This year’s exams include a total of 117 written papers and will finish on November 7. Spare a thought for the teachers as well who are also very nervous about the HSC exams and eager to see their students achieve their best.

HUNDREDS OF Tweed Shire year 12 students have sat down for the first week of Higher School Certificate (HSC) and the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) this week, with teachers encouraging students to “stay calm and do their best”. Much of the preparation throughout year 11 and the past school year has been focused on these final exams for senior students, which for many students could mean a fast track to university. The Weekly visited Mt Saint Patrick College on Wednesday this week to meet with students prior to their social science year 12 exams and

Store Your Energy with Solar Batteries

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.

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.

Wall scribbles costing ratepayers ILLEGAL GRAFFITI is on the rise across the Tweed Shire, especially in Murwillumbah during the past 12 months according to Tweed Shire Council, with graffiti removal taking a toll on ratepayers. The Queen Street carpark, which is owned by Council, has recently seen a rise in graffiti during the school holidays with several complaints raised by residents and local business owners. One business owner, who preferred not to be named, told The Weekly he was also concerned by an increasing number of skateboarders using the carpark with fears cars could be damaged. “This needs to be addressed,” the business owner said. “The carpark is a mess and the graffiti is getting out of control, time to clamp down, there’s a great skatepark down

the road.” The Weekly took several questions and concerns to Council for a response including what action has been taken to curb illegal graffiti. It should be noted that Murwillumbah and parts of the Tweed Shire have a range of graffiti art on public display by acclaimed spray-paint artists both local and international, with areas such as the Murwillumbah graffiti walk one such highlight. However, the issue is being raised against the flagrant misuse of spray paint on concrete walls that has irked residents and business owners. “Council attempted to remove the graffiti (Queen Street) with a highpressure cleaner but unfortunately it was unsuccessful,” a Council spokesperson said. “The graffiti paint has sunk into the concrete, so the entire area will require

painting.” “Regrettably graffiti has been on the increase in the shire over the past 12 months, costing the community greatly in graffiti removal.” Council said the issue at Queen Street carpark should be addressed within the next week. “This will be addressed over the next day or two (Wednesday, October 18), under Council protocol, graffiti on Council property in High Profile Areas will be acted on within two working days,” the Council spokesperson said. “All other Council property areas will be acted on within 10 working days of notification, subject to budget constraints.” Council said residents can report illegal graffiti or other maintenance related issues to Council through the Council’s Contact Centre by phone: (02) 6670 2400.

We will be doing this on an ongoing basis while this problem persists. “An important message that we would like to send out to the community is that some mosquito species breed in water-filled containers around your home, such as buckets, old tyres, poorly-aligned roof gutters and pot plant holders. “It is very important that you don’t let your home be a haven for mosquitoes and their larvae.” Mr Falkner provided a key list of things residents can do to limit mosquitoes: • Keep your yard well-maintained, mow lawns regularly, and limit areas of dense vegetation.

COUNCIL IS calling on residents to do their bit to reduce mosquito breeding habitats around their homes, following recent high tide and rainfall events across the Tweed Shire, which have created ideal conditions for mosquito breeding. Council’s Pest Management Supervisor Brian Falkner said the rains, coupled with high tides, have caused temporary pools of water which provide a great breeding habitat for mosquitoes. “This is a concern, given the potential of serious mosquito-borne infections, as well as the general nuisance factor from these biting insects,” Mr Falkner said. “As a matter of priority, Council has been carrying out mosquito larvae

West Kingscliff development flood risks

Kingscliff landowner and developer Stephen Segal’s Saturday talk-fest to inform Noble Park residents of his residential development plans for the south side of Turnock St and Kingfisher Circuit paid scant attention to the greatly increased flood risk to both current residents and those he plans to house in his wished-for, medium-rise unit blocks. Any flood in excess of this April’s, or the 2013 event, would almost certainly inundate the entire area between the Coast Road and the Shopping Centre. At a recent meeting between c o n c e r n e d re s i d e n t s o f t h e Kingfisher, Bellbird Drive and Monarch Drive precinct and Council, planners and engineers assured us that new and deeper drainage would be constructed; and that their latest flood modelling showed that in their 1 per cent (worst case) scenario, filling all the Gales-owned land would result in only a 3cm rise in flood level. This is the same modelling which failed to prevent the recent tidal contamination of the Bray Park Weir. They also mentioned plans for a new drainage canal from the north side of Turnock Street and to the east of Lorien Way, to parallel the existing one between Noble Park and Elrond Drive and Bellbird Drive. This would simply double the flood water coming from the River in a flood equal to or worse than last April’s. The fact is than when the Tweed River floods above existing drains and canals, as it did this year, all current and future drainage simply adds to the flood flow rather than reversing it. Past and present Council planners admit that had any of the West Kingscliff floodplain residential development been proposed in today’s planning environment they would never have been approved. Unfortunately past councils,

local apathy and some unusually acquiescent and unrepresentative community groups have resulted in high flood-risk areas being enshrined for “future urban use” in a succession of Locality Plans. It would be nice to think that with enough community pressure Tweed Shire Council and both the state and Federal MPs would prevail upon the NSW Government to resume all remaining privately owned “urban use” land in the flood-lands between the River and Kingscliff village. The only other alternative to safeguard both current and future residents, as is Council’s primary responsibility, would be to approach both State and Federal Governments for special funding for a levee bank to protect all land east of the Coast Road. Don’t hold your breath Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

Some facts about Adani

In a recent poll it was found that 77 per cent of Australians reject the Adani Carmichael Mine in Queensland. Of those polled an amazing number of 25 per cent had no knowledge of the Adani mine. When furnished with the details the poll result reached 77 per cent. For those of you that comprise the 25 per cent here are a few facts for you to ponder. The Adani company wants $900 million of your money to build a railway, and has been offered four years of royalty free extraction. That is, you will pay for the railway and they will get the coal for free. For 60 years they will have unlimited free access to groundwater resulting in farmers losing by Government admission at least 25 per cent of their available supplies. Queensland is already under drought conditions in that area. Coal more important than farmers? The company is under investigation for corruption, fraud, money laundering and tax evasion. In India Adani has already been prosecuted for illegal construction, and environmental destruction. Nine of the twenty Adani companies working in Australia are registered in the Cayman Islands, a notorious tax haven. Money gets sent there never to be seen again. So if any of you that were unaware of all this and think that it should be rejected get onto your State and Federal MPs and voice your concerns. Another thing that you can do is join movements that are working actively to have this mine rejected such as Stop Adani, Galilee Blockade or Get Up. Check out their websites and Google Adani Mine and prepare to be outraged. Gwyn Hooper, Uki

Let’s get rid of plastic bags

It seems that general realisation has begun to dawn that atmospheric carbon is not the main, or even a significant influence on climate change. Rather, changes to the earth’s axis tilt and its precession, or steady change of tilt, are really responsible. We cannot stop that. But eliminate all plastic from the environment - now that would do more for global health than any carbon emissions reduction schemes man can devise. We can begin by banning plastic shopping bags. Jim Berting, Murwillumbah

Equality is Council business

Marriage equality is a human rights issue, and not one which should be determined by personal bias. None of us have the right to decide who should love each other and how they should express their love. It is the responsibility of all governments (federal, state and local) to uphold freedom of choice and equal rights for all. The Tweed Shire Council is to be congratulated for taking a public stance in support of a vulnerable group within the local community for which it is responsible, in line with its stated ‘guiding principles’ to ‘act fairly, ethically and without bias’ and to ‘consider social justice principles’ when making decisions. It is unconscionable that the Federal Government has not displayed such responsibility and integrity when it chose to expose our LBGTIQ people to even more injustice and persecution than what they have already endured. This issue could have been resolved quickly and painlessly by allowing a free vote in parliament by our elected representatives. But instead these vulnerable disadvantaged citizens have been embroiled in a very public and often abusive, divisive, misinfor med debate because Malcolm Turnbull could not resolve the division within his own party. If governments focus more on promoting love and making decisions which embrace our differences, the world could become a better place free of discrimination, human suffering, poverty and war. Lyn Dickinson, Pottsville

Marriage equality concerns

I am disappointed with Labor’s stance calling for marriage equality. Marriage equality can be difficult enough for normal people without the problem of sexual deviation from the norm thrown into the equation. This is encouraging people with a different sexual orientation to have equality. Does this mean paedophiles will marry young children. Once passed will this allow people to marry their pet dog, cat or pig

because they too will want equality. Let’s not forget the tree huggers, will some cry for equality to marry their favourite tree. Has a can of worms been opened and human society will suffer because of this? If you are going to support this, stop calling it marriage. Call it what it is: homosexual and heterosexual relationships, it is not marriage. Legislate to allow this if you must and give them the right not to have children and legislate to protect the children that may become entwined in the relationship. I say again, legislate to protect the children. The Greens think this is the answer to the world’s population explosion by limiting the ability of people to have children. What if this works in reverse and through medical science we have miracle babies being created for them. Has any thought been given that there may be demand for surrogate mothers to carry the created babies for the parents. My thinking may be a bit off, but look at the soon to be incoming head of the Church of England Prince Charles. Did he not have a surrogate mother for his children. Whilst he married his surrogate he never gave up his mistress. Two wives, will that be the next norm under Labor? God help our children and grandchildren. JH King, Cudgen

We need buses not trains

Northern Rivers Rail Action Group’s transport forum (25/9/17 in Murwillumbah) was a misnomer. It was a rail only forum! We should lobby for improvement to our secondary road network, which serves our widespread community and which no local government can afford to do properly. Pressure State and Federal government members to give us commuter transport, such as small, frequent buses, so people can get to work, appointments, shopping and entertainment now. Will the rail route be used for some form of public transport ever again? Who knows but by the time governments decide, by the time the extensive repairs, as stated in the Pricewaterhouse Coopers 2004 feasibility study are completed (and imagine how much it’s deteriorated in the 13 years since and the costs increased) we will have been without improvements to the public transport system for years. 1. Preserve the entire route now. 2. Upgrade the local roads to pothole free, wider, straighter and safer. 3. Increase funding to Community Transport groups such as HART. 4. Provide incentives to get a fleet of small buses operating at decent

times. This will make local roads safer, take cars off the road and ease parking pressures in town, and around large employers such as the hospital and at the University. At the forum NRRAG and TOOT quoted prices for track repair from other rail tracks around Australia, without consideration of differing landforms, soil types and rainfall. We live in a high rainfall area with flood plains along much of the track. Therefore, higher repair and maintenance costs. NRRAG/TOOT ignore the fact that freight transport is dependent upon business needs. In the past, there was farming produce; dairy, bananas, as well as fuel and fly ash from Grafton for road construction. TOOT and NRRAG should be surveying bu s i n e s s e s t o d ay t o c l e a rly demonstrate what freight would be transported in 2017. I’m curious. Engineering objections require more than anecdotal chat and criticising previous feasibility studies and their estimates, cannot realistically be condemned without similar detailed and qualified surveys. The best thing for today is to preserve the 131 km corridor with binding legislation to keep it in public hands. This would prevent its disappearance like the Booyong to Ballina spur, closed in 1943. So NRRAG and TOOT if you don’t want to destroy any chance of ever getting train services to our region, preserve the rail route along its entire length and support local road improvements and the development of better local bus services now. Richard White, Murwillumbah

Thanks for supporting headspace day

On Monday, October 9 thousands of Australians across the country generously threw their support behind headspace day, kicking off National Mental Health Week. Research shows that 75 per cent of mental health issues emerge before the age of 25. By getting on top of issues early, the chances of recovery are greatly increased. On headspace day we asked all Australians to share their personal mental health tips, telling us how they take care of their mental health. We gathered thousands of ideas to show young people the many different ways to maintain a healthy headspace. Thank you to everyone who took part in headspace day, we look forward to your support in the future. Jason Trethowan, CEO headspace

Fight over West Kingscliff development Woman charged with defined what can be filled without causing impacts, and any development will have to comply with that. “So while flooding is a genuine concern, it is fully taken into account and no development will be allowed that would cause an impact.” Mr Segal said the other main concern from the community was in relation to koalas. “The other concern was koalas. I am not sure whether it is a genuine concern, or the people agitating about koalas are anti-development and were trying to disrupt the meeting,” he said. The point of contention is that Gales proposes to remove melaleuca trees in an ecologically significant area to create an urban rainforest and parklands that can be accessed by the public. “The Council was quoted as saying that the location of the melaleuca vegetation is a key asset of the Shire and formed a partial habitat are for the koala population,” Mr Segal said. “I am not sure what vegetation the Council is referring to, but I think Council’s vegetation has been wrong many time in the past. “My presentation gives the benefits of removing the Melaleuca - mainly an immediate start on the new road into Kingscliff, a showcase new residential development, and a unique urban rainforest and Parklands for the community to use and enjoy.” But Kingscliff resident Jeremy Cornford disagreed with Mr Segal and said he was concerned about flooding at the site. “At a recent meeting between concerned residents of the Kingfisher, Bellbird Drive and Monarch Drive precinct and Council, planners and engineers assured

us that new and deeper drainage would be constructed; and that their latest flood modelling showed that in their one per cent (worst case) scenario, filling all the Gales-owned land would result in only a 3cm rise in flood level,” he said. “This is the same modelling which failed to prevent the recent tidal contamination of the Bray Park Weir. “They also mentioned plans for a new drainage canal from the north side of Turnock Street and to the east of Lorien Way, to parallel the existing one between Noble Park and Elrond Drive and Bellbird Drive.

accessory to murder

POLICE HAVE charged a 27-year-old woman with being an accessory after the alleged murder of 31-yearold Ace Hall, who was fatally shot in Tweed Heads on Saturday, June 26. Police said the woman was extradited from Queensland in relation to the shooting death of Hall earlier this year. Police were called to the Ace Hall. Photo from social media Tweed Heads District Hospital around 4.30pm on Saturday, June 24, after receiving information a man, later identified as Ace Hall, suffered a gunshot wound. He died a short time later. Strike Force Varndell – a joint strike force between State Crime Command’s Homicide Squad, Tweed/Byron Local Area Command and Queensland Police – was established to investigate Mr Hall’s death. “On Monday, October 16, Queensland Police arrested a 27-year-old woman without incident,” a Police statement to the media said. “She appeared at Southport Magistrates Court and Strike Force detectives were granted extradition of the woman to NSW. “The woman was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station and charged with being an accessory after the fact of murder. “The woman was refused bail to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court today (Wednesday, October 18).” A 2017 white Holden Commodore station wagon was found by police at Steep Street, Tweed Heads, and police had been appealing for any information on the vehicle. Police had carried out a search warrant at the scene of the shooting, at Machinery Drive, Tweed Heads. Tweed Byron LAC Superintendent Wayne Starling addressed the media on Sunday, June 25, and said there was “no suggestion” that the shooting was related to bikie or criminal gang networks, despite several questions from reporters attempting to connect the shooting with known gangs and drug related activity. “There is no suggestions in this instance of bikie or gang activity,” Superintendent Starling said in June.

DIFFERING VIEWS on the future development of Kingscliff and Cudgen are dividing opinions this month with the latest meeting held by Gales Holdings to present its vision for the seaside town on Saturday, October 14. Gales Holdings, who own significant land parcels around Kingscliff and Cudgen, are proposing to remove a portion of melaleuca forest from Kingscliff, between Tweed Coast Road and the western Turnock Street roundabout at Elrond Drive, and develop the five-hectare site into a mixed housing development. But the proposal has drawn criticism from local residents who fear future flood events could impact neighbouring properties, as well as concerns for local wildlife who already suffer from fragmented environmental links. Gales Holdings currently has a development application before Council to fill their Kingscliff site above the one per cent flood level as well as re-routing drains, removal of vegetation including the melaleuca and re-vegetation to create parklands. The Kingscliff development has been years in the making, with development consent granted following a Land and Environment Court appeal in 2008. Gales Holdings Kingscliff director Stephen Segal told The Weekly he was keen to address concerns regarding the development. “At the open day there was great and sincere concern about filling making flooding worse,” Mr Segal said. “Council has done very extensive modelling, including allowance for Climate Change, and this has exactly

Chinderah waste station proposal raises questions RESIDENTS OF the Gateway Lifestyle Tweed Shores and Royal Pacific Caravan Parks at Chinderah are concerned about a proposed $2.2 million waste transfer station that has been recommended for approval. The Joint Regional Planning Panel met last night (Wednesday, October 18) where it was recommended that the waste transfer station be approved, with the outcome unknown at the time of print. However, several residents that live near the site have concerns following the Tweed flood and fears that the proposed facility, which is within 500 metres of residential areas, could risk further flood complications along with concerns around constant truck movements. The application to construct a waste transfer station, which also includes three warehouse units, was lodged with Tweed Shire Council in August 2016 by M&J Mitchell and is located at 16 Naru Street, on industrial-zoned land within the existing Chinderah Industrial Park. As previously reported by The Weekly, the facility would process mixed-waste materials from building yard and construction sites and it is estimated approximately 6,000 tonnes of waste and resources would be processed each year for recycling. The waste transfer station had initially proposed to receive 10,000 tonnes of waste per year which triggered the need for an Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) environment protection license. The EPA refused this licence due issues

around the waste management plan including the possibility of the facility inadvertently receiving toxic waste. There were also concerns around the impacts of flooding on waste stored within the building, further details on the acoustic fence and air quality impacts. However, the company has since revised the quantities of waste they process each year down to 6,000 tonnes per year which no longer requires EPA approval. The company said the facility will not accept any chemicals, asbestos or spoilable waste and to allay concerns around contamination, staff will be trained to look out for any toxic waste. The planned operating hours for the facility are from Monday to Friday from 7am to 6pm and Saturday from 7.30am to 5.30pm with an estimated 2.4 truck movements per hour. Council received 103 submissions against the development following the first public exhibition and 59 submissions during the second. Gateway Lifestyle Tweed Shores resident Philip Jeffels made a recent address during Council’s community access session and raised a range of concerns with the proposed waste transfer facility. “I am here today representing the residents of the Gateway Tweed Shores and Chinderah Lakes Lifestyle villages, these villages are over 50s communities where there are over 170 homes, housing some 330 permanent residents and this figure only takes into account those living in the

Gateway communities and not the wider community,� he said. Mr Jeffels said the residents object to the development proceeding and took particular note that the development application “makes no mention of the Gateway Tweed Shores complex which will be affected by this development�. “It only refers to caravan parks which most people would consider this means that there are mostly itinerant travellers and not residents in these areas,� he said. Mr Jeffels highlighted a range of concerns from the community including flooding, where the site was waist-deep in flood water during the Tweed flood. “Was the recent flood taken into account when doing the flood modelling?� he questioned. “The northwest corner of the proposed development has a tidal creek that runs in a westerly direction beside Gateway Tweed Shores and Chinderah Lakes and empties into the Tweed River, what controls will there be to stop any contamination of this creek? “It is noted that the document refers to this area as a Storm Water pit, however, this creek is part of the Riparian Ecosystem.� The development site is located on floodprone land and has a flood level of 3.1m

during the 1 per cent flood. However, the site is restricted to a maximum fill of 2.2m and the ground flood of the building will be built at 2.4m. “As the development is Industry in nature it is not considered additional filling to this level is required,� the Environmental Impact Statement reads. “Provisions will be provided for flood free storage and asset protection of the upper floor office areas.� To address noise concerns, the applicant has proposed to construct a 3.5m acoustic fence around part of the site. There were concerns that this fence would impede the flow of flood waters, however, an independent flood study found that the velocity of flood water at the site was low and would not cause further flooding. “The flood impact mapping confirms that the development including the fencing will have no significant impact on flood levels in the locality,� the report reads. “The area is very low velocity flood storage, meaning that the water will rise and fall around the development and the fencing will not have a damming effect. “This allays fears that the development will worsen flooding, particularly for the adjacent caravan park residents, who have relatively low flood immunity.�

Solar rebates are set to decrease

Australian households and businesses continue to embrace solar energy at a rapid pace in a bid to avoid rising electricity costs. The STC delivers real upfront savings to Aussies moving towards renewable energy and is not to be confused with the feed it tariff that is an ongoing discount determined by your electricity retailer (that’s a story for another day). So just what is an STC and why do you need them right now? Understanding the federal STC rebate The federal government currently offers a financial incentive designed to encourage Australian homes, businesses and community groups to take up solar in a bid to meet our renewable energy target by 2030. This incentive comes in the form of an STC (Small scale Technology Certificate) which is applied directly to the solar system at the time of installation. As the end user, you do not need to pay up front or claim any money back, you are not out of pocket, the incentive is built in to your upfront cost of your solar system.

Under the governments Renewable Energy Target scheme (RET), the current STC calculation will reduce again at the end of the year and will do so each year until it is phased out in 2030, so if you’ve been considering solar, now is the time to act. Today, the STC incentive for a 6.6kW system is just shy of $4,200.00, fast forward to January and the annualisation of the STC scheme has come into effect and this will have dropped significantly to around $3,890.00, dependant on the STC value, that’s a difference of $400 in a matter of months.

To secure the current STC price, it’s worth that noting your solar system must be installed and operational before the 31st of December, taking into account that solar just doesn’t happen overnight. By the time you’ve signed your contract, its then over to the supply authority to apply for a grid connect, and this can take anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks, and then there’s installation and finally operation. From the time you sign, to the time your STC’s take effect, you will need to allow a period of eight weeks, so don’t delay, ACT NOW and save yourself some serious money before the December 31st deadline.

Plans to expand Stotts Creek tip TWEED SHIRE Council is planning to expand the capacity of their Stotts Creek Landfill site due to changes which could prevent the exporting of waste outside of the Tweed Shire. Waste has been a hot topic this year with the introduction of Council’s new three-bin service and a ABC Four Corners report that exposed waste being transported across the border into Queensland and recycled glass being stockpiled in warehouses. Putrescible waste (solid waste that can decompose) produced in the Tweed is currently being exported to Ipswich for disposal, but under proposed changes to the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997, Council will not be able to send waste out of the shire if they are able to dispose of it in their own landfill sites. The plans, which closed for public comment yesterday (Wednesday, October 18), seek to expand the boundary of one of the landfill areas at Stotts Creek, and allow for this area to take putrescible waste. The area that currently takes putrescible waste at Stotts Creek only has another 12 months capacity, which is why Council has applied to expand their landfill capacity. The new landfill site is planned to have an area of more than 13,000 square metres and will be able to take a further ten years worth of waste. Council also owns another future landfill site on rural land one kilometre south of the Stotts Creek landfill, but will not be able to use this site for at least another five years due to works that need to be undertaken and waste disposal licensing. This landfill site will have a capacity of 750,000 cubic metres and will supply the Tweed “well into the future” according to Council. Council said their new three-bin service

had dramatically reduced the volume of putrescible waste being delivered to Stotts Creek and are waiting for approval to allow for a food and organics processing facility that would process around 20,000 tonnes of food and organic waste (green bin) per year. The proposal to expand the Stotts Creek landfill is supported by the EPA, who said in a letter in 2014, that in principle they do not raise any objections subject to meeting the design requirements for landfill cells. Council’s Coordinator Waste Management, Rod Dawson said the sending of the Tweed’s waste across the border is in line with NSW Protection of the Environment Operations Legislation and Local Government Act requirements to openly tender for providers. “We only received submissions from Queensland-based waste disposal sites to receive our waste and could therefore only accept one of those submissions,” he said. “Given our close proximity to the border, the disposal of waste in Queensland is our most cost-effective option. “Council is working on developing new waste disposal capacity at the Stotts Creek Recovery Centre, which will eventually receive our waste. “It also means our waste is going to is a state-of-the-art, best practice landfill with gas capture and power generation, which the Tweed landfill does not have.” A Council spokesperson told The Weekly earlier this year that recyclables collected from the yellow bin are being processed at a Chinderah facility. “Tweeds recyclables are collected by Solo and taken to a Material Recovery Facility at Chinderah which is owned by Polytrade,” the spokesperson said.

Youth employment boost needs local businesses involved YOUNG JOB seekers in the region are set to benefit from a new initiative from Cabarita Youth Service (CYS) designed to help those aged 15 and above into long-term employment. CYS has teamed up with Connect Northern Rivers and TAFE NSW Kingscliff for the new Community Connections program, which will see CYS approach local employers on behalf of job seekers according to the young person’s area of interest, with a view to complete 15 hours per week over ten weeks of unpaid employment. Anyone who fits the age criteria and is not currently working fulltime is eligible for the scheme,

with participants spending at least 10 hours per week with their host employer alongside attending TAFE NSW Kingscliff once a week for six weeks and working towards a Certificate. Throughout the program, CYS youth worker Chris Hitchcock, along with mentors from Connect Northern Rivers and TAFE NSW, will be on hand to offer support to both participants and employers. “Youth participants will finish the ten week program with a qualification from TAFE NSW, ten weeks on-the-job real experience, a reference from their employer, a certificate of completion from CYS along with an updated resume and enhanced skills on how to apply for

jobs, interview skills and ongoing support where needed,” CYS chairperson Kat Fermanis said. Tweed Shire Councillor James Owen said the Community Connections program represented an exciting opportunity for the region’s youth. “When I was young, finding a job was a daunting task,” he said. “I felt like I was different and wanted an employer to understand more about who I was and not just try to fit my ‘square peg’ into their ‘round hole’. “Community Connections is a great initiative and I’ll be working with CYS and local businesses to help this pilot become successful and hopefully we can expand it

Firefighting foam causes stir at border

INCREASED PUBLIC concern surrounding the use of firefighting chemicals known as poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) at the Gold Coast Airport has resulted in the Gold Coast City Council launching a targeted monitoring program and erecting signage warning residents not to enter Coolangatta Creek at Kirra Beach. The concerns were believed to be linked to the recent reporting of excessive PFAS use on Australian military bases as reported by the ABC’s Four Corners earlier this month. Several Tweed Shire residents had already raised concerns with the use of PFAS materials, which are an effective way of dousing flames from chemicals such as aviation fuel, however have been shown to have detrimental impacts on the environment. Airservices released the results from its seafood sampling program conducted in the Cobaki Broadwater adjacent to the Gold Coast Airport on Tuesday, March 21 2017. The results showed that in all seafood samples taken in late January 2017, concentrations of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) were below the detection limit for PFAS, meaning they were not detected in fish. “The testing was conducted by independent environmental consultant, GHD Pty Ltd in consultation with NSW Environment Protection Authority and Department of Primary Industries – Fisheries,” the report reads. Key conclusions from the GHD report included the risk to humans from consumption of fish, crustaceans and molluscs collected from Cobaki Broadwater is “negligible”. However, to find out more about the PFAS concerns at the Gold Coast Tweed Shire border, The Weekly contacted Airservices Australia to get further indications as to why signage and further testing was required. “Airservices is aware the Gold Coast City Council is conducting its own targeted monitoring program and has recently released the results of their sampling,” an Airservices spokesperson said. “Airservices notes the results have been characterised by the Council as very low and not of concern. “Airservices also notes the results are all below the Commonwealth Department of Health’s recreational water quality values which were specifically developed to be protective of human health and inform advice to the community. “The Council’s actions are a matter for the Council, but its recommendation for no direct water contact for recreation activities do not appear consistent with its characterisation of the results as very low and not of concern, nor does the recommendation reflect the health-based guidance values.” Airservices added that it had recently conducted its own investigations in areas surrounding Gold Coast Airport, including Coolangatta Creek, and the results were consistent with the Council’s results. “All of the results from our off airport testing of Coolangatta Creek were below the Commonwealth Department of Health recreational water value of 0.7 micrograms per litre,” the spokesperson said.

Council raises rainbow banner

TWEED SHIRE Council has erected a rainbow banner outside their Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah chambers and will hold a special screening of the film ‘Priscilla Queen of the Desert’ in Murwillumbah on Friday, October 27, to show their support for the ‘yes’ vote. Councillors voted at their September 21 Council Meeting to fly the rainbow flag or banner outside the Tweed and Murwillumbah Council chambers for the duration of the postal survey to show Council’s support to amend the Marriage Act to allow same-sex couples to marry. The motion also means that Council will promote their support for same-sex marriage through forums such as media and social media and will hold at least one Councillor led public function to promote the ‘Yes’ vote. A motion to rescind the decision from Councillor James Owen, who objected to Council taking a role in the debate, was lost at an Extraordinary Meeting. Mayor of Tweed, Councillor Katie Milne said all levels of government, business and the community had a role to play when it came to human rights.

“The same sex community really needs our help so it’s vital that you get your vote in by November 7,” Mayor Milne said. “As the Mayor I care deeply about our diverse community so I am so pleased we have been able to support this very important cause. “Some people have questioned whether Council should have made a stand on this issue, but the most important thing to me is who is hurting the most from this situation and to show compassion to those who are suffering. Deputy Mayor, Councillor Reece Byrnes said the placement of the banner was an important symbol along the path to equality. “It is especially important for LGBTQIA residents of our shire and their families,” Councillor Byrnes said. “As an organisation I believe it was important we stand with our LGBTQIA brothers and sisters, not only in the community but also with the many who work within our Council.” The special screening of ‘Priscilla’ will be held at Murwillumbah’s Regent Cinema on Friday, October 27 at 7pm. Entry is by donation, with funds going to youth mental health service, Headspace.

“Council has developed a database of genuine homeless people in consultation with John Lee and State agencies,” Mr Connell said. “This database will be used to guide Council rangers in their enforcement of the new signage “It is proposed to give these people a reasonable opportunity to find a more permanent form of housing through the assistance of the welfare agencies. “They will be advised that they cannot stay at Chinderah on a permanent basis. “With the guidance from Mr Lee, and continuing liaison between Council’s rangers, local police and state agencies, Council’s new compliance and enforcement actions aim to protect the wellbeing of the genuine homeless, while also enabling Council to take stricter action and fine those other visitors to the Chinderah Bay Drive area for any non-compliance with the new signage.”

CHINDERAH RESIDENTS have had another win in the fight to take back Chinderah Bay Drive with Tweed Shire Council announcing it will soon be erecting new signage along the foreshore that will strengthen Council’s enforcement rights. Council will also commence a new program of compliance and enforcement to address unauthorised camping and related anti-social activity. For several years Chinderah residents have raised concerns that unlawful camping was getting out of control along Chinderah Bay Drive with at times more than eight permanents and in some cases 40 parked vehicles, according to residents. The move follows a recent resolution of Tweed Shire Councillors for new signage to provide Council with a clearer and more legally defensible basis for restricting overnight stays by tourists in vehicles along the road reserve and public foreshore area. Council’s Acting General Manager, Vince Connell, said Council Rangers would carry out random inspections and fine anyone found to be in contravention of the new signage. “However, we are very mindful that a number of people choosing to stay overnight are genuinely homeless, and in need of support and assistance,” Mr Connell said. Councillors, Council staff and the Member for Tweed, Geoff Provest have met on a number of occasions with John Lee of You Have a Friend to develop strategies to assist genuine homeless people frequenting both the Chinderah Bay Drive and other public areas to find more permanent accommodation and access to state and federal services.

Bush Stone Curlew chick reunited with parents Call to display war items

TWEED SHIRE Councillor James Owen along with his son Jack, 11 and friend Riley, 11 have helped reunite a pair of rare Bush Stone Curlews parents with their lost chick, who became lost and was almost run over during the weekend deluge. Cr Owen captured the moment the Curlew chick was reunited with its father and sibling after becoming lost. “Yesterday morning Jack, Riley and I found the chick struggling in the road gutter near Salt,” Cr Owen posted on social media. “I just caught it out of the corner of my eye as we drove past – the torrential rain had reduced visibility and I almost didn’t see it. “Car tyres were coming within inches of it and its parents, who we saw earlier with two chicks, were nowhere to be seen. “I stopped the car and Jack and Riley leapt out in the rain and Jack gently picked up the little chick – he has handled birds before and was so calm and assured as he cradled it to keep it calm. “They called it Peck (because he kept

pecking Jack’s hand).” The group could not find the parents so they headed home and called Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (TVWC), who are the best source for wildlife assistance and related matters in the Tweed Shire (phone (02) 6672 4789). “I spoke to Jude who told me that Michelle Phillips was on her way. Jack and Riley made Peck comfortable in a warm, quiet, dark basket away from the dog,” Cr Owen said. “When Michelle arrived we took her to the spot we’d found Peck. Michelle has been looking after the Curlews for years (she is responsible for the signs that people get frustrated about) and knew where we would find the parents. “We saw the mother and then the father. The male Curlew shelters the chicks under his wings and as we approached him our hearts were in our mouths as we strained to see if the other chick was safely with him. “’I can see four legs!’ Michelle excitedly announced – we all breathed a big sigh of relief.” Michelle took the chick and placed it near the father and after a minute or so he collected his little one.

“Michelle hugged me, we all had lumps in our throat, I was super proud of Jack and Riley - they were pretty stoked too,” Cr Owen said. “Michelle is a tireless, devoted and hardworking volunteer with TVWC - a real advocate for our wildlife and she does a great job with little support.” Meanwhile Council is urging motorists in Salt Village to slow down and be extra vigilant when approaching the Bells Boulevard roundabout on Casuarina Way, where the resident Bush Stone-curlews have a new chick. This pair have lived in this spot for a number of years but unfortunately, their established breeding territory is dissected by Bells Boulevard, a busy road they need to cross twice each day to access their feeding and roosting sites. Residents can assist greatly by just slowing down when approaching the roundabout, to improve their chances of seeing the birds with enough time to stop if necessary. If you ever find one in trouble, or other stricken Tweed wildlife, please phone Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (02) 6672 4789.

Jack and Riley help keep the chick warm

Happy family are back together

THE BURRINGBAR RSL Sub-Branch has put the call out for locals to lend their war time memorabilia for a memorial wall in honour of the Shire’s ex-service personnel. The memorial wall at the Burringbar & District Sports Club will present the memorabilia to the public and help tell the stories of local service men and women. Burringbar RSL Sub-Branch members Phil Connor and Bernie Fisher said they wanted to encourage locals to bring out their war time memorabilia. “There are some amazing stories in some of the war time memorabilia that’s locked up across the Tweed Shire,” Mr Connor said. “We would love to display those items and share those stories with the community. “We’re especially keen on those locals from Burringbar, but all areas are welcome and each item will be handled with the upmost care and of course returned to families and contributors.” Memorabilia can be in the form of corps badges, shoulder flashes, medals as well as photos and details of service or stories. It should be noted that the display will be temporary and all items will be returned to their owners. To find out more about how to display your family's war history phone (02) 6677 1455 or 0418 408 786.

Rentals needed for flood victims Alyssa steps up for Schools Spectacular NORTH COAST Community Housing is making an urgent plea to property owners with homes to rent to struggling flood victims still reeling from the March/April Tweed Flood. John McKenna, CEO of North Coast Community Housing, said they are urgently looking for property owners with homes for rent in Lismore or Murwillumbah. Mr McKenna said that although the Tweed flood occurred seven months ago, there were many who are still struggling to rebuild their lives. “Several local organisations played a vital role in the immediate recovery efforts, including Vinnies, who provided food vouchers and Lifeline assisted with clothes and furniture,” he said. Across both Lismore and the Tweed Valley communities there are many families who are still homeless, sleeping on couches, staying in overcrowded family homes or temporary caravan park accommodation. North Coast Community Housing shared a positive story from Jeremy Marsh, who was reported on in local media after he was made homeless by the floods. However, Community Housing was recently able to find Mr Marsh a house and gifted him the furnishings he needed to make it a home, where his two children could stay with him. Mr Marsh said the new house and furniture meant a new start for his family. “Thank you from my heart you have made my week, month, year,” he said. Mr McKenna said North Coast Community Housing manages more than 900 social and affordable properties from its offices in Lismore, Grafton and Tweed Heads. North Coast Community Housing (NCCH), a not-for-profit organisation, has been providing community housing in northern NSW, since 1984. “We believe that everyone has the right

to live in safe, comfortable and affordable housing,” he said. “We are passionate about our role as the gateway for people who are most vulnerable and in need of our help. “We offer our tenants an exceptional service, which is professional, responsible and responsive to their individual needs.” North Coast Community Housing has also teamed up with Social Futures to secure leases for people who were flood affected. Funding has been provided by the Department of Family and Community Services (FACS) with a total of $1.85 million available over a three-year period. Property owners can receive market rent depending on location. Property owners with homes to lease are being urged to contact North Coast Community Housing on (02) 6627 5300 or email: info@ncchc.org.au to help house the remaining flood victims.

MURWILLUMBAH HIGH year nine student Alyssa Stavar has been selected to take part in this year’s Schools Spectacular in front of a crowd of thousands as one of the biggest student performances in the world. Alyssa has been dancing since she was five years old and started dancing with the Murwillumbah School of Dance and now trains with Lyons Studio in Banora Point. Murwillumbah High School teacher Kerri Turnbull said the school was extremely proud of Alyssa’s efforts after she successfully auditioned in Sydney. “Alyssa auditioned to be part of this year’s NSW public schools State Dance Ensemble,” she said. “She then took part in the dance training and rehearsal of contemporary choreography created for the students by Ashley Jones during four weekend workshops in Sydney.” The star dancer has already performed in a large-scale production having taken part in the State dance ensemble in the 2017 NSW Dance Festival “Heart” performance at the Everest Theatre at the Seymore Centre in

Sydney. Alyssa has a passion for dance and said she was looking forward to the Schools Spectacular in November and she also gave some timely advice for other up-and-coming dancers. “Learning to time manage is a must,” she said. “Dancing also requires long hours and sometimes doing the same thing over and over. “That’s why you need to be persistent and keep at it, plus it’s great for your memory and fitness.” The Schools Spectacular is an outstanding showcase of the talent in NSW public schools and is unequalled in the world with a 2700-strong choir, 2300 diverse dancers, an 80-piece symphony orchestra, a worldclass stage band and a huge number of outstanding solo performers. The Schools Spectacular will take place on Friday, November 24, and Saturday, November 25, at Sydney Olympic Park.

Tips for seeking enrolment

3. Ask Your Child What they Want While you can always reserve the right to make the final decision, it is often useful to ask your child what they want from a secondary school. Do they want to go to the same school as their friends? Are they willing to travel a bit

4. Think Long Term Decisions about secondary school should largely be made based on the opportunities your child will have when they reach the later years. It may be hard to know what is going to be the best long-term pathway for your child while they are still young but it is good to know what the options are. 5. Ask Around For Feedback School websites, publications and orientation days are designed to show each school in the most positive light, but this is unlikely to be a true indication of what happens on a day-to-day basis. Talk to friends and family to see if they have any feedback about each school on your short list. See if you can get in contact with parents whose children are currently at the school and ask some frank questions,

2. Make a Short List When looking at schools, the first thing to think about is which zone you fall into. There is no point getting your heart set on a school only to find out that you are not in the right zone for admission.

1. Start Early The earlier you start looking at possible schools, the more time you will have to do all the necessary research. You will also have more time to prepare your child for the transition and a higher likelihood of actually getting into the school that you want.

Member for Richmond Justine Elliot and Tweed Shire Deputy Mayor Reece Byrnes with Tweed Heads Men's Shed members

FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot and Tweed Shire Council Deputy Mayor Reece Byrnes officially opened the extension to the Tweed Heads Men’s Shed recently. The Tweed Heads Men’s Shed received $20,000 in Federal funding to extend their current shed under the Stronger Communities Programme. The Men’s Shed also contributed $58,000 towards the completion of the project. The extension includes new bays and a concrete slab and there’s also a metalwork area for fitting and turning, welding, metal fabrication and a finishing area for painting and storage. “The Tweed Heads Men’s Shed is the biggest shed in the local area growing rapidly from the 38 members it had in 2013 to its current membership of more than 60,” Mrs Elliot said. Mrs Elliot said the shed undertakes projects for local schools, childcare centres, community and social groups. “The shed also provides its members with real health outcomes through the social aspect of its operations,” she said. “This funding is part of the more than $2 billion that I’ve delivered for local roads, schools, health and community resources.”

TWEED LANDCARE Inc is celebrating 20 years of community involvement and caring for the natural environment of the Tweed with a Big Bus Trip on Sunday, October 22 and a workshop on Saturday, October 28. This year is an important milestone for Tweed Landcare Inc, which was formed as an incorporated group in 1997 to promote Landcare in the Tweed Valley. Today, Tweed Landcare is an umbrella organisation that helps the many small Landcare groups located from the coast to the forest within the Tweed shire. In the late 1990s there were around eight local Landcare groups, which has now expanded to 28 groups. Tweed Landcare Chairperson Joanna Gardner said the not-for-profit organisation is run by a volunteer committee and two part-time employees. “Throughout the years we have provided information, training and workshops on environmental and agricultural issues for our members and the public,” Ms Gardner said. “Tweed Landcare has earned an excellent reputation in overseeing new Environmental Projects funded through Federal, State and local governments. “Our role includes grant application, coordination and administration. “Some of the larger projects may take three to five years to complete and involve substantial amounts of money and accountability. “Tweed Landcare also provides advocacy and representation for our members, locality groups, landholders and the broader community.

More veggies means better teeth THE AUSTRALIAN Dental Association (ADA) is encouraging Tweed Shire residents to eat more vegetables as part of National Nutrition Week as vegetables are not only nutritious but are also good for your teeth. National Nutrition Week runs from Sunday, October 15 to Saturday, October 21, and this year’s theme is Try For Five, is encouraging Australians to increase their vegetable consumption to the recommended five serves per day. “Australians don’t realise that eating vegetables, alongside dairy foods such as milk and cheese, can help improve oral health,” Chairman of the ADA’s Oral Health Committee, Professor David Manton said. “Vegetables provide our bodies with important vitamins and minerals, diseasefighting antioxidants and gut-healthy fibre we all need to function and lead healthy

lives. Veggies can help prevent tooth decay, fight plaque and also help your breath stay fresh. “Tooth friendly vegetables that encourage chewing, such as celery, carrots and other crunchy veggies do not contribute to tooth decay or acid erosion of teeth. In fact, these vegetables stimulate the flow of saliva and can actually clean tooth surfaces, and provide a natural shine to your teeth. Saliva also helps neutralise the acid present in other foods and helps loosen food stuck on and between your teeth, reducing decay risk” said Professor Manton. “All Australians should use National Nutrition Week to ‘try for 5’ serves of vegetables each day. We believe this is a very achievable goal, considering that most Australians eat three meals-a-day.” For more information on National Nutrition Week, visit www.pickrightfeelbright.com or www.nutritionaustralia.org.

Walk for diversity set for Tweed and Cooly

THE DIVERSITY of the Tweed community will be celebrated at the inaugural Tweed/Cooly Diversity Walk, which will take place on Saturday, October 28 at Tweed Heads. The walk is organised by the Compass network, a team of community members and service providers founded by mental health service headspace Tweed Heads, working to support the LGBTIQAP+ community and young people in the Tweed and southern Gold Coast. Designed to celebrate individuality and promote social inclusion and cohesion, the day will commence at 11am at 1 Bay Street, Tweed Heads, with a traditional welcome and dancers. The walk will begin at 11.30am by heading up Wharf Street to the

Boundary Street roundabout, and finish overlooking the harbour at Chris Cunningham Park with a community barbecue and picnic with live music and art. The event, which is alcohol and drugfree, will conclude at 3pm. Organiser Claire Cottone of headspace Tweed Heads said the event aims to remedy an absence of community events that support marginalised groups in the region. “We noticed a lack of spaces and services specifically tailored for LGBTIQAP+ young people in this area, and formed the Compass network to help build a community that embraces and celebrates LGBTIQAP+ young people,” Ms Cottone told The Weekly. “The purpose of the walk is to provide visibility, social inclusion and

celebration for not only LGBTIQAP+ young people but all people. “The response from the community has been overwhelmingly positive, with lots of individuals and organisations seeing this as an important event for our community in moving forward. “Tweed Shire and the southern Gold Coast have an amazing diversity of people, including a vibrant and strong Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community. We’re hoping to see 200300 people at our inaugural event.” Participants are encouraged to “dress to express” and to bring placards and picnics, while anyone interested in helping to organise the event, performing, decorating, having a stall, driving a float or anything else should get in touch by calling (07) 5589 8700 or emailing ccottone@headspacetweed.org.au

ANYONE LOOKING for a taste of showjumping excellence ahead of the Murwillumbah Show should get along to the Tweed & District Showjumping Club’s Spring Showjumping Festival on the weekend of Saturday and Sunday, October 28-29. The second running of this annual event will take place at the Cabarita Beach Pony Club Grounds at Hastings Point and will feature 150 horses across two rings, jumping hurdles ranging in height from 70 centimetres to 1.3 metres, ridden by both novices and professionals. Cash prizes are on offer for each class, with Best Presented Horse and Rider awards being presented for all classes on the Saturday.

The event will feature more horses and showjumping events than will appear at the Murwillumbah Show, which takes place November 3-4, with a number of horses at the Festival set to go on to also appear at the Show. Club Secretary Lesley Lang said the Showjumping Spring Festival would attract 300 entries per day across the two day event. “We’re really to have good weather for the weekend event,” she said. “We would also like to thank our sponsors who have provided a collective amount of around $10,000 in prize money and prizes. “There will be food and a few trade stalls plus a professional equestrian photographer on site. “The range of jumps varies from

70cm to 1.30 metres in the feature events. “There’s also a speed championship on an official course with a height of 1.15 metres.” Entry is free, with the showjumping commencing at 8am on both Saturday and Sunday.

Tumbulgum pontoon back

A NEW gangway and floating pontoon was completed and reopened beside the boat ramp at Tumbulgum on Wednesday, October 18, replacing the old jetty that was damaged beyond repair during the Tweed floods. Mount Warning Tours co-owner Michael Simmons joined with Tumbulgum Community Association Inc president Jenny Kidd to officially open the pontoon, which now has larger piles. “This replaces the old jetty with a heritage style gangway, modern floating pontoon and jetty complex,” Mr Simmons said “Years of fundraising by Tumbulgum Community Chest and through stewardship and facilitation by Jenny and the Tumbulgum Community Association Inc has resulted in this much needed community asset to replace the old jetty, damaged beyond repair in the recent flooding.” Mrs Kidd said the new gangway and floating pontoon replaced a fixed timber jetty much loved by the community and used in many iconic Tweed photographs. “The old jetty was planned for replacement and had been closed since the March flood,” she said. “NSW Roads and Maritime Services were major funders of the project, with additional funds from the Tweed Shire Council and the community.” Mrs Kidd said the community worked with the Council on the conceptual design for the new structure to incorporate aesthetic features sympathetic to the old structure and its historic location. “The new structure has been received positively by community members watching its installation,” she said.

A poem by Paddy O’Brien Editor’s note: Award winning bush poet and comedian Paddy O’Brien recently visited The Weekly to share with readers one of his poems. Paddy said this particular poem was relevant to many national issues including the marriage equality postal survey. Below is an extract.

The Ironbark Man

By Paddy O’Brien It was the man from Ironbark Who lived a life so rough Rode his horse bare back into town To show that he was tough He’s a grazier of renown With cattle on his block He needed a good working dog To round up all his stock A man so mean and so hungry As everyone had said He saved on electricity Had dogs to warm his bed He borrowed neighbour’s newspapers And said “he had a need” To find himself a cattle dog A well-known canine breed “Pages” full of advertisements With “cattle pups for sale” Eight hundred, nine hundred dollars His bearded face grew pale And slowly as he turned the pages He yelled “I’m on my way” Dogs needing a good home, now folks The RSPCA He then tightened up his braces Clipped down his wallet tight And headed for the puppy shop A discount now insight “Good morning sir” as he entered Just take a browse around “The RSPCA” he smiled “The prices will be cheap With a good breeding cattle dog My cattle cheque I’ll keep.” She saw his face then lighten up We’ve breeds both large and small Fluffy ones you can comb and groom Corgies and greyhounds tall “Kelpie breed or border collie Is what I’m looking for” “But sir,” was her interjection

“Of course, you know there’s more?” “You see, it is our policy “Each pup will be de-sexed He dropped his chin, he rubbed his beard His facial muscled flexed “How dare you, those poor little pups “It’s wrong, at least to say `1“All I want is a breeding dog” And then he shook his head Wandered off to the barber shop “I’ll have a shave instead.” The barber was a transvestite With rings and colours curls Bushman yelled: “I want a barber” “Not bloke dressed up as girls” He thought, is this young fellow real Or is it just a lark? “There’s no mention in the bible, “Transvestites in the ark.” His heart was pumping faster now Cause he was next in line “I have what you came for sir? “And we’ll get on just fine.” The barber snapped the scissors shut “We don’t discriminate, “When I finish with you dear sir, “Let’s go out on a date?” A grunt was what the barber got “Things are different today, “It doesn’t worry me young man “If you’re prepared to pay.” So now he owns the barber shop With clients by the score He sold his farm, his cattle too His need for pups no more With high heel RM Williams roots He sports a navel ring He’s now a barber in his shop He’s the one dressed in bling Now when people drive through that town Or sit there in the park A sign that’s lit up like Christmas lights reads: “I’m still the man from Ironbark.”

Local Sounds by Chantal Waters

THERE’S A venue in Murwillumbah that has been building from strength to strength, since the recent devastating floods. The Condong Bowls Club holds regular jazz club nights with the next jazz night on Friday, October 27, featuring the winners of the Jazz section in the festival of performing arts and the Murwillumbaharians. Its $15 for Members and $20 for nonmembers but you’ll need to book in as seating is limited phone: (02) 6672 2238. Another event that is in the process of building up is the Let’s Dance Community to be held this Saturday, October 21. I spoke with Lets Dance co-ordinator Mic Cosmic to find out more: Q. What is the concept behind the Let’s Dance community? To create regular gatherings once a month with different theme nights and build up the dance community to be able to provide live music and entertainment

And to create a space where mature people can feel free to dance and socialise in a friendly accepting environment. Q. How long has the dance community been going? One year now, it all started when people were saying there’s really nowhere for us to go and have fun like the old days, so we decided to create the place. Q. What is the cost? Cost is $10 due to the support of the Bowls Blub and our team of volunteers. Profits go back in to upgrading and buying new equipment to improve the experience. We now have a 2000 watt sound system and the latest moving lights and lasers to create a real nightclub atmosphere. Q. Where is it held? At the Condong Bowls Club. We are planning a mega New Year’s Eve party, Keep in touch via our Facebook page ‘Let’s Dance community’ and message us your mobile number so we can invite you to future theme nights.

Acclaimed Conductor for Russian Delights

NORTHERN RIVERS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PROUDLY PRESENTS

Date: Time: Venue: Tickets:

Crushers keep the party going

THE NORTHERN Rivers Symphony Orchestra (NRSO) warmly welcomes guest conductor Neil Flottmann for the Russian Delights Concert on Sunday, October 29. Mr Flottmann started his music career as a flautist in the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, then went on to study conducting after obtaining the prestigious Willem van Otterloo scholarship. He has conducted Sydney, Melbourne, Queensland and Tasmanian Symphony Orchestras, as well as the ABC Sinfonia, the Queensland Philharmonic Orchestra and the Australian Ballet. To find out more about Mr Flottmann’s extraordinary talent the NRSO asked him some questions. Q: How did you happen to take up music as a profession? A: I was inspired by a number of music teachers, but two in particular: My teacher in junior high school was Clive Pascoe and my teacher in senior high was Brian Stacey. Both were inspirational conductors who showed me what you could achieve working with others to make music. Q: What/who inspired you to go from the security of a flute position with the QSO to the challenging position of Conductor? A: Orchestral playing was and still is a great love of mine, but it began as a means to an end. I recall asking one of my conducting mentors, Peter Seymour - director of the Sydney Philharmonic Choirs in the 1970s - , what I should do to further my aspirations and he replied “get experience in an orchestra”. From that point I set my sights on getting job in an orchestra. Q: What do you do full-time outside of music and how difficult is it to juggle your conducting engagements with this? A: My “day job” is Director of Creative Arts and Extra-Curricular Programs at West Moreton Anglican College, a large independent day school near Ipswich.

Q: Have you got any time for hobbies outside of all of this? A: I enjoy recreational road cycling when I get the opportunity and I love spending time with my family – two grown up daughters and twin 15-year-old boys. My wife is a musician as well, so we share a love of music but our time together is limited and therefore very precious. Q: Name one of your favourite orchestral pieces and why it’s your favourite. A: It tends to change according to what I am working on at the time. However, one enduring favourite is the seventh symphony of Antonin Dvořák. I conducted the work for the QLD Conservatorium Orchestra back in the late 1980s. It has an irrepressible rhythmic energy which, combined with Dvořák’s wonderful gift for melody, keeps me yearning for another opportunity to conduct it.

Olive Cotton Award goes to Michael Cook Join in Family Fun Day MICHAEL COOK’S close-up portrait Memories has been voted the public’s favourite in the Olive Cotton Award People’s Choice Award, with visitors describing it as a “profound” and “powerful” image. The well-known Sunshine Coast photographer was thrilled with the news and indicated he would be giving the $250 winner’s prize to Rosie, the subject of his black and white portrait. Visitors to the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre said the detailed portrait effectively captured Rosie’s character by starkly depicting what a number of voters described as her “life lines”. Cook described Rosie as a beautiful person who kindly introduced him to bush tucker and is everyone’s favourite grandmother in her community. “I wanted to capture her beauty physically and within. I think the photograph allows the viewer to not only see a lifetime of memories but to actually feel who she is beyond appearance,” he said. The People’s Choice Award, funded by the Friends of the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre Inc, helped wrap up this year’s Olive Cotton Award for photographic portraiture. Hundreds of visitors to the exhibition took the opportunity to vote for their favourite work from the 72 finalists, which were on display at the Tweed

Regional Gallery until October 8. Voting was close, with the portrait Trevor Jamieson by Brett CanetGibson of WA just 30 votes behind. The biennial competition reinforced its claim as Australia’s top photographic portraiture prize by attracting record entries this year. Entrants ranged from many high-profile photographers to a strong field of emerging artists, including the Olive Cotton Award’s youngest finalist, 12-year-old local Ari Messina. The end of this year’s exhibition also brought to a close a ‘selfie’ competition to promote the new social media pages for the Tweed Regional Gallery &

Margaret Olley Art Centre. Sherry Mackay won a Tweed Regional Gallery prize pack, featuring Margaret Olley merchandise, for snapping herself with her favourite portrait, featuring actor and comedian Bill Bailey. Sarah K8 @cloudcatcher15 chose Anita Modok’s portrait, in absentia: Judy Cassab’s bedroom, for her selfie on Instagram and won a $100 food and drinks voucher from the Gallery Cafe. She said the colours, composition and texture are “absolutely divine”. “I could totally move in and make it my own room!” she said.

BATTLE OF THE SEXES

78331

In the wake of the sexual harassment scandal that is presently enveloping Hollywood with the expose’ of the predatory attitude of men of power in the film industry, a movie like BATTLE OF THE SEXES is very timely. The term ‘battle of the sexes’ refers to a tennis match held in Houston in 1973 between 55-year-old Bobby Riggs and 29-year-old Billie Jean King, who in the 1970’s was the world’s no. 1 women’s tennis champion. The match attracted massive attention and was viewed by an estimated 90 million people worldwide. The movie is based on those events and stars Steve Carrel and Emma Stone. Carrel’s character serves as an almost clownish mouthpiece for oldschool chauvinist views, as Riggs goes on television to promote the match by saying that women belong in the kitchen or the bedroom, or on the tennis court as ball collectors. There’s not much actual gameplay in the movie, which is more about King’s determination to get equal rights for women players than the fate of any one match. King’s coming out occupies also a significant portion of the film, shining a light on the conservative mentality of the era. What makes BATTLE OF THE SEXES so compelling today isn’t how obsolete the era’s chauvinist attitudes were, but rather how little things have changed, both in sports and the world at large. As a serious character actor, Emma Stone went through an impressive physical transformation for this film, gaining a muscular 15 pounds through a rigid dietary and fitness plan - at one point she was deadlifting 185 pounds and doing push-ups with 50 pounds of weights on her back..!

THE REGENT is bringing back the internationally acclaimed musician, Joseph Tawadros, this time with his trio. At just 34 years of age, Joseph has established himself as one of the world’s leading oud (a short-neck lute-type instrument) performers and composers. A virtuoso of amazing diversity and sensitivity, Joseph continues to appear in concert halls worldwide dazzling audiences with his technique, his passionate, musicianship and his joyous style of performance. Always willing to push the boundaries and challenge traditional musical forms and rhythms, his efforts have led him to many unique collaborations. He has recorded 11 albums to date, winning a total of five ARIA awards. Joseph has toured extensively headlining in Europe, America, Asia and the Middle East and has collaborated with many Australian and international artists. He has also had guest appearances with the Sydney, Adelaide and Perth Symphony Orchestras. Other highlights include being in the top 20 of Sydney’s most influential people as well as being a finalist for Young Australian of the Year in 2013. Joseph will be joined on stage by his brother James on Egyptian percussion, and by one of Australia’s finest jazz

pianists, Matt McMahon. “One of the most impressive musicians to emerge in Australia with a dazzling technique dispensing hair raising tempos. His writing displays a real depth of emotion…reveling in a zest for life and celebration,” a review in The Australian was said.

Part two of Bertha’s life story: What does being deaf mean EDITOR’S NOTE: The Weekly recently had the pleasure of meeting Bertha Edie for her 100th birthday. Bertha has an extraordinary story to tell, although being born deaf makes her tale a difficult one to convey. Fortunately, her son Neville is apt in sign language and has taken a keen interest in writing and documenting his mother’s incredible life story. This week is part two of a four-part article series. To read the first part please visit The Weekly website under “archives” (www. tweedvalleyweekly.net.au) or phone (02) 6672 4443 for assistance. By Neville Sandon

BERTHA EDIE made the full use of her time at the Institute for the Deaf and Blind. But it meant moving from a love affair with rural life and riding horses. “I missed seeing the paddocks, the dirt roads, the swimming hole at the river and the mountain at the end of the farm,” she said in sign language. “There were cattle, sheep, chickens and pigs. I only had to walk out the back door and it was all there. The deaf school, right there in busy Newtown, was so very different. And all those deaf children, those blind children and some deaf, dumb and blind children!”

From a withdrawn isolated child “dropped off” and “abandoned” at the deaf school in 1924, Bertha emerged in 1934 confident, articulate, numerate and literate, due in large “to my favourite teacher, Miss Burns, a daughter of a Methodist Minister,” not only her teacher but “a life coach, a mentor and a loving maternal friend who taught me social graces, knitting, sewing, tennis, swimming, netball, hockey, cooking, writing and reading, and I loved to read books”. “Miss Burns arranged for me to be in involved in hearing sporting competitions like tennis and netball,” she said. But back in Comboyne the contrast couldn’t be greater, for example, the increasing flow of books Bertha brought back became the objects of sibling derision and reminders of who was smart as a whip. Bertha’s episodic holidays back on the farm were conflicted over the ten years of boarding school. Introduced to the world of reading and writing meant Bertha could finally communicate with ‘Daddy’ and ‘Mum’, sisters and the younger brothers. The notes she wrote to each one never got a response, except for brother Dick. Smiles greeted the notes, which were summarily placed in a pile in the lounge room. “Why was I dismissed with out any responses,” she said. In addition to this calamity was something over which Bertha, and all other deaf people, had no control was society’s use of language. At a time when word currency meant that deaf and dumb pointed to a person who is unable to hear and unable to speak, came the time when there was a horrible shift in meaning - deaf and dumb carried the idea of can’t hear and can’t think because too stupid. There was no impaired intelligence with this young deaf girl and time and time again, Bertha proved to be anything but. Without

communication to drill down, who would know? Family, teachers and friends, all claimed Bertha be one of the smartest, even to this day – confirmed at the 100th celebration. And here’s the rub – she along with brother Dick, were the only literate ones in the family of eight. Was this young Comboyne athlete and scholar dumb? Bertha recalls a time when “Mum, Edie Wilson, was taught to play the piano by a local pianist and I was named after her. The same music teacher also “taught” Bertha over many years during school holidays. “I remember Daddy just sitting there watching and listening then falling asleep,” she said. “I played by feel and when Gloria (Bertha’s second child) learnt to play, I stood beside the piano with my hands on the back checking and correcting her rhythm and timing – a human metronome. I played piano up to the Second World War, then stopped until Gloria learnt.” Graduating school with an apprenticeship

Come along to Sunnyfield’s Dine and Groove, designed to bring people together to enjoy some dancing and music.

in hairdressing and an armful of sporting cups, medals, other recognitions, literacy and a confidence that predates the 60s feminism, Bertha left the Institute demonstrating deprived of sound didn’t mean being deprived of a meaningful life. Bertha walked out of the deaf school gates and into the depression years. Bertha returned to Comboyne to sit out the economic and social calamity of the worldwide depression. However, ability combined with driving initiative and strong support from ‘Daddy’, Bertha set up a small hairdressing business at the back of her father’s butcher shop, and sold eggs around town, and in the family dairy separated cream from the milk and then sold it to the milk co-op. The town bank manager saw tenacity and talent and directed Bertha to some Comboyne shopkeepers to help out in preparing their tax statements. While the nation reeled under the absence of meaningful work, Bertha sheltered and saved more than her pennies from the economic storm. To be continued in next week’s edition.

OFFSHORE: well its not looking real good for offshore this weekend with wind and swell, but if you can get out there should be good kings around Tweed reefs, the backside of Kingy and off of Brunswick. Still you should find the odd snapper and mixed reefies on close reefs. Plastics are still catching the better fish at sunrise Dollies and the odd wahoo out on the 24’s, 36’s and the 50 fathoms off the Tweed. Trolled skirts are working better this week. Tweed and Byron for a tasty yellow speedster. Reports of Blue marlin, yellow fin, bass grouper and blue eye’s being caught out on the shelf and Tweed canyons. ESTUARY: will be the go to for most anglers this weekend. Jacks are especially reeking havoc with anglers. Smaller baits at night are working best this week. Biddies, boney bream, large herring and 15cm potties have been getting smashed with most anglers only stopping one out of three this week. A few being caught on hard bodies and plastics around the pontoons, but mostly in the middle of the day. Special mention to Currumbin and the Tweed which have all had action this week. Finding a sand bank out of the wind and having a whiting fish could be a great option this weekend. Yabbies, beach worms and blood worms are fishing really well. Special mention to Cobaki, back side of wave break, tipplers and the pin all producing fish this week.

Featured Business REIKI and HYPNOTHERAPY ~ A HOLISTIC APPROACH Albert Einstein said: “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used to create them”. Clinical Hypnotherapist, Reiki Master/Teacher & Metaphysician Create new, positive, permanent, life changing thought patterns with hypnosis. Can’t sleep? Desperate to quit smoking? Exasperated with your weight? Anxious? Needing self-esteem & confidence? Limited by fears & phobias? Let hypnotherapy change you and your life for good! OUR sub-conscious makes up 95-98% of our mind and contains a “mental movie” of everything that has happened in our lives. This is where our habits, behaviour, conditioning, feelings, fears, etc. based on our past experiences are stored. We unconsciously draw on those old, unwelcomed, ‘familiar’ beliefs & attitudes until new ones are introduced. This is where Hypnotherapy comes in! To help increase and rebalance your energy flow and release blockages, as well as promoting wellbeing on every level, a Reiki treatment may be just what you need! Michelle has dedicated the past 25 years of her life helping people, transform, attain personal growth and higher levels of self-awareness. Her understanding of metaphysics offers holistic insight, clarity and simplicity to seemingly complicated issues. Call today to make the change that heals.

History comes alive with museum reopening APPROXIMATELY 80 people attended the official reopening of the Tweed Regional Museum at Tweed Heads, on Sunday, October 15, as the museum celebrated the completion of its first stage of upgrades. The Tweed Heads Court House building, regarded as the centrepiece of the museum and the only original public building in Tweed Heads still in good condition, has been restored and upgraded to feature displays that provide an immersive experience of the building and surrounding area. Among the new installations is historic film footage, while the upgrade also included the construction of a new research room for the Tweed Heads Historical Society. Mayor of Tweed, Councillor Katie Milne, said the museum was vital to preserving the heritage of the region. “An appreciation of the history of this northern part of Tweed Shire, close to the mouth of the Tweed River and to our border with Queensland, is essential to understanding this Shire as a whole,” Ms Milne said. “As the Shire continues to grow, it becomes ever more important to offer residents, new and old, and visitors the opportunity to understand those things that have shaped this community and continue to shape it today.” Stage two of the museum’s upgrades will commence next year, and will include the restoration of other important parts of the museum including Boyd’s Shed and the Deckhouse. The museum is also introducing river tours in partnership with local business Tweed Endeavour Cruises, a new initiative designed to reflect the

Mayor of Tweed, Councillor Katie Milne; Tweed Heads Historical Society president Ross Johnson; Consultant curator Meg McKavanagh; Tweed Regional Museum director Judy Kean and Tweed Heads Historical Society life member Joan Smith

importance of the Tweed River in shaping the region’s development. “River transport was fundamental in forming this area and much of our history cannot be fully understood without taking to the water,” said museum director Judy Kean. Tweed Regional Museum is open for extended hours over the coming months, from 10am to 4pm on Sundays to Wednesdays.

with Judy Tuckey

Rain, rain due to stay, more cancellations on the way

WELL, IT JUST had to happen! Rain, rain and more rain! Whilst we needed the rain to recover from a long dry spell, we certainly didn’t need the winds that came with it. The annual T.B.D.W.B.A. District Shield, programmed to be contested at Ocean Shores on Monday, was cancelled due to inclement weather and will be rescheduled to a new date that will be advised in due course. On having a squiz at the long range forecast, it appears that the current rain pattern will continue for most of the remainder of this month and possibly impede on upcoming special events on the calendar. Byron Bay’s Open Two Bowl Triples are on the card for tomorrow, Friday 20th, so here’s the weather clears for that event. Following on – T.B.D.B.A. Charity Day is planned for October 29 at Cabarita and T.B.D.W.B.A. Veterans/Umpires Day is set for October 30 at Byron Bay. W.B.N.S.W. State Championships are now under way at

Taren Point. Following their success at District and Regional level, Cabarita’s Joy Lake (S), Valerie Dudley, Lois McLeod and Faye Turner will be in the mix of 16 finalists contesting the Senior Fours title beginning tomorrow. Then on Sunday 22nd Joy, Valerie and Faye will line up for the State Triples Championship with Lois nominated as their major cheer leader and water carrier. B.N.S.W. is also conducting their State Championships with the first games to commence at Ettalong tomorrow. Triples is the principal event of interest for Tweed Byron with the first round commencing Monday 23rd. Condong’s Michael Chilcott, Dave Cranwell and Warren Peart (S) qualified for this event following their success at District and Zone level and are listed to challenge Belrose in their first game. Best wishes to our District champions for every success at State level. See you on the greens. Good Bowling everyone.

Condong Trio off to State Titles – Michael Chilcott, David Cranwell and Warren Peart (S).

Tweed girls shine at National Championships

L-R Queensland Representatives Savannah Fitzpatrick, Trinity Ella, Jade Shultz, Fional Laybutt and Maddy Fitzpatrick at the National Hockey Championships in Perth

IN THE recent Sept / Oct school holidays the National u/13 girls and Open Womens Hockey championships were conducted in Perth. In the lead up to the tournament current Casuarina, Queensland and Australian representatives - Maddy and Savannah Fitzpatrick, spent many training sessions preparing the girls for the carnival. In the U/13’s Queensland selected two team - Cinders and Embers. Fiona

Laybutt was selected in the Embers team - they managed 6 wins, three draws and two losses to finish third overall. Trinity Ella and Jade Shultz were selected in the Cinders team that managed 8 wins and three draws, making them the National Champions for 2017. Jayde Shultz was also equal leading goal scorer for the Tournament. Running concurrently with the U/13 carnival was the Australian Hockey League (AHL) Carnival. Local girls Savannah and Maddy Fitzpatrick

played for the Queensland Scorchers. The Scorchers went through the carnival undefeated and reached the final playing Victoria. Queensland led the match 2 - 1 until in the final 35th second one the match Victoria scored an equaliser. The game then went into a ’shot out” were, unfortunately for Savannah and Maddy, Queensland were not able to prevail losing 3 - 1. The Tweed girls caught up in Perth and supported each other both on and off the field!

Tapped in to the waves With Terry 'Tappa’ Teece

Well at present it’s looking like a two way battle in both the men’s and women’s World Titles, with John John Florence and Jordy Smith fighting it out for the men’s title, and Tyler Wright and Sally Fitzgibbon duking it out for Women’s crown. The Women will not be surfing until November in Hawaii, but the men’s action continues in Portugal starting Friday night. There has been a lot of action in the Atlantic

Ocean, and organisers are expecting double overhead waves and pumping conditions. Although there are 8 surfers still in contention for the World Title mathematically, it is John John Florence who can win the World Title with a victory at Peniche, if Smith finishes worse than 5th. If that doesn’t happen the world title will go down to Pipeline, with Gabriel Medina, Matt Wilkinson, Owen Wright, Julian Wilson, Adriano DeSousa, and Filipe Toledo, depending on results in Portugal, could all be in contention. Medina with his win in France is looking the most likely to be shaking the tree, with Wilson, Toledo and DeSousa only a long shot and depending on other surfers results. Matt Wilkinson and Owen Wright are in with a shot, but you would have to think they will need to win in Portugal to be a chance. It should be a pretty awesome event at Supertubos, and the action starts around 5pm on Friday night. Sounds like my Friday night is sorted, lounge chair and Foxsports locked in! Vissla Pro Series Tweed Coast Pro on Again in January The WSL qualifying series will be coming to the Tweed Coast in January 31st to February 4th 2018. The Tweed Coast

Pro will have a men’s and women’s division, and if anything like last year’s event it will be a huge success. The WSL 100 gives up and coming pro surfers a chance to gather points to move up the ratings to qualify for the WSL 10,000 and 6,000 events. For a surfer to make the elite Championship Tour, a surfer needs to be in these events, and of course get good results. It’s unlikely we will see and of the top tier surfers in the event but we will see the best up and coming talent from Australia and overseas competing. With the likely venue of Cabarita Beach, it will be well worth getting down to the beach and checking out the action, with the Tweed Coast Pro the second of four events in the series. The first event will be a Maroubra, the third will be the Great Lakes Pro at Forster, and wrapping up with the Central Coast Pro at Avoca in March. The Tweed Coast Pro is a great chance for juniors and up and coming local heroes to have a crack at a solid field which will include many international surfers. More on the entrants later in the year.

AFTER A long absence the Coolangatta & Tweed Heads Golf Club event is now an annual fixture on the Ladbrokes PGA Pro-Am Series schedule. The Tweed Coast Mazda & Tweed Coast Nissan Coolangatta & Tweed Heads Golf Pro-Am has been contested around the River Course and has attracted a strong field of Professionals. In form Professional Tim Hart has fired a solid 7-under par 65 to secure his second win of the year and back to back victories on the Ladbrokes PGA Pro-Am Series. “I just kept it simple today”, said Hart. “My goal was to try not to make a bogey; I did on my second last hole though. I found the fairway bunker off the tee and as a result made bogey”. Hart’s round included birdies on the 1st, 5th, 6th, 11th, 16th and 18th holes and an eagle on the 441 meter, par 5, 14th hole. “I knocked it on two par 4’s today which helped my scoring and the eagle on the 14th hole really was a turning point in my round”, said Hart. The next best placed Professional finishing outright second was Anthony Quayle after a round of 6-under par 66. Sanctuary Cove based Quayle’s round included an eagle on the 463 meter, par 5, 1st hole and birdies on the 3rd, 8th, 9th to

finish the front 9, 5-under par 31. Further birdies on the 14th and 18th holes with just the lone bogey coming at the difficult 171 meter, par 3, 17th hole to close the back 9 in 1-under par 35. “The highlight of the round was the eagle I made down the first”, said Quayle. “It’s been a while since I’ve had an eagle, I hit a great drive off the tee and only had a wedge in which I hit to 8 foot and made the putt”. The Professionals will now have a break in the schedule ahead of the Southport ProAm to be played at the Southport Golf Club on Monday 30th October.

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!
