active. “These works run the gamut, from sporting facility upgrades to new playgrounds, and ensure that people of all ages and interests can get out and enjoy our fantastic parks and reserves,�

Cr Maynard said.

He said the works were allocated as part of the council’s 2015-16 budget, which set aside $4 million to improvements at parks and reserves, and more than $8.7 million for redeveloping leisure facilities, sports clubs and playgrounds.

Rates cap passes into law

Wyndham Harbour is exhibiting works by self-taught artist DMR. (Damjan Janevski)

Life’s a beach for artist

By Charlene Macaulay A self-taught Hoppers Crossing artist, who goes by the name DMR, has opened her first solo show, Hemingway Hemingway, at Wyndham Harbour.

DMR upcycles materials she finds on Werribee South beach and turns them into three-dimensional art that carries environmental messages.

“I basically collect things from the beach at Werribee South, or other locations, and take those little parts and sink them into resin – I might make an eyeball out of them, or grass

out of the rope that I find,” she said. “In this exhibition, the hero piece is a whale.

“All the little details about him – the black lines of him – depict the oil polluting the sea, and the struggles that the whales encounter to survive.”

DMR has been creating art since she was 17, but has only turned her passion into a full-time career in the past six months.

“I painted for years in private, and my family walked in on my collection and demanded that I go straight to a gallery and pursue this.

When the opportunity came to exhibit my art

at Wyndham Harbour, I couldn’t say no – for me, it was the perfect location.

“It presents my work in its true environment, while highlighting the culture, local businesses and natural beauty of Werribee South.

“My work does three things – it cleans up the local beach, raises awareness about the importance of protecting our beautiful environment and, I hope more than anything, makes people smile.”

Hemingway will be on display at Wyndham Harbour, 50 Quay Boulevard, Werribee South, until December 19.

Labor’s plan to cap council rates has become reality, with legislation passing through State Parliament last week.

The legislation prevents councils from raising rates above a set cap, based on the consumer price index (CPI).

It also gives the Essential Services Commission greater oversight of all council spending, ensuring ongoing compliance and monitoring of outcomes for community benefit.

Local government minister Natalie Hutchins welcomed the passing of the legislation, saying it will improve local government accountability and transparency, while ensuring councils listen to their communities.

But the Opposition’s local government spokesman, David Davis, said it was impossible to base the cap on the CPI, which he described as a measure of price changes that have already occurred.

“What Ms Hutchins intends to do is have bureaucrats with crystal balls guess future movements in prices and then adjust that figure by whatever takes her fancy,” he said.

Wyndham council has consistently opposed rate capping. Chief executive Kelly Grigsby said it did not account for the continued cost-shifting and erosion of government grants. She also said it did not reflect the impacts of rapid residential growth on regions such as Wyndham.

The new system comes in for the 2016-17 financial year.

TOOLL UP Scout leader Kim Monk signs the book for Jen Reginio. (Supplied)

Scouts mark 100 years The 1st Werribee Scout Group celebrated its centenary last week with a book launch detailing its history.

Former scout leader Kim Monk and co-author Jim Mitchell spent the past 22 years collecting documents, photographs and personal recollections for the tome, which was originally meant to be released for the group’s 80th anniversary in 1995.

“There was too much to do and not enough information on hand,” Mr Monk said.

Two decades later, the book was finally launched last Thursday.

The 1st Werribee Scouts was founded by The Reverend Ash in 1915, and included 15 boys.

Girls first joined the ranks in the 1970s.

Today, the group has almost 100 young

Mr Monk said community support had kept the 1st Werribee Scout Group going.

“In the old days, the town was very supportive of all its community groups, and scouting offered a lot of the outdoor things that people were involved in anyway, so it was not an alien concept,” he said. “The leaders can make or break a Scout group. If they’re not good leaders, numbers dwindle and, if they are good leaders, the numbers grow.”

West councils hot on the trail

By Ben Cameron A 7.5 kilometre off-road shared trail along the railway line between Watergardens and Sunshine stations is the number one priority of a multi-council strategy to improve pathways in the west.

The western metropolitan region trails strategic plan seeks to improve the connectivity, quality and usage of regional trails in Melbourne’s west over the next decade, with input from Wyndham, Hobsons Bay, Maribyrnong and Melton councils.

‘‘

Funding could be a significant issue in … this proposed trail - Trails plan

’’

The plan found the west had “an incomplete network … (with) gaps in otherwise extensive trails, as well as trails that stop short of logical destinations or connections”.

The proposed Sydenham trail shared path has “the potential to provide a significant link

through the centre of the West Trails network,” the plan states.

“Due to the length of the trail (about 11 kilometres), funding could be a significant issue in implementing this proposed trail.

“There are also a number of major roads and potential rail line crossings that could pose potential issues.”

It’s proposed to connect a shared path with the current M80 trail, and a mooted Regional Rail Link trail, from “West Werribee to the existing selection of trail within the municipality of Brimbank”.

The path currently runs along the train line from West Footscray towards Sunshine.

The strategy also calls for an extension of the Sydenham rail trail along the railway line from Harvester Road to Sunshine station, and fill gaps in the Kororoit Creek trail, including between Burnside and Caroline Springs.

“The Kororoit Creek Trail is currently disconnected and only exists are certain lengths along the Kororoit Creek,” it found.

The council and VicRoads worked on a detailed alignment plan for the Sydenham trail three years ago.

Australia’s biggest week in water made a massive splash in Hillside last week with about 2000 young swimmers taking part in water safety lessons. Paul Sadler Swimland centre manager Brett Connors said the young swimmers, including five-year-old Aniela (pictured) were taught CPR, water rescue, how to use life jackets and under-water swimming as part of SwimSAFER Week. “They also learnt to tread water fully clothed, so they’re aware of that sensation if they ever get themselves into trouble,” he said. Swim Australia says kids are safer, smarter and stronger by learning to swim.

Life has its lighter side When you’re a patient in hospital, you don’t usually think of your doctor or nurse as having a creative side bursting to come out.

But, once every two years, staff from Werribee Mercy and the Mercy Hospital for Women show their lighter sides, as they did again last Friday when Mercy Health hosted its staff revue, Have You Got the Mercy Factor Factor.

Surgeons, nurses and administration staff performed 11 acts, including an X-Factor-style talent show, Bollywood dancers, singers, a band, and even a poet.

Mercy Health’s chief executive of health services, Linda Mellors, said Have You Got the Mercy Factor won rave reviews from the audience of family and friends, as well as judges.

“It was the first time the talent show was held

at both Werribee Mercy Hospital and Mercy Hospital for Women,” Dr Mellors said. “[There was] a camera linking the two sites to ensure staff could see and hear each performance in real time.

“A performance of two popular Madonna and Taylor Swift songs by emergency nurses at Werribee Mercy Hospital had everyone on their feet,” she said, adding this performance received three perfect scores from judges and was crowned the Werribee winner. A tongue-in-cheek performance about the gynaecology department by two staff specialists at the Heidelberg campus, was declared Mercy Hospital for Women’s overall winner.

Residents thumb nose at study

By Adem Saban and Esther Lauaki Werribee residents have rubbished a recent study that ranked their neighbourhoods poorly on a suburban liveability test.

The Liveable Melbourne report released last month ranked Werribee 296 out of 321 suburbs in greater Melbourne in terms of liveability.

The liveability index survey scored suburbs from zero to five, zero being the worst, relating to crime rate, cafes and restaurants, culture, telecommunications coverage, public transport and shopping facilities.

The Deloitte-Tract study reported: “Werribee has only a small cultural sector, with almost no cafes, plus a high crime rate, all of which are factors that detract from its liveability. There are also few schools, public open spaces and hills in the area.

“On the upside, bus access is excellent and there are few congested roads.”

Other Wyndham suburbs included in the study include Point Cook, ranked at 309, Hoppers Crossing (272) and Laverton at 183.

Star Weekly surveyed residents on the streets of Werribee and most criticised the study’s findings.

Samantha Parker, a Werribee resident of 30 years, labelled the study as “ridiculous”.

“We have plenty of cafes around town, and plenty of schools with more being built in the area,” she said. “In terms of there being few public open spaces – I have four young children and we have plenty of parks to choose from.”

She said the roads were very congested.

Lifelong Werribee local Suzanne Panhorst said residents were spoilt for choice when it came to cafes and restaurants.

“We have so many, many offering different cultural foods,” she said. “Werribee is just growing in this department and will continue

Why they ranked poorly: This is what the Liveable Melbourne report said: Werribee (ranked 296) “Werribee has only a small cultural sector, with almost no cafes, plus a high crime rate, all of which are factors that detract from its liveability. There are also few schools, public open spaces and hills in the area. On the upside, bus access is excellent and there are few congested roads.”

Point Cook (309) “Point Cook’s liveability is dropping as the crime rate of the area increases. It scores well for coastline proximity and public open space such as Point Cook Coastal Park, but is deprived of culture, tree cover, cafes, shops and schools.”

Hoppers Crossing (272) “Hoppers Crossing offers residents sizeable shopping facilities, great bus access and relatively clear roads. It is dragged down mainly by the lack of tree cover and its high crime rate. More public open spaces would also improve the area.”

“I completely disagree with what they’ve said,” he said. “Werribee is a developing space with a great art, cultural and entertainment sector. We have plenty on offer and will continue to grow.”

Mr Christou said Werribee had high-quality restaurants.

Chatterbox Cafe owner, Sal El-Hassan also disagreed with the study’s findings.

“Werribee cafes would put most on the other side of the city to shame,” he said. “We’re also seeing the expansion of Werribee Plaza [Pacific Werribee] which is bringing more to the region.”

to grow. Over the years I’ve noticed the roads get busier and busier. Suggesting we have few congested roads is not true.”

The head of the Wyndham Business and Tourism Association, Nick Christou, suggested those responsible for the study visit the town and speak to locals.

Laverton (183) “Its highest scores are in the categories of coastline proximity, schools, trams and trains. Laverton’s liveability is disadvantaged by the lack of tree cover and topographic variation of the area, and would rank higher with a lower crime rate.

ADVERTORIAL

A business with a difference moved into Watton St late last and year and have recently celebrated their 1st Birthday in style. Richmond Captain Trent Cotchin was in attendance, and much needed funds were raised for the Werribee CFA.

“I’m an asthmatic and tried a few salt therapy seasons at another Salts of the Earth centre – there a few in Melbourne. I found that it really helped and I slept better and had more

“It appealed to me to be involved in a business that helps peoples health. It’s really great to see the improvement in their symptoms.”

Salts of the Earth caters to people of all ages. A room full of toys, a television and bean bags is available for children. The adult room offers comfortable massage chairs and relaxing music.

A private room can also be booked by people with chronic and contagious conditions, or skin conditions where more privacy is required to expose the skin to salt.

Jacqui emphasises that salt therapy is not a stand-alone treatment; it is a natural

complementary therapy that works in conjunction with prescribed medication. She said that people are different so while some people get instant relief, for others it takes time, depending on their condition.

“But it’s really gratifying to see how it can work. We have a 40 year old man with cystic fibrosis that has never been able to get a good nights sleep because he has had so much congestion but now he can.”

Salts of the Earth is open 7 days a week.

Bookings can be made online or by phoning the number below.

8742 4393 werribee@saltsoftheearth.com.au www.saltsoftheearth.com.au

If you are yet to see what they have to offer, please come down and have a chat to one of their friendly salt therapists. With Christmas just around the corner, gift vouchers are available.

MY WYNDHAM Caroline Esbenshade moved to Point Cook from the US to be with partner Andrew. The 27-year-old artist is painting marine life along Wyndham’s coastline during an artist in residency program with Wyndham council. She speaks to Charlene Macaulay.

What made you pursue a career in the arts?

I’ve always done art. By the time I got to the later part of high school, I knew I wanted to do fine art in uni, and I actually looked at going to some fine art schools. My dad and I thought, financially, I could either go to the Pratt Institute and do painting at one of the best art schools in the country, or I could go to a state school and go abroad for a year. I wanted to go abroad, so I took the state school option.

I have a Bachelor of Arts from James Madison University, and my majors were studio art and a double major in media arts and design.

What’s your preferred art form?

It’s predominantly painting. I really like oil paint, and I’ve recently got into using a little bit of watercolour. Oil just makes sense to me, but

watercolour is a really nice medium to teach in.

Tell me about the artist in residency you are doing at Featherbrook Community Centre.

My partner said maybe I should do something about the marine park, and then we went to the Great Barrier Reef, and I really wanted to do marine stuff. Now I’m here surrounded by shells and fish and mermaids.

I try to be here Tuesdays and Thursdays every week, I also spend a lot of time here on the weekend. It’s nice to have the freedom, so that if the weather is really nice, I can go down for a snorkel to get more inspiration.

You’ve been doing the residency for two months now. How have you found it?

It’s awesome. Before the residency started, it wouldn’t be unusual for me to spend the day working on a painting, but it makes it easier having a dedicated space outside the home.

You put in an entry for the Archibald prize last year – who did you paint?

At one of the local art exhibitions I went to, Passage Through Ceremony, Andrew and I got to meet [artist] Gayle Maddigan. She was such a striking person. She was really interested in us, and what we had to say, and she listened. I loved her work, I loved her, and I wanted to paint her.

Do you have a favourite piece of your work?

It was something I painted just for myself, and it kind of got me through my recovery [from a car accident]. I called it Osaka … inspired by a documentary called The Great Happiness Space.

(Damjan Janevski)

What’s your connection to Wyndham?

I’m from the US, from Virginia. I was a military brat – I spent a lot of time in Japan when I was little, and in a few different states, but always on the east coast.

The first time I came to Australia was for uni; I came out for a year and then went back to finish my degree. Then I came back and met my partner, Andrew, with only four months left on my visa, so I had to leave. But then I came back and I’ve been here now for two years.

I started living in Point Cook because Andrew lives here. He moved out here nine or 10 years ago because he works in aquaculture and he loves the Point Cook Marine Sanctuary.

He wanted to live somewhere where he could go out snorkelling every weekend. Now I love it too, and it’s a shared passion for us.

A suggestion that east and south ridings combine to form a breakaway municipality is the first of many expected proportions for secession from Werribee shire. Council resolved to form a committee to study the effects of Werribee become a city, of the east breaking away, but set no date for the completion of the study.

East riding councillor Stuart Southwick on Monday night threatened to shut down two of his Laverton North businesses if council offered them only temporary special trade registration. But Werribee council went ahead and limited the registration for Cedel Products, for which Cr Southwick is managing director.

Wyndham Vale residents have vowed to march in protest against poor roads in Werribee west after a 3000-strong crowd rallied at the Werribee Racecourse on Monday night. The rally was called by the newly formed Wyndham Traffic Reform Group, which expects thousands to march from Chirnside Park along Watton Street to the civic centre.

Hundreds of ducks at the western treatment plant wetlands have been killed by an unconfirmed illness, in the biggest of its kind so far recorded. Avian influenza – or bird flu – has been ruled out as the cause of the deaths, which were discovered last week. About 400 birds have died.

FOOD REVIEW

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir stumbles out of the rain and into … saucey heaven Team CTS bowls up for the opening party of BigWest an hour after the advertised start time, and find the whole shebang and everyone involved pretty much just getting over the rain.

What to do?

Eat! So we adjourn to nearby Nicholson Street and the recently opened Afghan Master Kebab, a sister restaurant to the popular eatery of the same name in Sunshine.

Sister restaurant?

More like identical twins.

The menu line-up appears to be the same, save for the addition of such stuff as fish and chips.

Mind you, the Footscray edition is done out in perfectly fine and plain cafe style that in no way matches the flamboyant interior found up at Sunshine!

Three of us choose the mix kebab ($13.99) and a delight it is.

Four skewers – two of superbly juicy chicken and one each of the minced kebab kobida lamb and the diced lamb cubes of tikka kebab.

They’re all wonderful.

Elsewhere around town, in restaurants that vary from Greek and Turkish to barbecue, it’s easily possible to pay significantly more for meat that is not so fabulous.

As in Sunshine, acceptable yet largely superfluous salad bits and two dipping sauces accompany.

The chilli and mint number is a doozy while, here, the yogurt dip seems a bit more tangy

AFGHAN MASTER KEBAB Address: 131 Nicholson Street, Footscray Phone: 9396 0201 and has a richer, dairy flavour. Our meals come with heaps of the wonderful Afghan Master Kebab bread – a bit like naan, but chewier and just right slathered in the sauces.

After a slightly underwhelming experience with chargrilled chook earlier in the week, it’s a giddy pleasure to inhale the Master Kebab half chicken ($14.99).

A bit pricier … but THIS is charcoal-grilled chicken.

On an earlier visit, I’d tried the chicken qorma ($12), one of a handful of non-grilled offerings on the menu.

It’s nice enough, mildly seasoned and a generous serve.

But, if anything, it serves only to reinforce the notion that food on sticks is the way to go here.

A community forum will be held on December 7 from 6.30pm to give interested residents the chance to be part of a new junior soccer club. The aim for the 2016 season is to develop mini-roos teams only (up to under 11s), with the idea of growing to encompass all age groups in future years.

TRAVEL STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

The Huon food trail “I like to think of Tasmania as the gangly weird girl in high school.” Former MasterChef contestant turned TV chef and restaurateur Ben Milbourne is describing the evolution of his home state to a room full of visitors, and none of us are really sure where he’s going with it.

He continues: “Then you get the invite back for your 10-year reunion, and you notice this really different, beautiful girl standing at the bar. You have a chat to her and you realise she’s confident but subdued, and quirky and quiet … so you change your flights and stay a little longer to get to know her.”

It’s fitting that this analogy is being delivered in the private dining room of a cavernous art gallery widely lauded as the reason for the duckling-swan transformation of Tasmania’s tourism industry.

Home to one of the world’s most controversial art collections, MONA (Museum of Old and New Art) has lured more than a million visitors across Bass Strait since it opened at the start of 2011.

When multimillionaire David Walsh excavated a colossal chunk from the banks of the Derwent River to build the $75 million subterranean gallery, he effectively buried the stubborn ‘Slo-bart’ pejorative deep below its sandstone foundations.

Locals love him for it, speaking of the professional gambler-turned-art-collector in hushed, reverent tones. But while MONA-mania doesn’t seem to be losing any steam, its surroundings have also thrived.

Our plan is to eat and drink our way through one of these flourishing regions, a fertile bit of land known as the Huon Valley.

It’s about 40 kilometres south of Hobart, barely a blip on the odometer of the new Honda HR-V, our chariot for the journey. The compact SUV seems at home both in circumnavigating the city’s morning peak and in hugging the generous curves of the Huon Highway as it makes its way towards the southernmost tip of Australia.

En route we roll to a smooth stop at Nutgrove Beach, where a kitsch-looking 1950s caravan is exuding a heady fragrance. Bentwood Coffee

is the brainchild of chippie Chris Spillane and his wife, barista Megan McTurk, who were, in Chris’ words, “sick of waiting in line at music festivals for crap coffee”. The couple restored the old caravan using recycled materials, stocked up on locally roasted Zimmah beans plus a selection of teas and treats, and have been parking themselves around Tasmania since 2013.

If Bentwood represents Tasmania’s new purveyors of local produce, William Smith &

Sons’ apple farm is the stalwart. Established in 1888, the orchard is one of the oldest still operating in the Huon Valley. Buoyed by the area’s clear air, water and nutrient-rich soil, fourth-generation grower Andrew Smith took his great-grandfather’s farm organic in 1999, before establishing Australia’s first organic cidery in 2012.

About 50 kilometres south of Willie Smith’s, Peter and Frances Bender are also making the most of Tasmania’s natural assets. Long

before Australians found their taste for fresh salmon, the former cattle farmers decided to experiment with fish farming on their 11 kilometres of ocean frontage at Hideaway Bay. Almost three decades later, Huon Aquaculture is Tasmania’s second-largest salmon farm and boasts a $200 million turnover.

Every salmon pulled out of the water is sashimi-grade, thanks to state-of-the-art pens that provide a happy, healthy environment.

There’s also the small factor of some of the purest air and water in the world thanks to their isolated position. “Next stop, Antarctica,” Frances Bender says.

Our next stop is a little easier to reach. Nestled in the foothills of the Huon Valley, Home Hill Winery Restaurant has collected a swag of accolades since opening in 1993, most recently

HR-V ON THE HUON HIGHWAY

at the Royal Hobart International Wine Show 2014. “Tasmania’s Best Red Wine” – a 2012 pinot – tastes even better sitting on the terrace of the rammed-earth-and-timber restaurant, particularly when paired with its menu of produce sourced from just a few paddocks over.

No food tour of Tasmania would be complete without cheese, our final destination is the cellar door of Bruny Island Cheese Company, tucked behind the sandstone facade of Hobart’s Salamanca Arts Centre.

Cheese-maker Nick Haddow and his wife Leonie Struthers fell in love with Bruny island while visiting in 2001 and started the business soon after. If you can’t get out to the island that made the couple change their flights and “stay a little longer”, then sampling their produce will at least give you a taste of it.

It might even be enough to have you pushing out your own flights a day or two.

Showcasing timber floorboards, a charmingly modern décor and light-filled spaces, this house makes its refined presence known in Bronzewing Street.

The fresh design in the family-meals zone is a welcome surprise and the kitchen has a wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, breakfast bar and heaps of storage.

Close to an array of Williams Landing amenities, this house has family living covered.

The kitchen has a wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher and both glass and tiled splashback.

The undercover timber-decked pergola is a great outdoor space and with some work the backyard could become the property’s entertainment hub.

The property includes a single carport and a garden shed.

Double glazed doors open from the family room to a gabled pergola above concrete.

Decking extends from here and along the back to another covered pergola. This is a terrific entertainment zone, one well able to cater for sheltered sitting or getting some vitamin D in the sunshine.

Williams Landing is offering city-style living in the heart of the west. (Supplied)

NEW HOMES AND LAND – Newton Apartments You don’t have to live in inner Melbourne to have the city life. You can now live like a city-slicker in Williams Landing.

The first-ever apartment building will begin construction in Williams Landing and it will be one of only a few multi-residential buildings to be constructed in Melbourne’s middle-ring western suburbs.

State manager at Victoria and Queensland Cedar Woods Properties, Nathan Blackburne, says not everyone is looking for a family house.

“Melbourne’s west already has considerable family homes, but we wanted to ensure the desires of all buyers are being catered for in Williams Landing,” he says.

The Newton Apartments are targeting the new demographic of buyers in the Wyndham area, offering apartments to young professionals who need space but at an affordable price.

“We’ve prioritised developing larger apartments that will cater to young

professionals and even families,” Nathan says.

Apartment prices range from high-$200,000s to mid-$300,000 and the majority are two-bedroom dwellings, each with their own carpark and storage cage.

Newton Apartments is across the road from the Williams Landing shopping centre and within a walk of public transport, retail and medical services and parklands.

“The proximity of the site to the Williams Landing train station and bus interchange

provides easy access to public transport which is very rare in the western suburbs of Melbourne,” says Nathan.

Williams Landing.

3 Opsum Way, Williams Landing.

Opens noon-4pm Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday, or by appointment.

Time to get up to speed on backups

By Peter Wells, The Age

‘‘

The hard drive in your computer will die. It will pass away

’’

(iStock)

Do you have simple automated backups and multiple copies of your important data?

The hard drive in your computer will die.

The digital container of all those baby photos, essays and confidential documents you took with you from a previous job? It, too, will pass away.

It’s not a matter of if, but when. Your only hope is the drive will die peacefully, in landfill.

So are you ready? Do you have simple, automated backups in place and multiple copies of your most important data?

I know this topic is incredibly boring, but after 10 long years in IT I’ve seen too many people lose too many photos, phone numbers and important documents. And there’s really no need for anyone to lose data today.

Windows and OS X both ship with built-in backup software that’s easy to configure. If you’ve set up a Time Machine backup on your Mac, or Windows Backup on your PC, congratulations, you’ve done more than most.

Time Machine and Windows Backup are fantastic, but a single Time Machine or Windows Backup would not give me peace of mind, especially if the backup was set to a portable USB drive hanging off the back of your machine.

For one, that USB drive is not the most reliable technology in the world — sure, you’d be pretty unlucky for your USB backup to die at the same time as your computer, but it happens.

If you’re ready to move up to professional backup software, I’d recommend Crashplan.

There are better looking solutions out there, but nothing is as versatile. Crashplan can back up to that USB drive on your desk, and countless other locations. Backup your home computer

to your work machine, and vice versa. Because the backup is encrypted; only you can see your files, so you can trust the backup at an offsite location. And because the backup will run over any network connection, there’s no USB drive to remember to plug into your laptop.

You can even back up to Crashplan’s servers.

And if your internet is as slow as mine, ask them to send you a USB drive in the mail, do the initial backup to the drive, then ship it back

and they’ll do the rest.

Next, lean on cloud services to create further backups and duplicates of your most valuable data. Cloud services give you yet another offsite backup while giving you fast, convenient access to your files, especially on mobile devices.

I’ve uploaded my entire digital music collection to Google Music. It allows 50,000 songs to be stored in a digital locker that can be accessed on any Android or iPhone, Mac or PC.

For photos, I’m using Google Photos and Flickr. Google provides unlimited photo storage for compressed images; Flickr offers a terabyte of storage for free.

For those important, work-in-progress documents, use Dropbox, Office 365 or Google Docs. Backup software and cloud services have made offsite backup easy enough for any user to configure. Stop relying oπn that old USB drive, stop worrying, and learn to love the cloud.

88 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ DECEMBER 2, 2015

SPORT Medley of mates brings home bronze Wyndham Track and Field Club made giant strides in only its second foray into the Victorian state relay titles.

The club picked up a bronze medal in the open men’s medley at Lakeside Stadium on Saturday, despite fielding a team that had never run together before.

In only its third season, Leigh Lewellin, Chris Mitrevski, Paul Parker and Josh Hayes made club history, becoming its first medallists and echoing form they have shown in individual events to take the team prize.

The feat was all the more commendable as Parker is just back from injury. He was only given the green light to run by coach Errol Hart two days before the event.

Lewellin ran the 800 metres, Parker did the

400 metres and Mitrevski and Hayes did the 200-metre legs.

It was the first time Lewellin and Parker have won state medals.

“The guys, who have never done this type of relay before, combined exceptionally well,” Hart said. “We knew we had a chance of going close … but, as with every relay, there are risks.

“With our focus on good baton changes, we put ourselves in with a very good chance.”

Tom Oski, the team’s reserve, turned up on Sunday to cheer on club mates rather than celebrate his 17th birthday, such is the passion.

The relay was run in two heats with no final – the medals being awarded on heat times.

Wyndham clocked 3:32.17, beaten only by much larger clubs Knox and Ringwood.

IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ How

Wyndham’s open men’s medley team show off their bronze medals. (Supplied)

strong is football in the western suburbs? That was the question on everyone’s lips after last week’s two AFL drafts. Selected in the rookie draft were Williamstown VFL pair Andrew Gallucci (Carlton) and Adam Macron (Richmond) and bolter Luke Goetz (Bulldogs) after just nine matches for Western Jets. In contrast to the six Jets drafted last year, it was disappointing and it prompted former Bulldogs star Steve Kretiuk to post on social media: “Disappointing to see no local Western Region players picked up in AFL draft.

The WRFL needs to do more to help develop players at a younger age before they get to Western Jets. It all starts at a junior age, where both the league and clubs must focus on creating better players and not just on winning games. Take the selfish win-at-all-costs attitudes out and then we may see more local boys playing in the AFL.” As a former Western Jets coach and current senior coach at Hoppers Crossing, Kretiuk has the credentials to have his say and his thoughts have been echoed by many others on social media. I’ve seen the standard of the under-18 finals series competition drop dramatically in recent years and the numbers of local boys making it to VFL level has fallen, away too. I applaud Kretiuk for airing his thoughts and I hope someone listens and acts.

Tigers win rep caps

By Lance Jenkinson What a week it was for Werribee Cricket Club on and off the field.

The Tigers had a stirring first XI win, were victorious in a mid-week Twenty20 game and had three of its gun players confirmed for representative honours.

Tigers player-coach Mitch Johnstone and opening batsman Matt Dean will be front and centre for the Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association when it battles the Victorian Country Cricket League in their annual one-day game at Noble Park on Sunday.

It will be the first time Johnstone and Dean have obtained coveted VSDCA caps.

Johnstone, the first-year Tigers skipper, is looking forward to rubbing shoulders with the best players in his association and the bush.

“It’s a good opportunity for Matt and myself to play with the cream of the crop in the competition,” he said. “To play with players like Aaron Maynard and David McKay, who is captain, is a privilege.”

The VSDCA team is mostly extracted from last summer’s competition team of the year.

Johnstone has been solid with the ball since his arrival from Roxburgh Park Broadmeadows, taking nine wickets at 18.9 with his off-spin.

Dean is one of the form batsmen in the competition with 270 runs at 67.

He has hit two centuries this season and more runs than anyone but Brighton’s Ben Clements (329 at 82) and his brother, Shaun (340 at 340).

“Matt’s had a sensational start to the season and it’s thoroughly deserved,” Johnstone said.

If Johnstone and Dean are the present, Matt Watt is undoubtedly the future.

Watt has been named in the Victorian Metro 15 and under schoolboys team to play at the national championships in Brisbane in February.

Selected as a fast bowler, Watt is starting to show signs he could blossom into a bowling all-rounder.

“He plays in our third XI and is a good chance to play in our seconds at some stage during the course of the season,” Johnstone said.

“He’s a fantastic young prospect and I think he’s pretty highly rated at Cricket Victoria.

“He bowls at good pace from a big height and his batting is coming along quite nicely, too.”

The good news week continued on the field at Werribee.

The young Tigers continued to impress in a 27-run Twenty20 win over Sunshine on Tuesday night. The momentum continued into Saturday when they produced a magnificent run chase to beat Brighton by seven wickets.

Set a mammoth 284, the Tigers reached the target with 29 balls to spare, led by centuries from Tim O’Brien (134 off 138 balls) and Shaun Dean (100no off 177).

The Tigers will host Malvern in a two-day game at Chirnside Park starting on Saturday.

Hoppers Crossing played out a low-scoring tie with Malvern, with both sides bowled out for 133.

Alex Wyatt was outstanding for the Cats with 6-42 off 16 overs.

The Cats will host Moorabbin at a two-dayer at Hogans Road Reserve.

■ There’ll

be old and new faces at Barkers Cafe at Whitten Oval this Friday night, for the Bulldogs Past Players and Officials Association’s pre-Christmas function. Some greats of the past will be there, as will last week’s draftees.

week for the crew at Hoppers Crossing Cricket Club. Last Sunday’s charity matches between Hoppers and Werribee raised $3598 for Movember. The Tigers won the two games and a good day was enjoyed by all. Then Hoppers played Sub-District matches against Malvern, with the first XI away and the seconds at home. The seconds needed to take four wickets for 36 to earn first-innings points, but then the computerised sprinkler system turned on and it was game over, match abandoned. The first XI had its moments defending a modest total of 133. Malvern wickets fell consistently and a tight finish was on the cards.

With the scores tied and one Malvern wicket left, Cameron Nicol effected a run-out from square leg to earn the boys from Hogans Road a tie.

Teen star in for the long haul

By Liam Twomey Billie Arch has learnt already that not everything goes to plan in the life of a young athlete.

But her adaptability and refusal to be knocked down is proof she has all the makings of a champion.

For the past five years, Arch has owned the 400 metre event at both little athletics for Brimbank and in youth competition for Western Athletics.

She has been crowned national champion five times and all indications were that a sixth crown wasn’t too far away.

With none of her fellow competitors able to stop her, only bad luck could get in Arch’s way.

The 16-year-old was struck down by a viral infection last year which derailed her preparation for the 2014-15 season.

But despite being sidelined for two months, Arch didn’t want her hard work to go to waste.

“When I got sick it meant I couldn’t do 400 metre races because it would be too tough on my immune system,” she said.

“With my coaches, we thought I might as well try long jump. It would be a bit easier on me and it might just be a bit of fun.

“From there, things just sort of happened.”

Soon after making the switch, Arch finished third at the Victorian Championships, which qualified her for the nationals.

And despite being a relative rookie in the event, she went on to claim the gold medal.

“I couldn’t believe it,” Arch said. “I still don’t

90 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ DECEMBER 2, 2015

really believe it. I don’t even really see myself as a long jumper.”

The win meant Arch was selected to represent Australia at the Commonwealth Youth Games held in Samoa in September.

And her fairytale run continued, with the Keilor Downs College student smashing her personal best by 15 centimetres to jump 6.04 metres.

The effort was enough to claim a silver medal and highlight her name as a rising star on the world stage.

“It’s definitely the highlight for me so far,” she said. “It was such an amazing experience to compete overseas and compete in Australian gear. It was absolutely crazy.”

With her health now back to 100 per cent, Arch will continue to try her luck in the long jump, with an eye towards qualifying for next year’s world youth championships.

For her outstanding sporting achievements Arch has been named as a monthly nominee for the Don Deeble Rising Star award.

The award is run by Sunshine Western Region Sports Club in conjunction with Star Weekly.

Arch will receive $1000 donated by Yarraville Club Cricket Club and other prizes to assist in her future sporting goals.

The Don Deeble Rising Star award recognises young athletes in the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at a state and national level.

To nominate someone for the award, email ltwomey@starweekly.com.au

Panic sets in as troubled Bees look for a way out

James Cousins was lead for Werribee’s best rink on Saturday. (Damjan Janevski)

Werribee is treading water in Bowls Victoria division 1.

The Bees entered the season with a lot of hype but have so far failed to deliver on their promise.

A winless November has them a long way from where they want to be – among the finals contenders.

Unless some wins start to come, the Bees could soon be on a downward spiral and in the relegation conversation.

With his side fourth-last on the ladder after Saturday’s 75-72 loss to Essendon at Chirnside Park on Saturday, Bees skip Snowy Barker knows his side is in dangerous territory.

“I’m too scared to look,” he told Star Weekly.

Werribee was left to rue an under-performing rink in the tight loss to the Bombers. Rob Panton went down by 14 to continue a barren

run for his quartet. That result overshadowed solid performances from Mick O’Neil (+9), Barker (+3) and Peter Ware (-1).

Changes have been forecast for Panton’s rink after the heavy loss – and they could include the skip.

“We’re going to change it up again this week,” Barker said. “It gets to a point when you have to.

I spoke to Rob about it and there’s no drama.

He’s been beaten in his last few now.”

The Bees’ terrible 2-6 record has mostly been a matter of individual rinks letting them down.

They have a positive shot difference because their losses have mostly been close.

Yet the points are not coming so there is a bit of panic in the camp.

They have also dropped their past two matches at Watton Street, which historically has been a fortress.

Barker will continue to back his club to find a way out of the hole.

“It’s frustrating … but we’ll go out next week and try to turn it around,” he said.

The Bees have a must-win clash with bottom side Altona (2) away on Saturday.

In division 2, Hoppers Crossing was pipped 90-83 by finals contender Port Melbourne but still picked up six valuable points to avoid falling to the bottom of the ladder.

Hoppers will square off with last-placed Rosamond away on Saturday.

In mid-week premier division, newly promoted Werribee has lost heavily to Glenroy and Lalor in consecutive weeks.

The Bees have maintained their spot in the top four despite a last-start 77-43 loss to Lalor.

Falcons build up for life at the top

Bridge back in the game

By Lance Jenkinson Bellbridge was on the brink of disaster until a final session fight-back left its battle with Melton Centrals hanging in the balance in a blockbuster at Mossfiel Reserve on Saturday.

The Bridge, leaders of the Williamstown and District Cricket Association A turf ladder after five rounds, was reeling at 8-75 before the tailend batsmen pulled a rabbit out of a hat to improve the score to a defendable 159.

The Bridge’s day got even better with Centrals having to face six overs before stumps and stumbling to be 2-7 in reply.

As Bridge president Mark Croswell said, no batsmen wants to come out with six overs to go in the day.

“It’s a tricky little period – we were lucky to get both openers,” he said. “It puts pressure on everyone else who will need to make the runs for them.

“It’s game on next week … we’ve got to make sure we get a couple of early breakthroughs and hopefully break the game wide open.

“As long as we can take our chances next week, we’ll be right in it.”

Bellbridge’s lack of application with the bat earlier in the day threatened to unravel its innings.

The Bridge lost wickets in clumps and struggled for continuity.

The only resistance offered in the top order came through Dave Henderson, who dug in to make 37 and frustrate the Centrals bowlers.

“He was out there for at least 35 to 40 overs and really held it together for us,” Croswell said.

“He was very patient and waited for that bad ball to hit. It was good to see at least one of the batsmen apply themselves.”

The bulk of Bellbridge’s runs came through the most unlikely sources.

Scott Walker made 20 at No.8 and was part

of a 39-run stand with Andrew Wilks (34no).

Then Wilks featured in a 45-run partnership with Croswell (27).

“The top-order batsmen just didn’t really fire,” Croswell said.

“We had one batsman make runs but the rest of them just didn’t go on and failed to take some opportunities.

“So those last two partnerships were vital to put us on to a stage where we had at least a competitive total.”

In A-grade matting, Glen Orden posted 7-236 against Deer Park, which was 0-10 in reply.

Williams Landing could scrounge out only 135 against Melton Centrals, while Truganina will need 198 for victory over Sunshine United.

In B-grade matting, Tarneit requires a further 113 for victory over Caroline Springs with nine wickets in hand.

A host of firsts will ensure the Western Region Football League starts with a bang next season.

The league released its official fixture last week, with round one kicking off in division 2 on April 2 and in divisions 1 and 3 the following weekend.

The opening round in division 1 will have Wyndhamvale making its debut among the competition’s elite sides. The newly promoted Falcons will be at home to last season’s wooden spooner, Albion.

Albion avoided relegation only because Port Melbourne Colts left the division to join the Southern Football League, while Wyndhamvale booked its place in the top grade by smashing West Footscray in the division 2 grand final.

The Falcons have wasted no time strengthening their list for the jump in class, with Brian Graham one of the big-name signings to join the club.

Brian, the brother of premiership captain Chris Graham, is a multiple best-and-fairest winner in the North Gippsland Football League.

Albanvale, who are Wyndhamvale’s replacement in division 2, faces a tough task in its first match since promotion.

The Cobras will take on West Footscray in their opening game.

In division 3, Newport Power will be on the road for its first match since becoming a WRFL senior club. Power starts the season away at Tarneit, with the club’s first home clash against Braybrook a week later.

Newport has made an early splash in its new surroundings, signing former Hawthorn premiership player Mark Williams to coach the club for its inaugural senior season. The 32-year-old was drafted by the Hawks in 2001 and went on to play 111 games for the club.

Williams won’t be the only former star to be officially introduced to the WRFL in the early stages of the season.

Brian Lake (Caroline Springs), Paul Chapman (Werribee Districts) and Brendan Fevola (Deer Park) will also call the WRFL home.

Other fixture highlights • The WRFL grand finals will be split over two weeks with the division 3 and 2 games to be played in the first weekend of September. The division 1 game will be played the following Saturday.

• Senior interleague football returns for the third straight year, with the WRFL drawn to take on the Ballarat Football League on either May 21 or 22.

Betting tips to flutter by examined but no betting system exists that will work consistently, although chances can be improved by identifying certain factors, say some experts.

Casual punters are known to employ all kinds of esoteric patterns to pin down a winner. Children’s or family members’ birth dates, the jockey’s colours, the horse’s colour, jockey’s name, anniversary dates, dreams or simple hunches: each has been used to back a winner and many stick superstitiously with their chosen system. And why not? It can be as effective as any other, make a great post-race story and ‘prove’ one’s psychic peek into the doings of the universe.

• Look for a horse that came off a layoff in his last race. If he showed speed and faded at the end of the race, or has a closing running style and came up short at the finish, he might be a horse that needed a freshener and will improve in his next start.

Remember, there is no such thing as a sure thing!

But good luck and hopefully you will leave the track with a heavy pocket and a light step.

• Take careful note of a horse in the mounting yard; how he looks and acts can be key indicators of success. A horse with droopy ears or out to the side like a propeller is tired and lethargic – don’t bet on him. If his tail is pinned down between his legs he is afraid of something – don’t bet on him. Look for a horse that holds his head level; too low can be a signal that he is tired or not interested. Finally, look at how the horse is walking; a big, athletic walk is the one to look out for. If the hind foot doesn’t reach the same point (or beyond) as his front foot landing spot, it may mean the horse is very sore.

Trackside fashion trends head down boho straights Getting frocked up for a trackside ‘occasion event’ such as the Werribee Cup can be a real treat, a chance to glam it up, to see and be seen. We love the girlie thing, no matter our age: shopping for an outfit and all the accessories, finding out what our friends are wearing, anticipation of fun.

We plan which essentials to stow in our stylish bag, or, heaven help us, a clutch - able to carry only lippy and one tissue. Where will we put our hairbrush, sunscreen, pain killers, mints, hand disinfectant, touch-up makeup?

But choosing the outfit, one you love and, just as importantly, feel comfortable in is the really big-deal pre-Cup decision. And sometimes it’s a challenging one, so here are some tips from industry fashionistas for what’s on-trend at the track: Flowerchild bohemian vibe While structured and tailored is always en pointe, this racing season we’re seeing flowing maxi dresses, especially paisleys and florals, floppy wide-brimmed hats, hemline tassels, fringing and 1970s-look jumpsuits. Floral halos crown the look if you’re into a vibrant young look.

Lace at the race Lace is all over red carpets and it translates well to the racetrack. It’s seen on those flowy maxi dresses and blouses with a hint of hippy, and it’s the favourite clothing trim and a star in sculptured headpieces.

94 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ DECEMBER 2, 2015

It’s a princess thing Headbands with a right-royal twist are all the go, with interpretations ranging from tiara styles in gold, bronze and coppers through to leather headbands sporting gold leaves, and spiky gunmetal versions.

Whatever your age, some kind of hat or headpiece is a track essential – but word on the street is that the whole fascinator thing is over.

Yellow and pink is a link Put these two colours together for a bold on-trend statement. No one wants to be outdone by blooming roses in their keepsake photos, so bright yellows and mustards and shades of pink on the pretty side are great race-day choices.

No matter which colours you opt for, outfits should not include bare midriffs or lower back – they’re for a nightclub.

A final piece of not-so-random advice: break in your shoes before the big day. Blisters are even worse than a too-small clutch.

Carole Levy

Headbands are all the rage at this year’s racing

Race day picnic is a fine tradition Having a picnic taps into a rich vein of tradition. It’s the kind of gathering that evokes childhood memories of Sunday drives to the country, stopping by a river and getting out the blanket on which to spread the homemade goodies.

A picnic at the races is also a traditional affair, one that has people of all ages ready to get into the spirit of the day. It’s quite simply the best way for a group of friends to create their home base from which the whole day’s fun and festivities flow.

There are local outlets where you can buy a hamper packed with eat-treats. But if you do want to prepare your own hamper - a way to get exactly what you and your friends like to eat and probably costing less - here are a few ideas to help inspire you: 1. A selection of dips, with parmesan toasts or grilled flatbread to serve, are always a good starter. Smoked salmon, cream cheese, red onion, capers and dill on top of crispy crackers also work well.

2. Cold chicken or ham salads are always welcome – scatter through cherry tomatoes and sliced cucumber at the last minute to avoid sogginess.

3. Sandwiches or wraps never go out of style; try a roast chicken, rocket, dill and mayo combo.

4. Fluffy scones are a quintessential picnic dessert – have pots of strawberry jam and whipped cream ready. Or Lindt Mint Intense chocolate is a decadent match with coffee.

5. Platters with a variety of cheese, quince paste, olives and water crackers are a great finish or anytime snack.
