Maddy’s big day out BARWON Heads’ Maddison Rakic is already counting down the days until she sets foot on the MCG on grand final day. The eight-year-old Geelong fan has been named the round nine nominee for the NAB AFL Auskicker of the Year Award. Maddison, a Grade 2 student at Kardinia International College, has her sights set on becoming the first female AFL player. As part of her nomination, Maddison gets to play at halftime in September’s grand final, takes part in the AFL parade through Melbourne on grand final eve, and if she is named Auskicker of the Year, she will be personally mentored by her hero, Joel Selwood, for 12 months.
Maddison has already been in the spotlight after she was interviewed on national television by Barwon Heads resident and Channel 10 reporter, Mark Howard.

Opposition calls on State Government to provide funding for Portarlington school
BY DAVID FINLAYSON A LONG-AWAITED upgrade of Portarlington Primary School could be halted indefinitely because the State Government will not fund the drawing up of ‘schematic’ plans, the opposition claims. The plans are an essential next step in a government funding application process for the ageing school buildings to be upgraded to the standard of other schools in the region, and community consultation and planning for the school upgrade began some years ago. Labor Member for Western Victoria, Gayle Tierney, told state parliament last week there was “shock and real disappointment in the community” when the recent state budget made no allocation to continue planning for the school’s upgrade.

Tierney said the school had already completed a masterplan and a large amount of work and consultation had been undertaken. “Portarlington Primary School has a good number of enrolments, great teachers, a caring and driven principal, committee and engaged parents and great kids,” Tierney said. “But what it doesn’t have is the $60,000 needed for the schematic stage of the upgrade.” Tierney called on education minister, Martin Dixon, to commit funding or risk the school losing the planned upgrade altogether. “The stepping stones for school funding require an allocation of sequential state budgets. Failure for this to occur will stop the redevelopment,” Tierney said. Tierney said Labor had made a pre-election
promise of $6million for the redevelopment of the school, and that the incumbent State Government needs to listen to the community. Liberal Member for Western Victoria Region, David Koch, said his office was unaware of any official Labor policy funding announcements for the upgrade of the school. “A lot of projects are in the early stages of developing funding applications, such as at Portarlington,” Koch said. “The government has had to put some projects on hold; but those projects are not necessarily lost. “This [the Portarlington application] is something that will continue to be reviewed.” Portarlington Primary School principal, Denise Simons, said the schematic designs were essential if
the school was to lodge a funding bid by November, for consideration as part of the 2012 state budget. “The school upgrade is necessary to allow improved teacher and student interaction and the better sharing of facilities across the school,” Simons said. She said the old-style classroom design was restrictive and limited the use of computers and some teaching methods. She said the ageing school buildings were also costly to maintain. “We have probably lost enrolments due to the fact the school needs rebuilding,” Simons said. “The school community is disappointed that the government doesn’t have funds to take this to the next stage when everyone understands the need at Portarlington.”

MAYOR’S COLUMN Queenscliff-Lonsdale Lions Club Golden Anniversary
On Saturday evening my wife Beth and I attended the dinner to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Queenscliff-Lonsdale Lions Club, which was held at Point Lonsdale Bowls Club. This club is an integral part of our community and council acknowledges with gratitude that in the past seven years they have donated more than $75,000 to local charities, welfare and community groups. They also supported Australia Day celebrations and raised over $2,300 for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal, ‘Kids Busking for the Kids’ event. The evening was a great opportunity to thank the club for all their work and acknowledge the 50 years of work contributing to our community.
weeks as the dredged material is being stock piled and dried before being moved off site. The new configuration will greatly improve the operation and safety of the ramp.
Clearance cutting around power lines
For many years the members of the local senior citizens club have endured hot summers and cold winters in their club rooms at Jordan Reserve. It is with pleasure that council announce that the work on the installation of split-system airconditioning has been completed. The project was completed on time and on budget at a total cost of $8,000. Council is sure that this cost effective and efficient system will greatly improve the amenity of the senior citizens building to the benefit of all members and visitors.
The annual clearance of vegetation from around electricity lines is about to commence. New regulations have been introduced regarding electric line clearance. They are called Electrical Safety (Electric Line Clearance) Regulations 2010 and have more stringent requirements. As a result the number of trees requiring attention this year has increased from previous years. Council is working with the Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) and Energy Safe Victoria to develop different models for meeting the regulations. Advice from the MAV has been received that Energy Safe Victoria are conducting pilot programs with some councils to develop the risk assessment framework and MAV recommend that in the interim electric line clearance needs to be managed appropriately – i.e. meeting the 2005 regulations as an absolute minimum. Until a final position is obtained from Energy Safe Victoria or further advice is received from the MAV, council will be conducting minimal impact clearances.

The ramp was reopened for public use on the weekend of the 28-29 May 2011. The new pontoons have been installed and the associated dredging work is being completed along with some other minor works that will not restrict access to the ramp. There will still be some restricted areas in the car park for the next 4-6
planning that has been undertaken to update the capacity assessment report completed in 2010. The change management funding (of $1500 per location) is offered to councils and non-local government cluster managers for the services they directly manage or community based services with a standard licence within their municipality. After consultation with the Queenscliff Kindergarten Committee of Management, a funding proposal that aims to develop a long term strategic plan for Queenscliff Kindergarten Incorporated (QKI) will be presented to DEECD. This plan will provide a basis and framework for QKI committee and staff to work towards and underpin the future direction of QKI. The plan would investigate and design of the optimal management model for QKI. This includes a detailed risk assessment related to the facility, licensee and committee of management, funding of service, relationship with early childhood services and BoQ council, review of policies and administration.

It’s warm in the house BY ELEANOR WOODS YOU WON’T have to wear a jacket, scarf or hat at Portarlington Neighbourhood House any longer – the community meeting and education centre is celebrating getting heating and cooling. After years of holding courses in cold – or hot – conditions, the house will be able to provide comfort all year around. Neighbourhood house co-ordinator, Julie Hyslop, said the heating and cooling was warmly
welcomed by the house, and will provide a major boost. “I can’t believe we got through last winter without heating,” she said. The heating and cooling cost $14,000 – with local community groups working together to raise funds, as well as the City of Greater Geelong contributing to the project. “I just want to thank everyone who supported the house during the cold times,” Hyslop said. “We look forward to welcoming people under
these new, warmer conditions.” City of Great Geelong councillor, John Doull, said the City was only too happy to help out local community groups when the need arose. “Council has contributed to the upgrade since Portarlington Neighbourhood House moved in to the building two years ago and this has included recent installation of heating and cooling,” he said. “We support 12 neighbourhood houses around Geelong with $12,500 funding per year.”

Kids catered for A SITE has been chosen for the new $10 million Ocean Grove Integrated Children’s Centre. City of Greater Geelong has confirmed the centre will be built at Shell Road Reserve, with works starting next year. The original plan was to attach the centre to the existing Surfside Kindergarten, but due to site constraints the preferred site is now between the Bellarine Aquatic and Sports Centre and Surfside Kindergarten. The total project cost is expected to be $9,571,000 and will boast a kindergarten, playgroups, maternal and child health, long day care, occasional day care, family support, toy library and early intervention facilities as well as a community space. The State Government has already allocated $1 million and the CoGG allocated $3 million as part of its 2011-12 budget. Councillor Jan Farrell, who represents Ocean Grove, said she was delighted to see planning progressing on the new centre. “Ocean Grove is a designated growth area. Our children’s services are bursting at the seams - we can barely cope with the demand as it is,” she said. “This new centre will ensure we can provide high quality and accessible services and support to the growing number of children in Ocean Grove.” “This is one of the first centres of its kind to be built in the region. It will bring a wide range of children’s services under the one roof at convenient location, close to schools, sports facilities and residents.” “I’m pleased that we can now appoint an architect and get to work on this much needed community facility.” Councillor Kylie Fisher, who holds the Community Development portfolio, said the new centre would be a “one-stop-shop, making it much easier for families to access all the children’s services they need.”

Bellarine research on the world stage BY DAVID FINLAYSON A DEAKIN University research paper focusing largely on the Bellarine Peninsula will be presented to the third international conference on climate change in Brazil in July. The paper finds a heavy reliance on road transport in the Geelong and Bellarine region and the scattered nature of small-town urban development could potentially be a significant contributor to climate change in the longer-term. The paper looks at links between urban development, transportation and climate change to help develop systems for assessing how future urban planning decisions will impact on the environment. Deakin’s school of architecture and building Dr Simone Leao said cultural as well as urban design change was needed to ensure that future urban development avoided current problems. “Only about one per cent of people in the extended
Geelong region use public transport to travel to work. With the right planning this could be increased to 10 per cent,” Leao said. “On average, 65 per cent of the employed workers in the region use private car as a driver to go to work; 4.3 percent go by private car as a passenger; only one per cent use public transport; and 3.8 per cent walk or cycle to work.” She said the scattered nature of township developments on the Bellarine and along the Surf Coast made public transport difficult. “Smaller towns generally don’t have employment opportunities and so people have to commute to work. Most of these towns have limited public transport so have to use cars to get around,” Leao said. She said a further research paper would examine public transport in more detail, which would lead to the creation of scenarios that would involve the balance between housing, jobs and public transport
and the impacts of various permutations would have on the environment. The Committee for Bellarine is one of a number of local community organisations and government bodies watching or supporting the research work. Committee executive director, Tom O’Connor, said his organisation was fully supportive of the research and had signed memorandums of understanding with Deakin University to assist with its work within the Bellarine community. “The Committee for Bellarine has strong environmental objectives. This research on urban ecology and sustainability within our community is something that needs to be encouraged,” O’Connor said. The research paper jointly authored by Dr Leao and Prof Hisham Elkadi for the Victorian Laboratory for Urban Ecologies (VALUE) at Deakin University will be published to coincide with the July 21-22 conference in Rio De Janeiro.

Ocean Grove’s Conan Kuzniarski recently won a signed surfboard as part of a Telstra competition. Kuzniarski purchased a new mobile phone at the Telstra Waurn Ponds store, which automatically entered him into the draw for the board – which was signed by the competitors at this year’s Rip Curl Pro. “This is a terrific prize and I’m just rapt to have won a board signed by so many legendary surfers,” Kuzniarski said. “I surf locally, but this board won’t be going into the water. Instead it will be on display in my living room.”

Sports complex a step closer BY DAVID FINLAYSON A NEW sports precinct masterplan for Drysdale and Clifton Springs was adopted last week by the City of Greater Geelong. The plan sets out a staged development, initially of a premier level playing field with lights, multiuse rectangular playing fields with lights, a pavilion, car park and landscaping. Further stages will include extra playing fields, training nets, water storage, increased road access
and car parking, multi-use courts, and athletics field and park and picnic areas. The plan focuses on 45 hectares of vacant council land at the Portarlington and Grubb Road intersection. Cheetham ward councillor, Rod Macdonald, said the plan was the result of extensive community consultation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is terrific. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a plan that is great for the sporting future of the area and will ensure that a broad range of sporting activities are accommodated,â&#x20AC;? he
said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now that the masterplan is complete we can begin investigating funding options for implementation.â&#x20AC;? Macdonald said preliminary informal discussions with state government representatives had been encouraging. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They recognise the need on the Bellarine Peninsula for facilities. This is a long-term plan that will be implemented over a period of years as funding is available,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The beauty is the plan is flexible in design so
that it can be modified to suit whatever sport needs to be accommodated.â&#x20AC;? Funding of about $2million will be needed to complete stage one, Macdonald said. He said funds were available immediately to start more detailed design work on stage one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A high priority is to find a playing surface for the SpringDale soccer club,â&#x20AC;? he said. Macdonald said he anticipated that the football and cricket clubs would retain their headquarters at the existing recreation reserve.
Local business leads the way BY DAVID FINLAYSON A SWITCH from solvent-based to environmentally-friendly water-borne spray paints by a Drysdale car panel repair business is a first for the region. Drysdale and District Accident Towing proprietor, Neil Yoemans, said the $100,000 investment to convert his business to water-borne paint had health and environmental benefits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My staff are no longer breathing in solventbased fumes or risking getting it on their skin, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve reduced solvent volatile organic compound emissions to the environment by 70 per cent,â&#x20AC;? Yoemans said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Europe and North America water-borne car paints are well established, but Australia has been slower to change. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had to buy new equipment such
as mixing machines, spray guns and fly staff to Sydney for training. But the benefits will outweight the costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The spray guns alone cost $6,000.â&#x20AC;? Yoemans said he had been investigating the switch for almost two years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As an industry we have a moral obligation to adopt measures to protect the environment and our staff, if they are available,â&#x20AC;? he said. The business is environment-conscious in other ways and recycles the plastic, masking tape and other materials that might previously have been discarded in general waste. Yoemans said the nature of water-borne paint meant less paint was needed, which over time also brought financial benefits. He predicated that other panel repair businesses would move to water-borne paints as the environmental benefits were better
recognised. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are also other advantages, especially with metallic which comes up extremely well in water-borne paint,â&#x20AC;? Yoemans said. Geelongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Darbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Paints general manager, Andrew Blackwell, who supplies paint to Yoemans said the Drysdale business was leading the move to the more environmentally friendly products. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I predict others will follow as there has been increasing interest from the industry,â&#x20AC;? Blackwell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Europe water-borne paint has been mandatory since 1991 because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better for the environment. Australia hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gone down that track yet.â&#x20AC;? Foreman painter David Lindsay environment-friendly water-borne paint.

Local partnership praised The Celtic BY ELEANOR WOODS TORQUAY-BASED SEDA surfing school and Surfing Victoria have been praised for their partnership. The surfing wing of Sports Education and Development Australia (SEDA) and the state’s peak surfing industry body have worked hand-in-hand on projects to give students insight into a range of onthe-job challenges. SEDA programme co-ordinator, Stui Hawken, and Surfing Victoria’s deputy director, Elley Harrison, accepted the Partner Achievement Award from the Minister of Education, Martin Dixon, at the Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning Achievement Awards in Melbourne earlier this month. “It’s a real honour to be acknowledged like this,” Hawken said. “The work that we do with Surfing Vic gives the kids opportunities at the front and centre of the surfing industry. “There were a lot of very worthy nominees for this award, so to be chosen is great recognition of what we do.” Together, Surfing Victoria and SEDA, which share a home at Surf City Plaza, Torquay, have created a surfing-based sports development programme which gives students the unique opportunity to work in the Australian surfing industry. Students help manage events, network with industry leaders, run surfing clinics and camps and help out at the Rip Curl Pro. They also gain internationally recognised surf coaching and judging qualifications. Student Ethan Harbison, 17, agreed the partnership was an excellent asset.
SIZES GENERALLY AVAILABLE 1.60 X 2.30 2.00 X 2.90 2.40 X 3.30
“It’s such good experience for us,” he said. “The partnership’s worked out really well. “To get a feel for what it is actually like in the
industry we are working to be a part of is great. We get to be a part of big surfi ng events and experience what it’s like from behind the scenes.”

THE COUNTDOWN is on to when the National Celtic Festival takes over Portarlington on the June 10-13 long weekend. In its ninth year, the festival is the largest and most diverse celebration of Celtic music and culture in the southern hemisphere. Again organisers have gathered a talented lineup of acts that are sure to impress the thousands who flock to this family-friendly event. One of the unusual inclusions this year is ‘The Coming of the Quaich’. This traditional Scottish communal drinking vessel, used to share a “wee dram” among friends, will make a special stop at Portarlington as part of its two-year world tour. Those who partake of the Quaich are invited to sign a logbook and post a photo online. The international musical line-up this year includes arguably the world’s most popular Celtic-folk band, Solas, performing in Australia exclusively at the festival. Other international acts include the Scottish fiddle of Hanneke Cassel Trio; edgy contemporary singer-songwriter Eleanor McEvoy; Scottish Gaelic songstress Christine Primrose; and two cultures unite with hot young duo Sophie and Fiachra. Australian artists will be well-represented by festival favourites and fresh new faces, including The Bushwackers, Sunas, Maria Forde, McAlpine’s Fusiliers, Jimmy Moore and Claddagh, Catherine Fraser and Friends and many more.

Playground trees to get the chop BY DAVID FINLAYSON THE BOROUGH of Queenscliffe is pressing ahead with plans to remove three moonah trees from a playground opposite the Point Lonsdale shopping strip on safety grounds, despite objections from local residents. An application has been lodged with the Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE) to remove the trees.
Borough spokesman, Rob Byrne, said the council had no choice as the trees had been found by an arborist to be potentially dangerous to playground users. “As soon as we are aware of a problem we are obliged to act on public safety grounds,” Byrne said. He said most of the 20 or so trees in the immediate area would remain as they were not considered safety risks.
“No decision has been made on the replacement of the trees, although it is often a condition of approval to remove trees that others be planted,” Byrne said. The trees were unlikely to have grown naturally in such a cliff face location and were probably planted many decades ago, Byrne said. A DSE spokeswoman last week said the Borough had yet to formally lodge all documents seeking approval for the tree removals, but DSE
would process the application within 28 days of receipt. A request to the Borough by the Point Lonsdale Civic Association for a fence to be built between the playground and the adjoining Point Lonsdale Road for child safety had yet to be considered. “The request is being examined as part of a wider consultation process for the development of a masterplan for the area,” Byrne said. The PLCA is part of that process.
Seniors lead the way BY NATHAN HALE THE BELLARINE branch of National Seniors Australia and Drysdale Senior Citizens raised more than $1,000 from its Biggest Morning Tea held recently. An overwhelming response saw 55 people attend the morning and through a host of door prizes, a raffle and other fundraising activities the mark of $1,000 was reached – which was double the target set. Jackie Clayton, president of NSA, Bellarine Peninsula Branch, was the official host and said the day was a great success and raised muchneeded funds for the Cancer Council. “Our special thanks must go to the fantastic donors of door prizes and raffle prizes,” she said. “Of course no event of this size can be held without the wonderful help of volunteers. Their assistance is very much appreciated.
“Veema Moontapah, community development officer from the City of Greater Geelong came along at very short notice to open the proceedings. “Not only did she do the opening, but assisted with serving food and drinks as well! “The outstanding point of the event and the amount raised is that 90 per cent of the volunteers were over 70 and the majority of our guests were pensioners. “Even though times are financially difficult at the moment, they were happy to contribute to this very worthy cause.” NSA is an organisation which works towards a better future and fairer treatment of seniors. Bellarine Peninsula Branch was formed in 2006 to accommodate the growing population on the Peninsula and covers the area from Newcomb to St Leonards. The morning tea included raffles, with three of the lucky winners pictured.

Tesltra ‘workshops’ technology with seniors Telstra is giving local community groups in the Geelong and the Surf Coast region the opportunity to teach seniors the benefits of modern-day communication technology such as mobile phones and computers through the Telstra Connected Seniors program of grants and training. No-one is ever too old to learn about technology and seniors are always surprised at just how much they can easily do online, like banking, shopping, finding out about new interests and joining social groups. We understand the feelings of apprehension around learning how to use new technology. Thankfully, mobile phones and computers can be simple to use and best still, they open up a whole new world of communication. The workshops are conducted by experts and peers in a friendly and comfortable environment where seniors
learn specifically tailored skills at their own pace. Telstra offers grants of up to $5,000 for local community organisations and up to $50,000 for state and territory organisations to run these workshops. In addition, the program runs events throughout the country and offers web-based tutorials on technology basics.

Green energy in focus BY DAVID FINLAYSON A PRESENATION on how Australia can make the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy will be delivered at Drysdale’s SpringDale Neighbourhood Centre on Saturday. Independent research group Beyond Zero Emissions will deliver the presentation and has produced a fully costed plan for transition to renewable energy. The plan won a national Banksia Environment Award. “Faced with the mounting evidence of the dangerous effects of climate change in Australia
and overseas, we have three options: despair, denial or action,” BZE’s director, James Bramwell, said. “We believe that people want information about how Australia can act in a timely and effective way to arrest climate change”. Neighbourhood centre co-ordinator Anne Brackley said the presentation fitted comfortably with the centre’s goal of ‘going greener’. “The presentation will be about visionary stuff. The centre supports strategies to promote a healthier and greener lifestyle and this fits nicely in our programme of community events,” she said.
Enjoying a laugh while knitting up a storm were (from left) Monica, Tara and Alice.
Brackley said the presentation was timed to follow on from the Drysdale Harvest Basket group’s monthly vegetable swap morning at the SpringDale Hall, which was attracting increasing interest and new members to the centre. “It was as a direct result of the interest in the harvest basket group and its work that the idea for the Beyond Zero Emissions presentation came about,” Brackley said. The harvest basket group swap begins at 9am, with the Beyond Zero Emissions presentation between 11am-1pm at the centre, 17 High Street, Drysdale, phone 5253 1960 for details.

Drysdale’s big storytime BY NATHAN HALE
Knitting has generations in stitches
CHILDREN at Drysdale Library were part of more than 170,000 youngsters nationwide who sat down for National Simultaneous Storytime last week. City of Greater Geelong councillor, Rod Macdonald, read Feathers for Phoebe, the book chosen to be read simultaneously throughout Australia as part of Australian Library and Information Week. The event is Australia’s biggest single storytelling initiative, and is celebrated in schools, public libraries, kindergartens, childcare centres and bookshops. Feathers for Phoebe was selected as this year’s book because of its themes of self-acceptance and learning that appearances aren’t everything – a very important lesson for children in today’s body-image conscious society. “Wow, to be chosen for National Simultaneous Storytime is such an incredible honour!” said author, Rod Clement. “The fact that all over Australia kids will be reading Feathers for Phoebe at the same time makes my head spin.”
CLICKETY Clicks is on again this winter at the Queenscliff Neighbourhood House. The popular knitting group meets every Sunday afternoon at the picturesque house, with its views out over the bay. No matter what your age or skill level, you will find a warm welcome, have the opportunity to meet new people and improve your knitting skills. The group meets from 3pm-5pm at the house, with the cost just a gold coin donation. For more information, phone the Queenscliff Neighbourhood House on 5258 3367.
Councillor Rod Macdonald kept the children enthralled with his reading of Feathers for Phoebe.

Top team lead Jan Juc INFLATABLE Rescue Boat (IRB) wonder-duo Brian and Lisa Happ are using their skills to lead the Jan Juc IRB team this season. The Jan Juc couple is renowned for their contribution to the sport and hope to see their fledgling team go from strength to strength as IRB continues to grow in the region. Brian and Lisa have each won many medals at state, national and international levels and have been instrumental in the development of IRB racing in Australia. “IRB is fantastic. It’s one of the only elements of surf life saving that incorporates both patrolling and competition so the skills and equipment used are very practical,” Lisa said. Lisa helped grow women’s participation in IRB and was extremely successful in her own competitive IRB career, winning Australian and world titles. “It used to be a hugely male-dominated competition. People have learned what a great sport it is to be part of – no matter what age, sex or skill level you are,” she said. “It’s amazing to see it growing so much every year.” IRB involves tube rescue, mass rescue, teams
Warralily launches the Coast
rescue and single rescue events and sees team’s brave large swells in inflatable crafts during actionpacked rescue challenges. Both Brian and Lisa coach and officiate IRB events and have turned their passion into helping the next generation of IRB competitors be the best they can be. “Working with Jan Juc has been fantastic. We are
really into helping others pursue their IRB,” Lisa said. “The ideal outcome this year would be for the team to make an event final. We’d be so happy. “What I love about IRB is it involves any level of sportsmanship. You don’t have to be the best runner or the strongest swimmer, so anyone can do it. And it’s fun! It’s such an adrenaline rush.”

WARRALILY Coast launched on Saturday, with eager buyers quick to snap up the highly sought-after blocks. Strong interest surrounded the release of home sites at Warralily Coast, confirming the ongoing desire of people to live close to the coast. The launch of Warralily Coast introduced muchneeded land to the local market with the first release consisting of 31 home sites ranging from 370 to 568 square metres.
Recent statistics released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) confirms the popularity of Geelong’s coastal land with population figures revealing that the Surf Coast continues to experience the fastest growth in the region. Warralily general manager, Mark Whinfield, said the location of Warralily Coast has been paramount in sparking buyer interest in the development. “Buyers are looking for land in close proximity to the beach that is still affordable.”

Council decision shows it is out of touch
of touch with ratepayers council is. How galling that our rates pay for this incompetence and contempt!
Dear Editor,
Bob Wilson Jan Juc
Can you believe it? Surf Coast Shire Council having treated Jan Juc ratepayers with contempt with their footpath â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;planâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; over the past 18 months, are now going to appeal the decision by VCAT, and proceed to the Supreme Court. Relations between council and its ratepayers must now be at an all time low. Some of councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;formâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; includes: â&#x20AC;˘ The Industrial Estate as the ugly entrance to Torquay and the Great Ocean Road. (slipped through council before anyone knew) â&#x20AC;˘ Attempting to develop Spring Creek, until thousands of residents protested â&#x20AC;˘ Not listening to massive objections to their footpath â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;strategyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and pushing ahead regardless. To now challenge the VCAT decision is a classic example of council not accepting the umpireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision, and treating ratepayers with complete arrogance, again. Shire CEO Mark Davies says legal advice is that VCAT acted outside its powers and that the VCAT decision could have implications for other councils. So, why use ratepayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money to challenge the decision at the Supreme Court. Surely if other councils are troubled by this decision, let them fight it. More â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;spinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to rationalise a spiteful and meanminded decision which again emphasises how out
Funding agreements hard to fathom Dear Editor, It is not surprising that the former State Government and the Surf Coast Shire resisted giving the community copies of the funding agreements (for $1.27million and $200,000 respectively) relating to McAdam Park (Geelong Advertiser, May 7). Not only is it highly unusual for governments to fund the purchase of land by third parties, the economic terms of these grants are astounding â&#x20AC;&#x201C; almost half of the cost of prime real estate in the Barrabool Hills paid for, with the prospect of substantial capital appreciation over a 10-year period and no obligations beyond 10 years for Motorcycling Australia, the recipient, to do anything at all for the local motorcycle clubs. No wonder Surf Coast Shire insisted their agreement be discussed behind closed doors at a council meeting. Mayor Dean Webster provided only part of the story by stating (Geelong Advertiser, May 7) â&#x20AC;&#x153;If they (Motorcycling Australia) decided to sell the land, then we get our money back and so would the
Governmentâ&#x20AC;?. Why didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t he qualify that by noting it applies only for another 9.5 years (8.5 years for state government)? Subsequently the CEO of Surf Coast Shire (Surf Coast Times, May 17) conceded the term of the agreement is 9.5 years but stated he was satisfied with the risk of the land being sold at the conclusion of the agreement given Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;excellent working relationshipâ&#x20AC;? with Motorcycling Australia. Nor is there any obligation in the agreement, as claimed by the CEO (Surf Coast Times, May 17) to establish infrastructure during the 10-year term. Wherever that came from, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not in the agreement (see the agreement at www.brpg.com.au) The purpose of legal agreements is to put beyond doubt the obligations of parties in the future. Is Surf Coast Shire generally inclined to rely on present day â&#x20AC;&#x153;excellent working relationshipsâ&#x20AC;? to bind the conduct of parties in the future? This is naive and commercially unacceptable. Why did they bother entering into an agreement at all? The location of McAdam Park is inappropriate given its noise, environmental impact and impact on local residents. Issues relating to planning are bogged down in the courts. It is now also clear the current set up does not guarantee any motorcross facility in the region for longer than 9.5 years. It makes the Avalon Airport proposed motor sports hub option look pretty good to me.

A busy life in retirement BY DAVID FINLAYSON

HYGEIA
Charlie Christiaans plays one of his hand-made guitars.
surfcoasttimes.com.au
FOR SOMEONE who claims to be retired, Charlie Christiaans is a remarkably busy man. His life-long love for working with wood has taken him to some interesting places and is the reason he talks so passionately about his role as president of the community-based group Bellarine Woodworkers Inc. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a carpenter and joiner by trade so working with my hands comes naturally,â&#x20AC;? Christiaans said recently. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I used to do wood turning but the dust got into my lungs so I started making jewellery boxes and guitars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It started as a joke in 1989 that I made my first guitar, but now I make them two at a time. It takes between 80 and 100 hours for each guitar, and if I work that out it probably means Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m working for $3 an hour.â&#x20AC;? Christiaans works with local and imported woods and appreciates the different tones and textures that each type of wood can bring to an instrument. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just received a shipment of ebony from India, but is equally at home cutting up and shaping native hardwoods after theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been used in cement pours or as fence posts. Christiaans has been part of a number of musical groups around the region and currently plays with a Dutch group, Bay City Clog Dances, which plays at nursing homes in Geelong and Werribee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been playing since I was 14 years old and I
have some 400 to 500 songs that I can play off the top of my head. I like â&#x20AC;&#x2122;50s and â&#x20AC;&#x2122;60s rock and country and western, such as Elivs and Buddy Holly,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was part of the first group from Geelong on TV when it came to Australia on a show called Stairway to the Stars. I was a member of the Calypso Rockers Band.â&#x20AC;? In his past Christiaans has had run a martial arts school, teaching Karate and Jujitsu. He also got involved in barefoot water skiing, coaching his son in national-level competition. A cabinet in his lounge is full of the trophies gathered over the years when he bred and showed German Shepards. The Bellarine Woodworkers Inc. divides into groups that specialise in different types of woodwork, such as wood turning, making boxes, toys and scroll-sawing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of the work produced is just fantastic. For example, there are wooden trucks and trains that take 500 or 600 hours to make,â&#x20AC;? he said. The club meets twice a month and encourages new members. The club is developing its own fully equipped workshop adjacent to the Drysdale railway station and plans an official launch of its new facilities in August. Bellarine Woodworkers Inc. secretary Martin Horevoorts can be contacted on 5250 3929 for details about the club.

Whale watching season under way THE 2011 season for Southern Right whales has commenced and the majestic creatures can now be spotted gliding along the southern coastline. Southern Right whales migrate from sub-Antarctic waters, where they feed during the summer months, to the southern coastline of Australia to breed during winter. Senior natural resource management officer, Mandy Watson, from the Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE) monitors the whales. “They come here to give birth and raise their calves, presumably because it's warmer and there is more shelter for them,” said Watson.
“They also come into the shallower waters to protect their calves from predators such as Killer Whales and sharks.” There have been two reported sightings so far this season, the first on May 10 at Logans Beach in Warrnambool and the second in Ocean Grove on May 16. Simon Branigan, Victorian National Parks Association marine and coastal project officer, said there would be many opportunities to view the whales from the Surf Coast as well over the coming months. “Driving along the Great Ocean Road is a perfect way to see whales in their natural habitat, a very
special experience,” Branigan said. Split Point Lookout in Aireys Inlet, built by the Great Ocean Road Coast Committee in 2009, features a special cliff-edge design, allowing for an unhindered view of the passing whales. The platform is just one example of a number of spectacular viewing locations in the region. “There are a number of lookouts and viewing platforms for drivers to safely pull over and observe the whales,” Branigan said. Whale watchers can identify Southern Right whales by their distinguishing features. Unlike other whale species they don’t have a dorsal fin; they have short square pectoral fins and a
distinctive v-shaped blow rather than a single plume. They are large fat whales with a rounded heads, strongly arched mouth lines and can grow up to 18 metres long. The whales are black in colour with some irregular white patches on their underside and white growths called callosities on their heads, which people often mistake for barnacles. Sightings of Southern Right whales can be reported by emailing mandy.watson@dse.vic.gov. au or phoning 5561 9961 or 0408 302 421. This column is brought to you by the Great Ocean Road Coast Committee.
Support for local film night

GEELONG captain Cameron Ling and Jan Juc professional surfer, Jack Perry, are throwing their support behind the Surf Coast Energy Group’s film night this Friday. The film, Addicted to Plastic, will be screened at 7pm this Friday at Surf World as part of the group’s film season. The film is being screened in the hope that it will inspire people in the community to re-think their use of plastic. Already, the environmental wave-makers have inspired action on global issues through their film screenings. Monica Butler and a group of like-minded others founded Plastic Bag Free Torquay after watching a SCEG film, Message in the Waves, last year. “The film showed how much of our rubbish winds up in the ocean and gathers in certain areas. It was life changing to realise the effect we are having on the environment, plants and animals,” Butler said.
“I was so inspired I went to one of the places where rubbish accumulates because of the tides, a beach in Hawaii, and spent hours picking up rubbish. “Plastic is a real problem. “We love our environment here in Torquay but people need to change their attitudes toward the use of plastic if we are to sustain this place. “It’s about starting of small. If we can cut out plastic bags then we are on the way. “I haven’t willingly gained a plastic bag in years.” Surf Coast Energy Group’s Cherie Mordue encouraged Surf Coast residents to come and see Addicted to Plastic, which looks at the “rise and demise of a modern miracle”. “For those of us that are conscious of the life of plastic, I think this will still amaze. The amount of plankton-sized plastic particles in our oceans is amazing.” For more information on the Surf Coast Energy Group, visit www.sceg.org.au
COUNCIL TO APPEAL VCAT DECISION ON PRECEDENT FEARS Surf Coast Shire will appeal a VCAT decision to quash a special charge scheme in Jan Juc because of concerns the decision breaches legislation and might set a Victorian legal precedent. While Council has not decided on the future of any pathway construction in Jan Juc, the appeal through the Supreme Court seeks to prevent a legal precedent being set that could affect all Victorian Councils. VCAT set aside the Jan Juc pathway special charge scheme on the basis that some of the properties included in the scheme to fund footpaths in Jan Juc would not receive a special benefit. Legal advice indicates that VCAT has acted outside its powers as the Local Government Act 1989 does not allow a special charge scheme to be quashed on these grounds. VCAT decisions can only be appealed to the Supreme Court in Victoria if they are believed to be wrong at law. Under Victorian law, VCAT only has the power to set aside the decision on the basis that the distribution of charges is unreasonable, that the proposed works conflict with relevant policies or the local planning scheme, or the proposed works are unnecessary, unreasonable, excessive, insufficient, unsuitable or costly. The VCAT decision determined that the proposed Jan Juc Pathway special charge scheme did not breach any of these criteria. Under Victorian legislation, VCAT did have the option of excluding specific properties from the 1862 initially earmarked to pay the charge if it did not believe these properties would receive a special benefit; rather than setting aside the whole scheme. Council’s CEO, Mark Davies, said the decision to appeal did not mean Council has decided to proceed with the construction of pathways in Jan Juc. “Council will not make any decision on the construction of pathways in Jan Juc until the Supreme Court has determined the outcome of this appeal,” Mr Davies said. “This appeal is based on the legal implications of VCAT’s decision, which could have significant impacts on Councils throughout Victoria. “VCAT does have the ability to exempt individual properties from paying a special charge if it believes the works do not provide a special benefit to that property; but an entire scheme cannot be struck out on this basis. “Council’s legal fees for the appeal have been capped at $5,000.” Mr Davies said Councils across the state use Special Charge Schemes to help fund infrastructure projects which provide special benefit to particular properties; rather than asking every rate payer in the municipality to fund them. www.surfcoast.vic.gov.au surfcoasttimes.com.au

What is Advance Care Planning? IF YOU want to have a say in your future medical care, Advance Care Planning (ACP) is something you should be considering; think of it as a living will. The aim of Advance Care Planning is to keep your ‘voice’ heard so people know what is important to you, even when you are too sick to speak for yourself. ACP is a process where individuals – in discussion with healthcare providers, family members and important others – make decisions about future healthcare, should circumstances arise that they become incapable of participating in medical treatment decisions for themselves. ACP provides a uniform approach to documenting your future medical preferences and encourages the appointment of a Medical Enduring Power of Attorney to act as an advocate in such circumstances. Barwon Health provides a free ACP service through the Respecting Patient Choices® programme. Individuals have cited the following reasons for participating in ACP: • I do not want to be kept alive when there is little hope of recovery • My husband had completed the process before he died and I found the Advance Care Plan of immense help at the time for my family and me • I wanted to have some control over that part of my life • With family living interstate I felt I needed to take action and make some obvious and responsible choices • To maintain quality of life rather than quantity • To prevent suffering • To make decisions while I am able to • Provides peace of mind for self and family • Reduced guilt and burden of decision making for family • So that family is aware of my wishes • It is a sensible thing to do • Fear of being kept alive in a state contrary to my wishes and values
• Do not want life prolonged at my stage of life • Appreciated the opportunity to make choices • Making decisions now makes it easier for family
and doctors. For more information about this free service, please contact the Respecting Patient Choices®
programme on 5226 7006 or search for ‘Advanced Care Planning’ on the Barwon Health website at www.barwonhealth.org.au

Search on for senior of the year PEOPLE throughout the state are being urged to nominate outstanding seniors who make a remarkable difference to their communities for the 2011 Victorian Senior of the Year Awards. Minister for Ageing, David Davis, today invited community members, service organisations and local councils to nominate seniors for an award to honour their selfless contribution to the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These awards give us an opportunity to recognise the tireless volunteer services of older people across Victoria,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. To be eligible for an award, nominees must be over 60 years of age, an Australian citizen, a resident of Victoria and have made an exceptional contribution to their community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The recent floods across Victoria have once again highlighted our strong community spirit, with volunteers banding together to help people affected by flooding,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seniors played a large part in these efforts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and it is important for us to say thank you and celebrate their achievements.â&#x20AC;? There are a number of awards for which seniors can be recognised. The Premierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Award for Victorian Senior of the Year is presented to the individual who has made an outstanding contribution to their local community and Victoria.
Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Senior of the Year was 82-year-old Ted Kitto from Shepparton. He was recognised for his work with older people and childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charities, establishing the Terrific Kids programme that helps young people build confidence, and Heartkids which supports children affected by heart disease. All nominees are also eligible for the Council on the Ageing (COTA) Victoria Senior Achiever Awards. These awards celebrate seniors whose talents, achievements and contributions have significantly benefitted their communities. The Healthy & Active Living Award is presented to a senior who is helping to build an active and healthy community, while the Veteran Community Award is presented to a senior who has made an exceptional contribution to veterans. Davis said in 2011, a new award had been added to recognise the large part seniors play in advancing the benefits of cultural diversity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Promotion of Multiculturalism Award will be presented to a senior who has made a significant contribution to promoting the benefits of cultural diversity in their local community or to the broader community of Victoria,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. The Victorian Senior of the Year
Awards will be presented at a special reception at Government House on September 30, 2011. The ceremony will lead into United

Push ups prove a winner THE INAUGURAL Geelong Push Ups For Charity challenge held earlier this month has been hailed a success. The day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which acted as a fundraiser to help children facing life-threatening medical conditions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; saw 30 people churn out a remarkable total of 1,430 push ups in two rounds of 90 seconds. Event creator, Dale Ringin, from Peak Fitness Challenge, hailed the event a fun day for all involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The event was all about having a fun way to get fit and make a difference by supporting Make-A-Wish Australia,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal was to raise $5,000 and we estimate that we raised $5,172. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the record, our highest female was Belinda Randall with 80 push ups and equal first in the males was Jase Lydom and Matt Squire on 75 push ups.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d especially like to thank all of the participants, donors, businesses and volunteers that helped make the event such a success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the money raised says a lot about our communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest in helping the children, and number of people involved in the day is a reflection of how much people appreciate the importance of being healthy.â&#x20AC;?
Warning on touching flying foxes PEOPLE should not handle flying foxes which may roost in backyard fruit trees, Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chief Health Officer, Dr John Carnie, has warned. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Under no circumstances should people handle flying foxes on their property as some diseases they carry, such as Australian Bat Lyssavirus, are transmissible to humans,â&#x20AC;? Dr Carnie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since 1996, a total of nine Victorian flying foxes have been found carrying the virus. The most recent detection was earlier this month in a flying fox found at Bairnsdale. There was no infectious contact with any humans or pets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Australian Bat Lyssavirus is a rare, but fatal disease which may be transmitted from flying foxes to humans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Domestic pets may also be at risk. The virus is
transmitted through being scratched or bitten by a flying fox. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Although it is known that many flying foxes across Australia carry the virus, instances of transmission to humans are very rare, with only two cases ever having been recorded â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both of which were seen in Queensland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Australian Bat Lyssavirus is detected from time to time in flying foxes in Victoria, but no human cases have ever occurred here. The disease has never occurred in domestic pets in Victoria. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lyssavirus has been found in four species within Australia, including the Grey-headed flying fox.â&#x20AC;? Because Australian Bat Lyssavirus infection is a potentially deadly disease, handling of flying foxes should be avoided at all times.
If anyone encounters a sick or injured flying fox they should not attempt to catch the animal but call the DSE Customer Service Centre on 136 186 for referral to an authorised wildlife carer. If someone is bitten or scratched by a flying fox, they should wash the area with soap and water and on the same day see a medical practitioner for advice. Vaccination is available for people potentially exposed due to flying fox bites or scratches, but it must be given as soon as possible after exposure. Further information can also be obtained from the Communicable Disease Prevention and Control Unit on 1300 651 160. If anyone suspects Lyssavirus disease in a flying fox they may contact the Department of Primary Industries animal disease hotline on 1800 675 888.

Living with migraines BY DAVID FINLAYSON
A THROBBING debilitating migraine strikes Drysdale resident Francene Paton at least every two to three weeks, often sending her to bed in a darkened room for three to four days at a time. All up, Paton spends almost half her life battling migraines. But she is not alone in her family â&#x20AC;&#x201C; her mother, grandmother, younger sister and uncle also suffer from migraines.
Paton got her first migraine when she was just nine years old, and they havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let up since. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are so many theories about the cause,â&#x20AC;? she said recently. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My migraines are mostly hormonal, but not strictly so. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried various diets over the years, and I keep a diary to try to find a pattern. There is no pattern. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried osteopaths and chiropractors. I might find something that seems to work for a while, but then it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m on a medicine called Imigrain, which comes in a tablet or as a nasal spray. I used to use Nurofen Plus, but I felt I was becoming too reliant on it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unlike many people I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the classic vision aura prior to a migraine. My mum gets a numb arm. My sister gets blurry vision or strange colours in her sight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just get a throbbing pain. All headaches lead to migraines for me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes I can push through and continue to work and function. They can last for days at a time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m so lucky that my boss is very understanding, but the time I need to take off work weights heavily on me. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been overlooked for career promotions in some of my jobs as a result.
Paton was married last April and made all sorts of plans to avoid a migraine on her wedding day, or at least to be prepared. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take medications and I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pin my hair too tightly. Luckily I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get one,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been hard to find a GP who has a good understanding of migraines, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been difficult finding support groups. My family is my support group as we can all understand migraines.â&#x20AC;? Her advice to fellow sufferers is to keep a diary record and to seek out a support group. She has found an iPhone application to help record her occurrences which has been produced by Migraine Australia. For more details, visit www.headacheaustralia. org.au
Relay gains momentum THE SURF Coast Relay For Life sprung into action earlier this month with the official launch held at Torquayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Spring Creek Reserve. Organising committee chair, Darrel Brewin, said the event was off to a promising start with seven teams already registered for the event. With six months still to go before the relay is held at Jan Jucâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bob Pettitt Reserve, Brewin is hoping the community will continue to support the initiative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Relay For Life is a fun and worthwhile
thing for people of all ages and abilities to do. It brings local communities together to improve awareness and raise funds to help fight cancer and support those affected,â&#x20AC;? he said. Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s launch provided a pleasant surprise for the first three teams registered in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inaugural event with Torquay Rotary Club presenting each with a $1,000 donation to kickstart their fundraising efforts.

Students meet the challenge SAINT Ignatius College students recently showed their skills off at the 2011 Science and Engineering Challenge at Deakin University. The challenge is an outreach program conducted nationally by the University of Newcastle, and is designed to inspire students to study science and engineering at a senior level. The collective work of the 29 participating students on the day culminated in an exciting win in the southwestern region challenge. Students will now move onto the state level of the Australia-wide challenge later in the year. About 120 students from schools across the region participated in a series of exciting activities designed to demonstrate the varied and practical elements of a career in the science and engineering industries. The Saint Ignatius students were selected on the basis of their interest in science and possible interest in choosing science/engineering courses at University. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They participated in groups of three and four on eight different engineering based challenges: bridge building, suspension cars, electricity challenge, satellite dish, gliders, propellers, building lightweight cars and hover crafts,â&#x20AC;? said Saint Ignatius College development manager, Claire Hewitt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An application of knowledge of engineering to practical problem solving tasks was required and teamwork to finish tasks within the given time frame was essential.â&#x20AC;? Coordinator of the Saint Ignatius teams Science teacher Elise Meehan, explained, â&#x20AC;&#x153;At Saint Ignatius College we feel it is important to undertake programs like this to engage students in a practical way in science and provide a positive experience in engineeringâ&#x20AC;? Saint Ignatius College science co-ordinator, Ian Anderson, was proud of the collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s participation
and results. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Congratulations to the Year 10 students who came first,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Competing against other southwestern Victorian schools during the day, students worked in teams
to complete various activity challenges such as building a buggy that will run across the Martian landscape, a launcher for a glider and a bridge that will hold a heavily laden train. We are extremely proud of their efforts.â&#x20AC;?
Education News in brief A sea of zines at Queenscliff Students from Prep through to Year 6 at Queenscliff Primary School were treated to a zine workshop by Maude Farrugia as part of the Sea of Words Festival. Maude grew up in Queenscliff and attended the school, and made a welcome return to help the children with their magaâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;zinesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. A zine is self-published with original text and images usually produced via a photocopier. The children were free to create their own zine and many joined in the bagde making as well.
Celebration time Bellbrae Primary Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big Mayfair is over and now the school is focusing on its 150-year celebrations. Saturday, August 13 has been pencilled is as the day of celebration â&#x20AC;&#x201C; when the school will mark its 150th anniversary with a host of activities. The school is encouraging as many past pupils as possible to attend the day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which will include the opening of a time capsule. For more information, phone the school on 5261 2660.
Preps in the sand Prep students at Torquayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s St Therese Catholic Primary School have two new sandpits to play in. The new additions to the playground were added during a working bee where teachers and parents of Prep students worked together earlier this month. Apart from the sandpits the surrounding areas were beautified and two planter boxes were added.
Saint Ignatius College students enjoyed success at the recent challenge day.

THE DEBATE about whether there is a bubble in the local housing market and if it has burst fails to take into account the long term performance of the real estate market. Some commentators, often with an air of expectation, who use statistics to suggest an imminent collapse, need to take a longer-term view than what happened in the market last weekend or last month. Like any broad-based market reliant upon the participation of thousands of people each week, it is bound to fluctuate over the short term, but due to most householdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wealth being in housing and the fact that most people only buy and sell infrequently, what really matters is the medium to long term performance. A review of the performance of the market over the past decade indicates that the only time that prices fell significantly was during the Global Financial Crisis. The reasons for the drop of around $70,000 in the median house price then are well known and home owners and investors should be pleased that once local economic conditions improved so, too, did the market. The alternative would not be welcomed by anyone. In the same way as rapid increases in value are unsustainable and ultimately not positive for the economy so, too, are substantial falls. If prices fell strongly and remained low then many home owners and investors would face the scenario of negative equity, increases in mortgagee sales and investors leaving the market. There is no doubt the residential market is different now to what it was last year with lower price growth expected and less transactions undertaken and this presents opportunities for those who are in a position to buy.

This stunning townhouse has an individual floor plan and stylish feel. Boasting three, larger than normal bedrooms with and opulent ensuite to the master and floor to ceiling window and built in robes to the other two. Two large living areas, one on the ground floor and one on the middle, main living zone, two private sun decks, a chefsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; kitchen with state of the art fittings, top of the line Miele products, a fridge cavity to suit the largest model and fully plumbed for an ice maker and an inbuilt bar with reverse cycle air conditioning.

GREAT OCEAN ROAD REAL ESTATE MARATHON 2011 PART OF OUR CONTINUED COMMITMENT TO "OUR BACKYARD" Kenyan James Kipkelwon smashed the course record in winning the seventh Great Ocean Road Real Estate International Marathon from Lorne to Apollo Bay on Sunday 15th May. Kipkelwon, 32, clocked 2hours 27mins 42secs on the 45.2km twisting, hilly trek to break Mark Tucker’s 2010 milestone by more than two minutes. Kenyans snared the first three placings after setting a cracking early pace in overcast, near perfect marathon running conditions. Best placed Australian in the GREAT OCEAN ROAD REAL ESTATE sponsored event was Melbourne’s Magnus Michelsson who battled into fourth place in 2:40:06 after suffering a hamstring strain at the half-way mark. Geelong’s Natalie Mensch, wife of former Geelong footballer David Mensch, won the women’s section in 3:20:17. The event attracted more than 3,500 contestants from 15 countries.

YOUR GUIDE TO BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ON THE SURF COAST & BELLARINE
Flexible family living STYLISH, spacious, affordable family living on the wish list? Looking for a variety choice? With the opening of an inspiring new display centre, local home buyers need not look any further than Metricon. Australia’s leading home builder has opened the doors to three great new display homes – the Lancaster 25, Belize 24 and the Lindeman 28 at the Estuary, Leopold, creating an inspiring showcase of great options for affordable family living. With these stunning designs Metricon has maximised flexible, family living to provide options for everyone. The new Lancaster 25 will immediately impress with its unexpected and yet very practical layout. The clever floorplan includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms and two living zones. Upon entry to the Lancaster you
will catch a glimpse of the magnificent lifestyle on offer. With a direct view from the entry down to the integrated dining, family and kitchen area, visitors enjoy a sense of space and light. This bright and insightful design caters for every family member, but particularly the entertainers, with multiple options for formal and informal, indoor and outdoor gatherings. The Belize is another brilliantly designed home showcased at the Estuary, which is great for a smaller block; light and airy in summer yet cosy in winter. The insightful design is perfect for families with the smart flow allowing for kids to occupy one end of the house and the grown-ups at the other. The final jewel in the Metricon family living crown on display at the Estuary, is the award winning Lindeman. This smart bright and insightful design
fits on a 14-metre wide block and has an abundance of living and entertaining areas designed for the growing family. “The three homes on display present a very distinctive, designer feel within really liveable floor plans that perfectly suit the land allotment dimensions land developers in major estates are selling today,” said Metricon sales and marketing manager, regional west, Simon Lofts. “The Estuary is a fantastic master planned community and one that has already proved a success for Metricon with a number of customer homes already under construction within the Estate.” For more information, drop into the Metricon display centre at Paraffin Drive, Estuary Estate, Leopold; or visit www.metricon.com.au

Surf Coast surfboard maker Ian Chisholm is showcasing quality surf art.
Re-branded Torquay surf shop set to launch this weekend BY ELEANOR WOODS A PASSION for quality, handmade surf art and craft has inspired Torquay surfboard maker Ian Chisholm to expand his boutique surf shop into a gallery space â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and he is kicking the venture off with a one-day exhibition of some of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest specimens of creativity drawn from the sport. Chisholm has glassed his name under the banner of South Coast Surfboards, building high-end boards for serious riders for the past
Oakdeneâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;Ś..come for the food stay for the experience
15 years. Now he is re-branding his Torquay surf shop to be named Hydrophilia, and is stocking not only South Coast Surfboards but an array of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best surf equipment, including Japanese custom made Axxe wetsuits, and highly acclaimed Tyler Surfboards; shaped by Californian Tyler Hatzikian. To celebrate the launch of Hydrophilia, Chisholm has invited the world-class board maker, Hatzikian, along with close to 10 handpicked artists to showcase works at the
2 course
express lunch
event at his Baines Crescent workshop gallery, this Saturday, June 4, from 3pm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Artists, photographers and board makers will be on display, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basically to show the people what we are doing here at the store and to promote quality surf products and art work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We stock hardcore, high-end products from around the world that are really hard to get. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything is handmade, everything is oneoff. Nothing is cheaply manufactured in China; it is all premium product that is designed for
the purpose of surfing.â&#x20AC;? A barbecue and beer will be available on the day, and the doors will be open for anyone keen to get a taste of surfing culture. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about surfing. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about what Hydrophilia is about. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about quality products and quality surf art,â&#x20AC;? Chisholm said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From the outset of my career making surfboards, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always wanted to build the best boards possible. It is time consuming and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a lot of money in it and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real skill but it is a beautiful thing.â&#x20AC;?

This little piggy… NOT ANOTHER Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc I hear you say (or is that me?). Some (if not all) NZ Marlborough producers have had to re-think how they make their Sauvignon Blanc. They are usually renowned for their crispness, pungency, high acid, tropical fruits like gooseberry and passionfruit, herbaceousness/grassy characters, but the re-think has been necessitated as the market is absolutely saturated with labels and more and more cheap examples seemingly downgrading what is regarded as a highly sought-after region. Things aren’t all that bad (yet), and the day will come when there’s a natural re-balance in the market and, as always, the cream will rise to the top as quality always wins. Australian Sauvignon Blanc producers, too, have felt the pinch in a big way. In an effort to stem the NZ tide they have been forced to look for points of difference in order to stand out from the pack and highlight all the good points of our Sauvignon Blancs – which are very different to the upfront pungency of the Marlborough wines. Most notably, many are playing around with oak (rather than just straight stainless steel tank fermentation) and experimenting with a bit of barrel fermentation to add softer, creamy characters in an effort to stand out from the pack. Here are three great new wines from both Australia and NZ to explore further.
Squealing Pig Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2010 ($17) Creamy is the descriptor most used by fans of this wine... and yes, we’re still talking about a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc! Deliberately left on lees in the production process to help gain further aromatic complexity and give more texture to the wine alongside the more accepted and obvious upfront tropical fruit flavours has really paid dividends. Roast pork anyone?

Show celebrates a life in musicals SEASON one of Geelong Performing Arts Centre’s Musical Mornings comes to a close next week as John Bowles returns to GPAC to celebrate his life in the musicals. Audiences will be treated to many of the hit songs from his remarkable catalogue of musicals, including Hello Dolly, Phantom of the Opera, Guys and Dolls and many more. With performances on Wednesday, June 8 and Thursday, June 9, Bowles will be joined by his longtime friend and co-star from Tenterfield Saddler, Michelle Fitzmaurice. Together they will sing up a storm of musical theatre hits and many surprises, from Young Talent Time days through to the hits of his more recent musicals.
Musical Mornings Season Two promises another line-up of peerless performers and great entertainment, beginning in July with Best of Broadway, a colourful new song and dance show with a cast led by John Lidgerwood. Denise Drysdale, one of the best-loved stars of Australian television and radio and currently star of Network 10’s The Circle, will headline a show in August, while in October Barry Crocker will lead us through AB Paterson’s book of Old Bush Songs in Banjo. There is free morning tea available before the show, along with pre-show performers and exhibits in the GPAC foyer. Tickets are available on 5225 1200 or visit www.gpac.org.au
Bannockburn Sauvignon Blanc 2010 ($26) A freaky wine to say the least! So unlike previous vintages of this wine and so unlike Sauvignon Blanc. All I can think of to describe this wine is that it’s not unlike those weird dry whites you see from the Friuli region in the north east of Italy – kind of minerally, flinty, maybe oily, yet fruity but finishes dry. It’s somewhat neutral in a way that you see in some Italian Pinot Grigios, but with a core of textured, complex and interesting flavours? Like I said, its freaky and setting all the sommeliers in Melbourne abuzz with excitement. There’s also 13 per cent riesling blended in.
Taltarni ‘Three Monks’ Vic/Tas Fumé Blanc (Sauvignon Blanc) 2009 ($20) The French influence here is deliberate and well executed, with a portion of this wine maturated in oak adding further complexity to the fresh, spicy aromas and generosity to the mouth-feel and fruit character on the palate, hence they’ve given it the French term ‘Fumé Blanc’. Being a multi-regional blend, the Pyrennees fruit brings fullness and flavour, while the Tasmanian component imparts more restrained crisp acidity, length and mineral elegance on the finish. Good stuff...

IT IS confusing, isn’t it, if you listen to the advice of the medicos, health professional and dietitians that tell us to eat this or eat that. For example, look at how all of us were reaching for the margarine, being steered away from butter. Now research indicates we are probably better off eating the butter. It was W Somerset Maugham who wisely said: “Excess on occasion is exhilarating, it keeps moderation from becoming a habit”. Now that’s an adage I choose to live by. I make sure I have a small amount of chocolate every day – the research is there to back up the ‘good’ that eating some chocolate does for you – it lifts your mood. Historically it has been proven that in tough times sales of chocolates increase, because chocolate provides a small luxury – an affordable treat. I also eat almonds every day and while I do like to generously ‘butter’ my breakfast toast, I don’t cook with butter much at all. I use olive oil, and this is definitely one ingredient that you just cannot have too much of. I read with interest recently that scientists have discovered a compound in olive oil that is similar to ibuprofen – an anti-inflammatory painkiller. It has long been accepted that the Mediterranean-style
MODERATION IN EVERYTHING, EXCEPT…
diet promotes long life – with its emphasis on oil-rich dishes (and lots of vegetables, fish). The research suggests that ‘good bits’ in olive oil are only found in newly pressed, extra virgin olive oil. All the more reason why we should be availing ourselves of locally produced oils, however, the research also stated that the oils from Sicily and Tuscany showed higher levels of oleocanthal than Australian olive oils. Our olive oil industry is but a pup compared to Italian and Spanish giants, but who knows, in time oil produced locally could be equally as beneficial. In the meantime I’m promoting the “moderation in everything except, laughter, vegetables, chocolate, fish and long walks” philosophy! To further encourage you to devour more olive oil, here is a recipe for one of the classic sauces, Hollandaise, but made with olive oil instead of butter. This sauce will be just the ticket over broccoli, asparagus, or with fish or chicken. By adding a small amount of tomato paste you will create Sauce Choron, its delicate pink colour is great over grilled meats, and by adding the tomato, you are adding the good anti-oxidants that tomatoes give you. So, approach cooking, love and eating with abandon… and your conscience won’t blink an eye. Moderation in everything? I think not!
OLIVE OIL HOLLANDAISE INGREDIENTS 100ml white vinegar 10 black peppercorns 1 bay leaf 4 sprigs tarragon or 1 teaspn dried tarragon 4 egg yolks 250ml extra virgin olive oil, warmed to just above body temperature. METHOD Heat the vinegar, peppercorns, and herbs in a small saucepan and simmer until reduced by half. Strain and discard herbs. Place egg yolks in a food processor, and with processor running add the olive oil very slowly, in a steady drizzle. The mixture will thicken. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and store at room temperature. Many recipes will advise to use this sauce within a few hours, but I have found it can be refrigerated and used over 2-3 days. If mixture ‘splits’ or separates, use a few tablespoons of very hot water to combine it. Similarly, if refrigerated, use a little warm water to bring the hollandaise back to a mayo-like consistency.

BOOK REVIEW with Alison Aprhys
The Troubled Man
Past the Shallows
HENNING Mankellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest best-seller about his popular Swedish detective, Kurt Wallender, is a
SET ON the bleak, windswept coast of Tasmania, Past the Shallows tells an equally stark story. Brothers Harry and Miles live in an old shack with their bitter father, a fisherman with his own boat which he resents is mostly owned by the bank. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cold, hard way to make a living â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even in summer. Since their mother died some years earlier, the boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; life worsens when their oldest brother, Joe, leaves home. With a feeling of despair, Miles knows he is stuck with helping his dad on the boat, even though he loathes it, while Harry is terrified of the ocean. Although the brothers do their best to look after one another, their fathersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; indifference and barely-submerged anger resonates through their home. Slowly the family is drawn into a tragedy. Parrett has created a haunting tale with some beautiful characters which transcend their brutal environment and reach out to grab your heart. Despite the constant cold and despair, the story is one of hope and redemption. A great read to share with friends, Past the Shallows is beautifully written
cracker. But really there are two troubled men at the heart of the latest story. The first is Wallander, who at age 60 works too hard, exercises too little and is stressed out by his job. Despite his ill-health he keeps this from his daughter, Linda, who followed him into the police force. On top of his troubles, he is experiencing with increasing frequency mental black-outs, which in typical male fashion, frighten him enough that he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t consult a doctor. The second troubled man is Haken von Enke, a former senior naval commander during the Cold War, whose career ran aground following a diplomatic incident in the early 1980s involving a Russian submarine. The two men meet when Linda falls in love with von Enkeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son, Hans. When Haken goes missing, leaving behind his phone, passport and money and then a month later his wife Louise is found in woodland with classified microfilm, Wallander encounters a disquieting clue that perhaps his in-laws were spies. Wallenderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intense inner life as he strives to sort out the facts from the fallacy and his determination to overcome the obstacles both personal and professional make this a highly charged and satisfying read.

This band is looking for blood
Lorne exhibitor list is finalised
BY ELEANOR WOODS TAP INTO your inner wild child and ride the musical thrills of band The Fearless Vampire Killers, when they tour the Great Ocean Road this month. Last month the band released For You and Me, the first single off their debut album; which is due out late this year. The rollicking blues track, For You and Me, has been humming on the airwaves and is set to be sung on the Surf Coast alongside the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previously released singles Alright Now Honey and Loaded Gun â&#x20AC;&#x201C; among others. The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bassist, Jacob McGuffie, said the band, which is based in Melbourne, was â&#x20AC;&#x153;really looking forward to coming down the Great Ocean Roadâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait. It should be really cool,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be great to go to a real beach for a change, not a crappy city beach.â&#x20AC;?
TORQUAY HOTEL
The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name is inspired by a Roman Polanski horror flick, and they draw their inspiration from 1960s pop and surf rock. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are influenced by bands like the Rolling Stones, the Beach Boys, The Atlantics, stuff like that,â&#x20AC;? McGuffie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The name The Fearless Vampire Killers really works for us, because people always comment on it and remember it.â&#x20AC;? McGuffie said the band didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t turn into werewolves after midnight and that audiences would be treated to aural harmonies not sideshow antics.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our music is drivey and poppy, with a few ballads to show our Neil Young side,â&#x20AC;? he said. The Fearless Vampire Killers will be joined by band, The King Cannons, for their shows at The Loft, in Warnambool, on Wednesday, June 8; The Torquay Hotel on Saturday, June 11; and at The National Hotel, in Geelong, on Sunday, June 12. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come along. It will be all good times, great vibe and a chilled party feel,â&#x20AC;? McGuffie said. Above: The Fearless Vampire Killers are set to conquer the Surf Coast.
A FOUR-METRE Buddha made entirely out of computer parts, a ship-wrecked horse, a futuristic structure that moves with the tides, and a campervan submerged in the ground are just some of the cuttingedge artworks set to transform Lorne as part of Lorne Sculpture 2011. Curator Julie Collins last week announced the complete line-up of exhibitors for the three-week art festival that will run from October 15 to November 6. More than 90 out of 350 applicants have been chosen, including some of the most innovative contemporary sculptors from Australia in addition to a select group of leading international names, all competing for over $65,000 worth of prizes. The selected artists now have just over five months to create their pieces. Visitors to Lorne during the exhibition can look forward to pieces floating in the ocean, hanging from the historic pier, built out of sand, flung over the surf club, dug into the ground, decaying on the shore, scattered in the forest, and towering up to the sky. Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most prominent sculptor, Inge King, is Lorne Sculpture 2011â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arts patron, while judges include Mary McCarthy, National Sculpture Factory director, Cork, Ireland; and Corbett Lyon, architect and collector.

Conscientious Capricorns - your leadership skills are appreciated midweek as you set a positive example, roll up your sleeves and get things done. Thursday’s Solar Eclipse is the ideal time to ditch bad habits and start afresh. Work and personal fitness are the areas where you need to make some overdue changes and adjustments – the sooner the better.
With Uranus in your sign, it’s time to shake things up. Be inspired by Clint Eastwood (born on May 31) “Sometimes, if you want to see a change for the better, you have to take things into your own hands.” Short trips are highlighted (even if it’s just around the local neighborhood) plus expect plenty of phone calls, snail mail, texts and emails.
This week you’re surrounded by innuendo and intrigue. What others say won’t necessarily be what they mean, so make sure you read between the lines to uncover what’s really going on. It’s time to retreat into your Crab cave, as the Solar Eclipse visits your contemplation zone. Enjoy solo activities like meditation, yoga or long walks in nature.
A big trip is likely over the next year, as the Solar Eclipse activates your travel zone. With this week’s Sun/Saturn aspects, the lesson to learn is self-respect. As birthday boy Clint Eastwood observes “Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that’s real power.” Sunday favors having fun with family and friends.
Show me the money! You’ve been talking about saving for something big (like a car, holiday or home deposit) for a long while but now, with the Solar Eclipse in your finance zone, you need to put your money where your mouth is and actually start saving. Plus do an inventory on your inner wealth, as you examine your self-esteem and core values.
Loquacious Lions love talking about grandiose goals and spectacular schemes. Now’s the time to walk your talk, as you put passionate plans into action. Don’t just dream about it – get out there and do it! Leading Team Leo will be a breeze mid-week, as you impress others with your enthusiasm and hard work. Socializing with colleagues brings benefits.
The Solar Eclipse stimulates your intrigue zone so no secret is safe from Scorpios this week, as you uncover clues and pick up on cues that others miss. Be careful what you unearth though - you may stir up issues from your own less-than-perfect past. Lust and loot also loom large, as you work through issues involving intimacy or joint finances.
Have you been feeling bored and uninspired? Your life is set to expand in exciting ways, especially in areas involving romance, children, friends, hobbies or sport. Thursday’s Solar Eclipse energizes your entertainment sector, so it’s time to clear your throat, polish your maracas, and find yourself a captive audience as you perform and party like a pro!
The Solar Eclipse is in your sign, so expect a busy, bustling and bamboozling week. It’s the perfect time to initiate a pet project, refresh your physical appearance, review your personal beliefs or reboot a rickety relationship. Lightning flashes of inspiration strike but make sure you communicate clearly, or there’ll be some crazy mix-ups along the way!
Versatile Virgos are clever and capable, but are you confident enough for big time success? Don’t sell yourself short! It’s time to shine, as the Solar Eclipse (plus Mercury) light up your career zone. As birthday great Marilyn Monroe reminded us “We are all stars and deserve the right to twinkle.” On Sunday, look at problems from a fresh angle.
Attached Sagittarians - the Solar Eclipse illuminates your relationship zone so your partner will act as a mirror, reflecting back your strengths (and weaknesses). Singles – look for lasting love with a gregarious Gemini or a lovable Leo. On Saturday, Jupiter jumps into Taurus (until mid-2012) which helps focus your mind and ground your fiery energy.
The winds of change are blowing through your domestic zone so you could extend your family via a wedding or baby; move house, buy a home or renovate your present dwelling. There is much satisfaction to be gained from contributing your time and talents to your local community. On Friday, don’t waste precious energy pussyfooting around.

RICHO’S BUILDING AND MAINTENANCE SERVICE
Richo’s Building and Maintenance Service will build, fix or repair. Steve ‘Richo’ and Dane are pictured in Torquay.
Building better connections TWO GENERATIONS of Richardsons make Richo’s Building and Maintenance Service a longstanding Torquay carpentry business that will set you right. When Steve started the business 26 years ago, little did he know that his boy, Dane, would be one day wearing a tool belt by his side. The family duo can tackle any of your building requirements, from decking, pergolas, home renovations, general building maintenance, kitchens and bathrooms. With more than a quarter of a century of experience working in Torquay, the pair knows the environment and what works best in the
region. “We love it here. It’s home. Why would we want to go and work anywhere else when we could work here, looking at the ocean,” Steve said. “We do quality work and take care of the pensioners. We stress the importance of employing ethical and reliable tradespeople so that you don’t get ripped off.” Steve is a qualified carpenter and Dane is two years into his carpentry apprenticeship. For more information or a free quote, phone Richo’s Building and Maintenance Service on 0402 683 555.

NORTHWEST HEATING AND COOLING
Time to service your gas heater? WITH the weather turning colder by the day as winter rapidly approaches, now is the perfect time to book your heating system in for its annual service. Northwest Heating and Cooling has more than 25 years experience in servicing all types of heating and cooling systems. According to owner Mark Tierney, all homeowners should heed the message behind the current advertising campaign highlighting the risks associated with badly maintained ducted gas heaters. “If you have a ducted gas heating system in your house, I’d strongly recommend booking it in for a service now before winter really bites. That way, you’ll ensure your family’s safety and comfort throughout the coldest months,” Tierney said. “As Geelong’s number one heating and cooling company, we offer a total service from
advising and quoting on the range of systems available through to installation and after-sales service. “Many of our customers are Surf Coast and Bellarine residents, which means we are in the area at least several times a week either quoting or undertaking jobs. “Whether you’re looking to buy a system for a new home, or to service or replace an existing one, we can meet your needs.” Northwest Heating and Cooling offers quality products, expert advice and professional workmanship at reasonable prices. “We also pride ourselves on our personalised customer service and are happy for our customers to call us for free advice and support about their heating and cooling needs,” To arrange a quote or book a service, phone 5277 1111.
GEELONG LEATHER CARE
MOJO’S CLEANING SERVICE
Look after your investments
Debbie Bannister of Mojo’s Cleaning Service is conquering the Surf Coast and Bellarine with green cleaning.
WHEN it comes to cleaning, we are always conscious of having our windows, floors and carpets cleaned, but something we tend to neglect is our leather goods. Enter a new Ocean Grove-based business, Geelong Leather Care, who can work wonders with those oft-forgotten leather products. Jeffrey Binch has just returned to the Bellarine having spent the past 15 years operating a leather repair and service business in Queensland. “It is a bit of a homecoming for me as I was born in Geelong and I always wanted to return to the area,” he said. “My grandmother is in Ocean Grove and she is one of the original inhabitants, you could say. She is getting on a bit so I have come back here to keep an eye on her and help out.” Protect your investment and save money by cleaning and conditioning your leather lounges and the leather in your car. The result of cleaning
A NEW generation of ‘green’ cleaning is emerging on the Surf Coast and Bellarine. Debbie Bannister has created a non-toxic answer to keeping your home or business spick and span. As the owner of Mojo’s Cleaning Service, Debbie provides a full cleaning service – minus the harmful toxins found in heavy duty cleaning products. “I use high-quality all-natural products that leave the home or office ultra clean without having a bad affect on health,” she said. “The environmentally friendly and health benefits of using natural products is really important to me.” The new business is already booming –
surfcoasttimes.com.au
and conditioning is significant. “Leather cleaning is essential to removing body oils, grease and dirt from leather to prevent premature deterioration and discolouration,” Binch said. “Leather conditioning puts back into the leather essential oils and moisture which occur naturally and reduce with time. “Premium conditioning creams restore these oils and moisture leaving leather smelling, feeling and looking fabulous. “People don’t pay enough attention to maintaining and looking after leather goods – and they are also probably not aware of what can be done.” Binch services the Bellarine and Geelong as well as the Surf Coast and into Colac. For more information, phone Jeff Binch on 0459 105 449 or email jeffreybinch@gmail. com
Green clean machine
proving Debbie’s approach to ‘green’ cleaning is highly sought after. “Nowadays people are far more conscious of what chemicals and toxins they are exposed to,” she said. Mojo’s Cleaning Service is a highly professional, customer-oriented business that services the Surf Coast and Bellarine Peninsula. “We are extremely trustworthy and respect privacy and confidentiality,” she said. Free quotes are available as well as pensioner discounts. Contact Debbie on 0432 505 692 and mention this Tradie Talk editorial to receive 10 per cent off the cost of your cleaning.

Joy McGregor, never far from the top these days was again toasting a victory with her 37 while for the men’s section, Geoff McGarry took honours with a fine 40 points.

the day with 42 points to win B Grade from Rob Foster and Jack Diamond who both had 41 points. Welcome back to our young professional Deyen Lawson who has been competing in Papua New Guinea. Deyen finished the day with 36 points off a handicap of Plus 5. We wish him luck as he heads off to Northern Queensland for a number of events. Chris Fryar won NTP on the 5th, while Gavin Sheahan had a day out on the par 3’s winning NTP on the 7th and 17th holes. Cameron Gill took the honours on the 13th. It was left to the brave to battle the strong Arctic winds on Wednesday for the par event, but by early afternoon the flags were barely fluttering so those playing later in the day definitely had the advantage. Captain Gary O’Brien broke a long-standing drought, finally returning to the winner’s circle, winning the comp with 5 up. Graeme Hardy was runner-up with 4 up. David Mallett won NTP on the 5th while Wes Bumpstead was closest on the 17th.

Anne Taylor won NTP on the 7th while the 13th proved too elusive for everyone! On Saturday Marianne Bridgart won the women’s comp with 39 points from Carol McDonald who still must have been on a high from the pennant victory finishing with 35 points.
John Richards, Ray Rashleigh and the in-form John Hirth. The St Therese’s Charity Day was held on Thursday. Hazel Hamilton won for the girls with 45 points and Graeme Monks won the lads notching up 47. A big thank you goes out to all the sponsors involved as it was a successful day.

THERE is a new flag flying at The Sands following the victory by the Division 4 women’s pennant team. The team of Marie Powell, Carol McDonald, Loretta Hunter, Thelma Dainton and Ros Baylis needed a win to secure the flag last Friday in the final round of matches, and they did it in style winning at Portarlington, four matches to one. Jenni Cottrill was also an integral part of the team early in the season, but was unable to play the last few matches. Congratulations to the Division 4 girls and all those players who represented the club during the pennant season and no doubt there was plenty of celebration on Friday night. Men’s Competition The Saturday morning players teed off in wet and gloomy conditions but it did clear by mid-morning. It was pretty congested at the top of the leaderboard with Craig Willian winning A Grade with 41 points from Ross Millar on 39. Jason Draper had the best score of

WITH THE colder mornings and damp afternoons now upon us, it seems there are sometimes better things than turning up for a game - like staying warm at home. But then the fairways call and away we go again. On Tuesday the men invited some mates to enjoy the course. The predicted weather proved somewhat incorrect, very little rain but wind and cold was as expected. It seems home ground advantage came to the fore as no visitors accepted major trophies. In A Grade, Linton Newitt came out on top with his 40 points. B Grade had Tom Scarff winning out with 38, C Grade was Arthur Dimble taking top spot as well as trophy of the day on a c/b from Linton and D winner was Dick Trezise with 37. On Wednesday the ladies played for one of the important trophies of the year - the Doreen Hogan Perpetual Trophy. Doreen’s trophy was presented by her daughter, Pat, to the winner Diane Roede who had

Wanda Paterson won on the 20th hole after an intense battle with Chris Thompson to win the Audrey McKenzie Salver B Grade Championship. Isabel Mahon defeated the in-form Sally Torney to take home the Alma Robertson Salver C Grade title and Wendy Johnson won the Carter Cup.

Alan Tompkin (14) won A Grade with 42 points on count back from Norman Johnson (14).

Weekend results Saturday was the final round of the Club Championships for the Men. Scott Williams (3) claimed his first club championship title, dominating the tournament from start to finish, winning by 15 strokes from last year’s winner Tim Sinnot. Scott scored a stunning 2 under par 64 on the final day, including a 25 foot putt for birdie on the last hole in front of a large gallery to finish the tournament even with the card. Scott raised his arms in victory as his wife and kids rushed to congratulate him. A well deserved, classy win. In other grades, Ryan Johnson (13) became B Grade champion, Vice Captain Geoff Lamont (17) was

Female stars are shining IT WAS another close round on Saturday. The women really brought their A game to Round Five of the GRFC Open Women’s Division One. Here’s what the results turned up. Barwon 1 Geelong 3 At Howard Glover Reserve, Geelong continued their fine run with a 3-1 defeat of Barwon. Stand outs for Geelong were Emily Livesy, Angela Nikolovski, and Sumeyra Eren. Great improvement for Geelong was in their movement of the ball and in the quality of the goals they scored. Time after time they backed each other up, with some wonderful football on display. Credit must be given to coach John Costa for the great work he has done with this talented group of players. Corio Bay Cobras 1 Surfside Waves 11 Surfside Waves turned in a fine display at Evans Reserve to beat Corio Bay a whopping 11 goals to 0. Magic Maddy Bennett grabbed 5 with Waves skipper Emma mayday Moran nearly breaking the net with a blockbuster free kick, from 40 yards. Surfside were at last able to get a strong side on the pitch for the first time this year, with Molly Strano and Cassie Hynes running the centre of
the park. Olive Torrance put in a swash buckling display at right back. Geelong Rangers 0 Deakin University 5 First half goals totaled a staggering 5 for gun Deakin player Maddie Filbay all but finished off Geelong Rangers at Myers Reserve. Deakin continued their spree in the second half with goals from Ana Burggraaf and another from Maddie Filbay. Noteworthy were the goal assists from Deakin star midfielder Jacquie Dennings, who was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet herself with many shots on goal throughout the game. Barwon Heads 1 Bellarine Sharks 3 In a battle for either team to get their first win of the season, both sides played in wonderful spirit at Barwon Heads Cricket Club. The Sharks drew first blood with a freakish shot from Amy Windsor that cruelly dipped just under the cross bar giving Heads keeper Karen Costello no chance at all. Both sides battled well and Bellarine Sharks increased their lead to 2 through a fine effort by Candice McNamara. Barwon Heads had much of the play but failed to capitalise on their efforts save for a fluke goal after a low hard shot from a tight angle snuck under the goalkeeper.
Waves up on weekend WINTER was well and truly felt on the field for Round 5 soccer matches played on weekend. Surfside Waves teams battled it out in wet and cool conditions. Most teams played at the home ground at Shell Road.
U/13 Boys: Surfside 1 Vs Surfcoast 4 Another improved effort saw Surfside match it with Surfcoast for much of the game and were unlucky not to score more goals. Very even game with Surfside growing in confidence with each game.
Senior Men: Surfside 1 Vs Barwon Heads 0 A tight tussle saw the teams locked at 0-0 at half time. The Waves managed to get their nose in front and hold on with Nic Hargraves scoring the only goal of the game.
U/12 Boys: Surfside 6 Vs Surfcoast Blue 0 First win of the season for the boys in an outstanding effort. Goal scorers: Rory Dean, 4, Kyle Milton, 1, and Sebastian Turner, 1.
Senior Women: Corio Bay 0 Vs 0 Surfside 11 Surfside dominated the game from the first whistle with a constant flow of goals throughout the game. U/17 Boys: Surfside 1 Vs North Geelong Warriors 15 A big task against one of the better teams in the competition proved too much for the Waves. Keep at it boys and the improvement will come with more games under your belt. U/15 Boys: Surfside 5 Vs Breakwater Eagles 1 Surfside continued their winning form and are really starting to click as a team. Goal scorers were John Black, 1, and Jacob Nicholson, 4.
U/15 Girls: Surfside 1 Vs Kardinia 4 The Waves met Kardinia for the second week in a row with the result much the same. Surfside was not able to contain the Kardinia attack and went down 4-1. U/13 Girls: Surfside 9 Vs Bell Park Red 0 An outstanding team performance. Goal Scorers: Isabel Greer,4, Caitlin Pickett, 3, Frances Dungey, 1, and Cassidy Waugh, 1.

Surf Coast soccer report SURF COAST soccer stars shone on the weekend. Here’s the run down on what went down. Surf Coast Girls U/15 defeated Lara 4-0 It was a beauty of a game in driving rain on their home turf of Connewarre for the Surf Coast. The Coasters worked the ball effortlessly up the wing into mid-field and created lots of opportunities, with Dominique Sherry and Caitlin Hannah scoring a goal each in the first few minutes. U/13 Boys Surf Coast Yellow defeated Barwon 6-1 Surf Coast mid-centers James Shanhun and Victor Ostrowsky led the victory against Barwon, both kicking two goals each. Jordy and James feeding the strikers kept Barwon at bay in a fast paced game. Surf Coast Boys U/13 Blue defeated Surfside Waves 4-1 The boys had a stellar win over Surfside Waves despite the rain and muddy conditions. The first half was fast with quick passes, great footwork, strong defence and near miss goals. Surf Coast Boys Blue U/12 lost to Surfside 0-6 The boys were flat this week and were up against
it from the start. The shining light on the day was Lucas Berry who attacked every opportunity and put in a great effort. Joe Vasey again was our best player and used the ball well at all times. Surf Coast U/15 Boys drew with Geelong Rangers 2-2 The under 15’s ventured to Myers Reserve to take on ladder leaders Geelong Rangers. At the end of the day we were happy to take away a 2-2 draw, and that was a probably a good reflection of the evenness of the two sides. U/13 Girls Surf Coast Yellow 0 vs Surf Coast Blue 6 Surf Coast Yellow got off to a good start but the Blues got a few sneaky goals past brave goalie Emi. Good job girls and best of luck with next week’s games.
METRO N & W LEAGUE Surf Coast U/ 18s defeated Brunswick Zebras 7-0 The Coasters great run of form continued although the first 45 minutes was probably the worst the team has played this season. The second half was a lot better and the floodgates opened, as the Coasters roared to a 7-0 victory.

As I reported last week a public meeting was called in Anglesea in regard to the town riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health. The State Government is looking into problems that surround a large number of fish kill incidents that took place between September 2010 and January 2011. The adopted attitude by officials was that this was a natural event caused to by naturally occurring high acid sulphate soils. As a fisherman and with support of other fisherman, including organisations such as VRFISH and AFTA, a consensus was reached that this was highly unlikely to be the case. Concern was high that we were not being told the truth or that due diligence was being taken to address the problem. Frank Parsons, a local scientist from Geelong, also agreed with our concerns, supporting the premise that all was not as it seemed. A community group was formed to take the concerns to the government and see if they could establish why these events had happened. Though the community was promised an investigation all we received was a review which was not able to investigate any of the issues and was in fact just to review any data that was available and had to call upon public submissions from the public to ascertain if there was anything to even investigate. Thus after a seven-month private investigation

Frank said a number of factors contributed to the overall result such as government inactions as well as inappropriately established infrastructure in the river; however one thing has become abundantly clear through this process. If the community is to have their concerns addressed then this whole episode demands a Full Parliamentary inquiry if not a Royal Commission to take place. To establish once and for all, if there is in fact a case to be answered too and if there is, then those responsible must be held to the full account of the law.
