Cr Cooper added that Council planners have already started on ways to maintain the three-storey intent of the latest Council resolution and create more surety for residents that their three-storey height limit is secure. “That resolution, in trying to close loopholes, had injected further levels of complication into the Kingscliff Locality Plan. The planners have come up with a better option,” he said. “Scrap the complicated adjustment of heights that I had embarked on to guarantee three storeys without loopholes. “They are suggesting that the range of three storey height measurements that I had proposed need not be included in the Locality Plan. “They suggested that the Local Environment Plan should state that a three-storey limit for mixed use and medium density zonings, whether 12.2m or 13.6m is mandatory. “This is a more powerful document than the Locality Plan. Furthermore “turning off” the variation clause in this LEP would encourage a focus on building design rather than just squeezing in more levels. “It will be much simpler for Council to enforce the three-storey limit and will remove any loopholes. “I thank the staff for improving my proposal and doing a better job of securing our three-storey building limit. “Thanks to them, Kingscliff is now more likely to retain its much-loved and much envied character for residents, visitors and those who follow us.” The public will be able to have their say on the Draft Kingscliff Locality Plan at two public meetings in early October, when the plan will also go on public exhibition.

Kingscliff resident and local business owner Carolyn Byrne has slammed the move by Cr Cooper saying he has not followed process in Council and she also questioned the wording of his petition and his approach to petitioners. “I believe knowing the answer to the petition question first, on Cr Cooper’s survey, compromises the result,” she said. “The focus has always been to not have high rise buildings across Kingscliff, but it’s not as simple as just placing a broad sweeping ban on fourstorey buildings.” Mrs Bryne said she was concerned by several comments made by Cr Cooper via social media. “Cr Cooper suggested that should any four-storey buildings be approved, he would not face re-election to Council,” she said. “We need an advocate for proper informed decisions to Kingscliff ratepayers, providing people with all the information, not taking a select view on a specific topic.” However, Cr Cooper said that although he did make the comment on Facebook, it was made in jest. “I was simply joking online, but I do admit to being elected to ensure we maintain a no high-rise approach to Kingscliff and that’s exactly what I’m doing - being re-elected is not high on my priorities as I’m in retirement but feel passionately about maintaining Kingscliff’s appeal,” he said.

TWEED SHIRE Councillor Ron Cooper is fending off criticism after he raised a motion to again decrease building height limits within the Draft Kingscliff Locality Plan during Council’s Planning Committee Meeting on Thursday, September 7. Cr Cooper’s motion, which was seconded by Cr Reece Byrnes, stated that the Draft Plan should reflect the three-storey building character of Kingcliff and not focus on metres as the measurement. The motion, which was carried, outlined that mixed use shop-top housing zones would be limited to a building height 12.2 metres except for the Marine Parade precinct which will remain at 11 metres. This would reduce the height limit of shop-top housing by 1.4 metres from 13.6 metres. Medium density residential only zones would be allowed a maximum building height of 11 metres with a podium no higher than 1.2 metres also permitted, which has decreased from the previous height of 12.2 metres. Cr Cooper said the changes were in response to a recent application to develop a site at Marine Parade, which had achieved almost four storeys in the previous height limit of 13.6 metres. “Several things promoted me to reduce the height limits again,” he said. “The first was this most recent development application at Marine Parade, which showed me that you can get away with higher than three storeys.” Cr Cooper said town planners had instructed him that 12.2 metres could be the limit. “So, I decided on 11 metres plus a 1.2 metre podium to be included on mixeduse residential buildings,” he said. Cr Cooper said he was “copping a lot of flak” over the most recent change, but he remained determined to maintain Kingscliff’s seaside appeal. “Can you imagine if we let these buildings go in at four or even five storeys, we’re going to lose the thing we’re trying to keep and maintain,” he said. “It’s what’s great about Kingscliff, is the low-density seaside village, that’s what visitors and locals love about the area.”

Kingscliff park name nonsense

New York’s Central Park is an icon, a genuine triumph of insightful planning and landscaping, providing wonder, entertainment and peace of mind to thousands on a daily basis. Kingscliff ’s “Central Park”, by contrast, is an ersatz conglomeration of snow-cone cement, cheap turf, bus-shelter seating and imported palm trees which will simply add to the existing traffic chaos in Marine Parade and little else. To name it “Central Park” is a complete nonsense and an insult to Kingscliff’s indigenous population. Surely an Aboriginal name could be found, or even Rainbow Park or Wommin Park after the adjoining beaches. And why import palm trees instead of native coastal shade trees? Council could even extend it’s huge fund of sensitivity and invite Joni Mitchell out to open it. Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

Chinderah foreshore a mess

On a recent trip to Cairns, I noted in the National Press that our Tweed Heads Mayor was brought to tears due to supposed environmental damage at Hastings Point as a proposed film was to be made in the area. The Mayor also made some sweeping statements including that Council should not be blinded by Hollywood, Hasting Point is unequalled by anywhere else on the coast, the community will be unable to access the headland and our community has fought fiercely to protect it. Having returned home after four months travel around the Eastern States, we found that the Chinderah foreshore is still being controlled by so called “Homeless People”. As a matter of fact this ghetto has grown in size and I call them “so called” because they have been offered heavily subsidised housing and refused. End of story, homeless no more. I ask the Mayor where are the tears for the Chinderah Foreshore and the actual not supposed environmental

damage that has been caused by so call homeless people. Well Mayor in fact here are some truths in answer. Council have been blinded by the so called “homeless” and bleed hearts. Chinderah was just as beautiful as elsewhere until a ghetto was allowed to grow and to this day and is still allowed to grow. Why? The foreshore is an uncontrolled and unauthorised rubbish tip that increases day by day. We have lost access and usage of our foreshore and the families that frequently used this area in the past, no longer come. The community of Chinderah are fighting to protect our foreshore and are doing it unassisted by Council and or authorities. Why i s C h i n d e ra h t re at e d differently to the rest of the Tweed? We support free camping and in four months of travel in the eastern states we never encountered a situation anywhere to compare to Chinderah. Most camps are well organised, allowing only for self-contained vehicles and a time limit of 48 hours. They benefit the community not decimate it. How would you like this ghetto in your street? John Phillips, Chinderah

Illegal campers giving grey nomads a bad name

As grey nomads, who have lived on the road for some years, we rely on free camping around Australia. We could not afford to stay at caravan parks all the time. However, we are very careful to only stay at legitimate free camps as listed in the bible, Camps Australia Wide or other such publications. For personal reasons, we have been staying in the Tweed area for some time and travel by Chinderah Bay Drive on a regular basis. We have also contacted the shire in relation to these illegal campers, including a lady who lived at the Chinderah boat ramp car park for approximately two months. Despite the sign at the entrance that states camping is not allowed and is punishable by a fine. We were told that she had issues. Don’t we all? In relation to Chinderah Bay Drive, I think you will find a lot of these are backpackers. They used to camp at the rear of the new garage at Chinderah until that was banned. Admittedly there are an increasing number of caravans using it as well. Our gripe is that this type of squatting gets a lot of the free camps in towns closed down. If they were fully self-contained vehicles, it wouldn’t be quite so bad, as you wouldn’t have the filth around the bushes that you have now. I also fail to understand how a man

can live there permanently in what can only be described as a hovel. It is an absolute pig sty. Poor chap has issues! Why can’t a section be put aside at a local showgrounds or like, for the homeless to live in their vans. They could pay a nominal fee, as they must be on welfare of some description. As for the others, they should be moved on to legal free camps, and stop giving the caring grey nomads a bad name. Alan & Judy, grey nomads

Where’s a keen camper go

Having been a keen camper all my life I feel there are not enough affordable camping sites around the lovely Tweed area. The fault of course is with the Tweed Shire Council and the high rates that I pay get absolutely nothing for. The Council should not without a plebiscite be allowed to close down or sell property owned by the taxpayers. We should have at all levels of government a direct democracy, where we people have a say, at every step from the nomination of a candidate to what changes the local people want and agree with so the Council can implement. Everywhere I have looked lately, Council has reduced the camping areas so that only the richer people can afford to go camping. What happened to the promised camping ground in Murwillumbah? They closed down the one near the racecourse and promised a new one, but where is the new one, I’m still waiting. That sort of recreation is so important for people of all ages. I definitely vote for more camping spaces. Tina Hormann, Tweed

Drinkable water is not always healthy water

If Tweed’s water supply is harming plant life then you can be assured that it’s also harmful for us. To say our water is ‘drinkable’ even though it tastes so unpleasant, amounts to telling consumers they have no right to expect any needed improvement in its quality. The dosing of drinking water with both chlorine and fluoride is also such a health concern that I choose to avoid forcing it down whenever possible. With a sad history of contamination events, I cannot depend on Council’s careless approach to monitoring the treatment and condition of our water. In the meantime, ratepayers pay ever increasing rates for a substandard service, due to the

neglect of our water and of local residents. Vicki Reid, Murwillumbah

Rail brings employment and tourism opportunities

I n 2 0 0 4 t h e N S W L ab o r Government removed the backbone of the Northern Rivers public transport network (ie the Casino to Murwillumbah railway line), leaving no major public transport infrastructure in the area. The NSW Liberal National Government has estimated the cost of reinstating the 130km Casino to Murwillumbah rail line at $900 million. That’s more than $6.5 million per km. Equivalent disused regional heavy rail lines in Victoria have been reinstated for $0.124 to $0.265 million per km. This is 50 times less than the costs estimated by the NSW Government. These inflated prices create an imbalance that favours roads over rail projects. Massive over-estimation of rail project costs is hindering reestablishment of much needed public transport infrastructure in the region, and indicates both the Labor and Liberal National Parties’ bias against rail projects and lack of a long term vision for transport planning. Northern NSW needs effective, efficient rail services to link up our regional communities and create more employment and tourism opportunities. Dave Norris, Pottsville

Honour the fallen

West of Murwillumbah, between the Rous River and Riva Vue estate, a bush ‘island’ atop a small hill has been bulldozed and the hill is now fast disappearing to provide developers money and people houses. Couldn’t their continued presence add to those people’s lives and environment? All trees and plants on that hill were native to our valley, including many bushes named Hovea that were laden, ready to burst into purple flower. The hill as part of ourvalley’s landscape was also formed by erosion of the ancient shield volcano. Nearby lies swampland for sale, natural overflow from the Rous River, providing future residents a very personal ‘riva vue’ of the next flood. I write not to whinge at Council or vent pained grief but to honour nature’s living beings who were not tourist material and in the way. Not the first or last. Nature is our first and silent healer. Often from the hill I feasted on the view, sloping down into green swaying grass over to houses, pasture, sugar cane and huge riverside trees. All greenery glowing

Questions remain over Council prayer

Tweed Shire Council is now asking attendees at Council meetings to remain seated and not stand for the draconian ritual of praying to their god for moral guidance. We understand that some of the Councillors do not quite grasp the significance of the Australian Constitution and the complete separation of religion and state, not to mention the Council bias and non-inclusive approach to select only one religion and its exclusive god. The god and religion this Council have selected to worship is the very same religious which has produced the very worst kind of criminals. Due to the extremely serious nature of the proven illegal activities of these ‘men of cloth’ (Australia and world-wide), we request that the Tweed Shire Council General Manager fully scrutinise, investigate and make public the credentials and character of all clergymen who are invited to pray at all Council meetings. This would be in-line with more than 75 per cent of Councils Australia wide. It would only take one Councillor with leadership qualities to raise a motion in Council to have this draconian ritual removed completely and forever. Andrew Bennett, Tweed Heads

Wrong use of word extinct

The ongoing use of the word ‘extinct’ in relation to the koala population is both emotive and false. Extinct means, ‘having no living members’, ‘no longer in existence’, ‘extinguished’. The word is not valid for the 80,000+ single species koalas living on Australia’s East Coast.

Concerns over land clearing raise Mayoral motion

LIMPINWOOD RESIDENTS have expressed their anger and frustration at what they claim has been extensive land damage and clearing by a property developer at a Hopping Dicks Creek property recently. Several residents had also phoned and visited The Weekly during the past fortnight expressing their disappointment with Council and the State Government, who they said have allowed increased logging due to a relaxation in legislation designed to protect local forests. The Caldera Environment Centre said that a developer had “purchased the 1,000-hectare property which has vital corridors for local wildlife, that we believe are being destroyed”. “Some of the land has large stands of koala habitat and part of it is listed as an Environmental Protection Zone,” a statement from the Centre reads. “This landowner has already been caught twice previously undertaking unauthorised works causing serious environmental damage and Council is currently pursuing action legal action against the proprietor.” The Caldera Environment Centre visited Hopping Dicks Creek on Sunday, September 10, when they went out to and took pictures of evidence of local Indigenous activity in the creek. “The area forms the largest remaining forested corridor for movement of wildlife occurring across the NSW/QLD border, between Lamington and Springbrook National Parks, to Mt Warning National Park

and the broader caldera region,” a Caldera Environment Centre statement reads. “Ongoing issues include an enormous siltation threat to the creek and its adjoining gullies, and immense pressure on native wildlife as a result of the continuing earthworks and heavy machinery traffic. Add now to that the presence of logging trucks. “There are systemic problems with governance and industrial economic development that ultimately sacrifice environmental values for short term economic gains. “Nearby, is Bald Mountain, recognised as one of our shire’s most significant Aboriginal meeting places. “The area has enormous cultural significance, but neither that, nor the area’s enormous environmental significance, has stopped the land owners from using heavy earthmoving machinery in and around the creek, and all over the land covered under title. “In the immediate area (and further), scats from both mature and baby koalas have been photographed and logged. “It is core koala breeding habitat. In the creek, there has been no report of platypus since 2014.” Tweed Shire Council Mayor Katie Milne moved a motion during Council’s Planning Meeting on Thursday, September 7, calling for a range of responses to the complaints and questioned whether Council should revoke the landholders logging licence. “The lack of scrutiny in these logging licences is outrageous,” Mayor Milne said. “Council can’t even get a copy of the licence to see what conditions are in place. “We need a detailed environmental study of the potential for damage to koalas in this important wildlife corridor.” “I move that Council notes the logging operations currently underway at the Hewittville property at Limpinwood.” The motion noted previous serious breaches

of unauthorised clearing at the property and the “lack of detailed studies required for forestry licence approvals”. The motion also noted “the concerns raised that koalas appear to be potentially affected by the current operations with reports of distress calls and apparent dislocation” and “the significant environmental and scenic values of the site with its proximity to Mt Warning/Wollumbin, mapping showing predictive aboriginal cultural heritage across most of the site”. Mayor Milne also voiced the concerns that several Limpinwood residents had raised around road suitability and road safety and truck movements to and from the site. The motion, which was carried with a unanimous vote, is that Council “undertakes an investigation into whether any logging or other inappropriate clearing activity may have occurred in environmental zones that require development consent from Council, and considers use of a drone to assist in this process”. Council will request the State Government halts the operation and undertakes a comprehensive compliance audit on the

current operations. Council will also investigate road conditions and road safety including alternative access along Tyalgum Road rather than Numinbah Road. Scott Sledge, a spokesman for Northern Rivers Guardians said that Limpinwood residents are being affected by the logging trucks which are travelling along narrow, winding roads. “There are residents in Boormans Rd who are badly affected by the noise and dust of the logging trucks,” he said. “Some say that these trucks - about three every day - going around dangerous bends and through Chillingham village while the school buses are operating are an accident waiting to happen. “I think the community would be outraged by this if they knew it was happening, not just about the demise of our precious koalas: there is a serious risk to public safety.” In April 2014, the Caldera Environment Centre also investigated an incident at Hopping Dicks Creek, when a resident reported damaging earthworks and land clearing.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Crystal Creek gathering prompts Council fine

MAURICE BLACKBURN Lawyers has announced it is investigating a no-win no-fee class action against retirement home chain operator Aveo around concerns of “unfair and unconscionable” contracts used by the company. The announcement comes in the wake of a Victorian Government Inquiry into problems in the retirement housing sector, an ACCC investigation, and extensive media coverage by ABC Four Corners and Fairfax of the alleged mistreatment of elderly people and potential breaches of Australian Consumer Law. In a media statement, Maurice Blackburn said the investigation into the class action was in response to Aveo, residents and advocacy groups calling for stronger rights and protections

for the elderly in such situations, and to increase access to justice for older Australians. Class Action Principal at Maurice Blackburn, Brooke Dellavedova, said it could be the best option available for affected elderly people to band together and hold the company accountable for taking unfair advantage of them. “We don’t think it’s fair or legal to subject elderly people to complex and confusing contracts that contain unfair terms,” Ms Dellavedova said. “There is understandably a high level of concern that people looking to enjoy their retirement, and who may be physically or mentally vulnerable, should not be taken advantage of by unscrupulous business models. “If enough people want to take action against Aveo, then we will look to step

properties,” the resident said. “Our requests to have their tradesmen park their vehicles on their own land fell on deaf ears.” The resident said she wanted to stress she had nothing against the centre encouraging local support through medical and homelessness support, however she felt the centre should not be at the expense of neighbours and act outside Council requirements. “Last week a huge marquee was erected on the site. Hundreds of chairs, catering equipment, toilets and temporary infrastructure were put in place,” she said. “We were made aware via the internet of the four day festival they were planning and they were encouraging hundreds of followers to attend. “This centre had no Council permission to hold such a huge festival in our quiet street, nor did they at any time bother to let the adjoining neighbours know what they were up to.” “We were absolutely stunned on Wednesday morning when hundreds of people and cars started arriving. “We placed “No Parking” signs on our property and they were ignored. “Tweed Shire Council compliance officers attended the illegal festival and advised them to close it down. “They continued into the night, blocking access to our property and continued in the morning for another full day of their festival.”

The New South Wales Government’s changes to the workers compensation payments for people suffering from workplace injuries is going to leave thousands of people in dire financial difficulties. The changes, due to start in December, severely limit financial assistance for workplace compensation, so that only the most seriously injured people will qualify. Justin Stack, Managing Director of Stacks Law Firm, said he knew hundreds of people who will be hit hard by the insurer’s withdrawal of assistance. Injured workers who had been covered for weekly benefits until retirement and medical expenses for life will lose those entitlements from December. Those whose injuries are assessed to be less than 21 per cent whole person impairment will lose the payment. “Even people who can’t walk properly, can’t work, are unable to have surgery and rely on costly medications to relieve pain from their work injury fall short of the government’s 20 per cent threshold,” Mr Stack said. “It hits regional areas especially hard as injured workers are already struggling on the poverty line and the work available is more physical, they have higher transport costs and it is tougher to find work that they can do with their injuries.” He said Stacks Law Firm has helped many people who were injured at work to get financial assistance and now feared for their welfare over the government decision. “They live in pain, yet the government is inflicting even more pain on them by forcing them into financial hardship. This is despite the compensation scheme having a $1.4 billion surplus.” One man who had two spinal operations since his 1997 accident now faces losing his farm as he is just one impairment level short of qualifying for the payments. A mother who is the sole carer for her disabled daughter has spinal injuries and other health problems and cannot work. Yet she has been assessed as having just 12 per cent impairment. She also has disabling psychological issues stemming from the injuries and battling the workers compensation system, but that is not counted in assessing her level of impairment. “The government says the changes are to get people back to work, but these people cannot work because of their injuries and the pain they are in every day.” “We work with these people every day trying to help them in the ongoing fight with the workers compensation system. We know their problems, the politicians do not. They should come out and join us as we go about trying to help these people, then perhaps they would understand,” Mr Stack said. ”Responsibility for comment is taken by Stacks Law Firm

promoted and held at the site. “Council officers inspected the site on multiple occasions through the event and were of the view that the use was unauthorised, and required prior development consent,” a Council spokesperson said in response to several questions from The Weekly. “The organisers of the event were requested in writing and verbally to cease the use and seek the necessary approvals, but the owners were of the view that no approval was required. “Council is in the process of issuing penalty infringement notices for the unauthorised use.” The concerned resident said the group purchased the eight-acre property last year and within a few months the centre had released a video outlining their intentions and plans to build a hall, big enough to house 300 followers for regular festivals and events. “Without exception, every adjoining neighbour protested the activity and Tweed Shire Council assured us that this group would never be given permission to do this in the area,” the resident said. However, the resident said that during the past six months, the group had continued to proceed “as if they were above the law”. “Totally disregarding the local residents and Council bylaws, while this group prepared for their first festival, they parked not on their land, but all over our and our neighbour’s

Changes to workers compensation payments to hit vulnerable injured people

A CRYSTAL Creek resident has raised concerns with what she believes is a series of festivals taking place at a Crooks Valley Road property, of which Tweed Shire Council has received multiple complaints from residents in the past week. The resident, who asked not to be named, said she believes a group under the banner of “Centre of Human Excellence” has hosted two festivals for what she said was about 300 people across three days. However, a spokesperson for the Centre has refuted those claims and said the group was instead a gathering of like-minded people coming together not under any religious banner, but to find ways to provide health and medical services to those in need as well as addressing homelessness. A spokesperson for the Centre told The Weekly that the organisers did not believe there was any issues with hosting the gathering but they understood the concerns of the resident. “We were acting in accordance with Council’s requirements and we also engaged our neighbours to ensure we were doing the right thing,” he said. The group’s spokesman said they had arranged for traffic monitoring and any illegal structures on the site were from the previous property owner. However, according to a Council statement the new property owner had received multiple complaints last week that a three-day event had been

Jockey Club GM destined for dream job in Sydney

THE TWEED River Jockey Club will bid farewell to the Club’s General Manager and local legend Brian Charman in two weeks as he packs up the family and sets off to Sydney for a childhood dream job. The Racing NSW Country Board officially announced the appointment of Mr Charman as the New Executive Officer of Country Racing on September 1, with Mr Charman set to take on the role in early October. Tweed River Jockey Club Chairman, Bernie Quinn OAM, said it was a proud moment for the Club and Murwillumbah as Brian’s appointment to the Executive Role with NSW Country Racing. “It was his just reward for 15 years of involvement and dedication to the Tweed River Jockey Club and the racing Industry, initially as a Director of the Club and more so in his management role over the last three years,” Mr Quinn said. “It would be a considerable loss for the Club based on his significant contribution and his relationship with the many racing industry participants, however I have no doubt Brian was destined for this role and although it was hard to have him leave the club we wish him and his family all the very best of luck.” Mr Charman, a qualified Accountant with more than twenty years’ experience in public practice and finance said he was looking forward to the new role. “Now that we have made the decision to take the fantastic opportunity on offer with Racing NSW Country I am looking forward to getting down to Sydney and working within Racing Administration and the Racing NSW Country Board of Directors,” he said. “I have been involved with the Racing Industry my entire life with my father initially a jockey and then turning his hand to training in the 70s and 80s. “To be employed now within the industry here at Murwillumbah is terrific, I have had a fabulous three years working with a great community and supportive Board of Directors.

“I have been able to accomplish many goals that I set personally during this period and it has set the grounding for future opportunities. Mr Charman was born and bred in Murwillumbah and said his family was going to miss the township and the community. “We had to look at treating the move as an adventure and although the children are a little apprehensive, they’re excited at their support of the move and the experience and opportunities Sydney will also offer for them,” he said. Meanwhile, the Tweed River Jockey Club has received a tremendous amount of interest in the available position of Manager and the Board of Directors has been able to identify a small group of “very well credentialed applicants” all capable of taking on the role. “The club was in very good hands with the long-standing Chairman Mr Quinn looking forward to the future and supporting the new Secretary Manager in every way possible to ensure the thriving Club on the Northern Rivers of NSW remains the place to visit on race days,” he said. Mr Charman said an appointment would be confirmed as soon as possible and was looking forward to spending several days with the successful applicant prior to his departure. “Racing at Murwillumbah remains in a very strong position and is looking forward to working with the new Secretary Manager and excited about their potential spin on race days after the completion of the new “deck and the refurbishment of the lounge,” he said. Mr Charman’s final formal function will take place at the Tweed River Jockey Club on Saturday, September 16 with an A-La-Carte dining experience showcasing culinary artist and “Chef to the Stars” Nigel Coulson. Limited numbers are still available for the evening and reservations can be made direct to the club. To book your place or to find out more phone (02) 6672 3672 or email tweedrjc@ bigpond.net.au

KOOL KIDS Early Learning Centre at Casuarina is offering an amazing new model of early education that’s helping children achieve their full potential during the early stages of learning. The centre achieves this by providing a facility that is an extension of the family home with a variety of cultural and ethnical backgrounds in mind. The centre also welcomes children with special needs and educators integrate all children within the curriculum. Kool Kids was founded by Bruce and Carolyne Coulson about 14 years ago. Bruce said the centre’s philosophy was to build a strong foundation for learning in a child’s early development. “Our journey began with one centre in Miami which was run down and badly in need of renovations. The centre was running at 60 per cent occupancy and within two months of improving the facilities the centre reached 100 per cent occupancy,” he said. “We quickly realised that the industry was lacking high quality child care centres with great resources and a real family, hands on approach. “Soon after our success with the first centre we purchased another and repeated the process. We went from approximately 70 per cent occupancy to 100 per cent again within two months.” Bruce said it was at this stage the Kool Kids team realised they needed to build centres from the ground up and that when the centres were finished they needed to reflect the complete Kool Kids feel. “The centres had to be developed with consistency in mind to provide a clear difference between a Kool Kids centre and the rest,” he said. “We pride ourselves on the ways in which we design, build and resource each centre and believe we must improve on each new centre that we develop. “It takes months to get our designs just right, to develop our external grounds, to get our colours right. “We go over every inch of a centre until perfection becomes a reality.” Bruce said Kool Kids aims to provide quality learning environments, teachers and educators to prepare children for school and make them more equipped than any competitor in the field. “Children leave our centres more than ready for the next stage of their learning journey at School,” he said. “To start a child at school without the best start is failing the child and failing their family. “In all our Kool Kids centres children are taught a second language by a qualified language teacher who is fluent in both Japanese and English”. “Throughout each year, nine language modules are taught to each child.

Heroic rescue attempts recognised Tyalgum celebrates new park

A CABARITA Beach local has received a Bravery Award for his efforts to rescue a friend who died when spear fishing off Moreton Island in March 2015, while two Queensland men were awarded Commendations for Brave Conduct after they went to the aid of stricken swimmers at Fingal Head in October 2015. The Bravery Award went to Cabarita local Kurt Zietlow who in the early morning of March 7, 2015, went to the rescue of his drowning friend while spear fishing at Moreton Island. Mr Zietlow and three friends were free diving and spear fishing at an area known as Hutchinson Shoal, off Moreton Island. Throughout the morning, Mr Zietlow and his friends had been taking alternate turns, with three diving and one operating the boat. Mr Zietlow was acting as a ‘diving buddy’ for his friend who was resurfacing, as he commenced his own dive. On returning to the surface he noticed that his friend was still in the water, had blacked out, his body had gone limp and he was sinking. Mr Zietlow immediately swam towards his friend, but despite desperate attempts to grab him, he continued to descend into deeper water of approximately 28 metres. Mr Zietlow quickly raised the alarm and they reboarded the boat. Two divers then re-entered the water to reach their friend while Mr Zietlow raised the alarm using the EPIRB radio and smoke flares. He then continued to alternate with the other divers in searching for their friend and being aboard the boat. Whilst Mr Zietlow was on board the boat the other divers were able to retrieve their friend and swim him to the surface. The friends then pulled their unconscious

friend onto the boat and re-boarded themselves. Mr Zietlow, assisted by the other two men, commenced CPR and returned to the shore where Water Police took over. Unfortunately, the man was unable to be revived. By his actions, Mr Zietlow displayed considerable bravery. Two Commendations for Brave Conduct went to Christopher Dennis and Aaron Hiller from Queensland, who on the afternoon of October 10, 2015, were involved in the rescue of a boy who was swept into the sea at Fingal Head. A woman and three young children were playing in an area known as Echidna Rock. The children were two metres from the water line when a large wave crashed onto the headland and caused one of the children, a nine-year-old boy, to lose his footing and fall onto the rocks and into the water. The remaining two children also lost their balance, but did not enter the water. Aggie Auelua, 26, who was with the three children, immediately jumped into the water and swam to the boy and, on reaching him, held his head above the water, despite not being able to swin. Both Mr Dennis and Mr Hiller observed Aggie’s attempts to rescue the child and noticed they appeared to be struggling, so they quickly entered the surf and swam towards them. Upon reaching the distressed swimmers Mr Dennis took hold of the child and began to swim away from dangerous rocks and raised the alarm with nearby fishermen. He continued to manoeuvre through the strong currents and was eventually able to touch a sandbank where a police officer had swum out to assist. The police officer towed the boy through the surf until he could stand and walk. Sadly, Aggie did not survive the incident.

Cr Reece Byrnes, Justine Elliot MP, Cr Pryce Allsop and Cr Ron Cooper celebrating the opening of the new park

TYALGUM RESIDENTS turned out in large numbers to celebrate the official opening of their upgraded village park on Saturday, September 2. Kids were busy on the new skate park and playground all day, while families enjoyed a multitude of activities in Tyalgum Memorial Park following its $200,000 overhaul. “This whole project will make a wonderful difference to Tyalgum and all the people who visit this wonderful and unique village,” Federal Member for Richmond, Justine Elliot, said during the opening ceremony. “It looks absolutely stunning. It’s a fantastic project for our youth to have this skate park and all the other amenities here. “I recognise all the Tyalgum groups for having the vision, the commitment and the enthusiasm for getting a project like this up and running, it really shows what can be achieved when everyone is working forwards for a great result.” Tyalgum Community Consultation Group Chairman Mic Julien told the ceremony the upgraded park was the product of a close and enduring joint project between Council and the village’s residents. When Council decided in 2013 to close the

Tyalgum Waste Transfer Station because of low patronage, community members saw an opportunity for the saved funds to be redirected into the village. The consultation group was formed from delegates of the village’s eight community organisations and the community was invited to suggest alternative uses for the money that would have been spent operating the transfer station. A new skate park in Tyalgum had been identified as a priority in the Tweed Shire Youth Strategy and Action Plan, and close cooperation between village delegates and the Council’s waste and youth officers had made it a reality. Mr Julien said it was wonderful to now see children playing in the improved park and he looked forward to the completion of the collaboration’s other project, a look-out at the former waste transfer station site. Professional skater Michael, who performed a skating demonstration at the opening, was one of the young people who built Tyalgum’s original skate park six years ago. He said he was really impressed by the new facility and would be travelling out to Tyalgum more often to skate.

Station heralds new era for Tweed Police

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Crime reducing across Tweed THE LATEST crime figures for the Tweed Shire reveal an ongoing downward trend in most crime categories over the past 12 months, according to the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics, although murders were the second highest in the state rising from one to four. The Tweed continues to have a lower rate of crime per 100,000 compared to the state average in all crime categories apart from murder. Indecent assault, robbery, vehicle theft, sexual offences and domestic violence remain a concern with a 20 per cent increase in robberies with a weapon not a firearm, indecent assault rising by 16 per cent and domestic violence assaults rising 9 per cent. Major crime categories that saw a reduction included break and enters dropping 23 per cent, thefts from a store 17 per cent and motor vehicle theft 15 per cent. Crime

THE OFFICIAL opening of the Tweed Heads Police Station on Wharf Street took place on Friday, September 8, with the community promised a visit of the new station in February 2018, as media, politicians and officials toured the new facility. Those in attendance included NSW Minister for Police and Emergency Services Troy Grant, NSW Police Commissioner Michael Fuller, Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot, State Member for Tweed Geoff Provest, local police officers, Tweed Shire Councillors and staff and local dignitaries. The ceremony included the unveiling of a commemorative plaque as well as several speeches both Commissioner Fuller, Superintendent Wayne Starling, Chief Inspector Michael Dempsey and Mr Grant MP. The station ushers in a new era of policing for the Tweed Shire, with a sophisticated new $25-million site.

The previous site at Recreation Street lasted 34 years and a Tweed Heads Police station had been established at Tweed Heads since around 1890. Among those in attendance was Tweed artist Christine Slabb, who created an amazing sweeping blue mural that she personalised in Tweed’s honour. “It was a long process,” she said. “But it was really worth it and I’m so proud and honoured to have created this for the local police and community.” Meanwhile, several residents have raised concerns that the planned February 2018, open day for the community was disappointing. “I can understand that some people including my friends are disappointed that the community open day for the new Tweed Heads Police station won’t occur before February 2018,” Superintendent Wayne Staring said. “In the perfect world I would be holding the community open day now and not in February. However, I have to put the operational needs and the safety

of our community first. “We are coming into our busiest time of year operationally. And I need to deploy our police out into the community to ensure community safety. “We have some operational issues which I need to address prior to the open day in February 2018. Also, it is my responsibility to ensure that the open day is safe for both Police and community members who attend “As a result of a number of issues, I have to ensure that sufficient police are rostered on duty within the station at the time of the open day. “Lastly, when we do the open day I am also relying on other sections of the Police Force to attend and do displays. “This includes the Marine Command and Dog Squad. We are also planning on sealing a time capsule at the Police station on that date. “I want it to be a special day for our community and one which we will repeat biannually. “Thanks for your understanding.”

How to Zero Your Power Bill - and Stay Connected to the Grid

With FIT’s at 12-16c you can now sell power back to the grid as part of a strategy to minimise and eliminate power charges completely.

Production from 2.5 kW of solar - about 10 panels - will offset the dreaded electricity supply charge when all the generated power is exported at 12-16c per kWh. With solar export FIT’s now more than half the cost of buying power from the grid, the rest of your power charges can be neutralised with more solar as well. Power used from solar panels directly during the day will offset the full price of buying power, so maximising use during the day is essential. Power used after daylight hours can be offset by generating and exporting twice as much to the grid as you use at night.

A two person household could neutralise their electricity bill completely with 5-8 kW of solar panels, without using batteries or going off grid.

The Network operator, Essential Energy, sets limits for how much solar you can export to the grid. A general cap of 5 kW of solar generation is often applied, so buying more panels for export production alone may not work for larger households. Using batteries to store the extra solar power generated above your export quota is then an excellent investment to eliminate most of your power charges. A combination of solar for export, self use maximised during daylight hours and battery storage is a great strategy to bring your bill closer to zero for medium to large households. You can also go off grid and eliminate your bill as well. 888 Solar Tek offer a FREE consultation to help you with your solar energy plan, examining your bill, advising on energy providers and designing a solar solution to help you take control of rampant energy charges.

Are You Getting the Best Power Deal?

Just Get Some Panels on Your Roof!

A small grid-connected solar system will pay for it self in as little as two to three years. By generating enough power to cover your use during daylight hours, you can eliminate up to 50% of your total power use from the grid. Every new solar panel attracts a subsidy from the Government, slashing the cost of purchase and making this play the most affordable way to combat the coal and gas electricity cartel. Strategies that maximise electricity use during the day, when the most solar power is being generated, by shifting washing, cooking, pool and hot water heating to these times, can make a huge difference to power costs. Retirees who are home most of the time adapt well to this solar lifestyle and can eliminate a large part of their electricity charges with a few solar panels working quietly on their roof every day. Businesses that operate 9-5 are also great beneficiaries from this strategy because solar power is readily available when they need it most.

Councillors tackle tough planning meeting topics

TWEED SHIRE Councillors tackled a range of local development applications during this month’s Planning Committee meeting which took place at the Tweed Heads Administration Building on Thursday, September 7. Among the big-ticket items included an application for stage six of Bolton Clarke Darlington (formerly named RSL Care) at 124-128 Leisure Drive, Banora Point. The development worth $16.6 million included a three-storey development comprising 33 aged care residential rooms and 36 independent living units. The development was recommended for refusal with 12 areas of concern listed by Council staff including proposed changes that impacted on both safety and the amenities including accessibility issues.

Four Councillors voted to refuse the development including Cr Reece Byrnes, Cr Chris Cherry, Cr Ron Cooper and Mayor Katie Milne, which carried the motion. Councillors James Owen and Cr Warren Polglase voted against. Cr Pryce Allsop was away for the meeting due to work commitments. Another development application called for an amendment to a development consent to expand and amalgamate existing quarries at Pollards Road in Dulguigan. Council’s recommendation was for the expansion and amalgamation to be deferred for the purposes of hosting a workshop to address issues and concerns raised by the Tumbulgum Community Association. The motion also called for the Tumbulgum Community Association to provide a full list of issues and concerns to council staff and

Hy-tec industries, responsible for the site. The motion was carried with only Cr Chris Cherry voting against. Another big motion was settling discussions around boutique hotel Halcyon House and the acclaimed Paper Daisy restaurant. Complaints have been made by Cabarita Beach residents who said that Halcyon House was not adhering to its development approval, by allowing the general public access to the hotel’s restaurant without being guests. The hotel took several steps to address parking and bin concerns, but has persisted with opening the restaurant to the public. The motion called on Council's General Manager to advise Halcyon House in writing that Council does not support intensification of the motel use that results in increased demand on parking and impact

on the neighbourhood amenity. “Council requires the motel (accommodation, restaurant and ancillary components) to operate in accordance with the development consent as it stands and any unauthorised use is to cease immediately,” the motion reads.

Delays to Tweed NBN

THE NATIONAL Broadband Network (NBN) continues to be rolled out across the Tweed Shire with around 30,000 homes already able to make the switch, however Kingscliff residents will need to wait until at least this time next year to connect. The company has addressed concerns around delays to the rollout, which has been extended several times with the latest extension to complete most of the Tweed Shire’s NBN by April 2018. Once the NBN is live, some homes and businesses may also require work before they are ready to connect, which could also take on average another six months. The NBN Co had announced earlier this year that the Tweed would be connected to the NBN by September 2017. Businesses within Murwillumbah's CBD and South Murwillumbah will not be able to connect until April 2018, however, parts of Murwillumbah Street and Prospero Street will be able to connect to fibre to the curb technology which promises faster, more reliable internet. The NBN spokesperson said works to connect more than 7,800 homes and businesses in Kingscliff to the high-speed internet service will begin early next year with residents expected to be able to start ordering retail services this time next year. “It’s worth noting that some 1,800 premises across Murwillumbah and Kingscliff are set to benefit from the rollout of NBN Fibre-to-the-Curb technology which will launch next year,” the NBN spokesperson said. “The rollout of this technology at scale means there are some homes and businesses which now have a revised timeline on when they’ll be able to connect to the NBN network. “Currently, close to 30,000 homes and businesses across the Tweed Shire can access the NBN network. This includes areas such as Tweed Heads, and parts of Banora Point, Hastings Point, Cudgera Creek and Pottsville. “As well as including 4,250 homes and businesses in parts of Duranbah, Dunbible, Kingscliff, Murwillumbah Hill, Tygalgah, Terranora, Zara, Chillingham and Uki that are able to access the NBN network via NBN’s Fixed Wireless technology. “It is expected these people will be able to progressively start to order retail services over the NBN network from next week through to April 2018."

Mr. Property Services’ goal is to provide “a home for every budget” Mr. Property Services was established in 2008 to offer a professional and dedicated service at reasonable rates to the 'Buyers' and 'Sellers' of manufactured homes located in Lifestyle Villages and Residential Parks in the Tweed Valley and the southern tip of the Queensland Gold Coast. The Law applying to homeowners in Caravan Parks, Residential Parks and Manufactured Home Estates has changed effective from the 1/11/2015. The Residential (Land Lease) Communities Act 2013 has replaced the Residential Parks Act 1998. Community Rules replace Park Rules & Regulations One of the significant changes that the Residential Land Lease Communities Act 2013 has introduced concerns community rules. Residents, the owner and operator of a community must comply with the community rules. The operator must also try to ensure compliance with the rule by all residents and occupants, employees and any other person in the community at the operator’s invitation. It is very clear that community rules apply to everyone in the community. This means that in any community where there is a rule that occupants must be over a certain age, all occupants must meet that age limit including casual occupants and holiday makers. The Tenants Union recently checked this with Fair Trading and they confirmed that community rules apply to everybody. If you live in a community where the community rules are not enforced and interpreted fairly and consistently you can make a complaint to NSW Fair Trading, or you may be able to make an application to the NSW Civil and

Was there a valid Will that may have been lost? Another important thing to do is establish if the deceased actually did make a Will but it is missing. A valid Will usually appoints an Executor and gives them immediate rights in relation to the administration of the deceased Estate and the assets owned by the deceased as at the date of death. No Will means the next of kin will need to apply to the Court to be given these rights in lieu of the Will (Letters of Administration). This is an added cost to the Estate. If a Will cannot be found but there is evidence to confirm that it was last seen and in the possession of the deceased then there is a legal presumption that the Will has been intentionally destroyed by the Will maker in order to revoke it. To rebut this presumption the court will consider facts to prove that the Will existed with the intention to remain and that it was duly executed. Things to consider as to whether the Will was intentionally destroyed or not are:1. The context of the Will and the Will maker’s attitude towards the beneficiaries. Has the relationship changed between the deceased and any family members or close friends that were intended to be beneficiaries in the Will? 2. Did the deceased talk and/or mention their Will to friends, family or neighbours? 3. Is there any evidence that the Will was destroyed? 4. Was the deceased able to destroy the Will (consider physical and mental limitations)? What if the Will is nowhere to be found but there is evidence of a Will? If there is concrete evidence that a valid and duly executed Will existed prior to the death of the deceased and it was not revoked, then it is very important to obtain proper legal advice to explore your options. An interesting case from 1993 demonstrates the Courts power to reconstruct a Will should there be evidence in support of the claim. A famous Sydney artist, Brett Whitely, hand wrote his Will, had it witnessed by two independent witnesses and hid it at his house. At that time, Mr Whitely shared the existence of the Will and its whereabouts with a trusted friend. Subsequently, Mr Whitely openly discussed terms in his Will with his daughter and some of his friends on numerous and separate occasions. After Mr Whitely’s death the Will was nowhere to be found. An application was brought to the Court to reconstruct the Will based on sworn evidence about the terms of the Will and its existence. The Court found there was sufficient evidence to reconstruct Mr Whitely’s Will! CONCLUSION Hopefully you have picked up some useful tips from this article to assist in finding a Will. Sometimes speaking to lawyers who are experienced in this area of law can help you in your search. Please note Attwood Marshall offer free storage of important legal documents in our secure safe custody strong room as part of our service to our clients.

A family member or close friend dying unexpectedly is difficult enough to deal with. What happens if you can’t find a Will? Attwood Marshall Lawyer Larisa Kapur, who practices exclusively in Wills & Estates, gives some tips on this difficult area of law. We receive many enquiries from family members and friends unable to find the last Will of a relative or friend who has passed away. They are often hoping for a quick and easy solution to help them locate the last Will. Many people believe there is a central ‘Wills register’ and that solicitors can easily find them. Unfortunately this is not the case and finding a lost Will can become a timely and costly exercise for family and loved ones of the deceased person. It is much easier for friends and family if a Will can be found. Most banks and insurance companies require a certified copy of the Will and the death certificate before they will release any funds. In many circumstances (and depending on the amount or value of the assets involved), they will require a Grant of Probate of a Will or Letters of Administration. Is there a centralised Will registry? No - there is not a Government operated Will registry in existence. There are a few internet based, privately run, Will registries that charge ongoing fees for storage of an electronic copy of your Will and an address of where the original Will is kept. This is not something that is utilised often due to the ongoing membership fees and the requirements to keep contact details updated. Where to start looking for the Will? In order to progress with the deceased Estate administration it is vital to conduct rigorous searches in an attempt to locate the last Will of the deceased. The Court will require evidence of the searches taken to locate the last Will of the deceased in any application for a Grant by personal representatives of the estate. If you are unable to locate the Will at the deceased’s last known residence and by searching personal possessions and paperwork then you should try the following steps: 1. Contact the person’s bank to see if they held a safety deposit box or had documents held in safe custody or securities; 2. Contact local solicitors where the deceased person resided throughout their life and ask if they hold a copy of the Will for the deceased (look for any paperwork or correspondence from solicitors); 3. Contact QLD Public Trust Office or NSW Trustee and Guardian (or equivalent in your State) – they have an online Deceased Will Enquiry portal that allows you to search for Wills they may have in their custody; 4. Submit a request to the Supreme Court of NSW to search the Probate Office as they maintain a Will registry, where any person can voluntarily deposit their Will for safe keeping – fees apply; 5. Contact the Law Society of NSW and request a search of their safe custody. Also solicitors can place an advertisement in the “lost Wills section” of the Law Society of NSW Journal for other solicitors state wide to see (the equivalent in QLD is through the QLD Law Society Proctor Journal); 6. Check the person’s computer and smart phone – there may be an electronic copy of a will or evidence of their testamentary intentions. There is no quick and simple way to locate a lost Will. The above steps are a starting point and are to be considered as part of a process of elimination.

Local op shop helping at home and abroad Tweed Vinnies to reopen

HEALTHY EATING MADE EASY

AFTER MANY weeks of building work and internal renovations, the Vinnies shop in Beryl Street, Tweed Heads will reopen its doors on Monday, September 18, at 10am.

The shop’s layout has been extensively redesigned and remodelled, with a brighter layout and better display space for quality bargain clothing, bedding items, a wide range of kitchen and household goods, toys, books, and more. “The extensive revamp of Vinnies Tweed Heads has enabled the creation of a much-improved layout and a better environment for both shoppers and our volunteers,” St Vincent de Paul Society’s North Coast President Yvonne Wynen said. “The remodelled shop will come as a nice surprise for bargain hunters,” Ms Wynen added. “Over the years I’ve found some great clothing and kitchen items in Vinnies shops, and like my friends, I really enjoy visiting op shops to see what bargains I might spot. “With new stock arriving every day, shoppers never know what bargains or unusual items might come in. I seldom leave empty-handed. “Op shops bring together a real cross-section of our society, both the less well-off, for whom we need to keep prices low, as well as people chasing stylish goods at bargain prices.” Vinnies estimates that around 80 per cent of its shop customers come for the bargains, with the remaining 20 per cent being people in need. The 27 Vinnies shops throughout the North Coast are the major source of funding for the personal support services that Vinnies provides. Vinnies Lismore shop has also been extensively renovated after suffering from Cyclone Debbie’s flooding of the CBD. It reopened on, September 11.

For excellence in aged care Heritage Lodge is very proud to be a winner in the Primary Care Excellence Awards 2017 for integration and Partnership held on Thursday 7th September. In particular, this recognition is for Heritage Lodge’s very sensitive and dedicated approach to palliative care. The Heritage Lodge Aged Care community in Murwillumbah, has been working very closely with Decision Assist linkages, to ensure the best possible palliative support for its residents. The result is a more inclusive approach that is already being appreciated by all those at Heritage Lodge who need palliative care, as well as their families. Helen Bolt, McKenzie’s Registered Nurse Supervisor, has managed this project from inception and is thrilled to see how well it is working. “Its success can be measured by the many conversations that are now taking place about palliative care options. These involve the residents, their families, the GPs

and care staff,” Helen explained. “Like all McKenzie Aged Care communities, we are family run, so we know what a sensitive time this is in everyone’s life,” Helen emphasised. “Now, though, through information sessions and consultations, an Advanced Care Plan or statement of choice can be agreed upon so family, Doctors and staff are aware of the resident’s choices and make appropriate care decisions. This way, Heritage Lodge can ensure that residents and their families wishes are respected by everyone who is involved with their care.” Another thoughtful improvement has been the introduction of an Honouring Ceremony. “As a resident leaves us for the final time, we use a beautiful quilt made by their friends in the community,” Helen added. “Then residents, staff and family are invited to form a guard of honour, along with the playing of music and sharing of a few words, such as a poetry recital.”

KINGSCLIFF PODIATRY now has the latest 3D Foot scanning technology for custom orthotic manufacture. 3D Laser scanning technology has taken a huge forward stride in the past 6 months with the introduction of mini scanners which clip onto an Ipad and utilise the camera to comprehensively measure foot shape in seconds. The scan is then used by a high powered computer programme to design the orthotic shape according to the Podiatrists prescription. The orthotic is then cut out of the highest quality materials by a computer controlled router in a local laboratory and hand finished. The result is a pair of custom orthotics made to the best industry standards available which will last many years. Kingscliff Podiatry can assess your foot biomechanics to check for any abnormalities which may contribute to any symptoms you may have. Any Biomechanical abnormalities can be addressed with custom orthotic therapy which translates to pain relief. Hyper - rockered shoes are another tool in the Podiatrists tool box for treating certain biomechanical issues. Patients that can particularly benefit from this technical shoe design include individuals suffering from painful fixed or partially fixed big toes after surgery or from severe osteo arthritis, Ankle pain, bunion pain, mid-foot osteo arthritis,

Michael, who was born in Sydney and raised in Blacktown, said he never intended to become a teacher. “I kind of fell into it, but as it turns out I loved it,” he said. He developed into an inspired teacher, always eager to impart the joys of learning to his students. “I found that my focus was always on helping kids learn and it’s been my passion throughout my entire career,” he said. Michael went on to work in a wide range of schools in both city and rural areas as well as in the state office co-ordinating vocational learning

programs across NSW. He said that he has always been committed to strengthening links between school and community because that is what works best for kids. “I am pleased to have built strong partnerships between Murwillumbah High School and various community organisations, agencies and groups in support of student learning and wellbeing” “It is nice to see a commitment from school leaders such as the new Principal at Murwillumbah High School to maintain that strong engagement with the community, exemplified in how the school responded in the recent floods” he said. “As a Deputy Principal I often said that 95 per cent of your time is taken up with five per cent of the students who are in crisis for one reason or another.” Michael said his focus was always on project and community-based learning.

“It’s a hard thing to get students to stay engaged and interested, but I believe through project and community-based learning, it’s close to home and something they can connect with, find something they are passionate about” he said. This commitment paid off last year with three students from the Youth Frontiers community mentoring program winning their sections at state level. Michael said that out of all the schools he taught at, Murwillumbah High School was right up there at the top for him. “It’s a great school with amazing teachers and support staff, as well as students who love to learn, and a community that really cares” he said. “I feel pleased and privileged to have been a part of the team here in Murwillumbah.” As well as making some travel plans, Michael and his wife Julie are planning to retire to Glen Innes.

A MAN travelling on the wrong side of the Pacific Motorway at Clothiers Creek in a ute, has narrowly avoided hitting several vehicles including trucks and a police car at 12.30am on Saturday, September 9, and the Queensland driver blew 0.19. The 29-year-old man driving was arrested according to a police statement which said the man was “allegedly driving his vehicle on the wrong side of a motorway on the Far North Coast this morning, narrowly missing numerous cars including a police car”. Police said they received a triple zero call from a witness who said the Mitsubishi Triton was being “driven at allegedly high speeds into oncoming traffic on the M1”. “A short time later, a police officer driving a Traffic and Highway Patrol vehicle was forced to brake harshly to avoid a head-on collision with the utility,” the police statement reads. “Police closed the M1 to northbound traffic and established a road block at Ewingsdale where the utility came to a stop. “The driver was placed under arrest and breath-tested at the scene, returning a positive reading. “He was taken to Byron Bay Police Station where he underwent a breath analysis, returning an alleged reading of 0.190. “The Queensland man was charged with drive in a manner dangerous to the public and high range PCA, and had his licence suspended.” He was granted bail to appear at Mullumbimby Local Court on Friday, September 29.

REGISTER OPEN ON-LIN FOR THE 2017 SEASON Grand Final Bound It was a tough start to the year for the Murwillumbah Colts JRLFC with the inundation of our playing fields, canteen & gear sheds by Cyclone Debbie, however with the support of the local and football communities, we have bounced back and have had a fantastic season on the field!

Tweed businesses clean up at awards

SEVERAL Tweed Shire businesses and the Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber have scooped a number of top accolades at the Northern Rivers Business Awards, which took place at Elements at Byron on Saturday, September 2. There were a total of five winners from the Tweed Shire including Yaru Water who picked up the 2017 Excellence in Social Enterprise Award and SAE Group who came away with two. “Yaru Water is an Australian family business specialising in more than just water, it tells an important cultural story whilst empowering disadvantaged Australian indigenous communities,” the judges’ comments said. “There is a considerable health gap existing between indigenous and nonindigenous Australians and addressing this is one of the organisation’s top priorities. “Yaru Water will continue to deliver projects to close the gap and deliver health improvements and opportunities amongst indigenous communities.” Another outstanding Tweed business was SAE Group (Solar, Air-conditioning and Electrical) who picked up two outstanding awards including 2017 Excellence in Sustainability and the 2017 Employer of Choice award. “SAE Group is one of the largest energy efficient companies on the Eastern Seaboard of Australia specialising in energy efficient technology such as solar power, airconditioning and electrical work,” the judges said. “The company constantly works

The Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber

to ensure that the business is environmentally sustainable and recently formed a “Green Team” group made up of volunteer members of their staff to ensure that everyone is well informed and use office recycling and energy usage appropriately. “SAE Group is a great example of how easy it can be to be and stay environmentally friendly, and have reduced their general wastage by impressive 70 per cent. In their comments for the Employer of Choice Award the judges said SAE Group provides excellent training and support for their staff. “The business ensures that all staff has the adequate training, supervision and support they need throughout the duration of their employment. “SAE Group supports and understands the importance of diversity in their business, and offer opportunities to people wanting experience in the industry or just those wanting to try something new.” Murwillumbah business Varela & Swift Pharmacy picked up the 2017 Excellence in Aged Care & Wellbeing award as the business continues to remain a strong advocate for preventative health and promoting

long term wellbeing. “Varela and Swift Pharmacy first began serving the Murwillumbah community more than thirty years ago building a legacy renowned for strong family values and personalised service,” the judging panel said. “The Varela and Swift family are strong advocates of preventative health, promoting long term wellbeing through training their staff to be active listeners in order meet customer’s needs.” Last but not least was the highly coveted 2017 Local Chamber of Commerce Award, which went to Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber. “During the past 12 months Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber have achieved significant membership growth and hold a number of successful events such as Santaland & Mindshop Excellence that enrich the business and local community,” the judges’ said. “It was in March this year when Murwillumbah & District Chamber showed their true strength when the region was heavily impacted by flooding."

Record flu cases prompts calls for infection control

A SURGE in influenza cases throughout the Northern Rivers and across NSW has prompted a call from NSW Shadow Health Minister Walt Secord urging the State Government to adopt greater infection control measures and campaigns to encourage greater flu prevention. As of Monday, September 8, the Northern Local Health District has reported 1,987 flu cases this year which compares to 963 in 2016. NSW Health has reported more than 73,300 confirmed influenza cases in 2017 across NSW, which is more than double the entire number of flu cases in 2016. It has also been revealed that more than 200 people have died after contracting the 2017 flu, including a number of aged care residents with existing health conditions. Mr Secord is urging the Berejiklian Government to investigate adopting North American-style infection control education campaigns, especially those used for schools, institutions and public venues such as tourist venues, sporting stadiums and shopping centres in preparation for the 2018 flu season. In the US, there is a three-step approach. This involves vaccinations for a wide range of the community; selfexclusion from work or school – especially for at least 24 hours after a fever as gone; and stepped up hygiene practices such as surface disinfection, sterile hand washes and personal etiquette measures to avoid spreading germs. “Put simply, there was an absolute death of education in NSW workplaces and schools,” Mr Secord said. Mr Secord said the unusually warm winter fooled the Berejiklian Government into a “business as usual approach” to infection control in NSW with thousands of NSW residents falling ill unnecessarily due to the worst flu season on record. “NSW was smashed by the flu with an entire state sneezing and coughing for the last seven weeks – and spreading the flu to even more of their friends and colleagues at school and at work,” Mr Secord said.

62nd Tweed Valley Banana Festival Queen crowning

Queen Billie Goodsell and Apex King Lucas Phillips

Miss Personality Tarra Swift Devine, Reigning Charity & Personality Charmaine VanDenBroek and Miss Tweed Valley Tessa McLeod

THE TWEED Valley Banana Queen Titles have been heralded a huge success with more than 140 guests in attendance at the Condong Bowls Club on Friday, September 8. The Tweed Valley Banana Queen Titles, along with the iconic Banana Festival, were recently handed over to the Apex Club of Murwillumbah who are hoping to build on past success and keep the festival alive. Apex member and event coordinator Carol Mudge told The Weekly that the festival was unlikely to go ahead in 2017, with the focus now on making 2018 the benchmark for future festivals. “It was a fabulous night and a fabulous event,” she said. Carol said the feedback and support from locals was overwhelming, with everyone in agreeance that the Apex Club was a good fit to take the festival on.

“We were so amazed by the support from the community and how happy they are to see the Banana Festival with Apex Club of Murwillumbah,” she said. Carol said the club had been hoping to get a festival together for 2017, but hurdles and clashing with the Murwillumbah Show, as well as delays to planning, had stalled progress. “We were hopeful of having the festival this year, but due to the length of time it takes to work with Tweed Shire Council on this, it looks like 2018 would be more practical,” she said. But there’s still a chance to see the Banana Float, Banana Jim and the 2017 Banana Queen, Billie Goodsell, during the Murwillumbah Show Grand Parade through the Murwillumbah CBD. “We had enquired about possibly having a reduced Banana Festival at the Murwillumbah

Showgrounds, but that was clashing with the show’s schedule,” Carol said. “We have also already applied to have the festival this year with Council, but there’s been a lot of time delays in Council getting back to us. “Council also said they would be allocating a Council Event Organiser to assist with the paperwork and tell us what’s required to keep the festival in-line with Council requirements and insurance.” Carol said the Apex Club was however “extremely honoured” to be offered to open the Murwillumbah Show Grand Parade with the Banana Festival Float including the Banana Queen and Banana Jim. “It was such an honour and it’s been a lifeline to keep the Banana Festival out there as we plan to make 2018 a great festival once again,” she said.

Celebrating Six Years

What’s GREAT this Month? fermented cabbage – as sauerkraut or in kimchi. I make lots while they are bountifully available and enjoy these throughout the year. They are so great for healthy gut biome too. Fresh local cabbages are available from the following market stalls: Bio Organic Farm, Cecil Farm, Everest Farm and Jumping Red Ant. Tip: always look for a cabbage that is heavy for its size and have tightly packed leaves – except for the Asian style cabbages that tend to be looser. Pork: if you love pork then you can’t do better than pork from All Natural Meat Company’s free range happy pigs. At their Doon Doon farm you can see the pigs roaming through their extensive paddocks of grass. They have a very free range life. These grass fed pigs are really well nurtured and the meat reflects this. All cuts are available every week.

School holiday activities

Wednesday, September 27 from 8am to 10am, come and play with the Tweed Regional Museum Murwillumbah at the Farmers’ Market. They are hosting some wonderful museum type activities including; • My Museum: arrange mini objects on plinths and write labels for your objects to create your own museum • Signed, Sealed, Delivered: write a letter or draw a picture, then stamp and post it to anywhere in Australia Wednesday, October 4: Paula La Belle from The Murwillumbah Community Centre in conjunction with Heather Tannock from the Belonging Project are collaborating on some children’s activities. They always come up with a wonderful mix of passive and active things

for the children to enjoy. Remember the ATM is at the market every week. Shoppers can now enjoy the convenience of an ATM onsite at the market.

Strawberries and blueberries are both so popular and so deliciously sweet at this time of year so when you visit the market this month don’t miss out on this spring treat. Beautiful just to graze on or simply delightful in so many recipes from adding colour contrast to double cream on a sponge cake or chopped up through a fruit salad. Who can resist. This month we are shining the spotlight on cabbage. Why? Well cabbages are in abundance now both red and green and because it is such a versatile and delicious veggie if prepared accentuating its very positive qualities. Now that the warmer weather has arrived we will see less cabbage so enjoy it while it lasts. The green cabbage is such a sweet veggie that it is perfect for salads and slaws, for stir-frying and it is delightful briefly steamed to retain is full flavour. I love streaming it with a big dab of butter on top - sublime. Red cabbage is also delicious thinly sliced in salads - how about a red cabbage slaw? It is also delicious cooked with caraway seeds and a splash of vinegar making a delicious and beautiful addition to any meal. Try braising red cabbage with apple and dried cranberries for a real treat and serve this with pork. Simply perfect. Links to these recipes are at the bottom of this month’s article. I also use both the red and green cabbages to make

whether we play to 100 or 1,000. Our last EP launch was in a small venue in which we had 130 people and it was a lot of fun, but playing to bigger crowds really gives you a lot of experience and teaches you a lot of stuff. Q. When was the band formed? A. About two or three years ago, Isaac joined later but Angelo and I started the band in high school under a different name. We just finished an EP “Blink or you’ll miss it” which is out now and our music is available online or on CD. We are already working on our next EP which may become a CD.

HAMPSTEAD

wi

A lonely man and woman in their later years meet, fall in love, and everyone lives happily ever after…This is in sum the storyline of HAMPSTEAD, but it is not as simple at it sounds. The plot is loosely based on the real life story of Harry Hallowes, played by Brendan Gleeson - a reclusive man also known as Harry the Hermit, who in 2007 claimed squatter’s rights to a patch of ground in London’s Hampstead Heath where he had been living in a self-made hut for many years and legally saw off some property developers who had tried to evict him. Emily is instead a fictional character - a recently widowed American woman who works in a charity second-hand store but lives in an expensive apartment across the street from Hampstead Heath. Her late husband had been cheating on her and squandered their life savings, but Emily doesn’t want to sell the property and downsize. She looks and dresses very much in the iconic style of the movie star Diane Keaton, and guess what: her character is played by Diane Keaton..! A chance sighting of the hermit’s rustic dwelling across the road elicits Emily’s curiosity and when she hears that the authorities want to evict him to build a luxury townhouse development, she resolves to fight with him, whether he likes it or not…

Kingy

Despite being a gentle bourgeois rags-to-tweed fairytale, the film is peppered with a good dose of scepticism about the whole issue of unaffordable properties that will resonate with many right now.

THINGS ARE hotting up with the passport to Airlie Beach competition heats which I have had the privilege of being a judge over the last four weeks and are now coming to a close. Four acts have been chosen for the local finals to be held at the Nimbin Bush Theatre on Saturday, September 30. The winning acts of each heat are as follows: Salt n Steel, Drift, Mecha Mecha and Blackboi who will be competing for the major prizes. I caught up with Mecha Mecha winners of the third heat. This three piece original outfit features Walter Webb on vocals and guitar, his brother Angelo Webb on drums and Isaac Vincent on bass. Mecha Mecha relishes in the power of heavy-hitting, blues-inspired grooves. Their chord progressions and melody lines reflect front man Walter’s childhood exposure to traditional Hungarian folk and gypsy music. The band strives to deliver a dynamic and exciting performance featuring tasteful displays of virtuosity, accompanied by the moving, elastic vocal melodies of lead singer Walter Webb. Q. How often do you rehearse? A. Not frequently enough, before every gig we try and get one in. Q. How determined are you to win the

battle of the bands? A. Every night I write down some realistic and some unrealistic goals one of them is to support a particularly famous band that I’m really fond of called Royal Blood when they come to Australia. The battle of the bands is one of the ways we can align to that particular goal. Playing at Airlie with Sneaky Sound System and GMT that’s certainly in line with getting a much bigger name. Q. Can you see yourselves playing to a large audience at Airlie Beach? A. That’s the goal to be playing consistently to audiences of 2,000 but well always put on a good show

CONCERT 2

A SPECIAL new pantomime created by students from St Joseph’s Primary School called “Little Red Drizabone” is set to dazzle audiences this Saturday, September 16, at The Gilbey Centre at Mt St Patrick College from 6pm. The production follows on from last year’s success with “Cinderella” by the St Joseph’s Theatre Company. As with all pantomimes, the audience are encouraged to sing and dance along and to interact with all the characters on stage. St Joseph’s Primary School, South Murwillumbah, was badly affected during the recent flood. Coordinator District 9640 Rotary Leadership Institute Simone Wong said the students had just been able to bounce back this term and are really looking forward to this event as a way of bringing the school community back together and providing some entertainment for everyone in the area. “Students were involved in both the performance and also creating the sets, props and costumes,” she said. “It’s run as a theatre company and everyone has input into the production, under the guidance of writer and director Michele Lourie and artist and costume designer, Kathy Egan. “Altogether, around 15 young people were involved.” Little Red Drizabone is an all Australian version of the classic fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood. “Even the wolf is a happy character in this version and children have been involved not

Lights on the Tweed at Seagulls

TWEED THEATRE’S next production at the Tweed Heads Civic Centre is “Dick Whittington and his Cat”. It is a traditional Pantomime, encouraging the audience to participate as often as possible with phrases like “Wake up Jack!”, “He’s behind you!”, “Oh no it isn’t!” and “Oh yes it is!” - or whatever the case may be. The story revolves around Dick Whittington (Mitchell Nelson) and his Cat, Tommy, (Audrey O’Donnell-Parr) who travel from Gloucester to London, seeking their fortune. There, they meet Alice Fitzwarren (Nikita Bazzana), who convinces her father Mr Fitzwarren (Greg O’Donnell) to give Dick a job. Enter the Rat Pack, lead by Queen Rattus (Jean Watson), who steal from Fitzwarren and see that Dick gets the blame. Dick and his Cat are banished from London. Aided and abetted by Mr Fitzwarren’s

cook, Sarah (Doug Williams) and her bumbling side-kick, Idle Jack (Chris Erickson), they all set sail aboard a ship manned by Captain Kettle (Ralph Naudi) and Bosun Shine (Christine Ray) and end up on an Island ruled by Sheikh Aboddi (Glenn Finkle). Dick and Tom rid the island of rats and are rewarded with a chest of gold. They return to London as heroes and Dick is rewarded by marrying Alice and becoming the Lord Mayor. Directed by Doug Williams, with Musical Direction by Kim Dobbie and Choreography by Lincoln Jamieson, this is a fun production for the entire family. Performance dates (all matinees at 2pm) are September 23, 24 & 30, October 1, 7 & 8. Bookings may be made on 1800 674 414; at either the Tweed or Murwillumbah Information Centres; online at www. tweedtheatre.com.au or at the door.

celebrations have been held in the north of the shire and the Seagulls Club and the adjacent Terranora Broadwater will provide a spectacular setting for Lights on the Tweed. “This year’s event will continue increased community involvement in staging the river celebrations. “The Tumbulgum community did a fantastic job in hosting the family event last year as part of the village’s 150th anniversary celebrations and this year Seagulls has taken a central organising role.” For more information and to get involved visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/HomeExpo or phone Council on: (02) 6670 2400 to sign up for the lantern parade.

Look out he’s behind you!

TWEED SHIRE residents are invited to enjoy the new Lights on the Tweed lantern festival and parade in conjunction with the Living for the Future Home Expo at Tweed Heads Seagulls Club on Saturday, September 16, from 3pm. The most popular elements of the River Festival, including the lantern parade and musical entertainment, have undergone a transformation this year as the Lights on the Tweed and incorporated into the annual Living for the Future Home Expo, bringing together two community events focused on lifestyle and sustainability. Locals and visitors are encouraged to totally immerse themselves in a family fun day by also helping to carry the stunning lanterns as well as creating their own lanterns. Once the sun sets, the banks of the Terranora Broadwater will be lit by the spectacular lantern parade which has been a feature of the Tweed River Festival in recent years. Residents are still be sought to assist with carrying the lanterns. “We are still looking for individuals, families and community groups to sign up to carry the illuminated native animals, giant musical instruments and the other amazing lanterns,” the Home Expo organiser and Council’s Sustainable Program Leader, Deb Firestone, said. “It’s an easy and fun way to be part of one of the most popular annual community events in the Tweed. “It’s three years since river festival

Featured Business

My name is Pauline McLeod and I am a dog trainer in the Murwillumbah area and surrounds. I work for an International Award Winning Certified Specialist Dog Training Company; Craig A Murray Dog Training who train assistance dogs, detection dogs, protection dogs for licensed Security Officers, and also train dogs for the community. As a trainer for Craig A Murray Dog Training I am currently running Puppy Classes, Basic Obedience Classes, Manners Classes, Agility Classes and Trick classes in Murwillumbah. Personally, I have had a love of animals and training them since I can remember. I have been heavily involved with

both dogs and horses all of my life and I have enjoyed every minute of it. I started to really enjoy training dogs specifically, when I started trick training and agility training. Trick training and Agility have assisted me in creating a fun and healthy relationship between myself and my dogs. I now compete in agility and train dogs for both myself and the community daily through my classes and private consultations. If you would like to come along to any classes or if you would like to know any more information, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to meeting you and your dog!

Three fall from balcony at Tweed Heads TWEED POLICE said they have established a crime scene after three people fell from a balcony at Seaview Street, Tweed Heads South, at 1am on Sunday, September 10. Emergency services were called after reports two men and a woman had fallen two-metres through a balcony rail and onto a concrete path and garden rocks below. “The 39-year-old woman suffered a broken wrist as well as lacerations and bruising to her torso. She was taken to Tweed Heads Hospital in a stable condition,” police said in a media statement. “Both men, one aged 29 and another whose age is unconfirmed, suffered head injuries and were taken to Gold Coast University Hospital. Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au/

Bowls Notes TWEED BYRON ladies, Cabarita’s Kate Potter and Sue Goode and Pottsville’s Coral Nathan and Trish Pollard, have now returned from the State Champion of Club Champions Pairs Championship and whilst not bringing home the bacon, they certainly delivered a grand performance. Kate and Sue’s first round against Gulgong resulted in the girls securing a comfy win. In a game that was close during the early ends, two big counts of five midway set up a strong lead for Caba. Gulgong fought back strongly but were not able to contain the Caba pair who continued on collecting further multiples. Round two against Randwick proved to be a tough stoush. Strong winds and a rink “under repair” with the entire middle section patched with loose soil had both teams straining to handle the difficult conditions. With 16 ends completed in this gruelling tussle, Randwick were just in front. The 17th end saw the teams even on 16-16. Last end, with Caba holding shot and only four bowls left to be delivered, Kate’s articulate “blocking” tactics kept the shot safe, allowing the girls to claim victory once again. Round three at Rydalmere and the girls were there in the mix of 32 teams still standing from the original field of 74. Up against Merrylands’ Val Smith (yes, Val Smith again) and her partner proved to be a hard task. Whilst the Caba duo took the lead early, Smith and Co caught up midway and took control. A valiant fight back from Kate and Sue resulted in the deficit being kept to a minimum as they

It’s all the refs fault

Manly and the reigning premiers Cronulla are gone and it’s all the ref’s fault if you ask the coach’s. It’s a disappointing situation that this seems to be the go to line after a loss. You rarely hear the coach saying the ref WON them the game. It’s happening from top to bottom. The footage for Peachey’s try showed he didn’t actually knock it on and the ref was correct. Cronulla had more than enough chances to win the game and were not good enough. The Cowboys were gallant and deserve their chance this week against a high flying Parramatta who nearly did enough to roll the juggernaut that is the Storm. The Broncos were miles off and will need a huge improvement this week

with Judy Tuckey closed in on Merrylands in the last few ends. Pottsville’s Coral Nathan and Trish Pollard struck hard rock in their first round as they faced off against Debbie Brien (State Coach and Rep) and her partner from St. Marys who removed the girls from the comp with a tidy margin. At long last WBNSW selectors have recognised that the Tweed Byron District has, in fact, some very fine bowlers. Hats off to Cabarita’s Sue Goode who has been invited by Beth Quinlan to join the squad of 24 contenders who will be vying for a place in the 12 member State Over 60s Side that goes to Adelaide in October. Sue came to the attention of State selectors during her dual with Val Smith in the recent semi-finals of the State C of CC Singles. As this goes to press, Sue will be at the Cabramatta trials and we wish her every success. On a sad note, Tweed Byron members are mourning the loss of Murwillumbah’s Patricia (Pat) Smith OBE who passed away last week. Pat was the ultimate champion in a sport she dearly loved and a wonderful ambassador for the game. Over the years Pat succeeded in all principles of the game, many times over, at all levels. Her incredible winning record in singles included 21 times at Club, six times at District, as well as G.C.D.L.B.A. C of CC singles three times and Australian C of CC singles as well. Pat also represented Australia in many International events, and as a member of the Women’s Fours team at the Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh in 1986, brought home Silver. Pat will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

to avoid Mad Monday. Somehow, they were 4 minutes from victory before Latrell Mitchell produced a bit of GI’esque magic. What a try it was! Three games decided by two points or less and one only sealed in the last few minutes, it was quality footy and this weekend will be no different. I’m tipping the Broncos and Parramatta to prevail. The junior semi finals were played at Cabarita on the weekend and were some quality matches played and some real nail biters. Well done to all officials involved and all the volunteers that continue to donate time every week to ensure our game is nurtured at a grass roots level. The Grand Finals are on at Mullumbimby this week and will all be quality games and I wish all those involved every success. The NRRRL grand final was won by Ballina in very

controversial circumstances depending on who you talk to. A send off, a sin bin and a huge penalty count made it near on impossible for Cudgen to defeat the powerhouse of Ballina who have now won four out of the last five finals. Caleb Ziebell justified his NRRRL player of the year award with a massive performance in a losing team to earn the man of the match award. Marist Brothers remained undefeated by beating Cudgen in reserve grade and Ballina made it 2/2 by overturning an 18 nil deficit to take victory in extra time. Byron Bay won the first ever Ladies League tag final against Marist Brothers. Well done to all involved. The Gold Coast Grand Finals will also be played at Burleigh on Sunday with Bilambil in the 19’s and former Mustangs Toby McIntosh playing for heavy favourites Burleigh against Runaway Bay.

SNAPPER ROCKS Surfrider Jaggar Bartholomew took out the blue ribbon under 18 boys division in the first round of the Queensland Junior Title last weekend. Jaggar, the son of 1978 World Champion, Wayne Rabbit Bartholomew was in great form, and looks to be on his way to a career path in surfing which was forged by his Dad and other Pro surfers back in the 1970s. “I’ve been doing a heap of training at the High Performance Centre which has helped with style and technique and really perfecting every maneuver. I’m off to the World Titles next week so this was a great warm up.” Rabbit took $15,000 in prize money during his World Title year in 1978, the amount of money in the sport is a little different now you might say. The young guns will now go into the final stop of the series on the Sunshine Coast in October as one of the favourites. Gold Coast, Sunday 10thth September, 2017 – Four individual champions have been crowned at the first event of the 2017 Woolworths Queensland Junior Titles presented by World Surfaris in pumping conditions on the Gold Coast. Jaggar Barthholomew (Coolangatta, QLD) took out the blue ribbon Under 18 Boy’s division and Piper Harrison (Coolangatta, QLD) was victorious in the Under 18 Girl’s division. With some extremely close heats throughout the day, the blue ribbon Under 18 Boy’s final was no exception and saw an exciting blow for blow battle between four of the best junior surfers in Australia. Jaggar Bartholomew (Coolangatta, QLD), Thomas Carvalho (Coolangatta, QLD), Kai Tandler (Coolangatta, QLD) and Alister Reginato (Alexandra Headland, QLD) each gave it their all until the final siren sounded, but it was Bartholomew who held his own to take the win. Bartholomew was on fire throughout the day and demonstrated an impressive combination of powerful rail work and electric fast snaps to claim a heat topping 7.10 to hold off the field. “I started off with a 6.00, then got a 7.00 but for the last eight minutes I was kinda freaking out having second priority with Thomas only needing a 6.00,” said Bartholomew.

“I’ve been doing a heap of training at the High Performance Centre which has helped with style and technique and really perfecting every maneuver. I’m off to the World Titles next week so this was a great warm up.” The Under 18 Girl’s final saw an outstanding performance from Coolangatta surfer and 2017 Queensland Open Women’s Champion Piper Harrison. With some huge forehand hacks on the prevailing right handers on offer, Harrison earned herself a heat topping 8.67 (out of a possible 10.00) and with a 7.17 also up her sleeve she put the field of contenders in a combination situation, where each surfer was left needing more than a perfect 10.00 ride to take the lead. “The waves were super fun today, there were some good double ups coming through. I’d love to be Queensland champ again this year but all the girls were ripping so we’ll just have to wait and see,” said Harrison. Piper’s little brother Marlon, also won the under 14’s boys at the Queensland grommet titles, maybe they could be the first ever brother and sister on tour together. You heard it here first! The young gun will now go into the final stop of the series on the Sunshine Coast in October as one of the favourites.

Trestles to Wrap Up by the Weekend

Looks like the Swatch and Hurley Pro’s will be wrapped up by the weekend. There have been some huge upsets in the early rounds, with Maatt Wilkinson, Owen Wright, and Joel Parkinson eliminated in the early rounds by wildcards, putting a dent in their World Title hopes. On the other side as we go to print Stephanie Gilmore is onto rounds 3 as is Mick Fanning, Bede Durbidge, and Josh Kerr. The swell is at last starting to pick up over in Trestles in the next few days, so it should make for some interesting competition. The northern beaches of the Gold Coast on a bad day has been looking better than Trestles has for the last few days. To check out all the action watch on Fox or online from about 1am Australian Eastern Standard Time… Catch you in the waves.

Vulcans fly high for another year

Solo Resource Recovery Under 14 Boys Lismore came out firing and kicked the first goal. This put the Vulcans on the back Coach Steve Grand Final match report The awesome Vulcans Under 14s stood tall in a nail biting Grand Final showdown against the old enemy, Byron, at Ballina on Sunday, September 10. Despite the trying, windy conditions, the match lived up to all expectations, in a dour, physical and high speed encounter. The reigning Vulcans Premiers jumped out of the blocks with some great penetrating footy, but the Byron’s defence was strong early. Byron counterattacked and managed to get some early scoring on the board. The gutsy Vulcans, led by Jed, Connor, Noah and Tommy out of the square kept the forward press going and it was trading goals for most of the first half, with Byron a couple ahead. After half-time the Vulcans pegged back the Byron advantage to a few points. Rock solid defence from our backs Ethan, Mateo, Cameron, Cooper, Oliver and Max held out Byron scoring, while our forwards Nic, Tallyn, Ben, Jordan, Luca, Jayden and Shaun were hitting the goal front hard. Our wingers were awesome with Jay and Luke breaking open the wide play. Despite some harsh umpiring decisions and strengthening headwind, the gutsy Vulcans threw everything at Byron in the last quarter. They drew within a few points but at the end Byron prevailed by eight points. That was a truly memorable and outstanding game that all will remember for a long time to come. Congratulations to Byron… Well done Vulcans who won the last two quarters. Great rivalry… Great sportsmanship.. Cant wait till next Season!

Smile Street Under 15 Girls Coach Andrew

It was the game of the year as far as the Vulcans Under 15 Girls were concerned. This was the last match remaining that they needed to win to remain undefeated champions of the league over two seasons and the pressure was immense.

foot, they went into quarter time trailing, a reality they had never experienced. In the second quarter Ella McKnight kicked three majors, but the game was still tight, Lismore were relentless in attack. Alex MacDonald pulling out the play of the day by marking a rocket ball overhead on the goal line that was a certain six pointer, instantly Alex drove the ball back into attack and the siren went. The third quarter was played out on either teams forward line without either team scoring a point. It was incredible quarter of attack and defence by both teams. Bella Kidman, Zali Zuschke, Jemima Hynes and Lana Lee-Johnson were relentless in their attack on the ball all day, stemming the Lismore attacks and rebounding the ball out to the wings for the run Georgia Hutton. Time and time again Lismore repelled the ball, Jazz Dodds and Hannah Black backing each other across the halfback, blocking the attacks and sending the ball back into attack for the Vulcans. In the final quarter Lismore kicked and early goal and there was only six points in it. The Vulcan’s counter-attacked, Jass MacDonald taking two brilliant marks in the forward line, though both times she was too far out to score. On the second repeat entry Kirra Lee-Johnson was fearless, locking the ball in the forward line against girls twice her size to create a stoppage. Jemima Forsyth who rucked tirelessly all day brought the ball to ground and Ciarn Larrescy broke away from the pack, gave herself some room and snapped the goal of the day over her shoulder. With 30 seconds remaining Lismore drove the ball into their forward line and snapped a freakish goal. But it was too late for them, the siren went and the Vulcan’s continued their two-year winning streak, a remarkable effort for any sporting team.

Thursday September 14- 2017

OUR LAST day of hockey for the 2017 season was certainly a cracker. Firstly, on Friday night the under 17 boys final between the undefeated Kingscliff side against Casurina. The Kingscliff side had played all Tweed teams and Gold Coast teams ending the season minor premiers. Kingscliff scored first then Casuarina got one back, the clincher came with 40 seconds on the clock, with a short corner by Casurina’s Oliver Conroy sealing the game for Casurina.

Sonia Phillips. The division one men’s final between Minor Premiers the Waratah Bobcats and Casuarina this year was going to be close game, which the Waratahs managed to win. The Waratahs defended with 11 behind the ball, which gave Casurina an advantage ball at which they scored from a penalty stroke after a poor tackle from Waratahs and this gave Casurina Joe Sandor score to go to the break 1/0 up if it was not for Waratahs goal keeper Zac Grace it would have been a lot more. Second half could not start any better for Waratahs as a goal to Gordon Grace in the first minute of the half. This goal put Casuarina on the back foot as Waratahs started to gain control which saw goals to Tim Willis from a short corner drag flick and then a field goal to Dewayne Newell from a Nicholas Butturini free hit. This was game over in another very entertaining game Players of the year was Waratah’s Lachlan O’Neil.

Although Murwillumbah continued to try and score goals, another two more goals to Casuarina Grace Young and Tara Fiztpatrick was heart breaking for Murwillumbah who did score one more by Melissa Johnston but on the fantastic Saturday afternoon Casurina were just to good and came away winners 7-3 Minor Premiers was the Waratah Falcons.

Free Consultation

Research shows that incorrect jaw development and crooked teeth are evident in children from as young as the age of 5. The causes of this can be the effects of the poor muscle habits of our lips, cheeks and tongues. Correction of these habits allows our jaws to develop correctly and our teeth to align naturally

into the correct position. Traditionally, children need to wait until all their adult teeth have erupted before commencing treatment to straighten teeth. Myobrace allows treatment to commence from as early as the age of 5. The Myobrace system works to actively change our

muscle habits by wearing a removable appliance that is worn for 1-2 hours per day and overnight whilst sleeping, as well as completing a series of activities over the course of treatment. At Smile Street we offer Myobrace Consultation for FREE! Book in to see how Myobrace can help you!
