SCHOOL’S OUT EXCLUSIVE

Surf Coast Secondary School is unlikely to be ready by the promised date – Government at loggerheads with land-owner over price of the land

Su rf Forecast

BY LUKE GRIFFITHS TORQUAY SECONDARY students could have the important final years of their education disrupted, with serious doubts that Torquay’s standalone secondary school will be ready by 2013. It is widely assumed that the secondary school – a pre-election promise of the Victorian Coalition Government – will be built to the east of the Surf Coast Shire’s Community and Civic Precinct on the Surf Coast Highway. However, the Surf Coast Times can reveal that the education department has not purchased any land on the site.

The land remains the property of a businessman. The Baillieu Government has allocated $8.4 million for the purchase of the five-hectare site, considerably below what the vendor is asking. Based on land prices at The Quay development, if the blocks were subdivided the developer would make around $17 million in profit. A lump sum payment would entitle the buyer to a discounted rate, yet this figure would still fall substantially short of what the Government has set aside for the purchase. Negotiations have stalled and both parties appear reluctant to budge.

Amy’s grand race Last weekend was busy on the coast, with Amy’s Gran Fondo featuring more than 3,000 cyclists racing in an Australian-first format. The Amy Gillett Foundation organised the ride to help continue promoting its message of safe cycling; which council supports strongly. Organisers of the event also ran a community ride, which a number of council staff participated in. With cycling growing in popularity on the Surf Coast, the slogan of “a metre matters” is even more important on our roads. As part of the event, council provided $5,000 in marketing support as part of a partnership with the Amy Gillett Foundation to promote safe riding.

Important work continues at Bells More good news at Bells Beach this week, with council starting work on a private sewer main that will connect toilets at the reserve to Barwon Water’s sewer network. This will supersede the septic system, which council has been pumping out regularly in recent times to ensure it can cope with the reserve’s growing visitation. The sewer main is one of the most important projects in the Bells Beach Coastal Management Plan, which council passed in September 2010 to help protect the reserve’s environmental, social and cultural value from the impacts of growing visitation. Council will focus on minimising inconvenience to reserve users and minimising impact on the reserve during the construction. Regular visitors are advised to observe signs on site during construction for more information. The sewer main is a $250,000 project that is

being completed with support from the Victorian Government through Regional Development Victoria.

Council, customer service available in Lorne This Wednesday 21 September, council will offer a customer service and councillor presence at the Lorne Visitor Information Centre. This will be the final session in a six-month trial council has operated. Cr Ron Humphrey and Cr Libby Coker will be available between 10am and midday, and 1pm and 3pm respectively to discuss council issues with local residents. A customer service officer will be available to take payments and relevant queries between 10am and 12:30pm, and from 1:15pm to 3:30pm. Council will evaluate the uptake of this trial and assess the demand for maintaining a customer service presence at Lorne.

Council to meet in Aireys Inlet On Wednesday 28 September, council will be holding its monthly meeting at the Aireys Inlet Community Hall. Council holds meetings throughout the shire to provide the opportunity for residents to meet councillors and see council in action. So far this year, council has also held meetings at Lorne and Moriac. The meeting will start at 6pm with a number of items on the agenda and all community members are welcome to attend.

Green building triumph Finally, with the Green Building Council Australia celebrating World Green Building

SELF STORAGE Torquay

Week this week, it’s timely to reflect on progress at the Community and Civic Precinct; where construction is progressing rapidly. Stage one of the precinct will be complete in December this year on schedule; including the Surf Coast Civic Building. Designed to reflect our community’s environmental conscience, the building is the only civic building in regional Victoria that has achieved the Five-star Green Star accreditation from the Green Building Council Australia. There are a number of environmentallyfriendly measures that have been taken in the construction; including the use of photo-voltaic solar panels and a wind turbine to produce energy, an internal atrium to facilitate airflow and provide natural light and the use of less concrete and steel in the construction process. Sporting fields are also due to be surfaced shortly, while the two-storey Community Hub building that will service the sporting fields is close to complete.

Retail redundancies hit home BY ALISON DEANE GLOBAL SURFWEAR company Quiksilver, founded in Torquay in 1971 by Alan Green and John Law, last week cut 20 staff from their design and merchandise areas. The cuts come as retailing endures its worst conditions in 20 years but – with some staff offered transfers to the company’s US headquarters in California’s Huntington Beach – it may not be all bad news. Executive Director at the Australian Retailers Association Russell Zimmerman said the job cuts have come at a time when many retailers have had to review their business and staffing models due to poor trading conditions and generally a very tough trading environment. “The fashion end of retail is the worst suffering industry category with a decline figure of 7.5 per cent. Retailers are at tipping point and if pressure on the sector doesn’t ease soon we might unfortunately see some more jobs lost. “Generally businesses will try and retain talent if they possibly can, and will take any opportunity to invest in that talent,� said Mr Zimmerman, in regard to the offered transfers. “Redundancies in any area are always disappointing, job cuts can have a dampening impact on a community where everyone is a closeknit part of both that local community, its skill base and its economy,� said Mr Zimmerman. Surf Coast Shire Mayor Cr Dean Webster said any job loss in the local community is unfortunate. “We hope to see locally-founded businesses retain a strong presence as major employers and contributors to the Surf Coast community in the long-term. “We are confident that further growth in local industries, development opportunities including the

West Coast Business Park and growth particularly centred in Torquay and Winchelsea will provide substantial employment opportunities for local people. “Council has economic development and planning policies in place with a view to helping grow local employment opportunities,� said Cr Webster. The cuts happened despite the Victorian Coalition Government’s agenda to stimulate growth, jobs and the economy, and their commitment to growing our employment base. Last month the Victorian Coalition Government removed red tape and impediments to retail by changes to the definition of restricted retail zoning, opening up the spectrum of what can be sold at a restricted retail premise. Quiksilver was unavailable for comment as the paper went to press.

Helping in the heath: over 50 people of all ages took to the Anglesea Heath as part of Biodiversity Month.

Weeding out boneseed AN ANGLESEA Heath biodiversity activity has been hailed as a great success with over 50 participants. Members of Alcoa, Parks Victoria, ANGAIR, Friends of Eastern Otways, Otway Community Conservation Network, Conservation Volunteers Australia and Anglesea Primary School banded together to remove boneseed from the Heath.

eliminate native understorey species and reduce regeneration abilities of native trees and shrubs. Elise Jeffrey, environment officer at Anglesea Power Station, said the area is looking great after the work of the volunteers, with significantly less boneseed than before. “Alcoa would like to say thanks again for doing your bit for the local environment,� she said. For more information, check out www. environment.gov.au/biodiversity/month.html

CLARIFICATION: Last week the introduction to the ‘In the air’ front-page article said ‘Public forum calls for an independent air quality assessment at the Point Henry facility’. What it should have said was ‘Public forum calls for an independent air quality assessment in Anglesea’. This is an important distinction as there has not been an independent air quality assessment specifically for the Anglesea area.

SCHOOL’S OUT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

James Martin, spokesman for education minister Martin Dixon, said that there is a strong chance that the State Government would attempt to acquire the land under the Land Acquisition and Compensation Act (LACT), if negotiations did not progress. “The proposed location is ideal and we believe the Government has offered a reasonable price and if the issue can’t be resolved soon then there is a strong possibility that we will compulsorily acquire the land, which is the Government’s right.” South Barwon Liberal MP Andrew Katos is similarly spruiking the Government’s line.

“

“If it (building the school) means compulsorily acquiring the land to meet Torquay’s ever growing educational needs then acquisition should be considered.”

”

SOUTH BARWON LIBERAL MP ANDREW KATOS

Victorian Labor MP and shadow education minister Rob Hulls was quick to highlight that the possibility of legal proceedings showed that the Government cannot follow through on what it promised in the lead-up to the election. “The Government promised the world during the campaign and now it appears to be dithering without delivering. They went to the election with a commitment and they should have had the necessary plans in place. “It’s clear that they (the Coalition) didn’t have the plans in place and now timelines are going to blow out. They have no idea and no strategy.” Such is the scope of the project, the money allocated for the school constitutes one-fifth of the education state capital works budget. Despite this, it is likely the Government’s $34.9 million budget for the school – $8.4 million for the land and $26.5 million for its construction – is severely underestimating the cost of the project, especially considering the prospect of court action between the two parties. Victoria’s Valuer-General Robert Marsh has placed an independent value on what he estimates the land is worth, but if the two parties do not agree on the compensation amount then the claim is deemed to be in dispute and would most likely result in Supreme Court proceedings.

Such delays would make it almost impossible for the Government to have the school up and running by the beginning of 2013, yet despite all the roadblocks that are currently in place, Mr Martin remains confident the Government will do as it promised. “We understand that time is critical and we’re very mindful of having the school operating by 2013. That remains our plan and although the land has not been purchased we have been running a parallel design phase to help minimise any possible delays.”

““Once the land has been purchased we plan on everything happening quite fast.” SPOKESMAN FOR EDUCATION MINISTER MARTIN DIXON

Surf Coast Mayor Dean Webster has urged both parties to put aside any differences and reengage negotiations. “The Surf Coast council encourages the timely provision of secondary education for our community,” he said. Glenda Valentine, a member of the ‘Concerned Parents About Torquay and Surf Coast Schooling’ group, said that there would be understandable disappointment if the Government failed to meet its projected timelines. “I have heard the plans look great, but I would be

new school council.

THE EDUCATION debacle concerning Torquay College has taken another twist with the state government set to split the school in two next year. From the start of the 2012 school year, the college will have a standalone primary school and a standalone secondary school – with both remaining on the current Grossmans Road site. The new direction is a makeshift move until the standalone secondary school is built and ready for use in 2013. Although no site has been agreed to, it appears certain the secondary school will be built in the Community and Civic Precinct in Torquay north, where sporting ovals and facilities will be shared by the school and community. The splitting of the school will include the appointment this year of a new principal for the secondary school, while Pam Kinsman will remain in charge of the primary school. The secondary school will run as a separate entity and, as such, will have its own administration and management – including a

Although the logistics of the split have yet to be confirmed, it is certain that the college will lose more of its green spaces as temporary buildings to accommodate Year 10 students will be moved in. Education Minister, Martin Dixon, informed the school of the decision last Friday as he stood firm on the Coalition’s pre-election promise of building a standalone secondary school while returning the current Torquay College to primary school only. Dixon also confirmed that the government had no intention of fast-tracking the building of a second primary school in Torquay. “We will continue with the same plan – it is the plan we have had on the table since 2006,” Dixon said. “The current Year 9 students will stay on site next year as Year 10s in portable classrooms for one year. The new (standalone secondary) school will be ready for the start of 2013, accommodating Years 7 to 11; then in 2014 we will add Year 12. “We recognise there is the need for a further primary school and we also are aware there is the need for more kindergarten space.”

Despite assurances the new secondary school will be ready for 2013, Torquay College school council president, Sean O’Brien, labelled the timeline “ambitious” and called for a comprehensive contingency plan. O’Brien also said the plan to add portable buildings next year to accommodate the split was reducing available green space, forcing students to play on concrete. He sited a rise in the number of hard-surface injuries as a growing concern. Shadow Minister for Education, Rob Hulls, accused the government of being stubborn and failing to listen the needs of the community. “The education of young kids shouldn’t be a political football,” he said. “It’s very important that the government listens to the local community and makes an absolute commitment to another primary school in Torquay. “Everyone knows the best outcome now would be to make the current college into P-12 and build another primary school, but because that was a Labor plan, this government is turning its back on it… and on the community.”

If it’s not (ready) there will be a lot of fingers to point (the blame).” At present, secondary education in Torquay only provides for year seven to nine students at Torquay College in Grossmans Road, while in 2012 this will extend to year 10 students through the use of portable classrooms. Under current plans, all students from year seven to 12 will be moved to the standalone secondary school. The development company acting on behalf of the land owner did not want to comment on the matter, citing confidentiality clauses.

Modest rises, immodest consequences BY HAMISH BROOKS A PROGRESS report into minor sea level rises along the Surf Coast doesn’t make for happy reading, according to the Surf Coast’s federal MP. It indicates that big erosion events – like those that have caused massive loss of sand at Whites Beach – will be regular occurrences. According to Member for Corangamite Darren Cheeseman, the Coastal Vulnerability Study undertaken on behalf of the Great Ocean Road Committee reveals some very serious scenarios. “This study looked into the sea level rise scenarios that have been judged as realistic by the scientific community, which was between 0.2m and 0.8m,� Mr Cheeseman said. “What it has shown is that even under the most modest of sea level rise scenarios of point two of a metre, there is a whole host of coastal infrastructure vulnerable to coastal erosion. “And once you get anywhere above the point two of a metre mark that brings into play some very serious scenarios where residential and commercial properties are threatened in places like Torquay and Anglesea, and caravan parks, surf life saving clubs and other coastal infrastructure will go as well.� GORCC Chief Executive Officer Richard Davies said the organisation recently sent a Progress Report for the Surf Coast Coastal Climate Change Vulnerability and Adaptation Project to the project’s key stakeholders. “We are pleased to be able to undertake such a significant study which will provide invaluable information for use by GORCC in planning and implementing adaptation strategies to ensure a health and sustainable future for our coast. “The coast is dynamic in nature, exemplified

by recent weather events and subsequent shoreline erosion and damage to infrastructure over the winter months. “The final report will be extensive and detailed, and will be released to the public on completion.� On the matter of dune erosion at Whites Beach – which has affected beach access – Mr Davies said there are areas of coastal shoreline erosion around White’s Beach which have created unstable ‘sand cliffs’ that are naturally settling to more stable

slopes. “GORCC aims to have all beach access paths reinstated before summer,� he said. “This will include instating some new infrastructure such as a new stairway opposite Aquila Avenue, near Deep Creek. “These erosion processes are predicted to increase due to the effects of climate change as per projections taken from established international sources on climate change.�

The council’s acting director sustainable communities Brydon King explained that signage such as the type erected by Bunnings requires a planning permit under the Surf Coast Shire Planning Scheme. “As Bunnings does not have a planning permit for the signage, council officers advised the company that it had two options: to apply for a permit or to remove the signage,� said Mr King. “Bunnings has since informed us that it will take down the signage at its earliest convenience, either on September 16 or some time the following week.�

Before and after: Bunnings were asked to either take down signs around their block or apply for a permit.

GREEN THE COAST COLUMN

Look out for wonderful wildlife THE SURF Coast community is being urged to take simple steps to protect native wildlife and to know what do when they come across an injured, sick or orphaned animal. Native animals can be injured, orphaned or killed as a result of human activities or natural disasters and around 7,000 native animals are treated in Victorian animal shelters each year. Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE) Wildlife Officer Stan Williams said the best way to look after an animal in distress was to call the right people immediately. “If you hit an animal it is important to check whether they are alive or deceased and whether they have any young. “If they are alive and need help DSE have a customer service centre which will direct you to the closest local animal shelter or refuge. “Wildlife can only be taken in by people who have a permit, who are registered wildlife shelter operators or foster carers.” Tehree Gordon, Jirralingha Koala and Wildlife Sanctuary Founder and co-director, said it was important that people didn’t try to care for injured or sick wildlife themselves, which could often lead to more damage to the animal. “People often make the mistake of thinking they should feed them. Animals aren’t like humans – they don’t need three meals a day.” The most common injuries amongst the animals being cared for by Jirralingha Wildlife Sanctuary are a result of animals being hit by cars, or attacked by dogs or cats. A simple measure you can take to protect native animals in your area is to ensure that your cats and dogs are not able to run free at night. “Kangaroos are often injured by dogs running free at night. The dogs chase them and they run on

to the road and get hit by cars,” Ms Gordon said. There are many volunteers working tirelessly to care for injured and sick wildlife but more help is needed. “We are looking for extra people to train to be wildlife rescuers and carers right along the Surf

Coast,” Ms Gordon said. For more information on caring for wildlife, please visit www.dse.vic.gov.au or telephone the DSE Customer Service Centre on 136 186 or contact Jirralingha Koala and Wildlife Sanctuary on 03 5254 248.

Residents should call the relevant authorities if they come across an injured animal such as this koala, which is now being cared for at Jirralingha Koala and Wildlife Sanctuary.

Flying fox fun for all The Surf Coast Shire will soon unveil its playground on the Whites Beach foreshore at Torquay. The multi-purpose site includes a flying fox, a bird’s nest swing, a large climbing net, a sand play area, timber sculptures, an art trail and various community artwork installations. The design was inspired by the local flora, fauna and cultural heritage of the Whites Beach area with input from the Wathaurung Aboriginal Corporation throughout the project. Mayor Dean Webster said the playground would provide important public space for the community and also a great connection to the cultural heritage of the land. “With population growth over a number of years in this area of Torquay, more people are using Whites Beach and are also looking for new and interesting places to visit. The features of the playground combine to create a beautiful and welcoming space for all to enjoy.” It is planned that the $100,000 playground will be open by the end of this week.

Paul Rebbechi puts the finishing touches on the soon to be open Whites Beach playground.

Propelling success

News in brief

BY LUKE GRIFFITHS

Torquay school burglary

TWO AIREYS Inlet students have been propelled into Victoria’s technological elite after they recently came third in the 2011 Techno Challenge. Chloe O’Riley and Esther Morgan, both grade five students at Lorne-Aireys Inlet P-12 College, researched and analysed the inner-workings of a propeller car and then presented the findings to a judging panel. The girls also had to create a propeller car model. According to Chloe, the idea originated from the watching videos of propeller cars on the internet.

“We researched cool cars on YouTube and we saw a propeller car. We liked it because it didn’t need petrol. “I think receiving the award was the proudest day of my life.” At a function at Kooyong Tennis Club the girls were given a framed certificate and were also awarded $1500 worth of educational electronic kits that will be used at the school. Teacher Suzie Reeves said that the award was thoroughly deserved, especially considering that there were more than 2000 entries in the state-wide competition. “Chloe and Esther are fantastic ambassadors for our

school. They worked extremely hard on the project and we’re very proud of their achievement.” The main aim of the Techno Challenge is to introduce young people to the world of manufacturing and engineering. The competition was sponsored by the Vernier Society which was formed in 1942 and named after French mathematician Pierre Vernier. Chairman Peter Murie said that one of the group’s key aims was to develop budding engineers. “The Techno Challenge is the annual major outreach project of the Vernier Society and we’re committed to fostering the next generation of engineers.”

Community’s Price is right

LAPTOPS AND netbooks worth $15,000 were stolen from Torquay’s St Therese Primary School during a recent break-in. There was also approximately $15,000 damage to doors, carpets and windows. Detective Sergeant Craig Blunt from Torquay’s Crime Investigation Unit said four 14 year old boys were arrested about nine hours after the break-in. “One of the boys we arrested was from Jan Juc, one was from Torquay, and two were from Belmont. They’ll be charged on summons with burglary, theft and criminal damage.” The school said it would look at increasing its security in the coming weeks.

Restricted dog breeds

BY LUKE GRIFFITHS SOMETHING FOR everyone is on offer at Torquay’s Price Street Community Precinct. There are five buildings situated within 100 metres of each other that offer everything from morning activities for pre-school children to a hub for the region’s senior citizens. The five buildings that make up the precinct are: Spring Creek Community House (SCCH), Community Men’s Shed, Senior Citizens, Torquay Improvement Association, and Torquay Old Police Station (TOPS). There are also rooms available for hire throughout the complex. SCCH coordinator Laura Connor said she was excited that so many community services will be on offer in a centrally located position. “It’s great to have an area that will offer so much, especially considering there will be something for people of all ages.

Ray Basby (Community Men’s Shed), Eillen Coutts (Senior Citizens), Laura Connor (Community House coordinator), Aileen Bruce (Senior Citizens), Lesley McQuinn (Torquay Improvement Association), and Michael Lambkin (Torquay Theatre Troupe) are getting ready for the Price Street Community Precinct’s open day.

“We are particularly pleased that the TOPS building will be included in the precinct. As the name suggests it used to be a police station, so to be able to keep that building for community use is fantastic.” During October there will be an open day for anyone who is interested in a closer look of what’s on offer.

“We really encourage everyone to come down at have a look on October 22 between 10am and 2pm. There’s plenty to see and the more community involvement the better,” Ms Connor said. For more information contact Spring Creek Community House on 03 5261 2583.

THE STATE Government has set September 29 as the last day for restricted breed dogs to be registered with a local Council. The Surf Coast Shire is urging owners of American pitbulls, pitbull crosses and other restricted breed dogs to ensure their animals are registered. Owners of restricted breed dogs that do not register their animals before this date risk having the dogs seized. Importantly, restricted dogs can be kept as long as they were in Victoria before September 1 2010 and registered with the local Council before September 30 this year. Council will also be checking the breed of all dogs that are registered for the first time during September to ensure they are correctly identified.

Surf Coasters keep Australia beautiful BY ALISON DEANE TWO LOCAL community groups have been chosen as finalists in the 2011 Keep Australia Beautiful Victoria Tidy Towns – Sustainable Communities Awards, to be announced on October 22 at the Rutherglen Ceremony.

The nominations indicate the significance of the work of local groups in the environment, with ANGAIR (Anglesea, Aireys Inlet Society for the Protection of Flora and Fauna) leading the way in environmental protection, and the Aireys Inlet Community Garden Group in community action.

ANGAIR teaming up with Anglesea Primary School to remove boneseed.

The two groups were chosen out of 53 entrants and Member for Polwarth Terry Mulder wished them both well for the October 22nd Ceremony. “I am delighted to see both these groups’ work recognised,” he said. “On behalf of the Anglesea and Aireys Inlet communities, I congratulate ANGAIR president Chris Morrisey, Daryl Love, the president of the Community Garden, and members of both groups for their efforts.” Minister for Environment and Climate Change Ryan Smith said that the Victoria Tidy Towns awards build community pride by giving regional communities an opportunity to celebrate their innovative, sustainable and creative initiatives. “The awards are a great way for your town to experience state-level recognition for everyday action taken to improve, maintain and sustain the local environment,” he said. ANGAIR protects the indigenous flora, fauna and natural beauty of the local coast. Projects have included propagation of indigenous plants at the primary school, working bees and a successful Wildflower Weekend and Art Show. The Aireys Inlet Community Garden Group (Community Garden 3231) undertake sustainable gardening to grow food, and facilitate community development and workshops.

Clean up Cosies BY ALISON DEANE MILLIONS OF people around the world united in global environmental action this weekend for Clean up the World Weekend and International Coastal Cleanup Day. Sunday saw the gathering of many keen volunteers taking action at a local level for the Surfrider Foundation’s beach clean-up at Cosy Corner in Torquay. The bags of plastic bottles, glass and cigarette butts collected not only made the area shine but served to draw public attention to rubbish and the effect it can have on marine life and our environment. Surfrider Surf Coast branch president John Foss said littering is a huge problem, with plastic debris in our oceans destroying the natural environment. “It destroys the enjoyment we get, but more importantly it has a negative impact on marine life that is dying because of plastic; they see it and ingest it. Beach cleanups are a great way people can get involved, raise awareness about these issues, and hopefully influence others. “There’s a real push in Torquay for it to become plastic-bag free and that’s a fantastic idea. The really important message is ‘don’t leave your rubbish at the beach, don’t even drop it in the street. It travels down storm-water drains, into the waterways and into the ocean. If you use plastic, you should be reusing it and recycling it.” The day was complemented by the screening of Bag It, by Take 3’s Tim Silverwood. Those keen to make a difference can join Surfrider next month at the Bells Beach cleanup.

Lorne in Focus

Tuesday 20 September 2011

Sculpting the Lorne shoreline AUSTRALIA’S MOST diverse contemporary sculpture event will transform the picturesque Lorne shoreline into a world-leading gallery for three weeks beginning October 15. The biennial Lorne Sculpture Festival will showcase both local and international artists, and with more than $65,000 worth of prizes attendees can expect to see world-class talent right on their own doorstep. The showcase attraction, the Sculpture Trail, will feature a selection of 40 large artworks set along the coastline from the Lorne pier to the Erskine River. Situated on the Lorne section of the Great Ocean Road, works will be on display 24 hours a day, come rain, hail or shine. The event’s curator, Julie Collins, is thrilled that such a diverse range of sculptures will be on display. “We are thrilled to have secured such impressive and diverse talent. Our selection not only includes

up-and-comers from the Australian sculptural scene, but also boasts some of the globe’s most prominent sculptors. “We are particularly honoured to announce the inclusion of international drawcards Marsha Pels from the USA and the Vainica Project from Spain and the USA. “Australians including Simon Perry, Inge King, Matt Harding, Greg Johns, Robert Hague and Elizabeth Presa are all contributing works.� New to the 2011 event is the ‘Lorne Sculpturscape’, a world-first sculpture competition in which 21 artists will be given seven hours to create works that respond directly to the Lorne environment. Onlookers will be able to marvel as the selected competitors take advantage of water, sand, rocks and lawn to build their creations over the course of the day. For more information visit www. lornesculpture.com

FOLLOWING MONTHS of consultation, Lorne Community Hospital has outlined its financial and service plan. Lorne residents, as well as hospital staff gave input earlier this year as part of the drafting process – the results of which have helped create a set of goals that will be the basis of planning for the next five to 10 years. The main purpose of the plan is to have the structures in place to effectively handle the community’s changing needs. The hospital’s CEO Janelle Bryce said the plan provides a clear direction for the delivery of health services in Lorne and the surrounding

A great ocean road ride for Amy BY ALISON DEANE OVER 3,200 riders took on the Great Ocean Road under sunny skies on Sunday, competing in the inaugural Amy’s Gran Fondo and Great Ocean Road ride in Lorne. The event – organised by the Amy Gillett Foundation – provided riders with the experience of a fully closed road race, and the focus on safety proved successful with no incidents despite early rain. Inspired by the life of Amy Gillett, the foundation was formed to reduce the incidence of death and

injury caused by the interaction between cyclists and motorists and the message was to promote sharing on our roads. “It was a fantastic success and we are very ecstatic at the result,� said David Lee, head of marketing at the Amy Gillett Foundation. Competitors traveled from overseas and interstate to join recreational and social local riders, all of whom had praise for the event and the Great Ocean Road leg, according to Lorne Business and Tourism association’s Chris Tully. “It all seems to have gone to plan, the weather was perfect.

“It was exceptionally well run and managed; cyclists are already booking in for next year. Congratulations to the foundation.� Lorne was alive, with restaurants brimming and accommodation solidly booked for the weekend, and many cyclists chose to stay on and enjoy the beautiful weather. Lorne was host to official presentations with all winners receiving a medal, and the top 25 riders in each category qualifying to race in the UCI World Cycling Tour event in Belgium, a new series for amateur riders. “The event was fantastic, it brought so many

people to the area, who were all well received by traders and the local community,� said Mr Lee. “We’re very happy with the response from all riders, and are looking forward to an even bigger and better event in 2012.� For all results go to www.bikeexchange.com.au

Caught in time BY LUKE GRIFFITHS A GROUP of Lorne students have put together a film clip based around the construction of the Great Ocean Road. The project, A Pot Holed History of the Great Ocean Road, saw a number of students from the Lorne Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) campus work alongside the Lorne Historical Society to scan and restore thousands of historical photos. The students also interviewed elderly locals as part of the project. The end result premiered in the foyer of the historical Lore Picture Theatre as part of the recent Performing Arts Festival. Following the success of this project, there are plans for the VCAL students to continue their partnership with the Historical Society by preserving entire historical photo collections. Video documentaries will also be made to give context to the tales behind the still images. Students involved in the project were Hayden Bromley, Dylan Vetroni, Dom McGuiness, Amanda Aitkins, Sam James, Tex Law, Sophie Bean, and Daniel Howard Briggs. Overseeing the project were teachers Geoff Bird and Cherie Osta.

Over 3,200 cyclists descended on Lorne over the weekend for the inaugural Amy’s Gran Fondo.

DELIVERING THE NEWS The Surf Coast Times and Bellarine Times is running a weekly profile on the unheralded people who bring this paper to you. This week Noah Hodgson talks about Lego and jumping dogs. Name: Noah Hodgson Age: 13 Location: I have lived in Ocean Grove all my life. How long have you been delivering the paper for? I have delivered the Bellarine Times for almost two years and before that I did another paper round. What area do you deliver the paper to? The area around John Dory Drive in Ocean Grove. What is the funniest thing that has happened to you while you have been delivering the paper? I was about to finish my deliveries when this dog started barking at me so I turned around to see where the dog was. I saw the dog’s head bob up and over a tall fence and then back down again, it kept doing it for almost five minutes. How do you spend the money you earn delivering the paper? I save the money I get from the paper round and buy big sets of Lego that I want. My biggest was the Star Wars Death Star – one of the biggest sets you can get. I also went halves with my parents for a really good steel string guitar. What do you want to do when you get older? I would like to be some type of engineer or architect. If I owned a newspaper... I’d put funny comics in it.

Children’s garden ready to go BY LUKE GRIFFITHS THE JAN Juc Pre-School is set to unveil a ‘Children’s Garden’ in memory of Bev Jacobsen, a much loved and respected staff member of more than 15 years who passed away from cancer three years ago. The pre-school and Jan Juc community joined forces to build the garden as a lasting legacy of Ms Jacobsen. The garden will be used as an outdoor reading area and will also include a number of sensory garden beds. One of the garden beds will feature succulents from Ms Jacobsen’s personal garden, which was her favourite type of plant. A small commemorative plaque will be included within the garden. The pre-school’s coordinator Sue Gout said that the garden was built with practicality in mind and that it is a fitting tribute. “Bev had a wonderful manner with the children, a great sense of humour she shared with everyone and a positive, happy outlook on life in general. She had some wonderful little sayings that we recall with very fond memories. “Bev will always be part of this centre – she gave so much in so many ways and her memorial garden will become a place for quiet play experiences for the children, for stories to be read, for children to share time together.” The placing of the garden will also allow Ms Jacobsen’s family, friends and former students to view the garden from the pre-school’s boundary fence within the Bob Pettit Reserve. The garden was funded by the pre-school with donations from parents and the assistance of local tradespeople. “The garden will be enjoyed by all the children, parents and staff for many years,” Ms Gout said.

Jebeweng indigenous dancers will perform at the formal opening of the ‘Children’s Garden’ on October 23 at 11am. A plant registry for anyone wishing to donate to

the garden has been set up at McGain’s Nursery in Anglesea. For more information telephone the pre-school on (03) 5261 2643.

Why the dole face if it’s easier? NEW FEDERAL Government legislation is set to make life easier for students to access youth allowance. The Gillard Government announced it will introduce legislation to the Parliament this week that eliminates regional eligibility distinctions for students from inner regional areas, giving students on the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast greater access to independent youth allowance.

According Member for Corangamite Darren Cheesemen, students on the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast will be able to access independent Youth Allowance in the same way as students from outer regional, remote and very remote areas. “Under Labor, an additional 25,000 students have accessed Youth Allowance in just more than a year,” Darren Cheeseman said. “From January 1 next year, students

across all regional areas will have the same access to independent Youth Allowance. “The Gillard Government has removed the distinctions between regional students so, regardless of whether they live in an inner regional, outer regional, remote or very remote area, all regional students will be subject to the same rules.” Darren Cheeseman said the Gillard Government had listened to students in

inner regional areas, including students on the Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast. The Government’s response to Youth Allowance partially adopts the recommendations of Kwong Lee Dow AM’s independent Review of Student Income Support Reforms, tabled in Parliament last week, as well as the additional support for students through the boost to Relocation Scholarships.

The Gillard Government has also increased the value of the Relocation Scholarship for eligible students to recognise the higher costs that students from regional areas often experience when they relocate for study. From 1 January next year, eligible regional students will receive a Relocation Scholarship of $4000 for the first year of study, $2000 for each of the second and third years and $1000 for subsequent years.

Running improvements RUNNING can be a great way to improve your fitness and lose weight. First reactions from many people are “but I can’t run, or I’m not a runner”. These comments are often made when the person has never attempted running or has bad memories from an attempted run in the past. One of the best ways to start running is to start off moderately and gradually increase your intensity. An example of this would be to start off with a 10 minute brisk walk as a warm-up and then start with a 20 second jog, followed by a 40 second brisk walk. Repeat the jog/walk combination 10 to 20 times (depending on your fitness level) and then finish off with a 5 minute walk to cool-down. Gradually increase your jogging duration with each attempt at running. You will soon be running for 40 seconds followed by a brisk walk of 20 seconds, with your running improving dramatically. Once you achieve running for a minute, try to run for as long as you can after your warm-up. Include a brisk walk as a recovery before attempting to run for as long as you can again. If you can include running a few times each week, it won’t be long before you are able to run a kilometre. Your distances and speed will then increase quickly provided you are willing to challenge yourself with your training. Training for fun runs can be a great goal and motivation for your running. Start off with short distances and you can challenge yourself with longer distances later. For example, the Run Geelong event will be held on the 20 November, 2011 with distances of 6 and 12kilometres. Des Poke Personal Trainer, Jetts Fitness Torquayy

Your one stop plaster and paint shop BY GAIL CHRISFIELD

The location has changed and the settling in process is in full swing but it’s still business as usual at the new Torquay Interior Linings premises in the West Coast Business Park. AFTER six years in Baines Crescent, owner Matt Kacprzak moved his business six weeks ago. “We simply outgrew where we were,” he explained. “Our new factory and showroom give

us plenty of scope to expand our range of plastering products and to move into paint products, which we’ve only been dabbling in until now. “We stock the full range of Haymes paints for interior and exterior use, and offer a colour matching service to help people find the exact shade they’re after. “Many people who only think of us as plastering specialists might be surprised to learn that we also carry an extensive range of marble and granite tiles. “And of course we still stock a full range of plaster products, including plasterboard, cornices and other features, plastering tools and equipment.” Torquay Interior Linings also offer the largest range of Haymes paint on the Surf Coast, with a Haymes colour wall, and a sands colour wall. Kacprzak and his staff provide an installation service and are happy to recommend reputable local painters and

We even have an equipment hire service,” said Kacprzak. “With our bright new show room, we can now expand the retail side of our operations to appeal to local home owners and amateur renovators as well as professional builders and other tradies. “We are proudly locally owned, have operated in Torquay for the past 12 years and employ local staff and contractors.” Matt gives back to his community through a range of different sponsorships and thanks you for your continued support.

It’s time to step into life! BY ALISON DEANE

A dance movement similar to Zumba helps Forrest residents shake off their Mondayitis.

Fit and fun in Forrest SING AND dance your way to fitness is the message of Forrest and District Neighbourhood House. All those Mondayitis sufferers can take on Mondays with an active dance movement similar to Zumba. According to Neighbourhood house coordinator Gillian Brew class participants in the program – which is run in the morning – shake their stuff to fun upbeat music. If people want to give their bodies a rest but their vocal cords a work out, in the afternoon an a capella singing group gives people the opportunity to do just that. Participation costs $2 and no experience is necessary; – it’s a fun relaxed get-together to sing. For those not necessarily of the musical persuasion, or those who have triumphed over their Mondayitis and arrived at Thursday looking for something else to do,

a gentle exercise program run at 9.30am followed by Morning Tea ($2) makes for an appealing option. People also have the opportunity to sharpen up after morning tea with mind games run from 11-12: a great way to keep those grey cells in the pink and have some fun.

IF YOU’VE been wondering about the keen fitness fanatics working out at the crack of dawn and after dark along the Torquay foreshore this winter, they are Step Into Life. Step Into Life outdoor personal training programs cater for all ages and fitness levels and incorporate a flexible schedule to work towards personal fitness goals, all whilst enjoying the outdoor beauty our coastal environment has to offer. Personal trainer at the Torquay chapter Rose Constance runs cardio sessions involving endurance, interval and circuit work in the mornings, vibrant kickboxing and fitball sessions at night, and toning through free weights and rubberised resistance. “It’s more than just fitness, it’s a total health and fitness package,” she said. Ocean Grove’s Step Into Life trainer Penny Tomkinson said everyone involved feels good about themselves and have been getting great results. “It’s all about setting goals, and some are reaching goals they’d set for Christmas. People are running who thought they never would, and reaching distances they never thought possible.” Being a member of a group creates a sense of belonging, and Step Into Life members take on a variety of challenges and social events as they work toward their fitness goals – including the monthly Jan Juc to Bells Beach time trial followed by breakfast, Run Geelong, Relay For Life and Melbourne’s new City2Sea.

“I can’t believe the response we’ve been getting on social events. It’s very social, group members support each other, and we always welcome new people.” “There are a lot of new people to the area and it is amazing the friendships that have formed,” said Ms Constance. “To achieve a goal is not a casual thing, it’s a big commitment. It’s definitely a lot of fun, but also a good workout.” To start your summer fitness regime try a free trial session with Step Into Life, call (03) 8400 2410 (Rose Constance in Torquay) or (03) 5257 1676 (Penny Tomkinson in Ocean Grove) to chat about goals, and for more information see the website at www. stepintolife.com.au

Learning from the waves BY SAM SUENDERMANN GREAT OCEAN Road Surf Tours is a locally owned and operated surf school offering lessons and coaching for beginner through to advanced surfers. Located on the Surf Coast Highway next to the Caltex service station all surf instructors are highly qualified and extremely passionate about surfing. Owners Alistair and Rachel Lawson pride themselves on having the lowest student to instructor ratio on the Surf Coast and specialise in personalised coaching and daily surf tours. “This year has been busy for GOR Surf Tours as we have been nominated in the RACV Victorian Tourism Awards,� said Mr Lawson.

“As well as providing surf lessons and tours, our Next Level Surf Coaching, aimed at current surfers that who like to improve, has been a huge success. With a number of surfers coming back regularly to learn technique through video analysis, we have looked into new ways to focus on their surfing.� The Next Level Surf Coaching is now being offered in an exciting new product called Surf Squad, enabling surfers to attend monthly video analysis sessions over four months to improve their surfing technique. GOR Surf Tours also delivers the inaugural Surfing Australia ‘SurfGroms’ development program – put together by Surfing Australia and supported by companies such as Quiksilver and Vegemite – and is aimed at teaching 5-12 year olds core surfing skills,

fundamental ocean awareness and beach safety skills. As an accredited Surfing Australia Surf School GOR Surf Tours have adopted the program and coowner Rachel Lawson is looking forward to both of her kids being involved. “I love working with children and I am passionate and dedicated about enhancing children’s development,� she said. SurfGroms program will be run with small group sizes after school and on weekends from October 10. An information session will be held on Thursday 29th September at 6:30pm at the Surfing Victoria offices in Surf City Plaza, Torquay. For more information visit www.gorsurftours.com.au or call them free on 1800 SURF LESSONS (1800 787 353).

No bridge over troubled Springs Dear Editor, It is quite clear that the community around Bayshore Avenue in Clifton Springs do not want the added traffic that a bridge over the delicate Griggs Creek would bring about. It would be the democratic thing to do to scrap such an insane project. It is quite clear that the whole infrastructure around the neighbourhood does not provide for heavy construction vehicles. The streets are small, quiet, suburban streets, not wide freeways. This does not seem to be taken into consideration with the projected building of this no weight-limit bridge over the delicate ecology of the Griggs Creek. We have passed the era of ecological vandalism and are now in an era of enlightenment, where the environment, clean air and quality of life are of the utmost importance. It is quite clear that the whole suburb would be suffocating under the fumes of the traffic planned to take this new route. In other words, such a project is absolutely unacceptable on so many levels. Yvette Grandjean Clifton Springs

No netball again Dear Editor,

ANDREW KATOS MP

Member for South Barwon District

Please feel free to contact me to discuss any State Government concerns you may have. Electorate Office: 152 High St Belmont 3216 Phone: 5244 2288 Fax: 5244 2327 Email:andrew.katos@parliament.vic.gov.au

It is extremely disappointing to see that the senior netball competition for the Year 9/10/11 age group at Surfworld has been cancelled once again. I find it hard to believe that the Surf Coast Shire and Surfworld are unable to secure teams to enable our children to participate in this competition. The kids in this division have had such a fun time playing together over the past six years. They have been committed and eager to play each season. It is obvious that there has been little or no advertising done to encourage more teams to join and those that were committed to playing again in this division have just withdrawn their teams this week. What is the policy on teams being liable to play once they have committed to play in this division? Once a team shows an interest and enrols a team to play, there should be no further discussion about leaving the competition for the season. I am fed up with the attitude on a local level about no one being responsible and accountable in these situations. Does anyone realise how many boys and girls have been let down yet again, after thinking the serious netball was to be officially resumed this week? Does anyone really care? There needs to be a real shake up on the Surf Coast! The staff that we taxpayers are employing should take more interest in establishing youth programs that are actually functional. I am sure there are many parents out there who would sooner have their children involved in sport or other local recreational activities than at a loose end with nothing to do. It is a shame to think that after having these

Authorised by: A Katos 152 High St Belmont

children involved in netball for the past six years it has to come to a standstill. There appears to be no interest whatsoever in getting it up and running again for 2012 either. Shame, shame Surf Coast Shire! How about putting in a more concerted effort to assist the youth of this town. Annoyed Parent Jan Juc

Bike Lanes along 13th Beach Road Dear Editor Regarding the Bellarine Times article on “Bike Safety” and a bike lane from Ocean Grove to Apollo Bay and the environmental issues associated with widening Thirteenth Beach Road. This should not need to be sanctioned by Cadel Evans, but should be driven by the need to provide safe cycling for the hundreds of cyclists of all ages, local and visiting, who regularly ride on our roads. Recreational activities of surfers and fishermen have been catered for in the creation of car parks and infrastructure that has necessitated removal of vegetation. There are no existing safe cycling lanes to link Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads to Torquay. Growth of Armstrong Creek, Torquay and Ocean Grove will potentially lead to an increase in cyclists and vehicle traffic using Thirteenth Beach Road for recreational activities or as a short-cut to Torquay. Strategies should be developed to meet current and future needs. Regarding accidents reported by VicRoads, most responsible organisations work on risk management and minimising harm. There have been two cyclist fatalities in the Breamlea area. Are we saying we only take action once we have a statistic – which represents the death or incapacitation of a person? Then there is the compounding effect of such a tragedy on families and society such as long-term medical costs. Sand dunes can be stabilised; vegetation can be regenerated as occurs naturally over time. Minimise the risk for cyclists, because lives cannot be regenerated. Let’s have a great coastal cycle path so that all who enjoy this healthy recreation can use it safely. David Haack Ocean Grove

Jason likes Yvonne

An Yvonne pearler for Jason Dear Editor, A coupla guys and I got mom’s organ and piano on Sunday a week ago – felt lik robbers. I had found her neglected farmhouse in Peterborough one week ago. My brother and VIP Pest Control were trying to deal with termites eating her kitchen sink cupboard. The light in the hallway will not turn off. The state trustee has neglected it for two and a half years. He was quite rude on the phone. I have asked Slater and Gordon to represent me – another VCAT hearing is planned. If I win I can be her guardian. At yoga my friend Lindy played Schubert’s Serenade by piano roll on my old pianola in key of D. I tried to keep up on Mom’s sweet little Gors and Kallman sitting at right angles to it. After an hour and a half through the Otways in a trailer it was still in tune. No wonder it was so heavy. The music coincided stunningly at times. Wow. The organ lets you choose anything from jazz dixieland to classical and its stool has mum’s lists of hundreds of song titles she played. Unfortunately, there are a few deep scratches on the piano – Jamie would have done better but I kept him out of it – I’m trying to polish them away. I’ve got some evil chemicals to paint on the back in case. Becky has sent beautiful orchids in a basket – I only need to steal mum from the nursing home in Werribee and let her play. Yvonne Francis Apollo Bay

Golf club pricing problems Dear Editor, The Torquay Golf Club was once a very social club but is being destroyed by RACV pricing policy that is turning the clubhouse into a graveyard. As club members we have an expectation of some benefits, but unfortunately the RACV resort pricing policy for merchandise and over the counter sales, e.g., a can of beer $5.50, slab of Vic Bitter cans $66.00, club Logo T Shirts $89.00, has resulted in members taking their business elsewhere and the Club ultimately suffering. The RACV needs to institute club member discounts or pricing to attract the members back to the club. Resort prices should be for resort business. Bruce Groom

Dear Editor, I really like reading Yvonne Francis’ crazy streamof-consciousness ramblings in your ‘Letters to the Editor’ section. I especially like it when she gets two letters in one week! I can only guess that content is not edited before going to print so I look forward to reading this letter in next Wednesday’s edition as well as a couple more pearlers from Yvonne.

Tigers thank sponsors BY ALISON DEANE IT HAS been another great season of local football and by way of wrapping up the season the junior Torquay Tigers thanked naming rights sponsor McDonalds for their five years of support by presenting them with a framed club shirt. The long term partnership has assisted the club in keeping fees affordable and helped buy trophies and footballs for the 400 players involved. “The money they contribute to the club is really important for all the gear, polo shirts, and keeping the fees down, it’s just fantastic,” said Steve Cooper,

president of the junior club. Rising star and Under 14’s captain Jack Bennett of Christian College joined the club in the Under 12’s and has aspirations to play for the seniors. “It’s great McDonalds is sponsoring us and supporting the Torquay Football Club, we really appreciate it,” he said. MacDonald’s owner-operator Stuart Coombes is proud to support junior football and junior sports throughout the area. “It’s great to provide opportunities to young people as well as facilities and general support. It’s been a great season,” said Mr Coombes.

Tim Silverwood is stoked to be spreading the word on plastic to students across the Surf Coast. Pictured here with Charlie Johnson, Murphy Clifford and Georgia Toohey of St Therese Primary.

Silverwood inspires St Therese BY ALISON DEANE

MacDonald’s owner-operator Stuart Coombes accepts a signed jumper from rising star and captain of the Under 14’s Jack Bennett as thanks for MacDonald’s 5 years of support for the club.

SURFER AND environmentalist Tim Silverwood has been enlightening and motivating students across the Surf Coast to the plastic problem in our environment and oceans through his new film Bag It. Around 230 students from St Therese Primary School filled the Quiksilver Foundation auditorium on Friday, and were able to meet the man behind the campaign and view his movie. Gerard McCarthy, sustainability coordinator and Grade 3-4 teacher at St Therese, said the movie was a valuable tool to teach students about the importance of keeping plastic bag usage to a minimum. “The movie ties in with the values of St Therese Primary and the initiatives we have been learning about sustainability through our participation in the Australian Sustainable Schools Project,” said Mr McCarthy. “What we throw away in Torquay can end up in the ocean and may end up affecting animals and

people in other areas and countries.” Mr Silverwood’s beach clean-up initiative, Take 3, draws attention to the huge problem plastic – a non-biodegradable material – has been causing in our oceans and raises awareness as to how communities can make a difference. In partnership with Plastic Bag Free Torquay, the campaign was embraced by students of the Surf Coast. “It’s just logical to run the campaign here,” said Plastic Bag Free Torquay’s Stacie Bobele. “The kids are the future. They’ve loved the movie, and pick it up so quickly. Many then go home and encourage parents to make their household more in tune with environmental issues and lessen their impact.” After the movie, students took part in a question and answer session with Mr Silverwood. “The movie shows us that we need to keep our beaches clean. I was really surprised with the rubbish floating around in the ocean, it’s not very good for the animals,” said Murphy Clifford of Grade 4.

Changing stride BY HAMISH BROOKS

WE HAVE

MOVED

A LOCAL fundraising group is striding to a new venue for their Melbourne Cup event, which raises money for the Cancer Council. Event organiser Trish Curry said the Surf Coast Striders have been running the Melbourne Cup function for five years as part of efforts that have raised over $60,000 for the Cancer Council of Australia. “We started with sixty people at our first event and we’re up to about 100 now,” she said. “In previous years this fun filled event has taken place at the Rose restaurant but due to fire earlier in the year this is no longer possible. “We have secured a new venue at Crowne Plaza in Torquay in the Zeally Ballroom for this year’s event. “They offered us the same deal as the Rose,

and we have to thank Crowne for letting us host it there.” The afternoon runs from 12 pm to 5 pm and costs $40 per head for a two course meal, a complimentary drink upon arrival and three tickets in the major raffle. “When everyone gets there we also take their Melbourne Cup bets and go to the TAB to put them on,” Ms Curry said. “The rest of the races we run as sweeps, with all races shown on big screen TVs.” All the money raised on the day will have been calculated by the weekend of November 5 and 6, when another fundraising event for the cancer council, the Relay for Life (held at the Bob Pettit reserve in Jan Juc), will occur. Bookings can be made by ringing Trish Curry on 52613455 and tables can be made up for 6, 8 or ten persons.

Bless this pet BY ELEANOR WOODS EVERY spring, pets from the Surf Coast and Bellarine make a pilgrimage to St Wilfrids Anglican Church in Mount Duneed for the annual Blessing of the Animals Day. The blessing is conducted around the globe in remembrance of St Francis of Assisi’s love of all creatures. The event’s organiser, Anne Bartlett, said animals of all shapes, sizes and species were invited to be blessed by Reverend JoAnne Wells on Sunday, October 2. “It will be a load of fun. It is an amazing event ever year. People come from all over the Surf Coast and Bellarine to take part,” Mrs Bartlett said. “Loads of non-churchgoers come along, which is great. It’s just a fun day out with family, friends and pets. Bring a picnic and make a nice day of it.” Prizes and goodie bags are up for grabs and a range of activities can be enjoyed by all. A photographer will be there on the day as well as a veterinarian who will judge the animals on their cuteness and adorability. A sausage sizzle and stalls selling cakes and produce, garden plants and books will also entertain. The Blessing of the Animals is on Sunday October 2 at St Wilfrids Anglican Church, corner of Surfcoast Highway and Lower Duneed Road, from 11am until 3pm.

Industry Info

Realty success in Old Torquay BY ALISON DEANE A CROWD of over sixty people descended on Grandview Road Torquay last weekend for Local Hayden estate agent Steven Menegazzo’s first official auction. It was a successful day for all involved as the house was only one of four in the area on the day to sell at auction. The property in Old Torquay hit the market at $500,000, was passed in at $515,000 and after negotiations sold for $522,000 – proving good market conditions. “It ended up being an entry level price for Old Torquay, but we had some bidding there. It went really well, the weather held up for us and the vendor was very pleased,� said Mr Menegazzo. With eleven years in real estate in Melbourne,

By Enzo Raimondo, CEO REIV

Geelong and Torquay, Mr Menegazzo was very happy with the outcome of his first auction. “I’m trying to take a bit of a step forward, I wanted to give it a shot, and it was a very positive result.� With a customer service background as a hotel head concierge, Mr Menegazzo loves working in real estate as there is always something different going on every day. “It’s not just business, it’s about building relationships too. I’ve made a lot of friends through real estate, whom I often enjoy meeting for golf and get-togethers.� Mr Menegazzo is also leading the way by embracing modern media technologies to get new information out there. He puts together a video market report, embedded as a video link in emails to all his clients.

Who will be the best auctioneer in Australasia? Steve Menegazzo at his memorable first auction on Grandview Road Torquay.

Good time to spring into selling MANY PEOPLE believe spring is the best time of the year to sell a property. The pleasant weather makes houses seem more inviting and buyers seem to come out of the woodwork. “People enjoy driving around and looking at houses in spring – finding a new house is a pleasant outing rather than an onerous task,� says Louise Venter of LJ Hooker Torquay. “First impressions are important and may influence a prospective buyer’s decision to come into your house. Be objective, and take a look at your house from a buyer’s perspective. Aim to make your house inviting - make it bright and cheerful, in keeping with the season.�

The following ideas may make your home more appealing to spring buyers: • Check that your home looks attractive from the street and ensure it looks tidy and clean; • Put some fresh flowers in a prominent place; • Open curtains to let natural light into the rooms; • Clean windows, curtains and walls to make the house look clean and bright; • Clean out cupboards to make them seem bigger; • Hide pet toys, litter trays and food bowls; • Sweep paths and patios, and remove spider webs from the eaves; • Make any necessary minor repairs; • Make sure the house is tidy and uncluttered; and

• Make kitchens and bathrooms sparkling clean. You need to make your garden look its best. Plan ahead and plant some flowers so they will be in bloom when your house goes on the market. “Remember that people don’t buy a house and garden, they want to buy a dream. Make your house look like their dream by ensuring it is neat and tidy and the garden is healthy and cared for,â€? says Ms Venter “A house purchase may be a business transaction, but emotions can win or lose a sale. “If it is love at first sight, a potential buyer will bend over backwards to play down any shortcomings.â€?

THE AFL finals are not the only national competition to be staged in Melbourne this September. The NAB Australasian Real Estate Institutes’ Auctioneering Championship will be held in Melbourne between 19 and 21 September and the REIV has high hopes that a Victorian will win for the first time since 2006. After all, Melbourne is regarded as the auction capital of Australia. The heats and finals are open for the public to attend and will be held at the Sofitel Melbourne on Collins. The competition is the most prestigious auctioneering competition in Australia and New Zealand. Competitors represent the most professional, skilled and entertaining auctioneers that each state and New Zealand has to offer. Over two days, they will compete to determine the best auctioneer in Australia and New Zealand. Along with New Zealand, each state nominates the best two auctioneers through local auction competitions. To win, the auctioneer needs to conduct an auction that is both technically perfect and entertaining. The winner last year was Jason Andrew from Queensland. Victoria will be represented by Matthew Young from Buxton in St Kilda and Adrian Butera from Compton and Green. Matthew Young was Victoria’s best auctioneer this year and Adrian Butera held the title in 1998, 1999, 2001, 2004 and 2010. They will be hoping to match the efforts of other Victorian winners: Peter Batrouney in 1995, Peter Hawkins in 1997, Peter Kakos in 2003 and Justin Long in 2005.

Builders’ Goldmine Discovered in Geelong Man’s Block of Land

In Geelong, sloping, narrow and irregular blocks of land are particularly prone to increased site costs and expenses. Before you agree to buy or build, make sure you get your site costs upfront. Call Rohan and the team at GJ Gardner Homes on 5221 1447 to discuss your plans to build in Geelong. surfcoasttimes.com.au

Building & Construction

Tuesday 20 September 2011

Six star energy homes THE VICTORIAN Government has introduced a mandatory six star energy rating for all new homes. According to the six star energy booklet found at www.buildingcommission.com.au, six star energy rated homes use 24 per cent less energy for heating and cooling when compared to a five star home. Achieving a six star energy rating is easier than you think, and there are plenty of easy options outlined below. The key to achieving a home with a high energy rating is to consider the block of land and home orientation. It is always recommended to see your builder before buying a block of land, as a good design on a good block can achieve six stars with standard construction.

If the floor plan and the block of land maximise the position of living spaces to make the most of northerly sunlight through appropriate windows, this takes advantage of solar energy which can help achieve up to one star of your rating (www.buildingcommission. com.au). Insulation is important when building a six star home, as insulation can be located in the walls, ceilings and suspended floors. In addition, building materials are also an important consideration, including the colour of the roof. These aspects help the home stay warm in winter, and cool in summer. Up to 40 per cent of your homes heating and cooling can be lost through windows, which play a huge role when achieving a six star rated home.

It is important to consider the size, type and placement of windows, with many glazing options available. Not only is having a six star home good for the environment, but it is also a great way to save money on the rising cost of bills. Other considerations that don’t contribute to a homes energy rating, but can significantly contribute to reducing bills include choosing heating and cooling products that are zoned, meaning you can only heat or cool particular areas of the home. In addition, other products to reduce your carbon footprint include water saving taps, water saving shower heads, water efficient toilets, LED lighting, plus there are plenty of solar energy options available. Hotondo Homes builders are able to achieve an energy rated home that will fit the new government regulations. They have a range of over 90 floor plans to choose from, designed with energy efficiency in mind. Every home is different and requires different things to reach the six star energy rating. Based upon this, each floor plan is flexible, and can be modified to maximise energy efficiency wherever possible. Even with the new six star energy regulations, your local Hotondo Homes builder is able to build you your dream home without compromising on comfort, style and appearance. To find your local builder, contact 1800 677 156 or visit www.hotondo.com.au The house and plan of a six star rated home. Making use of sunlight through north facing windows is enough to gain a property one star.

Jazz flavour added to festival BY HAMISH BROOKS THE QUEENSCLIFF Music Festival has jazzed up its line up with a second round announcement of acts, which includes â€œĂźber cool jazzsterâ€? Sarah McKenzie. The 23-year-old pianist, vocalist and composer has enjoyed a spectacular rise through the Australian jazz scene characterised by frequent appearances at major venues like Bennett’s Lane, The Paris Cat, and at major jazz and blues festivals. She has played gigs in locations as eclectic as her music, the most curious being on a two-week

cruise through the Kimberley aboard True North. “There were 30 passengers and 20 crew on board,� said Ms McKenzie. “Every passenger paid $20,000 dollars for the experience and I had to play for an hour every night, and other than that I got to enjoy the tour and the beautiful gorges we travelled through. “It was pretty amazing up there. It was some of the most inspiring landscapes I’ve ever seen and not being able to use mobile phones or the internet really freshens up the mind.� She wrote a couple of pieces straight after the trip that were inspired by the landscape she travelled through, and said she draws inspiration

from all experience and styles. “I don’t want to put myself in a jazz box. I really like looking at how we can take popular music and add a jazz flavour to it,� she said. “The jazz musicians of the 1950s were all playing the music of the day then and I think lots of current jazz musicians of today are still playing that music. “The real challenge is to keep it fresh.� Ms Mckenzie has performed regularly with her mentor James Morrison, sung backing vocals for Michael Buble and headlined both the Stonnington Jazz and Melbourne International Jazz Festivals.

While she said that playing in little laneway jazz clubs in Melbourne is a great experience for the intimate environment they create, she prefers playing festivals because of their size, atmosphere and the large numbers of musicians that are present. “I’m really looking forward to the Queenscliff Music Festival because it’s exciting to be part of something big. “There are lots of other musicians about to mingle with and I find the atmosphere of festivals really relaxed, so I probably prefer playing at them.� The Queenscliff Musical festival runs from November 25-27. See www.qmf.net.au for more.

‘Strap’ me in! “There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around...� Just the sort of words that instantly sprang to mind whilst drinking the new GSM offering from Yalumba – ‘The Strapper’, an exciting new wine they’ve released that will certainly cause a buzz once people start trying it, but more of that later. In wine circles, GSM is a reference to a red blend comprising Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre (also known or referred to as Monastrell, or Mataro). It is most commonly seen in the Rhone Valley in France and known as a ‘Cotes Du Rhone’ blend. In Australia, the blend is synonymous with the Barossa, an authentic ‘rustic’ style that sits easily with those that love an interesting red with plenty of depth, savoury complexity and plenty of ‘gluggability’ which of course means it slides down easily. Here are some terrific examples from ‘Mother’ Barossa worth a look...

2010 Yalumba ‘The Strapper’ Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro ($20) I must say, Yalumba have another hit on their hands here with this new release following on from the outrageous success they’ve enjoyed with ‘The Scribbler’ wine that I’m sure you’re all aware of. The new ‘The Strapper’ is a ‘GSM’ blend (Grenache for fragrance, Shiraz for richness and spice, and Mataro for earthiness and rusticity) that dishes up a hearty fleshy young red that retains some really nice savouriness and earthy complexity without going for overtly sweet/ ripe fruitiness. It’s everything you want from a red when you’re looking for that comforting, mouth filling generosity you can only get from the Barossa – a red exuding hearty-yet-rustic, rich, dark berry fruits, suppleness, savouriness, and earthiness. It’s a winner that ticks every box for wine style, packaging and price point. Get on it!

2009 Penfolds Bin 138 Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre ($30) Without a doubt the best release of this wine to date and so more-ish to drink! Even winemaker Peter Gago is more than usually excited about the wine. He rates it as his best yet and his enthusiasm is quite contagious as this wine is brimful of dark black fruit flavours, richness, complexity and incredible vibrancy and stylish suppleness.

Local music’s strong pulse BY ALISON DEANE THE VOICE of Geelong, the Surf Coast and the Bellarine, 94.7 The Pulse, is excited to announce the return of their free summer concert series. Live at the Pulse is on again from this October 7th featuring up-and-coming local bands. Live at the Pulse gigs run from 6pm-8pm every Friday and showcase three different acts in the studio foyer on the corner of Market and Little Ryrie Streets in Geelong. After an immensely successful first season, interest has been growing with word spreading far, Melbourne bands getting involved and sponsors and audiences on the increase. Station manager Gary Dalton said it is a unique opportunity to hear little-known acts who don’t get airtime on the commercial stations.

“Community radio plays an important role. We serve local musicians, we give them a break and Live at the Pulse gives them exposure.� Live at the Pulse gets across a wide range of music from rock to classical, and sound engineer students mix it down to be broadcast live to air on 94.7, complete with band interviews. “Audiences can enjoy the gigs for free here at the station, or tune in and relax at home on a Friday night. “The best way for local musicians to get involved is to pop into the station, contact us on 03 5222 5947, or via our website.� Meanwhile, the September Pulse ‘Subscribeathon’ is gaining momentum, receiving over 100 new subscriptions last week. For more information or to subscribe, check out at www.947thepulse.com

2008 Spinifex Barossa Valley ‘Espirit’ Shiraz Grenache Mourvedre ($35) Spinifex wines, and winemaker Pete Schell in particular, are the darlings of the ‘New’ Barossa set coming through that are able to capture the essence of Barossa reds without succumbing to the over the top richness, and the big, one dimensional upfront fruity sweet (read boring) reds that predominate the landscape. Their wines speak of genuine regional complexity and savouriness. Yes, they’re still full bodied wines of great stature but there’s a harmonious quality to the wines that also strongly focus on balance, weight, texture and a ‘sense of place’. The 2008 showcases lifted red fruits and spice aromatics on the nose with medium bodied fruit cake richness and savouriness fleshing out the palate...nice. The soon to be released 2009 version is even better I hear, so keep your eyes peeled...

HAVING RECENTLY released her latest EP The Guava Tree, Laura Hill is heading our way for two performances at the upcoming Anglesea Music Festival. She will be performing a number of chilled-out tunes alongside her band The Tuesday Bandits, after having previously toured with the likes of Ash Grunwald, Tim Rogers and James Reyne. Having grown up on the coast in South Australia, Hill’s music reflects the laid back nature of life around the sea. “Recording The Guava Tree felt to me like a summer vacation. The recording was such an exciting, natural process. We worked together to produce stripped back acoustic tunes to energetic full-band tracks,� Hill said. After launching her debut release Over My Shoulder in February 2010, Hill embarked on back-to-back national tours. During this period, Hill produced film clips for the Odd Socks and By My Side singles, which were featured on the ABC’s RAGE program.

Spring fair Freshwater Creek’s Steiner School annual Spring Fair open day will be held on October 22 between 10am and 3pm. On offer will be pony rides, live music, homemade food, and a biodynamic barbeque. There will also be guest speakers as well as an introduction to Steiner curriculum. The event will take place at 52 McIntyres Road, Freshwater Creek. For more information contact the school on 03 5264 5077.

Laura Hill and The Tuesday Bandits will be performing songs from her latest EP during her two shows at the Anglesea Music Festival.

The constant factor in Hill’s music is the coastal sound and she says this is always a key thought when she recording and performing. “Most of all (when recording The Guava Tree), I really wanted to capture the musical flavours needed to make a refreshing summer cocktail.� And aside from performing music, what would

Hill’s perfect summer involve? “Can you get a combi van with wings?� The Anglesea Music Festival is being held from October 14-16. Laura Hill will perform on October 15 and 16. For more information about show times and prices visit www. angleseamusicfestival.com.au

Inking the shed Loud, hook-laden and hard to ignore, Melbourne’s hottest new rockers are heading to Drydale’s Potato Shed for one night only on 23rd September. Presented by Crash Course Productions, Red Ink come fresh from their national Rock the Schools Tour and will be joined by fantastic local bands including The Rustys, Kyle Taylor, Hannah Stolz, Altitude and The Warning. Gaining new audiences everywhere they play, Red Ink have exploded onto the Melbourne music scene and their latest single What My Friends Say has been enjoying extensive national airtime after appearances at festivals like Peats Ridge, Hot BBQ and Playground Weekender. Fast earning a reputation for raw and provocative anthems, Red Ink are climbing the international rock ladder at lightning speed. According to The AU Review Red Ink’s live show drips power and is rawer than a freshly beached whale, but they’re still lyrically strong and tight on stage.

Big wrap for Lorne THE INAUGURAL Lorne Festival of performing arts has been hailed as a “phenomenal” success by punters, locals, performers and organisers. The festival was an initiative of the Lorne Business and Tourism Association (LBTA) and according to their president, Chris Tully, Lorne was jumping last weekend to the sights and sounds of 50s and 60s Culture by the Sea, the theme for the festival. “The festival exceeded expectations with over 1,000 tickets sold to 16 ticketed events across seven venues around Lorne – a great result for a first year festival,” he said. “The success of the inaugural festival is a testament to the passion and commitment of the locals in our town and sends a strong message about the range and diversity Lorne has to offer.” Festival director Monique Harvey, a highly experienced veteran of the Spiegeltent and numerous international arts festivals, was full of praise for the acts that participated in the inaugural festival. An opening night cabaret, combined with the swinging beats and moves of Mikelangelo and the Tin Star featuring St Clare, The Go Girl Gadget Go Go Dancers and the cheeky burlesque of Lilikoi Kaos, Jessamae St James and Circus Trick Tease, set the tone for a cranking festival by the sea.

Local Lorne act The Beachniks brought their own style and interpretation of beach culture to the inaugural Lorne Performing Arts festival.

Local acts The Beachniks, Kissing Harriet, Victoriana Gaye, Jessie Upton and Ghost Mutt all brought their own style and interpretation of beach culture with them and delighted audiences with their wonderful performances which connected with locals and visitors alike.

Christos Raskatos regaled audiences at the Lorne Fisheries Co-op with evocative poetry and stories of Lorne and his travels around the globe. Oysters were provided to guests upon arrival. To keep in touch with what’s happening all year round in Lorne, sign up at www.lovelorne.com

Self-expression inspired by environment BY HAMISH BROOKS LORNE institution Qdos will exhibit intricate and interesting collaborative sculptures influenced by the avante-garde Japanese Ikebana style of Sogetsu. Ceramicist and Gallery curator Grame Wilkie has been facilitating the exhibition at Qdos since 2004 and said he is blown away by the work that emerges after the collaborative efforts of fellow artist Christopher James. “It’s in its eighth year and it’s proved to be a very

popular exhibition over the years because it makes use of found natural items,� he said. “I work in ceramics so produce the sculptures and then Chris comes down and sees what he wants to use and incorporates it with other materials found in the environment. Ikebana is the Japanese art of using botanical material as a means of responding to the environment and achieving aesthetic self-expression. Mr James is an ikebana artist/practitioner of the Sogetsu School and holds the Jonin Somu teaching certificate.

He has recently returned from three months study at the Sogetsu Headquarters in Tokyo having been awarded a scholarship by the Norman and Mary Sparnon Endowment Foundation. Mr James has lived on the Surf Coast since his childhood and finds his ikebana is inspired by the natural beauty of the coast and hinterland. Over the past eight years, the exhibitions have involved a number of ikebana artists as well as the team at the Qdos Studio. Because of the natural fit between ikebana and ceramics these exhibitions

have contributed to the artistic development of all the artists involved. Mr James has participated in numerous demonstrations and exhibitions in Melbourne as well as at Qdos Arts Lorne, regional Victoria, Sydney, and Tokyo. He was a member of the team that created Five Elements Water at the National Gallery of Victoria, under the direction of Mr Tetsunori Kawana. The 8th Annual Sogetsu Sculpture Exhibition runs Sunday 25 September - 9 October at Qdos in Lorne, www.qdosarts.com

New hub for artists BY ALISON DEANE

In the Ikebana style of Sogetsu, artists use materials found in the environment to achieve a level of aesthetic self expression.

A NEW ART hub opened last week as part of the Made in Geelong project aiming to contribute to the renewal of the city and situate the area as an outstanding place of arts and culture. The space at 174-176 Ryrie Street is the first of its size, and showcases the talents of nine local artists, whom will be both exhibiting and working. Portarlington artist Jenny Macaulay paints watercolour seascapes and large acrylics at her home studio and said the initiative was a fantastic opportunity for any local or home artist. “It’s great to be adding to the art and culture of

Something tasty...

the region. I’d certainly suggest it to local artists to get involved.� Committee member Renee Work said the project is open to all artists and photographers who have a vision and are keen to propose their project. “The initiative aims to improve the atmosphere of the city, and by reinvigorating vacant spaces, will also assist landlords. “We would love to welcome aboard any artists from Geelong and nearby regions, as well as volunteers, tradespeople and landlords� said Ms Work. The new Made in Geelong art hub will be open every day of the week. To find out more about the initiative, go to www.madeingeelong.org

Flower paradise is just next door

ReACT film fest THIS WEEK the ReACT Film Festival showcases the skills of students from 15 schools across Geelong at a gala presentation event. Students from all settings wrote, filmed and edited films and will get together to see their work on the Geelong Performing Arts Centre’s big screen at 6pm on Wednesday September 21. ReACT has been touring the Barwon South West region for nine years, and is a major curriculum initiative that focuses on developing student’s filmmaking skills through workshops. “Media is the language of today... and young people are so quick to master new technology,” said ReACT creator Michael Green of Drift Media. “ReACT is a great way for students to get their work onto the big screen, and in front of an audience made up of their peers and local community.”

Wildflower and art show organiser Chris Morrissey gets amongst the spring blooms in the Anglesea Heath.

THE ANGLESEA and Aireys Inlet Society for the Protection of Flora and Fauna will host its annual Wildflower and Art Show this weekend, September 24 and 25, at Memorial Hall in McMillan St, Anglesea. Memorial Hall will be full of varied and colourful blooms, including many orchids, while the art show will display quality works primarily based upon the natural world. Displays of other native plants and flowers are included, as are sales of local plants, arts and crafts and guided wildflower walks and bus tours. Show organiser Chris Morrissey said many Surf Coast residents are not aware that they live next door to one of Australia’s richest sites for plant diversity. “Its (Anglesea Heath’s) reputation amongst plant lovers extends beyond the local area to the international stage with many foreign visitors sometimes surprising locals with

their knowledge. “It (the show) provides a stunning showcase for the natural diversity of our local area – the Anglesea Memorial Hall will be bursting with a dizzying array of varied and colourful blooms, including many orchids.” In past year the show has attracted visitors from all over Australia, primarily because the Anglesea heath lands are of international significance. “There’s something for everyone, whether you’re young or not so young, an avid plant lover or just looking for something different to do on the weekend,” Ms Morrissey said. Entry prices are $5 for adults and $2 for concession card holders, while children under the age of 12 are admitted free of charge. Guided wildflower walks and bus tours are included in the entry fee. The proceeds of the show are used for land conservation purposes. For more information visit www.angair. org.au

A rocking Blowout in town BY ALISON DEANE THE FREIGHT-train of sound that is Macondo Blowout is heading to the Torquay Hotel on October 15th, and if you haven’t caught these guys yet, you’re in for a surprise. After hitting the road to send off the ski season at Mt Hotham, the group are heading back to Melbourne before returning to the Surf Coast for their third Rockin’ Revolution concert of the series, with special guests Seedy Jeezus. Macondo Blowout is 100 per cent energy, with some moody minor tones putting an eerie edge on garage skate punk rock. They’re loud enough to feel. The guys add addictive harmonies and backups you’ll want to sing along to, and throw in a couple of covers. The band played their first gig under the name Jesus Astronaut, but drummer Mick Pitman said they chose their current moniker from the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explosion responsible for the huge oil spill on the Louisiana coastline in April 2010, which was colloquially referred to as the Macondo Blowout. “We’re environmentally aware, we chose the name to get people to think, it’s kind of cool ‘cause it’s got meaning,” said Mr Pitman. Having played in bands for many years, the

highlight for the guys so far was getting together 18 months ago to form the new band, here on the Surf Coast. “Although we take our music seriously, we’re definitely all about having a laugh and not taking ourselves too seriously, we do this for fun. “We’ve done some sweet gigs so far and have been well received, but now with some blistering new tunes we’re looking to up the ante on these coming shows. “When we get back from the tour, we’ll be recording our first album, and have a CD out in about three months.” Macondo Blowout want to generate some decent local music momentum with their Rockin’ Revolution series, aspiring to help local bands get their sound out there, and to continue to bring good bands to the area from Melbourne. “We’re excited to get the local music scene happening, and looking forward to adding some more gigs to our summer schedule.” With inspiration drawn from boards, bikes and going fast, their sound has been likened to Pantera, Monster Magnet, The Dead Kennedys, Black Sabbath, Motorhead and Kyuss. Saturday 15th October at The Torquay Hotel 9pm till late, tickets $10. For more information on Macondo Blowout and future gigs, check out their website at www.myspace.com/macondoblowout

With Venus visiting your career zone, things are looking up at work. If you dress to impress and maximise your people skills you’ll make fabulous headway. Compromise is the key to peaceful professional partnerships, as you offer the olive branch of peace. For some singles, Cupid comes knocking at the office door. Who said work and romance don’t mix?

Rams are feeling restless, but don’t let unpredictable moods and bossy behavior alienate you from others. With Venus and Saturn in your relationship zone, calm cooperation is the clever way to go. Attached Aries - sharing common interests with your partner is highlighted this weekend. Single rams – keep looking for a lover who is responsible and mature.

Are you feeling insecure about a relationship? The more tightly you hold onto someone, the more they’ll try to escape. With gung-ho Mars in your money zone until November 11 aim to be financially proactive. Don’t sit around waiting for cash to magically fall into your lap. The weekend suits socialising at home, as the sun and Venus boost your entertaining skills.

As Saturn moves through your sign until October 2012 it exaggerates your perfectionist streak. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes! As birthday great Sophia Loren said “It’s better to make mistakes than to play it safe. Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full life.” It’s also time to update your appearance but remember that true beauty comes from within.

Be on alert for a case of the ‘green-eyed monsters’ early in the week, as tricky Venus/Pluto aspects aggravate your jealous side. And are there any bad habits you should be giving up? With Saturn still moving through your wellbeing zone, it’s time to be more disciplined about your health and fitness. Out with the cream cakes and in with the carrot juice.

Are you a courageous lion or a cautious cub? With dynamic Mars marching through your sign from September 19 until November 11 it’s time to sparkle and shine as you take on challenges, and your confidence and creativity soar. Be inspired by Christopher Reeve born on September 25 “Either you stay in the shallow end of the pool, or you go out in the ocean.”

Are you ready for a total spring-clean? Scorpios have a tendency to hold onto people, possessions, emotions and old habits. This week provides the perfect opportunity for a physical and emotional detox, as you purge your life of things that have passed their used-by date. On Sunday, use your powerful Pluto energy to influence people in positive ways.

As assertive Mars moves into your love zone, your partner will demand more of your time and attention. Too much togetherness can drive individualistic Aquarians nuts. But too much independence can undermine your relationship too. It’s equinox week, so try to walk the middle path. Singles – don’t be dazzled by appearances. Look for a lover who is also a friend.

With mighty Mars moving into your communication zone, you’re motivated to mix and mingle; chat and circulate even more than usual. Resist the urge to be the neighbourhood nosey-parker though. Garrulous gossip could get gregarious Geminis into gigantic trouble this week so be discreet, choose your words wisely - and don’t jump to hasty conclusions.

Saturn is demanding financial restraint from yours truly. Spending sprees are temporarily banned, as you concentrate on balancing your budget and paying off debt. With a disciplined approach and a pinch of patience you can turn things around. The sun and Mercury are in your sign, so you’re in the mood to research a topic that has always fascinated you.

With Mars charging through your adventure zone until November 11 you’re in the mood to explore as you broaden your physical and mental horizons via travel, study or self-examination. A dream may seem a long way off but hang in there. Saturn is testing your mettle. How badly do you want your dream – and are you willing to work hard to get it?

Are loved ones, friends or work colleagues placing unrealistic demands on you? Don’t allow yourself to be manipulated or cajoled into doing something you really don’t want to do. It’s time for fragile fish to finally face up to bullying behavior. You need to forge your own individual path, as you learn to say the hardest word of all for a Pisces – NO!

CELTIC GLASS

Stoked to be glassy MICHAEL STOKES has been working in the glass trade for over 15 years and in that time has been able to gain valuable experience that enhances what he can offer his clients. Three months ago Stokes decided to start his own business, Celtic Glass, which services the Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast. “I had been working for another company for a few years and thought it was time for a change,� Stokes said. “I decided to go out on my own and now operate my own business.� Celtic Glass offers windows and shower screens but specializes in glass splashbacks. “Splashbacks are our main focus but shower screens

come a close second,� Stokes said. Stokes’ reliability and use of top quality materials ensures that his customers are left satisfied and with the knowledge that they got the best possible service. The company operates out of Torquay and Stokes makes the most out of using local knowledge and products. “We are locally based and run and I try to use all local materials,� Stokes said. Stokes offers affordable products with competitive prices set to match those of similar trades. Celtic Glass operates during the week from Monday to Friday. Michael Stokes can be contacted any time between the hours of 8am and 6pm on 0415 550 233.

Couta glory BY LUKE GRIFFITHS QUEENSCLIFF has broken a 36-year premiership drought and secured only its second Bellarine Football League premiership after it defeated Geelong Amateurs by 39 points on Saturday. In what was Queenscliff’s coach Heath Jamieson’s final match at the helm, there was understandable jubilation from both players and supporters on Spring Creek Reserve after the final siren. “These things (premierships) don’t come around very often and to be able to finish my time as Queenscliff coach with a premiership is unbelievable. Obviously this is the perfect way to go out,” Jamieson said. “We had worked really hard to get into the grand final and there was massive hype before the game, so to be able to handle that pressure and win the flag is a massive effort by the boys. Saturday was just reward for months and months of hard work.” Things didn’t look good for the Coutas during the first quarter, with Amateurs having the majority of the play and a 20 point lead at the first break. But Jamieson rallied his troops and they duly responded to kick five goals to one in the second term. Queenscliff again dominated the third quarter, kicking four goals to one. Amateurs kicked six goals in a high scoring last quarter but failed to make much of a dent in the lead with the Coutas kicking five themselves. It was the lack of consistency across the match that ultimately cost Amateurs the match – they kicked 12 of their 13 goals

in two quarters. The loss was Amateurs’ third consecutive grand final defeat. Ash Medallist Dylan Chaplin-Burch kicked six for the victors, which included his 100th goal for the season, while Couta midfielder Daniel Gibbs was awarded best on ground. Travis Robertson was the Amateurs best player and league best and fairest runnerup Jason Tom kicked four goals. Queenscliff was abuzz Saturday night with the clubrooms filled with more than 1,000 supporters and it appears the celebrations won’t be finishing any time soon. “The celebrations have been big and they’ll continue to be big. I think we’ve got something organised for every day this week, so there’ll be a few sore heads by the end of the week.” Queenscliff won the Corio Bay Health Group Under 18 B Grade premiership on Saturday, defeating St Mary’s second side by 56 points. The Coutas led at 20 points at quarter time and were never threatened during the match.

Surf Coast FC blitzes junior soccer finals SURF Coast FC had its finest day in a decade of junior competition last weekend. With six grand finals played on Saturday, Surf Coast made it into five of them and won four – the under 12 boys, both the under 13 boys and girls and the under 18 girls. The cream on the cake was seeing three Surf Coast FC players win their age group Association fairest and best awards – Minnie Feakes (U18s Girls), Jordie Gibson (U13s Boys) and Erindi Mankolli (U12s Boys). A number of Surf Coast players also won their age group Association Golden Boot awards. Several magic moments went into Surf Coast Football Club legend during the finals series, including young gun Amy Suessmeier’s late winning goal for the Under 13s girls, Jordy Gibson’s stunning strike levelling the match on the final siren, and Bec McGlinchey’s missile goal for the Under 18s girls that seared into the back of the net before the keeper had time to blink. With the Surf Coast FC men consolidating their position in the Victorian Provisional 1 League, and making finals in the local competition, it has been a year to savour by the Coast.

“it’s never over until the last whistle blows”. Corio Bay players are to be commended on their tenacity for attacking the ball and their ability; they scored the first goal and kept a number of Surf Coast players battling for the ball. Just when Corio Bay looked assured of taking out the match in the last remaining minutes, Jordon Gibson stepped up to the mark and booted a superb goal from nearly mid-field which equalised the score. With scores level at full-time, a penalty shoot out followed, with Surf Coast coming out the winners.

U13 Boys Division 1: Surf Coast 2 – 1 Corio Bay (penalty shoot-out) In a game fitting for a grand final, the Surf Coast boys played out the phrases “never give up” and

U12 Boys: Surf Coast 1 – 0 Surf Coast Yellow In what was a tight grand final the Surf Coast Blues prevailed with a 1-0 win. The goal came in the first half by a bit of

U13 Girls: Surf Coast Blue 1 – 0 Surfside Both teams fought hard for the ball and those elusive goals, but Surf Coast were victorious in the end 1-0. Amy Suessmeir kicked the winning goal just in the knick of time. Great team work from all the girls and strong leadership from the Captain Coby McInerney. Well defended and terrific attacking from all the girls. We all really enjoyed the season and well done on winning the U13 Girls Soccer Grand Final.

James Shanhun and Brodric Von Brandestein congratulate Jordon Gibson (middle) for winning U13 Best and Fairest Season 2011 and Best On Field U13 Finals.

fantastic team play with a number of passes and a clean finish by the league golden boot winner, Kalen Webb. Congratulations to Erindi Mankolli who was voted best on ground and also won the Best and fairest for the U12 division 2 boys.

Another great weekend for the Waves THE U13 Girls and U15 Boys played in their respective grand finals, and the Senior Men and Women played in cut throat semi-finals at Shell Road Reserve. For a small, relatively young club this has been an exceptional season. Unfortunately the U13 Girls were unable to bring the trophy back to Ocean Grove but the U15 Boys were triumphant with a strong 4-0 victory over Lara. The Division 2 Men’s semi was a lot tighter with the teams locked at 1-1 after 90 minutes. Extra time saw the Waves take the lead, only for Surf Coast to equalise in the last 30 seconds of the match. It was 2-2 after extra time so went into a penalty shootout. The Waves maintained their composure scoring five penalties with Surf Coast missing one to give the Waves the grand final berth. Grand finals for the Men and Women are held next weekend.

been the class team of the competition all season. Some great finishing in front of goal and strong defence secured the premiership to add to the league title. Goal scorers were Jacob Nicholson with three and Ben Zebic with one. The Waves also took out other honours with Ben Zebic awarded the league best & fairest and Isaiah Mujica best in the grand final. U13 Girls: Surfside 0 - 1 Surf Coast Blue Despite having the better chances, the Waves went down in a tense encounter at Hume Reserve. Attacking strongly in the second half, the Waves couldn’t score against a packed defence. Surf Coast really only had the one chance to score, but it was enough to decide the match. The Waves have had an outstanding season winning the League Championship by 8 points.

Waves U13 Girls all smiles despite a grand final loss following a fantastic season.

Caitlin Picket was awarded League Best & Fairest and Isabel Greer player of the match in the grand final. The junior season has now concluded as we move into next week’s senior grand finals.

Senior Men: Surfside 3 - 2 Surf Coast (penalty shoot-out) The Waves held their nerve to win 5-4 in the penalty shootout to move into next week’s grand final. Goals scorers were Nic Hargraves (pen) and Steffan Hargraves.

Surfside 6 - 2 Barwon In what was a repeat of last year’s semi final, the senior women moved into the grand final with a convincing 6-2 win over a spirited Barwon. Surfside came out of the blocks quickly with Molly Strano scoring well and then Maddy Bennett putting the Waves two up. Lara Williams slotted in a third to take in a three nil lead at half time. Surfside came out into the second half full of purpose and quickly took control of the game, with some neat one touch football, driven forward by their skipper Emma Moran, quickly grabbing two more goals through Chelsea Taylor and Cassie Hynes. Barwon pulled two goals back with an inspired free kick from Anne Siri Salte and another from fellow midfielder Marnie Harrington. The Waves were dominant and finished the game off the way it had started with goals from Bennett and Williams to make it a convincing win for the Waves. A great final game for Kiwi Nicole Wakefield as she departs Australia to return home to New Zealand before next week’s final. It will be just the second grand final appearance for Surfside Women. Geelong 1 - 0 Breakwater Eagles A buzz was lingering throughout both teams as they dealt with blustery conditions at Stead Park for the second Women’s semi-final. Defensively, Breakwater were very hard for Geelong to break down but through some good ball movement Geelong created many chances, albeit without converting them. This week saw a real team effort. The only goal was scored by Milly Livesay, a fine effort on her behalf since she was tagged by no less than two players at any one time. Geelong now look forward to their second grand final in consecutive years and will be aiming to make up for last season’s Grand Final disappointment. The Surfside-Geelong Women’s Grand Final will be at Hume Reserve, Saturday 24 September at 3pm.

Senior Women: Surfside 6 - 2 Barwon The Waves proved that they were a class unit with a fantastic performance under immense pressure in the race for the title. The Waves attacking strike power proving too much for a spirited Barwon team. Good luck in the grand final girls. U15 Boys: Surfside 4 – 0 Lara Another great performance by the boys who have

Waves set for grand final

The triumphant U15 Team celebrate their grand final victory.

Sandy Talbot had his second win for the week with 41 points and John McLachlan won B Grade with 38 points. In the ladies competition we had three grades.

NTPs were won by Barry Coleman, Graham Rees, Sue Britnell and Marcus Kelley.

putting was awarded to Ainsley McCallum. Neil Twaits returned to form winning A grade with 60 nett on Wednesday, Ian Adams took out B grade with 59 nett and in C grade Shayne Hope (The Sands) won with 55 nett, what a bandit! The NTPs were won by Byron Landeryou, Ron Robertson, Noel Phyland and Peter Hehir. Pat Comack and Nick Ivens had an eagle. The Jackpot on the 8th was won by ‘Rotten’ Ron Haeberle. Ron was heard bragging about his ball going well past the hole before spinning back 6 foot to claim the prize… there’s a lot of spin in that story! Weekend results Saturday turned on the best day of the week and the scoring showed just how good the day was. Whilst the hot soup did not go out, our beverage-cart girl Annaliese was busy refreshing golfers with cold drinks. A Grade was taken out by David Stephens with +8, B was won by Ken Ballard with +7 showing all of his playing partners how to win again. C Grade was won by morning player

Danny Guiney with +7 who for a change was saying the afternoon players had the best of conditions. Just to show everyone up D Grade winner was Ian Colwell with +11. The NTPs were won by Ken Scott, Greg Giampiccolo, Paul French and the Jackpot was scored by Michael Nemeth. Yet again there were another three Eagles from Henry Kelly, Bruce Ditchburn and Angelo Facchini. Ladies competition was a close one and the winner with +6 on count-back was Ainsley McCallum from Marg Joyner and yes they were still talking afterwards in the clubhouse enjoying a drink. NTPs went to Lyn Brady, Deb Shoesmith & Jenni Cottrill. On Sunday, Wayne Nitschke had a fantastic score of 49 points and Bernadette Oliver won with 42pts. Golf shop Brad Lamb will be leaving us this week to focus on his coaching, don’t worry, you can still book a lesson with him at the club. Member, Dave Kilmartin joins the team, we are excited!

A week of good weather and good golf, maybe, just maybe the sun is returning to Portarlington. On Tuesday the men enjoyed the first of the good days with a Stableford round. Dereck Wright certainly enjoyed the welcome warmth with his 43 points. Other grade winners were, A Grade, Simon Grundell 41 points, Jim Fisher claimed B Grade with 42 and in C Grade Bruce Whalley, 39. NTPs went to Matt Salter, Clifford Dean and Bill Archer. On Wednesday, the ladies played the fun but deadly Stableford Multiplier that can make or break friendships! Staying friends probably for life will be Helen Barry and Marian Keskinen who scored the most incredible round of 101, yes you read right, 101 points. They blew away the field winning by 15 from Barbie Schwarz and Judy Kiely who had a very decent score of 86. Third place went to Jill Barker and Angela Foott still scoring well, 81. NTP’s went to Kath Wright and Marian Keskinen while the money holes went to Judy Kiely and Angela Foott. On Thursday, another great day for golf had the

bumper field playing Stableford. Jack Taylor topped the list with 43, while a major battle ensued with 3 more on 41. Peter Taylor was victorious on count-back from Peter Ward and Henry Wasiak. Arthur Dimble made the day worthwhile collecting 15 balls from the Eagles nest for his 2 great shots on the Par 4, 8th. Eleven-hole players also scored well with Dick Trezise winning with 44 after adjustment. On to members Saturday with a great field playing a Stroke round. The scores indicated just how nice it is playing in perfect conditions. Andrew Nyga played a smashing round to return 64 nett, claiming trophy of the day and D grade, well done Andrew. A grade winner was Terry Powell, 71, B Frank Carter, also playing a terrific round, 64 nett, and C Grade Shane O’Reilly 67. NTP’s were Ian Gillett, Neville McPherson and Rod Elms while Lynton Barmby pocketed the Pro Pin. There was to be a playoff from last month’s medal which was tied by Keith Giles and Josh Kent. Well,

they did it again, same score for the second time, so back to the drawing board and the next stroke round we will go through it all again. Good luck boys. Sunday, another great day at Port had the members playing Stableford. Port/Barwon Valley member Joy Francis enjoyed her day topping the pops with 37, runner-up was playing partner Jenny McKeon with 36.

Modewarre easily wins reserves flag BY LUKE GRIFFITHS MODEWARRE EASILY accounted for Torquay on Saturday to win the Buckley’s Reserve Cup. The Tigers controlled the first 10 minutes of the match but failed to translate that possession into scoreboard pressure, and although they were never really in the game, Torquay’s inaccuracy – five goals from 16 scoring shots – didn’t help its cause. The signs looked ominous for Torquay at half-time, despite trailing by only 17 points, only managing one goal for the half. Tigers coach Luke Cormack urged his players to take chances and play the style of game that got them into the grand final, however the second half was completely dominated by Modewarre,

who ran and carried the ball better than their opponent and made the most of chances when they managed to spot up players within the forward 50. Cormack said inaccuracy in front of goal – especially in the first half – hurt his team badly, but in the end Modewarre were just too good. “Kicking one goal seven (behinds) up until half-time didn’t help – if we had of been able to turn that around we might have been in with a bit of a chance. “In the end we were simply beaten by a better side on the day. They were much better than us in all areas of the game, simple as that.” Braeden Tournier kicked two goals and was Modewarre’s best player, with Grant Walker (four goals) and Daniel McCaskill other standout players for the victors, while for

Torquay Jonathan Hobbs was by far his team’s best player. “Hobbs was outstanding all day off the (half) back-flank. He kicked two goals as well, and was played a very, very good game in a losing side,” Cormack said.

Torquay’s James Donaldson just manages to hold onto his Modewarre opponent. Modewarre defeated Torquay by 55 points to win the BFL reserves premiership.

Ammos take U18 glory from Tigers BY LUKE GRIFFITHS GEELONG AMATEURS defeated Torquay by 23 points on Saturday to win the Community Bank Bellarine Football League under 18 grand final. A six-goal-to-two first quarter set up the victory and despite a surge from Torquay early in the last quarter, Amateurs never looked like getting beaten. Torquay outscored Amateurs in the second half and despite having more scoring shots for the match – 21 to 19 – they failed to capitalise on their opportunities in front of goal. Torquay coach Greg Mervin said that despite the loss he was pleased with his team’s ability to fight back after a sluggish start. “We didn’t start the game well, but I was really

proud of the boys’ effort to fight their way back into the game. “Our kicking in front of goal really hurt us. We didn’t make the most of the chances that we created and to be honest we missed some absolute sitters.” Strong marking Amateur Mason Wood won the medal for the best player on the ground, ably supported George Chisholm, who kicked four goals, Blake Nielsen and Scott Dixon. For the Tigers Dylan Ludbrook, Alexander Denton and Adam Gross were the better players. “Ammos are a very, very good side. They were very impressive today and the fact that they were able to make the most of their opportunities in front of goal won them the match,” said Mervin After finishing the home and away season fourth

TORQUAY NETBALL Club’s junior section has capped off a remarkable season by making five grand finals, winning four of them. The under 17 section two, under 15 section one and two, and under 13 section five teams all tasted premiership success, while the under 13 section four team lost narrowly to Ocean Grove. Torquay Netball Club President Julie Lewis said the season had been a stunning success and that all the netballers should be proud of what they have achieved. “We really couldn’t have asked for a better season – we only had two teams that didn’t make the finals. They’re really a great bunch of girls and we’re very proud of them. “All of the players, coaches and volunteers have been fantastic all year. The club works very hard to get the girls onto the court and they’ve certainly repaid us!” In other good news for the club Ellie Bews won the under 13 section one league best and fairest, while Tilly Thompson won the same award in the under 13 section two division.

TIDE TIMES

TODAY I want to discuss an issue that isn’t at the forefront of many people’s thoughts but will have some meaning for some of us. I remember going with my Dad and Sis down to the local creek, with bucket in hand and a number of sticks, all with at least 4-5 foot length of string attached. In our bucket we would also have some rabbit or meat off-cuts my Nan had given us. I remember Nan yelling out watch out for the Joe Blakes as we headed down to the creek. The sun would be shining, and we’d always be swatting at the blowies but we were kids. We were excited, because we were going yabbying! Now many people don’t give much thought to yabbying and take for granted that if we go down to the local creek or dam they may catch a feed. However, that seems to be becoming increasingly infrequent of late. This is a result of a number of issues that we need to address. In Victoria, our fisheries regulations state clearly that the allowable daily take of whole yabbies (Cherax spp) was increased from 20 litres to 30 litres of whole yabbies or five litres of yabby tails with no size limits applicable. Victoria’s fisheries regulations were reviewed and approved in March 2009, under the then Labor Government, and there was no requirement to return berried female yabbies (with eggs) to their environment. Measuring yabbies by volume can, however, have a impact on our yabby numbers. In August 2007 Fisheries declared that “the daily bag and possession limit of 100 Bass yabbies per person will be sufficient for the legitimate personal needs of recreational fishers”. Also, “taking yabbies

at a commercial rate will deplete their numbers and have broader ecosystem impacts”. Bass yabbies are salt water yabbies not freshwater yabbies – there is the rub – but why the difference? Twenty years or so ago you could catch yabbies up to 275 grams from the wild. Now the biggest in local waters on average only weigh 35 grams and are less than 150mm total length. An average bait sized yabby with a length of 5 to 6 cm tail tip to eyes weighing 4.4 grams occupying a volume of 0.8 litres is the equivalent to 125 yabbies per litre. Which equates out to 3,750 bait-size yabbies per 30 litre allowance. In NSW, the limit bag and possession limit for yabbies is no size limits but 200 per person. In SA, it’s the same. We do seem to be out of step with our two neighbours. Do we as recreational fisherman need to take that many? With no requirement to return berried female yabbies (carrying eggs) you can see the significant impact this could have on the species. So it is up to us as fishermen and women to make the right decision. I just hope that most of us decide we want to keep yabbying and do just that, by at least returning female yabbies back to the water especially if they are bearing eggs.
